New Student - Faculty Committees Are Formed

In an effort to form a closer association between the faculty and students of Hope College, the Student Council has set up additional Student-Faculty Committees for those areas not already covered by existing committees. A committee was organized to study the existing Student-Faculty Committees and after much consideration, live new committees were or-ganized. The members of the Committee on Committees wore: Mr. Granberg, Dr. Hawkin-son, Bill Hinga, Bob Hill, Roy Lumsden, Connie Shilling, Merrill Noordhoff a n d f o r m e r Student Council President Nick Yonker.

The Executive Committee, will be composed of the President of the College; the Deans of the Col-lege, Men, and Women; Student Council Officers, and a faculty rep-resentat ive to the Student Council. The Public Relations Committee will be composed of the Publicity Director, representatives f rom the Musical O r g a n i z a t i o n s , Pallette and Masque, the ANCHOR, De-bate and Oratory, UNESCO Work-shop, IRC; two members f rom the student body; two faculty mem-bers; and a Student Council Rep-resentative.

Activity Changes Discussed 4t Michigan Speech League

On Saturday May 20 a meeting was held at East Lansing on the Michigan State College Campus of the Michigan Inter-collegiate Speech League. Most schools were represented. Representing Hope were Dr. Wm. Schrier, Lambert Ponstein and Donald Buteyn. The prupose of the meeting was to dis-cuss recommendations for changes in the conduct of extra-curricular activities in the areas of debate, oratory, extem-poraneous speaking and group discussion. The suggestions made and agreed upon by two-thirds of the schools present will be submitted as recommendations to the annual fall meeting of the league.

Among the most important rec-ommendations m a d e w e r e t h a t mixed debate teams composed of a man and woman be permitted and tha t tournaments be held for such groups in addition to the tourna-ments which are held fo r the sep-ara te men's and women's groups.

Another change in debate pro-cedure was the suggestion that four rounds of debate be held but tha t only two be participated in by debaters. The other two rounds they would act as observers. Thus students would be benefited con-siderably by observing more ex-perienced debaters. This would also provide more of an audience situa-tion.

Another change related to the variation of style of debating in the different rounds, some being the regular style and others the crossquestion method.

In the field of oratory where the League Director for the past 8 ye^rs has been Dr. Schrier, no changes were made.

In the field of extemporaneous speaking it was agreed tha t the lo-cal school director should send five subjects on widely separated areas to the Director of Extemporaneous Speaking which his c o n t e s t a n t would like to speak about. He must

Big Opportunity! Be a Guinea Pig

Professor Haverkamp, of the Psychology Department, is con-ducting a research experiment in human verbal learning on the Hope College Campus.

He is using some Hope College students, particularly Sophomores, as subjects in this experiment. The students are tested for one half of an hour on two consecutive days and one hour on the third day. These students who have partici-pated find it interest ing work.

Any student who will be staying or who will be through with exams early can make an appointment to assist in this research.

During the summer. Professor Haverkamp will probably re turn to the University of Iowa to complete his experiment.

Dr. Balazsi Addresses IRC Dr. E l i z a b e t h Balazsi , Hope student from Budapest,

Hungary addressed the International Relations Club at its last meeting of the year on Communism in her Homeland. Dr. Balazsi referred to Hungary as ah unwilling satelite of Russia, neither Teuton nor Sl&v, but a democratic peaceful farming nation.

Afte r briefly d i s c u s s i n g the many-sided conflict between the United States and Russia, Dr. Bal-azsi stated tha t America is only isafe if Europe has democratic gov-ernments. She felt there was a great deal of t ru th in Pres. Roose-velt's s ta tement tha t the grea tes t mistake in statesmanship in the ^Oth Century was the dismember-ment of the Austr ia-Hungary em-pire a f t e r the first World War , perhaps even preventing Hit ler and Stalin f rom rising to such great power.

Dr. Balazsi described Russia 's "l iberation" of Budapest on Christ-mas Eve, 1944 as a scene of g r e a t chaos, fires, and looting. There was no food or water fo r several weeks., and thousands of people died. Propaganda troops arrived with the first wave and set out to destroy &11 tha t is above the Rus-sian standard of living. A concrete illustration of this was t h a t a lowly hospital jani tor was th rea t -ened with death as a member of the burgeoisie on the evidence t h a t he slept in a bed and a te off a table. Only by showing his cal-loused hands could he convince the Soldiers t ha t he was a member of the working class.

"Music Hath Charm . • . Aside from its athletic teams, an institution can be represented to

no grea ter advantage than by its musical organizations. As another academic year approaches preterition, it is well tha t the musical organizations of Hope College, their members, and especially their leaders be extended our thanks and congratulations for unusual accom-plishment under conditions of comparative apathy.

Again the Glee Clubs more than paid for the expense of their tours by the inestimable good will which they generated wherever they appeared. The Choir is to be thanked both for the few brief moments of reverent contemplation which it provided each morning and also for that 30 seconds of grace which habitual latecomers came to rely on so heavily. The band is to be remembered for its noble efforts to distill a little of the spiri t that theoretically lies ferment ing in the phlegmatic Dutch breast. The Madrigal Singers, ". . . not without honor save in their own country," must be commended for very successful and mod-erately remunerative performances beyond the campus confines. Their success can only be at tr ibuted to long-suffering leadership. Thanks are also due the 30 or so recitalists who punctuated otherwise monotonous study nights with programs of professional caliber.

