VOLUNTEER MEETING
Claire Bruce as "Portia" in Julius Caesar" at Carnegie March 25th
The Student Volunteers who met
on Thursday last week, opened the meeting with a song service and devotion in charge of Miss Florence
Clark. Following this Miss Loi-
Marsilje directed our thoughts to the "Missionary 's Intellectual Life" as found in "The Foreign Mission-
a ry" by Ar thur J . Brown; the book
being reviewed by the Volunteers. The Chapter brought out that ,
since the missionary is a scholar
as well as an educated man, he needs a scholar 's tools. These may be found in a library which each missionary should collect for him-self, and which will serve him for enjoyment , culture, mental growth, and prevent s tagnat ion , both in the
intellectual and spiritual life. The Missionary's intellect is of ten used
for l i terary work. This includes t r ans la t ing the Bible, prepar ing school text books and general read-ing, reducing languages to writ ten form, and giving informat ion to the
home land. Both the home and for-eign lands are g rea t ly indebted to the intellectual achievements of the
missionaries. Hence, the Mission-ary's intellectual life should not be neglected.

or with their "bunch" are los-ing valuable lessons in human understanding and sympathy which college so amply affords, lessons dearly learned.
It is because of the cosmo-politan and democratic social opportunities afforded by the all-college banquet that we en-dorse it so heartily. Because we confidently expect this event to have a salubrious ef-fect on the unity of the stu-dents at Hope we hail it with anticipation. Think, at the
all-college banquet you may

OBLIGATIONS
Judges and Judgment • a •
The wide divergence of
opinion among the judges of
the Michigan O r a t o r i c a !
League in the recent state
contests gives rise to a nat-
ural questioning of the effici-ency and fairness of the pres-ent method of Judging. When an orator is given two first places, two second places, and one fourth, or one first place, two second places, and a fourth and fifth, there is either an astonishing differ-ence in oratorical standards, a pronounced prejudice, or what is worse—a strategic manoeuvering on the part of coaches apprehensive for the fate of their own proteges. A system permitting the expres-sion, unconscious and other-wise of the judges' antipath-ies and pecularities to the dis-advantage of their more im-minent rivals should certainly have no place among colleges exerting so wide an influence as the members of the Mich-igan Oratorical League. It is difficult to understand why the coaches of oratory, who must above all others recog-nize the inherent weaknesses of the present method, have tolerated the continuation of a system that may convert a contest into an occasion sim-ilar to a European Peace Con-ference.
YOU MAY MAKE A NEW FRIEND
• » • • The meaning of the posters
about the Campus marked "March 26?" has by this time made common to all the stu-dent body. It is with great delight and hearty anticipa-tion that we welcome the stag-ing of an all-college banquet for the second consecutive an-nual time. The tremendous success of the initial attempt made last year more than war-ranted the repetition and de-velopment of the occasion. Real credit is due the Asso-ciation Union at the College, i for it is this Union which is! sponsoring the affair to bei
given a week from tomorrow.
Why do we have an all-col-
lege banquet? This is the question that undoubtedly en-ters the mind of the thought-ful individual when he re-ceives the announcement of the current plans. We feel that the coming banquet is justifia-ble, nay, highly desirable and almost indespensible, as a means of knitting together the student group at Hope Col-lege. The All-College banquet is one of the rare occasions at our school when all the stu-dents mingle together in social intercourse under the immed-iate auspices of the school. These occasions are rare. The single other social event of the year that took in the entire school was the highly-enjoyed faculty reception given last fall, unless we consider as so-cial events the "mass" meet-ings, and even these have been uncommonly scarce this year. Other schools have their week-ly or bi-weekly all-college dances. We do not, nor are we asking for them, but we do feel the need of some other means of binding the group together more closely. In this respect the coming dinner is the answer to a prayer.
The well-nigh uniform crit-icism that we received from those who observe us as a stu-dent body is that we are too clannish; that we have too many petty social distinctions of class and caste which pre-ment the manifestation of the esprit des corps which might normally be expected of a stu-dent body as large as ours. And indeed a frank and ob-servant member of the student body, who knows conditions can not help but endorse these statements. We tolerate too many little psuedo-aristocra-cies. Perhaps it is Dutch pride, perhaps something else, which makes too many o f our stu-dents weigh an individual's p urse and examine his social affiliations before extending a brotherly hand and offering co-operation when it is needed. The pitiable feature is that those who are ready to asso-ciate only with their "equals"
That things comprise our
obligations to our school?
Loyalty and love for our col-
lege? Yes! But in what ways
can we prove our loyalty and
express our love? By sup-
planting her activities and en-deavors we can show our ut-most apreciation for what our school is doing for us. The ac-tivities of the institution, can-not be financed by all of the loyalty and love we can mus-ter unless we back it up with something concrete — money! Loyalty and love are very ne-cessary to the progression of an enterprise but at times there must be something more than a verbal expression.
Each student at Hope is asked to contribute three dol-lars to his individual class treasury. One half of this sum is required by the Student Council. In this way the Pi Kappa Delta is financed as are other all-school activities. This year the student council is very deeply in debt and cannot pay for many of the activities it needs to enter to keep up the reputation of the school.
The men's debating team this year won but one debate. This can be partially attri-buted to the necessity of audi-ence decisions because of the inability to pay for an expert judge. At the present time the treasury of Pi Kappa Delta is indebted to judges for a sum of more than fifty dol-lars. If Hope expects to send a delegation to National Pi Kappa Delta convention at Bowling Green, Ohio, there must be more money in the Student Council's treasury. Pi Kappa Delta is not the only activity which has suffered be-cause of the non-payment of dues. The Homecoming of last fall still has outstanding debts which'cannot be paid because of a lack of funds. The only way to clear up this defiicit is for every student who has no already done so to pay his dues to his class treasurer. The Senior class has paid its quota to the Student Council, altho all of the members have not contributed.
Let's keep our finance slate clean by paying up our dues. By doing this we will be showing the greatest loyal-ty to our school! The class treasurers are listed below, so that every one may know to whom to go: N
Frosh—Harvey Scholten. Soph—Elmer Bauhahn.
- Junior—Lin Sabo. , Senior—Betty Smith.

