Born Delray General Hospital
Graduated Holy Cross School 1964
Lived in Delray until 1976 on South St.
Sunday 11/25/1956 the Detroit Free Press's Roto Magazine ran a two page
spread on a Szureti Ball held at Holy Cross Church.   My guess is that
with the revolution in Hungary, Hungarians doing anything any where was
considered news worthy.
 
I have attached photos of the original article, scans of the individual
pictures and a transcript of the text and captions.

Early learning the fine points of the Grape Festival Dance, gay little Betty and James Soter take a cue from Mom & Pop.