The Orchestra deserves a paragraph of its own. In an institution as traditionally conservative as Hope is and necessarily must be, it is gra t i -fying to see tha t contemporary musical effort, itself so un-conservative, controversial, and often indiscreet, has found as a champion the Hope College Orchestra. Many of the works played this past season received near-premier performances. If in time some of these achieve the class-ical s ta ture of Beethoven and Brahms masterpieces, then Hope College

will be able to bathe in reflected glory. But this is only incidental. The

important thing is tha t here and now Hope College, largely through

the orchestra, is performing a highly important function in the de-

velopment of contemporary musical culture.

Unfortunately, the man who is chiefly responsible for this position of

prominence will not be with us next year. Morrette Rider will take a

year 's leave of absence for fu r ther study in conducting in New York.

His presence will be sadly missed by the college as a whole but by the

orchestra in particular. We hope that the coming year may be very

profitable for Mr. and Mrs. Rider, but we also hope they will not fo rge t

to re turn to us in the fall of '51. D. H.

Commencement In a few days, Hope's s tudents and faculty will bid farewell to another

group of Seniors who will enter the Chapel fo r the last t ime as students.

Af te r the commencement exercises, these men and women will place the

tassel of their caps on the lef t side and proceed down the aisle to enter

the evergrowing ranks of Hope College Alumni.

What a short space of time has passed since they entered Hope Col-

lege for the first time and wandered dazedly through Freshman Regis-

tration. Acclimating themselves quickly to college life, they plunged

into the four-year routine of classes, midterms, c ramming for exams

and finals. But it was not all work. There were f r a t e rn i ty and sorority

parties, May Days, All-College Sings, basketball games, football games,

and holidays to liven the passing semesters.

And before they have t ime to catch their breath, i t ' s June, and the

seemingly neverending four years of study has drawn to a close. With

their 126 hours and honor points, majors and minors in hand, they are

ready to be graduated.

But f rom here on, w h a t ? What is next on the agenda? For some • <<•-

September will call them back to school at universities for g radua te

work. Dental and medical schools and seminaries have accepted many

of the graduates for f u r t h e r study. Others go directly to positions in

schools throughout the country. All, no mat ter what their destinations

are looking forward to the f u t u r e with hope and fa i th .

If ever graduates needed these two mainstays to face the problems of

this life, it is now. No one knows how long th is so-called "peace" wil

remain within i ts strained boundaries. No one knows if the economic

s t ructure of this country is going to continue to remain intact. Cost o:

living, housing, economic problems, keeping peace — these are the issues

which face the graduates .

But no mat te r what the f u t u r e brings, whether hardships or goo<

fortune, these graduates , like those before them, will face the years

ahead with Hope. Their lives will be filled with usefulness, will be

credit to themselves and their country, and God granting-, will be peace

ful lives. So here 's to the "Class of '50", the prayers and best wishes f o r

success f rom those who follow you, are with you as you leave our

Alma Mater.

Last issue! Is it possible! To

link that the poor old Music Box

is just about ready to close his lid

for the whole summer and won't

see his f r iends until next fall rolls

around! We weep tears of sorrow

at the thought of the separation,

ile has resolved, though, with ali

i,he notes and measures at his dis-

posal to live a good useiul life

iiext year r ight here in his old fa -

ailiar corner. The only things is

cnat he is get t ing tired of his old

name. He's Had it for quite a few

years now and he, like a musical prima donna, is a f ra id of being yped. He'd hate it if he thought

all he was good lo r was reporting campus news and couldn't think any l a r the r than the boundaries ol Hope's campus! He'd like very much to know what you think ol ius plan for next year. Here's what iiis plan is:

1. He'd like to change his name, i t would make him feel young and rejuvenated. ^

2. He'd like to add a new num-ber to his performances. What he had in mind was something like a record number in which he could tell you about all the new things he has heard about in the musical world. He doesn't want to do this every issue necessarily. Jus t of ten enough to prove he's worthy of the task. Besides, he feels that we all could do with more of a knowledge of the world of music and he feels that not only would such a corner help you, but it would also keep him on his musical toes!

3. He would like your opinions on all he had planned. You can tell him by writ ing to The Anchor Office, Hope College, Music Box. Please don't for-get to let him know, because he's quite anxious to please all of his readers.

Back to business! Congratula-ions to Lee Sneden for a most ex-

cellent organ recital, Sunday, May 21. He thrilled us all and we're ooking forward to hearing more

of Lee in his musical career. Good uck, Lee!

Along wilh Lee, we were t reated o a recital by the Madrigal Sing-

ers, wlio are — sadly — less known to the average Hopeite than are the other musical organizations on this campus. This shouldn't be so. The singing of madrigals is an old Snglish custom and one which we eel should be encouraged. These

songs are t ruly beautiful in their simplicity and harmony. Let's give hese singers our support. I know

it's ra ther late in the year to s ta r t plugging for them, but maybe most of us could remember until next year. Let's hope so! They need our support. The recital was wonder-ful. Congratulations to you all!

