Student Council Prepares Women's Glee Club Tour Will For Constitution Revision Cover Three Midwestern States

"We , the s tudents of Hope Col-lege, to fos te r the g rowth of a heal thy college spir i t , to fac i l i ta te united s tudent action and to en-courage and enforce honorable con-duct and t radi t ion, do organize a s tudent council." As such the Preamble to the const i tu t ion of our s tuden t council is s t a ted as a goal to be s tr iven fo r by the s tudents

a t Hope. Recently the re has been considerable criticism t h a t the col-lege s tudents have not been able to voice an opinion or rule s tudent a f f a i r s as fu l ly a s they have de-sired. Consequently the Student Council has taken upon itself the reorganizat ion of i ts consti tut ion under the supervision of a com-mit tee consist ing of five members , Dr. I rwin Lubbers, P rofessor Nor-ma Wolcott , Professor Lars Grand-berg, Peggy Pr ins and Tim Harr i -son. The commit tee is to be ex-panded in an effor t to obtain a g r e a t e r cross-section of s tudent opinion.

Under the present const i tut ion, the organizat ion meets twice a month on Tuesday evening a t 8:30 in Van Raal te 104. S tuden t s inter-ested are invited to a t t end the mee t ings ; but in genera l not suffi-cient s tudent in teres t has been evi-denced. It has been voted tha t a mass meet ing of the s tuden t s may

be called by the pres ident of the council, or upon wr i t ten request of th i r ty members of the student body. Perhaps a monthly meet ing of the entire s tudent body would be s t imula t ing as well as beneficial to all s tudents .

In the present organizat ion the s tudent council is mainly concerned with promot ing activi t ies on the campus. Some believe it can be-come more active in working for s tudent interests . Suggest ions are being sought fo r now to improve the s tudent governing body. Fac-ulty advisors have been considered

by the council as a means fo r guid-ance to the s tudents . If a success-ful consti tut ion can be founded it will be immediately put into effect next fal l .

WAS Collects 18 Boxes For CARE

At the World Adventure Series of March 5, a record crowd of 700 people contr ibuted more t h a n one hundred and fifty dollars to the CARE agency. A g rea t interest was shown in the fine movie, Reaching From Heaven, which was the highl ight of the evening.

The following week, the movie entitled Queen Esther was shown to a smaller g roup but with an ofTerinp amount ing to over th i r ty-five dollars. These combined offer-ings a re enough to send about eighteen C A R E packages to Eu-rope.

The C A R E organiza t ion has re-cently announced t h a t the i r pack-ages can no longer be sent to Hun-gary and Communist controlled Germany, due to the change in the political s i tuat ion.

However, with the continued sup-por t of the Hope s tudents and town people, we will send packages to any worthy fami l ies in countr ies where C A R E still funct ions .

Story Of The Week Occurs In The Library

If the ANCHOR made a policy of picking the story of the week, it would probably be given to the one that took place between a li-brary staff worker and another student over the telephone last week.

The industrious staff member picked up the telephone and heard this query: "Is Collins Ottipoby in the l ibrary?"

Asking the party to "hold the line," the staff member made a diligent search — through the card catalog! After a bit, she informed the party that she was sorry but the library had no record of hav-ing Collins' "Ottipoby."

It proved once again that "it can happen here."

The Cross "T/iom didst not come down from the Cross

when they shouted to Thee, mockinf! am reviling Thee, 'Come down from the cross and we will believe that Thou art He.% Thou didst not come down, for again Thou wouldst not enslave man by a miracle, and didst crave faith given freely, not based on miracle. Thou didst crave for free love and not the base raptures of the slave before the might that has overawed him forever.*"

— From Kyodor DoMoicvky. "The Citjnd lni)iimlut. m Th/ Rrothfn Karamaio-.'.

must also include long range programs of re-habilitation. Such programs necessarily are costly. In 1947, $11,000,000 was spent in a series of disasters including the Texas City explosion, floods and hurricanes along the vjUit coast, and forest fires in New England.

In the Texas City disaster, the Red Cross recruited 650 nurses, brought thousands of dollars of surgical instruments and medical supplies, and food, clothing, and housing for che homeless and for rescue workers.

Another great cause of the Red Cross is the new national blood program which is also v'ery expensive. During the first year of op-eration, the cost was estimated a t $9,000,000. But the cost is small when one remembers that the victims of industrial mishaps, hurri-canes, and other industries may now IbenefU from blood plasma jus t as many service men did during the war.

In many communities the present blood supply is very low. Thirty-five per cent of the hospitals in the United States have never given a transfusion. From thi r ty to forty per cent use blood only in dire emergencies and even the largest hospitals can't afford to be generous with it.

The Red Cross has estimated that the country would require 3.7 million pints of blood annually. The actual amount used in 1946 was 1.5 million pints. The Red Cross predicts that within five years, eight to ten million people will be treated with blooc plasma annually. But this can be done only if this blood is freely available.

