One hundred and thirteen singing societies participated in the con¬ cert, gathered from ali the villages of Slovenia. The affair was heralded ali over Europe and from ali parts people came to lis¬ ten to the singing. The Queen of Jugoslavia took the trouble to come, and expressed herself that never before had she seen such a touching manifestation. Polished Chorus The huge chorus was undeV the direction of Professor Bajuk, and the crtics lauded his work to the highest degree. The chorus was always in tune, and perform- ed as perfectly as a small chorus of ten. The concert was part of a week’s celebration on the event of the unveiling of the statue of the former king. Open air opera and open air drama were pre¬ sented during this time. Ali the proceedings, especially the large concert, will remain in the history of Slovene culture, re- corded vvith igolden letters. It was a great demonstration, showing to ali Europe the great love the Slo¬ vene has for his song. JOHN CARROLL POPULAR WITH SLOVENES Many Slovenes Registersed at John Carroll University for Fali Term W0N BY SLOVENE Miniature Rock Garden Gets Blue Ribbon for Noveity and Beauty On the heels of the first plače in the Plain Dealer Garden boa- test which was awarded to tho Suhadolnik estate last fall, Mr. Victor Suhadolnik, študent at Ohio S‘tate University, demonstra- ted that it was possible to build gardens which vvill win prizes. This was shown by the prize which he has received at the Geauga County Fair with a replica of the home and a garden done in min¬ iature style. At Geauga County Fair With only a plot ofdand 8x10 feet the exact replica with trees, ponds, and the rock garden has been reconstructed on a scale of an inch to 1 0 feet of the garden and everything so arranged that it looked like the original of the garden. It was on the show places on the Geauga County Fair with thousands, viewing the exhibit and showing a deep interest in the replica and miniature garden arrangement. It was the only rock garden exhibited and as such ali the more interesting. Receives Praise On the heels of the exhibition at the Geauga'County Fair many opportunities were given for an exhibition of the garden in other places which could not be filled because of a shortness ot time but which were nevertheless flat- tering for landscape artists of greater repute have not been given the same opportunities.

Every year the Jesuit college is getting more and more supporters among the Slovenes, this year much more so since it vvill soon open in its beautiful buildings on University Heights. Upper Class Men Among the returning students we find Mr. Anthony Urbas, who entered his sophomore year and Mr. Frank Mramor, who likewise will be a second year man this year. Both have in their fresh¬ man year won and promise to good work. Mr. Edward Kovačič is a senior at John Carroll and a member of the second string football team. He is expected to break into many games this year and shovv his flashy style of play, which was so much in evidence in his high school days at East High. He made his imtial appearance of the season in Carrolls opener in the Stadium with Adrian. From Newburgh we have three students listed at the West Side University. Chief among them is Mr. Anthony Rozman, who m the past year was very active with the John Carroll concerts. The other two savants are: Mr. Ho¬ čevar and Mr. Miller. Two Freshmen The two principle freshmen are Mr. John Pristov and Mr^ Law- rence Suhadolnik. w iH be identified as ‘BALKAN MOUNTAIN MEN” PROGRAM IS CHANGED With the return of New York to Eastern Standard Time, ali ra¬ dio programs are thrown into a muddle—some going on the air earlier, others later, while stili others on completely different stations. This is also true of the Jugoslav broadcast of the “Bal¬ kan Mountain Men” vvhich came through WTAM every Sunday afternoon thru the N. B. C. Net- vvork. Due to program, changes they have been taken off the air on Sunday afternoon and put on at 1 1 p. m., Sunday night. Un- fortunately the local outlet sta- tion WTAM will not carry the program, but if you try WJZ you will be sure to find the Jugoslav program.

The ability of Ohio build¬ ing and loan companies to pay more for money than competing institutions was occasioned by the fact that their funds were loaned on longtime mortgages and that such funds could be kept con- tantly employed while it was ne- cessary for other financial agen- cies to keep a goodly percentage of their resources liquid.

