NO. 92 CLEVELAND, OHIO, THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 20TH.1933 LETO XXXV.—VOL. XXXV. AMERICAN IN SPIRIT FOREIGN IN LANGUAGE ONLY AMERICAN HOME DOMOVINA SLOVENIAN MORNING DAILY NEWSPAPER Sodnik Corlett imenuje Masehketa najhujšega političnega sleparja Sodnik Corlett v Clevelandu, republikanec, katerega toži Maurice Maschke, vodja republikancev /v Clevelandu ijsa $100,000 -odškodnine, ker je sodnik izrazil baje "zločinske besede" napram Maschketu, je včeraj v cerkvi j na W. 33rd St. in Denison Ave.,1 ponovil vsa svoja očitanja napram MUschketu, radi katerih , je Maschke vložil tožbo za $100,-000 odškodnine, nakar je Corlett izjavil, da ima Maschke sedaj zopet priliko, da lahko toži še za nadaljnih $100,000 odškodnine. Dobesedno je rekel sodnik. Ccrlett: "Z nezaslišano predrznostjo apelira sedaj Maurice Maschke na sodnije, da bi zaprl meni in drugim usta. Tudi ča- j sopisju je zagrozil enako. Ako Maschke lahko dobi $100,000 od mene, dobi lahko $1,000,000 od vsakega časopisa v Clevelandu, ki ga je napadal. Maschke ni nikdar mislil, da bo prisiljen iti na sodni j o, toda jaz ga bom privlekel na sodnijo s silo, in ko bo ta tožba končana, tedaj bodo ljudje v Clevelandu vedeli več o Maurice Maschketu, kot so sploh kdaj prej vedeli. Ako želite, da prepodite Masehketa od političnega vodstva v Clevelandu, govorite s svojimi precinkt-nimi voditelji. Ako bi oni smeli glasovati danes, bi se jih do-80 ouMotkoV. fki so" proti" Maschketu. Pravijo, da sem jaz kandidat za župana, toda povem vam, dfa sem jaz kandidat za eno samo nalogo in urad, in, ta urad je moja sveta dolžnost, da preženem iz Clevelanda najhujšega političnega sleparja, ki je povzročil, da je dobilo mesto Cleveland svoje najbolj črne listine v vsej zgodovini svojega obstanka." Corlett je nadalje z najbolj resnim glasom povdar-jal, da je Maschke držal Alex Bernsteina v davčni blagajni, dasi je Maschketu bilo znano, da je bilo iz blagajne ukradenih $500,000, nadalje, da je bil soudeležen, ko se je skušalo prikriti primanjkljaj, in da ni nikdar dvignil glas protesta proti strašni korupcijji \vlade, ,'ko je bila republikanska stranka na krmilu. Tudi De Valera ima svoje težave na Irskem Dublin, 19. aprila. Med republikansko armado na Irskem se je pojavila Vnekaka nezadovoljnost in tajna agitacija. Voditelji irske armade so mnenja, da predsednik de Valera, ki je obljubil ustvariti samostojno irsko republiko, vse preveč sodeluje z Angleži in da o svobodni irski republiki torej ne more biti govora, dokler je de Valera predsednik. Srbski list o Pasijonu Ugledni srbski dnevnik "Sr-bobran" je prinesel te dni oceno o zadnji prireditvi slovenskega "Pasijona," katerega je uprizoril Jugoslovanski P asi jonski Klub v Clevelandu. Predstave | se je med drugimi udeležil tudi I poročevalec "Srbobrana," g. Paul Perenčevič z mnogimi odličnimi Jugoslovani, in njegovo zanimivo poročilo boste lahko či-tali jutri v našem časopisu. * Ameriški židje so pozvali svoje sorojake, da začnejo bojkotirati nemško blago. Roosevelt odredil embargo na zlato. Razmere se zboljšujejo Washington, 19. aprila. Roosevelt je dobil danes mal prehlad, kar je povzročilo, da je njegovo naporno delo nekoliko zaostalo, vendar bolezen ni toliko resna, da bi poklicali zdravnika. Roosevelt se je pogovarjal s časnikarji in pozneje je študiral denarni problem, a ostalo delo je zadržal. Washington, 19. aprila. Predsednik Roosevelt je pripravljen upeljati inflacijo denarja, toda pod strogo vladno kontrolo. Redukcija zlate vsebine dolarja bo nastopila v najkrajšem času. Predsednik Roosevelt je pripravljen vprašati kongres, da mu podeli polnomoč glede višjih cen, izmenjave denarja in kredita. Obenem je vlada umaknila svojo pomoč zlatemu dolarju v mednarodnem prometu, da se pomaga blagovnim cenam. To se smatra, kot da bi Amerika začasno opustila zlati standard. Trgovanje z delnicami na borzi je bilo sijajno in cene so šle navzgor, kot že leta ne. Cene delnicam so se dvignile od $1 do $10. Zvezni rezervni governerji, zbrani v Washingtonu, poročajo, da se trgovina in promet dnevno zboljšujeta. William Wood-in, tajnik zakladnice, je z governerji ves dan debatiral o zaprtih bankah in kako jim pomagati, da odprejo za redno poslovanje. J. P. Morgan v New Yorku je izdal poročilo, v katerem se strinja z embargom na zlato kot ga je priporočil Roosevelt. Oni, ki imajo velik