Wc Interview //%*// Y" News "Suzy Hope" is not a One Man Woman What with everything falling, leaves 1 mean, and everybody busy with rushing and "football prac- tice," it looks as if the all-impor- tant wouldn't be mail—or did 1 say m-a-l-e?? Well, they do have definite connections as "ye roving reporter" has reverently discovered on an all-campus survey. Nothing interferes with the male mail! By the looks of the census poll, one could easily see that "Susie" Hope does little more than corres- ponding to her one-and-only. If ever you are scouring the campus for one of the co-eds, you'll find her burying herself in an attempt to compose a whirl of words to some G.I. No more is a man judged by character, but by the " type of letter he is able to write. Of course, one can see by the chart that the Seniors are truly "khaki" gals — but who can ex- plain the Junior co-ed's similar choice of uniform? And no one can put anything over on our little Freshies, for have you ever seen so much variety? All goes to show —green or no green they're still on the ball. One can always note that our Senior belle is not impartial that is, doesn't write to one or more in each branch of uniform; but down through the ages — no, I mean years "Susie" Hope seems to want more variety so she jots a note to "a few." So don't you worry about "Susie" even though there aren't many on the campus young or other- wise — men, I mean, she will be spending many a wintor evening slinging a letter to that certain one in the Service! a b c d e Sr. : 46% 12% 26% 12% 5% Jr 30% 20% 20% 30% Soph 41% 18% 41% Fr 11% 2% 41% 2% 44% a.

Summer work in the Kentucky mountains was the subject dis- cussed by Mary Lois De Fouw and Joyce Van Oss at the Y.W.C.A. meeting last Tuesday evening. Mary Lois spoke mainly in con- nection with the six Daily Vacation Bible Schools in which the girls taught. The schools were held in the hills near Annville and Mc- Kee, where the Reformed Church has located two mission stations. Joyce gave rather general in- formation about the work at Ann- ville Institute. She spoke about the campus, the "cheap stores," the Sunday School work and mentioned various connections with the moun- tain people "who are in reality, no different than you or I except for the opportunities we have and they lack." The meeting was in charge of Libby Romaine, who also led de- votions. Pat Haskin and Spike Sawitsky sang "Open My Eyes," accompanied by Prudence Haskin. HINE ELECTED PRESIDENT Richard Hine was elected presi- dent and Harold Schuller, secre- tary at the Y.M.C.A. meeting, Oc- tober 10. Adrian Bos presided during the election and Harold Des Autels and Prof. Hinkamp were in charge of devotions. Instead of the regular meeting the group went up to hear Dr. Oscar Blackwelder speak at the Sunday School Con- vention. Y.M. vice president. Bill Brandli, has announced the program for the coming three weeks. The 4 next meeting will be spent in discussion and at the Oct. 24 meeting which has been planned for Oct. 31 with Dr. Vergeer leading the discussion on Evolution from the Standpoint of the Church. All desiring to ask questions related to the subject will please turn them in to either Bill Brandli or Mary Lou Hemmes. Green Frosh French Club Outlined Activities of Year Rosanna Atkins, the president of the French Club, led the first meeting in the Sorosis Room on Wednesday night, October 11. The other officers are: Vice pres- ident, Janet Bogart; secretary, Elaine Prins; and treasurer, Mar- jorie Van Vranken. The program for the coming year, planned by Miss Bogart, is to study the French race from a cultural point of view. Then they all told, in French, what they did during the summer.

A petite woman with a man- sized job—that's our Dean of Women, Mile. Lichty. Besides act- ing as friend and guide to the Hope co-eds and advising students in many campus activities, she teaches French and loves it. Although Miss Lichty misses dorm-life after having lived in Voorhees for the past seven years, she delights in the new apartment which she and Miss Gibbs share. A peek into her leisure moments might find her reading, knitting, cooking or golfing — all of which are her favorite pastimes. Her pet peeve is the girl who comes to her for permission and says, "I'm go- ing away now. May I?" All in all, with her sparkling personality, good sportsmanship and fine character, Mis® Lichty Has won a place in the hearts of all who know her. A familiar figure in Graves Li- brary is Miss Gibbs. As librarian and general administrator, she not only selects the books for pur- chase, but also aids the student who comes to her for information and reference about books. For relaxation she likes to sew and hike, but Miss Lichty asserts that some of Miss Gibbs' leisure moments are spent in making de- licious rolls and pies.

The meeting was started by singing "America" in German, and a patriotic theme was carried throughout the program. More Ger- man songs were sung and several word-games were played in Ger- man. The program ended with the singing of "Deutschland, Deutsch- land uber Alles." The other officer is "Pinks" Mulder, secretary-treasurer. A vice president is to be elected at the next meeting.

W.A.L. president, Mary Liz Aldrich, and Ev. Everse, student council president, will be the upperclass- men privileged to start the Frosh on the road to submission. To make the program complete, for the freshmen, a fee of one dollar will be charged for the stylish "pots." Program Precedes Preceding the donning of the green will be a program arranged by Ruth Ellison, social chairman of the student council, and general chairman for the mixer. Bill Brand- li will lead the student body in singing the college songs. The Sen- iors will display their talents, with Helen Wilhelm and Sarah Jack as chairmen of their part of the enter- tainment. More group singing will precede the j u n i o r programs di- rected by Pinks Mulder and Ruth Joldersma. Parts Assembled for Hope College Jeep W.A.L., as a result of contribu- tions, has begun assembling parts for the Hope College jeep. We have a bumper, hood, panel, headlights and safety belt.

