CONCERT ARTISTS HERE

Former Hope Students

Pass Air Corps Tests

Annual Week of Prayer,

sponsored by the Y organiza-

tions of the college, has been

set for the week of February

2, it was announced today.

Each session will convene at

11 o'clock in the morning in

Memorial Chapel. Procedure this year will be con-

trary to that of the past, when one speaker held the rostrum for the five sessions. The new plan will enable four different persons to appear before the student body, each having a topic connected with a central theme.

The theme, as chosen by the Y cabinets with the aid of Dr. Ray-mond Drukker, secretary of Young People's work. Board of Education, RCA, will be: "Putt ing Christian-ity to Work Now."

Open Forum on Tuesday

Dr. Drukker will be general leader of Prayer Week, giving one of the addresses, and holding an open forum on Tuesday evening, Feb. 3. This conference, which is held for the advantage of all stu-dents, will take the place of the regular Y meetings.

On Monday morning. Rev. Louis Benes, pastor of the Fifth Re-formed church of Grand Rapids, will address the student body on the topic, "The Disciplines T h a t Make Life Dynamic Today." Tues-day and Wednesday will bring Rev. Samuel Zwemer, former missionary to Arabia, to the chapel to speak on, "The Discovery of Our Re-sources in God for Life Today," and "The Declaration of the Faith for Today." On Thursday Dr. John A. Dykstra of the Central Reformed church in Grand Rapids will discuss "The Development of a Christian Personality for Today." And on Friday morning Dr. Drukker will take up the subject, "The Decision That Matters Most Today."

Given for Student Body These meetings will take the

place of the regular chapel service but are more definitely arranged as a spiritual stimulus for the stu-dent body. Those in charge of the program have expressed the sin-cere hope that the week will give added inspiration to all students in the expression of their Christian

faith.

Information from the Naval Air Corps states that Edgar Dibble, Palmyra, N. Y.; William Pelon, Holland, Mich.; Wallace Riemers-ma, Grand Haven, Mich., and Leas Wallace, Brockport, N. Y., have all entered air stations as advanced aviation cadets. Dibble and Pelon, who are members of the Mercury squadron, and Wallace Riemersma are in Corpus Christi, Texas. Leas Wallace is in Pensa-cola, Fla. After eight more months of extensive training these men will receive their wings and com-missions as flying ensigns in the United States Naval Reserve.

Dr. Blocker Speaks; Y Sends Out Three Deputation Teams

YMCA initiated its program for the new year with a joint meeting with the YWCA on Jan. 6 with Prof. Paul Hinkamp as the speaker. A large attendance greeted his message which he based on the ideal of what the good college stu-dent should be like. For his outline he chose the trinity of body, mind, and spirit which is found on the Y emblem.

The Trapp Family Singers, who, under the direction of Dr. Franz Wasner, will present their varied concert of classical and folk music in Hope Memorial chapel at 8:15 tonight.

Senior Class President John Vis-ser announced the committee who will select the play for this year. James Baar will be chairman and those on his committee are Jean-nette Rylaarsdam, Ruth Stegenga, Marguerite Hadden, Nola Nies, Herbert Leigh-Manuell and George Vander Hill. The committee an-nounced that the name of the play will be given in the next Anchor.

Squad meetings are being held two and three afternoons each week since vacation, featuring prac-tice debates, discussions, and de-livery drills.

W A L to Organize Class In Knitting, First Aid, And Home Nursing

WAL delegates, Doris Vander-

Borgh, Beth Marcus, Jean Ruiter,

and Louise Becker traveled to East

Lansing last Friday night to at-

tend a convention there Saturday,

Jan. 10, of all Michigan colleges

and universities. The discussion

concerned women's work on the

campus and what college women

can do in the present crisis.

The WAL has also assumed the

responsibility of organizing on the

campus with the help of the de-

fense council, classes in knitting,

first aid, and home nursing. Classes in surgical dressings will in all probability begin next week. Watch for fur ther announcement.

loved folk songs, chorals, madri-

gals, great songs of classic and ro-

mantic composers, student songs,

and yodels.

