Are Very Active The Pioneers have held nu- merous affairs in the 'past, and every undertaking has been a complete succees. They have the reputation of being first-rate “fellows” when it comes to plan- ning a dance or showing some- one a good time. The Pioneers are one of the most active groups in the neigh- borhood. The trophies which are displayed in the Journal show window at present can cer- tify it. Moreover you may rest assured that they are j ust as good hosts as bali players.

The show will be held Friday, Dec. 4, at the K. of P. Ballroom at 1634 E. 55 Street. With every bout a headliner the fans will see plenty of action. There will be sluggers to appease the de- sire of the blood-thirsty fans, clever boxing and fast foot- work for those who prefer to see skilfull performers and the best of ali will be the excltmg grudge fight between the two local rivals, Komar and Mor- dus. At It Again For some ‘reason or other Ko¬ mar and Mordus are always dis puting as to who is the betcer man. To date Komar has the edge over Mordus in four meet- ings But the latter promises to tuni the tables in this fight. Komar states that he never did have any trouble \vith Mordus and the fight is “in the bag. The piain bout brings to- gether two boys that have earn- ed themselves a reputation in the war circle, Icky Mesnick, featherweight champ of Cleve¬ land and Teddy Smith a Golden Gloves star. This ought to be a humdinger. Local Lads to Display Wares Supporting the main bout are seven naturals. Outsanding among them is the tussle be- tween Joe Spaček, a šemi final¬ ist on the Golden Gloves tour- ne y and Johnny Hodak, who is t1ie Community Center champ in the 152 lb. class.

The Beacons also promise an added laughing attraction foi the evening. They will not dis- close what it is, being con- tent to teli ali inquirers to come to the dance and find out what it is. Will be Big Affair The annual dances of the Bea¬ cons, of which this one is the third, have ali been put into the records of the biggest successes, and the Beacons promise to- morrow’s affair will surpass ali the others. The Beacons want to see many Comrades, Strugglers, Loyalites, Progressives, New Eras and Zip- pers at their dance. They feel certain they will attend in large groups.

B. J. Pon¬ ikvar Distributes BY FRANK A. SODNIKAR Plans are rapidly being made for the Cleveland Journal Un- employed Benefit which will be held at the Slovene National Home in St. Clair avenue on Sunday, Jan. 17. The Benefit will be the only affair which will be conducted and sponsored entirely by the younger set of Slovenes. It will be the young people’s donation for relief of Unemployed Slo¬ venes. Program Not Complete As yet, the 'program, is not com¬ plete and not yet ready for pub- lication. Much work and effort is connected with building up a program which will be different than any ever presented in tbe Slovene metropolis. The talent on the bili will be first rate and in the most has not been seen often in the neighborhood. This is what will make the affair dif- ferent than any presented be¬ fore. Tickets Will Be Low The complete program will be announced in a few weeks. You may rest assured, however, that it will be a most surprising and rich program. The tickets for the Benefit will be on šale in the near future and will be priced low, in order to give everyone ah opportunity to attend this biggest and best show ever given at tbe Slovene National Home. Proceeds for Charity The Cleveland Journal is spon- soring and promoting this Ben¬ efit on Jan. 17. Ali finances, however, will be handled by the Unemployed Relief Committee and the Community Welfare Club, the two organizations who will receive proceeds from the affair. To date, many organizations have gone on record as favoring the movement and pledging their ful-hearted support. Congratulate Staff Individuals have also indorsed the affair whole-heartedly. The Office has received numerous let,- ters congratulating the staff for taking a leading part in the community’s charity program. We have received congratula- tions not only from Slovenes but (Continued on page two) MAKES DAYTON TEAM Received a postcard from “Po- zy” Pozelnik, former football star at Latin and captain of the Orel gym ciasses.

Imprcsses Children Dr. Mally illustrated his taxk with special slides and movies. He told in detail how diseast. spreads thru bad teeth, explain- ed the čare of teeth and in- formed the audience about the proper cure for poor teeth.

