Pro la fakto, ke multe da ĉi tiu
numero aperas en la angla, mi
skribis ĉi tion en Esperanto por
ke vi povu legi almenaŭ iom da
Esperanto.
1995 komenciĝas per sufiĉe
ekscitaj informoj pri ŝancoj atingi
viajn revojn. Ĉu vi volas konkur-
si en la Olimpikoj? Aŭ, ĉu vi pli
preferas farigi Prezidanto??
Eta korekto. . . Laŭ informoj
de Catherine Schulze kaj Sybil
Harlow, la usona junulara mova-
do komencigis ne en 1992, sed
jam en 1959! Do, 1995 estos nia
36a naskiĝjaro. Ve, ni eĉ ne plu
estas junaj!
Ciukaze, la junulara movado
progresis antaŭen multe ekde la
l900aj jaroj. Ĉu vi volas helpi
USEJ-n eniri la 21 an jarcenton?
Certe vi pripensu fariĝi kandidato
por la nova estraro, kiun vi kiel
USEJ-menibro elektos ĉi-somere.
Fine, rilate la someron, vi le-
gos Jom pri du ĉefaj kongresoj ĉi-
jare. Ĉi-foje ni kunsendas la ah
igilon por la UK, por ke vi havu
okazon vidi veran Esperantan al-
iĝilon . . . kaj ĉeesti veran Esper-
antan junularan kongreson.
Do, tot ziens! (Se yi ne scias

The Scout Esperanto League,
which celebrated its 75th anni-
versary in 1993, has national
representatives in two dozen na-
tions around the globe, but not
even one representative in /the
United States, which has one of •
the largest Scout movements in
the world.
This has been a particular con-
cern to Anna Margareta Ritama-
ki, the editor of SEL's magazine,
La Skolta~Mondo. Without a"
representative or . even contact
address in the United States, it's
difficult for growing, multi-
national ' organizations such as
SEL to develop.
That*s why she and SEL are
searching now for a young
American. Scout to become the
representative of SEL in the
United States who would help
inform Americans of SEL's work
and SEL of Scout activities in
the United States, as well as col-
lect membership fees, which are
curently only $4.40 per year,'
Regardless of whether you're a
Scout or not, you might enjoy
two of SEL's publicatiohs~the
textbooks "Ĵamborea Lingvo",
an Esperanto instructional guide
specifically for Scouts (available
at ELNA's Book Service), or La
Skolta Mondo. the official organ
of SEL.                                  ft

sentative to be found, more in-

Nova Estraro funkcios ekde
la la de aŭgusto, 1995. Danke
al la nuna estraro, USEJ
daŭris jam du jarojn. Nun ni
bezonas novajn aktivulojn, no-
vajn vizaĝojn helpi la usonan
junularon atingi eĉ pli da
sukcesoj.
A changing of the guards will
take place this August when the .
new board. of USEJ begins its
1995-1997 term. . .and we're
looking for the qualified people
to fill those positions.
If you think you have the ener-
gy, enthusiasm, and dedication
to help bring USEJ closer to the
21st century, you should consid-
er becoming a candidate for the
board. As a board member,
you'll collaborate with the other
six members to strengthen USEJ
through new ideas and projects.
To become a candidate, you
should: 1) be 16 to 25 years old
(as of August 1995); 2) be a
USEJ member for at least one
year by August 1995: 3) speak,
read, and write Esperanto fairly
well; 4) attempt to remain within
North America as much as possi-
ble during the next 4wo years, so
that you can be contacted easily.
Don't let this dissuade you from
running; this simply means that
if you are going to be working
in, for example, Antarctica the
next two years, you couldn't run
this time. . . sorry.)
. You should definitely have
time on your hands if you want
to be a board member. You
won't be working everyday 9 to
5, but you will sometimes need
to spend several hours to work
on USEJ affairs, Most of the ac^
tual board work occurs via mail
and occasionally phone and e-
mail; you may also be asked to
select one particular area to con-
centrate on (for example, local
clubs, TEJO relations, etc). Re-
imbursements will be provided
as needed for any costs.
Being an USEJ board member
is   a   unique   chance   to   work.
hands-on for a national youth or-
ganization. Your work will.have
effects, not only on Esperantists
from Washington to Florida,.but
also in Belgium, Canada, Iran ...
few other organizations give you
such an opportunity. Plus, you'll
be able to showcase and use your
talents through your work,
whether you're a budding artist, a
clever salesperson or a meticu-
lous researcher.
If you're' interested, write to
USEJ's CO for a candidate form
as. soon as possible. The final
list of candidates will be com-
piled in mid-April, so get your
request out soon!                    0t
La "Sunluma Stato" Florido nun havas propran tutŝtatan Es-
perantan ligon, danke al la klopodoj de USEJ-aktivulo tie, Guy
Menahem.
Florida finally has an Esperanto group, and it's off and running!
The Florida Esperanto League, a 30-rhember organization which in-
cludes Esperantists of all ages from throughout the state, was recently
featured on "Ten Teen News" (a Tampa Bay teen news show).
Founder Guy Menaherh was interviewed about Esperanto, the move-
ment and the newly formed League.
Spurred by its "celebrity status", FEL has already published the first
issue of its newsletter, La Verda- Stelo, and is currently planning a
Kongreseto from April 7-9 in Clearwater, Florida, We cordially invite
everybody (particularly those in the Southeast) to participate in this
celebration ofthe International Language.                                      "ft.

