St. John's WA 'Barvinoch Branch'| April Meeting The April meeting of the St. John's Canadian, Ukrainian Women's Association *"Barvinok Branch' was held at the home of Mrs. Walter Grigorenko. The president, Mrs. Nicholas Sem- enuk, opened the meeting with prayer. The secretary's report was read by Mrs. John Goreglad. Mrs. John Dutchak and Mrs. John Masiwich presented an account of the treasury. Mrs. Dmytro Luchak spoke breifly about the life an poetic contributions of the noted Uk- rainian writer Lesia Ukrainka. Because Ukraine was constant- ly suppressed by foreign pow- ers, the culture of its people was always in a precarious po- sition. Therefore, writers like Lesia Ukrainka dared only to publish their works under a pseudonym. In her poems she pictured the doomed life of her people and showed the con- stant struggle and the great faith and hope that they held. Mrs. Luchak read the poem "Contra Spem Spero" in which the author expresses her super- human faith in hope. A discussion on the youth project followed. Mrs. Walter Kuch and Mrs. Dmytro Luchak, . John's executive, reported that the club had been granted permission to set up facilities for badminton in the parish hall. The members agreed to ac- cept the invitation from Senior CYMK to cater to its rally on June 3. The president reported that a special 'executive meeting had] been held for the purpose of choosing a date for the Ukrain- boxing, wrestling, tumbling, floor hockey, the use of thelo trampoline and many gymna- sium games. The 18 teams in the three basketball leagues have completed the championship fin- als. Basketball will be replaced by floor hockey. The LSoys' after school groups had an average attendance of 60.