Many ex-service men on our campus have axperienced the help and friendship of the Red Cross when they most needed it. We need only to imagine ourselves in some state of emergency — some terrible tornado or in desperate need of blood plasma — to realize the great importance of lending our support to the American Red Cross. D.B.S.

Lent Lent, the pe r iod of p r e p a r a t i o n in the

Christian Church for Easter, was in the time of Constantine a season when converts from paganism were instructed in the Christian faith and made ready for baptism on Easter Eve. It was a time when Christians who had lapsed into paganism prepared for readmis-sion to the Church of Christ. During the Reformation, in a justified reaction against the hypocritical nature of the observance, some Protestants discarded Lent. But some of the reformed churches retained the Lenten period, and during the 18th century, though strict observance of the Lenten fast was gen-erally abandoned, such earnest clergymen as John Wesley urged that Lent be piously kept. Today it is widely observed by Christians. The true spirit of Lent is beautifully ex-pressed in the Book of Common Prayer:

Almighty and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made and dost forgive the sins of all those who are penitent, create and make in us new and contrite hearts that we, worthily lamenting our sins and acknowl-edging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. W.B.S.

The Red Cross The Red Cross today is a cause which sells

itself. Its annual drive for donations is never forced to rely upon the stunts or shenanigans of many such campaigns. Rather, the Red Cross is accepted as a standard article whose principle job is to collect the money.

The large budget required for these post-war years is explained partly on the familiar ground of rising costs, but mainly by the new national blood program and by the new policy of providing for disasters in advance so that valuable time need not be lost in raising funds after tragedy occurs.

This disaster relief does not confine itself to the feeding and clothing of victims, but

Modem Moloch A hundred and thir ty years ago a famous

book was published, called Frankenstein, was the story of a man who made a monstei in his own image, and breathed into it the breath of life, but could not give it a soul. As a consequence, this creature which he ha( manufactured killed his dearest and best, am drove him to a miserable end.

That story was prophetic of what is hap-pening today. The machine, which is of man' jwn making, has got beyond his power o :ontrol: it has become his god, and is leading him to destruction. For surely that by which i man allows his life to be shaped, controlle< ind directed, is his god, whether he knows i j r not; and the machine has become so mon strously possessive of man's social and in iustrial life that not only is it impossible for him to do without it, but he cannot resist its ancroachments. Even though it threatens him with imminent destruction, he cannot do away with it.

Take only the latest instance: having dis :overed the atom bomb, while engaged in a war in which we had steadily abandoned, one after another, the long-established rules o war hitherto accepted by civilized nations, we could not avoid making atrocious use of it in bombing to extinction two cities of a country which was already preparing to surrender with the result that we are now living in a haunted world, powerless to lay the ghost o that crime against humanity.

It is not merely political power — against the corrupting influence of which we have long been warned — it is material, machine-nade power which now holds us in its grip, ind which has become the omnipotent ruler of nations.

"Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee" has now, in the splitting of the atom, received a new interpretation; and we cling to it parasitically, as possibly our 3nly means of salvation from total destruc-:ion, if, with time favoring us, we have the luck to embark on World War III before our opponent has tumbled into it. If he has, then we all go down together, and civilization, as we have increasingly misshaped it during the last four decades, will make a final catas-trophic, and perhaps also a desirable, disap-pearance.

The justification for that war of possible extinction we have recently been told on high authority, will be that it shall secure the survival of the "free society" which, by the political device of counting noses, and allow-ing for an alternating government of the "in's" and the "out's", has now become the only true and practical representative of Christianity upon earth!

But can that <4free society" be either free or Christian if it is bound down by the wor-

Vete rans p lann ing to r e sume in-te r rup ted G. I . Bill educat ion and

Ve te rans Adminis t ra t ion advises. VA urged ve t e rans to wai t unti l

VA assumes no financial obligation

Veterans who plan to convert the i r National Service Life Insur -

ance to one of the six pe rmanent plans now available a re reminded of two points to t ake into consid

erat ion. 1. " G I " insurance may be con-

ver ted in amounts f rom $1,000 to $10,000, in multiples of $500.

2. If the ve teran decides to con-ve r t only p a r t of his insurance he m a y continue the remainder on a

t e rm basis. VA Insurance officials also point

ou t tha t ve terans now paying p remiums on a monthly basis, on e i the r t e rm or pe rmanen t plans, can change to a quar te r ly , semi-annua l or annual payment schedule. Less f requent premium due da tes m a y make it more convenient fo r

t h e ve teran to keep his insurance in force and offer a small saving in ra tes . By paying every three , six or twelve months there is also less chance of the ve te ran ' s policy

laps ing because he fo rge t s to send in necessary premium on t ime.

Name Hei rs

One of the most impor t an t th ings for ex-servicemen to do about thei r National Service L i fe Insurance is the naming of a beneficiary or bene-

ficiaries of thei r policies, the Vet-erans Adminis t ra t ion said today.