Not only beauty shoppe did we enter one fair day, but its exclusive dress shoppe elegantly and artistically furnished. The sofa, deep-cush- ioned carpeting impressed one of a luxurious bridal suite. A peek into one of the many individua’ dressing rooms revealed mirror ed walls and a large photograph of a beautiful bride. Bridal govvnr- and accessories were on displav here and there. Dresses for al! occasions were enthusiastically ad mired. GRADUATES RE ORGANIZA-! TION MEETING Newer Fields Indications now point to the fact that during the depression, Business is not as idle as it would seem to iirdicate on the surface of things. Everyone is doing their bit to make the depression cycle shorter and with more efficiency to take čare of the slack periods. Everyone is doing something. Railways operating on a lower gross, are shovving a prqportionately higher net than they have shown in many years, because they have learned to economize in empty haulage. Oil companies have been investigating new by- products with which to increase the revenue. The cotton industry is making studies and well-planned effort to recapture the market. Steel manufacturers are developing new products with which to increase output and sales for many years to come. It is a good sign that much more is being done by business, than to -vveather the depression. When the opportunity comes, it will be found that American business is prepared to take advantage of the broader opportunities. In order to organize a per- manent alumni, the St. Vitus Al- umni committee has called a meeting whereby ali classes of graduates are invited to attend. This meeting will be the first step in making the St. Vitus Alumni a lasting one. The meeting is to be held at the St. Vitus gym, Wednesday evening, October 7, at 7:30 p. m. — Jos. Jarc, Preš, MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT The Community Welfare Club will hold its regular monthly meeting Tuesday evening, Octo¬ ber 6, at Mervar’s Hall at 8i30 p. m. Members are urged to attend and make their report on the progress of the Charity Bali. This was Grdina shoppe. Our delightful curiosities came to an end only too soon after th charming Miss Vefa approached us with her winning personality. “We would like a prize for our Charity Bali. May we expecl one? ” “V/hy, of course. 1 shall con- fer with my sisters, Anna and Net tie.” The result was a large, eight ounce bottle of Gleaba s perfume of rare variety from France. There are many other prizes for the Charity Bali. The date of the Bali is not so far away, Saturday, October 24, at Slovene National Home. The Slovene Radio Club Ten Piece Augumented Orchestra will play under the direction of Dr. Wm. J. Lausche. Remember—it is a masquerade —a Charity Bali sponsored by the Community Welfare Club. —The Committee known economic fact that money loaned on mortgage security was not as liquid as funds loaned on commercial paper and similar- se curity. The thinking investor also realized that a financial institu tion paying the maximum rate of dividend and interest could not afford to keep any great propor- 'ion of its funds unemployed. Conditions Changed More than a year ago shake-up begart throughout the world which has increasingly disrupted ali economic forces. Curtailed production, lessened earning pow- er, unempIoyment, are factors which already had a deterring in¬ fluence on the influx of money into building and loan companies As conditions grew worse, ec¬ onomic factors which had much to do with the general depression gave way to a feeling of panic and hysteria. Then began a de- mand for funds predicted not on need, but on fear. Immune to “Raid”- itis Fortunate).y, the founding fathers of this movement were farseeing enough to provide a panacea for even this ill. Let me take you back historically to the not so far gone days when our forefathers in this very section, in times of peace and quiet, biiilt stockades for the protection of their possessions. For years the gates we.re left unclosed, but when danger threatened the bars were let down. I n order that then famjlies and their possessions might not be raided by forces detrimental to their interests, similar provisions were made by the founding fathers of the build¬ ing and loan movement, who built stockades to guard against hysteria, panic and conditions prompted by uncontrolled think- : ng. Several times in the history of a building and loan associauon in Ohio it has been necessary to lower the gates of ths stockade that the funds inside of these in stitutions might be properly pro- | tected and not subject to raid and loss. The most comforting thoughl n the minds of men in the con- :rol of building and loan compan¬ ies in the State is the fact that our institutions are not subject to “Raid ”-itis. No one of our pa- trons can have an undue advan¬ tage over another. The right to protect the savings of the public from the public is the most pro- vident provision that can be placed around a financial insti tution. Its exercise is in no way an admittance of weakness or a signal of distress. On the other hand, it is merely a necessary orecaution legalized by the laws under which our institutions oper¬ ete. Money Value Maintained Building and loan officers have a right to feel proud that they have maintained their commodity- maintenance is not an easy thing. Great governments have discov- ered this fact. England tried to maintain the priče of rubber and failed—-Chile tried to maintain the priče of coffee and failed— tile United States attempted to fix the priče of grain and failed. But building and loan associations in Ohio, through conservative and efficient management, have main¬ tained each of the $1,240,000,- 000 entrusted to their čare at 1 00 per cent. In addition to safety of prin¬ cipal, our institutions have main¬ tained their earnings to the point that their investors are receiving dividends and interest as usual. The great stock market holocaust of 1929 and 1930 is stili too fresh in the minds of thousands of Ohioans for them not to recog- nize the merit of our institutions. An investment in a building and loan company, whether it be measured by large amounts or small savings, remains a good im vestment as long as the principal is maintained and its earning pow- er assurred. From these stand- points today our record in unim- peachable. Cheerful Outlook Our outlook is cheerful.

