Buh well known missionary in North¬ ern Minnesota. J. P. Buh was born in Lucnak in Gorenjsko. When he came to this country, he was two months on the way. arriving in this country on a sailboat back in 1864. He was accompanied !by; seven other/ men who became missionaries under Bishop Baraga. Rev. Buh was born March 17, 1833 and died February 2, 1922. Thrills in Snow Rev. Buh’s first missionary voyage was in the coldest part of winter going with Missionary Pirce in 1864, on a mission from Crow Wing to Rainy Lake. They were detained there seven days because of a great storm. They had a small lamb for food and they ate this without bread or salti They slept under the snow, covered with many furs. Among the Indians They journeyed to an Indian village called Guatemategamag, then up the Mississippi river to Eagles Nest. From there they went on to Itasca county where they made posts at Winnibigo- shish lake from which point they went up the river to the Indian villages of Amotanoven, i Karviwgamak, Rossacaban, Ga- gaspan and Wilatawenga. Indian Tribes They continued their journey up the Big Fork River to Rainy Lake. Here they stopped at two Indian villages, Rassalaban Wibi and Openaban Owinmingsibi. From RainyLake they journey- ed d.own Little Fork river near Lake Vermilion. From this point they visited Sabinrane, Saginai, Iv/amgan and Nomoni Vag. They made the return trip overland and down some small rivers. The journey was over a dis¬ tance of a thousand miles and the information concerning it was taken from the maps and writings of Father Buh. He came to Minnesota in 1880 loca- ting at Tower. He established the first Indian churches. »At one time he was editor of the American Slovenecwhich stili has its headquarters in Chicago. His last church was at Ely in 1890. This church was torn down after his death which took plače in 1922 in Duluth, vvhere he is buried. With two orchestras pro.vid- ing continuous mušic, the Com¬ rades will have the honor of staging for the first time on the stage of the Slovene National Home on St. Clair avenue, an attraetion which has never been staged before. There will be two orchestras providing the . mušic and not one moment of quiet- ness. The grand dance will be held on Thursday, February 12. Musič for the occasion will be furnished by the Sovereign Or¬ chestra and the Virginia Nite Hawks. Coupled with the nov- elty attraetion of the two or¬ chestras will be the hospitality of the “Comrades” themselves who by their previous work and socials have shown that they know how to entertain and are out to surpass themselves this time. At least that is the ob- jective they have in mind. Everybody is invited to attend the grand doings.

JAKAC TELLS AUDIENCE OF SLOVENE ARI Collinwood Dramatic So- ciety tojtont Plav Tragic-Comedy ‘Kdo je mrtev?’ Will Receive Attention of Good Balanced Čast Strenuous preparations are in order now at the Sokols, pre- paring ali of the things which go to make an interesting pro¬ gram, such as the Sokols are preparing for the ex'hibition which will be held at the Slo¬ vene National Home on Sunday, February 15th. New Program The members of the Sokol or- ganization under the direction of the able leader John Marin¬ ček are preparing ;a eompletely new set of exercises in ali the departments of the specialties in which they partake. The gymnasium equipment is busy at every session of the Sokol period with the enthusiastic young members who are doing the j ob well and at the same time getting into the špirit of Sokolism with its physical and cultural program. Organized 34 Years It is a rare honor to be chos- en speaker for one’s class at commericement, ibut such an* honor was bestowed on a Slo¬ vene youth, William Novince who graduated Thursday, Jan. 29th, from Collinwood High School. Out of Collinwood J s huge graduating class he was one of the four so honored. The selection was based on studies and activities, in which Mr. No¬ vince ranked among the high- est. With Novince also graduated the following Slovenes: Joseph Brodnik, Frank Centa, Pauline Hrovath, Victoria Kosec, John Prosinich, Rose Stanonik, Fr. Saloman, Frank Žagar and Max Malavasich.

