BROTHERHOOD

LIDO\I

V poslednim dopisu bratra Fr. Vytopila byla vzporninka na ten lidovk zpev na kterk zvolna zapominame. Ji2 se mezi ndmi zapomina jak9 poklad narodrn vrou cnosti men jsme ye svkch pisnich a ye sve hudbe.

Rikavalo se, '2e zpev je dar od Boha a bratr Vytopil z Wheelock tvrdil, Fe kdy2 se vroucne a citove zpiva, e i andelieky v nebi radi poslouchaji.

Co jsou ty lidove naS'e pisne?

V lidovkch pisnich zpiva duSe naroda, ktera projevuje se praci vkch prisMnikU naroda, jejich vzdelanosti, ,jejich pokrokem v ka2dem smeru Povaha, durilznkch narodt dasto se od sebe ostte Nejkrasnej gim projevem naroda jest umeni, at' jiF hudba, literature neb umeni vktvarne (malitstvi a sochatstvi).

Je k toniu pottebi iiz znadneho vzdelani, abychom dovedli vytknout, elm se narodove od sebe lisi, nejsnaze cla se rozdil ten posttehnouti v hudbe a nejvice ye zpevo, v narodnich eili lidovkch pisnich.

Fil Frant. Skroup, zaslouFilk deskk skiadatel z prvni pulovice minuleho stoleti.

Lidova pisen ma skladatele slov i melodic neznameho. Rodila se na deskem yen kove mezi lidmi zcela prostkrni ale jemne a nadane duce, nebo v ptatelskem kruhu.

Musime si to pted.staviti asi takto.

Prod ty k nam Jenidku, prod ty k nam nechodid?"

A Jenik ji odpovida zpevem: "Kdybych ja, k vim chodil, ty by jsi plakala, dervenkm 'Sateekem eel utirala"; a nova narodni piseh je zrozena.

Skoro kaFdk narod ma sve lidove pisne Jsou to pisne, ktere neskladali valelani hudebni skladatele na slova nektereho basnika, nkin2 takove pisne, kde slava i, napev slo2ili Ede prosti, kteti se tomu nikde neueili, jako se tomu hu devnici z povolani deska narodni hymna "Kde domov mtitj?" jest piseri um61a.

"Andulko, nie dite, vy Se mne libite", zpival si jin9 vesnickk hoch. Jink zase zpival: "Mne se, nine se, rend se. nine se vaecko zda, Fe mole mild derne bei ma".

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK talk.

We are not trying to cast a reflection on anyone, but let's please our audiences! ) • J. • (

How To Please An I al0.1.z:if ice It takes a courageous Program Chairman to keep our meeting or convention speeches within the boundaries of common sense. Most chairmen are not ruthless enough in swinging the gavel or wary enough to head off those longwinded speakers that talk and talk and seem never to end. So the genial chairman tolerates and encourages those after dinner filibusters.

The banquet and district convention season will be in full swing before long.

There will be diffirent meetings, annual dinners, seminars, conferences, workshops and anniversaries. Sometimes these events will start late, some as much as 45 minutes, we sincerely hope who direct the programs for such affairs have taken a lesson that we should have learned from the past.

Very few programs could not be improved by pruning. There is no excuse for pushing aside the important items to make room for the trivial and yet, this is what takes place in a huge majority of our meetings.

We have in mind a celebration held just a few months ago; the tables were arranged excellently for the purpose of eating, but were simply miserable for the purpose of listening.

At least a third of the guests were forced to twist themselves around in their chairs in order to see and follow the speakeds. The (dinner lasted about an hour but musical numbers that followed and those "brief remarks" consumed more than two hours. By the time all of the speakers and personalities were introduced, the hall was full of sore necks and bruised dispositions. The scheduled twenty minutes for the main speaker would have been plenty long under these circumstances, but he spoke repetitiously, for almost fifty minutes, and when the main speaker finished, no one had the slightest recollection of 'anything he said and a good many held their private conferences among them-

Dear Friends

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE "I pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. One Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all." selves.