Alethean — The Aleatheans have started on ft trip around the world. Alethean Kole kept the girls free from seasickness as they sailed over the Pacific by leading them in a song service.
As they arrived at the Japanese docks whom should they see but Alethean Matsunabu in native-cos-tume. Af ter demonstrating the use of chopsticks, she told them an in-teresting Japanese legend.
Alethean Boot enter ta ined the Aletheans in China. She drew the i r a t tent ion especially to the super-
st i t ious beliefs of the Chinese and the influence of these beliefs on every phase of their civilization.
Alethean Horning told about two
girls who se t out to see ikons — and ended up as "Pr i soners of the Cheka in Red Russia ."
Alethean Roggen welcomed the guests a t Par is and took them "around town." From Par i s they went to London where Alethean
Kinkema directed their "sight-see-ing t r ip . "
The Aletheans are s t ay ing in London unti l nex t Fr iday night
when they will visit Ireland. * * *
Delphi — The Delphi Li terary Society held its meeting Wednes-day a f te rnoon a t which the <4ncw gir ls" were formally initiated.
The president, Evelyn Geerlings,
made the welcoming speech in which she also related the founding and the history of the society. Then
the pledges E. Boughter , M. Den Herder, V. Holle, L. Hollebrands, A. Jackson, R. Meengs, R. Mulder, M.
Kooiman, H. Parr ish , H. Pelon, Z. Skil lem, M. Van Zyl, B. Visser, J . Walvoord, and A. White in turn lighted tapers , read the Delphi
creed, and signed their names to the secre tary ' s book. A f t e r this im-pressive ceremony, the society as a
whole, s ang the Delphi song, and the meet ing was turned into an in-formal hour dur ing which del ight-ful r e f reshments were served.