Approved by Share Holders The meeting was called by the directors of the Workmen’s Home, who are working to form a Slovene school in their in- stitution. Their action was ap¬ proved and recommended at the last share holders’ meet¬ ing. The gathering Tuesday was held to get the opinion of the general publie, to see how the people will feel about the idea and to have them express their ideas in connection with it. It appealed especially to parents of children who 'plan to enroll in the school. Need Has Been Felt The need for such a school has long been felt in the Col- linwood area. Many children from there have been coming to the Slovene National Home School in St. Clair avenue every Saturday morning to attend ciasses. Lately there has been considerable talking to start a School and, to satisfy the par- ties, the school will be started at Collinwood. This will not be the first time that a Slovene school will be started in the East Side. There have been several attempts made to start a school and at one time there was class held. But, through some reason, the project had been dropped every time.

BY FRANK A. SODNIKAR The Cleveland Journal Un- dernourishment Fund which takes čare of some 78 under¬ nourished and poor children at St. Vitus School received manj’ new donations, as it went into its fifth week. Donations this week included mostly clothes, although fam- ilies of the poor children re¬ ceived much food from Slo¬ vene farmers in the vicinity of Geneva and Madison, Ohio. Get Money From Fund The sisters received money this week from the $25,000 Fund created by Ex-Gov. Harry L. Davis, which is supervised bj the diocesan direetor of schools, Dr. John R. Hagan. The sisters used this money to buy the children things of which they are most in need. A large group of merchants donated clothes and shoes. Fr. Butala, 6408-10 St. Clair avenue gave a large supply of shoes. More New Donors Anton Anzlovar, 6202 St. Clair avenue, gave more clothes this week, although he gave last week also. Joseph Stamfel,6129 St. Clair avenue, John Gornik, 6217 St. Clair avenue and Benno B. Leustig, 6424 St. Clair avenue also joined the list of contri- butors-this week. Joe Metlika, grocer, East 55 street donated sugar, jam and bread. He will be a steady con- tributor. Staff Member Helps Miss Rose Kolar, 1021 East 61 street was the private party who gave clothes. Above ali these, Miss Frances T. Gerbec, editor of the Jour¬ nal section, “Tower o’ Tattles” donated a large supply of jelly and further helped the cause by going to the various mer¬ chants and getting them inter¬ ested in the movement. She plans to see ali the merchants and have them donate enough to give the poor children a Christmas party. The Cleve¬ land Journal, as well as the sisters, ask that she be received cordially by every merchant she visits. Need More Jelly The sisters further inform that they could use more jelly. Jelly bread is nourishing and Hhey would be glad to receive any amount that people would give. Give This Week! The children need ali the food or clothes that they can get. The greater major.iijr of the Slovene merchants have already come into line and given their share—gave more generously than for any other enterprise during this time. The rest who have not answered the call should do so this week— the need is great and it is their duty to see to it that the chil ¬ dren are cared for. WHO WILL BE NEXT?

GP.ILL 'Jubseription Rates: One year $2.00 Six Months: $1.00 Established May 24th, 1928 CLEVELAND, OHIO, FRIDAV, NOVEMBER 27, 1931 A SLOVENE ART SCHOOL How Progressive Cleveland really is in the interest of Slo- venes themselves and the progress which thcy are making in the interest of the Slovene language and other cultural activities may be gaged by the new institution at the National Home, the Slo¬ vene Art School.' To date ali of the fine arts are represented by institutions which exist among the Slovenes. There is the Slovene School for the study of language and literature; the Slovene Concert Orchestra for the furtherance of Slovene mušic and mušic in general and now the most daring and the crowning of the fine arts, pictorial representation by me_ans of art. Very recent in its inception it is nevertheless an excellent step in making the Slo¬ vene community in Cleveland complete in itself offering those things for the Slovenes which are not commonly offered to mem- bers of other nationality groups. Slovenes of Cleveland are fortunate in being able to get a recognized artist such as Gregory Perusek as the mentor for the school. His recognition by art critics in America makes it sure tjiat he is a real artist of whom the students and the Slovenes may be proud. OnIy one month or only one year is too iittle to foretell what progress will be made by the students. However it is the start and if only one real artist is discovered it will have justified the school and ali the eflort that has been expended in making it a real in¬ stitution. The hopes and the wish.es of the Cleveland Journal however does not stop at the initial class but they go further and visualize that the present Slovene Art School may be the beginning of a Slovene art school which will be able to compete with the large art schools of the country. If good encouragement is given both to the students and the heads that should be realized within the near future. On, Slovene Art School, may you prosper and develop into a grand and influential institution. Iucky vvinners. Those, winning door were: Mrs. August Haffner, firsv, Miss J. Savrich, second; MisS A.