Plenty of good people complained, but it is an even bet that the same thing will happen again at our next gathering.

You know the line-up that usually precedes the speakers — all the honored guests from near and far have to be introduced and Many persons must be thanked, the reports of the committees follow, announcements, musical programs and songs which sometime fall short of an amateur level. The "fiveminute" speaker that usually follows, have the sense of their timing defective and finally after they all finish, the authence is in an advanced state of emotional exhaustion, not to mention their numbness in their sphies.

We are supposed to be a nation of people who are always going somewhere in a great rush, and if old time oratory is dying out there is no regret. It may be that our indulgence is just a reaction against the pace which we set in civic matters and in our fraternal societies.

Public discussion is important in these hectic days, so it is our contention that we need some real live speakers on live subjects that are able to deliver their message in a concise nianner, for there is little left in our audience to comprehend speaches that have been deadened by two or three hours of suffocating

Some of our readers think that the biggest task your editor has is finding something or thinking of something with which to fill up each week's issue of the Vestnik. This is not so.

The biggest job for an editor of a fraternal paper is writing or selecting articles he believes our readers will be most interested in and that these articles be educational and informative as well. To a certain degree he has to depend upon the co-operation of his correspondents for news from our associated lodges. To get those in time is his biggest problem.

Reports from our Supreme Lodge and from our Districts, of course, always receive preference. We could fill our Vestnik each week with the so-called "News Releases" from different government agencies very easily, but this would not help us very much in making the Vestnik an interesting fraternal organ. Much of the government material (from our Senators and Congressmen) comes postage free, and often is tiresome to look over. Some of it is for information purposes only, for many of them endeavor to pass off publicity and very little can be used in our fraternal set-up. So, we are almost constantly on the go — with not a minute to lose for news from our 166 Lodges, from our friends, from our officers and: from our Youth to make each issue a welcomed visitor not only for the whole family, but also interesting for our friends everywhere Who may become prospects far our organizers.

So let's all work together to make our Vestnik one of the most outstanding fraternal papers in the United States.

Let's undertake something that is difficult, it will do us good.

Unless we all try to do something beyond that which we have already Mastered together, we shall never grow.

Yours truly, The Editor

DEAR SISTERS AND BROTHERS I am enclosing the names of Youth Club members who qualified for prizes offered by the Supreme Lodge.

Our Youth Clubs, under the leadership of our Youth Directors, are progressing very nicely. They have represented our SPJST Order with high recognition by the public on many occasions.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our Youth, , Youth Directors, Lodge and District Officers, our memmership and to the parents of these children, for their support and co-operation with us. Without them, and their support, we could not put this great project over and accomplish our goal.

Also. I want to thank the Youth for taking such interest in helping us secure new membership. We have several who helped us secure many new members, but Ill menton only those who helped to sell a large number or members. In the number one spot is Sister Marilyn Strobel of Lodge No. 133, with 23 members, followed by Nadys Rejcek, James Mahdak, Helen Kolenovsky, Juanita Janousek and Georgia Ann Peters. Our hearty thanks to all of you. Some of you may not have made direct sales, but by encouraging your friends, they will eventually join your Club.

To you, Youths Directors, I want to express my sincere thanks in behalf of our whole Order, for the splendid work you are doing, in helping our Youth with their activities and for the untiring efforts in making our Youth Clubs what they are today.

Wishing all of, you the best of success, I remain Fraternally yours, Joe B. Hejny * 4 (

A True Star3 From "Buster Hanks" Please Read It "This past November 10th, I happened to drive down to a feeding pen where I saw a man feeding cattle. I got out of my car and spoke to the gentleman, remarking that he certainly had some fine steers. We got acquainted, and I told him what my business was.

"When he was finished feeding, I asked him to come over and sit in my car with me, because I thought I had something he might be interested in.

He had told me he was married, and had two children, ages three and five.

