Hope College Anchor Volume XLVI Hope College, Hblland, Mich, May 31» 1933 Number 8 STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTION FRIDAY MANY STUDENT ORATORS ENTER RAVEN PRIZE CONTEST TEN WOMEN AND SIXTEEN MEN WILL COMPETE FOR PRIZE Finals for Roth Contests Will Re Held June 2 in Chapel Science Groups Take Trips to Detroit Labs Once again the fiery call of the couraKeous orator rings through the stately rooms of the Memorial Chupel as our young, aspiring ora- tors discuss the weighty problems of the modern day. The stirring addresses are not, however, given before legislatures, courts of jus- tice, or political mass meetings, but rather before a few serious minded college professors. Victory for these orators does not mean poli- tical action or reform, but rather a first place on the score sheet. Under the direction of Hope's veteran coach of oratory, Dr. J. B. Nykerk, ten women are competing for the Women's prize in Oratory, while sixteen men are out to win the A. A. Raven's Prize in Oratory. The winner of the women's contest will be awarded a prize of $25, while the first place winner of the men's division will receive $3i>, and the second place winner $20. The first elimination of the girl's division was held last week 1' riday afternoon. May 2G. Five freshman girls competed for the right to en- ter the finals, and the three win- ners were Myrtle Beeukes, Cather- ine Haig, and Elinore Pierrepont. Vera Damstra and Anna Dethe- mers were eliminated. Miss Metta Ross, Mr. Garret Vander Borg, and Mr. Cornelius Dreggman served as judges.

M. and the V. W. two weeks ago by Rev. Veltkamp of the Central Ave. Christian Reformed Church, who spoke on "Tolerance." A large and attentive audience of both men and women listened to the discussion and to a musical program in charge of a mixed quartet. During our last V. M. meeting. Dr. Van Saun delivered a highly educational talk on "Certainties and Uncertainties." The develop- ment of this subject led Dr. Van Saun into science and history, as well as religion. The speaker's wealth of information held the in- tense interest of everybody. o MEN'S GLEE CLUB PRESENTS HOME CONCERT MAY 21 A very educational as well as enjoyable trip to the city of De- troit was made by the members of the Hope Chemistry Club on May 12. Officials of the Parke-Davis Co. greeted the club in the morn- ing, including several of the "bad men" of Hope who had painted the city red the night before in spite of one home sick senior who in- sisted that he be brought back to his small home town. After the guides had shown the visitors all of the laboratories and the manu- facturing processes, the Hope dele- gation was joined with a similar delegation from the University of Chicago to enjoy motion pictures of the experimental farm of the Parke-Davis Co. The cafeteria was next opened to the students, and even the waiters were surprised to see what some of the boys could eat when they were allowed to keep their purse strings tied. In the afternoon the group jour- neyed across the city to enjoy another fine reception at the Gen- eral Motors Research Laboratory. Here, as well as in the forenoon, all learned a great deal of practical chemistry. After this, the tired group left for home. Dr. Vergeer took his bacteriology class to Detroit Friday to visit the Parke-Davis Co. The class left early in the morning and arrived in time to go through the "pill factory" before dinner. Later, the company showed them moving pic- tures on the making of toxins and vaccines. After going through the Research Science Building, the stu- dents went out to Parkdale, the farm owned by the company, and there they were shown the care and treatment of the animals used for scientific purposes. The trip proved to be enjoyable as well as very in- structive. Y Members Enjoy Annual Retreat On Sat. May 27 RELIGIOUS AND SOCIAL LIFE ON CAMPUS IS DIS- CUSSED With Professor Ritter as faculty advisor, the Writer's Club, com- posed of those students actively in- terested in creative writing have enjoyed another successful year. The individual work of the mem- bers has been studied and criticized as well as the work of the great and near-great in the literary world. Heretofore the true artistic- irregularity in meetings has been observed, but for next term a more definite organization and routine is planned. At a recent meeting, Margaret Dreggman was elected president and John Henderson secretary for the ensuing year. About twenty students have expressed their in- terest in the organization, and it is expected that the group will be- come a definite factor in Hope Eng- lish circles. The Sunrise Hike of Saturday, May 27, was declared a success by all those who participated. After having assembled at the home of one of the students the group set off around the four mile course. Reverend John Vander Meulen, professor of doctrinal theology and vice president of the Presbyterian Seminary at Louisville, Kentucky, will be the principal speaker of t h t Annual Alumni Convocation of Hope College, to lie held at Hope Church Tuesday, June 20. Rev. Vander Meulen is also a for- mer member of the faculty of Hope College. He was graduated with the class of 181)1, and taught psy- chology and pedagogy at the col- l e g e f r o m HKKPlDOi). Close to 500 living alumni have been invited to the annual meeting and an invitation is extended to the members of the 1 graduating class. Officers who have served during the year are: President, Rev. Rich- ard Vanden Berg of Zeeland; vice president, John J. Riemersma, prin- cipal of Holland High School; sec- retary, Miss Hazel Albers, instruc- tor at Holland High School; treas- urer, Clarence Kleis, professor ol Physics at Hope College.