kapital, je izjavil Woodin, tajnik zakladnice, naj bodo brez strahu. Namen začasne odprave zlate valute je, pomagati cenam, da se dvignejo in da se začne s splošnim poslovanjem. Zato so pa oni, ki imajo denar, navalili se na borze in začeli kupovati delnice, kar je imelo za posledico, da so se cene mogočno dvignile. Te dni enkrat bo kongres dovolil Rooseveltu absolutno moč diktatorja, da uredi denarno vprašanje. Roosevelt bo imel pra-jvico določiti, koliko se izda denarja, koliko naj bo veljava zlatega dolarja in določiti, koliko se mora za en dolar kupiti. Prvi namen te nove taktike Roosevelta je dvigniti cene potrebščinam in ob istem času pa odpraviti brezposelnost. To je 'korak, ki ne prizadene samo Amerike, pač pa ves svet, ki zre z največjim začudenjem na Ameriko. Ves denarni trg na svetu jje'prizadet radi akcije Roosevelta. s London, 1911,-.faff!j„jjft, ^ 31,Mr^lfl• k« j« do«pela-*»>-|vTca,'jTtt'0ŠlevM"p^pwedial vsak eksport zlata. "Anglija bo morala nekaj skrajno važnega ukreniti takoj," se je izjavil visok ! vladni uradnik. Korak Roosevelta se smatra v angleških krogih |kot direkten udarec Angliji, in se bo sedaj drugače govorilo kot j v preteklosti. Roosevelt je s svojo odredbo dobil v roke mogočno I palico napram Angliji, zlasti napram ministerskemu presedniku MacDonaldu, ki pride ta teden v Washington. Washington, 19. aprila. Governerji vseh federalnih rezervnih bank v Ameriki so imeli danes konferenco s tajnikom zaklad-'l.ice, Woodinom, glede bančnega položaja. Korak Roosevelta je največja pomoč, ki se more dati bankam. Obenem je dobil Roosevelt v roke orožje, s katerim lahko zagrozi ostalim narodom sveta, 'da potom ekonomske konference končno pridejo k zavesti in postavijo svoje gospodarstvo na solidno podlago. Vlada in banke Washington, 19. aprila. Tajnik zakladnice, Woodin, je sklical vseh \dvanajst governerjev zveznih rezervnih bank v Washington na posvetovanje, ki se prične v četrtek zjutraj. Poseb-;ni problem posvetovanja gover-jnerjev rezervnih bank bo, da se 'napoti ostale banke, da raztegnejo kredit. Nadalje se bodo (governerji posvetovali, kako [omogočiti likvidacijo približno $4,000,000,000 do $6,000,000,-000, kateri denar se še vedno nahaja izven prometa. Predsednik Roosevelt se v prvi vrsti zanima za saniranje bank. Nova preiskava Velika porota v Clevelandu se je začela znova pečati z zadevo ukradenega denarja iz davčne blagajne. Baje so prišli novim dokazom na sled. Neki Maurice Gusman, bivši predsednik Merchants Trust & Savings Co., je bil povabljen, da prinese s seboj davčne režite in čeke, s katerimi je plačal davke. Povabljeni so tudi receiverji omenjene banke, ki morajo prinesti veliki poroti vse bančne knjige iz leta 1928, 1929, 1930. Prva obletnica V petek, ob 8. uri zjutraj se bo brala v cerkvi sv. Lovrenca sv. maša zadušnica za pokojnim jMike čerček v spomin prve obletnice smrti. Prijatelji in sorodniki so vabljeni, da se udeležijo. Slike v Lorain, 0. V nedeljo se bodo kazale slike iz stare domovine v Lorain, Ohio, v dvorani slovenske cerkve sv. Cirila in Metoda. V Lorainu so videli slike samo še enkrat, do-čim so ostale mnogim še neznane, drugi pa, ki so jih že videli, zahtevajo še enkratno predstavo. Pa tudi mnogo novih slik je, katerih rojaki še niso videli. S 'slikami bo združeno tudi domače petje in godba, tako da bo cel koncert poleg gledališča. Slike bo kazal Mr. Anton Grdina iz | Clevelanda, ob 7:30 zvečer, v nedeljo, 23. aprila. Kazane bodo slike ob priliki nove sv. maše, katero je daroval Rev. Viktor J. Virant. Občinstvo je prijazno vabljeno. -o- Vest iz domovine Mrs. Jennie Dagarin nam sporoča, da je dobila iz domovine vest, da ji je v vasi Gorica, p. Radovljtica, umrla mama Jera Dagarin. V Ameriki izapušča ranjka hčeri Jennie Dagarin in Rose, poročeno štrancar, v starem kraju pa sina Valentina in Martina, in dve hčeri, Heleno Reš in Marijo Dernič. Naj bo bl'agji pokoj niči m^rna domača zemlja. Nagloma zbolel Mr. William Rutar, sin poznane družine Mr. in Mrs. Fr. j Rutar, 21001 Ball Ave. je na-igloma zbolel in je bil odpeljan v 'Glenville bolnico. Diplomatični krogi polagajo veliko upanje v predsednika Roosevelta j Washington, 19. aprila. Tu-jkajšni zastopniki tujezemskih ! držav so prepričani, da predsednik Roosevelt namerava storiti j s tujezemskimi državami isto, kar je naredil v Zcdinjenih dr-| žavah, odkar je prevzel krmilo države