.Unless a ve te ran gives this ma t -ter though t fu l considerat ion, he may fail to get the most out of his

insurance. For ins tance, if no bene-ficiary is named, t h e policyholder may be r isking a financial loss to his heirs. Up to A u g u s t 1, 1946, it

was not absolutely necessary fo r the ve teran to name pr imary and cont ingent beneficiaries because the law provided fo r paymen t of the in-

surance to legal he i rs in a specified order. Now, however, if the ve te ran dies without naming a beneficiary, or if the beneficiary should die be-

fore the policyholder, the insurance will be paid in a lump sum to the

ve te ran ' s es ta te . If this happens , and the insur-

ance becomes pa r t of an es ta te , it is subject to all the laws govern-ing es ta tes , including claims of

creditors, admin i s t r a to r s ' f ees and court expenses. Thus the ve te ran ' s heirs might easily lose some of the insurance money which they might o therwise have received.

On the other hand, if the ve te ran names a specific beneficiary and the insurance is paid to him or her , it is exempt f r o m taxa t ion and f r o m any claims made by credi tors . The

money is not liable to a t t achmen t , levy or seizure under any legal process, ei ther before or a f t e r re-ceipt by the beneficiary. The only

exception to this ru le is t h a t the U.S. Government may make claims aga ins t the insurance.

Hence, ve te rans can pro tec t thei r heirs aga ins t possible financial loss by naming a beneficiary, and they

can add to t h a t protect ion by nam-ing a cont ingent beneficiary to whom the insurance is to be paid if the first beneficiary should die wi thout receiving the money.

Eligibility Expi ra t ion

A ve te ran whose eligibil i ty f o r education under the G-I Bill r u n s out a f t e r he completes a t leas t half a school semes ter can complete the semes ter a t government expense,

Ve te rans Adminis t ra t ion said. He will receive subsistence al lowances f o r the remain ing period.

chine has so deadened the social conscience,

and deprived us of so many of the values of

wholesome communal living, that it is really an open question whether, not the saving, but the wiping-out of our present mechanized civilization would not be the most direct way to the establishment of God's kingdom on earth.

How the god of the machine has fatally deadened the social conscience has been one outstanding instance increasingly emphasized since the beginning of the present century. It was then, with the invention of the motor car, that we let death loose upon the roads, and reconciled ourselves to an annual casualty list which frequently is as large as that of any of the wars we had waged previous to World War I — with this difference, that a large proportion of the casualties were old people and young children. And to this day, the conscience of the nation has not been hor-rified by this holocaust which we have pre-

ship of a false god? And the god of the ma-1 sented year by year to the god of the ma-

chine. What began as a sporting luxury for the few and the well to do has become a ne-cessity, and in the accelerating clutch of its death-dealing propensities, we are helpless! And in spite of the heaven-sent device of se-curing social freedom by an alternating acces-sion to power of opposing parties, we have no party which has the conscience and the de-termination to abolish by means of safe-guarding restrictions those deaths upon the road.

Our service to the god of the machine holds us in its bondage; and the deaths of scores upon scores of young children will still go on. And that being so, is it not sheer babble to claim that we are, in any social or political sense, either a Christian or a free society while we continue to accept with cal-lous consciences that most unchristian sacri-fice to Moloch — t h e modern Moloch — t h e god of the machine?

How Much Of You Is Ghost?

A\-

How much of th i s Ghost do you h a r b o r ? FEAR.

F e a r is the cause of all discour-agement , t imidi ty , procrast inat ion,

indecision, and the lack of self-con-trol , init iative and the necessary enthusiasm for existence. We call our f e a r s ghosts because they exist in mind only. But because we ca r ry them along in our controlled imagi-nation, they do more harm to the mind which controls our body and can be jus t as dangerous as if they lived and walked among us.

In order to rout out this bogey, it is necessary to study, analyze and t ry to unders tand this enemy.

It mus t be remembered t h a t f e a r is negat ive and t h a t indecision and procrast inat ion a r e the seeds of fea r and this indecision builds up a doubt and the blending of the two produce Fear . Somet imes the blend-ing is slow but th i s is one reason why these three a r e dangerour.. They grow almost without being observed.

The involuntary processes of the body a rc controlled, not by the con-scious mind, but by a sixth sense tha t can never sleep, except in

death. It is in this sense tha t the t e r ro r s or fears t a k e root and a f -fect the mind or o t h e r body o rgans and in t ime produce all the symp-toms of organic disease. We know

Delphi, Arcadians Win Sing Trophies

Delta Phi soror i ty and Arcadian f r a t e r n i t y were adjudged winners in the sixth annua l Hope all-col-lege sing. A capaci ty crowd filled Memorial Chapel as each sorori ty and f r a t e r n i t y on campus competed for possession of the two gold tro-

phies awarded the winners. Delta Phi, s ing ing "Steal Away-

a r ranged by Ringwald, was direct-ed by Miss Claire Wierenga. Miss Rovilla Ganote accompanied. The Arcad ians won wi th the i r choice of "Win te r Song , " Bullard, di-rected by Ken Lee tsma. Sam Post-huma accompanied.