Members be advised that the next regular Comrade meeting will take plače Wednesday eve¬ ning, February llth, 1931 at 7:30 P. M., instead of FCbruary 17th, 1931. This change is due to the Pre-Lenten Dance in both halls on Friday 17th, Slovene- Nat’l Home. EAST TECH HONORS FOUR SLOVENES Four Slovene )boys received diplomaS from East Technical High School last week. The luck.y gentlemen were: Adolph Kotnik, Anthony Stepich, Fr. Turk and Louis Truger. The Sokols in Cleveland have been organized since 1897 and have been especially active in the field of nationalism and gave enthusiastic support to everything that has (been done by the Cleveland Slovenes for the interest of the whole group. As an example of the interest in the way they try to accomo- date the young people they have voluntarily spent more than $1,500 for the interest of the young people who belong to the organization in giving* them a chance to keep physically fit and to absorb the špirit of the idea vvhich lies behind Slovene culture and Slovene activity. For the last 34 years they have been active in the same špirit and have performed many times to the keen interest and satisfaetion of ali the Slovenes in Cleveland. This will be the grand annual performance of the Sokols and they are prepar¬ ing to make it a real occasion to show \vhat they really can do and what voluntary gymnastic exercises can do. Many people ha,ve stopped at the exhibit of the prizes which will be given as prizes for the best costumes, at the Mask Dance which will be 'held at the Croatian National Home, 6314 St. Clair avenue on Saturday February 7th. The prizes are on exhibition in the show win- 'dows of the Mihaljevic Bros. Steamship agency at 62nd and St. Clair avenue. The two prizes are only a sample of the prizes which will be given away because more than $50 have been appropriated to the securing of prizes which will be many in number. The prizes will be given for the best. the funniest, most appropriate, costume, etc. Everyone has a chance to get into the compe- tition for the awards. There is no red tape, ali that is necessary is a costume and get in. The mušic for the occasion will be furnished by the Ellis Bros. orchestra. The tickets if they are bought before the dance will be 30c, at the door 40c. MASKS CARNIVAL On the Silver Masks basketball car- nival program, two of the Inter-Frat leagues hot favorites will perform, namely the Silver Masks against the Majestic Radios and the Sokols who It was a grossly interested audience that listened to the lecture on Slovene Art at the St. Clair Library last Wednes- day evening, Febru,ary 4th. Though an actual count was not taken, conservative estimates are placed at more than 250 people who have come from ali parts of the city to hear the lec¬ ture. Mr. Božidar Jakac Very signfieant is the ' fact that though the library itself did not advertise the affair in its quarters at ali, so many peo¬ ple came to hear the lecture which was held in Slovene by the Slovene artist, Božidar Ja¬ kac who is now staying in America. Mr. Jakac was intro- duced to the audience by Mr Ivan Zorman who in a very brief talk outlined the back- grounds of Mr. Jakac’s life and aceomplishments, in spite of the artist’s youth. Mr. Ivan Zor¬ man told of the 48 exhibits which were held in ali of the principle citias of Europe and have attraeted. muc h comment from the foremost critics in Europe. History Outline Mr. Jakac in his address out¬ lined the history of Art in Slo¬ venia in an outline form, men- tioning the principle names and characters in S'ovene art his- tory in ali of ths different forms of expression. In the introduc- tion, Mr. Jakac told the audience what art is and what it proposes to accomplish and how the whole process of art effects and should effect the people. 01 d Pictures In a clever expose h e showed how names have been changed in the past and how the.y must be interpreted into the Slovene as names of peop’e who have aided in the development of Slo¬ vene art. One of the most im- portant bits of the lecture was his announcement of the discov- eries of the frescoes \vhich have been hidden by the coats of whitewash which have been ap- plied by the people of the past ages and the part they have played in the preservation of bits from which Slo- “Anton Verovšek” Drama¬ tic society of Collimvood vvill present the favorite and well known play “Kdo je mrtev?” at the Slovene Workmen’s Home on Waterloo Rd. next Sunday, Feb. 8. The dramatic soeiety is very active in the locality of Col¬ limvood and is always interest¬ ed in bringing forvvard the best of Slovene dramaties to its ever inereasing circle of friends. The ehoice of the current play is a happy one and one that should be aicepted by ali of the patrons of Slovene dramaties as a happy choice of the direetor of the so- ciety,- Presented last year Last year the same play was presented by the dramatic so- ciety “Ivan Sankar” and at that time the audience that at- tended was enthusiastic at the lively action and the delightful comedy that it presented. Full of surprises and full of real fun mixed with some anxious mo- ments of mystery it will pro- vide an evening of fun for the most discerning. With the well balanced čast and excellent his- trionies it will be a memorable event. Plot Indicated The action of the play centers about the two neighbors who because of the romance of the daughter of one and the son of the other swear a feud with each other that eve before they go to market. On the road back, the villagers find news of a dead man who by deseription tallies with either of the two men. It is a problem to discover who is dead, and who is alive, so that the right one may be accused of the foul deed. How the solution is happily reached is one of the most intriguing things in a p!ay that incorpor- ates; an air of mystery, adds a lot of fun and mixes with that comjbination some very liv(|ly action. The tickets are being sold at the establishment of Anton O- grinc in the S. W. H., at John Rozanc’s 15721 Waterloo Rd, and at Joseph Durn’s, 15605 !Wa- terloo Rd. They are 75c and 50c.

