Evening At 7:30 On October 15, students through-

The Senior Girls' Association, more popularly called the S.G.A., is a thing of the present. At a

During all of these years, and even at -the present time, his literary works have been studied and en-joyed because of their beautiful form and rich content. His first important productions were the "Eclogues," a group of poems in which he used a pastoral setting for the discussion of current prob-lems in which he was so keenly in-terested. Influenced by the simpli-city and deep moral tone of his boyhood home, Vergil next turned his attention to the writing of the "Georgics" which he hoped would revive the old simpler life among the Roman people by a reawaken-ing of interest in agriculture; this proved to be his most finished pro-duction. Of all of Vergil's writings the best known to the modem stu-dent is the great epic of all time—

at Voorhees Hall, the female con-tingent of the Senior class for-mally organized. Lady Grace Mas-selink was chosen as President and the other office, that of Secretary- j * Treasurer, will be taken by Esther [ * Mulder. ;

In accordance with what has be-1 * come an unusual custom, the first j =» meeting was called by Mrs. Durfee and she proved to be an excellent hostess. She told of the rules of the S.G.A. and then in an informal manner went on to discuss the pro-fessions, teaching and otherwise, which the Senior girls could enter next year. She cited several exam-ples of Hope College girls who had made successes in the different lines and told many interesting ex-periences they had had.

The first S.G.A. was held in 1!>22.

Y.M. AND Y.W. HAVE JOINT M E E T I N G

Last night was a banner night for the Christian or-ganizations on the campus. The Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W. C.A. met in a joint meeting. The leader of the evening was Dr. Van Kersen, Secre-tary of the Missionary Board of the Reformed Church.

Mr. Van Kersen showed the groups the pictures he took while on his recent trip to the mission fields under the supervision of the Re-formed denomination.

Both groups are making final preparations for the an-nual week of prayer which will be held from November 2-7, with Dr. Paul Harrison as guest speaker.

Although the dying I even before Mrs. Durfee hinted the Vergil considered it as but a poor copy of the idea constructed in his unity of purpose,^ and its loftiness mind, its beauty expression, its of ideal combine to form for most readers a very nearly perfect whole. This fascinating story of Rome's development is not a mere record of events; it is rather a search for the essence of Rome's past and present glory and a prophecy for future glory.

SON SUPERIOR IN THEIR LINES

Wednesday morning all the so-rorities arose before breakfast and gathered at the Green Mill Cafe for a contest in toast eating and coffee drinking. Having come to the conclusion that Edith Dresher was toast eating champion and Helen Johnson the best coffee drinker, the Sororities hurried off for Chapel. The arrangements for the breakfast were in charge of Grace Hudson.

There has been some talk of late about changing the name of Hope Memorial Chapel to the Edward 1). Dimnent Memorial Chapel. There could be no more fitting me-morial to a man who has served Hope college untiringly for twelve years as president and who himself directed the building of the chapel.

The majestic $400,000 chapel which stands on Hope's campus speaks of one of the greatest ac-complishments of our retiring pres-ident. For five years Dr. Dimnent planned and worked for a new chapel all of the time trying to se-cure- enough funds to erect the building. Now that the debt on the chapel has been cleared he feels that the task he has set out to do has been completed.

1 But the building of the new chapel was only one of the many

I things he did for his alma mater. i In his twelve years as president he strengthened the college scholas-

jtic standing until Hope's courses now meet with all college require-ments. The large increase in the number of students attending Hope college is also attributed to his fa i thfu l direction.

Because of his love for the insti-tution he served, Dr. Dimnent through returns from his salary and personal gif ts has given t W -college over $100,000.

To the student body he __ . 1 i d e d . college president. He has a i o t h e r great men of our country.

keen understanding of youth and a good sense of humor. His fluent speech and large knowledge of af-fairs of the world have made him a capable leader at all college meet-ings and chapel services.

The members of the facutly know him as an extremely energetic man, well informed in a)l affairs and one who has worked long and hard for the interest of Hope college.

Dr. Dimnent was born at Chi-cago, Illinois, in 1876. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree at .Hope in 1806 and then attended the University of Chicago and later the Western Theological Seminary. In 1919 he received a Doctor of Liter-ature degree.

In 1898 he begun as professor in Greek and economics a t Hope col-lege and still is in charge of the economics department. In 1918 he was elected president of the insti-tution.

In the business world he has held high executive positions such as the vice presidency of the First State Bank, presidency of the Thompson Furni ture Company and director-ships in several other corporations.

Not only do the fr iends of Hope college and the students past and present consider Dr; Dimnent a

... man of unusual ability, but he has ^lis place in the annals of "Who's

Alma took advantage of a leth-argic Hope s tar t last Saturday and continued on its way toward an-other M. I. A. A. championship. It was a cold, bitter day with inter-mittent snowstorms and Alma did its heaviest scoring before Hope was warmed up. The margin of victory was run up in the first quarter, with Alma scoring two touchdowns.

At the start of the game Hope chose to kick off with the wind. Alma returned to its 35 yard line. Three plays directly through the Hope line were good for two first downs to Hope's 34 yard marker. Then Borton, on a fake, sneaked through the cold players, stiff-armed safety-man Slyter and ran across for a touchdown. Hope was off-side on the try for extra point

New Hopeites On Freshman Class Roll Number 138

NINE STATES AND THREE FOREIGN COUNTRIES ARE

REPRESENTED

The Freshman Class of 1930-31 has one hundred thirty-eight mem-bers. The boys again exceed the girls by twenty.