Herb Ritsema also gave us a chance to hear some good music on ^lay 31. Herb is one of our best

pianists and plans to go into com-)osition later on in his career. Sood luck to you, too. Herb, and congratulations on a grand per-formance. We're hoping to hear some of. your compositions in the

future . Well, I guess the Music Box is

just about run down for this year . He'll be res t ing up north this sum-mer and will re turn (complete with t a n ! — h e hopes!) ' to next year 's Anchor issues! So long! Have really nice summer, all of you am we'll be seeing you around nex fall!

Nancy Smith P.S. Don't fo rge t to write him

about your opinions. He really needs them and wants to know jus what you think!

Hazel N. Kleyn Former Hopeite Dies Suddenly In the church where she was to

lave been married, funeral serv-ices were held for Hazel Kleyn who passed away on May 20, a vic-im of acute leukemia. She ended

ler life with the same smile by which we had always known her.

At her home church in Indian-apolis, she was actively engaged in the work of her Lord. Here at •iope she was an active partici-pant in the campus activities. She was a member of the YWCA cabi-net, WAL, and WAA boards, and

sophomore counselor at Beach ottage. We will always remem-

ber the moments of enjoyment which her beautiful voice brought o us. Her vivacious personality

provided us with m a n y happy lours, and her life exemplified her Christian fai th.

Hazel left school a t the end of he last semester in preparation or her marriage to Earle Van ieyningen, also of Indianapolis. ?he wedding plans were continued

until Thursday evening, when it was discovered tha t she was ill.

he following day she was taken o St. Francis hospital. She died

i t 10:30 Saturday, four hours be-ore her wedding was to have tak-n place.

We at Hope will long remember Hazel and feel tha t our own lives lave been enriched through know-ng her.

Approximately $40.00 has been ollected from Hazel 's fr iends on

campus for a memorial g i f t . A ommittee is planning to purchase

a large f ramed picture to be hung in the Young People's Room of he church of which Hazel was an

active member. The picture will carry a metal plate which will abel the picture as a memorial

g i f t f rom Hope College friends.

Hail To Our Alma Mater

Dear Mr. Editor... Dear Mr. Editor:

By the at t i tude of some of the college students toward the Health Clinic, one would think tha t our prime purpose over here is to curb their freedom and encroach upon heir r ights and privileges. To be

greeted with "How nasty you a re" when visitors are restr icted for the protection of the patient, is not American, nor is it expected of anyone in Hope College. Quaran-ine regulations and restriction of

activities and contact with others are not to be broken, nor are they directed against the individual's interests, selfish though they may )e. College students are expected o be old enough to cooperate and

conform to regulations, and not to be placed behind locked doors or mrred windows. It is the actions of

a few selfish and unprincipled in-dividuals which always make the others suffer with them.

"College Days"

A Drama In Four Acts The time has almost come when the curtain must be drawn on another

act of our play, "College Days." For the Seniors it marks the end of Act IV, the last of our four-act play. For the Freshmen the play has jus t gotten under way with Act I, and the Sophomores and Juniors have either gotten themselves involved in the plot or have finally reached the climax in Acts II and III respectively.

This play, which is regarded as the most wonderful and most educa-tional experience in the players' lives, is really quite an old production. In fact , it dates back to 1862 when the curtain first rose on Act I of the first Freshman class. The scene is the same for all acts. All the action takes place at Hope College in the little town of Holland, Michigan.

The plot isn't too involved, and it is really quite evident throughout all four acts. In Act I a group of "g reen" Freshmen find themselves

upon a new threshhold. They are entering a new experience and must

be oriented into it. The college faculty, the s tudent council and the

upper classmen come to their assistance to help relieve their bewilder-

ment. Here we can see the first signs of the plot. This assistance is

meant to (1) encourage cooperative participation in group life for the

development of Christ ian living and leadership; (2) to introduce the

s tudent to organized fields of learning; and (3) to t rain the student

in understanding and evaluating the thoughts of others.

Throughout Acts I and II our players begin to .take part in the

campus functions. They find many varied activities to keep themselves

occupied. The college offers many sports activities both for participation

and speculation. The Y organizations meet once every week. Concerts

and other musical programs are presented quite regularly. We can now

see the plot begin to thicken. We can detect the format ion of Christian

characters, and the Christian atmosphere. We can see the building of

s t rong bodies through physical t ra ining.

The curtain rises on Act III. The players have now chosen their fields

of study and we see tha t they are being well provided with intensive

study in those fields. Towards the end of the act we can see them reap

their rewards when certain ones are chosen to the honor societies and

others receive scholarships and awards.

Act IV is the grand finale. I t is the culmination of all the hard work

put into the first three acts. For some it is a happy ending because it

marks an important milestone in their lives. For others it is said because

it brings an abrupt ending to so happy a play. But be it happy or sad,

it is still easy to see tha t the players who finished Act IV have come

in constant contact with all the aims of the college and are now ready

to enter into the fu tu re with enriched lives. To our cast of Act IV we

wish all the best for a successful f u t u r e ! To our other players we leave

the advice to make the most of your college days because the final

curtain will be drawn much sooner than you realize! J . B.

