79th ANNIVERSARY —2 Hope College, Holland. Michigan September 23. 1966

Whets Pull Spirit

Court Condemns Frosh Trad i t ion was the key word

on the Hope c a m p u s this week as the c u s t o m a r y r iva l ry between the f r e s h m a n and s o p h o m o r e classes reached a fever pitch. Kan-g a r o o Court on Wednesday, the inception of pull practice t h e s a m e d a y . and the week-long water fights p rov ided t rad i t iona l fuel for the fires of the feud.

The c r imina l s t ra ins in the ( lass of 197U were vividly b rought to

light by the K a n g a r o o Court , which convened in the Pine d r o v e court r o o m on Wednesday after-noon. Justice .1. Neuter ( a l so known as .loel M o n s m a ) was pre-siding, assisted by a dis t inguished jury and a n u m b e r of well-trained bailiffs.

I he offenses were of m a n y dif-ferent types, r a n g i n g f rom hav ing an upperc lass sister to put t ing powder in u p p e r c l a s s m e n ' s s h o e s .

ORDER IN THE COURT—Two defiant freshmen criminals stand be-fore the bench of Kangaroo Court, Justice J. "Neuter" Monsma pre-

siding. They, along with their classmates, were tried and convicted

of being lowly freshmen during the court session Wednesday afternoon.

There were a l so a host of defen-dan ts who were tried and convic-ted of in s u b o r d i n a t i o n to sen-iors ( s o p h o m o r e s , of course) .

The pun i shmen t s meted out were as var ied as the charges . One f rosh was sentenced to wear wood-en shoes to chapel for a week. ()th-ers had to s ing songs such as"W"e are C r a z y , " descr ibing the Class of 1970. These b rought special delight to the crowd. Another luck-less f r e s h m a n had to run back-w a r d s to his place, pot t ing as he went, and yet ano ther was d o o m e d to an add i t iona l week of wear ing a beanie. H e f o r e c o u r t a d j o u r n e d , all f rosh were b rough t before the bench and o rde red to sing the Al-m a Mater .

As water ba l loons flew in all di-rections, the men of the f r e s h m a n and s o p h o m o r e classes retired to their respective pull practices. This yea r the general c h a i r m a n of the pull is Car l Walters, who is as-sisted by Kandy Miller. The soph-o m o r e pull coaches are seniors Kon Kronemeye r , Kick Kair and Brad Klow. The frosh are coach-ed by jun io r s John Tysse, Dennis

Karmer and Chris P lasman. On the first d a y of practice 3 5

sophs came out for the pull. Most of last yea r ' s team is back but the pos i t ions haven ' t yet been assign-ed. In a grea t show of en thus iasm 81 f reshmen, a lmost one-third of the males in the class, tried out for the team.

Gives anchor

Highest Rank The Mope College anchor has re-

ceived a first c lass honor r a t i ng for the first semester of last y e a r and an All-American ra t ing for the second semester f rom the Asso-ciated Collegiate Press.

The Ail-American ra t ing is the highest a college pape r can a-chieve in the ACP ra t ing service, and first c lass is the second high-est. The All-American ra t ing is the first which the anchor h a s had since it first b e g a n submi t t ing the issues for j udg ing in 1959.

Last yea r ' s pape r , edited by John Mulder, was described by the ACP judge as " a n educat ion to r e a d , " and he added , "a l toge ther an ex-cellent job. Your paper is distinc-t ive." The a n c h o r received super ior ra t ings the second semester in the a r e a s of news, creat iveness and edi tor ia ls . In nearly all other a reas it received "excel lent" rat-ings.

The anchor's first semester rat-ing was also highest in the a reas of creat iveness, editorials and fea-tures, and the judge commented , " A n alert staff - a m o n g the best I've seen ."

The /.eel and Kecord, which prints the Hope College e ight -page weekly, came in for p ra i se as well. Judges awarded "excel lent" rat-ings to the a n c h o r both semesters for its t y p o g r a p h y and pr in t ing.

Anchor p h o t o g r a p h y scored high both semesters a n d was hand led by s o p h o m o r e Dick Ang-stadt , who a l so served second se-mester as l ayou t editor. During the second semester he w a s assis-ted in the p h o t o g r a p h y depar t -ment by Corl iss Xelson. Spor t s a lso received special recogni t ion and was hand led by senior Jim Mace lirst semester and senior C.lenn ( iouwens second semester . A regu la r feature which improved the anchor ' s ra t ing w a s Kob Werge's weekly co lumn, " T h e C h a n g e l i n g . " Mulder, a senior this y e a r and

anchor editor for a second year , expressed his pleasure u p o n re-ceiving the news but added that it raised the s t a n d a r d s for the pape r still higher. He attributed par t of the anchor ' s higher r a t ing to the critical service which Clifford Beu-tell, member of the staff of the Wall Street J o u r n a l , p e r f o r m e d th roughou t the year. Mr. Heutell read each week's issue, corrected mis takes , and sent back the m a r k e d up copies with sug-gest ions for i m p r o v i n g the pape r .

