tions with the Communists. It called attention to the unrest and suffering in Ukraine and other subject nations and the immola tions in Lithuania, because of oppressive violations of hum an rights and unjust denial of basic freedoms — but the struggle for freedom continues. Another U krainian note was the presentation by the Brigham Young U niversity International Dancers of several Ukrainian dances, which were m ost popular w ith the audience. The Convention International Luncheon is a favorite event, w ith delegates appearing in native costumes. The guest speaker, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations George Bush, spoke on challenges facing the UN. He was given a copy of the statem ent issued by the 8 wom en’s groups together w ith a leaf let on arrested Ukrainian intel lectuals. In a handw ritten note, Ambassador Bush sent Mrs. Dushnyck, he w rote: “I read the m aterial you handed me •— A most impressive dossier. I’ll keep trying.” Other convention speakers were form er Interior Secretary W alter Hickel and Presidential A ssistant in Consumer A ffairs Virginia Knauer, and others. Mrs- K erm it V. Haugan of Minneapolis was elected GFWC President for 2 years. Her adm i nistration them e will be Respect, Reverence, Responsibility — “to seek those goals th a t will bring justice for all.” In the belief th a t the home is the first and m ost im portant place to encourage the grow th of these concepts, the GF Official Award Program for its Home Life D epartm ent will introduce the State of the Fam ily Program for 1972-74, “Re source Forum s,” which it is hoped will strengthen the fam ily and each individual member by helping all people in the com m unity. A new phase will be a competitive sewing program , w ith a 10-day day trip to Italy as first prize. Thus, the GFWC enters its 82nd productive and fruitful year! U N W L A B R A N C H 6 0 N E W S L E T T E R The June N ew sletter of Br. 60 in Cleveland, Ohio, informed its members th a t there would be no m eeting in June, 1972. Instead all members were urged to par ticipate in the “Under One Flag” Festival held June 16. Home- cooked foods, baked goods and arts and crafts were sold at the Festival for profit- On July 15th a “Swimming P a rty ” at Shipka’s Chalet is planned. Participants should bring their own ham burgers and steaks to grill. Salad and re freshm ents will be provided by the hostess. On A ugust 13 a picnic is plan ned in the Lakewood Pavilion. Members m ay bring th eir own picnic baskets and make a fam ily get-together of the affair. The new sletter also included news of interest to members and their families. One news item, for example, noted th a t Helen Shipka’s m other, Mrs. K ather ine Mural, was honored recently and presented w ith a plaque from H eadquarters for her out standing contribution in bring ing the Lesya U krainka statue to the Cultural Gardens in Cleve land. In her acceptance speech Mrs. M ural rem arked th a t credit m ust also be given to m any of the members in her Branch who worked tirelessly on the project. The N ew sletter is edited by Mrs. Eleanor Sovchik. C O N S E R V A T I O N W O R K A T U N W L A M U S E U M All objects of U krainian folk a rt at the UNWLA Museum in New York City have to be ex amined periodically and undergo conservation procedures. Mrs. Oksana Hrabovych, H arvard Special Student in Folklore and Anthropology, has been invited to take charge of this project. Mrs. Hrabovych is a gradu ate of the Jagiellonian Univer sity in Cracow where she studied E thnography and Sociology. Her work experience was acquired at different museums in Poland. H er publications include among others “W edding Rituals in Lem- ko Region.” In memory of Clifford C. Mil ler, son of Gerald and Cornelia (Pidruchny) Miller, our contri bution to Our Life Fund. Dr. a n d M r s . T e d S l a b y Royal Okk, Mich. R E S E R V E F U N D O F O U R L I F E In order to improve the finan cial situation of our magazine a Reserve Fund of OUR LIFE has been established. This Fund will serve as a security lever for the magazine and its needs. It was started as a Christm as campaign among our Branches and mem bers and gave us, together w ith the E aster gift called “Pysanka” $3,259.00. This small initial sum should be raised to $50,000.00 by the tim e of the next UNWLA Convention, to be held in 1974. S U M M E R B A K I N G Home-baked pastries are always a treat, but th e thought of spend ing a hot summ er day in the k it chen is enough to m ake one reach for a frozen dessert in stead. Well, you can have your home-baked tre a t and still spend a minimum of tim e preparing it.