Hope College Clubs Meet " H " CLUB

The last H Club activity for this semester was a picnic held in honor of the graduat ing lettermen. There were about fo r ty persons present, including students and faculty. Between the raindrops the boys indulged in some vigor-ous baseball and a grand time was had by all.

Following the jovialities, a short business meeting was held. Sev-eral new projects were planned fo r next fal l and an election of new officers was held. New officers a re : Bud Vande Wege, President; Jack Vande Velde, Vice-president; Don Hoffman, Secretary, and Ron Bos, Treasurer . Those who served in office this past year were: Hinga, B e c k s f o r t , Kloote and Muyskens.

Graduating let termen were en-couraged to r e c o m m e n d Hope's athletic program to prospective athletic material t ha t they may encounter while serving in their

f u t u r e capacities as educators and

other re lated fields. In fact , it

would be a grand idea fo r all Hope-

ites to do the same. The H Club

will a r range to enter ta in prospec-

tive athletic students if they should

. ENGLISH MAJORS

"Pr ide and Pre judice" by Jane Austin and s t a r r i n g Laurence Olivier, was r e c e n t l y presented before all the l i tera ture classes. I t was a portrayal of English life and customs dur ing the 18th cen-tu ry . Studying the classics by means of motion p i c t u r e s has proved to be a very successful experiment. I t is hoped t h a t we will be privileged to enjoy more like it in the fu tu re . P lans are being made for more w o r k s of th is na tu re next fal l .

The English Majors Club wishes to take this opportunity to express

The new officers fo r the coming year were installed, and the members gathered fo r punch and cookies to close another year of service. I t was reported tha t $75.00 had been secured to send to Yokosuka, Japan to aid in the building of a church there. The m o n e y w a s raised

"Mr . P im Passes B y " brought many extremely favorable com-ments . The f ac t t h a t i t was s tu-dent directed is significant, and a g rea t deal of credit is due to Ray Mart in f o r th is work.

P&M is losing the following g r a d u a t i n g seniors: J a m e s Ben-nett , A n n e t t e Cousins, Edward Dunning, R o g e r G u n n , Clifford Haycock, Myron Hermance, Felicia Hrbek, J a c k Ketchum, Elizabeth Koch, Kenneth Leetsma, Richard Leonard, Raymond Mar t in , Law-rence Masse, Mart in Mepyans, Mar-vin Mepyans , William Nea tham-mer, J a m e s Pa t te r son , Wendell Pyle, Marion Reichert , Donna Sluy-ter , Evelyn Van Dam, Hermina Van Egmond, F red Vanden Bosch, John Vergeer and Mary Voskuil. In view of this l a rge number , P&M will need many replacements next year . There is room f o r peo-ple wi th many ta lents besides ac t -ing.

disease swept over H u n g a r y with the coming of the Russians as thousands of Hungar ian males were infected by an a rmy of Russian women, who actual ly pursued the men. One-half the population con-tracted Asiat ic syphilis, most of which goes unt rea ted due to lack of d rugs and the shyness of the people.

The Communis ts were kind a t first and opened the schools and churches. A f t e r their crushing election defea t in which they won only 16% of the votes, they pushed into the par l iament by t h r e a t s and began mass deportat ions, in which more than a million people were forcibly removed f rom the i r homes and country.

The church in H u n g a r y is only at tended by middle-aged people to-day. The religious leaders a r e in prison. In 20 years , according to Dr. Balazsi, there will be no young people in the churches, as they are allowed only to study Russian and Russian approved courses. Church life is classed with the "decadent" Western culture.

Dr. Balazsi closed her ta lk by saying t h a t the Hungar ian people could not unders tand how the grea t American democracy could have made the Yal ta ag reement and al-lowed Communism to include 100 million people behind the iron cur-tain. Thei r f a i th is centered in the type of democracy t a u g h t by Abra-ham Lincoln, and upon i t they have believed American government was based.

Results of Culture Tests

Announced To Sophomores In the spring of 1949 upon recommendation by the Educa-

tional Policies Committee, the American Council on Education General Culture Test was given for the first time to all soph-omores. In the spring of this year, the examination was given to the present sophomore class. This practice is expected to be continued in the future.

The purpose of the examinat ion is two-fold:

1. It aims to help the student, giving him a measure of his achievement in six basic areas as compared wilh 10,-100 sophomores from colleges all over the country. The results of the test can be a way of guiding the student in the selection of his major field and in the selection of elective courses to overcome deficiencies discovered in the test.

2. The results can be of value to the faculty in helping them to analyze the success of their own program of in-struction as well as to point out in what ways their basic instruction may have gaps. It can also help faculty counselors and advisors in understand-ing the student's capacities and in helping him to make wise decisions in his further educational program.

The examination is not used to de-termine passing or failing of the stu-dent in any course.