v roke. S tem, da je poklical Roosevelt načelnike skoro vseh svetovnih vlad v Washington, je Roosevelt naredil ogromen korak k sporazumu narodov sveta. To je največji dogodek, ki se je pripetiš izza svetovne vojne. Konference v Beli hiši bodo gotovo največ pripomogle, da se bo končno yendar postavila edinstvena fronta proti depresiji. Vojni n^lgovi so zaenkrat potisnjeni v ozadje, kamor po mišljenju predsednika Roosevelta spadajo. Do danes se je mislilo, da so vojni dolgovi glavni vzrok depresije, in da je treba naj prvo rešiti to vprašanje, predno se preide na druga. Sedaj je pa Roosevelt izjavil svoje mišljenje, da vojni dolgovi niso edina zapreka, da svet ne more naprej, pač pa eno samo vprašanje med mnogimi drugimi. "Mi moramo oživeti svetovno trgovino. Zrušiti moramo carinski visoki zid, stabilizirati moramo vredi ost' denarja, odpreti trgovino in kredit. Tudi moramo zmanjša i strah pred vojno,'ki ubija vsv>v<> d<->lo. Le če vsi narodi nastopijo na enOL ni fronti proti tem vzrokom depresije, se bo svet zopet lahko veselil prosperitete." V prihodnjih tridesetih dneh se bo poka-, zalo, v koliko je svet pripravljen slediti doktrinam predsednika Roosevelta. --o-:— Kako so jih mučili Obravnava proti zobozdravniku dr. Winfreyu se nadaljuje te dni v Clevelandu pred državnim odborom za zobodravništvo.1 Človek, ki čita izjave posameznih prič, se mora zgražati, ko bere enake izjave. Bolnikom so pulili zobe brez potrebe, računali so jim silne cene, danes govorili tako, drugič tako. Neki ženski n. pr. so potegnili vse zobe iz ust, naredili nove zobe, katere so ji posadili v usta, toda zobje so bili — preveliki, nakar so ti "zobozdravniki" povedali ženski, naj se naj prvo zredi, naj gre na deželo, da bo postala de-Jbela, potem ji bodo pa tudi zobje "pašali." Miller v borbi župan Miller se je včeraj vrnil iz Columbusa, kjer se je za-eno z župani drugih velikih mest boril proti nameravani novi po-1 stavi državne zbornice, ki bi j vzela mestu Clevelandu $860,-j 000 davčnega denarja in denar razdelila malim šolskim okrajem po farmah. Miller je mnenja, da če je denar vplačan od davkoplačevalcev v Clevelandu mora tudi ostati za potrebe mesta Cleveland. Prijeten obisk V sredo popoldne nas je obiskala v uredništvu živahna in 1 prijazna Miss Sophie Cekuta, hčerka slovenskega councilmana v Girard, Ohio, v spremstvu svojega brata Wiliama in Mr. Je-senkota, vsi iz Girarda. Iskreni prijatelji iz Girarda so nam ob vsakem času dobrodošli, in se jim prav prijazno zahvaljujemo za obisk. * Neki argentinski zdravnik trdi, da se morska bolezen sladkorno bolnih oseb ne loti. Angleška stran Ko je "Ameriška Domovina" dne 3. avgusta, 1929, prvič izšla kot dnevnik, je dnevnik začel prinašati tedensko celo stran novic iz slovenskih krogov v angleškem jeziku. Ta angleška stran se je zelo priljubila pri mladini, v kar pričajo številni dopisi in poročevalci angleške sirarn "Ameriške Domovine." Ta angleška stran "Ameriške Domovine" je izpolnila veliko vrzel med našimi starejšimi in mlajšimi. Odtedaj pa do danes so se pa časi spremenili — v korist mladine. Naše mladine je vedno več, in ta mladina je danes vzorno na delu, ko polagoma prevzema posle, ustaneve, trgovino, društva, ki sc bila pred petimi leti še izključno v rokah starejših, in začetkom januarja meseca, letos, se je pri podjetju "Ameriška Domovina" začel tiskati nov časopis, tednik "Journal and Observer." To je angleški časopis pisan v popolnoma slovenskem duhu, edini časopis te vrste v Zedinjenih državah, kar se tiče našega nareda. Uredništvo "Ameriške Dijmcvine* je sprevidelo, da če bi še nadalje priobčevalo lastno angleško stran, bi to motilo in zadrževalo razširjenje "Journal and Observer," ki itna pred seboj lepo bodočnost. R a d i t e g a smo sklenili opustiti v bodoče angleško stran v "Ameriški Domovini." Današnja stran je zadnja, ki izide. Vse naše mlade prijatelje in prijateljice, pa tudi starejše naročnike pa vljudno prosimo, da zanaprej pošiljajo vse novice, katere želijo imeti priobčene v angleščini, na uredništvo "Journal and Observer," pri katerem se nahaja skupina mladih iri zavednih slovenskih fantov, ki bodo kos svoji nalogi — seznanjati ameriško javnost s slovenskim napredkom in spopolniti vrzel med mladimi in starejšimi. Podjetje "Ameriška Domovina" je zainteresirano v Journal and Observer," katerega toplo priporoča vsem v naročilo.