FIGHT SHOW Knockouts Likelj to Fight Show Feature PIONEERS EOOE OILS IN FIFTEEN INNING FRAY BATTLERS OF REPUTE SLATED ON CARD Mismas - Kushlan Shindig to be Main Bout Judging by the reports and re- servations, there is to be a good representation of the leading prominently, political and social men at the Orel fight show, Thursday, October 8 th. The Pioneer C. F. U. indoor bali team also has made reserva- tfons for the show with the Orel bali players showing their good špirit and friendship despite th'- fact that both are battling the Interlodge championship. Just a few more days and the fans will be trotting along to the Slovene National Home on St Clair avenue to get their glimpse of two real bonafide champions, Ralph Phillips and Billy Birch. Both have rightly earned their titles in their respective divisions in the tournament known as the Gclden Gloves Tourney, sponsor- ed by the Plain Dealer. Ralph Phillips, a middleweight is to clash with Billv Gardner. Both boys in addition to being good boxers are possessors of hard socking rights. Billy Birch 118 Pound King The bantom~weight ruler Billy Birch is to have a several pound weight advantage over Johnny Woods, the rapid shooting right hander. He will find however, that Woods will be just as aggre- sive and possibly more so. Those who witnessed Woods fight Ber¬ nard last year, can expect this coming shindig to be just as good and that’s saying plenty. Icky Mesnick - Connie Harrie go should be interesting in the respect that both boys are near the top in their class. Either one or the other is the most ]ik.ely to be the new champ since Don Gonzales turned pro. Heavyweight to End in K. O. We have every reason to be- lieve that the heavyweight match which brings together the huge Goliath, K. O. Kotran and Ernie Young will end in a knockout. Both gladiators have plenty of punch and power. Kotran es- pecially is vvorking exceptionally hard because he realizes that a victory over the colored leading heavyweight in the State will plače him in the limelight. The odds are pn Young to win but Kotran and his two hundred pounds should give Young a good tussle. Kotran is courageous and tough. One of his early socks may make Young careful. The latter, al- powerful, is known to have curl- ed up when hit hard. Billy Burns Must Win A young fellovv, Billy Burns, who is aspiring to plače in the American team representing U. S. in the 01ympics in Los An¬ geles, this year, will have to run up his string of repeated vietories in order to qualify. Since Burns has already defeated most ali the better fighters the promoter felt it would be unwise to seleče a boxer whom Billy has already de¬ feated. In combing the gyfnna- siums he štručk upon Emil Mar- row. The latter was a tough hombre in days gone by. He is staging a comeback and feels that the ©nly way to decide whether he is in top form is to take on the best. And in Billy Burns it must be said he is picking a hard nut to crack. Anzig in Comeback In Collinwood, tow years ago, we had a State champion in Billy Anzig. The past two years, however, he decided to retire. But he has the urge to slam bang again and has decided to make his opening bow at the National Home before his friends. His op- ponent is to be Chuck Morrow. Can Lenarsic Repeat Kayo ? How does a fighter feel when facing a man who knocked him out at one time? Now Lenar- sie s opponent, Delgoudio, has his own versions about the mat- ter. He gives as his reason in being kayoed by Lenarsic, the last time, that he was not in the best of shape. He also points out that he had Lenarsic going in the forepart of the fight and it was only his inability to put on a fin- ishing spurt that robbed him of a kayo. He says this time he’s going to be in first class condi- tion and will win by a—knock¬ out. On the other hand Lenar¬ sic is more brief in his predictions. His only statement is that he’11 win the same way as he did on the last April show. Whičh those who were in attendance will re- member it was by a knockout. Pike - Rocco Klemm, yvho was to have been matched with Rocco, reported overvveight. A substitution brings another Slovene from Bonna avenue. His name is Pike. Pike is one of Gross’ boys from the 1 Oth Ward club. He is rugged and a fairly good boxer, He has been training strenuously and should give Rocco a tough battle. Brale vs Komar Collinvvood is to have another representative on the card in Red Brule. Red scored a knockout at the National Home in