The wife, five daughters, and two

sons of Baron Georg von Trapp,

led by the gifted young composer.

Dr. Franz Wasner, compose the

talented singing group. Although

they have a record of over six hun-

dred concerts in Europe and in

America to their credit and have

been cited by recognized publica-

tions for their ability, these artists still retain, on the concert stage, the same personal joy in singing which characterized the family music-making in their own home.

Praised by Lotte Lehmen

Lotte Lehman, the beloved so-prano, who heard the Trapp family sing in their Tyrolean home and first started them on a far-reach-ing, professional career, says of them, "I am proud of the success of my friends, the Trapp Family Singers. I knew that they would capture the admiration and friend-ship of America, as they captured mine."

Each member of the family plays one or two old instruments, and they are the first group to present Elizabethan block flutes, the wood-winds of the fifteenth century, in public concerts. They are the moth-er, Maria Augusta; Agathe and Johanna, the sopranos; Hedwig; Maria, the contralto; Martina, still in pigtails; Werner, who plays the viol di gamba and sings a melo-dious tenor; and handsome Rupert, who sings bass.

Perform for Royalty

The family has sung before the Duke of Windsor, then Edward VIII, in London; for Queen Mary; and for the King and Queen of Sweden, who took them to their hearts, as do audiences every-where. During the past four years, traveling as Italian citizens, they have made successful concert tours in England, France, Belgium, Swe-den, Norway, Italy, and Holland. They have made friends, musically arid personally, in cities all over the United States.

The Trapp Family singers wear gay, authentic costumes while pre-senting their costumes. senting their program.

Soph Class Conducts Saturday Night Fun

The sophomore class reported an-o t h e r successful Saturday gym night. George Lums'den and Sally Brannock were in charge of the affair. . The commons room was open and many "fight to the finish" ping-pong games were witnessed. The volleyball games, relay races, and three-man basketball were all cheered on to breath-taking closes.

Refreshments of c a n d y a n d paddlepops were sold by the A.D.D. girls.

Efficiency Is Result of United Action, Not By One Individual

Educators are pointing out the importance of the colleges and universities in providing trained minds to aid the nation in the present emergency. We, as a part of the great college population, a re already formulating plans to prepare our-selves to meet any crisis.

Everyone in the school has registered for definite service and for instruction in classes fo r civilian defense. Every student seems eager and willing to give up his leisure t ime to aid the armed forces of the country. Buc as in every phase of life, an extreme position is dangerous. Temperance is absolutely essential for effective results.

There is a limit to the number of activities in which any one person is able to participate. In addition to the regular classes of school, the number of exua-curr icu lar activities necessary to make a well-rounded schedule, the social a f fa i r s 10 develop a popular personality, not more than two nights a week should be devoted to instructional classes. Afternoons should not be entirely given up to civilian defense.

Yes, surely, there is a duty for every student to fulfill. But the whole burden does not rest on one person. No matter how small the task, if done well the net result is great .

We must remember tha t our first obligation is to maintain our personal efficiency and morale. The nation cannot be aided by physical wrecks, but it does need the united help

of all the population.

A Goal for Education Set In Inter-American Good Will

- I t is not enough to rejoice tha t resistance to offensive fascist propaganda in the Latin American countries is bring-ing about a friendlier at t i tude toward our Good Will policy. It is the foundations of brotherhood tha t we must establish, and we have made only moderate progress in tha t direction. \^ i th the help of a realistic educational approach we hope soon to reach the cornerstone stage, a critical time in any

construction project. There is no American problem of greater significance than

our political, social, cultural and educational relations with Central and South America. The Latin American countries are a gold mine f rom which our students can derive infinite benefit and our statesmen decisive advantage in our program of peace and inter-racial reconciliation. By means ol re-search, service and leadership, our schools and colleges have it within their power to determine the destiny and happiness

of the western world. Drastic revision of our philosophy of education and the

production of a new type of classroom instructor are needed so that geography, history, l i terature and the ar ts can be given an international flavor and interpretat ion. "Ihe cam-paign fo r Paa-American u n i t ^ i s ^ a courageous effort for cooperative peace, f rom the successful outcome of which the whole world would sense a social, moral and spiritual uplif t .