Zgodovina blaznice rl London, 19. aprila. Delavski časopis Anglije, The Daily Herald, prinaša od svojega dopisnika v Stockholmu dopis, v katerem trdi, da je poizvedel iz najboljših virov, da se je nahajal kapetan Goering, vodja nemških fašistov in desna roka Hitlerja, dalj časa v neki blaznici v Stockholmu na švedskem. Smatrali so ga kot opasnega morfinista. To je bilo v letu 1925. Najprvo se je nahajal v privatnem zdravilišču za umobolne. Toda bil je toliko nevaren osobju in drugim bolnikom, da je divjal in so ga morali pripeljati v državno blaznico. Goering je postal mor-finist tekom svetovne vojne. Ko se je nahajal v bolnici za blazne, je hotel z železno motiko ubiti nekega drugega bolnika. Nekoč je na ulici v Stockholmu streljal na ljudi na cesti. In ta človek je danes desna roka prvega vladarja fašistovske Nemčije ! Vanzetti slučaju, umrl Boston, 19. aprila. Sodnik ! Webster Thayer je danes umrl j v svojem stanovanju, star 75 let. .Sodnik Thayer je poznan vsemu 'svetu, ko je predsedoval sodnij-i ski obravnavi napram anarhistom n Saeco in Vanzetti, ki sta-bila obtožena umora.

Ponovno in ponovno sta bila spo-:znana krivim umora. Njiju slučaj je šel preko vseh mogočih sodnij, in vse sodnije so potrdile njiju krivdo. Sedem let se je vlekla obravnava, in končno [sta morala na električni stol v letu 1927. Nastop sodnika Thayer j a tekom obravnave je povzročil splošno odobravanje, toda obenem je bil sodnik predmet najbolj strupenih napadov. Hiša, kjer je stanoval sodnik ; Thayer, je bila od anarhistov v ,letu 1932 z bombami porušena. -o—- Razsodba komunistov glede angleških vohunov Moskva, 19. aprila. Dva izmed šestih obtoženih angleških inženirjev sta bila danes obsojena v zapor, štirje'so bili odločeni za deportacijo/eden je bil pa oproščen. Deset ruskih obtožencev je bilo obsojenih v ječo do 10 let, eden pa oproščen, Trije sodniki, ki so predsedovali obravnavi, so se tozadevno posvetovali devet ur in 15 minut. Inženir MacDonald, ki je sam priznal krivdo, je bil obsojen v dve leti zapora. L. Thornton, načelnik angleških inženirjev, ki je bil baje glavni zarotnik in vohun, je dobil tri leta ječe. Ostale tri angleške inženirje bodo de-portirali tekom treh dni. Anglija Camera via proglasiti embargo napram importu ruskega blaga.

Roosevelt prepove eksport zlata in pričakuje, da se cene dvignejo Washington, 19. aprila. Ameriška vlada je pripravljena izdati izvanredne odredbe, da prepreči inflacijo ameriške valute. Danes naznani predsednik Roosevelt, da zanaprej ne bo nobenega eksporta zlata iz Amerike do nadaljne odredbe. Sicer je enaka odredba prišla v veljavo že pred več tedni, toda nekaj zlata se je še veno eksportiralo. Sedaj bo tudi to prepovedano. To pomeni, da bo .ameriški dolar nekoliko padel v mednarodni valuti, toda cene pridelkom se bodo dvignile. Vlada bo izdala to odredbo danes, da se deloma ugodi onim, ki zahtevajo inflacijo dolarja, deloma da se ustavi novo tiskanje denarja. -,—o—<- Balkan Mountain Men Nedeljski koncert, ki ga priredijo odlični pevci in igralci iz New Yorka, znani po vsej Ameriki kot "Balkan Mountain Men" bo nekaj izrednega tudi za veliko naselbino v Clevelandu.

No. 92, Thu., Apr. 20th, 1933 Naša mladina in mi starejši Da se mladina naša ne zaveda kulturnih pridobitev in prireditev naših dramskih kulturnih in socialnih društev, je očividno. Saj so morale prenehati skoro vse dramske slovenske predstave v Clevelandu, in če imamo srečo, da naša dramska društva priredijo tekom leta pet ali šest iger, se že lahko srečne štejemo. In k tem slovenskim igram prihajajo navadno starejši ljudje, ljudje srednje starosti, ki imajo še nekaj slovenske zavesti v svojih srcih. In svoje dni smo imeli v treh ali štirih dvoranah v naselbini dramsko predstavo vsakih štirinajst dni, ali pa vsak teden. In v naših pevskih društvih je skoro z laterno treba iskati slovenske mladiče in mladenke, ki so bili ali bile rojene v Ameriki od slovenskih staršev, in katerih prvo zanimanje je slovenska pesmica. Res je, da imamo nekaj naših mladenk in mladinov, ki najraje prepevajo slovensko narodno pesmico, toda slovenska naselbina v Clevelandu je obširna, ogromna in tisoče in tisoče slovenskih mladeničev in mladenk imamo, katerih slovenska dramatika in slovenska pesmica ne ugaja, je brez pomena, se ne zmenijo za njo, in nekateri jo celo prezirajo, se norčujejo. Resnici na ljubo je pa treba priznati, da so dekleta, rojena od slovenskih staršev v Ameriki, veliko bolj dovzetna za našo slovensko dramatiko, za našo slovensko pesmico, kot pa naši ameriško-slovenski fantje. Poslušajmo jih na gramofonskih ploščah, na radio, na prireditvah naših društev, dobili boste vsepovsod slovenska dekleta, ki se ponašajo z lepo slovensko narodno pesmico, dočim so fantje v enakih nastopih jako redki. V resnici je danes največja težava med ameriškimi Slovenci ta, kako pridobiti našo slovensko mladino ne samo za naša kulturna društva, za naše dramske organizacije, za naše pevske zbore, pač pa tudi za naše podporne bratske organizacije. Omenili smo že v enem zadnjih člankov, da bi samo Slovenska Dobrodelna Zveza morala imeti danes najmanj 3000 več slovenskih fantov in deklet, rojenih v Ameriki, v svojih vrstah, kot jih pa ima. In zakaj jih nimamo, je v največji