Modic carried off the sophomore honors, wliile Nad¬ bath copped the Junior ribbon By F. T. Gerbec We are, ali of us, aware of the splendour of the Orient, the glory of the Greek and Latin, the majesty of the Angle and the renown of the. Teuton. We are, more or less ali sceptical of the Slav and the r!eeently eman- cipated Jugoslavia struggling with the earnest endeavor of 1000 years lost to recuperate and gain solid equanimity among the nations with glorious pasts. It is sincerelv difficult to realize what tremehdous efforts, untold hardshipš and bitter struggles a na.tion which has only recently freed herself from her yoke, must sustain. . It is impossible to express sufficient gratitude to the lead- ers who mould such a nation in¬ to the masterpiece that will be esteemed, respeeted and which will be appreciated for the dis- tinction which is its due. The Jugoslav (Slovene) Club members have pledged tkemsel- ves to promulgate Slovon« ture among Americans. : i ...v have, so far, been very active in promoting the interest. With this end in view, they have con- tributed one of the greatest opt- standing events in the Ameri¬ can Slovene history, by ar- ■anging a Seminar for can people who are interesrea ni Slovenes. They were able to do this only through the sponsor- ship of Miss Maxine Steinitz who is the monitor of the Club.

Perhaps it is a little too early to begin playing baseball. But it is never too early to talk base¬ ball. Especially does this apply to clubs ivho are anticipating en- tering a team in the Interlodge League. Now is the time to wage your campaign for star bali players, that you vili want to represent your club. You must bear in mlnd that there are only two or three club meetings before the initial organization baseball meeting of the Interlodge. If you want your club to finish sometvhere near the top you will begin to “fili up” with prospec- tive ncw member bali players NOW and not vait until the season opens. Consider that if the managers vote in favor of the rule which will require each player to be a member ninety days before he can play. How imperative it is for you to forti- fy your club with baseball ma¬ terial immediately. The bowIing and basketball season is more than half over.

To Charge Admission to Inter-Frat Games At the meeting of the members of the Bath House Council at the St. Clair Neighborhood Center it has been voted and decided upon to charge ad¬ mission to the Inter-Frat Girlš games' on Wednesday. The members were unanimous in their decision to have prices of ten cents for the adults and five cents for children. This move, of course, will cut down the attendance. But it is believed that in doing so it wiil keep the undesir- ables; that Is the cliques who come to the Neighborhood Center for' no other purpose than to lounge around and make silly remarks thereby keeping othels out and making it miserable for ihose who really enjoy the games. Furthermore the small charge is not too much to ask for in vie\v of the kalibre of bali the lassies display. Then too the money taken in will be used in paying Ahe Muny league referees. The balanee will be used in buying the girls medals and trophies at the close of the season. Tlie city will receive a ten percent ;ut of the gross receipts. This affiliation with the Muny League has been under discussion for two seasons and the members in vot- 'ng to join it did it with the provi- ;ion that if it does not meet with ‘Heir expectations they will not re- mter next season, For the time it is an experiment, the season being more than half over.