Each s tudent who took the tes t in March has been given a profile sheet point ing out the relat ive suc-cess of his examinat ion in compari-son with the national norms. In ad-dition, the results of the group have been analyzed to see how they compare with the national grouping. In general the college has a fa i r ly normal distribution compared with the national scales. There a re relatively few in the lowest decile and the re is a special concentration in the middle dec-iles. As f o r the individual tes ts , science and mathemat ics a g a i n show the la rges t number of high percentiles. The median scores f o r each of the tests is as fol lows: Current Problems — 50 percenti le; History and Social Studies — 5 2 percentile; L i te ra ture — 47 percen-tile; Science — 57 percent i le ; Fine A r t s — 46 percenti le; Mathemat ics — 60 percentile; Total — 53 per-centile. The scores of the last

year ' s sophomore group a r e sl ightly lower than t h a t of this year 's . The median scores a r e as fol lows: Cur-r en t Problems — 53 percentile; His-tory and Social Studies — 49 per-centile; L i t e ra tu re — 38 percenti le; Science — 54 percenti le; F ine A r t s —43 percenti le; Mathemat ics — 58 percenti le; Tota l — 46 percentile. The most significant gain was in the a rea of L i te ra tu re . One o ther i tem might be significant; a s tudy of thp scores of the same group of s tudents in the A.C.E. Psychologi-cal exam shows a sl ightly h igher median score than tha t of last year , and there is an especially big increase in the number of s tudents with high scores (80 and above) over-against the preceding year .

If there a r e any implications to be drawn, the obvious ones are , first t h a t the resul ts a r e a lmost universally h igher this yea r than last and second t h a t th is increase may be explained a t least in p a r t by the g r e a t e r degree of nat ive intelligence of the group r a the r than increase in quali ty of in-struction. The most significant in-crease, t h a t in Li tera ture , may be due to the f a c t t h a t a conscious effort was made to ge t the sopho-mores to read more widely as sup-plementary reading. In one a rea alone, there was a decrease over last year ' s median score — t h a t was in Cur ren t Problems. Pe rhaps one cause is the decline in the number of older s tudents and an accompanying decline in in teres t in cur ren t a f fa i r s .

Seniors Awarded Honors Faculty

At the Cha

With the school year d rawing to a close, congratulat ions a r e in or-der fo r the f reshmen chemistry s tudents who have survived a year of suffocating gases, deadly poison, flying test- tubes and so-called lab ass is tants .

Their knowledge has been great ly increased through their yea r of lab work. One student has done con-siderable research in the field of explosives and periodically comes th rough with a shocking blast in his morning lab. Less ambit ious s tudents are content with s t a r t ing fires, pu t t ing sodium in water , and squi r t ing water a t each other . Probably this last act ivi ty is a s a fe ty precaution in case a fire does s ta r t . At least they haven' t t r ied to determine whether cyanide and arsenic really do kill.

The following poem is dedicated to the lucky s tudents with a f t e r -noon labs.

When the sun shines br ight these days in May,

Some s tudents go to the beach and play.

Others, with their heads held high.

Go to the labs, their unknowns to t ry .

A f t e r several hours over a bun-son burner .

The scientists think with joy on being a learner .

They feel only sorrow for those a t the lake,

Who haven ' t learned to work f o r "science's sake."

Lampen Chosen By Dr. Lubbers To Attend ICM

Professor A. Lampen has been designated by Dr. Lubbers to rep-resent Hope College at the Inter-national Congress of Mathemat i -cians to be held a t Harvard Uni-

versity th is summer . This Congress was planned fo r

1940 but the outbreak of World War II made a pos tponement nec-essary. This will be the first inter-national ga the r ing of mathemat i -cians since 1936 and this is expect-ed to be a truly in ternat ional one with all countries represented. The official languages of the Congress are English, French, German, I tal-ian, Russian.

The Conference will be divided into several sections. Mr. Lampen is espscially interested in the sec-tion on Mathemat ical Physics and \pp l : ed Mathematics .

Accompanying Mr. Lampen as a representat ive of H o p e C o l l e g e Alumni will be Mr. E. T. Welmers who received his Ph.D. a t the Uni-versi ty of Michigan and is now Chief of the Dynamics Group of the Bell Ai rc ra f t Corporation.

Kleis, Hinga Meet With MIAA Board

On May 18th and 19th Prof . Clarence Kleis and Bill Hinga, fac-ulty and s tudent representat ive , re-spectively, at tended the Board of Directors meet ing of the MIAA at Kalamazoo, along with coaches Hinga, Vander Bush, DeVette, and Weller. At this meeting the coach-es of the several colleges recom-mended to t h e b o a r d cer ta in changes which might be put into effect in the consti tution governing the MIAA. These suggest ions were considered and discussed by the board thoroughly; however, final decision on all points was reserved until a l a te r meet ing which will take place during November, of this year .

Rider Will Leave To Continue Study

Beginning next September , Pro-fessor Morre t te Rider of the De-p a r t m e n t of Music will take a year 's leave of absence f o r f u r t h e r study toward his doctorate in music education. The study will be unr der taken a t Columbia Univers i ty in New York.

Al though his ten ta t ive course of s tudy has not been completed, he intends to concentrate on prelim-inary requi rements fo r the D.Ed, degree. By September, 1951, the date of his scheduled r e tu rn , only his final thesis will remain to be finished.