Second in soror i ty competition was Sorosis, directed by Miss Pru-dence Haskin, s inging "Wiegen-

lied," Brahms. Emersonians , sing-ing " D r e a m River ," placed second among f r a t e rn i t i e s . Their director was Herb Ri tsema.

In a point j udg ing system first and second place winners in both contests were t ied, both sorori t ies having 285 points and the two f r a t e rn i t i e s , 275. However, in each case, two of the judges had award-ed the winning organiza t ions first place while the second place win-ners received only one judge 's first ra t ing.

S tandings of t h e other societies according to points a re as follows: Sororit ies, Dorian 238, Alpha Sig-ma Alpha 220, Sibyilline 210, and Thesaur ian 179; f r a t e rn i t i e s . Cos-mopoli tans 230, F r a t e r n a l 224, and Knickerbocker 203.

Russ and I were more than pleased

with the fu l l -hear ted co-operation

on the par t of everyone. The judges

had one difficult t ime in de te rmin-

of the judges was tha t the S ing

competi t ion was on a very h igh

level th is year. Congratu la t ions a re

in order to the winners; namely, the

Delta Phi Sorori ty and the Arca-

dian F ra t e rn i ty . Those trophies a r e

a symbol of some very hard work

and effor t on the pa r t of the direc-

tors and the organizat ions. Not

t ha t every sorori ty and f r a t e r n i t y

didn' t put fo r th t ime and effort, but

someone had to win, you know. Men's Glee Club can't be in the

l imelight all the t ime. The Wom-en's Glee Club decided to take over t ha t f r o n t page spotl ight in this is-sue. The Club will tour through Illi-nois, Wisconsin, and Indiana. The gir ls have never been through th i s

Congra tu la t ions seem to have a prominent place in the Music Box

this week. Marge Angus and Tim Harr i son deserve thei r share on

Whenever I think back — ( t ru ly this is a s ign of old age) — and remember wha t the orches t ra and band former ly were and what they are now, the comparison is a marvelous revela-tion. (Dee Davis said these last two words were good to use, so

there they are. As one typist to another , you know.) In fact , when

I was a f r e shman the orchest ra wasn ' t even in existence. Course tha t was centur ies ago. Hmmmm. Think it 's t ime to s t a r t another p a r a g r a p h .

Phyll is Jean Sherman and Paul Kranendonk added another excel-lent recital to the records Tuesday evening. Another "orchids to you" is in order , this t ime fo r P. J . and Paul.

VA Warns Of Increase In Work Competition

Record-breaking college enroll-

men t s since the end of the w a r will, in the nex t few y e a r s , result in in-creased compet i t ion fo r profer.-sional and adminis t ra t ive jobs, a

Bureau of Labor S ta t i s t ics repor t , prepared f o r Ve te rans Adminis t ra -tion, revealed.

Vocational advisers and appra i s -e r s in VA guidance centers use the repor t as a n aid in counseling dis-abled v e t e r a n s p lann ing to t a k e

courses of educat ion and t ra in ing .

Because of the unprecedented number of college g r a d u a t e s en te r -ing the labor m a r k e t , the repor t said, employment r equ i rements fo r many jobs " a r e likely to be ra ised ."

The r e p o r t sugges t s tha t ve ter -ans en te r courses of education or t ra in ing " a s closely related as pos-

sible to the i r in te res t s and capac-i t ies ."

Those who plan to go into office occupations, the repor t continued, should "consider specific t r a in ing

in th i s field, a s many employers p r e f e r workers wi th well-rounded business school o r college business admin is t ra t ion t r a i n i n g to those wi th college degrees in liberal a r t s . "

A veteran seeking advisement and guidance f r o m VA "should be made aware of the competit ion which he is likely to meet in many fields," the repor t said. " H e will be well-advised to consider more of the less-crowded though pe rhaps

less-glamorous fields, and to take courses which will enable him to qua l i fy f o r more than one t y p e of job."

Result Of Survey? Coeds Have Slouch

Eas t Lansing, Mich. — ( A C P ) —

Repor ters of the "Michigan S t a t e

News" took a pos tu re survey of

coeds on a Sunday af ternoon in

the Union Grill. They report a

pronounced slouch on fid per cent of the coeds observed:

"A slouch not only makes a woman look sloppy, it affects her personal i ty and her physical wel-f a r e . "

" I t ' s a shame t h a t so many of the so-called "c ream of American womanhood" should carry them-selves as if they were f r igh tened ."

The ar t ic le goes on to quote f r o m " S t a t e Hoard Quest ions and An-swers fo r N u r s e s " :

"Ques t ion : What effect does poor posture have on one's mental a t t i t ude?