Fund Raising Motive for Increase?

Academic Standards Hicjh Despite Growth By George A r w a d y

Has the r ap id e x p a n s i o n ol Hope College c o m p r o m i s e d the academic s t a n d a r d s of Hope Col-lege? In this y e a r ' s push to an all-time high enrol lment of 1837, has qual i ty been sacrificed for quan t i t y?

A statistical ana lys i s of the last five f r e s h m a n classes shows that the answer is no. " T h e class of 1970 is an academic equa l to the class of 1969 , " acco rd ing to Di-rector of Admiss ions Koger Kiet-berg.

The combined mean on the ver-bal S.A.T. score was 514 for this y e a r ' s f reshmen and 5 1 0 for the present s o p h o m o r e s . The ma th a v e r a g e s were 541 and 5 4 6 re-spectfully. Over 96 per cent of both classes c a m e f rom the upper three-fifths of their high school g r a d u a t i n g class. The enrol lment increases experienced both this fall and last September a re virtu-ally eqjial .

DESPITE ACADEMIC C A L I -BER r e m a i n i n g high a m o n g the new students , the genera l state of u n p r e p a r e d n e s s in all new hous-ing, the rental of the fifth floow of the Hotel Warm Friend, a n d the utilization of the health clinic as a w o m e n ' s cot tage all point to inad-equate hous ing p r e p a r a t i o n s for the new a r r iva l s . Mr. Rietlber^, when asked why so m a n y stu-dents had been enrolled if the col-lege was u n p r e p a r e d to accomo-

date them, commented that "it would be very difficult to b lame a n y o n e for the s i tua t ion . "

He pointed to the Adminis t ra-tive c h a n g e o v e r d u r i n g the sum-mer m o n t h s as one reason for the difficulties this September. "Much of the p rob lem resulted f rom a greater percen tage of upperclass-men re tu rn ing than had been ex-pected," he said. Another signifi-cant factor was the increase of t ransfers into Hope f rom other schools, r is ing this yea r f rom 4 1 to 67, acco rd ing to the Director of Admiss ions .

MR. RIETBERG pointed out that a l t hough the hous ing situa-tion a p p e a r s bad at Hope, it is ev-en worse at other schools . He said that because of fai lures to complete const ruct ion of new dormi tor ies ,

s tudents at Calvin College were l iving four to a r o o m and Albion College had been forced to post-pone the open ing of classes for two weeks."

Due to the l a rge enrol lment and the s h o r t c o m i n g s of college hous-ing, specula t ion still circulates a-m o n g the student b o d y that a pol-icy is in effect to e x p a n d the stu-dent b o d y beyond the college's hous ing capac i ty in o r d e r to dem-ons t ra te a grea t need in that a rea . This would great ly enhanct Hope ' s chances of receiving fi-nancia l aid f r o m both public and pr iva te sources to build a new dormi to ry . Mr. Kietberg admh-

w

ted that it is " m u c h easier for a school such as Hope to receive aid after it has demons t r a t ed consider-able need."

ANALYSIS of the admiss ions da ta demons t r a t ed several t rends evident over the five year span . The n u m b e r of appl ica t ions has increased every year , a l lowing the admis s ions office to become more and m o r e selective. At one time Hope accepted vi r tual ly all the students who appl ied. The past several years has seen this change to the extent that now 23 per cent of all app l ica t ions a r e rejected.

With this increased discr imina-tion, the qual i ty of student at Hope has risen with the enrol lment . In 1963 only 18 of the f reshmen scor-ed over 7 0 0 on the two S.A.T. 's as c o m p a r e d to 43 only two years later. S imi lar improvemen t s have occurred in overa l l scores and in high school s t and ings .

TODAY, A M U C H LARGER propor t ion of the Hope student body comes f rom outs ide Michi-g a n and for the first time less than half a f r e s h m a n c lass belongs to the Keformed Church in America.

Mr. Kietberg said that " n o ad-mission policies have yet been es-tablished for the c o m i n g y e a r . " He expressed fears that the d ra f t s i tuat ion would become muce crit-ical -for Hope m a l e s ' i n the lower halt ol their class, m a k i n g it diffi-cult to assess how m a n y openings for new men will be avai lab le .

T h e edi tor m a d e no a t tempt to de-t e rmine ac tual cost of a d m i n i s t r a -t ion a n d its increases . There w a s n o detailed list of col lege expenses v e r s u s college f inanc ia l assets.

