Stanley Hubka Dies

The death on Tuesday of Stanley Hubka 61, removed a member of the Hubka brothers' brass band, a rural farmers' organization made up of the family of that name living in the community. The band disbanded some years ago, formerly played at numorous local entertainments, and often at more distant places.

Funeral services will be Friday at 2 p.m. at the Bacholor-Faulkner chapel, and burial will be in the National Cemetery south of Narka.

Stanley was in a band with his other brothers called "The Hubka EIGHT BROTHERS BAND." The Belleville Telescope, April 6, 1922 issue had this article about them.