Tattler More Sparklers, More Boots, More Hats; Xmas Isl Profitable

What h( iny merry men all! The password this week and last is, "Did y< u have f u n this vaca-tion and ^mve you finished your term papfcr?" The answer is yes and no —/respectively.

Your t a t t l e r knows three people who accomplished something this vacation: Melba Dings and Ruthie Vander May got those third-finger-left-hand diamonds. They've been working for so long. Junella Van-der Linden ( that ' s the twins' big sister) announced her intention of middle-aisling Friday at a ve-ry flossy tea in the Tavern. Junella June is what we'd call a really euphonious cognomen! ( F o u n d those words in a dictionary; are they good ?)

Half the girls on the campus got new boots for Christmas, il seems. The fellows got new hats — we hope. Prof. Cavanaugh says his Chris tmas hat is beautiful — but no one's seen it because he forgot it, home in Milwaukee. That ' s a good story. Between you and me, your tat t ler thinks it 's just sentimental affection for his old hat — the friend of college years and all that .

Marty Bekken's a n o t h e r lad whose Christmas hat has caused him woe. He went to the show one night in the full glory of his

Defense Business

Hits Activities

Of Us Students By George Lumsden

A little better than a week ago we dropped off the dear old Chat- j anooga Choo-choo, and climbed

. i^ht back onto the study band wagon. Maybe it 's taken a while to ,ret those stubborn old mules, Con-jen t ra te and Stick-to-it going, but nevertheless, we're u n d e r way again.

It takes such a lot of trouble to s ta r t in a f t e r a vacation any time, but this time, we're burdened with all this national defense study, and the possibilities of a change in system . . . I've heard so much ibout consen-ation of metals, late-y, that I feel as though I should

give myself over to national de-fense . . . I have so-o-o-o much iron in my system. What iron I have may not be worth a copper, but I don't zinc you tin steel any of it . . . If you do some "brass-button" will see to it that you're led away. I guess that put the cor-ner on the metal market!

Since I've been back to school, i've noticed that some of the stu-dents aren' t helping this metal Jrive at all . . . Take John Van-derbroek, for instance . . . You take him . . . I don't want him. Well, take John . . . He's shaved off that cookie duster of his. Now if that doesn't increase razor blade consumption, I don't know what will. Let's have a little coopera-tion!

Jus t a note on the possible change in schedule: If we have classes on Saturday, we wonder if the faculty-

new haberdashery. He put the lovely new ha t down in the seat beside hiip. I t was a good picture. Not 'til half through it did Marty realize with horror tha t there \va^ a lady s i t t ing next to him . . . Mar ty had visions of his last hat , which was sa t on a t one occasion by Tappan, and had never been the same since, Marty 's heart sank. But he was equal to the occasion. "Pardon me," he said hoarsely, "bu t do you realize what you're si t t ing o n ? " "Perfec t ly ," said the lady cooly. "If you mean your hat, I put it on the floor."

Mike Kleis and Bill Fassen have joined the steadies, we don't even want to guess how long it'll last! Howard Hoekje has emerged as quite a social butterfly; he was ob-served at a certain recreational gather ing giving all the girls a whirl. Marie Jenkins has decided tha t it really wasn' t very smar t to cut her top hair off into bangs, tha t ' s what Marie's mother thought , too!

The most amazing, annoying cussed and discussed development over the holidays is the silence blitzkrieg in the library. The only people who haven't been kicked out of the library since Jan. 6 are the people who haven't been in it. General consensus of opinion on this seems to be, "I hardly said a word. Boy, am I mad!"

We can't stop without divulging that when Thossy Welmers went to Wisconsin during the vacation, he called up Mayneen Jellema, just to say, "hello." What a way tha t lass has with the faculty!

The ta t t le r hopes you're all out for Civilian Defense. The girls all •e^is.ereJ for entertaining the sol-liers. Miss Lichty has vetoed en-.ertaining them in the dorm, but '.he Voorheesites won't make an issue of it — as they so reasonably •.ay to each other, "What soldiers?"

