PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

It's amazing how rapidly we are approaching the halfway point of the year 2000 and the end of this fiscal AHEPA year! 1 will keep this brief and to the point. With one month to go, I would like you to re-focus on our upcoming events:

* In June we will hold an initiation of new members. Applications are still being sought for new and transfer members.

* Our annual golf tournament will take place on Saturday, June 17th. We need golfers, sponsors and volunteers! We need your help to make this another successful year. both socially and to the benefit of the charitable foundation.

* Chapter #505 Scholarship applications are due by June 15th. Please distribute the applications to every Greek Orthodox or AHEPA-related candidate you know. It's absolutely incredible how few respondents we receive, relative to the effort we make to inform people of this community benefit. There are three Greek Orthodox churches and three AHEPA chapters alone, in San Diego County! Get the word out!

* AHEPA Day is typically in May however, notification came late this year. So we are postponing it until later this summer, in order to better plan.

Not only does the fiscal year fly by, but so did the past three years as President. It has been an honor to serve you during this period. I have personally enjoyed working together with an extraordinary group of individuals, primarily within my chapter, as well as at other levels within the AHEPA organization. You are exemplary and inspiring (and fun too). I feel I have learned and benefited from my involvement tremendously. Most of all, I am thankful that an organization such as AHEPA still exists to carry the torch for promoting Hellenic culture through the present and hopefully to the future. And I challenge others to increase their participation and bring their own contribution for the improvement of the organization.

Art Pathe

It's that time again! Seems as if it were just yesterday...we were basking in the sun, organizing those foursomes, counting our Mulligan tickets, dreaming of that hole-in-one and heading for the green. But, alas, the George Polos Chapter 505, 9^th Annual Golf Tournament is just around the corner. On Saturday, June 17, 2000, we will meet again at the DoubleTree Golf Resort in picturesque Carmel Valley for a day of comradery and fun with our fellow Ahepans, family and friends.

Our Tournament has set the trend in our community for being one of the best attended and most awaited events of the year. Yet, it also serves as a significant tribute to those who dedicated their lives to AHEPA. Our tournament honors our fallen Brothers who contributed their time and support to our Chapter. Among those named in memorial are Brothers George Manos and George Louis (both of whom were founding members of the George Polos Chapter); Dr. Costas Lyrintzis (a professor who was brutally murdered on the San Diego State University campus); Brother Bill Manos (a long time and honored member of AHEPA); and Brother John Deveros (an extremely hard working and integral contributor to the Chapter, and the past president of the Pan-Arcadian Federation). These brothers are fondly remembered during our Golf Tournaments and are reminders of how our brotherhood has prospered as a result of their efforts and dedication.

Because of our fallen Brothers' level of devotion coupled with the tireless work of our growing membership, we are proud to announce that, our yearly tourney has provided overwhelming financial support for our community. Since its inception, the proceeds of the tournaments have gone towards scholarships to worthy students of the AHEPA Family and Greek Orthodox church communities. Additionally, your donations have provided substantial assistance to various philanthropic causes, including the victims of the recent earthquakes in Greece; the AHEPA Hellenic Heritage Foundation's floats in the Tournament of Roses Parade; our local church parishes (including the building funds of St. Gregory of Nyssia and Ss. Constantine and Helen and towards the repair of the altar icon of St. Spyridon). Your contributions have also supported the local Greek Folk Dance Groups in their quest to compete regionally in the annual Greek Folk Dance Competitions. However, the aim of AHEPA is not limited to our local causes. Your dollars are helping to fund the International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) and Project Mexico.

As proud as we are of our accomplishments, we still need your help. The 9^th Annual George Polos Chapter 505 Golf Tournament only promises to be as successful as we make it! Only through your support and leg work in gathering your friends and family to compete in our Tournament will we be able to have yet another successful year. This event has brought so many of us together in the spirit of Brotherhood -- let's continue our work and make June 17th a banner day!

The entry form is attached to the flyer, in this issue, -- won't you join us and be a part of this great effort?

One day a father and his rich family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing him how poor people can be. They spent a day and a night at the farm of a very poor family. When they returned from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"

"Very good Dad!"

"Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked.

"Yeah!"

"And what did you learn?"

The son replied: "I saw that we have a dog at home and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden; they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden; they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard; they have a whole horizon."

When the little boy finished speaking, his father was speechless. His son added, "Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are."

Important support is growing for Greece's bid to recover the classical friezes and sculptures removed from the Parthenon by British diplomat Lord Elgin nearly 200 years ago and sold by him to the British Museum where they have since been on display.