meri naša lastna krivda, nas starejših, ker jih nismo znali ob pravem času in s pravim duhom pregovoriti. Pa vendar bi dobro premišljena akcija tozadevno prinesla mnogo uspeha. Naša mladina ne samo, da je podedovala od svojih slovenskih očetov in mater bistroumnost, razum in pamet, pač pa se je v ameriški odgoji vzgojila tudi na Yankee način, in zna v mnogih slučajih spajati idealni slovenski duh s praktičnim mišljenjem Amerikanca. In mnogokrat je vzrok, da ne razumemo, da ne privabimo te mladine tja, ker mi starejši še vedno mislimo ali na staro domovino in se ne poglobljamo v Ameriko, kjer je vzrastla naša mladina, ali pa prepuščamo mladino popolnoma samo sebi, ne da bi sprejela v. sebe zanos do slovenskega jezika, šeg in običajev. In kolikokrat slišimo našo mladino, ki se je pridružila našim društvom, ki prihaja na društvene seje, mladino, kateri se je posrečilo biti izvoljenim v glavne odbore naših bratskih organizacij, ko se bridko pritožuje, zakaj se starejši, njih očetje in matere na sejah tako napadajo, kritizirajo in sumničijo. Mladina ne more razumeti zborovanja naših bratskih organizacij. Naša ameriška mladina, to je, sinovi in hčere naših bratov, ki so bili rojeni in rojene v Ameriki, je danes že precej številno zastopana v bratskih organizacijah pri glavnih odborih. In dočim starejši člani v takih odborih prinašajo na površje politiko, strankarstvo, zavist, napade brez povoda, malenkosti, se mladina temu čudi in vprašuje: Zakaj? Tej mladini, tem našim hčeram in sinovom, rojenim in odgojenim vAmeriki, so naše strasti, naše strankarstvo, naša polemika, politika in mržnja in zavist, vse to je tuje naši mladini. Mi smo vzrastli v domovini, v Sloveniji, mladina je vzrastla v Ameriki, in ima tozadevno vse drugačne pojme kot mi. Dočim ljubi mladina naš jezik, naše matere in očete, pa jih ne more razumeti, zakaj imajo vendar toliko debat, nepotrebnih govorov pri svojih sestankih, ko je vendar očividno, da če smo bratska organizacija, da morajo tudi kot bratje in sestre delovati v vseh naših podjetjih. In ker ne delamo tako, izvajamo začudenje mladine, ustvarjamo dvom v njej, če smo res bratje in sestre, kot si prizadevamo ustvariti mišljenje tozadevno v javnosti. V prihodnjem članku bomo prinesli tozadevno mnenje odličnega mladega Slovenca, rojenega v Ameriki, ki nam bo znal podati razliko med starejšimi in med mlajšimi člani slovenskih bratskih podpornih organizacij v Ameriki. Njegovo pojmovanje o naših bratskih organizacij bo jako zanimivo. DOPISI Shcho.vgan, Wis.—Morda bo. ptvce iz Barbertona zanimalo veneti, da smo slišali njihovo petje na velikonočno nedeljo tudi v Sheboyganu. Precej motenja je sicer, bilo, ker veliko drugih postaj oddaja v bližini iste zračne dolžine kot postaja WADC. Vseeno se je pa petje razmeroma dobro slišalo. Posebno dobro se je slišala pe-; sem "Zveličar naš je vstal iz grobu," ter "Z Bogom ti planinski ■ cvet." Nato je bilo precej mo- tenja nekaj časa, dokler ni po zraku priplavala čisto razločno "Raduj se Marija." Sheboygan je od Barbertona oddaljen nekako 700 milj. Jako značilno je toraj, da smo na tako daljavo ujeli postajo v Akro- liU. V Ameriški Domovini sem či-tala da je ta barbertonski pevski zbor pod vodstvom Mrs. Angele Beg — toraj ženske. — Naj mi dovoli Mrs. Beg, da ji iz srca čestitam in da sem dvojno vesela, da sem slišala lepo petje cerkvenega zbora, katerega učiteljica je ena izmed članic Slovenske ženske Zveze. Marie Prisland. Girard, O.—Na Veliko nede-jo se je podal Gospodinjski klub proti Barbertonu in vsi prijatelji kluba. Le škoda, da je precej deževalo, toda to nas ni nič ustrašilo. Kar se pa Gospodinjski klub zavzame, to tudi izpolni. Ne ustraši se ne dežja, ne toče in sploh ničesar. Klub je najel bus, na katerega je povabil svoje možičke in vse svoje prijatelje na izlet v Barberton, da tam prisostvuje igri "Divji lovec." Na poti proti Barbertonu in tudi nazaj smo se izvrstno imeli. Vsi smo bili veselo razpoloženi in prepevali smo, da nas je bilo veselje slišati. Takega izleta, mislim, ni bilo še nikdar poprej, kot je bil ta. Igra je zelo lepo izpadla. Dvorana je bila nabito polna. Igralci so bili vešči svoje vloge. Igra "Divji lovec" je zelo težka za navadnega delavca, ki ima priliko le ob večerih, da se malo izuči. In vendar so ti igralci vsi jako dobro izvršili svoje vloge. Posebno dobro so igrali: oče župan, Majda, Janez (divji lovec), Gašper, Maruša, Tine in Tonček. Fantje so zelo lepo zapeli, pred-no so šli nad Lahe. To me je spominjalo na preteklo vojno. V razgovoru sem videla, da so nekateri blizu tam dpma kot jaz, dasi nisem nobenega osebno poznala. Tudi dekleta so nas očarala s svojim lepim petjem in s krasnimi kostumi. Mr. John Garbor je režiral igro in to vseskozi prav dobro. Po končani igri nas je povabil na svoj dom, kjer so nas prav fino pogostili. Tudi njih hčerke so se pridno sukale in nam stregle. Hvala vam. V imenu Gospodinjskega klu-Iba se lepo zahvaljujem in sploh vsi, ki so bili z nami, za tako lepo postrežbo. Ob priliki vam vrnemo. Sedaj pa bodite pozdravljeni od nas Girardčanov. Ema Zore. Cleveland (Collinwood), O.— Društvo Strugglers št. 614 SNPJ se prav pridno pripravlja, da čim bolj pomembno in živahno obhaja šesto obletnico svojega obstanka.