Saint Petersburg and New
York City may not have much in
common, but both have the hon-
or of hosting two important Es-
peranto conferences — the World
Congress of Young Esperantists
and the US National Conference,
respectively.
43rd US National
Bsperanto Conference
15-18 July 1995
NewYorkCity,NY    .
The Esperanto Society of New
York, which only last year was
chosen as the best local Esperan-
to group, is hosting this year's
National Convention.
Although the Big Apple al-
ready has plenty to see and do,
the Convention itself will also
offer a variety of serious and
not-so-serious programs in nia
kara Lingvo.
Once again, USEJ will be there
and a youth program is planned.
Hopefully, since the Northeast is
the home to a large number of
USEJ members, we can expect a
fairly good crowd of young Es-
perantists. Plus, with the prox-
imity of Quebec, maybe even a
few of bur "neighbors" from
KEJO will be able to stop by.
51st World Congress of
Young Esperantists
31 July-7 August 1995
St Petersburg, Russia
A highly experienced team of
Russian, young people will be
planning this year's IJK, which,
oddly, is only the first ever.to
take place in Russia.
The team is placing a special
•emphasis on active participation,
not only, in the UK, but also the
Esperanto movement itself, thus
the theme "Aktivismo: Junularo
kiu nenur dancas".
.Since the Rusian people prides
itself on the arts, cultural and ar-
tistic events will take center
stage at the 51st IJK. In fact, the
first persons to register for the
IJK were members of the Swed-
ish rock group Persone.           ik

SENESPERANTO

HE'S NO ZAMENHOF...
Jules Mino .(who becomes
known as. Dr. Senesperanto)
is a hopeless student of
languages who can't keep out
of trouble. He once translated
"carpe diem" as "ten
freshwater fish" and that was
on a good day. After being
thrown (literally) out of school,
Mino creates a cumbersome
language called Minoestica.
Through a clerical error at the
United Nations, Minoestica is
adopted as an international
language. World War III
begins when a diplomat from
Israel accidently asks an
American ambassador to
declare war on Turkey ("Wigi
og-olobi             snabwimblerstik
turkinstin?") instead of asking
him to pass the mustard
("Wig oo                             ig-olobi
sriapwimperstin urkinstik?")
Cast with complete unknowns,
Dr. Senesperanto still
contains many hilarious
moments           despite        its
somewhat predictable plot.

The 4th Esperantist Chess
Olympiad (the "Green Olym-
pics") will be held July 7-16,
1995, in the Hungarian town of
Kalocsa. The Olympics is a
chess team tournament, with
teams from various countires,
mainly from Central and Eastern
Europe.
An American (or at least half-
American!) team ha's competed
in each Olympiad since the 1st
Olympiad (Kalocsa -'83), then
again in Poland (Siedjce, '87)
and Czechoslovakia (Podebrady,
'91).
With four players per team, we
hope to compete this year with
two teams from our side of the
Atlantic! You don't have to be a
chess master (we are mostly
amateurs) or totally fluent in Es-
peranto either.
Give it a try, because the next
chance you'll have won't be until