One of the most powerful advocacies of the return of the Parthenon Marbles to Greece, where they would be housed in a new state-of-the-art museum to be built near the Acropolis, was an editorial in the Economist magazine of March 18 which pointed out that, while a British parliamentary committee is examining the issue, a straw poll of MPs in the House of Commons, showed a 66 to 34 majority in favor of Greece's cause.

While conceding that the return to their original homes of

treasures from the world's museums is undesirable as a general rule, and while allowing also that the British claim to legal title would be hard to challenge in court, the Economist argues that the Parthenon Marbles are an exceptional case, mainly because they are "a special sort of work: an integral whole that was broken up...the carvings form a single story that ran around the frieze-line of the Parthenon temple on the Acropolis. This provides the best reason for returning them to Athens, where they could be seen in something close to their intended context"

The editorial conceded that there are valid arguments on both sides, but calls for an open debate on the issue. It concludes: "If the select committee reports favorably on return, the British government would have much to gain by allowing a free vote on the Elgin Marbles in the House of Commons."

A British parliamentary committee, headed by its chairman Gerald Kaufman, met in Athens on March 28 with Foreign Minister George Papandreou and Culture Minister Elizabeth Papazoi, who reiterated Greece's position which does not favor the general return of cultural treasures from foreign museums, but claims that the marbles removed by Lord Elgin are unique as the paramount elements of the Parthenon edifice. That position was urged in a memorandum delivered to the committee by the Greek government on March 9. The document also listed the Marbles now housed in the British Museum and described the damage caused by the cleaning process in 1937-1938.

The parliamentary committee is broadly charged with enquiring into all aspects of displaced cultural property, including those "historically removed" and "acquired as a result of illicit trade."

In the U.S., Congressman Donald Payne (D-NJ) introduced on March 28 H. Con. Res. 294 expressing the sense of Congress that the Parthenon Marbles should be returned to Greece before the Olympics in 2004, after negotiations between the governments of Greece and the United Kingdom.(Taken from the news review of the Embassy of Greece)

The World Health Organization recently published a report on the current overall state of health of Europeans. Compared to the rest of the European Union citizens, the number of Greeks dying from heart failure and various heart diseases is on the rise. The EU average is 291 deaths per 100,000 people over the age of 64. For Greece, it is 340 - and climbing. This is attributed, first and foremost, to an increase in fat consumption.

During an address at the University of Thessaloniki, where he was accepting an honorary doctorate, renowned composer Mikis Theodorakis (whose name was also recently submitted to the Swedish Academy for the Nobel Peace Prize), spoke of "defending Hellenism." In the speech, the

composer/social activist defined what constitutes a Greek. Though a little tautological, it is a definition worth quoting. "A Greek," he said, "is a person who through her/his learning and passion proves that s/he is Greek."

The much-publicized debate between the candidates in the recent Greek election was (by all accounts) boring; the campaign promises were (as usual) platitudinous and hollow; and the results of the election were in themselves unexciting and predictable. But amidst the drabness there was a 59-year-old candidate named Demosthenes Vergis, who dressed either in a toga or in sparkling and shocking pink. He made outrageous speeches about his sexual prowess, about his 35 illegitimate children and his libidinous platform. His campaign posters showed him wearing nothing but a smirk, and his kiosk, in the center of Athens, attracted both the curious and the curiosities of the city. Passing taxi drivers honked their horns and greeted him with alacrity and approval. Vergis is also known as one who writes his party's initials (The Ecological Union) on the bare buttocks of strippers, and for having bare-chested women pass his literature to pedestrians. One of his posters, from a previous campaign, showed him absolutely naked, and in a state of arousal, standing over the islet of Imia (the deserted islet that almost caused another Greco-Turkish war) with an inscribed invitation to Turkey's female prime minister at the time, Tansu Ciller, to "Come and Get It" [the Spartan "Melon Lave"].

The late scholar George P.Savvidis had coined the term "kavafogeni poeimata" (Cavafy-inspired poetry), that is, verse that imitates or is inspired by the great Alexandrian genius. Now, the Greek Language Center (Kentro Ellinikis Glossas) has just published a volume of such poems. The book is comprised of representative pieces from some 135 poets (spanning a period of 70 years and a geographic area of 30 countries) who have written poems either to or about Constantine P. Cavafy, or poems based on Cavafy themes and techniques. Among the poets included are the Nobelist Joseph Brodsky (Russia), Tserdet Andan (Turkey), James Merrill (U.S.A.), Zbigmew Herbert (Poland) Farouk Sousa (Egypt) and Bertolt Brecht (Germany).

Another Diaspora Greek honoring Hellas is javelin-thrower Mirela Maniani Tzelili. She now holds the world record for women's javelin, after the World Track and Field Federation recognized her 67.09 meter throw in Seville, Spain: The World Federation recognized her performance after judging as invalid the record made by Norwegian Hatestad (68.19 meters) because she did not undergo drug testing after her throw.

