POLISH NATIONAL ALLIANCE

POLISH LITERARY GYMNASTIC ASSOCIATION GROUP 750

Throughout the years, the Polish National Alliance Group 750 has earned for itself a major niche in the community.
Its many achievements, loyalty, and dedication has created a warm spot in the hearts of the people, regardless of their race, color, or creed.

Organized December 15, 1905, the first meeting was held at 612 Indiana Avenue under the leadership of Mr. John Piotrzkowski.
Present were: Theodore Piotrzkowski, Sofja Makrucka, Ignacy Piotrzkowski, Jan Makrucki, Jan Gebetowicz, Joseph Gebetowicz, Adolph Lutoslawski, Piotr Anuszkiewicz and Stanislaw Szulc.
The purpose of the meeting was to build an organization that would help preserve their Polish heritage, give the members social outlets and to help raise the moral
and educational standards of the Polish-American youth of Glassport.

On April 27, 1912, a charter was granted by the Honorable Judge Davis of the Allegheny County Common Pleas Court. The building known as the "Glytheraw Hotel"
located at the corner of Indiana and Sixth Street, was purchased for the sum of $3,900. The outstanding event of the year was a field meet under the sponsorship of the "Sokols," a gymnastic team.

During the years of World War I, many drives were sponsored for the benefit of the suppressed people of Poland. Contributions were made to the "Polish Army" relief and to the "Golden Polish Book".
Thirty-two thousand dollars was collected for the sale of "Polish War Bonds". The membership was very active with the American Red Cross and gave services of food,
clothing, medicine and finances during the time of the "Flu Epidemic," and the strike.

Feeling the need to become involved in Civic Affairs, the "Polish American Political Club" was formed in 1923. It had a membership of over 400;
congressmen, judges, senators, legislators, doctors, lawyers, teachers, business executives, mill supervisors, nurses, people of every walk of life.
Everyone worked diligently in promoting various activities for the youth and for the community.

World War II found the organization busy with Bond Drives, Scrap Drives, Overseas Packages, Family Activities and all community projects that supported the War Effort.
Ninety-two men and women served in the Armed Forces.
Six were killed in action.

In following years, the Association has sponsored Little League baseball and football teams, basketball and golf teams, family picnics, civic and religious programs, parades,
and testimonial banquets honoring many professional, business, and political individuals plus sports figures. They participate in all community dedications
(school, churches, post office, fire halls, American Legion, swimming pool, etc.). They support "Alliance College," the finest Polish College in the country.
The members are justly proud of their history of 71 years of service.

Their slogan is:

" UNITE AND WORK IN PEACE, BECAUSE IN UNITY THERE IS STRENGTH AND POWER-THROUGH WHICH WE WILL GAIN HONOR AND DISTINCTION FOR OUR COUNTRY AND OUR ORGANIZATIONS".