Future Activities Are Arranged By Alcor "A cup of coffee and a roll, please." That's the most common order down in that ever-busy Alcor snackbar downstairs in Van Raalte. It's called the Koffee Kletz and talk about variety!! The menu offers cokes, coffee, rolls (three kinds), and apples to Hope stu- dents, seminary students, faculty, and janitors. The Alcor co-eds are getting to be stars at coffee mak- ing; they even have a contract with Dr. Vergeer's Tuesday-Thursday Lab to sell coffee at 3:00 in the afternoon. Beside working on an average of four hours per girl per week, Alcor members have had several business meetings, according to Prexy Rich- ards. Alcor is happy to announce that Miss Burrows is to be its new advisor to replace Miss Oggel, who has left Hope. Also, Alcor plans to have its traditional Waffle Din- ner late in October at Miss Lichty's apartment. Any time now you will notice cute little plants growing out of Wooden Shoe flower pots decorating the Koffee Kletz. These are to be donated to The Cause by Miss Boyd, another of Alcor's ad- visors. So, folks, from Alcor it's, "See you at the Koffee Kletz!" P and M Presents Two New Plays "Live at Home and Like It" is the title of the play that Pallette and Masque will present on Sat- urday, October 28, for Homecom- ing. Tryouts for the play were held Monday night after the regu- lar business meeting of P. and M. The properties, costumes, and stage committees were also chosen. On Monday night, October 30, there will be tryouts for another play. Anyone who might be inter- ested is invited to come to the Commons Room in Van Raalte Hall at 7:30. Actors are especially needed and therefore the men on Mr. DeGraff is the j Hope's campus are urged to attend this meeting. Females Blitz Homecoming As I sit here on this beautiful day, typical of October's "bright blue weather," a line of song comes to my mind . . . "Water boy, where is you hiding . . .?" Am I thirsty? No! I am practi- cally drooling over the thought that this month we are to have a Home- coming game! Then why the song, you ask? Well, there won't be a water boy this year. No sir. But . . . wait until you see the smooth little gals that'll be totin' the wire baskets around. October the 28th is the day when Hope will see this wonder come to pass. An all-girls' team, run by girls, assisted by girls and sup- ported by girls. Oh, 1 know there will be derisive laughter from the Hope men, but it will turn to a sheepish grin when they see the weaker (?) sex in action. If you want action, you will get it. Plenty of it. No rough-house stuff, understand, but action. . . . Wait 'til you see the girls run out onto the field. They have had training and have been in train- ing. My! how they've grown. "Look at those shoulders, chum." "If her mother could see her now!" "Hope really develops an all-around girl." I was over to watch practice the other day. Jack was explaining the principles of the game to some of the meeker lassies. When he lined them up for practice you could see their fighting spirit. There was a flashing of eyes, the whistle blew and before I knew it one girl was off down the field with the rest of both teams behind her. That is all but one girl. She stood on the line of scrimmage with a funny look on her face. Jack declared it a touchdown and asked for the ball. "The ball?" echoed the co-eds, "that girl back there has the ball." And so the play started over again from the line of scrimmage. This time it was more of a mass murder. Talk about a pile of arms and legs and curls — and I thought it was touch football. The worst casualty was when Ann Vander Jact broke her longest fingernail. On the third down Louise Rove started through the center of the line to tackle hefty Rosemary Fin- law. Elaine Mensiner took the ball around left end and threw a pass to Marie Jenkins. At least it was intended for Marie, but Connie Crawford helped her catch it Then there ensued a great argument over who had the ball. Connie could talk the loudest, but Marie didn't hesitate to pull her hair and yank the ball away. When Jack got there, he discovered both girls were on the same side and settled it up by announcing they would kick on the fourth down. One of the little Meulendyke twins was half back and really gave that kick all she had. She discovered later than she wasn't the one that was supposed to kick, but at least she gave it all she had. I don't remember anything else till they carried Jane Fichtner off the field. She's still limping around due to a knee that was thrown out of joint (or something). Cheer leaders and drum majors were practicing along the sidelines. Oh, it's a great game and involves a lot qf intestinal fortitude or maybe it's mair-xy-doats. Anyhood, just watch those gals when they get out there on that Homecoming day. This is something new, all right, arid boy, it sure is going over. I've screamed a lot myself, and am hoarse, so better stop. This is a brief preview of futyre events, and I'm so excited just thinking about the game that I can't wait to see it How about you, kid? Dr. Wichers Entertains Dr. Wynand Wichers will then entertain with his inimitable humor in an informal talk. The Sopho- mores will follow Dr. Wichers with their program under the direction of Elaine Meeusen and Marian Kor- teling. Barbara and Virginia Bil- kert will lead in the Hope cheers. The Freshmen assume last place in the mixer with their program un- der the direction of Cleo Vander Molen and Rosemary Finlaw. Light refreshments will be served by the A.D.D. girls. Rules for Smart Frosh Rules all smart frosh will fol- low until the "burning" are: (1) All frosh must "pot" to upper- classmen with a graceful sweep and bow; (2) "greenies" are for- bidden to appear on the streets after 10:30 p. m. while these laws are in force; (3) Freshmen may not date upperclassmen except on Sundays and society meeting nights; (4) most important of all, frosh must wear their "green" at all times on campus and off. Of- fenders of these rules will be severely punished by Student Coun- cil. Scalpel Club Meets with Doctor Vergeer The old members of Scalpel Club met with Dr. Vergeer for the first time in the new year on October 4, 1944. A business meeting was held in which there was a discus- sion of new membership and nec- essary qualifications. These qualifi- cations are the sincere interest of the person, a Biology-major, pre- med, or pre-nursing, and a previ- ous course in Biology. The new members of Scalpel Club will be welcomed in our next meeting which is to be on the third Wednesday 6t this month. The club will be privileged to hear as our guest speaker, a doctor home on furlough who will speak on "Bums," a subject of great inter- est and importance to us all in these days. o Emmy, Van Vleck Elect Houseboard Officers On Wednesday, September 27, a Van Vleck houseboard meeting was called by Jane Smies for the pur- pose of elections. The new officers are as follows: President, Ann Fikse; secretary-treasurer, Betty Kingsfield. Representatives chosen last spring are Marian Korteling, Marian Dame, and Elaine Meusen. The Emersonian houseboard mem- bers were elected as follows: Presi- dent, Millie Vermaire; secretary- treasurer, Mary Ellen Brower. Irene Demian and Dorothy Van- derWoude are also representatives.