By the way, boys, it's out of date to whistle when a pretty girl walks past . These days you say, 'iioo-oop. boo-oop—, boo-oop!" You

know, Modern Design!

John Wolcott. (Something to remember during

this national emergency.) Now I have but ten minutes

more to hit the Anchor deadline. And if you don't think it 's a dead-line, you should drop over there some Saturday morning. You've probably never seen as dead a group in all your life. Imagine, pounding your fingers off up to the first joint just to push out the

gossip. Now, I've run out of talk . . . I

can probably a t t r ibute that to the defense business, too . . . I'm conserving on typewriter ribbon. See you in the psychopathic ward a f te r Exams . . . Adolf, Benito, Nikki and I will be playing tiddly-winks with manhole covers. I don't think they will do so well though. Manhole covers are pretty big jobs . . . Look at all the other big jobs they've tackled and won't be able to finish. V for Voorhees!

Faculty Vacation Hi-Lites

Scooped By Reporter Mrs. Hinga's college room-mate

must have had a t rea t when the Hinga's came to Chicago to visit her before Christmas. Mr. Hinga says, "other than that we spent a •uiet vacation in Holland enter-

taining relatives." But according to my recollections enter ta ining is no quiet or easy mat ter .

The faculty women journeyed homeward during Christmas vaca-tion — Miss Gibbs (o Shawano, Wis., Miss Lichty to Des Moines, la., Miss Conner to Delta, Ohio, Miss Oggel to Orange City, la., and Miss Ross to Traverse City, Mich.

Prof. Bast entertained a cold and a sore throat during vacation. The sore throat limited him to making one speech, he says. However, he did read three books and last but not least — he made a mode* air-plane.

The Lampens spent their vaca-tion in Holland as did Mrs. Snow and Miss Boyd.

The Kleis family also remained in Holland. But what weird rumors are circulat ing? We understand that Mr. Kleis stood on his head just for Rosie Seith's benefit. It seems his next feat will be to stand on '.us head while drinking a malted. The object is to discover

whether he can swallow upside down.

Mr. Schier attended the National Speech convention held in Detroit. He will certainly have many new ideas.

We ga ther that Mrs. Pr ins has been rushing around in her usual way during this vacation. She en-tertained her sister, Miss Nella Meyers, a former French teacher here. Mrs. Prins said, "I didn't have time to eat or sleep dur ing this vacation." What is this we hear about Mrs. Pr ins ' daughter receiving a bass viol for Christ-mas?

One of Wisconsin's sons re turned when Mr. Cavanaugh went to Mil-waukee for vacation. We hear Mr. Cavanaugh has a brother in Sing Sing — he's a doctor there.

Hope Travels To Alma, Tuesday, Jan Broncos Edge Dutch In Close Scrap, 47-43

Gensichen Gets 32 Points to Set New Record for Western

By JACKSON

The raging blizzard wasn' t the only thing the Hope college bas-ketball team experienced Tuesday night when it went to Kalamazoo to play the Western Michigan col-

lege team. Hope, although giving a good

account of itself, also ran up against a s c o r i n g "blizzard" in the person of Harold Gensichen, sophomore forward who scored 32 points to pace his team in edging out a 47-43 victory.

The tall basketball s tar netted his points on 13 field goals and six free throws. The 32 p o i n t s was a new scoring record for a single game at Western Michigan.

Hope took the lead at the start of the game and left the floor at the half-time with a two-point ad-

vantage, 20-18.

In a fas t c o n t e s t , Western climbed into the lead a f t e r four minutes of the second half . The longest lead the Broncos attained

was 37-30. Without Gensichen, it a p p a r -

ently would have been a walk-away for the Dutch as Ballard, other Bronco forward, was held to 3 points. Center Loranger 's scor-ing was confined to a single field goal and the highest Broncho scor-er next to Gensichen collected 5

markers. The D u t c h hit 9 foul shots of

18 while Western snagged 11 of 18. Af te r taking a 41-34 lead. West-

ern Michigan saw a Hope rally paced by Forward G e o r g e Dal-man pare down the Bronco margin toward the close of the game.