Slogan Contest is . burning these days, trying to pick the winning slogan in the prize Slogan Contest just concluded by the Central Committee of the English-conducted lodges of the Slovenian Mutual Benefit Association. With slogans piled high in front of them, the judges are faced with the ticklish task of wading through the entire lot, selecting and rejecting, and giving each entry full consideration. They are, however, expecting to reach a decision in time for publication in next week's issue1"*?)? "TKe S. D. Z. News. In the meantime, all contestants are asked to have a little patience and to hold their breaths while the committee is reaching a decision. To the best slogan of not more than seven words describing or depicting the spirit of the English-conducted lodges of S. D. Z., a $5 prize will be awarded and the slogan adopted as official for the lodges represented by the Central Committee. The contest, which ran for a period of two months, ending last Saturday midnight, was limited to members of English-conducted lodges only, and was sponsored by the Central Committee for the purpose of finding a suitable working slogan for the group. The judges in the contest, selected by the promoters of the slogan hunt, will not be named until after the winner and winning slogan have been announced. S. D. Z. SICK LIST GROWS AS TONY SOMRAK IS ILL It surely does look as if the fates have it in for the officers of our English-conducted lodges. I First it was "Doc" Gregorčič and "Teenie" Sajovec, Eastern Star president and secretary, respectively, who were confined to sick beds. Last week, Fay Debenjak, recording secretary of the Modern Knights, contracted blood poisoning in her left arm and now it is Anthony Somrak, active Collinwood lodge worker, who is added to the sick list. Somrak is seriously ill at City Hospital, where he was rushed following a nervous breakdown, early this week. A Crusader, Somrak had the distinction of being the first secretary of his lodge. He is also a member of St. Vitus lodge, No. 25 KSKJ. BUSY PEOPLE Clairwoods' Program lor Tonight Filled It is an exceptionally heavy program that awaits the up-and-doing Clairwoods this evening. At 7:45 their crack basketeers meet the Loyalites in the second game of the Interlodge championship series at the St. Glair Bathhouse and it is hoped that every member of the lodge will be on hand to cheer the team on to victory. Immediately following the game, the lodge's regular monthly meeting will be held in Room No. 1 of the Slovenian National Home, new building. And then to climax the evening's schedule, the group will wind up in the lower hall of the building where they will join the Martha Washingtons in the celebration of their seventh anniversary. All of which, we believe, is enough to keep the best of them on their toes. And if you should happen upon any s l e e p y-looking Clairwoods sometime tomorrow, be s u r e and excuse them. Three such events in any one evening is enough to down anybody, i____ EASTERN STAR FLASHES Bv "DOC" GREGORČIČ Back Again Back in the fold again, and thanks to the Fox, Mickey, Sophie Klemen, Dimples and other scriveners for their many kinds remarks, which kept me straining at the leash and anxious to be in the "thick" of it all likewise many thanks to the S. D. Z. members, especially the Eastern Stars, for their visits flowers and cards. Success? Co-operation ? The Eastern Stars' last social was a financial failure, due principally to a lack of co-op-1 eration. In next week's issue of the S. I). Z. News full particulars will be given concerning to the Stars' next social venture. Come on, all you members, let's see some more of that co-operative spirit which made the English-conducted lodge of the Slovenian Mutual Benefit Association the most popular in Cleveland. Baseball's Here Some of the more active members of the lodge have gone out of their way and plugged to such an extent that we can now assure our friends and Interlodge fans that the Eastern Stars will defend their Interlodge B title this coming season. Little or no change will be made in the championship lineup, according to the word of the manager. Collinwootlske Slovenke Collinwoodske Slovenke, No. 22 S. D.