April. His opponent Komar, hovvever, will be a much tougher opponent. In Komar he will be meeting a veteran who is destined to turn Professional shortly. Neverthe- less, despite Brule s youth, we felt he is capable of taking čare of himself. His vvillingness,' rugged- ness, and walIop should overbal- ance Komar’s rather tactful box- ing, possibly unsteady him. Be- sides Brule is a little taller and has an advantage in reach. Ko¬ mar will have to bring ali his canny boxing ability into play to win. Heave Ho! Longshcremen “Let ’em have it” should be the prevailing cry when two care- free swinging welterweights, Fr. Blake (Slovene) and Marušič (STovak) mix it up. They are sluggers pure and simple, and neither cares about being drag- ged out. Each is willing to take a blow to get a pot shot( and they bled profuse!y—will be the after comment of their fight). Mordus - Dundee Mordus, a protege of the Nick A.. C. and Pozelnik A. C. will battle with Dundee, a west-side serapper. Mordus’ ability and condition depends upon the nur>*- ber of cue sticks and bovvling pins he handled in order to toughen his muscles. Anyway he swears that he discontinued smoking. Main Bout Franc Mismas alias Johan Ro- ramic-Koza, champion of Ribnica will defend his title against the man from down east (Collin- wood) A. R. Kushlan, better known as Loodvick Sopras. Tickets seli at 50c, 75c with reserved seats selling at $ 1 . 00 . On šale by Orel club members, and at Kushlan’s. 6417 St. Clair avenue. Fight patrons will be admitted to the dance in the lower hali right after the fight. The charge will be only ten cents and on!y those having fight stubs will be admitted.

Formerly at 6120 St. Clair Ave. t In the second annual Inter¬ lodge baseball series, the Pio neers and Orels staged one of the bitterest fought games on record. Playing before a crowd of some 2200 fans, both clubs battled fifteen innings before coming to a decision. Cloudy weather kept hundreds of more fans away. Made heavy favorites on their season’s record, the Pioneers, wbo had twice defeated the Orels found a young team full of de- termination, giving them a bitter fight. Makovic _ Jeray in Form Both club s moundsmen found the weather to their liking as they vvorked smoothly, inning after in¬ ning. And both pitchers found no fault in their fielder’s work, who fielded well, backing up both men with sensational work. As inning after inning sped by it was only a matter of which hurl¬ er would first weaken. Makovic Bests .Teray After fourteen innings of fast end furious playing with both clubs, nick and tuck, as to bat- ting, the strain of the game fell on Jeray, the Orel’s star hurler. Mowing the opposition down f nt fourteen frames is qqite different from a nine inning game. The extra inning contests keep you/ nerves on edge. And so it was. Starting the 1 5th inning found Makovic first up and he laid on one of Jeray’s fast ones for his second double of the fracas. A triple and two singles mixed with two passed balls, gave the Pio¬ neers a three run margin. jOrels Stage Rally With a hurler like Makovic to affront, three runs is. like a mil- lion. But the Orels fighting back hard, did what they could not do in the earlier innings. Successive singles by Orazem and F. Brancel gave the Gymnasts hope. On a sacrifice, Orazem scored and Brancel also scored on another. With two runs and two outs facing but one more batter, M'a- kovic vvorked hard and forced the hitter to send an easy fly to his catcher. Orels Fail in Pinches The Orels had better scoring opportunities than the Pioneers but lacked the punch to make good. They had the bases load- ed in the third frame but Mako¬ vic was too hard to hit safely, Poor base running was another fault. Jeray was in form as no Pioneer man reached third until the final frame. Pioneers Display Champ Form The Pioneers have one of the best teams in the two seasons of Interlodge. Their men are not of star quality, but they make up for this by playing a cool and confident game. Makovic, their pitching ace, is one of the main assets. And with a hurler like him to vvork behind, his mates gave him vvondeiful support. The Pioneers batting is not as strong as some of the other clubs, but they have had a knack of mak- ing their hits count. Although they hit Jeray for 6 hits, during the seoreless frames, his vvork was rather sensationa\, as he kept himself clear. But in the last frame the Pioneers touch¬ ed him for four hits and three runs vvhich was