"As we sat down in the car, I asked `Did you say a while ago that you did not have any life insurance?' He said that was right and gave as the reason the fact that he and his wife had been having a pretty rough time just trying to live. He also said that his wife did not want to help him manage or make the sacrifice that was necessary to pay the premiums on life insurance.

"I talked to him 'about the security of his family, pointing out that he was his family's security if he lived and the fact that life insurance would take up where he left off if he died.

"I then discussed the savings he would have in a life insurance policy when his children were ready for college and showed him the amount he could borrow on a $10,000 policy.

"I asked him if he had ever seen a better way to offer security to his family in the event of his death, or a better way to save money. I showed him he could not lose if he should quit, live or die.

"He said it was the best he had ever seen; so I filled out the application. He signed it and reached in his hip pocket, took out his wallet, and paid me the first month's premium. I thanked him and congratulated him on the wise choice he had made..

"He asked me to deliver the policy in person to him because it would be best for his wife not to know anything about it, especially since she thought there was very little chance of him dying or getting killed at his young age and health condition. I told him I would deliver the policy to him in person.

"On the 28th of November, I delivered the policy to him. He said at that time, `I guess I had better put this policy in the glove compartment of my pickup.

That way, my wife will never find. it with

all of the other papers I keep in there.' I asked if he thought that was the best thing to do. He said he did, because she would not listen long enough for me to explain it to her.

"On December 12th, while visiting with a client I overheard talk that Joe Sims had a heart attack while !hooking his trailer on the back of his pickup and had died on the way to the hospital.

"I went home and called my company about Joe's death, asking them to air mail the death claim forms. In a couple of days, I had the forms and went by Joe's house the day after he had been buried.

"I introduced myself to Mrs. Sims and told her that I was a friend of Joe's, and that I had come by to see if there was anything I could do. She said there was nothing anyone could do, and she did not know what she was going to do.

"She explained that they had about $400 in the bank when Joe died and his funeral cost nearly $900. She had paid the funeral home the $400 and owed them the balance.

"She went on to say that a payment would be due on the pickup in six days, that she owed a neighborhood grocer about $85, and that she did not have a red cent to buy anything for the children for Christmas. She was sure she would lose the pickup and that the little grocery would probably cut off her credit.

"I asked her if she would mind if I looked in the pickup, explaining that I had delivered a contract to Joe a few days ago that probably would help her with her financial problems.

insurance was a mystery and a queStion mark.

"When I got to the house, I was asked to come in and sit down. I visited several minutes with Mrs. Sims before she asked me if I had heard from the papers I had sent off, emphasizing that she still wasn't expecting anything.

"I told her that I had, and that her financial worry was over for the present time. I gave her the check and said that since Joe was gone and his earnings cut off, that this check was what he left to replace his income to her and the children. I gently told her that even though he was dead, memories of him would continue to live in their hearts and .rinds for many, many years to come.

"Mrs. Sims burst into tears the mor+Emt I gave her the check. She was so _happy and could not believe her good fortune. She said it all seemed like a dream.

"I went to the pickup and got the policy from the glove compartment where Joe had put it. I showed it to Mrs. Sims and told her that it was worth $10,000. I assured her that if she would fill out and sign the death claim form I would go to the doctor and have him fill out his copy and have her money in a number of days.

Three National Defense Graduate Fellowships have been anotted to the University of Texas for the study of Germanic languages. The fellowships have been set up as part of the National Defense Education Act of 1958.

"After Christmas, Mrs. Sims went to Work. As soon as she felt she could hold the job down, she called me and, said the wanted to buy policies on herself and the children. I wrote up the applications.

"She has since helped me to cover nine families with life insurance programs. She told me that only the person who has had the experience knows just how necessary life insurance is in the family budget and what it will do for a wife and children when it is needed most." )• •( THREE FELLOWSHIPS ALLOTTED UNIVERSITY

The fellowships, beginning in 1959-60 may be for three years and are intended for students working toward the doctor of philosophy degree. The stipend is $2,000 for the first year, with an increase of $200 each succeeding year, plus $400 ?ach year for each dependent.