"Suzy Hope" is not

a One Man Woman What with everything falling,

leaves 1 mean, and everybody busy with rushing and "football prac-tice," it looks as if the all-impor-tant wouldn't be mail—or did 1 say m-a-l-e?? Well, they do have definite connections as "ye roving reporter" has reverently discovered on an all-campus survey. Nothing interferes with the male mail!

By the looks of the census poll, one could easily see that "Susie" Hope does little more than corres-ponding to her one-and-only. If ever you are scouring the campus for one of the co-eds, you'll find her burying herself in an attempt to compose a whirl of words to some G.I. No more is a man judged by character, but by the

" type of letter he is able to write. Of course, one can see by the

chart that the Seniors are truly "khaki" gals — but who can ex-plain the Junior co-ed's similar choice of uniform? And no one can put anything over on our little Freshies, for have you ever seen so much variety? All goes to show —green or no green — they're still on the ball.

One can always note that our Senior belle is not impartial — that is, doesn't write to one or more in each branch of uniform; but down through the ages — no, I mean years — "Susie" Hope seems to want more variety so she jots a note to "a few."

So don't you worry about "Susie" — even though there aren't many on the campus — young or other-wise — men, I mean, she will be spending many a wintor evening slinging a letter to that certain one in the Service!

Beside working on an average of four hours per girl per week, Alcor members have had several business meetings, according to Prexy Rich-ards. Alcor is happy to announce that Miss Burrows is to be its new advisor to replace Miss Oggel, who has left Hope. Also, Alcor plans to have its traditional Waffle Din-ner late in October at Miss Lichty's apartment. Any time now you will notice cute little plants growing out of Wooden Shoe flower pots decorating the Koffee Kletz. These are to be donated to The Cause by Miss Boyd, another of Alcor's ad-visors. So, folks, from Alcor it's, "See you at the Koffee Kletz!"

P and M Presents

Two New Plays

"Live at Home and Like I t" is the title of the play that Pallette and Masque will present on Sat-urday, October 28, for Homecom-ing. Tryouts for the play were held Monday night a f te r the regu-lar business meeting of P. and M. The properties, costumes, and stage committees were also chosen. •

On Monday night, October 30, there will be tryouts for another play. Anyone who might be inter-ested is invited to come to the Commons Room in Van Raalte Hall at 7:30. Actors are especially needed and therefore the men on

Mr. DeGraff is the j Hope's campus are urged to attend this meeting.

Females Blitz Homecoming As I sit here on this beautiful

day, typical of October's "bright blue weather," a line of song comes to my mind . . . "Water boy, where is you hiding . . . ? "

Am I th i rs ty? No! I am practi-cally drooling over the thought that this month we are to have a Home-coming game! Then why the song, you ask? Well, there won't be a water boy this year. No sir. But . . . wait until you see the smooth little gals that'll be totin' the wire baskets around.

October the 28th is the day when Hope will see this wonder come to pass. An all-girls' team, run by girls, assisted by girls and sup-ported by girls. Oh, 1 know there will be derisive laughter f rom the Hope men, but it will turn to a sheepish grin when they see the weaker ( ? ) sex in action.

If you want action, you will get it. Plenty of it. No rough-house stuff, understand, but action. . . .

Wait 'til you see the girls run out onto the field. They have had training and have been in train-ing. My! how they've grown. "Look at those shoulders, chum." "If her mother could see her now!" "Hope really develops an all-around girl."

I was over to watch practice the

other day. Jack was explaining the principles of the game to some of the meeker lassies. When he lined them up for practice you could see their fighting spirit. There was a flashing of eyes, the whistle blew and before I knew it one girl was off down the field with the rest of both teams behind her. That is all but one girl. She stood on the line of scrimmage with a funny look on her face. Jack declared it a touchdown and asked for the ball. "The ba l l?" echoed the co-eds, " tha t girl back there has the ball." And so the play started over again from the line of scrimmage.

This time it was more of a mass murder. Talk about a pile of a rms and legs and curls — and I thought it was touch football. The worst casualty was when Ann Vander Jact broke her longest fingernail.