" A n s w e r : Poor pos ture comes to be associated with th»* grumbl ing, dissatisfied and u n h a p p y individ-ual. Any effect on the physical well-being will sooner or la ter he reflected in the menta l outlook. Good posture sugges t s good breed-ing, a l e r tness of mind, fear less-ness, and a n a t t r ac t ive personali ty, a l though people may possess more charac ter and desirable personality t r a i t s than bear ing indicates."

Emotional Maturity Claimed As Success Factor In Marriage

Providence, R. 1. — (ACP) — " N o t h i n g de te rmines the degree of success in cour tship and mar -r i age more t h a n emotional m a t u r -i ty ," said D r . V e r a Behrend t in a lecture on " M a r r i a g e and Court-sh ip" a t Brown Univers i ty .

Dr. Behrendt gave some cr i ter ia f o r judging whe the r o r not a per-son is emotional ly mature . The abi l i ty to weigh the value of " long t ime gold a g a i n s t immediate sa t is -fac t ion" was sa id to be impor tan t in th is respect . Listed as lacking th i s vir tue a r e those s tuden t s who read a m y s t e r y novel the night before an impor t an t exam. They neglect the f a c t t ha t ge t t ing a high g r ade on the exam would afford more long l a s t i ng sa t i s fac t ion .

"The capabi l i ty to give affection and love to a n o t h e r individual" was mentioned as ano the r cri terion. The emotionally i m m a t u r e person shies a w a y f r o m mak ing any deep emo-tional a t t achment s . In a gir l , she said, this tendency man i fes t s itself in the form of collecting boy! f r i ends much as an Indian collects ' scalps, while boys who always t ry to date a much sough t -a f t e r girl also exhibit th i s insecurity born of immatur i ty .

Another impor tan t criterion of emotional m a t u r i t y is t h a t of va-rious types of emotional response, the lack of which is shown in the child's temper t a n t r u m s . A short-coming in the adul t resul ts in the over-aggress ive person who lacks control, and the person who con-t ro ls himself to too g rea t a degree, the over-sweet individual.

Ultrafax, New Device Speeds Communication

A new technique h a s been added to the communicat ion field, com-bining the elements of television, radio and high-speed photography. This complicated device has the simple n a m e of U l t r a f a x .

By U l t r a f a x it is possible to t r a n s m i t 1,000,000 words a minute a t the speed of light.

Demons t ra ted in Wash ing ton by R.C.A., th i s new prodigy of tele-vision has proved i ts importance. "Gone with the Wind , " the 1,047-page novel, was t r ansmi t t ed word fo r word in two minutes . Char t s , news, adver t i s ing layouts and bat-tle maps were also successfully t r ansmi t t ed .

In addit ion to these as tounding f ea t s , David Sarnoff, R.C.A. head, makes addit ional claims. It is his belief t h a t through television and U l t r a f a x it is possible to foresee the day when a radio newspaper may be delivered t h rough the a i r into every home wi th a television receiver.

He also believes it will be pos-sible to t r a n s m i t full length motion pictures f r o m a single negat ive in the production s tudio s imultane-ously to the screens of thousands of t hea t e r s th roughout the coun-t ry .

These f a c t s might permi t a lumni and other persons interested in Hope to have their issue of the Anchor in shor t order .

called the Cosmopolitans to order

in the chapel basement on Friday,

March 18. Frank Sterk opened

with prayer , followed by News-

Commentator Gail Van Zyl, broad-

casting f rom our local station, who

gave a most enlightening review

of important happenings in the world news for the last six months. Tim Harrison, with his usual stel-lar performance, sang "The Hills of Home," accompanied by Phil Fredrickson. The humor of the evening was ably presented by "Nervous" Jim Hoffman and was in the form of various biographical sketches. Max Frego made some worthwhile criticisms concluding the program. A great deal of bus-iness was transacted in the meet-ing that followed.

EMMIE-SIB

The annual Emmie-Sib joint meeting was held Friday, March 18 in the Emersonian f ra terni ty room. Emmie Dean opened the meeting with prayer followed by the wel-comes of Presidents Shirley Knoll and Russ Norden. The secretaries read the rolls and singing took the focal point, led by Emmie Jack Wickert. In keeping with the theme of St. Patrick's Day, several Irish songs were sung including "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." Sib Barb Van Neuren gave a very en-lightening "Serious" paper on the life and adventures of St. Patrick Emmie Herb Ritsema then favored the group with his piano arrange-ments of "Manhattan Serenade" and variations on an Irish theme "Annie Laurie." The humorous por-tion of the evening was provided by Paul Myrehn's paper entitled "Wha t is a Woman." The critic's report was given by Sib Joyce Brunsell which brought the meet ing to a close. Refreshments a social period followed.

FRATERNAL

The Fraternal Glee Club, since ts creditable performance in the

All-College Sing, is now preparing to go to Vassar. "Die Man River" flooded the "Meadowlands", but was frozen over by the "Winter Song". Appreciation is extended to all who worked and cooperated to bring the Fraters out of the All-College Sing Cellar.