CLAIKWOODS STAGE GREATEST UP- ' SET OF SEASON Jimmy Stepic Smacks 680; B. Alich 267 Unquestionably the most sensation- al and dazzling bowling of the cur- rent season was Charles Lindy Kot- | nik’s pin toppling performarfce Sundsy ' at the St. Clair EJdy Parlors. Li:rdy ’ Tony Cimperman Wins for Cleveland That St. Vitus K. S. K. J. q U intet which has been rising so rapidly had a wonderful opportunity to step unto , „ , uext rung. But their opponent-s has roHod :omp great scores before bui Cleveland No. never did he combine the large fig- ures as he did Sunday. In fact you can count the men who came some- where near achieving Lindy’s latest feat upon the fingers-- of your hand. The big “fella” yes he’s six feet three, came within nineteen pins of equal- ing the city record held by Emmett Van Auken. Kotnik was just “on” as the saying goes. But that's not ali. He had confidence in himself thru- out in ali but the one incident in the second game which rebbed him of a perfect score of 300. After he had finifhed his first game with 4 strikes | 9 had the same ambi- tions and staved them off by jolting the K. S. K. j.’s in two games. Tony Cimperman anchor man for Cleveland who journeys from West Park every Sunday was the mainstay for the win- ners. He garnered games of 193, 213 and 185. T. Grdina crashed 568 for the losers. Leaders Unmoved While the G. W.'s were staging their outstanding performance of the year the Spartans were quietly rolling a neat set of games, 943, 982 and 999 and easily defeated the Betsy Ross outfit. Lindy Kotnik Charles (Lindy) Kotnik demonstra- ted Sunday that he can use that long lean right arm for something else be- sides soeking, when he rolled the fanciful series of 800 at the St. Clair j men l<' l°st his confidence. How could Eddy Parlors. In addition to the reg- * le i^? His te.nth strike was one ular league games he also bowled an- 0i those thin hesitating kind which other splendid series late in the aft- vhich brought up his total to 258, he vVysopal llad a nice middle game of contiiiued right ahead in the second game by collecting ten more consecu- tive strlkes and then with farne star- ing him fully in- the face Lindy be- came just a bit shaky and for a mo- ernoon when his George Washingtons outfit participated in the elimination series with the Boosters for the S. S. C. U. title. He started his first game with a bang crashing 255, fell down to 226 and culminated another wonderful series of 744. In ali six games he rolled the magnificent total of 1544 averaging 257 per game. Some Cherry Tree chopping \ve calls it and we join with the rest of the kegling Inter-lodge members and friends in congratulaing Charles (Lindy) Kotnik upon his splendid bowling. Lindy also bowls in Joe Pozelnik’s Norwood Home League. Will Clairwoods Stop Spartans? SCOTTY AUSTIN WINS KIBLER SUIT Robert “Scotty” Austin a mild man- nered and quite chap who is Del Young’s asslstant and manages the second floor alleys at the St. Clair Eddy Parlors, won the Kibler suit last month by rolling a grand 279 game. Scotty who is one of Sam Habs main- stays has been unable to bowl early in the season on account of siekness. He made his season's debut a week ago Tuesday and as his score shows it was a most sensational one. Scotty Austin is a former amateur bali player having starred on such teams as the St. Anthony Cadets, Lattlmer Morrisons, champions of Class ‘1A” and Del Young's Favorite Knit “AAA” bali team. cf those thin had the crowd moan for a moment and then let out a mightly cheer. Here was Lindy getting ready for that eleventh and second last roli. The crowd was silent bul tense now. More- so was Lindy. He was smiling weakly and trying to control his nerves. He got set; rolled the bali and as he did it seemed that the mineralite would never reach the head pin, so anxious tvas everybody. His slowe curve bali turned right in but worked itself over on the brookside a little thin. It look- ed good for a moment, but the tentli pin after wobbling a wee bit stood uo while Lindy slapped his hands and 233 included in his 597 series. Johnny Milavec’s opener of 238 boosted him to roli a grand 621 series. WIiile Wohlge- muth climaxed with 225 bringing his total to 593. Peterlin and Urban top- pled the maples for 568 and 545 counts respectively. Captain Geo. Kovitch sparkled for the losers by gathering 194, 188 and 244 totaling 626. Tony Škufca battered 581. Comrades Win Close Series The Utopians and Comrades staged a fajrly evenly matched series with the S. N. P. J.’s winning two. The Utopians won the first skirmish by 21 pegs rolling 938 and 917. Rudy (6’neil) Turk’s 222 carried the Comrades to victory in the middle chapter and then Bendy Alich bended his way thru with a whistling 267. This splendid mark won for the S. N. P. J.’s since t.hey rolled 912 to 907 in the final con¬ test. It also puts Bendy in fifth plaes for individual high. Rudy (0’neil) smiled. And it is just as well that Turk rang up a sparkling series of 642 he did smile because it enabled him to come back in the final setto to regis¬ ter another sizzling count of 254.. In rolling this wonderful series, vvhich may never be equaled in the Interlodge Circuit, Lindy did it with- out going through a great deal of fun- ry rnties of jumpina or yelling. Hs just set himself cooly, laid the sphere v?ith precision upon the slides; looked at it heading straight for the pocket. :miled and sat down. The question of the hour in the In¬ tel- - lodge cireles is, “Will the Clair- vvoodš thwart the pennant bound Spartans?” In view of the consistent rolling on the part of the S. D. Z. lads and their recent sensational triumph over the S. Y. M. C. one is prone to believe they will give the Spartanites plenty to wOrry about. On the other that aided the Georges . in amassing a hand their closest rivals the G. W.’s The St. Clair 61st St., big “fella” rerved as an inspiration to the rest of his Washingtoman members. It was his kegling combined with consis¬ tent rolling on the part of his mates three game total of 3119. This is the new high mark of the Circuit. are not going to have any easy pick ing.