Mr. Rider will spend the summer at Hancock, Maine, s tudying under the eminent conductor P ie r re Mon-teux, well known for his long as-sociation with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra . Las t sum-mer, it will be recalled, Mr. Rider studied a t Tanglewood in Massa-chuset ts with Serge Koussevitzky, recently ret ired conductor of the Boston Symphony.

Nickname Contest Will Start Anew Next September

The S tuden t Council has an-nounced t h a t t he campaign f o r t he nickname of the Hope College A t h -letic organiza t ions has been con-cluded. The campaign did not b r ing sa t i s fac to ry resu l t s and a f t e r much consideration, the Council ha s de-cided t h a t i t would be be t t e r to be-gin a new campaign in the fa l l with the hope t h a t s tudent in te res t will be be t t e r and t h a t a sui table

nickname may be chosen.

The presen t Council has endeav-ored in many ways to find a sui t -able nickname. It fo rmed an ini-tial commit tee to t ake charge of the drive. When the two names 'F ree B o o t e r s " and " F i g h t i n g -Dutch" met with l i t t le approval

from the s tuden t body, the A N -CHOR published a list of 25 top n i c k n a m c s w i t h "Anchormen , " "Speros ," "Crusade r s , " and " F r e e Booters" as the winning selections. At a final meet ing of the commit-tee on the nickname, it was de-cided t h a t none of these names was appropr ia te f o r the spir i t of Hope College. I t is hoped t h a t th rough the summer some name may be suggested with a r esu l t an t cam-paign in the fal l . It has also been suggested t h a t the theme of Home-coming be built around the new

nickname, if one is chosen.

Senior Delphians were guests of

honor a t our last l i terary meeting

of the year. Small black mor tar

boards were used as p rograms for

the theme, "So Long for Awhile."

Devotions were in charge of

Carol Crist. Also on the serious

side, Marilyn Veldman delved back

into the t radi t ion of Facul ty Hon-

ors by let t ing us in on some of the

activities of f o r m e r illustrious

Hope grads . Wistful ly we listened

to a tr io bring back happy mem-ories.

Nancylee and Gypsy Dee armed

with tea leaves and crystal ball,

revealed the exciting fu tu re s of

another crop of Delphians as they

leave these hallowed halls. Critic

Ellie Short tried in vain to find a

THESAURIAN It was the Theta 's privilege to

enter ta in the f r e shman girls Fri-day, May 26. It was "Anchors Aweigh," as T h e t a p r e s i d e n t Cynthia Fikse shoved us off on a short cruise. The "Life Preserver" was presented in the devotions of the evening by The ta Margaret Schoonveld. Theta Van Farowe then presented much information about the "Quiet Sea," giving us many useful fac t s about the oceans of the world. "Sea Chanty" , by Theta Mar tha Schoonveld proved to be the beautiful song, "Ship Ahoy." T h e t a H i l d a (Breezy) Baker entertained with "Full Rig" — anecdotes taken f rom her own WAVE days. (The good old days.) The Thetas then dedicated a song to the f reshman girls giving them inspiration for the coming school year. The cruise ended by "All Hands on Deck" to join in singing some group songs led by Theta Eleanor Robinson, to the tune of the laughter of the girl f rom "Scot-l a n d " — Garbo Zeng.

At a recent short business meet-ing the Thetas elected Louise Lola to serve as their Student Council r e p r e s e n t a t i v e , and Margaret Schoonveld as W.A.L. representa-tive. Plans were also made for the coming houseparty a t The Castle.

Although it is r a the r late, t he Thetas would like to take this means once again to congratulate Theta Eleanor Robinson upon her induction into Alcor.

DORIAN Beware! Spring fever will get

you if you don't watch out. The affliction s e t t l e d upon all the Dorians during their May 19 meet-ing. Not the least bit daunted, Sue Roest imparted the prescription in the form of devotions. Margaret De Valois administered the medi-cine in her paper on what the well-versed young bachelor thinks of women. Amid gales of laughter Marcia Van Tatenhove presented the tonic in her most humorous of humor papers. N o o n e minded spring fever when it came in such delightful form.

On May 26, Dorian underclass-men were royally entertained by the seniors in the celebration of Senior Night. The meeting was fittingly opened with devotions by Mary Kooyers, followed by a class history presented by Joan (on the map) Wilson. With due apologies to the other Friday night residents of Voorhees basement, Dorians roared with laughter a t the antics of the class of 1950. Nan Thompson and Betty Eskite f u r t h e r threat-ened the plaster on the ceiling with their conversational humor paper in which the f a t e s of all Dorians were revealed. Mary Lou McRae presented the class will which didn't leave much to the expectant underclassmen. Trudy Kloosterman saddened the festivi-ties by presenting the senior's farewell to the Dorians who will carry on next year. Not sad for long, Mary Voskuil and Mary Lou McRae entertained with a (you should pardon the expression) can-can. J im Lock, our h o n o r a r y Dorian, dropped in to entertain with a few wonderful accordian selections. Dorians are proud of their illustrious seniors and wish them the best of everything for a glorious fu ture , in exchange for the glorious past they have left us.

o SOROSIS

Sophomore's t reat , Sorosis' tradi-tional sophomore meeting was held on Friday evening. The main event was the presentation of the sopho-more g i f t to the sorority. Molly Buttles was the chairman of the meeting. Sophomore Barb Wier-enga read the scripture. A tribute was paid to the sophs by President Helen Dykstra, and Eunice Mayo read an original poem as a tr ibute to the senior girls. The meeting was followed by ref reshments pro-vided by the sophs.