The Fraternal Clubroom was the site of the literary and business meeting of March 18. Fra te r Beuker voiced the prayer. Then, F ra te r "Lumpy" Lumsden out-shouted the men while leading the songfest. Frater Burton's Philoso-phy of Life followed. Next, Fra te r 4No Sermon Tonight" Smallegan provided adequate humor.

OKE welcomes to its ranks three new pledges who are Larry Hill-dore, Al Rauschenbach, and Ralph Ludwig. Election of officers fol-lowed the literary meeting. The following men take their place in the administration: President, Don Evers; vice president, John Mac-donald; secretary, Larry DeVoogd; and treasurer, Rog Kempers. OKE accepts these men and challenges them to maintain the Rising Sun on the Fraternal Crest. Apprecia-tion is extended to retiring Presi-dent Paul Hinkamp and his admin-istration for their fine work.

200 Persons Hear Hope College Band

More than 200 persons heard a concert by the Hope College Band in the Memorial Chapel Thursday night. Prof. Morrette Rider di-rected his smartly uniformed or-ganization in a varied program, with the "Pavanne" by Morton Gould probably receiving the most enthusiastic reception.

Several features highlighted the program, the "Fantaisie Amerizue" by Benoist, played by a brass quar-tet , being a special attraction. In the quartet were Victor Kleinhek-sel, Calvin Swart, Rodger Kramer and Lee Brower. A clarinet quartet and a clarinet trio also offered selections.

IRC Guest Speaks On Trade And Cooperation

On March 1(5 the International Relations Club heard an informa-tive talk by a Holland business-man, Mr. John Donnelly. Mr. Don-nelly, who is affiliated with the Donnelly-Kelly Glass Company of Holland, spoke on the topic, "Free Trade and International Coopera-tion." This talk led into a lively group discussion.

For one of their April meetings the IRC is planning a panel dis-cussion on some current topic. An invitation has been sent to a group from Grand Rapids Junior College to participate in this meeting.

H O P E C O I L J A I A N C H O R

The Gayer Philosopher

The burial is over and life has returned to normal. Gay's death was a spectacle to behold: there wasn't the usual gore of an accidental death but only an ever-increasing series of convulsive gripes, the last of which the Gay gentleman experienced unconsciously. Contrary to circulating rumors, Gay did not die f rom an acute attack of adminis-trationitis, but, he, like Melville's Queequeg, died of his own volition — and tha t in the prime of his life! The coroner's verdict: a self-inflicted wound.

The funeral was a sad one but the gloom was pierced when the gen-tleman's friend sang, "Some Day We'll Understand".

One of Gay's last requests to me, his younger brother, was that I continue sending out an S.O.S. of cheer to a world filled with poor lights. How noble a death-bed request! I accepted that task with great misgivings because Gay and I were among the few who knew how badly this old world needs more light and less heat (in Van Raalte).

However, before I begin with the task at hand, interested friends of the deceased might like to know tha t one of the causes for which brother Gay f o u g h t — (ironical that the doctors should also diagnose it as a minor cause of death) — t h e substitution of Ferris coffee, has been accomplished. Gay gave the last of many smiles when that news was passed on to him within hours of his death. Resquiet in pace!

Soon af ter I arrived on the campus to assume my duties, I noticed Gay's name on the Dean's list. I must inform mother of this. He had always striven for grades. He was not among those scoffers who had no faith in grades. "Grades make the man", he had said once upon receiving the approbration of mother. Gay understood well that faith without grades was dead. It will be consoling to mother to know that Gay's last accomplishment of real note was to be listed among those who could remember page numbers well, and, given the proper signal, could belch forth professorial phrases in near exact form. But this was not the accomplishment of a day.

I well remember Gay trying to make the honor roll in high school. He never was successful. It wasn't until he came to college and met here some Listed senior who informed him that there were two routes to get t ing grades. The first route, the accomplished senior pointed out, was to know the course. He quickly added, however, that that was the thorny and difficult way. The easier and more successful way was to know the professor. And so, following the sage's advice. Gay made the List. Of course, he never got anything more than grades out of the course, but he never planned on anything more. (What other Lists are there to make anyhow?) I am proud to reflect that Gay, like history's great scholars, maintained the conviction that grades were the sine qua non of any course. (Let the scoffers keep their silence while the scholars speak.)

In behalf of the Philosopher family, I accept your condolences. We have lost a great warrior but his spirit remains.

SOROSIS

On March 4 Anne Kloese, Ina

Linton, Marilyn Whitford, and Pa t

Keyser were welcomed as members

of Sigma Sigma. Following their

initiation, there was a short busi-

ness meeting a f t e r which we had

a joint meeting with the Delphi's.

