DETROIT, Mich. - The youngest msffifflM team (eight and under) playing for the Ukrainian Sports Club."Chernyk," be– came the Michigan State Soccer Cham– pions. They won against the Birming– ham Bears 1:0. The team spirit of the Ukrainians proved that the best athletes are full of enthusiasm, drive and persis– tance to win. A season record of 6-0-3 showed the proud parents and friends, that the champions wanted to win and win they did. As 5-year-old kids, who didn't know in which direction to run or how to kick a ball, they realized the value of being good team atheletes. lhe dedicated efforts of their coach, Chris Shalay and His wife, team mana– ger, Jo Shalay, and the warm support of parents, who never failed to believe in the athletic capabilities of their sons and daughters made this championship possible. Alex Fedorowych was an outstand– ing goalie who played like a pro and had only one goal scored against him all season. His defensive fullbacks Andrew Macielinski, Roman Kuropas and Chris Portalski made it tough on anyone getting too close to their goalie.

On the 30th anniversary...

(Continued from page 10) Where there is life there are constant changes no matter how painful. The resignation of Prof. J. Gaboda for personal reasons, who with his sophis– ticated taste and enthusiasm as chairman of the arts committee had served so well, came as an unexpected loss, it was, therefore, a great relief when Mr. G. S. Hordynsky accepted the challenge to fill his place and conduct the chairmanship of the arts committee until 1975 at which time Prof. Peter And rusiw consented to become his successor.

That year, Mr. P. Stasiuk, because of his retirement to Florida, resigned from the board of directors and Dr. Zarycky was elected in his place. The following year, Dr. Zarycky became the chairman of the programs committee, a post vacated by Mr. O. Balaban. who had served for many years with the perseverance of a pioneer and was at this time recuperating from surgery. Dr. Zarycky headed the programs committee until 1977 when Andrew Pas– chuk assumed the post. His efforts to enliven the interest of the members in the programs of the institute were admirable. Many different activities were held at the institute during 1969-70. More than a dozen individual art exhibits took place in addition to the permanently established one, which included works by over 50 artists. The membership rose to 76, mostly recruited from the ranks of professionals, the medical doctors, engineers and librarians.

During the next two years there were many lecturers, concerts and exhibits. Five antique vest– ments from Ukrainian monasteries were acquired at an auction on Fifth .Avenue with the consent and money from Mr. T. Dzus. This constituted a great enrichment of the institute's growing collection. From 1973 to 1974, over 120 events took place, 1 krainian institute of America staged by 32 different associations, giving a wide range of people the opportunity to visit the institute and take efforts of the membership committee, the number of went extensive repairs, which somewhat limited the part in the'cultural activities of the Ukrainian Ameri– members rose in 1964 to 108. it should also be men– use Of certain rooms. . ,– .