It was the first game of the series that the two clubs are staging for the Interlodge basketball championship. KLEMEN-KORENCIC ENGAGEMENT MADE PUBLIC AT PARTY Some 40 young folks of Collinwood, Euclid and Barberton were on hand to hear the public announcement of the engagement of Miss Sophie Klemen, 16119 Waterloo Rd„ to Mr. Joseph Korencic, 20927 Miller Ave., Euclid, 0. The announcement was made during a dinner held Saturday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Korencic, parents of the lucky young man. The Misses Anne and Mitzi Korencic were hostesses at the party. Following the dinner, the guests enjoyed themselves dancing to music,, furnished by ■Rudy Macek* .president of the Barberton Magic City Juniors, and Frank Zupec. Among the guests present at the affair were the Misses Tillie Klemen, Jennie Jerse, Helen Russ, Pauline Pelan, Helen Zagorc, Lucy Sustarsic and Messrs. Charles and Stanley Polk, Frank Arko, Lester Wagner, John Ulgar, Bill Klaus, Joseph Lukazic, Michael Lah, John Ambrozic, Jack Zagon, John Korencic and Frank Poje. Miss Klemen, a popular figure in S. D. Z. circles, was once treasurer of the Comets and at the same time did her share in making the S. D. Z. News the paper that it is. She was the first of the contributors to conduct a column of her own and make it a success. Her choice articles, short and peppy, captured the readers' fancy and her "This 'N' That" was always eagerly awaited. —----o-- CRUSADER STARS SERVE AS HOSTS AT CLUB SOCIAL Good news for people with happy feet. Again Jack Nagel's Crusaders have been obtained to supply the music for this big affair, the Interlodge Dance on Saturday, May 6, 8 p. m., at the Slovenian National Home, St. Clair Ave. Admission price will be just 25 cents. Dancing to Jack's melodious orchestra will last till 1 a. m., followed by the; athletic banquet at which trophies are to be presented. If you want to see the boys that helped us ern Stars attend their club's next regular monthly meeting as matters of great importance will be brought up for discussion. The meeting will be held Monday evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Slovenian Home, Holmes Ave. • The score does not indicate the first quarter the closeness of the battle for three periods. At the end of the first quarter the Clairwoods commanded a 7 to 6 lead, thanks to some fine work by Joe Jenc and "Lefty" Zalokar. When the half-time whistle blew, they were still in front, 16 to 15. Both quints were tied with 17 points apiece going into the final stanza. Then the Loyalites, whose offensive attack had lain d o r m a n t up until that time, broke loose and sent basket after basket swishing through the net. The Clairwoods tried in vain to stem their attack, but by the time they could succeed in doing so, the Loyalites had chalked up 20 points. Butch Fisher with 12 points, and Iggy Blazinski with 13 markers were the leading scorers for the Loyalites quint. Joey Zalokar, Eddie Peck and Long Joe JeLnc starred for the S. D. Z. bucket tosssers. The C 1 a i r w o o d s are now-faced with the task of winning the next two games if they are to cop the Interlodge championship as expected of them by their loyal followers. The second game of the series will be played tonight and the wearers of the Green and White are confident they can reverse the decision on Tuesday night's victors and thus even up the account and send the series into the third and final game on Friday night. At any r a t e, they can be counted upon giving the Loyalites the fight of their lives in tonight's skirmish and providing the league followers with one of the best games of the season. More S. I).

The price is just 75 cents per plate for outsiders and 40 cents per plate for all players. Perhaps we'll even get to hear some of the boys make speeches which will be quite a treat, as all we ever heard on the floor was, "Here, Joe," or "Toss it in, Frank." A record crowd is expected to attend because of the close contest among the different teams. Judging by the crowds that were such enthusiastic ! fans at the games, this really j should be and we know it will j be a great success. We'll see you there.

The discontinuance of the English section of the Ameriška Domovina comes after a life of a little less than four years, during which time the staff has done its best to serve the reading public to the best interests.

The second game of the titular series will be played tonight at the local bathhouse and if the Loyalites can repeat such a performance as they staged last Tuesday, they will be crowned the loop champions for the 1932-33 cage season. Both quints played some clean and hard basketball and the 250 or more fans who saw the struggle agreed that it was one of the best games dished up to them all through the year. For three periods the two squads battled away, tooth, nail, hammer and tongs, with neither gaining much of an advantage at one time or another. The Clairwoods were playing their usual consistent close guarding game, While the Loyalites were tottering back and forth trying to gain their momentum and get going. Comparatively, the Batters N. B.