Blue Key Society To Construct Plaza As Annual Project

The Annual Blue Key Project

for this year is the construction

of a plaza f lag stone adjacent to

the southeast corner of Durfee Hall. According to plans the proj-ect will be completed by next fall

Retaining walls of brick resem-bling tha t on the bottom of the women's dorm will be constructec at the base of the hill and wil surround the plaza; shrubbery wil separate the upper plaza to the women's dorm and the lower plaza There will also be limestone seats a walk f rom the plaza to the stree between the Science Building am the Women's Dorm, and steps from the plaza going to Van Vleck There will be a plaque on the re-taining wall or on the floor pre-sented by the Blue Key members of 1950.

The two plazas are expected to be more or less student gather ing places. The architect who drew the plans is Ralph R. Calder of De troit , who also drew the plans for the Women's dorm. The cost o this project is estimated about $1, 200 or $1,500, and the funds are the results of various Blue Key Projects this year.

At the last Blue Key meeting elections, fo r next year 's officers took place. This year 's president Merrill Noordhoff, will be replace( by Harold Dean and the secretary for this year, Floyd Goulooze, wil be replaced by Don Fairchild. Over the summer months the new mem bers will be working on the stu dent guide for next year as well as the football programs. blies are being planned.

The Tulip Time literary meeting was opened with d e v o t i o n s by Chuck Dykstra. Joe Gross provided the music for the evening, and Charlie Gifford read the weekly letter to "Butch." An interesting talk was given by Larry Fabumni about Africa. Howie — "humor a t its best" — Van Dahm concluded the meeting on a gay note.

The f ra te rn i ty has given i ts hearty consent to continue as the foster parents of "Butch", its "son" overseas in Greece. This is a trib-ute to those who served in World War II.

The softball team under the guidance of J im Brown and Wayne Fieldhouse h a v e concluded this season's schedule. The boys did a fine job and finished with a splen-did record.

With the prospect of re turning to f r a t houses next year, the Knicks were happy to obtain Mrs. Kronemeyer as their house-mother. Mrs. " K " previously was the f r a -ternity 's mother, so the f r a t e rn i ty is looking forward to her re turn.

Last Friday 's meeting was in charge of the graduat ing Seniors as a farewell to the fellowship of Knickerbocker. This also marked the last t ime fo r this semester 's officers: Jack Ryskamp, president; Martin Mepyans, vice-president; Gary Moore, t reasurer ; Charles Link, secretary; Wayne Fieldhouse, master-at-arms, and Paul Kroman, keeper of the archives.

At a recent business meeting, the following officers were elected for the fall t e rm next semester : Ken Smouse, president; Don Fai r -child, v i c e p r e s i d e n t ; Howard Newton, secretary; Dave Hanson, t reasurer ; Wes Sikkema, keeper of the Archives; Ken Glupker, mas-ter-at-arms. Wayne Fieldhouse was elected to fill the position of house president, and Ken Brinza was ap-pointed as publicity director. Ar-rangements were also made for the annual (becoming so) s t ag pa r ty a f t e r exams.

And so another year has passed in the history of Kappa E t a Nu. It is a "good bye" and a "good luck" to those many seniors fo r a job well-done, and also much suc-cess is extended to the newly-elected officers and to the f r a -ternity fo r a very promising fu tu re .

EMERSONIAN Beginning with the fa l l term,

the following men will serve the Emersonian Fra te rn i ty in official capacities:

President — Jack De Wolf. Vice-President — Dick Stewart . Secretary — Guy Vander Jag t . Treasurer — Bob Peverly. According to the editorial col-

u m n , a v a l u a b l e s o u r c e of information, this academic year is almost past. If such is indeed the case, as may very well be, it might be of interest to know what various Emmies are doing this summer, if a n y t h i n g . Retiring President Craig Van Zanten, to whom congratulations are due on his approaching splicing, intends to support the better half by work-ing in a marble o r c h a r d . An upl if t ing occupation. When the question ("What are you doing. . . etc.") was put to Hap Bos, Sr. (member of Senior Class, that is), he said "Whee."

Dick Stewart , J r . , plans to be either a crepe hanger in a sun-bonnet factory or a cowboy in a lawn-mower mill. Dr. James Nord-hoff, Soph., w h o s e offices a r e located on 10th St. near Columbia and whose observation room faces — well, he has evinced a sincere desire to be a coin flipper at the weather bureau or a sock tucker in a Turkish bath.

We next asked shy, reserved Harold Van Zoeren, Fr., how he intends to occupy himself this summer, and he replied profoundly, "Aah, yer gra ' mudder's waxen murstache." This is very shrewd. Jack DeWaard's, Fr. , plans are also very interesting. "Jack, have your intentions fo r the post-vernal recess been d u l y fo rmula ted?" "Yes, (Deleted), they are complete and definite. I plan to — ah — that is, I would like to—if I could — but I shouldn't — on the other hand — and so I think — and fur ther -m o r e — " "Well, thank you. Jack." "Thank you, (Deleted)."

