association was formally registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
According
to Mr. Melchor A. Hasta, DBI’s business manager, the contest is
a fund-raising project the proceeds of which shall be used for the
purchase of medicines and dental supplies for the civic action
this coming Black Saturday.

participating in this contest but as of this writing only six

LITERARY
The
Lost Dream
by:
Sevega
Many
summers, I dreamt underneath
the
sun, the moon, and the stars,
I
gather seashells . . . yet . . .
Nowhere to find,
depleted
sea . . . thy bounty lost,
On
cold season, I walked underneath,
the
luxuriant abaca lane,
I
gather agotay . . . yet…
Nowhere to find,
depleted farm… thy bounty lost,
In
my dreams,
I saw the aching leaves of summer,
I saw the fall of the conquered
Faunas and Floras,
Never to smell, the sweet scented miliguas
Never to see, the swaying blooming melendres
Never to
taste, the ripe yellow layuan
And the
pinkest sweet tangola
The spreading
net fruit laptokay
I saw the
massacre of our rivers,
I saw the mass suffocation, of:
Damagan,
Labanay,
Dalupingan,
Tugos,
Pokot
and
tibayon
They were gang-raped for sudden death,
I lost my beautiful DREAMS.