"She said she doubted my being able to get anything for her, since Joe had paid only a few dollars. She said she did not believe any company would pay $10,000 for as little money as Joe had paid, Application forms may be obtained but that she would be happy if She from.

NIESTNIK — WEST, TEXAS

Dr. Charles L,® Novosad Cited By Navy Dr. Charles L. Novosad Jr., one of the first students to enter Texas A. and M. College on a Jesse H. Jones scholarship, has been awarded the Legion of Merit.

A one-time Bryan boy, Dr. Novosad was graduated from A. and M. with distinction. He also went through Baylor University college of medicine in Houston on a $5,000 Jones Scholarship. He appreciated his scholarship so much that he wrote the late Jesse Jones that he personally would establish an A. and M. scholarship after he has engaged in the private practice of medicine for several years, and that he would keep a student at A. and M. under a Novosad scholarship.

Novosad, 28, is now living in Odessa.

He was presented the Legion of Merit medal at a special ceremony at the Odessa Naval Reserve Training Center.

He was honored for his service while a lieutenant in the Navy Medical Corps.

Dr. Novosad was cited for "exceptional meritorius conduct in the performance of outstanding service to the government — as base medical officer and flight surgeon while aboard the U. S. Naval facility, McMurdo Sound on the continent of Antarctica."

While in Antarctica, Dr. Novosad was credited with' saving the lives of two Navy men critically injured in a helicopter crash.

It was on Oct. 17, ten years ago that young Novosad, then 18, appeared on a nationwide quiz show, "Chance of a Lifetime" at the Coliseum.

He had to answer one question to win a $5,000 scholarship to attend medical school.

He flopped, but a sympathetic emcee and audience prompted John T. Jones Jr. then assistant to the president of The Houston Chronicle, to step forward and tell young Novosad: "On behalf of my aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Jones, I think your chance of a lifetime Should be this $5,000 scholarship that will give you the wonderful education you desire." *A

In coon. etion, I would like to put in a "Little Brag" about the members of our new Beaumont Lod ge. In our last ordinary regular monthly social meeting held the second Monday night, Feb. 9th, '14 members were present. This constitutes over /5 per cent of our entire resident membership of this lodge. Every one with agree that this is an excellent attendance percentage. Our meetings are interesting and very harmonious. As president of this Lodge, I would like for some of our members from other nearby lodges to come and visit with us in our Meetings. As the Organizer, I am really going to have to get busy and sign up some more of these good fraternal-Minde:1 citizens of Beaumont.

Fraternally yours, Charlie Cerny, Organizer Beaumont Lodge No. 106 )

TI-77 SUPIVEMIE, LODGE 13eanmont, Tex. While reading over the excerpts from the minutes of the Supreme Lodge meeting held January 8th, 1959 which were published in the English - section of the Vestnik February 4th and then again last week in the Czech section, I observed a Paragraph relative to an agreeMent voted on that the Supreme Lodge would pay for the dinners served at the installation of Beaumont Lodge No. 166 held last year, Nov. 23rd.

Even though this decission was made January 8th, as the excerpts read, I have never been advised directly that such action was taken to pay for any dinners. If the Elks of Beaumont, who did the catering still would be waiting for payment of these dinners, it certainly would have been a sad reflection upon the Manner, Which the Supreme Lodge pays its bills.

Also, I quote the last sentence from this paragraph in the minutes: "This motion was adopted with the agreement and understanding that if a similar case or occassion arises again, that the contemplated expense to be so• incurred Should be determined and set beforee hand."

VESTNiK — WEST, TEXAS and the membership of both organizations had to scout for a, new location.

After months of scouting and deliberation, they found this beautiful fouracre tract of land in Vickery, Texas, now a suburb of growing Dallas, on which to build a new Home for members of future generations under century old pecan trees.

SOKOL AND LODGE PIRO 130, DALLAS BUILDS A NEW HOME Sunday, February 15, members of the SPJST Lodge Jaro 130 and Sokol in Dallas, Texas turned out en masse to break ground for their new Hall.