See you next year at the Emmie House.

Hope Women Netters Take Second Place

Hope took a second place in the W. M. I. A. A. tennis tournament held a t Albion May 17, 18 and 19. Kalamazoo women's net team took first place honors, winning both the singles and doubles championships. Although Kalamazoo won by a large margin of points, the i r vic-tory was hard- fought , as the Hope-ites lost their games by very nar? row margins .

In the doubles tournament Voor-horst and Veldman were defeated in the quar ter - f ina ls by the Adrian number 1 team, and Mary Jane Borr and Sally Palen were also de-fea ted in the quarter-f inals , the i r de fea t being administered a t the hands of Kazoo's number 1 team.

Edi th Gnade reached the singles semi-finals where she was defeated by Kalamazoo's number one player. Joyce Post and Marga re t Moerdyke also played in the singles semi-finals.

The Hope co-eds defeated Cal-vin's women tennis team twice this spr ing. On April 28 the Hope women won 7 to 1, and they re-peated May 9 when they scored a 6 to 3 victory.

The spr ing spo r t s season has come to a close; the MIAA team t ro-phies have been d is t r ibuted; the t rophy case in Graves Library remains unchanged. Once more Hope's athlet ic t eams have fai led to win a first place position in conference play. The br ightes t Dutch prospects for the year seemed to be the football , basketball , and golf squads, but each ended up second in competion. '

The s t rong, ve te ran , football team was defeated but once throughout the season, but t he 13-9 Hillsdale loss cost the gr idders the crown. The cross country squad got off to a good s t a r t last fal l but they were headed by Albion and Kalamazoo and finished third.

In basketball a s t rong Hope squad was edged by Kazoo fo r the top spot. Once more ju s t a few points sepera ted Hope f rom a clean con-ference slate.

Hope's tennis team was another second place squad. The netmen displayed al l -around power in de fea t ing all MIAA opponents except Kazoo. The f u t u r e looks br ight for tennis in 1951.

The 1950 t rack squad showed definite improvement over the 1949 cellar dwellers. Track prospects seem to be improving fo r the Dutch.

Jack Schouten 's Baseball team was a bit disappoint ing. The team received good pi tching and at t imes fine bat t ing , but e r rors cost Hope many impor tan t victories. With pi tcher Paul Buckhout and a little glue on their gloves, the baseball nine could win many games next year.

Albion won the All-Sports Trophy as predicted. The Britons put together firsts in t rack, baseball, and golf , with a third in tennis to cop 36 points f o r a total of 50 tallies. Kazoo finished second with 45 points. The Hornets won ten points in tennis, e ight in t rack , six in golf , and one in baseball. Hope finished third with 39 markers . The

baseball and golf squads failed to come through as predicted. The Dutch garnered e ight points in tennis, six in golf, two in t rack, and one in baseball.

Graduat ion this spr ing will rob Hope of many of its outs tanding a thle tes . The 1950 graduat ion will be exceptionally hard on the football and basketball t eams .

•Nine seniors, all regular per formers , will be lost in football . Six of the seven "Cab ine tmaker s" in the Dutch forward wall will graduate . It will be a real task fo r Coach A1 Vanderbush to fill the shoes of Gord T immerman , Clair De Mull, Abe Moerland, Bill Holwerda, Gord Van Hoeven, and Rip Collins. Also missing will be the most valuable player in the MIAA, Nick Yonker, bri l l iant quar terback, and halfbacks Jim Pfingstel and Bob Koop.

Coach Russ De Vet te ' s basketball losses will be jus t as g rea t . Gone will be Yonker, all MIAA guard ; Holwerda, a member of the s ta r t ing five fo r th ree yea r s ; Paul Muyskens, voted Hope's most valuable player; and Jack Marema, a scrappy forward who saw plenty of action.

The golf team will miss four ve te rans when the season rolls around again next spr ing. Gone will be Howie Ja lv ing, who has played in the number one position fo r f o u r years a t Hope. Ja lv ing has been MIAA medalist twice, in 1947 and again this year . Also gone will be veterans Heinie Visser, Paul Mulder, and Bob Houtman.

Bob Becksfor t and Gerry Gnade will be missing f rom the tennis r anks next year. Becksfort is a f o u r year veteran who has always been a s te l lar p e r f o r m e r f o r Hope. Gnade, winner of the fall tennis tournament , will also be a hard man to replace.

Seniors on th i s year ' s fifth place t rack team are Neil Droppers, shot put and discus; Ern ie Ross and J im Lamb, pole vaul t ; Alex Ebneth and Chuck Link, javel in ; Ken Decker, low hurdles ; and Pete Kraak, 440 yard dash.

J ack Schouten will lose five men f r o m his cellar dwell ing nine. The pitching of Bill Ver Hey will be sorely missed, as will the ta lents of Jack Marema, first baseman, Gord Van Hoeven and Gord Brummels, second basemen; and J e r r y Mull, th i rd baseman. There were no seniors on this year ' s cross country team.

Right now we're not making any predictions about next year ' s ath-letic teams, but even though these key men will be gone, Hope's pros-pects could be br igh t .