Village Chief

Le Loi, Sou th V i e t n a m

Dear Mr. Ch ie f : /

You have p robab ly hea rd of us, or if not

of us, at least of H o p e College. Last year the

s tudents of this College decided tha t because

of the war in your coun t ry and because there

were many needy people , they wou ld organize

a campa ign to raise money for your village.

T ^ ^ o w the war isn't too p o p u l a r wi th some

people here in the States, b u t hardly

anyone wi th the slightest bi t of h u m a u -

i tar ianism in his veins can resist an appea l to

he lp the vict ims of a war. As a result , even

though we are all college s tuden t s and al-

though some of us d o n ' t like what ' s going on

in Vie tnam, we ral l ied beh ind the b a n n e r of

this noble cause. O u r motives were good too.

Since we are a Chr i s t i an college, many of us

felt that ou t of a Chr i s t i an concern for you

people in Sou th Vie tnam, we ough t to he lp

heal the w o u n d s of war r a the r than con t i nue

to scar the count rys ide and the people .

T h e resul t was amaz ing . W e worked hard

and success came to us quickly . First the stu-

dents who organized the campa ign decided to

b roaden the scope of the endeavor and at-

t empt to solicit the s u p p o r t of the people in

the town of H o l l a n d , Mich. , where H o p e

College is. T h e idea caugh t on a n d soon Sun-

day School g r o u p s were cook ing d inne r s and

d o n a t i n g the proceeds to the c a m p a i g n for

your village.

S tuden t s were sent on a canvass of each

house in the town and came back wi th 53,200.

T h e largest single c o n t r i b u t i o n hi t $200. T h e n

s tudents were sent to visit all the stores and

businesses in the area and tha t b rough t in

even more money . Of course, the s tuden t s

GUANO, MICHMAN

themselves were asked to c o n t r i b u t e and over

SI,300 was collected f rom them. Al together ,

Mr . Chief , they raised over $6,000 tor the vil-

lage of Le Loi, South V i e t n a m .

That was in Feb rua ry and d u r i n g the rest

of the school year the s t u d e n t s tr ied to

plan a way of ge t t ing all tha t money

to you. In the m e a n t i m e , we hea rd more a b o u t

your little vil lage—about its 2,500 re lugee in-

hab i tan t s , who fled f rom the Viet C o n g in

March 1965, a b o u t your need for a new school

instead of the three worn-down, b a m b o o

thached classrooms tha t you have now, and

a b o u t your need for good medica l facilities.

In fact, two s tuden t s f rom a n o t h e r college near

H o p e visited Le Loi and said it was in greater

need than any o the r village they had seen in

South Vie tnam.

However , Mr . Chief , the s tuden t s still

have the money . W e wish to apologize for

them, but for some reason $6,000 which you

u n d o u b t e d l y need is rest ing securely in one ol

the H o l l a n d banks . W e feel very badly a b o u t

that , but as the leader of a village, we are sure

you know tha t somet imes th ings get messed

u p a little. We ' r e a f r a id that ' s wha t h a p p e n e d

here. T h e s tuden t s wanted to m a k e sure tha t

the Viet Cong d i d n ' t steal the mate r ia l s or get

the inonev, but anyway, the money ' s still here

and we're sorry. W e heard tha t it's coming

soon, so pe rhaps pa t ience will pay off.

ut we're looking a r o u n d and trying to

find a way to get e i ther the money or

supplies to you so that you can start im-

proving Le Loi. Mr . Chief , we ' re sure tha t

all the s tudents are very sorry tha t is has taken

so long, and we hope you u n d e r s t a n d .

Sincerely yours,

T h e H o p e Col lege anchor

A T R A D I T I O N IS D E A D at H o p e

College. An we, for one, are sorry to

see it go. For many years, more than

anyone walk ing a r o u n d here cares to figure

out , the f r e s h m a n class was r e q u i r e d to

wear their green beanies for one week. T h i s

year af ter a b o u t one day we looked a r o u n d

trying to see a green beanie. But there

was none .

And then there 's K a n g a r o o Cour t . W e

can r e m e m b e r when tha t event was a t tend-

ed by everyone able to walk to the P ine

Grove. T h e walk was wor th it too because

the frosh were p u t on trial for crimes

against h u m a n i t y and especially for being

frosh. T h e j u d g m e n t was always sagacious

and the p u n i s h m e n t s ingular ly equ i t ab le .

T h i s year we s topped to mai l a letter and

missed the whole C o u r t . Actual ly we were

happy to find out when it was go ing to be

held. T e l e p h o n e calls to all the people tha t

should know b r o u g h t only confused "I

don ' t know's ."