Sorosites gathered in the Sorosis

Room on March 13 for a lively

business meeting preceding our

election tea. Roll was taken by the secretary and plans were discussed for our spring party. Elections were then held and Sorosite Mary Van Loo was elected president; Sorosite Jean Snow, vice-president; and Sigma Sigma Gladys Avakian, sec-retary. Sorosite Anne Kloese was unanimously elected Sergeant-at-Arms. (That is one way to keep Kloese quiet).

At 8:00 Mrs. Lubbers and all of the House Directors were welcomed to the Sorosis room. The room was decorated in green in keeping with the St. Patrick's Day theme. The program was in charge of Sigma Sigma Nancy O'Vyverberg, who read scripture and offered prayer. Sorosite Joan O T e n Hoeve then sang "Oh Danny Boy" (any con-nection is purely coincidental). A hilarious humor paper was heard from Sorosite Jayne O'Baker a f t e r which Sigma Sigma Jean O'Ver Beek played a medley of Irish song. Barbara O ' V o m a s t i c t h e n e x -pounded the maker of St. Patrick's Day. Critic for the program was Sorosite Dot O'Constant. After the singing of the Sorosis Song, we all joined in a social period which was highlighted by the refreshments which Mary O'Vanderley and her committee had planned for us. (Al-though only a few Sophs helped with the dishes, the meeting was fun, and the food delicious.)

DORIAN

Wednesday afternoon, March 16,

the Dorians gathered to polish off

the election of new officers. The

balloting made Ruth Quant presi-

dent, P. J. Sherman, vice president,

and Dot Fennema, secretary. The

refreshments yielded a total loss

of appetite for supper.

On Friday, March 18, a f t e r a

brief business meeting, the. Dorians

gathered around the piano for an

old-fashioned song fes t with Mary

Voskuil directing and Betty Eskite

presiding a t the ivories. Af te r mak-

ing certain the roof was still in

place because of the ordeal, the

Dorians drifted their various ways,

while the pledges rushed home to

begin learning the creed in prepar-

ation for their formal initiation

this week. Plans are also being

made for that distant day in May

when our informal party will be

held. 0

DELPHI

Oh Boy! O? What is i t?

Food! "O-Delphi" Sorority's

nual St. Patrick Day Potluck held

in the Koffee Kletz was a huge suc-

cess. Ah ye and that it was! After

dorm girls were convinced that the laden counter was no blarney an eager line formed. Each one filled their dishes to capacity and a f te r locating the proper shamrock seated themselves fo r what proved to be one of the busiest, most hilar-ious session the Kletz —or St. Pat had seen. When Chairman Do-lores Thomas announced "That 's all", "O-Delphian" returned to their room for shennanigans about the wearers of the green. Ruth De Graaf presented a quality we all should strive to possess by reading a portion of Scripture concerning humbleness. "O'Really" Davis told us what was what about Ireland and its patron saint. Marge O'Lyric Angus singing "Mother Machree" had all her O-Delphian sisters in that land across the sea. Mc "Laugh"lin Hungerink, true to her resolution neglected her namesake and set a hilarious mood in a humor paper void of blarney stones, sham-rock or the like. Judy O-Censor Mulder brought us out of the land of green and back to Dutch Hope and she summarized the evening events.

Professor Claims Air Age Isn't Here

Norman, Okla. — (ACP) — Al-though aviation plays an important role in everyday living. Dr. S. E. Torsten Lund, professor of educa-tion a t the University of Oklahoma, believes tha t the a i r age is not here as yet.

He says that the average man does not realize the potentialities of flying. Dr. Lund states that man has been restricted to an ex-istence on the surface of the earth. He has, through a period of many years built up a "sur face" outlook toward his experiences and envir-onment. He feels insecure and tense in the air, the result of this "surface" outlook.

The average man is no longer surprised at new developments in aviation. However, he has a sense of feeling that the changes, and happenings concern someone else and sits back complacently think-ing that he "will keep one foot on the ground, thank you." Dr. Lund believes that the air age will not be here "until it la personally ac-cepted by the majority of our peo-ple as something which is a real part of their own lives."

o There is no thought in any mind,

but it quickly tends to convert it-self into a power, and organize a huge instrumentality of means.

—Emerson.

Cofmos Beat Fraters 47 - 45

In Inter-Fraternity Playoff In the in te r f ra temi ty champion-

ship play-off, the Fra te r "A" team lost a battle of time to the Cosmo-politan " B " team. The see-saw game ended with the Fraternal team watching a small lead dwindle and fade into a two point deficit.

The Cosmos played a steady game and held up in the tight spots. Frdd Kalsbeek's 11 points in the first half still left the Fra ters behind 21-24. The Cosmos capital-ized on eight free throws for seven points to keep their team on top.

The second half was paced by the scoring of Gord Van Hoven who poured in eleven more points and took high scoring honors with 17 points. Kalsbeek was second high with 16 for the Fraters .