Gifts of food, clothing, as well as actual cash, has been reported received by Sister M. Azveda, who is in charge of distributing the goods received to the most noteworthy cases. Because the Cleveland Journal has started the action of con- centrated help for the undernourished children with the Cleveland Journal Undernourishment Fund for St. Vitus children, it feels that it owes thanks to ali contributors to the fund or those who have helped in any way to make the children and through them the parents very happy for getting help in cases where other- wise there would not be any help. However, the need is not over -and the fGodstufls and other things will have to be constantly contributed so that the children will be helped steadily. There are others who would no doubt help in the action if they knew about it. We are making special appeal to the readers of the Cleveland Journal to get more and more people interested so that the individual contributions of each could be cut down materially for the individual but the sum total would be the same for the whole of the remaining school. In connection with the fund we would like to call attention to the merchants and others who are making willing contributions to the cause and have them be specially patronized whenever pos- sible. They deserve the help for patrons of their merchandise. It is the contributors who are making it possible for the Slovenes ,of Cleveland to get the reputation that they are the only ones who are taxing themselves to help the undernourished whereas other nationalities are waiting for outside help and thereby postponing chances for the children to ccme back to normal.

I X i i Dramatic Incidents of l. SLOVENE HISTORV Frank Sodnikar VERONICA DESENISKA Frederick, oldest son of Herman, ruler of the Del skji line and great friend of the Austrian emperor married in 1406, Elizabeth the only daughter 0 f C he Croat lord, Stefan Frankopan. This marriage was hailed as a great union, especially by the fathers 0 f the pair, who saw the amalgamation of two great powers in the nuptiai tie. But, it seems that the marriage was contracted only for the monetary part. No love ercisted bet\veen Frederick and Elizabeth. Their life v/as marked by continual quarrels, jealousies, accusations and un- faithfulness. Frederick opsnly declared that he loved Veronica Deseniška, from a very low noble rank. VVith this declaration, conditions between the pair beesme unbearable and by 1412 they separated. The religious parents, hov/ever, could not endure tile blot of a separation and for ten years sought to re, concile the two children. At a banquet, finally, when the subject was pleaded with Frederick, who quickly agreed to once more live with his wife. But the full meaning of Frederick’s quick consent eame upon the parents the following morning. They found Elizabeth dead in bed—with a knife in her bo- som. Everything pointed to Frederick as the killer. but since he was of noble birth, the affair was silenced. For two years, Herman was so angered with his son that he would not hear a word of him. Ho brooded the downfall of his crest and at every mishap blamed and cursed his son for the trouble. On a šummer day in 1424 the servants found him in an especially angry mood. The valet when asked denied ctrongly that it was an angry mood. Nothing but madness štručk his mas* ter. For did he not smash the marble family escuth- chean in-the hali? Did he not tear his hair? Did he not growl like a wolf ? This was caused, informed the secretary, by a note received from his son, informing that he had married Veronica. It was further reporter that Herman vowed to avenge the murder of his son’s first wife by killin, Veronica. It was further reported that Herman vowed The servants’ stories were substantiated by late an ernoon when Herman ordered his mercenaries be brought to him. “He will send them after Veronica” v/ord went around. With anxiety the soldiers appeared before their rag- ing master, who was stili in boiling fury and could hard).y breathe. “Go to my son’s castle and bring mc the siren Veronica who has bewitched my son,” he roared. “I want her tomorrow morning.”' But hearing of her father-in-law’s plot, Veronica ieft her newly acquired husband and fled into the for- ests, where she thought she could evade the guards. The soldiers pursued her zealously, spurred not a Iittle by the continuous fury of Herman and before many suns set, Veronica was before the dean of Uie Celskji line. “You are a witch, you bewitched my son,” \vas ali she heard from him as they dragged her to prison. Not a word or visit from anyone for an en tire week. She lay in prison, weakened day by day from lack of food and slow!.y realizing that she was to be starved to death. She had but one hope—had not her husband promised to free her from the clutches of his father? She was certain that he had succeeded, when late one night, two guards entered and v/ithout a v/ord lifted her weakened body and carried it through the halls and into, the open.