enough to win. Barbič Wields Heavy Bat According to his scorer, Bar¬ bič of the Pioneers, had yet to get a hit off Jeray. Although they had clashed thrice, Barbič, cap- tain of his team, went hitlejss each game. But in this series’ tussle he found Jaray rather easy touching him for four hits, ali singles, Habian plouted a triple that figured in the final inning scoring.. Makovic was touched for ten hits, three coming in the last frame. He issued one base i bali and fanned eight. His first double in the third frame was the first hit of the game and his second double started the scoring in the fifteenth frame. Ha¬ bian catching was credited with 4 putouts. Yurkovich at ITrst received 1 5 putouts. Barbič also starred on the field, handling eight chances. Beljan, at third, was also busy with nine chances. Marinko Stars Afield Diminutive Marinko again dis- played his stellar performances of the past as he handled five hard choices on third. He also crash- ed out two safeties. J. Kostjansek probably set a record catching, as he received a total of 21 putouts. On first, F. Brancel also was quite active as he fielded 12 chances. Orazem clouted tvvo safeties as did P. Kostjansek. Jeray was nicked for ten bingles. He allowed one base on balls and štručk out eleven.

There seems to be a tendencjr to patronize suits, and one of the outstanding velvet models vvas a three piece suit, a black trans¬ parent velvet skirt with long sleeved jacket and a white trans¬ parent long-sleeved blouse. • simply but elegantly styled. The proper accessories, a vel¬ vet hat, black satin or soft kid slippers together with v/hite kid gloves would complete the smart ensemble admirably.

Refresh¬ ments will be served' and, of course, there will be prizes for the winners. The bids are selling for 50c. There are many card parties, but the reason that this one will be one of the season’s outstand¬ ing events is that the ladies have assigned the evening entertain- ment to carry a double purpose, chiefly to have a good time, and to use the proceeds of the affair for the purchase of school books for the poor scholars of St. Mary’s. It is a worthy cause, yes deed, and you are guaranteed good time, besides! m- P,ODPADEC SISTERS DANCE AT SLOVENE AUDITORIUM The very popularly acclaimed dancers, the Podpadec sisters, will feature a “Dance Revievv” Wed- nesday evening, October 14 at the Slovene Auditorium, 6409 St. Clair avenue.

The two groups are very ac- tive, well-known, and of course, well liked. The affair will mark another success for them, un- doubtedly. AT NIAGARA We have received a postal from Messrs. Edward Kovač and Al Sajovic vvho have recently “vvheeled” to Niagara Falls. The report: “Everything under control.” The K. K. K. cottage at Men¬ tor, Ohio, was the scene last Sat- urday evening of a surprise “mock” nuptial celebration to honor the first wedding anniver- sary of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Turk. The lovely and blushing bride made a very festive picture in her veil of lace curtain, carrying a bridal bouquet of white paper, as she was led from the kitchen to the scene of ceremony, the living room, festooned with gar- lands and streamers of some more white paper. She hurriedly chose Miss Dan¬ iela Otoničar as Tier maid of hon¬ or, vvho was attired in a pastel voile and who wore a corsage of. well, pink paper. Misses Rose Lausche, Rose Skebe, Mary Ferlin, Mae Bom- bach and Frances Walland were gowned in pastel voile and wore some pink paper corsages. We almost forgot the groom. Well, he was there, too, and it is rumored he didn’t look near as timid and sheepish as he s&mild have. The very elegant personage, the auspicious, not too ascetic, yet more felicitious and at that time hilariously inclined, the very august A. R. Kushlan himself, with a big white collar and a big book, performed the first anni- versary nuptial rites, in his usual grandiose manner, lifting his eye- brows, tvvitching his ears, and coughing a little. Understood. The organ mušic was repre- sented by a strange current of high-pitched; vocal ensemible in the audience. A reception was held for sev- enty-five guests and the hostesses served barbecue sandwiches with relish, potica, white cocoanut cake and refreshments. PromptIy at midnight, the wedding ceremonies were again resumed and we are vvondering if the bride’s thoughts wandered not so far away, back to her real wedding day. . . The ceremonies did not ex- clude the popular pillovv