On the third down Louise Rove started through the center of the line to tackle hefty Rosemary Fin-law. Elaine Mensiner took the ball around left end and threw a pass to Marie Jenkins. At least it was intended for Marie, but C o n n i e Crawford helped her catch i t Then there ensued a great argument over who had the ball. Connie could talk the loudest, but Marie didn't

hesitate to pull her hair and yank the ball away. When Jack got there, he discovered both girls were on the same side and settled it up by announcing they would kick on the fourth down.

One of the little Meulendyke twins was half back and really gave that kick all she had. She discovered later than she wasn't the one that was supposed to kick, but at least she gave i t all she had. I don't remember anything else till they carried Jane Fichtner off the field. She's still limping around due to a knee that was thrown out of joint (or something).

Cheer leaders and drum majors were practicing along the sidelines. Oh, it's a great game and involves a lot qf intestinal fortitude or maybe it's mair-xy-doats. Anyhood, just watch those gals when they get out there on that Homecoming day. This is something new, all right, arid boy, it sure is going over.

I've screamed a lot myself, and am hoarse, so better stop. This is a brief preview of futyre events, and I'm so excited just thinking about the game that I can't wait to see i t

How about you, kid?

Dr. Wichers Entertains

Dr. Wynand Wichers will then entertain with his inimitable humor in an informal talk. The Sopho-mores will follow Dr. Wichers with their program under the direction of Elaine Meeusen and Marian Kor-teling. Barbara and Virginia Bil-kert will lead in the Hope cheers. The Freshmen assume last place in the mixer with their program un-der the direction of Cleo Vander Molen and Rosemary Finlaw.

Light refreshments will be served by the A.D.D. girls.

Rules for Smart Frosh

Rules all smart frosh will fol-low until the "burning" are: (1) All frosh must "pot" to upper-classmen — with a graceful sweep and bow; (2) "greenies" are for-bidden to appear on the streets a f t e r 10:30 p. m. while these laws are in force; (3) Freshmen may not date upperclassmen except on Sundays and society m e e t i n g nights; (4) most important of all, frosh must wear their "green" at all times on campus and off. Of-fenders of these rules will be severely punished by Student Coun-cil.

Scalpel Club Meets

with Doctor Vergeer The old members of Scalpel Club

met with Dr. Vergeer fo r the first time in the new year on October 4, 1944. A business meeting was held in which there was a discus-sion of new membership and nec-essary qualifications. These qualifi-cations are the sincere interest of the person, a Biology-major, pre-med, or pre-nursing, and a previ-ous course in Biology. The new members of Scalpel Club will be welcomed in our next meeting which is to be on the third Wednesday 6t this month. The club will be privileged to hear as our guest speaker, a doctor home on furlough who will speak on "Bums ," a subject of great inter-est and importance to us all in these days.

Is This The Code We Live By? From the first code of laws devised by Hammurabi, the

Ten Commandments presented to Moses, and the beatitudes of Christ to this day man has been striving to live by certain written laws governing his personal and group life.

Last year the women of Hope College formulated this cretd for the representative Hope girl. It is not a set of unbreakable laws, but rather the principles the women of Hope will endeavor to live by. Each is an indispensable part of what we believe is the well rounded Christian person-ality. It was composed with its usefulness and need in mind, not so elevated that it will be held far above daily living, but attainable and workable in everyday life.

Since these are the principles we have chosen to strive for, they should be made a part of our code of living. They were not a decree of the administration but came voluntarily from the student body. They represent our belief in the practicability of the Christian principles, and point the way to the most worthwhile kind of campus life.

Since the ideals in this code are part of the traditions and mores of Hope College, each girl is expected to adhere to them.

Happy October to you, happy October to you . . . That ' s r ight , i t 's me again, snooping into your business and telling the whole world, well a t least the whole cam-pus. And I hear there 's plenty to tell of late.

The lowly f rosh are not so low-ly. We hear tha t one Jean Watson, f rom their midst, is a genius at taking shorthand notes and typing. Hopeite let ters for Miss Lichty . . . Pa t McComber is becoming pret ty well acquainted with Shakespeare and Morley, as well as the student body, while she busies herself in the library.

This year 's "biscuit packin' dorm gir ls" include Mary Ellen Brower and Marion Ter Boer from the frosh class. Hoppy Hospers and Es Bogart do the honors for the sophs and there are, we hear, quite a few more . . . What do we all think of Mary Lou Hemmes and Dr. Raymond working for the Re-publicans.

Joints are unmistakably out of place, according to V i r g i n ia Hemmes. who rode a bike three whole miles in only one afternoon. Did we hear something about she and Elsie doing some swimming not more than two weeks ago?

We pay special deference at this time to the worthy members of The Organization for Anxiously Awaiting Aunties. Heading the group is the most anxious auntie-to-be of them all — Ev. Vermulm, supported by the confident, happy person of Libby Romaine. It doesn't take Libby all day to do a day's work so she still has time enough to create g i f t s for the would-be nephew arr iving with Washington and Lincoln. Pinks Mulder has been on the fence for so long t rying to decide once and for all whether her best bet would be to take up the cause for pink or for blue that finally in desperation she decided to be completely neutral so now Pinks knits a wee white sweater.