IN F A C T , last week's o r i en t a t i on pro-

gram was character ized m o r e by its con-

fus ion than by the comfor t tha t it was

supposed to b r i n g to f rosh in a new world .

All tha t the week could elicit ou t of most

frosh was a wide, bo red yawn.

Pe rhaps the only th ing tha t ' s the same

this year is tha t there are more water fights.

We are sorry about all this. There was

a time when the frosh wore their green

beanies and when upperclassmen made

them wear them. T h e beanies meant some-

thing then, good frosh. But they meant

someth ing because we usual ly got (lasses

with an in tang ib le abstract qua l i t y called

spi i i t . Strange though it may seem to you,

spir i t is not someth ing measu red in the

n u m b e r of gal lons of water t h r o w n or in

the n u m b e r of lawns ru ined .

Frosh used to use their bean ies to show

tha t th ing called spir i t to the rest of the

school. It was a symbol of de f i ance , a trade-

mark which m a d e f r e shman d i f fe ren t and

u n i q u e and special. Of course, the upper-

classmen en joyed the r ight of h u m i l i a t i o n ,

d e m a n d i n g tha t beamed frosh exercise

their spines in well executed pots. And it

was all a par t of m a k i n g a n o t h e r f r e shman

d a s s welcome at H o p e .

ON C E T H E R E W E R E days when or-

ien ta t ion was r u n by people w h o

wanted to make the new frosh par t

of the college. T h i n g s were organized so

tha t that first week at college was someth ing

special, some th ing tha t the f rosh could re-

member . T h e y could look back and say

t h a t for one brief sh in ing m o m e n t their

class was the center of everyone 's a t t en t ion ,

and that 's the way it was supposed to be.

T h i s fall a n o t h e r g r o u p of frosh arriv-

ed, b u t they were d i f fe ren t because they

d i d n ' t want to be d i f fe ren t . T h e y wan ted

to look like upperc lassmen, fit r igh t in with

n o par t icu la r f an fa re , and t he upperclass-

m e n let t hem. T h i s year t he frosh just

a r en ' t f rosh.

A tradition is dead at H o p e College.

That's hard for us tp swallow, especially

during a Centennial celebration when tra-

ditions are honored.

'Woolf:' Love in Grotesque Proportions

INFURIATED HUSBAND—Richard Burton savagely lunges for and

tries to throttle Elizabeth Taylor in this scene from "Who's Afraid of

Virginia Woolf," which opened last night in the Holland Theater.

Editor's note: The fo l lowing re-view is written by senior Alan Jones. "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" is be ing shown at the Hol-land Theater this weekend and will end next Thursday .

By Alan Jones

When K d w a r d Albee 's first full length p l a y " W h o ' s A f r a i d of Vir-g in ia Wool f " opened on Broad-w a y in the winter of 1963, it caus-ed r e v e r b e r a t i o n s of crit ical opin-ion which echoed in all c o r n e r s of the show-bus ines s wor ld .

Much of the r e a s o n for this dis-t u r b a n c e w a s the p l a y w r i g h t ' s fla-g r a n t l y u n o r t h o d o x use of style a n d l a n g u a g e . Hut the mos t un-n e r v i n g aspect of the d r a m a w a s its plot t h r o u g h which the more s , va lues a n d style of life of the Amer-ican midd le c lass were mercilessly cas t iga ted . Despite the w a v e of hosti le cr i t ic ism directed t oward bo th p lay a n d p l a y w r i g h t it h a s gene ra l ly been recognized that " V i r g i n i a W o o l f is a t o u r de force of the s t age a n d a master -piece in l i te ra ture .

T h o u g h the m o v i e ve r s ion of the Albee p l a y inev i t ab ly lacks the i m m e d i a c y of impac t a n d the co lor fu l v ivac i t y tha t a live pro-duc t ion a f f o r d s , it is nevertheless an a r t fu l ly h a n d l e d in te rp re ta t ion of a d e m a n d i n g script a n d shou ld p lace first in the r u n n i n g for this y e a r ' s " B e s t P ic ture" a w a r d s .

It wou ld be d i s a s t e r o u s to at-tempt a b low-by-b low accoun t of the fi lms events . A g o o d deal of

the in t r igue of the plot is due to the t o r t u r o u s u n f o l d i n g of its biz-z a r r e con ten ts a n d , hence, the mail*! po in t of the fi lm. In fact , one c u r i o u s aspect of the m o v i e is tha t the full s ign i f i cance of wha t a c t u a l l y o c c u r r e d d u r i n g the three Viours v iewing t ime does not be-c o m e comple te ly c lear until l ong af ter the viewer h a s left the thea-ter.