Dorian — The Dorians met Fr i -day evening for a short business meeting, a f t e r which they enjoyed a social time. The girls have pur-
chased a new Irving piano which improves not only the appearance of the room but also the musical numbers on the program.
Sorosis — The Sorosites spent a few hours in Par i s las t Fr iday night. The program was in charge of the Seniors. Devotions were led by Bet ty Smith. The gi r l s were first t aken to a small shop in Par is
in which Ethel Cunnigin was t he saleslady. She had a very good line
of French but the customer, Lucille Walvoord, spoke an Americanized version. The group was then shown a s t ree t of Par is and found none other than Olive Peeke, p laying very well on a saw with a la rge tin cup on t he ground. To her happi-ness she did receive a d i m e . '
The Sorosites were then taken to the Louvre and Marion Anderson gave explanations of the pictures as the curtain was drawn and sev-eral of our Seniors posed as "The Age of Innocense," "The Tom Hat," "Madonna and the Child," "Mona Lisa.' Ethel Cunnigin took the opportunity after that to tell some anecdotes on the lowerclasswomen. Some were really quite original and clever.
The girls enjoyed the style show which was given in a small shop in which Bess Schouten and Ethel Cunnigin were having lunch. Mon-sieur Peeke introduced the models, Lucille Walvoord, Betty Smith, Evelyn Albers afid Marion Ander-son, to the ladies. The opera of Paris was the next scene in which Olive Peeke played a piano solo which called for an encore and Eve-lyn Albera sang an opehi selection.
The cabaret was the last place visited. Betty Smith and Marion Anderson, dressed alike in blue and white suits. U p danced. Bess Schouten as the typical cabaret girl cept the room resounding with aughter. Dainty sandwiches, cook-ea and punch were served after
followed a short business
Emersonian — President Harry Kirkland Smith called the Emer-sonians to order last Friday eve-ning by smashing his gavel on the table with so much energy that the e a r drums of the members came close to breaking. Mr. Nicholas (Cupid)" Cupery was the chorister, and Mr. B. Van der Beek, the pian-i s t Pres. Smith then requested that H a r r y Ver S t r a t e lead the boys in a few cheers t o get some of the pep out of them. Mr. Lester Eller-brook opened t he l i terary part of t he meet ing with a paper on Evo-lution. The second and final num-ber on the p rogram was a humor
! paper on the defence of evolution, entit led, "To Be or Not To Be," by Harold Klaasen. A f t e r a brief but spirited business session, the group adjourned.
• X. •
F ra te rna l — Once again the boys met and enjoyed a typical F r a t e r meeting. Pep and vigor in the sing-ing was evident for who could re-
f ra in f rom singing with "S l im" Decker leading with his s t rong, beaut i ful , and tnelodious voice. Harold Boone road a paper on "Un-
sung Heroes" which everybody en-
joyed. "Eddie Damson dur ing his absence at least learned some good jokes even if he didn't learn arty-thing else. Ear l Moerdyke enter -
tained with a few numbers on his t rumpet . The first par t of the pro-g ram was concluded by Ti tus Van
Hai tsma, who gave a very enl ight-ening paper on the "Life of Michael
Pupin ." Then came a high spot in the program. The long lost "Vene-tian Bowl" has come to life but in a sl ightly dif ferent shape. The res-
urrection was accomplished by
J im Net t inga and it was formal ly dedicated by Ron Fox, a budding young poet who eulogized its sig-nificance in verse.
In the business meeting the elec-tion of the officers for the spring term was held. "Dutch" Poppink was chosen to head the society for the rest of the semester. "Clar" Becker is the new vice-president, and Ron Fox secretary. Plewes and Van Kolken were given the hon-orable and all impor tant jobs of jani tor and ass is tant .

Knickerbocker — The Knicker-bockers met Fr iday evening f o r a short p rog ram and business meet-
ing. Louis Scudder led a lusty song service, in which Ed Tellman gave the boys a sample of his solo work. The program of two numbers con-
sisted of a review of cur ren t events by Carol Norlin, and a humorous reading f rom Sinclair Lewis' " A r -
rowsmith" by Paul Brouwer. A f t e r the business meeting, the group joined almost unanimously in a
thea t re p a r t y at the Colonial. Plans were completed f o r the an-
nual Mothers ' meeting to be held Fr iday evening, March 20.