The time-keeper called two min-utes to play and in spite of their stalling the Fraters saw their small lead dwindle. The game was again revived when the time-keeper cor-rected the time to three minutes to play. The Fraters wavered and missed several "dog" shots while the Cosmos maintained their steady pace by tallying seven out of eigh-teen free throws in the second half.

A Cosmo long shot broke a 45-45 tie and the game ended with sev-eral Frater shots rolling off the hoop.

The Kibitier

Football Coach Al Vanderbush will try to get spring football prac-tice under way this week. The Outdoor workouts will begin as weather is the uncertain element, soon as the field is clear of mud and snow.

Vanderbush plans to work in two or three practices a week. Accord-ing to present plans, spring train-ing will continue till the latter part of April. Men out for spring

sports will not practice football

unless it does not interfere with

their other training.

At present prospects look good

for next fall 's team. Of last year's

squad only two will be graduated.

They are Don Rinkus and Russ

Norden. Fred Kalsbeek and Ed

Leverette, both of the 1947 squad,

have returned to school.

The Fraters won the " A " league championship with a convincing 45-33 win over the Independents in their final league game. These two teams had been tied up to this game. The F ra t e r s held a slim 8-7 lead after the first quarter . From then on their greater r e s e r v e strength began to tell. The half-t ime count stood 22-15. Fred Kals-beek led the winners with 18 points. De Groot and Skaalen scored all but five of the Indie points, tallying 15 and 13 respec-tively.

The Emmies broke the Knick's four-game w i n n i n g streak by handing them a 40-27 setback. Chuck Buchtrup led the Emmies with 18 points, 9 of which came in the first quarter . The Knicks were hampered by personal fouls. Field-house, their high-scoring forward, had four fouls in the first few min-utes and sat out half the game. Phil Meengs le f t the game on fouls early in the second half .

The Arcadians broke out of the cellar by drubbing the Cosmos 36-21. The Arcadians led by a com-fortable margin throughout. Verg Dykstra ended his collegiate ca-reer by leading his team with 9 points.

Statistically, the "A" league was much closer than the " B " league. The Fraters had a very slight lead both offensively and defensively. On an average very few fouls were committed in league play. The av-e rage fouls per team per game was about ten. Most of the games were very close. The margins of victory averaged less than ten points. The Emmies and Fraters both scored 59-18 victories. This represents the highest and lowest number of points scored in one game.

The twenty top scorers in the league are:

Who has the final say so on the interfraternity track meet which is run off each May DayT At present there is quite a bit of discussion going on as to who will be sllowed to run. In other words, may the men on tae track team participate? And also, must those who do partici-pate prove that they have done a certain amount of training?

As nearly as we can figure out, the ANCHOR is the official sponsor of the event. For the past few years a member of the ANCHOR staff has been in charge of the meet. The ANCHOR has always bought

the ribbons. It seems that to have a consistent interfraternity sports program,

the management of the May Day meet should be turned over to the Inter-Fraternity Athletic Council. They should make the decision as to who could run and as to the training people should do especially for the longer events. The ANCHOR is more than willing to give over the sponsorship of the event.

Personally we feel tha t track team members should not be eligible for the May Day meet. It will make for a f a r closer meet. More aver-age men who don't know much about running will feel like partici-

pating. A few of us got together the other day and tried to pick a few

all-star teams for the two interfraternity basketball leagues. Our apologies to those we may have mis-placed. It's all in fun, and we're just trying to add to the general interest in the leagues which have been the best in several years.

In the "B" league we couldn't quite find room for four Cosmos on the first team so we flipped a coin and one of them came in second. In the "A" league Kalsbeek of the Fra te rs was omitted because he

played only four games. o

Gol f Team Awaits First Dry Weather

Coach Albert Timmer is waiting for the first dry weather to s ta r t holding regular practices with his 1949 golf squad. He hopes to run an elimination tournament for team positions before vacation. This early s tar t is necessary as the first match is the first day a f t e r vacation.

Coach Timmer has two return-ing letter winners f rom last year 's team. They are Bob Houtman and Henry Visser. Besides these he has two members of the 1947 cham-pionship team back. They are Howie Jalving and "Chip" Mul-der. Howie was medalist at the tournament two years ago with 154 for the two rounds.

Last year six-man teams were used in the MIAA. The idea of reducing the team size to four, as two years ago, or to five is being discussed at present. It is likely that five will be the size of this year 's teams.

Other candidates for positions on the squad include three juniors: George Slikkers, Phil Fredrickson, and Don Lindeman. Sophomores reporting are James Fox and Bill Miedema while Dick Kruizenga and Bill Kloote are the f reshman hope-fuls.

Hope's 1949 golf schedule is as follows: Apr. 12 Kalamazoo There Apr. 19 Calvin-G.R.J.C There Apr. 22 Alma Here Apr. 26 Albion There Apr. 28 Calvin—G.R.J.C Here May 3 Hillsdale There May 6 Kalamazoo Here May 13 Adrian There May 19-20 MIAA Meet Kazoo
