For the college set of our young people, there is an added phase that can be woven into the total experience of summer. Loath as they may be to engage in studies, we feel it is worthwhile for them to consider such interesting and not at all overtaxing programs as the Harvard Summer School or the program at Through The Sunny Balkans Georgetown University in Washington, attractively devised and interestingly conducted by Dr. Dobriansky. These programs, too, each in their own way, by irene M. Trotch offer learning, relaxation and novel experiences that can be of lasting value.

Soyuzivka Nourishes Traditions at Easter

Soyuzivka and its neighboring Holy Trinity parish, adorned bv the beautiful wooden church, the work of architect R. Zuk, celebrated the Feast of Christ's resurrection in the traditional Ukrainian manner, the pre-Easter rituals including the blessing of "paska" Saturday afternoon. Photo above shows the Rev. Michael Shewchuk, pastor, performing the rite on the knoll just outside the church. Among guests whiling at the UNA estate during Easter was Dr. Myron Kuropas (above, extreme right, with wife Lesia and two sons), who was joined by his sister, her husband and children in a family celebration (his in-laws, Mr. and Mrs. Waskiw, live nearby). Yet another family reunion brought together the Bazarko, Knysh, Myskiw and Dycio families at Soyuzivka in what was a warm and pleasant celebration. Manager Walter Kwas and his charges made it doubly pleasant by preparing deliriously tasting traditional foods.