The old historic Sokol Hail on Carl Street in which Lodge Jaro 130 shared its home has been sold. When the Dallas City Planners re-zoned that section of Dallas as a colored section, the Sokol became a beautiful colored church,

Brother Vine Ondrusek, a morr4)er of the Building Committee, piped us all together to open the ground breaking ceremonies at 1:30 in the afternoon. High on a grassy rise, on a cement slab left there from a previous building, we all assembled to form a semicircle while the Flag bearers -- the American and the Czech flag came up flanked by two members of the Sokol union in Gym costume and three , prominent lodge sisters in Czech National 'costumes, to form a tableau, The Pledge to the Flag of the United States, was followed by an invocation by the Reverend Wright, Pastor of the Baptist Church of Carrollton, Texas.

The Chairman of the Building ConinAttee, Brother Walter Hosek, (a,ffec-

Strana 21 tionately known among his workers as `Mr. Sokol') opened the ceremony with a short speech after which he turned the gavel over to Brother Miro Parma, president of the Dallas Sokol unit, wherein he read the aims of the Sokol Movement in America; based on the precepts of its founder Dr. Miroslav Tyrs, philosopher-teacher in Prague, Czechoslovakia a century ago. Brother Parma represents a second generation of Sokols in this organization and he speaks Czech as well as English beautifully. Brother Parma stated that he loved every minute that he has spent in the Sokol work and that it has been well spent, to advance the Sokol cause in Texas, and America.

Then our dear Brother Miro Jurcik, President of the SPJST Lodge Jaro 130, was introduced who stated: "This is what our lodge Jaro 130 has been waiting for so long.

We are glad to see you all come here today. It makes us all feel good to see our building getting started, so that we can have a place to meet together again.

The Chairman of the Women's Circle (Known as the Krouzek Zen), Sister Marie Prevratil added her best wishes in behalf of the Krouzek. "I am not prepared to make any speeches," said Sister Prevratil, "but I believe that an organization such as ours will get out of it just what we put into it. I know we will have great success."

Sister Prevratil accompanied by Sister Anne Zvolanek, a leader in the theatrical division of activities and Sister Bozena Valcik, a well known spearhead of many drives, and charities in the Lodge work as well as the Sokol, were dressed in their cherished Czech National costumes; colorful and richly hand e mbroidered creations, with handmade " laces and punchwork for the costumes are noted, each costume beautiful, and ,each different from one another in style.

This modest group of women (Krouzek Zen) organized as a Thursday Coffee Kolatch or social circle, too, have tad their headquarters with the Lodge Jaro-Sokol Hall. They have contributed much beautiful handwork to bazaars, benefits and charity, and contributed money to many charitable organizations of America. In the case of this New Home, which they hope to share, they have given their all, their whole accumulated purse of $1,000, a sum which represents hours upon hours of work to accumulate this money. God Bless them One and AM! Brother Adamcik, (sorry we didn't catch his first name) representing the K. J. T. The Catholic Organization in Texas added his best wishes for successful program stating that the "building site looks nice."

Brother Ben Prevratil, President of the Southern District of the American Sokol Union, followed stating: "We are gathered here • today to dedicate this land to an ideal that has been conceived

by Dr. Miroslav Tyrs, over a century ago and brought to this country by immigrant from Czechoslovakia. This dedication is to an ideal for every Czech descendant in Dallas, a step forward in building the latest modern gymnasium for physical education. Dr. Tyrs conceived the physical fitness program to make men and women become better citizens. In this free country, where the • aziech immigrants moved, this program dove-tails perfectly with the ideals of the country of their adoption T.he So-

YOUTH CLUB ROLLING FUN AT LODGE 25 Ennis, Texas The Young People of Lodge 25 are rolling on. The Youth Club purchased 26 pairs of roller skates. We have been roller skating for five Sunday afternoons now, from 2:00 till 4:00. Some of the youth have had previous roller skating experience. For the ones who have never had roller skates on — well — the skates roll, the arms and legs go in all directions, and one thing for sure "a big thud" on the floor. Lots of bruises and sore muscles, but we young people have loads of fun.