dance, and the accordion p!ayer was kept busy until, oh vvelll, why mention it. Physical prowess has continu- ally gained the attention of every living 'creature from son to son. Survival of the fittest is a tenta- tive force which is innate and in- trinsic and upon which we have reaeted snce our inception. Ancient as well as medieval history is replete with combats to ascertain physical value and to- day we are proudly rooting for our team fighting in the gridiron, and attending other contests de- noting škili in strength. Orels are sponsoring a fight program for Thursday evening, October 8, at the National Home and it is rumored that the seats are selling very fast as the shovv wili be a unique and very inter- esting presentation. K. K. K. To come to earth. The bride received beautiful gifts, really very select articles, and the group of club members presented her with a radio “boat” ornament. And the guests? They hail_g, merry time of it. Further than that, they sayeth not. The fall season is opening with a varied schedule of popular en¬ tertainments and the K. K. K. s have noted in their season’s cal- endar a dance vvhich will be held in the upper hali at the National Home on Holmes avenue, Satur.. day evening, Nocember 2 1. Bids may be purchased from club members only. Accordion mušic is being prom ised, together with refreshments and a jolly good time for every- one who will attend. AMERICAN LEGION OF MIN NESOTA ELECTS At a meeting of the Ladies’ Auxiliary Unit of the American Legion of Minnesota, four Slo¬ vene ladies were eleeted to the various offices of the state or¬ ganization. Mrs. Anthony Vid¬ mar, Mrs. Al Baldic, Mrs. Ed. Kovach and Mrs. John Špenko are the ladies selected. Mismas is looking fit as a Champion. He usually rises early about 8:30 or later and after a hearty breakfast takes a long stroll, being constantly guarded by his camp foliovvers. He spends his afternoons in long consultation with his board of strategy which has aided him so wisely in his previous entanglements. The champion h^s been on a strict diet for some time and partakes of razor blades saying that it aids digestion because they penetrate much easier through his čast iron stomach. Mismas, better known in šport circles as Rozamic-koza has as his chief second Robert Blatnik and Boots” Butala. The champion has been going through secret sparring sessions at the Bath House with several of his trusted deputies acting on the “Vigilance Committee.” As is known he has been taught the art of boxing through a cor- respondence course. One of his chief seconds secretly told us that most of the tactics that the cham¬ pion vvill employ are in volume XXV page 746, paragraphs 39 to to 68 inclusive. After an exhaustive workout, his trainers rub down his body with buttermilk. He then departs to Jos’s a plače of rest. Roramic- koza expresses full confidence that he will retain the title, al though his opponent Kushlan i: the toughest opponent he has yet met. The champion measures about six feet two compared to the challenger’s five feet five. Be¬ sides having the height and reach advantage the champion also has the weight advantage coupled with experience. His pre-fight announcement— The fight is in the bag for me.” kushlan camp Alias Loodvich Sopras By Tan Daylor Twin Yerse and Harry Lausche vvho are the chief cohorts of the challenger, predict that their pro- tege will vvin by a knockout, ovv- ing to the splendid plan arranged by them. It is their argument that if Kushlan and Mismas both too k the same correspondence course they must both know the same tricks. Consequently, like Napoleon, who baffled his mo educated, supposedly superior fbes, the Kushlan strategy board will inject something new into boxing warfare, never before read or §een in ring history. They are supremely confident that their small man will puli a David and slay the huge Goliath. The betting was heavy on the champion in the early stages. However, since ‘ Booboo Bud and “Laughy” M., two cunning bettors placed their money on Kushlan, many of the smart boys swang in with them. The North American Trust and International Savings and Loan are holding the stakes. Since the change in betting, it has also beeft rumored that the bout has been pre-arranged. This, however, has been denied by Yerse, Lausche, Blatnik and Bu¬ tala. —And bellows the promoter “A 20 Karat fight card at fire šale prices.” AMERICAN EDITO!* ix, JUG,OSLAVl A N Jugoslavia received Mr - °n E ‘