Dalman was high s c o r e r for Hope with 11 points. Due to the wintry weather, Hope's basketball team remained overnight in Kala-

mazoo. HOPE FG FT TP Dalman, f 4 3 11 Van Wieren, f 3 0 6 Visser, c 1 0 2 Vanden Berg, g 2 1 5 Kleinjans, g 3 0 6 De Vette, c 2 2 6 Baas, f 1 2 4 Muller, g 1 1 ^

Dutch Edge G R U In Rough Game, Dec. 30

For the second time in three weeks, Hope left Grand Rapids University 23 points behind at the end of the ball game, by a score of 54-31, Tuesday, Dec. 30.

The game started at a furious pace, which was maintained until early in the second half when the Lancers seemed to fall to pieces while the score piled up against them — 33 points in the second period. Ets Kleinjans broke the ice as the game started, followed by a set shot by Ken Vanden Berg. The half sounded with Hope ahead 21-12.

Hopemen Come Back Hard Af te r the intermission the Dutch

really applied the pressure, and chalked up 11 points before G.R.U. scored on a charity toss. The re-serves were sent in, but the slaugh-ter continued unabated as most every man scored. Dick Higgs and Paul Van Dort each contributed two baskets apiece for the reserves.

Vanden Berg piled up 12 points — 5 buckets and 2 fouls, while Ets Kleinjans tallied 10. For the Lancers, Jackie Barrows was high with 8. The game was hard and rough on the part of both teams. Hope scored eight foul shots out of 13 at tempts, while the Lancers scored but one out of 6.

Kibitzer. by Ken Poppen

Probably the most interest-ing game Hope has played this year is the one w i t h West-e r n. Accord-ing to Coach Hinga, H o p e played better

ball there th is year than they did last year, but still were beaten. They were beaten partly by a lad named Gensichen, who piled up the incredible total of 32 points to set a new individual scoring record for Western Michigan. The rest of the team averaged one field goal per per-son! . . . Wayne university used a different s t ra tegy: according to coach, thpy talked Gensichen ragged, and Wayne walked off the floor ahead . . . They tell us that during one of Hills-dale's last games, the heating system in their gym went on the blink, and water dripped f rom the pipes onto the floor. To offset this, the windows were opened ( temperature outside: 14 degrees) to freeze the water, and the players came out in ear-muffs and sweat pants! . . . Hope's varsity basketballers are

showing great improvement in

the last few games. The quality

of ball played at Western leads

us to believe tha t we may ex-

pect Alma to have trouble

with the Dutch. In any case, the

outcome of the game will prob-

ably determine the team to

whom the honors will fall at

the close of the MIAA race, or

at least give us a pretty good

idea . . . Kalamazoo presents a s t rong squad again this year. They uncorked a surprise last year when they edged Hope, 36-35; Adrian suffered at the hands of the Hornets this year, 44-26 . . . On the fifteenth of this month, the Dutch will be hosts to Albion at the local armory. They should not present too much difficulty to the Hopemen as Hillsdale has already met and overcome them. The Britons lost considerably because of the draf t and g r a d u a t i o n , etc. Every coach faces problems such as these, and a year or two might shif t the "balance of power" in several major sports. It depends to some extent upon the hand of fa te — or the hand of Uncle

Sam!

Not much copy this week, not even a story about Gus. By the by, coeds, our own Gus will be leaving us soon to take up a teaching and coaching position in a Grand Rap-ids high school. G'bye, Gus, it's been nice having you and your good-natured help in all these

WAA activities.

Out in the lead in the basketball league at this writing are Daugh-er ty ' s Tigers (Rah, rah! Tigers!) who cleaned up Kremers' Bears in a close-scored, good, swift game— even Jack said so! And Brouwers' Wolverines forfeited to Rameau's Wildcats. But being sportsmen at heart , the Wildcats divvied up, and with the Wolverine players there were enough gals for two teams and the material for a very good game. Last night Borgman's Lions took on Kamps' Panthers and Daugherty 's Tigers met up with I Rameau's Wildcats. No scores at

this writing.