Yes, some of, our mothers and dady's give the skates a test too. We love to watch them, as they seem to really enjoy themselves.

I would like to extend a sincere word of appreciation, to a local business man and a member Mr. Frank F'elcman for a $25,00 donations for our skates. Speaking, on behalf of all our club members "Thank You" Lodge 25 has their regular monthly meeting for February. It was brought up, discussed and agreeed upon that Lodge 25 would purchase the same amount of skates for the Youth Club as did the Youth Club. This give us twice as many skates. Again, a sincere "Thank You" to all the officers and members of Lodge 25 from all of us of the Youth Club. On February 10 we had our annual Mardi Gra, Dance. The profits from this annual affair always goes to benefit the Youth of our Lodge. Once again we would like to thank everyone who helped us make this "Mardi Gra" a success. Thanks to those mothers who' brought in a cake.

On February 15 we had a Valentine party along with , our roller Skating.

Valentines were exchanged and cookies and punch were served with a side dish all of us are too.

Your Reporter Mrs. Jerry Zavodny • •t - LODGE NO 66, Waco, Texas Last Sunday, Feb,. 15, all of the officers and leaders of the Youth .Clubs of District met at Dallas, Lodge No. 84 to discuss the details of the Queen Contest of District III. In the afternoon, at 4:00 p. m., the' lodge had their regular meeting. I stayed and became very interested in their meeting, even though most all of these kind of meetings are much the same.

The meeting adjourned at 5:45 p. m. and was followed ' by their regular "Family Night". First of all the teenagers fixed grilled hamburger for the suPper. Served with these hamburgers were potato chips, pickles, and dessert.

I ,iaust tell the teenagers that my family surely enjoyed them. They were positively delicious. Quite a few people were coining in as we left, so I imagine they had a nice crowd as they usually do on "Family Night", Pm only sorry to say we had to leave. I was hoping to be able to stay and play Bingo, but as it , was growing very late, we had to go home. I hope the next time we attend their meeting, we may be able to stay for the end. Thank You for showing all of us such a wonderful time. We really enjoyed it.

Gilbert C. Bartosh, the famed "galloping ghost" of Granger football history, has been named head fotball coach of Milby High School in Houston, it was announced last Saturday.

Mr. Bartosh has been assistant coach at Austin High in Houston for the past three years, and his age of 28 makes him the youngest head coach of all nine head coaches in Houston.

In an article in the Houston Post, he was said to have made the most rapid advance in memory. In 1956, he left the Canadian pros, with whom he had played to accept a backfield job with Bull Kotrla, who had been his coach in Granger High. While working at this job at Austin High, he also did some work on his master's degree at he University of Houston.

Gil's fans ill also remember his famous career on the' TCU team as tailback tinder Dutch Meyer. During his sophomore season, he made all-conference team and lead in total offense with 1, 753 yds.

He earned three varsity letters, but knee injuries limited him, .during his junior and senior years.

In Granger, Bartosh had led the Lions to a regional championship, scoring 205 points and throwing 20 touchdown passes that season. He served two years in the Navy before joining the Canadian Colombia, Lions, whom he led in scoring in 1955.

OTTO L. HOSEK DALLAS, TEXAS Austin — Trespassing continues to be the principal violation committed by hunters, according to the !monthly arrest report of the director of law enforcement of the Game and Fish , Commission. During December, 1958, there were 129 hunters who "crawled over the fence" to hunt on private property.

Night hunters, however, came a close second, with 124 arrests. The night hunting arrests were heaviest because of deer hunters who insisted on getting their venison with the use of headlights.

Next in line of violations were hunters and fishermen who failed to get their licenses. There were 103 such violations, with 58 hunters involved.

Most of the other hunting violations involved deer. There were 23 persons fined for killing spike bucks; 15 for killing doe deer: 13 killing deer in closed season. Numerous other minor violations also were recorded.