All winter long, smiling Rudy was besieged with offers from numerous Class A and B managers. He even was approached with a / \jk contract for a trial [ \ with a minor league yg^Wt. club. He realized that the minor »/,: "/^Bp league moguls are f dishing out very lit- £ .ML salaries, so he de- ^ ^^JffW cidcd to park right here at home and J \ Jl stick to his; job un- A Vj. til times get better. J iT* ; Rudy's friends JU J B and followers have 8F~ 'S'Si&Mm been very much concerned over Rudy Kallister what outfit Rudy will sign for the coming season. So we'll give you the dope. He signed last Tuesday to play second base for Lee Fohl's Pennzoils. Last year Kallister played with Doik Novario's Quaker Sugars and was the leading batter on the cilub. He lambasted the little white pellet for a hefty swat mark of .381, which was 100 points better than the next best hitter's average on the team. So you can see now why rival managers were desirous of obtaining his services. Furthermore, he's a hustler. We'll venture to say he's the most aggressive and peppiest ball tosser in Class A. Smart baseball men of the district regard hiiri as the ideal ball player and predict a rosy future for him in organized professional baseball. A recent issue of the Cleveland Sport and Amusement Guide, which is edited by Norbert Stein, carried a story to the effect that Frank Krainz, local Slovenian second sacker, will go to Davenport, la., in the Mississippi Valley loop for a tryout with that team. Frank played with the Pennzoils in "A" last year and was one of the main offensive reasons why the Oilmen finished in the semi-final play for the right to represent Cleveland in the N. B. F. tournament. One of the aspirants for an outfield berth on the Gallagher Undertakers is Frankie Hrovat. Frank was with the Carson Undertakers in C last year. Frank "Butch" Adams, who received a tryout with Albany this spring, is reported to have booked up with the Pennzq^ls. Kay Zorman and Frank Jeric each whacked out a pair of singles as the Pennzoils trounced the Gallagher Undertakers, 14 to 0, last Sunday at Penn-7rvil Park (in Schaaf Rd. This coming Sunday the music lovers and connoiseurs of the neighborhood will get an opportunity of hearing and seeing, the Balkan Mountain Men, a sextet of musical maestros whose specialty is the rendition of Jugoslav folk songs and music. The ensemble will give a concert and dance at the Slovenian National Home on St. Clair Ave. and the sponsors of the show assure everyone who plans to attend a real thrill in the way of music that's different. The Mountain Men at present are on the staff of the National Broadcasting Co., and it is possible that they may broadcast over WTAM sometime during Sunday. Before they became connected with the radio network they were featured vaudeville troupers with the Chautauqua Operatic Circuit and the R. K. O. At that time they were known as the Belgrade Mountaineers, just recently they appeared in the cast of the WLS Showboat. Every member of the ensemble is a native of Jugoslavia. Slovenian, Croatian and Serbian musical scores are their feature act. Milan Verni is the conductor of the group and Einil Blazevich sings all the feature solo roles. Tickets are being sold at the Croatian National Home and at Kushlan's, 6415 Srt. Glair Ave. Mr. Marian Mihaljevich is in charge of the affair. -o- Lorain K.S. K. J. Lodge to Sponsor Dance Saturday The SS. Cyril and Methodius Lodge, No. 101 K. S. K. J., of Lorain, O., is sponsoring its first social in three years by holding a dance Saturday, April 22, at the Slovenian National Home. Elaborate preparations are being made to accommodate a very large crowd, as practically all of the members and their friends are going to attend the affair. "Našim sejalcem," a Slovenian song, words by Mr. Ivan Zupan, editor of the Glasilo K. S. K. J., will be sung by an octet made up of singers from the Our Home Chorus.

At the end of the third quarter the score was knotted at 17-all. Not two seconds after the start of the final period the storm broke. The Clairwoods were deluged with a veritable downpour of buckets (points, not rain, you dope). By the time the belated scoring attack that the Blue and Gold cagers put on had subsided somewhat, the Clairwoods were too drenched and overcome v/ith surprise to make any offensive gestures on their own behalf. They did, however, manage to connect for seven points. The Loyalites' rally in the closing quarter netted them exactly 20 markers. Butch Fisher, Iggy Blazinski and Nicky Spehar corriscated for the winners. Joe "Lefty" Zalokar turned in one of the best all round performances seen this year in the loop. He played a brilliant guarding and floor game and accounted for eight points to lead the Green and White lads. Joey Jenc, with two field goals and three fouls, was the next best performer for the Clairwoods. A most elaborate and colorful program is being outlined by the arrangement committee for Interlodge Day, to be held Saturday, May 6, at the Slovenian National Home.

Eddie Simms Drops Eight-Round Decision to Patsy Perroni on Public Auditorium Card Last Night By BILL TOFANT That grizzled and weather beaten female—Old Dame Experience - that is an important factor in -.ill sporting activities, joined hands with Patsy Perroni, local Italian husky, in bestowing an eight-round defeat on Eddie Simms, neighborhood Slovenian at the Public Hall last night. Tlu two ring stalwarts met in thj semi- that their duel was the best on the evening's program. From all exterior aspects the Simms handlers evidently had told hin> to tear after Patsy right off the bal; for before the opening round was little more than a few seconds gone, Edc'ie dashed over to meet Pat and succeeded in landing a hard right that staggered the swarty Italian. Right then and there Patsy inaugurated the style of fighting that eventually was to win the fight for him—counter-punching. Whenever Eddie would toss that soporific right of his in an effort to land it on a vulnerable spot, Perroni would step back and shoqt in two or more counter-blows before Simms cculd regain his equilibrium. Thats the way it was all through the fight. But Eddie did manage to land solidly on numerous occasions and his blows left telling effects on Perroni's physiognomy. Pat bled profusely all through the milling. Both boys slipped several times during the match for no-counts. There were no knockdowns to speak of. According to our score sheet, Perroni won the first, second, fourth, fifth, sixth and eighth rounds, while Eddie was credited with having won the third and seventh stanzas. NImmediately after the bout there was talk of a re-match, but we hardly think that Patsy would care to mingle v/ith Eddie again. It's, too much of a gamble. The main go between Ben Jeby and Gorilla Jones was declared "no contest" by the boxing commission. The claimants of the world middleweight title waltzed around for six rounds, pulling punches and schot-tischirig around the ring like a couple of old maids at a lawn fete. Eddie- Qimms* final bout on A1 Paige's fight card at the downtown spot. Perroni, the transplanted Canton boy, proved to be far too cap,.v ar.c! elusive for the over-anxious Eddie. Petsy, the seasoned veteran with more than 50 professional encounters dangling from his belt, was exerted to his utmost in walking off with the decision. The 7,800 or more fans who witnessed the embroglios which comprised Paige's card, heartily agreed BOY SCOUT MOTHERS' CLUB HOLDS MEETING AT LOCAL BATHOUSE The Boy Scout Mothers' Club of Trocp 250 will hold its regular monthly meeting on Friday, April 21, at the St. Clair Bathhouse at 8 p. m.