Bowling continues at Lievense's Friday afternoons — games at two for twenty cents. Inter-sorority

leagues are not organized as yet. Remember tha t All-Coed Play

Day that we mentioned in the last issue? It will come off the first Saturday of the new semester. All girls will participate in badminton, ping-pong, volleyball, basketball and all — just for fun. And fun it'll be. WAA really has something here to maintain, and all coeds will find it profitable for fun and health — to exercise off a f ew abuses of the Christmas vacation in the line of too many chocolates and an over-abundance of turkey and dressing.

A closing thought — Were you in "Y" the night Rev. Hinkamp talked? Then take a pointer. Y'know, we owe it not only to our-selves, but to our God to keep our bodies in good health. He gave us this marvelous mechanism which is our body, and it belongs to him. Abuse and neglect of it are just no go. We all come in for a share of blame when we think of how we neglect healthful exercise, fresh air and sleep. WAA provides good opportunities for us to perform our duty, so — All out for good health!

Hope Trounces Dales In First MIAA Contest

Second Team Led By Mulder Play Large Part In 61-38 Win

Hope college got off to a flying s ta r t in the MIAA race here last Friday night by soundly whipping Hillsdale 61-38 in Hope's initial conference game. The Dutch raced out in front with a big lead mid-way in the first period, 19-4, as the reserves came in and continued the blitz led by Freshman Don Mulder and Russ De Vette with two baskets apiece. The score stood 30-15 at the half.

The regulars s tarted the second half and poured it on thick. On work by Magiera, the Dales crept as close as 34-21, but just about this time, Visser and Dalman whipped a series of buckets through the mesh and upped the score to 47-21 before the Dales tallied on a hook shot by Magiera. Dalman came up to what was expected of him and messed up the Dale of-fense by picking up loose balls to Dutch advantage brilliantly. The reserves were again called upon but the blitz continued again led by Mulder and Baas. The lat ter had extreme difficulty in sinking shots, although he tried often, but nevertheless played good bail.

Dalman Is High The regular five played about

half of the game with the reserves doing an able job controlling the ball for the remainder of the tilt. George Dalman was high for the Dutch with 16 points, followed by Visser, who netted 11. Magiera, Dale forward, was their high-point man with a total of 14. Coach Har-wood was handicapped this year as he had to build an entire new team around the lone returning veteran, Vern Groth.

team of last year, Tuesday,

Jan. 20. The Dutch will run

lost was Bud Howe. Alma topped Hillsdale in a lop-

sided game by the wide margin of '>2 points, nett ing 72 against the Dales' 20. This would indicate tha t the Scots have exceptional scoring ability combined with s t rong de-Tense — the two essential quali-ties of a championship team. Al-though Hillsdale was not a s t rong opponent, the fact remains tha t Alma was 52 points ahead when the gun went off; Hope beat the Dales by 23 points. But you say, Hope put in the second team

Foul Throw A t End of Battle Defeats Dutch

The Dutch dropped a thriller to

the lads of Michigan Normal when

Ed Gilday calmly sank the win-

ning point in the form of a charity

toss with the final gun only 28

seconds away. The game was

played before an hysterical crowd in the local armory Friday, Dec. 12.

With three minutes of play left, Hope held a precarious lead, 27-26, but Rangy Chuck Sampler rang the bell with a hook shot, and the balance again shifted. Long John Visser received two foul shots and sank one with 45 seconds lef t in

the ball game. Sampler Star ts Scoring

Normal quickly drew out a 5-0 lead by two buckets and a f ree

toss by

started the Dutch scoring, and half-way through the first period drew a 7-7 tie.

In the second half, Hope came back hard to break an 18-10 lead, with two buckets by Visser and a tip-in and a foul by Kenny Van-denberg. Another pivot shot by Visser put the Dutch in the lead for the first time, 19-17. Long John again scored to give the locals a 3-point lead. The remainder of the game developed into a dog-fight r ight to the last half-minute when the foul shot gave the Vpsi boys the game.