The 715 persons arrested by game wardens during December paid fines totaling $20,925.78 and court cost of $1,280 for a total of $22,205.78.

Among the cases made by the wardens there were 15 dismissed and 15 who served jail sentences. In two cases fines were suspended. Three defendants were found not guilty.

• o Limited trapping of starving quail in North Texas, so they can be transplanted in other areas, has been attempted in several places, according to the executive secretary of the Game and Fish Commission.

"We !dbn't think this is a solution of the problem , but we ace interested in seeing what can be done for the birds," he said. "We had a very unusual situation during the past season. There was an abundance of quail and an abundance of rats in the area. The food suply was insufficient and as a result n:any quail have died of starvation."

Wednesday, February, 25, 1959 The secretary said that where qUal arc moved it has been done with the un'derstanding' that the birds would be provided with food in their new range.

"What this will mean we are not in a position to say," he pointed out. "There is some danger that the unhealthy birds may infect other birds. For that reason we hesitate to trop and move many of the starving Wirt. We are doing so, however, on a, very limited experimentm basis."

In some counties in North Texas the birds were so poor by mid-December hunters refused to shoot them. As a result, thousands of birds have 'died of starvation. At the same time rats also are dying off.

For every two whitetail deer you saw slug across the fender of a homebound hunter's car during deer season, another had been left to rot in the woods.

Raymond D. Scrofield of the Michigan Conservation Department makes this charge in the department's monthly maga'zine. Nor, he said, is it a problem pecular to any one state — or the only type of hunting, violation perpetrated by the so-called sportsmen.

West Virginia's conservation department, says "filling up" for the party is one of the most fla g rant hunting violations in that state. "Filling up" means that one hunter (usually the best woodsman and the best shot) has killed several limits of game which he passes out, or even sells, to other members of the party. Anything over the legal limit is left to rot. This violation is widespread and one of the most difficult to counteract. "People who accept this ill-gotten game seem to feel they have not violated the law, but they are just as guilty as those shooting the animals," states the official.

The big problem is that the hunters shoot first and look later. This practice is particularly prevalent in states with the buck law, where antlered deer are the only legal targets.

The desire for ease and comfort in the out-of-dOors has created a new attitude toward hunting and fishing. Lack of experience and craftsmanship has brought on a demand for a bag full of fish or gal-re without the necessary skill and knowledge of the forrest and streams.

An Odessa businessman paid nearly $4,000 in fines recently for illegal hunting that included the shooting of four buffaloes.

Bill E. Scott, 29, was under 14 charges of illegally shooting wild game. His cases

Wednesday, Febrile 7.25, 1959 p , e:•;ented by fe e wardens in Pre sir la and Jeff hils Counties.

Jeff Davis Justice of the Pence Barry Scobee tacked on a total of $1,037.50 for killing two antelone., two deer and one charge of trespassing.

Scott moved over to Marfa where Justice of the Peace J. H. Cass fined him a total of $587.50 on five cases of illegally killing antelope.

As members of Congre• answered the roll call at the opening of the 86th Congress early in January, the traditional concept of America as a melting pot was never more 'apparent. In a se, , sa • the Congress of the United States re ,resents not only every part of this country but a good part of the world as well.

Thad Machrowicz, for example, represents his Illinois Congressional district but was born in Poland in 1899. Steven Derounian, Republican representative from New York' Second District, was born to an American family living in Sofia, Bulgaria. DAM Saund, who was born and grew up in ',India., now represents the state of 'California -- the first native of India ever elected to Congress and the first Democrat his district ever sent to Washington.

The history of our nation is in many ways reflected M. th of these men .. id women who represent us in Congr;•••.s. ,ome are of origin — as wele: the first immigrants- who came to this country more than 300 years ago.

Such names as Scherer, Rooney and Magnuson recall the large number of German, Irish and Scandinavians who came to this country during the 19th century for a new life, for economic or political security.