Meeting of May 28 Is Led By Louise Kieft TALK AND SPECIAL MUSIC ARE ON "ENDURING BEAUTY" "Enduring Beauty" was the topic by which Miss Louise Kieft com- bined special music and her talk for the Y. W. on May 23. She said that the sublime attribute of Christ's enduring beauty is that it may be reflected in his followers. Enduring beauty, she explained, was multiform and is found in the graces given to man, in the variety of God's gifts to man; and it is a fadeless, a magnetic, and a selfless beauty. Miss Annetta McGilvra played "Nocturne" by Chopin, and Miss Lois Ketel sang "Take Time to be Holy." Devotions were in charge of Miss Beatrice Visser. Speaking on the subject of "Tol- erance," Rev.

Mr. Stanley De Pree, a bass soloist of the Metropolitan Method- ist church of Detroit and former student at Hope College, presented a concert for the entertainment. It included a wide variety of selec- tions from the classical to the popular and humorous, and was en- thusiastically received. Mrs. De (Continued on Page Four) CALENDAR On Monday evening. May 22, the Phi Kappa Delta held its annual spring meeting at the homa ol Prof. Ritter. Customarily, the group celebrates the year's activi- ties with a spring banquet, but since it, w a s thought wise to dis- pense with that for this year, Prof. Ritter very graciously extended an invitation to come to his home. The chief purpose of this spring meeting is to initiate the new mem- bers into the fraternity, and to elect the officers for the coming year. This year, there were seven new members who took the pledge of Phi Kappa Delta. These were: Vera Holle, Marian Wray, Sher- wood Price, Christian Walvoord, Richard Evenhuis, Ralph Danhoff, and Lester Wolterink. These rep- resent the students who have en- tered their first year of forensic activities, and who have come up to the slandards set for Phi Kappa Delta membership. Following the initiation cere- mony. the- following members were elected to fill the various offices for next year; Marvin Kruizenga, president; Joe Esther, secretary and treasurer; Henry Kuizenga, manager of oratory; Marian Wray, manager of women's debate, and Chris Walvoord, manager of men's debate. The remainder of the evening was -pent in a more informal man- ner. Mi.-s Payne and Mr. Ritter discussed briefly the prospects for next year's forensic activities, and expressed the hope that many stu- dents would show an active inter- est in debate, and that Hope would have a very successful year.

The council of the year 1931-1932 with George Painter as president revised the constitution which now provides for the election of a pres- ident by the entire student body. In previous years the president was elected by the senior class only. John Muilenberg, who has so ca- pably served the student body this year is ready to hand the reins of office to the new president who will be elected Friday morning. The council has nominated Don aid Vanden Belt, Marvin Kruizenga and Christian Walvoord. There are, no doubt, others of the pres- ent junior class who are capable of filling this office and would be desired by the student body. If there are, get out a petition for your candidate. Additional names will be placed on the ballot by a petition which has the signature of fifty members of the student body. Petitions must be handed to John Muilenberg before Thurs- day. Nominations will close at noon Thursday! Remember, students, be at chapel Friday morning and elect the one you want as your student council president for next year. o Hope President Is Speaker at College In Iowa PREXY ADDRESSES SENIORS AND ALUMNI OF NORTH- WESTERN JUNIOR Wednesday afternoon at 4:30 President and Mrs. Wichers left in their car for Sioux county, Iowa, where Mr. Wichers will speak on several occasions. On Friday eve- ning he spoke at the alumni ban- quet of the Northwestern Junior College of Orange City. On Sunday the president delivered the bacca- laureate address for the graduat- ing class of the college. He will also speak at the closing chapel services of that college. An ad- dress to the women's auxiliary of the Junior college was given also by President Wichers on Monday. His final speaking engagement was for the convention of the Sioux county Sunday School teachers. On June 2 President and Mrs. Wichers hope to be with us again. o HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE CHOIRS SING AT VESPER The combined A Capella Choirs of Hope College and Holland High School, including about 150 voices, gave the vesper program in the Memorial Chapel, Sunday, May 21.

