TWENTY-FOUR THE BULLETIN OF THE CATHOLIC LAYMENS ASSOCIATION OF GEORGIA AUGUST 30, 19S2 K. of C. in Atlanta Hosts to Havailanfa Visitors From Cuba ATLANTA, Ga. — Inaugurating this year’s gala “Havalanta” cele bration, a dance was given in com pliment to the visitors from Cuba at the Knights of Columbus Home on the evening of August 26, and a week of competition in swimming, golf, baseball, volleyball, yachting, fencing, bowling and skeet and pistol shooting is following. Atlan ta has won three of the past meets and Havana has won one — first year’s competition in Havana. Many business and civic leaders and their wives accompanied the Cuban athletes to Atlanta. Georgia state officials, Atlanta civic lead ers and various business and pro fessional leaders are joining in welcoming the Cuban delegation. The Northside Kiwanis Club first sponsored the international com petition, which resulted from an idea of Harry Glaney, of Atlanta, former Olympic swimming star, but it became so broad and signifi- j cant in scope that other civic and fraternal organizations have since entered the picture. Deputy Grand Knight Michael F. Weidl, Jr., introduced the idea of the K. of C. serving as hosts for j an evening for the Cuban visitors during the regime of William Coyle as grand knight, so again this year Atlanta Council is offer ing hospitality. Grand Knight Dwight Hollowell named Harry Donohue as chairman of the Havalanta party, with Henry J. Taylor and other members assist ing.
