2 PACC Members in Contest for President Position

Camden County Record - November 25, 1976

A spirited election for the presidency of the Polish American Citizens' Club looms as a definite possibility for the first time in 10 years.

The contest between Victor Anyzek, Jr., and Leonard Drozd as head of the South Jersey fraternal and civic organization for a one-year term will most assuredly bring out the vote.

The last time the membership had to make a top choice was back in 1967 when Bruno Paprzycki dueled with Stanley Mojta for the club's leadership.

Nominated without opposition for the other five table positions are Bruno Paprzycki, a former president, as first vice president; Charles Wisniewski, second vice president; Joseph Jablonski, financial secretary; Anthony Urbanowicz, treasurer, and Walter Piatek, recording secretary.

Thirteen nominees for the directorship may produce some lively campaigning for individuals since the top eight vote getters will be the winning electees. The director board has 16 members consisting of an equal number elected and appointed by the incoming or incumbent president.

The candidates for director named by the Nominating Committee are George Plocharski, Steve Duda, Joe Sacilowski, Richard Kozieja, Chester (Pat) Jablonski, John Tureck, Henry (Icy) Olszewski, and John Filipek.

Nominated from the floor were Eddie Czech, Stanley K. Kaminski, Henry Biegalski, Big Ed Bukowski and Bart Paradise.

The election day will be Dec. 14, the second Tuesday of the month.