" The Inter-Frat basketeers Cir¬ cuit will open its third season of play Wednesday evening witn six teams ready to sv/ing into action; namely, the Champion Sokols, Silver Masks, Flashes, Comrades, Progressives and the George Washingtons. For two scasons the girls have been- .. great drawing card at the St. Clair Bath House, and nov/ again the girls will put on their weekly batftles to appease the desires of ali lovers of the in-- door šport. WiII the Sokols Rc^eatv The questiou Chat has been heard throughout the neighbor¬ hood for da.ys is “wln the Sokols again be the champions?” Weli, t;hey have the best chance. With a team that has been ke'pt in- tact for its third season, tht, Sokols will be hard to beat. Iv is reported that Molly Knaus, the star cqnter of last year’s title games, against the Silver Masks, is lost to the Gymnasts. Molly’s loss will be keenly felt, but we feel that the balanced effortg of “Lefty” Ann Gasparič, Klopec, Fay Slapar, “Vi” Ku- shlan and “Chris” Brezovar wilJ affset that handicap. The battle for the evernng brings together the tv/o rivals, the Champion Sokols and the rtmnerup Silver Masks. This game should be a “pippin” and the outeome of this tussle will have much to do in the future. games. If the Masks defeat th~ Sokols then the other clubs will not be so optomistic as to the results of their meeting. with the champions. Flashes Stronger Two clubs that have bolster- ed their lineups considerably are the Silver Masks and the K. S. K. J. Flashes. The latter club I ' , - has signed up some of the St. Ann stars; namely, “Curly” Su¬ hadolnik, Pate and Shenk. This addition to the already strong combination of “Jo” Laurich, P. Laurich, Rose Malovrh and Steiss makes the Flashes vcry powerful. The Flashes will get off to a flying start in the coming race as they draw the Comradea, against whom they should have no trouble. Masks Foiverful The Silver Mask:s had a good team last season and with the report that “Whitey” Doljak, formefly of he St. Anns has teamied up with them, it makes the Masks doubly strong. G. W.’s Out for First Win Of the weaker clubs the Com¬ rades loom to be the stronger as they report better lineups than - the Progressives or the George Washingtons. The Tret. Choppers have yet to win their first league game in two sea- sons, and they will be doomed as they stand up against the Progressives. Boys Loop to be Exciting Well the girls have a League and the boys, not to be outdone, have also formed one. They will play every Thursday eve, ning, giving the neighborhood fans the opportunity to watch both groups on successive eve- nings. The entrants in the boys’ division are the Loyalites, Pio¬ neers, Spartans, Comrades, Bet- sy Ross, Clairwoods, George Washingtons and the Progres¬ sives with a possibility that the Orels will also join. To date the strongest teams in action are the Loyalites, tha Pioneers, Progressives and che -Clairwoods. The Loyalites are remember- ed by their sensational playing in the S. N. P. J. tourney held at the Bath House last year. They turned :n vietories over the Comrades and the Progressives and were the Cleveland repre- sentatives in the State finals held here. They defeated ^hfc. Detroit finalists and then jour- ney.ed to Kenosha vvhere they lost out in the National Tou’ ney. They boast such stars as the Kuhel brothers, Opalich, Dlugoleski, Kavran and Mur- phy. The Progressives have a bunch of hustlers that have teamed together for the last A years. A snappy bunfch full of trouble. The Pioneers have such stars as Makovic, Barbič, Meehan, Spretnak, Habian and Anslov, to represent them in the eh - cuit. Of the rest of the clubs the writer hasn’t much to report on as he has to see them in ac¬ tion, but if you were to hear some the players talk you will know that the boys’ group will be plenty exciting. Mr. Paul J. Schneller was among the long list of Cleve- landers v/ho attended the No¬ tre Dame - Southern California football game at South bend, last Saturday. He returned to Cleveland by airplane.