Wonce dere vas livink in de g a r -den f r o m Heeden, by . d e beck porch, a men, wot vaa named Hed-dem widout a las t name. Vhen he vas finding himself alone widout a fadder or mudder , he deceited he vas being a o rphan minus com-pany und close re la t ions ; so all et

Vhile he vas fishink, he v a s see-ing soon, a f t e r a long t ime, a cam-

MHev a epple!" said de soipent wid a wide g r inn ing vich showed his t ee th—both uf dem. ( F o r efen in dose days dere vere f o u r out of five) "Hev a epple, lady. A epple a day kips de doctor avay." Wot he make Eve scared like any th ing , to shaking in h e r slippers.
" G e r r a d a h e r t ! ! " said Eve, wid a loud whisper.
But de soipent didn ' t vas giving a n e f e r mind. " M y dear lady, hev a epple, hev a couple epples. I am sell ing orchards wholesale f o r two dollars. Wont you hev a epple und help a poor college m a n ?
But Eve ensererd wid a so f t eL "Veil ," said Heddem, "who

So gradua l ly vas coming Eve to Heddem's mail box by par t ia l post, wot it made Heddem heppy to hav-ing a maid to kip his pents press -ed und to dit his cooking mi t kip de dugh in circlation. Also Eve vas f u r d e r m o r e qui te continent mi t her new vork und vh^n she saw Heddem she' became VTooming wid gleefulness und sed Heddem wid

"Not so bad, t a n k you, und I vish you de sapie," said Heddem to Eve. "Veil , kid, I mus t leaf home

But de soipent re turned mit came back again wid his sales ta lk . "Oy, lady, you must hev a epple, a in ' t i t ? Reach f o r a epple insted of a sweet, wot you avoid doze f u t u r -istic shadow! Here , I vill gilt you a meckintosh sample for nuddings ."

SPOELSTRA A N D DALMAN HAVE P L A Y E D IN SIX
VICTORIES O V p R CALVIN
Our basketball victory over Cal-vin last week was the fou r th in a row over the period of the las t two seasons. Howard Dalraan and Waddy Spoelstra, members of the varsi ty, claim a record of six
s t ra ight .
When Calvin took two pames f rom Hope in the 1928-29 season, Dalman and Spoelstra were regular members of the f r e shman team. The Frosh were successful both t imes in contests with the Calvin Reserves, winning here 36 to 17, and a t Grand Rapids by a single point, 21 to 20.
Last season Dalman and Spoel-s t ra earned regular positions on the varsi ty and were ins t rumental in the victories of 31 to 21, and 34 to 17. Two more wins this season have increased the number to six. Both fellows will be out next\ sea-son for another pair of t r iumphs and a clean slate with Calvin throughout their careers .
Waddy Spoelstra enjoys playing the Calvin games and has scored 75 points in the six t i l ts with the Grand Rapids School. He made to-ta ls of 18 and 12 points when a frosh, 12 to 13 last season, and 7 and 13 this winter .
The early spr ing a i r has st irred the fighting blood of our t rack men. They have been a t work in the gym and walking the four mile course for nearly a month. "Lou" Scud-der, the captain, and Coach Schou-ten are busy ge t t ing the green men into shape and showing them the tricks of the trade. The team will be made up mostly of new men. Nevertheless ,the prospects for the season a re good.
o— Now tha t the basketball season
is over, our men, are tu rn ing their at tention to baseball. Captain Poppink, Spoelstra, Van Hai tsma, Mulder, Dalman, and Ver*S t ra t e , who a r e the veterans, will make a good nucleus fo r th is year ' s team. "Dutch" Poppink, our pitcher, has been throwing a ball a lmost all most all winter and lately he has begun oractice in earnes t . Leetsma and Van Leeuwen show good prospects a s moundsmen. Regular practices will begin soon fo r the whole team. Indications po in t to a well balanced team this year .
The first game is with Western Sta te on April 11, only three weeks away. Coach Schouten has ar-ranged a full schedule f o r this spr ing and the team is su re to have good competition. Now then, s tu-dents, let 's g e t behind our t rack And baseball t e a n u . They have the mater ia l ; we have to back them up.
a f ew nice ones f o r t he Knights , Hope outscored them 2 to 1 and was l e a d i n g a t t he intermission 24 to 11.
' In the second hal f . Sl ighter opened again, th is t ime f r o m the field. However the Dutchmen's a t -tack gradual ly weakened while Cal-1
vin began to th rea ten . The Grand Rapids quintet presented a s t rong defense and a flashy offense and held Hope to 7 points du r ing th is ent i re twenty minutes. Neverthe-less Hope's first period scoring spree was too g r ea t a handicap to overcome and the game ended 31 to 25.
Fo r Hope, Waddy Spoelstra scored 11 points the first half and added 2 a f t e r the intermission f o r a total of 13. Sl ighter was next with 9 tumbles and 7 points, while capta in Becker in his last appear-ance shone defensively.
Eldersveldt led the Calvin scor-ing with 8 and Boel followed with 5. The re t i r ing captain . Van Ap-pledorn, also played a nice defen-
sive game. The Summary :