Ali they have to do is win three and the Spartans lose three and that as anyone will ad- mit would be—some HP se t;- S. Y. M. C. and St. Vitus K. S. K. J.’s should stage an interestlng tussle. The Young Men will have to extend them¬ selves or drop one rung below the So- kols who are pressing right behind and l are bo\vling the lowly Pioneers.

Stanley Bencina hit 220 and Joe Rupnik 214 Stepic and Clairwoods Do It Lindy Kotnik and the G. W.’s \yere not the only ones to carry off the lau rels Sunday. The Clairwoods, last years’ champs, came through with a cvveeping surprise victory over the potverful S. Y. M. C. And it was Jim- my Stepic who was responsible in the main for the Clairwoods staging the greatest upset of the season. Jimmy is' unlike Lindy in stature measuring about five feet; but he sure can hook 'em. His dazzling 245 game helped his team in raising its total to 1027. The S. Y. M. C.’s were not far behind finishmg with 996. Again Stepic’s 237 in the second shindig served as a con- tributmg faCtor in downing the pow- orfill ones. Both clubs Vere exhaust- od somevhat for the final game, neither rolling up to expeetations. Aside from Jimmy Stepic, Mihelčič and F. Stepic did \vell for the cham¬ pions.

Rudy Cetina again led the final 871 v/as stili good enough to de- feat the Orels by 13 pegs. Tony Laur- ich’s 622 easily carried off the honors. His brother came next vith 609, fol- loved by Krall’s 580. Vic Hrovat was Orels’ chief luminary tallying 590. Tony Kushlan pummeled 562. DEL YOUNG JR.

Ali the teams sliovved plenty of špirit and dash in their games. In the third fray of the evening the Silver Masks and Spartans put on as fierce a tussle as ever seen. Both teams knew they were in for it, and how did they battle. The Spartans endeavored to even the count as the Masks had defeated them once before, but the blue and grey outfit put one of their best per- formances of the season,by again em- erging vietorious. The Masks show ed almost perfect co-operation both on the offense and defense. The Masks held the pov/erful Spartans scoreless in two periods, the first and the third. Much improvement Is shown by the Masks since Nick Sec- oiic is coaching them. At the pace they are going now, the blue and grey outfit promises to be in at the finish. With the whole team tallying at least one field goal apiece, the Masks chalked up seven baskets and two foul throws for sixteen points. Kastelic and 0’Sieeki tied for scor¬ ing laurels with four points apiece to lead the Masks. Nichols and Fouts scored three apiece and (Arthur regis- tered two. Yana proved to be the Spartans mainstay. Her two double deckers, tied her with Kessler who scored once from the field and twice from the line. Selan tallied once from the foul line. Nichols, drew first blood, by mak- ing good her foul throw. Fouts, drib- bled from the sideline to tally. Nich¬ ols on a dribble througli the length of the floor, sank one. giving the Sil¬ ver Masks a 5 - 0 lead at the quarter. In the second stanza. Yana recelved a pass from Benes to score the first Spartan point. Arthur following on Fouts try, to let one go through the meshes. Kessler scored on a foul. Kastelic, backing up Arthurs hurried throw, followed and looped one thru the rim. Yana ended the second quarter by tallying from the side- lines. The Masks led nine to five. The Masks held the Spartans score¬ less in the third period, while they registered on 0’Siecki's double decker and Fouts foul. The blue and grey held a seven point lead going into the last quarter, 12-5. Selan sank a penalty throw. Kas¬ telic again dropped one in the bucket. Kessler made her charity throw count. 0'Siecki getting the tippoff dribbled through the center and registered one.