A SHORT DISCOURSE ON CONFUCIOUS Trim... one is waiting for you at LOUIS ULE Barber Shop 6506 ST. CLAIR AVE. Confucius was one of the great intellects of the human race. He was one of the few who have devoted themselves to the moral betterment of their fellow beings. In his code of ethics, he has endeavored to infuse the principles of the most perfect standards of mo- rals in the character of the entire Chinese peoples and was successful in his' laudable ef- forts. „ 1 Of Chinese Race His ancdstors were celebrated statesmen. His father was one of the highest officers of the Kingdom of China. He was therefore not a Christian and also not of the Semitic race as is generally believed. In the time of Confucious, China was divided into many petty king- doms, whose rulers quarreled constantly. Tho he held many public positions, he retired to another part of the country be- cause of the disorders in the kingdom. He followed the life of a teacher, instructing men in simple moral truths by which he governed his own life. After manv wanderings, Confucious returned to his home province of Loo, poverty stricken, and spent his remaining years in editing the Sacred books of China and writing additions to them.. Influenced Chinese People Confucius was born about 551 B. C., and lived contemporan- eously with Pythagoras, Cyrus the Great and Parquins of Rome. About this time, the Jews returned from Babylon and Xerxes invaded Greece. His family is considered the oldest in the world except the Jewish nation who may be regarded as a single family descended from Abraham. Confucius has exert. ed greater influence on the minds of many millions of his countrymen by his writings than any other man who ever lived, excepting the writers of the Jewish and Christian scripture:?. The influence of Confucius has maintained in China that great reverence for parents, that ar- dent family affection, that love of order, that esteem for learn- ing and respect for literary mi® who lie at the foundations of ali the institutions of China. His practical code of morals which is studied by ali the learned and which embraces the sum of knowledge and the principle of government has ever since ex- erted an incalculable influence of the hundreds of millions o., human beings in China. Sayings of Confucius (Kung- fu-tse) “A gentleman considers what is right; the vulgar considers what will pay. “A gentleman is high-minaea but not proud, the vulgar are proud but not high-minded.” —J.

A Menu Suggestion Just a suggestion for your next card party— Nut Bread Sandwiches and Cocoa Arrange your slices of nut bread in a round, or oval shape (use cookie cutter). Spread the slice with butter, very generous- iy- If you are artistically inclined, you may garnish the slice with olives. Cut a pimento olive hor¬ izontal^. The two pieces may represent the eyes on the yel- low circle of nut bread. A little piece of the olive will represent the noše, and a longer band of it may be arranged as the mouth. Serve with cocoa. IN THE CULINARY DEPARTMENT Perhaps the home manager knows, better than anyone else, that her home, and especially her own department, the kitch- en, is a mirror of herself. If her dishes are always in disor- der, you will know that her mind is also in disorder, that everything is not normal there. Conversely, if her disposition consists of a healthy attitude toward life, her charming nook of a home will reflect the beau- ty of her being in it. And this is very true. MRS. ROSE M’DONOUGH ENTERTAINS A delicious dinner was served a the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Yakos, East 156th Street, on Sunday, Nov. 22, by Mrs. Rose McDonough, honoring the tenth wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Yakos and the confirmation of Miss Josephine Gorjanc.