Not Many Openingsjn A Lifetime

Then there is Sarah Jack who is being very peaceful about the prospects for this coming Armis-tice day. Of-course-it-will-be-a-boy Maatman, who has endured such strain on her general mental condition lately t ry ing to learn either to knit or to crochet, has decided tha t readymade products are plenty good enough and plans to be very thankfu l come Thanks-giving and Presidential elections. Newly qualified member, C a r o l Kile, who typifies the height of elation and impatience, can' t quite decide whether to hope for another Navy man in the family or ein kleine madchen.

Three honorary members have been added to the ranks : V e r a Pennings, whose s ta tus at present is nothing higher than a hopeful would-be, Polly Naas, to whom be-ing an aunt is an old story, and June Darress, who occupies a spe-cial place in the activities of the organization. June is to be a sister any day now, which goes to show-that witches, Jack-o-lanterns and goblins aren ' t the only a t tendants of Hallowe'en.

Hey, everybody, hold your hats. We have a voise (pome to you) that Kile penned just fo r this very kolum. We give it to you in con-clusion.

DA HOI MIT

"Live alone and like i t ," The ancient prophet cried. To this I took exception And thusly I replied: I live alone and love it. Through preference, you see; Nor find cause to blame this mess On anyone but me. I stow my gear where'er I please, Study less or more, And satisfy abnormal quirks By daubing up my floor. I'm just as happy as can be, So please don't think me rude For taking such delight in this— My den of solitude.

"English Composition" — that ' s me. And, believe it or n o t , ! should be a senior now, cause I've spent four studious ( ? ) years on Hope's Campus and I'm worn to a mere frazzle of. my real book self.

The.first thing I remember about my life is a shelf of the Blue Key Book Store. I hadn ' t lived there very long when I was handed to a Freshman girl named Jane. Jane and I became very good friends. She studied me every night as Freshmen are expected to do. She learned all my verbs and nouns and never tore my pages by frant ical ly refer r ing to me when the teacher asked a question. I was very proud of my first owner, although all her A's were due to the excellent way in which I am writ ten. However, Jane had one very annoying habit. She used to eat crackers while studying me and let crumbs drop into my pages. I never could un-derstand why people have to eat while reading.

The next year J ane sold me to Dora. My useful days were gone. Dora let me collect dust between her bookends while she dashed to answer buzzers and phone calls. She'd grab me about two minutes before a class and run to arrive at even a semblance of the correct time. My blue cover always turned red with embarrassment when we walked into the English room three minutes a f t e r the bell rang. Occa-sionally she'd take me down to the Model with her latest man (those

Crcch of (!*o-cb Because we believe that the Church-related college holds an increas-

ingly important place in the life of America, because we believe tha t

there is a definite code of Christian conduct, and because we believe

that the Church-related college can fulfni its function only when its s tudents stand firmly for this code, we, the women of Hope College, do accept this creed:

The representat ive HOPE girl seeks to improve herself spiritually, mentally, socially, and physically, by:

• Maintaining at all times the highest scholarship of which she is capable,

• Identifying herself with the religious life of the campus,

• Attending church regularly,

• Giving loyal support to those extra-curricular activities which will best serve to broaden her cultural life,

• Being honest in all classroom and campus relationships,

• Refraining f rom idle gossip,

• Respecting the rules of the college and neither smoking nor drink-ing while in attendance,

• Conducting herself with propriety and discretion in all social rela-tionships,

• Associating with as many groups as possible and avoiding cliques,

• And by remembering at all times that the honor of HOPE is her personal responsibility.

were the good old days when da tes weren't dried f r u i t ) , but she al-ways managed to dab me with some hot fudge sauce and spoil my white complexion. Then when exams rolled around she kept me up until all hours of the night t ry-ing to cram my vast knowledge into her ra ther dizzy head.

Once she practically broke my back when she threw me a t her roommate in one of their fr iendly quarrels. To Dora I was no more than paper. She never understood me and I'm the type of book t ha t needs sympathy.

In my third year on Hope's Cam-pus I belonged to Edna. My days of misery had only begun. Edna was, as we say in book language, a destroyer. She scribbled all over my pages in class. I was covered with everything f rom the latest dress models to the Army, Navy, and Marine insignia. She folded back my pages, doodled on my cov-er, and made me look like some-thing from the second-hand store. One rainy night she left me on the stone bench in f ront of Graves. In the morning I looked as battle-scarred as "The History of the French Revolution."

This year I've been purchased by a dark-haired girl who hasn' t yet placed her name within my cover. I'm hoping for a brighter, more serious semester. Maybe my new owner will open me once in awhile, do you think so?

P. M. Dutch dolls, wooden shoes,

Chinese pieces of a r t and many other curios peeped out of various corners. Upon their arrival each guest was presented with a red rose as a favor. The programs consisted of small flags of the various Allied nations.

The flag of the Netherlands was represented by Klompen Dans danced by Lois and Jean Meulen-dyke and Bernice Hibma. England with her green meadows and lords and ladies, was represented by Alice Duer Miller's beautiful poem, "The White Cliffs of Dover," read by Betty Timmer, "Cieli to Lindo" and "South of the Border" sung by Ruth Ann Poppen carried us to Mexico. Russia was represented by a solemn, ponderous drama, "De Viper." Lynn Lundberg was the solemn, awe-inspiring czar and Betty Timmer, "De Viper."