Freedom: A Punch in the Nose?

EdHor's note: This column is the first of a weekly series in which members of (he Hope College fa-culty will address the campus. This first column is written by Dr. William S. Mathis, Hope's new Dean of Academic Affairs. Dr. Mathis came to Hope from Har-din-Simmons University in Abi-lene, Texas, where he was dean of faculties. He has received his academic training from Stetson University, (he University of Michigan and Florida S(a(e UniversKy where he earned his dodor's degree in music.

By Dr. William S. Mathis

My favori te dispenser of a p p a r -ently u n c o m m o n sense, Ann Lan-ders, describes the limits of free-corn as the point at which your fist connects with my nose.

1 a s sume that a person of Miss Landers ' intelligence realizes that this generalization fails to take into account such an impor tan t considerat ion as why the nose and the fist are at tempting to locate in the same space at the same time. Kven so, this graphic-description a p p e a r s to have little to do with the search for f reedom.

DR. WILLIAM S. MATHIS

unless we can agree that citing one circumstance in which free-d o m is not means that It is every-where else. That is unlikely.

MISS LANDER'S D E S C R I P -TION is not atypical . It is ironic that a va lue as prized as is "free-d o m " in our time should be gen-erally described in terms of its lim-itations but unlimitedly valued if unlimited. It a p p e a r s that we have erected a d ichotomy that " f r e e d o m " is cither unres t ra ined activity or activity with s o m e ar-bitrari ly imposed restraints. To describe t r eedom" from either viewpoint seems ra ther like des-cribing " l i fe" as beginning with birth and ending with death.

IF WE C O N F I N E the use of " f r e e d o m " to its unmodif ied form, we may assume that we want the freedom to use the term "free-d o m to mean any th ing we or any-one else wants it to mean. But we use " f r e e d o m " in its unmodif ied , " p u r e fo rm as a positively val-ued term. We march for f reedom,

The limitations m a y be true, but somehow they say little about the distance in between.

We use f r eedom" as t hough we had some c o m m o n unde r s t and ing as to its meaning. Not only do we use it - the p o p u l a r press uses it; the unpopu la r press uses it; the Freedom Marchers use it; and " those people" t ry ing to halt the Freedom Marchers are exercising their " f r eedom" ; and on a n d on. we fight to preserve freedom, we even die for the cause of f reedom. And this is " f r e e d o m " as an un-qualified term.

Hut, alas! W e not only use "free-d o m " in its " p u r e " form, we also use it with qua l i fy ing adjectives. There is " respons ib le f r eedom," which must mean that there is " i r responsib le f r eedom." Tha t would m a k e it a p p e a r that "free-dom is in a neutral posi t ion flanked by " i r responsible free-d o m " as the negative pole and "responsible f r eedom" as the pos-

itive pole. Maybe this would s a y that " f r e e d o m , " per se is non-val-uable until its act ivation is deter-mined to be " r e spons ib l e " or "ir-responsible" By w h o m ? By a "higher a u t h o r i t y " ? But that constitutes res traint , and restraint is what 1 march , fight, or die to de-feat. By me? Then, though I do not have \he f reedom to use "free-d o m " as I want to, I do have the freedom to determine what is "re-sponsible f r e e d o m " and what is " i r respons ib le f r eedom." And if anyone can decide for himself what is " r e spons ib l e " and what is " i r r e spons ib le , " then I am only kidding myself if I think this elim-inates the problem of " f r e e d o m ' s " mean ing any th ing a n y o n e wants it to mean.

MAYBE WE ARE BACK where we started. Pe rhaps I am con-fused. But my confus ion becomes c o m p o u n d e d when I mention "li-cense" . . .Aye, there 's a dir ty word! "L icense , " in the nega-tively-valued context of "free-d o m , " means "excessive or undue f reedom." And there is "bon -d a g e , " or " n o n - f r e e d o m , " which means excessive or undue res t ra int ."

Now we have neut ra l ly-valued " f r e e d o m " in the center with nega-tives and positives on either side: non-freedom-freedom-license. But is "l icense" a positive va lue? May-be, then, we have positively-valued " f r e e d o m " located on a scale r u n n i n g f rom negat ive to positive: l icense-irresponsible freedom -f reedom-responsib le free-dom. And where do we place " n o n - f r e e d o m , " " b o n d a g e " ?

If " n o n - f r e e d o m " ( b o n d a g e ) is "excessive a n d undue res t ra in t , " then " f r e e d o m " as a positively-valued term, would have to be "with non-excessive, due re-s t ra in t ."

IF "FREEDOM" IS " n o n ex-cessive and due res t ra in t , " what would " i r r e spons ib le f r e e d o m " be? Something, m a y b e , like "ex-cessively, undue , nonexcessive, due r e s t r a in t "?