L a s t Thursday brought a close to the 1930-31 basketball season as f a r a s the F rosh were concerned. I t was the last game in which the Freshmen five would represent the Freshmen class. A fine finishing touch t he Frosh put on the past season by defea t ing t he Calvin Frosh by the score of 28-24.
This game was by f a r the best game the Freshmen played dur ing the season. They played a smooth brand of ball with t imely passing and keen basket shooting. The Calvin team fea tured a six foot-nine center, a grea t asset to the rivals.
The game was in progress for over five minutes before ei ther team made a basket , then the Frosh sank a foul shot. This seemed to break the ice, ' f o r scoring s tar ted in earnest and a t the end of the first half the score stood 16-10 in favor of the Hope Frosh.
Dur ing the second ha l f , , both t eams played cautious basketball and did not shoot until absolutely sure of making a basket . Calvin made several mid-court shots dur-ing this period while the Frosh made nearly all of their baskets by snappy passing to get the ball in close. The score a t the end of the game stood 28-24 in favor of our snappy, scrappy, fighting year-
lings. This season is pas t—but wait
until next—when the Frosh will be varsi ty candidates, then big th ings are bound to happen.

The Knickerbockers defeated the Cosmos last week Wednesday by the score of 39-20. By doing so, they held their own with the Em-ersonians and F r a t e r s a t the head of the in t e r - f r a t e rn i ty league.
The game was much closer than the score would indicate, for it was not until lat^r in the game that the Knicks drew away f rom the Cos-mos a t the end of the first half the score stood 11-16 in favor of the Knicks.
The 2nd half brought out some of the best basketball seen in the in te r - f ra te rn i ty league as yet. The flashy guard ing of "Shor ty" An-derson was the outs tanding fea t -ure although Harms and De Young did some fine basket-shooting. For the Cosmos, Vander Werf played a s tel lar game, and when he was taken out by the personal foul route, the Knicks piled up their score.
The society t eams each have three games to play yet , and with
the three way t ie exist ing, there should be plenty of action this week and the following.

On Monday evening, March 9, t he Sibylline basketball t e am met t he Ale theans in the Carnegie Gymna-
sium. Although the Aletheans had had difficulty in finding enough gir ls to make up a basketball t eam,
they put up a very good fight. The members on the Sibylline t eam were Lotus Schaaf t sma , Ruth Win-
s t rom, Nella De Haan, Marga re t
Steketee, Edi th De Young, and Es -the r Glerum. The Alethean bas-ke teers were Helen Barre , Marga-re t Kinkema, Sarah Fox, Ella
Boschker, Bernice Mollema, and Josephine Kaper. During the first half of the game there were very
few baskets made, and the play-ing was ra ther slow. But from the beginning of the second half, the players began to "perk up," and a t
the blowing of the final whittle, the score was 14-6, with the Sibs on top.
By 8:30 quite a f a i r crowd had gathered in the gym to watch t he decisive s t ruggle between the Sor-osites and the Dorians. The t e a m s
were well matched, and the game was a terrific fi)?ht f rom s t a r t to finish. The Sorosite team was com-posed of "Olie" Peeke, as center , Es the r Koster as running center ,
Joan Walvoord and Helene Van Ap-pledom as guards, and Arloa Van Peursem and Hilda Lant ing as for -
wards, The Dorian team members were Henriet ta Lamet and Lillian
Sabo, centers, Josephine Rodenberg and Olivia Johnson, guards, and Kathar ine Freder icks and Ruth Foss, forwards .
The referees were two girls f rofn
the Christian High School basket-ball team, and a good many fouls were called on members of both
t eams before the game was over.
The cheering a t the game was al-
most as exciting as the game i tself , and there was a good deal of com-
petition between different g roups of boosters.
Evdry player was closely guarded and the score was very close. At
the end of the last four minutes the score stood 24-20 in favor of the Sorosites.