Hawaiian punch, wooden shoe shaped sandwiches and cakes were served for ref reshments . A social hour was enjoyed by all.

DELPHI

Delphi's formal rushing tea was held as "Opera Matinee" in Delta Phi Hall on October 7, with Junior Marge Gysbers as Mistress of Ceremonies. Three o'clock found the "conductor making his way to the podium, the lights dimming, and the curtain rising on Act I." An andante mood, it featured Sophomort Myra Brouwer, singing "I Love Life."

Eleanor Everse took over in Act II, Allegro, with her serious paper, "This Is Ours." The paper vividly and picturesquely portrayed the beauties of au tumn sights, scents, and sounds, which are ours to hold for ourselves and for the re turn of our fighting men and women.

"Opera Matinee" was privileged to have dur ing its intermission a guest music critic f rom the New York Times in the person of Pinks Mulder, who gave a delightfully modernistic and jivey review of the opera, "Romeo and J u l i e t "

Act III depicted two moods as the Delta Phi sextet sang "My Hero" and "The Woman in the Shoe." Included in the sextet a re Constance Crawford, Peggy Cross, Carol Meppelink, Myra Brouwer, Mary Lois De Fouw, and Elaine Meeusen. 0

Preceding the program, Delphi's guests were presented with lovely hand-painted programs and cor-sages of mums and roses.

sis entertained about two dozen freshmen at a "Candlelight Tea." The program was started with "Wick's Lit" by Elsie Parsons fol-lowed by "Melodic Flickerings" as Barbara Tazelaar waxed classical and played "Clair de Lune." Mary Liz Aldrich read the serious paper, "Sigma Sigma's Guiding Light" In which she explained the stand-ards. successes, and hopes of Soro-sis. "Drippings by Two Wax," turned out to be the Bilkert twins. Bobbies gave with a hot number "His Rocking Horse Ran Away" (with apologies to Betty Hutton who sang with her) as Ginny played the "Junior" to whom the song was dedicated.

Af te r Betty Hutton stopped singing all the Sorosites sang the Sorosis song a f t e r which the ap-petites were filled with "Tummy Tallow" cooked1, by Doris Fred-ricks. Before each girl left she was given a yellow rose—tradition-al flower of Sigma Sigma.

SIBYLLINE

All Sibs gathered in the Sib room on Thursday afternoon, Octo-ber G, to s tar t the round of final sorority teas. Musical numbers and decorations were centered on an "Informal Garden Pa r ty " theme. Punch was served instead of tea and sandwiches were consumed in considerable number. Happy Maat-man began the informal program with a few selections of her favor-ite poems having to do with the theme. While the Sibs and their guests visited, Pa t Haskin and Mike Kleis took their places at the cello and piano respectively to play "Largo." Also included in the mu-sic for the af ternoon was "Night and Day" sung by a trio consist-ing of Edna Mae Van Tatenhove, Harr iet Hains and Spike Sawitzky. The last number on the program was "The End of a Perfect Day" sung by Vera Pennings.

like I speak French so you can imagine how much we got out of his lecture."

A / C Neil Lampen in U.S.N, pre-flight school a t Athens, Ga., is al-most ready to get his wings.

Pvt . Wally Van Liere writes f rom Edgewood Arsenal, Md., "I 'm finally out of the 'sunny south' and back to civilization, snatched out of the a rms of P.O.E., put in a school with possibility of O.C.S., and a dozen other breaks. I 'm happy."

Lt. Bud Morgan, USMC, was in the Saipan engagement. That was the third of the island invasions' in which he had participated. He must have zigged and zagged at the r ight time because he has come through o.k. and is now at a rest camp.

De Young

Cpl. Ed De Young at Fort John Curtis, Cape Charles, Va., missed Hope and wonders what the cam-pus is coming to when the girls first take over the men's dorm and are now occupying the frat house. He couldn't have been half as sur-prised as Lt. Rod Funsten was when he knocked on the door of the Emmy house, and was greeted by a petite f reshman; for a moment he was quite confused. Rod is a pilot of a C-47 and visited the campus for a few hours last week. His destination is the Pacific area. Happy Landing!

Pvt. Helen Van Alst and Pvt. Audrey Scott, stationed at Lawson General Hospital, still think that the army is tops. They like the physiotherapy work very much.

S o r o r i t y H i y b l t y b t s - - -DORIAN

In a settinR of candlelight and

flowers, portraying the "lavender

of the western skies, the gold of

the setting sun," Dorian pledged

the seventeen new girls who have

already, in the few weeks of ac-

quaintanceship, grown near and

dear to her heart.

The president, Evelyn Shiffner,

expressed her pleasure in welcom-

ing the new pledges and each

member of Kappa Beta Phi pre-

sented a pledge to the society.

Marie Jenkins had charge of the

program which centered around

"our pledge." The programs were

in the shape of sorority pins. Ma-

rie Jenkins presented "Fa i th" with

scripture reading and prayer.

" M e 1 o (1 y " was personified by

Frieda Grote. Bunny Goff g a v e

us plenty of "Mirth" with her hu-

mor paper on the man shortage.

The serious thoughts for the

evening were presented by Frances

Koeman in "Design for Dorians,"

the history of Kappa Beta Phi and

the things for which it stands.

The society formed the Dorian circle and sang the Dorian song, followed by adjournment to the home of Thelma Oonk for refresh-ments and fun.