I suppose we are back to y o u r fist and my nose. And this, it appears , is the one place at which there isn't a n y f reedom to begin with. The answer we have is at the point at which we have no question!

In my limited experience at Hope, I have come to realize that the pursui t of f reedom is common to this college com-munity. I wonder if in this aca-demic communi ty we really want the f reedom to have " f r e e d o m " mean a n y t h i n g we want it to? 1 wonder if we aj-e a s s u m i n g that " f r e e d o m " is the right of each in-dividual to do whatever he things " f r e e d o m " to be?

Freedom? I cherish it. 1 want to achieve it. I want to defend and to s h a r e it. More than any-thing, I want to know what it is!

Alpha Scholars Luncheon Held

Following Fall Convocation A luncheon for s o p h o m o r e s a n d

freshmen was held on Sept. 15 after the Hope College l()5th Fall Convocat ion . The students, hol-cte rs ol the Alpha Scho la r sh ip which was founded last year , a re all f reshmen with high records of academic achievement, intellectu-al interests and p romis ing leader-ship abilities.

Dr. John l lo l lenbach, head of the Alpha Scholarsh ip p r o g r a m , remarked concern ing the a ims and pu rpose of such an o rgan i -zation. that "we feel one way of learning how to accept one 's role as a potential leader is to come in contact with people who a re na tura l scho la r s with interesting personal i t ies ."

Dr. l lo l lenbach went on to say that the open ing meeting held last T h u r s d a y at which Dr. I. J o h n

Hesselink, p rofessor of history of doctrine and ecclesiastical Latin at Tokyo Theological Seminary ,

spoke, was just one of the m a n y p lanned meetings at which these Alpha Scholars will have the op-portuni ty to get better acqua in ted with one another .

Alpha Scholars receive scholar-ships accord ing to need. Selected students are asked to be involved in hono r work du r ing yea r s at Hope, an indiv idual study pro-ject as an upper c l assman , and par t ic ipat ion in discussion which will be held time to time with visiting scholars , c a m p u s leaders and faculty.

Besides these requirements , the students must ma in ta in a B plus average .

Fach f r e shman class will have a min imum of 12 Alpha Scholars .

The Fifth Column

Summertime By Gordy Korstange

K There is a l a rge segment of

the Hope College popu la t ion which has never spent the s u m m e r in Hol land, Mich.

It is unfor tuna te that s tudents (who m o a n and wail about the weather in Michigan for nine months of the y e a r ) leave that area just as the climate is improv-ing. If you wonder what h a p p e n s to Hope du r ing the summer ( The rumor about the ear th open ing up and swal lowing Hope is de-finitely false), let me attempt to recapture a few of those golden days .

First of all, there is the silence which settles over Holland. It's the silence of all small towns which becomes more appa ren t in w a r m weather when one 's na tura l incli-nation is to reflect on a s u m m e r night. Nights on the porch con-templat ing a street light which shines on a deserted road . Rid-ing a bicycle to Mill's about six o'clock at night, then th rough a c ampus now silent.

Stopping in front of Craves , one assumes the usual posi t ion on the steps where the c rowds once passed on pa rade . But not a soul is there; the entire Pine d r o v e area is like a beautiful ly preserved ghost town. Oh where are you, sons and daugh te r s of Hope?

Of course there is the beach, sweaty-hot on the sand , s tar t ingly cold in the water. What roman t i c

soul could resist a midnight beach under the full m o o n ? And a g a i n the silence, only faintly b roken by the water ' s lap, the channel fog-horn or chi ldren 's shouts . One thousand freckles don ' t quite merge into a deep tan as the sum-mer school advert isement said they would, but without a tan how could one show he was a member of the leisure class?

And so the d a y s went sl iding by under the sun (You m a y have noticed that c louds have covered it f rom the first day of school) . There were more than beautiful days though. Flla Fi tzgerald was here, and so were Jim Kweskin 's Jug Band, The Baroque Trio, folksinger Kay Britten, the Four Freshmen, and others. They were part of the p r o g r a m sponsored by Hope in o rder to add sound to the summer silence.

What happened? Picture the Civic Center with its 1500 seats.

Seven hundred fifty people turned out to hear Flla. The J u g Band drew less than 100 (the first six rows of chai rs on the ma in floor had occupants) . Kay Britten wel-comed about twelve pews of lis-teners. So it went t h roughou t the schedule, and a conserva t ive es-timate of the loss of m o n e y is about $10 ,000.