THE HOME LAHORATORY

Along with increasing perfection in the use of the native tongue, Americans have been developing a parallel interest, neglected until the dawn of modern times. While they have reduced the a r t s of argument and composition to basic formulae, they have at the same time lessened the necessity for argument by the growth of the "scientific a t t i tude." Investigation and research have supplemented, though not supplanted, theory and polemics. In reality, research may be considered a new, irrefutable type of argument giving mute evidence tha t fa r outweighs any verbal barrage.

The man who employs this scientific experimentation in the modern age has invariably been characterized by objec-tiveness. His very investigations have demonstrated how unreliable are his unassisted senses. So the scientist of today in his laboratory is cool, objective, impartial, and methodical, despite the a t tempt of some modern authors to idealize his movements and impart to their infallible regularity the glamor of adventure and the at traction of the unknown.

Scientists and civilians alike, however, have undoubtedly been impressed by a third aspect of modern life: In a high speed age, when business and professional men rely upon brains ra ther than brawn for the essentials of existence, nerves have been tortured and strained to the breaking point. Mental incompatability — temperamental irrascibility, if you will — has become a prominent cause for divorce. Tempers are becoming increasingly difficult to control.

A way out is pointed by the popular trend already referred to. Let the civilian as well as the scientist separate emotion f rom his deeds and motives. Let objectivity be cultivated in the place of impassioned argument . It is sophistical to declare tha t this will delete tiie loveable characterist ics from personalities; it is in spite of, not because of such t ra i ts that we admire others. Who would decry the substitution of a cool, candid consideration of fac ts for an exchange of vehement diatribes? Cavil is not criticism. Let heated, un-thinking, emotional outbursts be confined to their legitimate spheres, forensics and literature. Judiciousness and sagacity will render individuals in their public and private lives at once more likeable and more cognizant of the niceties of social etiquette and human conduct. — S. I'.

That answers not, but by the

A wind-borne music, soft ly elo-

And seeks a token in the vibrant

CURRENT EVENTS

"In no week in the last three years have the repor ts covering

most lines of productive and dis-tr ibutive activity contained so many evidences of consistent im-provement ," is the observation of a leading mercanti le review of last

week. Certain justif ication for such

i view was to be seen in Fr iday ' s market which showed a $1 to $10 flare up in stock prices. If that continues it's "Good-bye, Mr. De-press ion , ' and there ' l l be "no sad-ness of farewell ." v

In spite of denials and censor-hip, there is no doubt tha t an

jgreement has been signed to put an end to the hostilities in north

China between the Chinese and Ja-panese. The te rms of the t ruce are that Chinese forces are to be kept

south of a certain line while the Japanese must remain north of it. 'essation of Chinese "provocat ions" ilso figures in the deal.

LAST MINUTE WORK This is the season of the year when sad stories of post-

poned work are floating about the campus — work tha t simply must be done by June the first, but which will not be begun until May the twenty-ninth. Along with this complaint comes another, that of studying for final examinations. The complaint is the necessity of spending in work all these beau-tiful spring days that seem meant only for play. It is hard to sit in the library, hunched over some educational, philo-sophical or l i terary theme, when outside the birds are sing-ing, the sun is shining and other s tudents are out playing tennis or going on long walks.

Now tha t the student faces this situation he can only make the best of it by cramming or overworking the last few days, and then later wonder why the professor gives him a C or a D. If any of the seniors are guilty of this, we can only say, the past is past. But to those tha t remain there is still the opportunity to develop a new at t i tude toward ; school work. Why not make a resolution tha t never again a t the close of a semester shall we be faced with stacks of unfinished work? A resolution is not enough, however. One must learn to budget one's time so tha t no day or week passes without its full share of work accomplished. There is a radiant feel-ing after having done a thing well and done on time, or bet ter still, a little ahead of time. It will not only save worry and cramming and give time for play when springtime comes, but it also gives the professors an opportunity of getting their work done by the time school closes, and even a professor likes to have a vacation at this season of the year. If we refuse to learn from the experiences of others, let us not be so foolish as to refuse to learn from our own.