The Dorian Pledges are:

Jo Anne Biddle Betty Brinkman Lorraine Bult Ruth Dolenberg Margaret De Bey Joyce De Wolf Rosemary Finlaw Carole Erickson Patricia Macomber Alice Laughlin Rosalind Scholten Gerry Scheerens Joyce Van Lopik Maxine Van Oss Jean Watson Phyllis Voss Jane Zondag

THESA I R I A N

The Thesaurian Society held a short meeting at seven o'clock Fri-day evening to formally initiate Lynn Lundberg. Margaret White, and Martha Felton. The pledges arrived at seven-thirty o'clock. The meeting was opened with de-votions led by Edna Mae Richards. The girls were then pledged in a candlelight service. Ruth Ann Poppen, president, then welcomed

the pledges into Theta Gamma Pi. The meeting was ended with the singing of the sorority song.

The Thesaunans then wended their way to the home of Adeline Sybesma. There they entertained themselves with group singing and games. In "Truth or Consequences" some girls found themselves doing the dishes. There was also a shoe hunt. Refreshments were served.

The Thesaurian pledges are Mar-jorie Curtis, Janet Huizenga, Ruth Kip, Louise Edwards, Ellene Bos-land, Marilyn Boyink, Margaret Van Klief, Marjorie Brewer, Mar-ion Maurer, Elida Kloosterman, Martha Van Saun, and Pauline Stegenga.

SIBYLLINE

After a very short Sibylline meeting Sibylline's new pledges joined them in the sorority room at Friday evening. After the president, Myra Klies', warm wel-come to every new pledge the pro-gram for the evening was opened by devotions in charge of alumna, Dorothy Front jes Maatman. Devo-tions were followed by Vera Pen-ning's rendition of The Lord's Prayer accompanied by Harriet H a i n s . In accordance with the trend in everyone's thoughts, Shir-ley Lemmen then gave some very appropriate and thought-provoking quotations on "Friendship." The news, according to Kile, was the next step and all listened with in-terest to the well chosen facts con-cerning the news of the war, home front and general items of inter-est. One of the nicest surprises of the evening was the presence of Sib alumna. Frances Vander Broek. who assumed her well-known role and rendered a very clever humor paper. Edna Mae Van Tatenhove, accompanied by Harriet Hains, then sang "Say a Prayer for the Boys Over There." The program was closed with a serious paper written and read by Harriet Stegeman in which she tried to put into words the aims and ideals of Sibylline. Critic for the meeting was Helen Wilhelm. The highlight of the evening was the pinning,of the new Sib pledges. After a Sib had pinned each pledge the president pinned the traditional rose on her. Each pledge was also given her copy of the Sib creed.

Each pledge was presented with a white Sibylline kerchief, then

the group adjourned to the home of Mrs. Henry Maatman where an extremely enjoyable social time was had, and a delicious lunch was served. New Sib pledges are: Gretchan Bruins, Irene Demian, Marcia De Young, Gloria Diehl, Rachel Dykstra, Marcia Hubers, Ruth Hoffman, Laura Johnson, Ar-lene Eilander, Sue Leestman, Lou-ise Rove, Georgianna Schippers, Cleo Vander Molen, M a r i a n Ter-Borg, Lois VanWyke.

DELPHI

Delphia Welcomed its fourteen new pledges into its warm circle of friendship Friday evening with a full night of fun and entertain-ment. Things got off to a start with a potluck dinner. After par-taking of the wholesome food pro-vided by town Delphians, Delphi members were entertained by the antics of the new pledges who showed surprising talents.

Members showed up en masse at the Holland High-St. Augustine football game with the traditional yellow chrysanthemums pinned on to their coats with the blue rib-bons — denoting Delphia's colors — blue and gold.

Returning to the Delphi room for the last course of their potluck dinner, all members joined into the singing of the sorority and college songs. Delphi pledges are: Norma Albers, Peggy Bakelaar, Mary Ellen Brouwer, Judy Hoffman, Re-gine Jensen, Jereen Rynbrandt, Joan Rypstra, Alma Vander Hill, Jean Verberg, Gertrude Vrede-veld, Shirley Visser, Millie Ver-maire, Marcella Westerman, and Nellie Mae Wezeman.

S O R O S I S

Friday night Sorosis had a short business meeting at 7:00 in the sorority room. At 7:30 everyone welcomed the new Sigma Sigma pledges a f te r they had been pinned by Prexy Millie Scholten.

What's the matter with

Tri-Alpha ?

It's all right!!

What 's all r ight?

TRI-ALPHA!!!

No truer words were ever writ-ten. Proof? Capacity membership and a fine attendance at our regu-lar Friday meetings. With our newly elected president, Richard Hine, officiating, we opened our Tri-Alpha meeting with a gala quarter hour of song. Thereaf ter Alan Staver offered prayer, and as the meeting proceeded the seri-ous and humor papers were read respectively by R o b e r t "Ace" Schuller and Eugene Van Tammel-lan. The highlight of the evening was the rendering of classical and popular music by the accomplished pianist. Miss Betty Van Lente.

As our members are always ready for action, tentative plans have been made for Inter-class six-man touch football games. These games are to be played during the wan-ing hours of an afternoon, prefer-ably 4-() P. M. Fridays. Further notice will be given concerning the same as these plans materialize. Also a committee was appointed and plans are being formulated for initiation of our new members. Watch for evidences of the same!