Thus , those students who missed summer school a lso missed some good concerts, which shou ld have been saved until Hope 's regular : session. Instead of Klla Fitz-gerald, we now have The New Society. Then there is the money lost last s u m m e r (when there were 300 s tudents) c o m p a r e d to what could have been ea rned this winter (with 1800 students) .

But the summer is gone, and you out there can only sit in the barracks dreaming about next June. Let us hqpe the days will be as perfect as they have been the last three months. Let us also hope that the Administration has learned something about summer-that its silence is very hard to in-terrupt in Holland, Mich.

Unique Strategies Mark New Intramural Season

Fal l "In America is not the seas-on of once-green leaves, nor is it the time of the year when the a i r ' s chill blushes the co-ed. it is, how-ever, the time when men shed their f acade of gentility to fill T h o m a s Hobbes ' definition of the na ture of man . In short , it is football season at Hope College.

Hope 's vars i ty has a l r eady be-gun its grueling gr id i ron schedule but for the men of the fraterni ty houses and the men of Kollen Hall 's womb, practice for the in-t r a m u r a l teams has just begun. A b reakdown of the fraterni ty

league shows us that there will be a five-way tie for first place. Fach frat p roud ly boas t s of its first-place calibre. Consequent-ly, victors will be b o a s t i n g of su-perior game ph i losophy , rather than of overpower ing b rawn .

The Knickerbockers should give their foe a very b ru sque and direct g a m e of football. F a n s can label the Fra te rs as foxes; both sly and

fast. The Arkies, with m a n y re-tu rn ing veterans, will p r o b a b l y d isp lay a g a m e of sage wisdom. Overwhelming thinking should prayer fu l ly give first place to the Fmerson ians , and finally, the Cosmos will present a combina-tion of skill and determinat ion to their opponents . The Fraterni ty League this yea r will be an ex-panded league. However, the new frat , 1'hi Delta ("hi, is not repre-sented this year .

The Kollen Hall i n t r amura l lea-gue is comprised of the six wing teams, Crispell and Mandeville cottages, Zwemer Hall, and of the residents of the fifth floor of the Hotel Warm Friend. Also slated for this fall 's intra-

mura l p r o g r a m , according to Glenn Van Wieren, the in t r amura l coord ina to r , a re golf and tennis p r o g r a m s . A 36-hole tourney and an 18-hole round are slated for the fraterni ty and the Kollen Hall leagues respectively.

COACH RUSS DE VETTE

Impressive Record Follows

De Vette Into Tenth Season By Glenn Gouwens

The year was 1965, and the place was the Hol land Civic Cen-ter. The whistle had just blown and Hope had defeated Calvin College for the MIAA basketball championsh ip in an exciting dou-ble overtime.

A figure rushed over to the Hope bench and extended a hand of congra tu la t ions . The congra tu-lat ions went to coach Russell De-Vette for coaching the seventh Hope championsh ip in his nine years as basketbal l coach.

Mr. De Vette's record, as both a basketbal l p layer and a coach, is impressive. At Muskegon High School he was cap ta in of his team dur ing his senior year and an all-conference winner in the South-western League. At Hope he was a member of Milton L. Hinga ' s f a m o u s Blitz Kids and was named to the all-MIAA team.

After a tour of duty in the Marine Corps he re-entered Hope where he soon led the MIAA in scoring. In his senior year he was chosen to receive the Randal l C. Bosch a w a r d a s t h e m o s t v a l u a b l e p l a y e r in the MIAA for the 1946-47 season.

After g r a d u a t i n g f rom Hope he received his mas te r ' s degree a year later f rom the Universi ty of Michi-gan . He began his coaching career at Hope as the backfield, basketbal l and t rack coach. His coaching career was interrupted when he re-entered the Marine Corps . In 1953 he became head basketbal l and backfield coach for the University of Maine. Two years later, he was back at Hope as the head basketba l l and foot-ball coach.

His basketball teams have won 186 games and lost only 110. In his 10 years as head coach, Hope has won seven MIAA cham-pionships. Last year Hope finished second in the conference

with a 9-3 record. In 1957 Mr. De Vette was chosen as the 1956-57 Basketball Coach of the Year by the members of the Nat ional Association of Intercollegiate Athletics.

Mr. De Vette is a lso head coach of the football team and led his s q u a d to a second place finish last year with a 3-2 league record. In 1957 Coach De Vette's team finished with a 7-2 record, and went 8-1 in each of the following two years , best in the MIAA.

This year . Coach De \ 'e t te looks fo rward with ant icipat ion. His football team has 20 re turning lettermen, and his basketbal l team will feature two All-MIAA selec-tions.