The old 5-.")-3 naval ratio main-

tained by Great Dritain, the United States , and J a p a n is again being at tacked, this t ime by Japan , who

demands before the disarmament commission that the ratio be changed in her favor . Both the

British and American delegates op-posed the Japanese proposal. More dilliculties were added when Spain, in behalf of the smaller nations,

asked the abolition of all battle-

ships of more than 1U.0UU tens. o

The g rea tes t need of our country

is for honest men. Sturdy Chris-

lege g radua tes who become the

leaders in our nation. Many people

have ent rus ted their ear th ly goods

and their lives to unscrupulous men

who have cheated them. Now these

same people a re looking for men

and leaders in whom they can safe-

tions for a college gradua te .

A good charac ter does not come

A means for ex te rmina t ing the

mosquito has been suggested by

Joseph M. Ginsburg, bio-chemist,

working on entomology at the New

Jersey exper iment stat ion. A lar-

vicide of pyre th rum emulsified with

kerosene he has found will not in-

jure fish, wa te r fowl or plant life,

and also will not stain., or deterio-

rate rubber, as the use of fuel oil

does. Though more is required pel

given area , yet the price is lower for equal effectiveness. It can be used with sa fe ty in water used for bathing, and el iminates fire hazard.

* • • Recently in the American Acad-

emy of Music, Philadelphia, music played by the Philadelphia Sym-phony orchestra was reproduced in perspective. A tambourine shaken

before the microphone in the dis-tant room was reproduced by the three loud speakers to give the illu-

sion that the tambourine shaker had flitted down one end of the s tage to the other. The positions of the various ins t ruments could be

visualized as if on the s tage. Music can be reproduced as a whisper or with g rea t e r volume than the origi-nal sound.

F a t e and Old Man Weather , a f t e r a week of glorious spr ing days at-tempted to throw the wet blanket

on the annual Emersonian s tag house party a t Wilbur Ensfield's summer home on the shores of Lake Michigan. But the spir i t and enthusiasm tha t pervades this red le t ter day for the boys of Phi Tau Nu, could not be held down and a perfect ly glorious t ime was had by all. Af t e r a "beach roas t , " held within the confines of the spacious kitchen and dining room of "Apple Blossom Manor," the Seniors, Jun-

« « • The regular weekly meet ing of

the f ra te rn i ty was held Thursday evening with Yankee Doodle Wie-gerink opening the fun by leading the men in a few of the old favo-rites.

The main bout of the evening was a debate, "Resolved that United Sta tes recognize Russia ," with Marve Kruizenga punching for the aff i rmative and Henry Kui-zenga doing the negat ive work. The debate was a tie.

The other two numbers on the program consisted of two vocal solos by Milt Spaan, who sang, " Jus t a Wearying fo r You," and

"That Wonderful Mother of Mine," and a paper by Kenneth De Jong on " the Good and Bad of News-papers and Magazines."

Lloyd Coster as mas te r critic told the f ra te rn i ty ju^ t how good the p rogram was and fo r what rea-sons.

The regular F ra te r meeting of

the past week opened with prayer

by F ra t e r Decker.

The first number on the program

was FraK'i Maring 's "Philosophy

of Life." His ideas wore thor-

oughly approved by his audience.

F r a t e r s Muilenberg and Van

Domelen supplied the music. "Ted-

dy" Muilenberg played "Diane,"

"Margie , " and other favori tes .

"Bondy" Van Domelen gave the

boys "Soliloquy"' and another pop-

ular piece from the "Band Wag-on."

F r a t e r Plasman read one of the

best humor numbers ot the year .

He entitled the paper " Jus t F ish"

and explained many i n t e r e s t i n g

cluding why F ra t e r "S tu rgeon"

Decker had such large downward (x l remi l ies of his legs.

The last number was a serious

The Hope golf team this year

is without question the best golf

team tha t Hope has ever had. Af t -

er losing the f i r s t match of the

year to (Jrand Rapids Junior , the

Orange and Blue team has hung

up seven s t ra ight victories. In-

cluded among their victims were

Albion, Olivet, Grand Rapids Jun-

ior and Muskegon Junior . (Julf has ne \e r been :i conference

sport . However, at a recent meet-

ing of the conference coaches, it

was decided to make golf a confer-

ence sport next year . Hope has.

no doubt, the best team in the con-

ference, and if it were a conference

sport would easily win the title

this year . "Ben" Timmer, Hope No. 1 man,

has boon playing excellent golf

this spr ing . Included in his scores

is a 71 and several other low TO's.