Our meeting closed with high hopes for a successful, joyous year, and we extend greetings and best wishes to the societies of the femi-nine populus of Hope College.

started the program with "Salu-tations," a bit of verbal welcome and concluded with a few pointers to the freshman on what is ex-pected of their future conduct.

"Inspirat ions" by Doris Fred-ricks was followed by "Glorifica-tion," a very beautifully written character sketch of a girl each Sorosite strives to be.

A newly discovered trio com-posed of Rozanne Atkins, Elaine Bielefeld and Dorothy Atkins gave out with a very good rendition of "The Belts of St. Mary." "Assin-inity" was rendered by Jody (nuff said I.

1 rue to tradition the freshmen pledges had to put on a skit and true to tradition, it was good. Joyce Sibley led in the singing of "The Growth of an Acorn" (never knew it made so much noise). After the vocal introduction actions were put to the words by Carol Jean Her-mance. Talent ran thick and laughter high, especially at the end, when Dorothy Boot as the girl and Mary Lou Williams as a boy met in fond embrace.

"Demitasse" was served by the sophomores (for the last time) during which the pledges were given yellow roses, wooden gold painted Sigma Sigma crescents and the traditional Sigma Sigma hats to be worn for a few weeks.

Finally the whole sorority moved from Voorhees basement to Keef-er's Restaurant where Pepsi Cola was served to all by efficient Sor-osites whereupon a toast was given. Hail to Sorosis. A perfect ending to a perfect day.

Well, Hops University is once more in full swing — and I do mean swing. Isn't it nice to hear music from the Commons Room in pshch classes? . . . The dorm girls like Prof 's classes, too. He keeps them up to date on the menus for the week. Last week he threw in some cooking hints for the ladies and Dick Hine. I line likes lemon with his spinich, but Prof says lemons are high.

And the Koffee Kletz — what an institution. You can have breakfast between classes if you time it right —ask Elsie Parsons . . . Then came Brandli, who had too many classes and had to take his roll with him. The problem was should he take big bites and not so many, or smaller ones and keep his fingers sticky longer? . . . Speaking of apple polishing, who does that slick job on those apples in the Kletz? . . . A great time was had by all during silent period. Some-body drew a chalk line down the middle of the room and one pair of roommates sat back to back at opposite tables.

Our chapel is still drawing a good crowd each morning. Isn't it fun to watch the frosh counting benches and people to find where they sit, and getting mixed up and start ing over a half a dozen times? . . . It was fun when it happened once, but a f te r six freshmen wan-dered up to me and asked, "Where is the making of the western mind ?" I began to wonder whether they were lost, or conducting an inquiring poll.

Just to have a rest from football practice (girls, of course) Jack let les femmes play basketball one day. It was a great game. The gals kept forgett ing who was on which side, but it really didn't matter cause they both used the same bas-ket. After each basket—or maybe it was before — Jack had to un pile the girls, dust them off and let two unfortunates jump for the ball.

Jean de Ruiter made all the points, so each side took turns claiming her. Franny N an Lewen had a good idea. She stood right under the basket and threw the ball s traight up. If it went through, it would come down through, n'est-1 would come back down through, n'est-ce pas? On and on it went, and Pinx had to finally take over, cuz Jack was just standing there holding his sides.

Great stuff, this dorm life. After studying a little, writing a lot of letters, and visiting with my neigh-bors on three sides, I dragged my roommate home to bed. I should have known it couldn't last. Purty soon there was a mighty clang of bells and buzzers simultaneously down the hall, a clatter outside my door and a great shuffling of feet. The realization came — a fire drill I 1 couldn't remember whether you 1

opened the window and put out the light or closed the light and put;

out the window. I wet my towel, the clean one I just got back from the laundry, and dashed into the hall. I was pushed along with the mob and someone said, "Down the fire escape!" so we did. You know the fire escape — you go down and around and come out here. I forgot I was on third floor and when I passed the second floor lights 1 thought I had missed my station, but no — I finally hit bot-tom. Somebody pulled me out, slapped a wet towel across my face and yelled—"No talking" . . . Well, at least it 's over till the next time.

Several old Fraters were home from the service last week. The highlight of their furloughs and 'eaves was undoubtedly that beach party we've heard so much about. Ensign Ken de Groot led the crowd to his favorite spot in the dunes overlooking the beach. Pfc. Harve Buter did the shopping, mostly in his father 's store, and brought forth many of the wartime "cas-ualties" that us civies haven't seen in months. While the gals spread out the lunch the men (!) gathered firewood.

Lt. Don Mulder called Pvt. Gabby

Van Dis to help him break off a dead branch of a tree (not the one that grows in Brooklyn). The next thing anybody knew there was a great crash and a cloud of dust as Gabby. Don and the branch rolled down the dune together. Harve rescued the branch while Mary Liz and Phyl Barense carried the boys back up the hill. Mulder ate the most hot-dogs, but Gabby was par-tial to the pineapple pie . . . Came time to leave. Gabby started down the hill to the car. Ten minutes later Liz started to look for Gabby. Ten more minTites later O'day and Betty 1). started out a f te r Gabby and Liz. That went on for a half an hour and everybody met at the fire again and started out together. Ensign de Groot released the fol-lowing statement for the press, "A good time was had by all; a four-course dinner was served."