Two Field Goals Decisive

Football Team Loses Opener By Glenn Gouwens

The Hope College Flying Dutch-men dropped their opening foot-ball game to Augus tana College last week as Tom Tessiatore kick-ed two field goa l s to give the Vik-ings their 6-0 win. It was the first time Hope met A u g u s t a n a on the gr id i ron and the first of three non-conference g a m e s Hope will p l ay this year .

If statistics decided the outcome of the ball g a m e it would have been Hope 's victory. Hope col-lected 16 first downs to Augus-t a n a ' s 7. The Vikings compiled more y a r d s ru sh ing with 131 to

Chicago, Detroit Clash on Court At Civic Center

Professional basketbal l re turns to Holland next T h u r s d a y when the Detroit I 'istons meet the newly-formed Chicago Bulls in an NBA exhibition match . Game time is 8 p.m. at the Civic Center.

Sparked by their player-coach Dave DeBusschere, fo rward Ray Scott, g u a r d s Tom Van Arsda le and Fddie Miles, and s o p h o m o r e s tandout Ron Reed, the I'istons may well be vic tor ious in Hol land aga in . Last yea r they edged the New York Knicks here 111-104.

1 he ( h icago Bulls boast such ou t s tand ing p layers as Bob Boo-zer and Jim King, who were both with the c h a m p i o n Los Angeles Lakers , Len Chappel f rom New York, Don Kojis f rom the I'istons, and Big Ten ace Dave Schellhose.

Hope ' s 107, but the Dutch added 94 y a r d s p a s s i n g while al lowing A u g u s t a n a no ya rds in the air to give Hope a total of 201 y a r d s to A u g g y ' s 131 total. A u g u s t a n a ' s scor ing came with

three minutes and 4 5 seconds to p lay in the first half when Tessia-tore booted his first three-pointer 25 y a r d s . Tessiatore 's second field goal c a m e in the third quar -ter when he kicked one for 32 y a r d s to give Augus tana their final score. HOPE b e ^ a n early in the g a m e

with a long drive that lasted ten minutes and brought them all the way to A u g u s t a n a ' s one ya rd line which was the closest either team got to the g o a l line the entire eve-ning. It was L angel and who brought

the ball to the one y a r d line after receiving a screen pa s s f rom quar -terback Ga ry Frens. Frens was then unab le to receive the s n a p f rom center by Ken Carpenter on the next two attempts and lost the ball to Augus t ana on the second fumble.

Fach team r a n th rough a set of downs and exchanged punts. Walt Reed picked up a first down by way of a classy double reverse ma-neuver but Hope soon found it-self on their own 27 with 24 y a r d s to go for a first down. Frens was caught behind the line of scrim-m a g e a t tempting to pass and was d ropped for a 16 ya rd loss follow-ed by Hope suffering a 15 y a r d penal ty which cancelled a 17 ya rd roll out run by Frens.

Tessia tore 's first field goal was set up when Frens was hit and fumbled on the third down with 24 y a r d s to go.

A U G U S T A N A ' S Ira Weisberg b rough t the ball to Hope 's four on eight and six yard carries. Lange-land broke up the next play and put them back on the ten on ly to

be followed two p l ays later with less ia tore ' s 25 ya rd field goa l .

Keith Able ran well on the kick off after the field goal and b rough t the ball to Hope's 49 after a 3' y a r d ca r ry . The Dutch aga i i . moved the ball well and ended up on the Augus tana 22 before los-ing the ball on downs with 32 sec-onds left in the half.

IN T H E SECOND half Hope threatened twice as they came in-side the Viking's 35 but on both occas ions they lost the ball on downs.

After I essiatore 's second field goal Hope took over on their own 47 and drove to the Auggy 32, but with 20 seconds r ema in ing in the g a m e Augus tana defensive ha l fback , ( harles B a s h a a r , inter-cepted a 1- rens pass at his own seven which allowed the Vikings to run out the clock for the 6-0 victory.

I HE BRIGHT SPOT o f the g a m e was the Hope defense which re-peatedly stopped the Vikings when they threatened to score. The de-fense allowed Augus t ana only 131 y a r d s on the g round and 0 y a r d s in the air . Leading the defense were tackles Carl Van Wyke, •lohn 1 lu i sman and g u a r d s Mark Menning and Steve I ' iersma a l o n g with L angel and who was in m a n y of the tackles. EVEN though Hopelos t their op-

ener, the iuture looks bright. If they can iron out some of the rough spots and s tay healthy the I ' lying Dutchmen should p rove to be very s t rong in MIAA action. \\ heaton, I lope's second non-con-ference foe, will be a good meas-ure to see how s t rong the Dutch really a r e this year since Wheaten is supposed to be tougher than last year . Hope will meet Wheaton at \\ hea ton tomor row before they enter MIAA competit ion the fol-lowing week agains t Adr ian .
