Domino Days
Nick A. Morris served as SPJST Vestnik Editor (1962 to 1969) and Supreme Lodge President (1969 to 1984). Nick’s son, 1987 SPJST State King Michael Morris, shares a story on pages 18 and 19 regarding Nick’s work prior to SPJST and his involvement in a pilot’s daring escape from (then) communist Czechoslovakia, interwoven with the timeless and enduring message of American exceptionalism and freedom.