The University of Patras bestowed an honorary doctorate degree to author Vasilis Vasilikos, the author of the celebrated Z and of dozens of other works. Vasilikos, who now lives mostly in Paris, was moved by the award - the first doctorate ever bestowed on him.

A grammar school soon to he built in Cameroon will carry the name "Thessaloniki." The school is being erected with the help of the northern Greek city; and Antonis Mouzelas, the president of "The Friends of Africa," a Greek charitable organization, recently visited Cameroon to meet with officials and discuss the details about the building of the new school.

Tripolis is the first city in all of Greece to have a school completely serviced by solar energy. It is a high school (the 2nd Enieo Lykio) just outside the center of the city. The latest equipment in solar technology was used by the Tomen-Alexopoulos Power Development Co.

Vangelis Papathanasiou, known to the world simply as "Vangelis," will compose the music for the closing ceremonies of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. Vangelis won the Academy Award for his score in the British film Chariots of Fire.

As the saying goes,"it couldn't happen to a nicer guy." I am referring to the almost-octogenarian poet Dimitris Tsaloumas, whom I met and befriended about six years ago when we both were guests of the Greek Foreign Ministry in a ten-day conference of Hellenists at Delphi. Tsaloumas is now considered one of Australia's greatest living poets. Though most of his verse is written in Greek, he has been widely translated through out Australia, and his last two volumes are written originally in English. In 1983 he won the first literary prize for his book To Parateritirio, after it was translated into English. In 1994 he won the "Wesley Bright Award" and was praised for his great contribution in Australian letters. Now, I've learned that his volume The Harbor (To Limani) won the first poetry prize in the "Adelaide 2000 Cultural Festival" over 82 other competitors. As one who has admired and reviewed his sensitive stanzas, I can indeed say: It couldn't happen to a more talented guy.

Not to be outdone after all the other apologies recently (German President Rau's mea culpa for the massacre at Kalavryta in 1943, Clinton's "so sorry" for this country's tacit support of the junta, to name a few), Archbishop Christodoulos told listeners in his monthly radio talk show on Sunday, April 1, that it was time for the Greek Church to apologize for any undue interference it had made in Greek politics during the preceding century. Specifically, among other incidents, he apologized for what had transpired between the Church and Eleftherios Venizelos, the legendary statesman under whose leadership Greece emerged victorious from the Balkan Wars. In 1916, the then-Greek Archbishop Theoklitos, at the King's behest, had anathematized Venizelos.

So much for xenophobia: The farmers in the nomarchy of Pella have made a formal request to the Ministry of Public Order to delay the apprehension and expulsion of illegal Albanians until the asparagus-picking season is over...

Don't miss the boat.

Remember that we are all in the same boat.

Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.

Stay fit. When you're 600 years old someone may ask you to do something really big.

Don't listen to critics, just get on with the job that needs to be done.

Build your future on high ground.

For safety's sake travel in pairs.

Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on board with cheetahs.

When you're stressed, float awhile.

Remember the Ark was built by amateurs, the Titanic by professionals.

Many will be shocked to find when the day of judgment nears,

That there is a special place in heaven set aside for volunteers,

Furnished with big recliners and foot stools,

Where there is no committee chairman, no group leaders or car pools,

No eager team that needs a coach, no bazaar or bake sale.

There will be nothing to staple, not one thing to fold or mail.

Telephone lists will be outlawed, but a finger snap will bring,

Cold drinks and gourmet dinners, and are treats fit for a King.

You ask. Who'll serve these privileged few, and work for all they're worth?

Why, all those who reaped the benefits and are once volunteered on Earth.

How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand.

Greek coffee is made in a "briki," a longhandled metal coffee pot set directly over the source of heat. There are different sizes of briki according to the number of cups of coffee you want to make. Best of all is to use a small briki and make each cup separately so the froth' is just right. In a very old book from Constantinople, the preparation of a delicious cup of coffee is described as follows:

For one medium-sweet cup of coffee use:

1 heaped teaspoon of coffee

1 rounded teaspoon of sugar

1 small coffee cup of water.

Put the sugar and coffee in the briki. Add a little tepid water and stir vigorously. Put the briki over the flame and heat it at a very low temperature for at least 15 minutes.

As soon as the foam rises to the lip spoon it into the cup. Reheat the coffee for 2-3 minutes and add the remainder of the water to the cup.

If you are making 2-4 cups of coffee, share the foam out among all the cups and proceed as above.

Serve the coffee with a glass of water and a small serving of something sweet, usually sweet cookies (koulourakia) or a spoon sweet (both of which are eaten before the coffee).