Most of Hope's scores have ranged

between 75 and 85 dur ing the sea-

son. "Russ" Paa lman, Harvey

Scholien and "Les" Serier make up

the golf team. " R " Harvey Schol-

ten, Hope's No. 3 man, is captain

of the team and has ably guided his

team to a most successful season.

"Capt . Harv" thoroughly believes

that pie is the best thing for the

golfers to t rain on. Fu tu re play-

ers, see the captain for fu r the r in-

format ion. Four matchcs still remain on the

golf schedule, one with Albion,

two with Kazoo and another with

Grand Rapids Junior . We wish

them all the luck in the world.

These boys are to be congratulated

for they have financed their team

themselves. They have gone out

and represented the school, but

they have received no financial aid

f rom the athletic board. Three of

the members of the team will re-

turn next year , therefore , the

Orange and Blue should gain the

f i rs t golf championship of the con-

ference.

a row and has gone through three

yea r s of competition without los-

tion. Last summer he won a set

the most popular man at the games

on Saturday. He was selected as

"clerk of the course." He was

T H E man of importance. If any-

one wanted to know anyth ing . Prof,

o HIGH SCHOOL AND

COLLEGE CHOIRS SING AT VESPER

Spr ing has arrived and with its

coming our fellow athle tes

thoughts turn to many things and

they are seen doing many things

quite out of the ordinary. For in-

stance, there a re only a few who

really think about next year ' s foot-

ball and basket ball seasons. There

are only a few ol the football and

basket ball player who play on

our tennis and golf t eams . Well, then, jus t what do they do? Well,

one of the famous au tho r s s ta tes

the answer very well when he said

that their thoughts turn towards

love. Of course, the spr ingt ime

isn't the only t ime this occurs. But

we must give our boys credit for

ihe s tudying they do in the spring.

Yes. they try to squeeze a semes-

ter 's work in four weeks ' time.

More power to them. But on the

o ther hand they a ren ' t the only

ones who do this.

Our golf team is making a name

for itself. The members of the

team have lost only one match

and they have won six s t ra igh t

victories. This entire team with

the exception of one' comes back

next yea i . We expect many vic-

tories f rom them at tha t time. As

you know, our golf team is—ah—

er—supervised by Coach Hinga.

Coach Hinga traveled to Albion

last Sa turday and played golf with

the various coaches. Now Profes-

sor Raymond was "cldVk of the

course" at this meet. We do not

know the exact meaning of this

term. It should mean that the per-

son involved is the one who tables

the scores of the t rack meet, but

we rathei have an idea that Prof .

Raymond holding down the position

of "clerk of the course" carried an

adding machine around the course

for the benefit of Mr. Hinga and

the other coaches. Coach Hinga

is really a good golfer , coming in

with the lowest score, but the cali-

bre of his competi tors is not

known. The tennis team also went to

Albion last Sa tu rday . They left

Fr iday af ternoon and spent the

evening there. Now that ' s que-er.

There is a question in mind as to

what they did for en ter ta inment

that night. We know that our

boys do not especially care foi

early hours of sleep. Of course,

there is a nudist colony near that

college town but suspicion in this

case would be out of the question.

But then on the ( t h e r hand our

boys did not win a match that day

so it is recommended that an in-

vestigation be held.

T H E WEATHERCOCK wishes

all a merry vacation and hopes

that our athletes come back in the

"pink of condition" to win those

M. 1. A. A. football and basket

ball championships next year. The

au thor of this art icle sincerely

hopes that > ou have enjoyed this

bit of " tommy rot ." —J. L.

WINTER GREENS NOT T R U E

WINTER frreens are not ut nil suited for ;rood puttlus. The

frozen ground and tfrass roots make Ihe ball run anywhere but where it should f^o. Those of us fortunate enough to spend the winter in Cali-fornia will lind summer conditions prevailing. It is the same in Flor-ida where the greens are not en-tirely frozen. I'ineliurst lias sand greets and the hall runs true.

If one plays a lot of golf on fro-zen greens it is best not to take the jianie too seriously and it would be just as well to putt with a mid-Iron. or any club but the putter because one may lose his putt ins; touch if he attempts to stick by the putter alt winter.

A telephone does more than lessen worry. It serves the household many times daily in business and social affairs. And in emer-gencies, it enables you to summon doctor, firemen, police or other aid, instantly.