Although as a rule students are not very eager to attend "home town" colleges almost fifty per cent of the freshman class comes from Holland, sixty-one being enrolled.

Fourteen of the class hail from the large metropolis of Zeeland. From other towns in Michigan, twenty-one more are with us.

Our next largest addition comes from the state of New York which adds seventeen to the handsome class.

Illinois has seven new ones a t Hope with Wisconsin close behind, sending six. We have two f rom Pennsylvania and Iowa and Minne-sota, Ohio, Arkansas, China, Japan, and Korea each one.

Nine states and three foreign countries a re represented amonrj those wearing the green this year.

The final plans for the third an-nual homecoming have been com-pleted. The big parade at seven-thirty Friday, the 24th, opens the activities. There will be a great dis-play of originality and color. The men's fraternities and the various organizations will display a great amount of individuality in design and treatment of color in the deco-ration of their houses and floats. To the best float a prize will be given. The parade will assemble on Twelfth street, near College avenue, and af ter parading through the main streets of town will wend its way to Carnegie Gymnasium, where a huge mass meeting will take place. There has been devised an entirely new mode of leading the mass cheering and . singing. Even glee club members will for-get themselves. Following a short program which will be a rit>t of fun and laughter, the student body will gather around a bonfire, co l - -lected by Frosh. More cheering and pep talks will be given by the fire-side to prepare . f o r Saturday's game.

At two-thirty the Hope team meets Olivet. % Everyone will be there with canes, colors and pen-nants. After the game the alumnae, student body and guests are in-vited to a coffee "klutch," to be held at Voorhees Hall. Informality in dress is the order of the "klutch.".

Sunday afternoon at four o'clock a special vesper service will be rendered by Professor Snow, as-sisted by organ students and the chapel choir. The choir of seventy-two voices will offer a number.

Reporter Finds The Freshmen

Happy At Hope ARE IMPRESSED WITH KIND

CONSIDERATION SHOWN BY ALL

Freshmen are reputed to be green, but the class of 1934 has an abundance of red. Here is what some of our Titian-haired frosh think of Hope.

"I like Hope especially for the moral and spiritual atmosphere that pervades the school. There is a chance for success a t a smaller college which there would never be at a big one—this may mean the difference between success and fail-ure in later life."—Melvin F. Dole.

"Education, religion, and ath-letics are combined to make Hope the best all-round college for a freshman."—William Heyns.

"Hope College in my opinion is one of the finest in the middle wes t It seems to excell in every branch except athletics. I am very glad to be a student here.**—Robert Kruizenga.

Hope college has again reached that place in her for-ward march where a definite advance is necessary. We have halted long, enough to endure the inconveniences of a book store that has no vital connec-tion with the campus. Twice a year we experience a period of confusion, and of long, un-necessary waiting. Also, our students find it impossible to effectively trade used texts.

We have seen other colleges advanced so f a r that they only sell the new and us books required in the courses, but they also publish them. They have established book stores on the campus that are still selling twenty per cent below retail prices. They also operate an effective used book counter where old books are brought at their actual value and sold at cost. This elimin-ates harboring costly books that are no longer of value for reference.

In a similar way, because of special prices offered to book stores, Hope College also can save her students hundreds of dollars annually. Incidentally, the period of confusion can thus be shortened at least a week. With this system, each department would send the list of books to be used by it, the following year, to the teacher or upper classman in charge of the store. A dupli-cate list would then be posted in Graves' Library during the registration week. The quan-tity of books to be bought could be easily estimated as at present, or by tentative spring registration. Thus, the north reading room would provide an ideal place to deposit old books and buy others. The col-lege would suffer no financial

Dorian A very amusing program called

"This and That" was given by the Dorian Society last Friday night. Edith Cunnigan gave a short read-ing on "being skeert." This was followed by a musical skit, "Three Old Maids of Lea," in which Alma Plakke, Catherine Nettinga and Gerlrude Korver took part. That— was a play caled "Big Business," which was very well given by Hen-rietta Lamet as the big business man—Kathryn Ives as the modern flapper secretary and Margarite Rottschaffer as the telephone man.

The society decided on having a "pot luck" for the alumnae the Friday of Homecoming. Special in-vitation is given to all the alumnae to sign their names in the society room Friday afternoon and then stay fo<: supper.

and Alma, the two best teams in the circuit. The defensive play has not been up to standard, but the boys have had numerous in jur ies tha t continue to change the lineup.

Coach Jack Schouten is sending the fellows through tough drills this week, both physically and mentally, and the homecoming crowd will be proud when it sees the eleven that gave the two con-

ference favorites tough battles.

The lineup fo r the game wil not be known until Saturday. Here's an estimate tha t may be accurate: End^, G. Wiegerink and Meengs; tackles, Wyngarden and Zwemer; guards, Norlin and Painter ; center, Brunsen; quarterback, Dal man; halfbacks, Fox and Slighter; full-back, Tysse. Others t h a t may s ta r t or will get into the game are Beav-er, Juis t , Leenhouts, Frisema, Pol-ing, Van Haitsma and Costing.

him as a master-poet. So dextrous was his use of similes and so beau-tiful are his word-pictures that, of the many poets who have tried to copy him, few have succeeded in even approaching his greatness.

Greatly as we admire his poetry, the thoughtful reader understands that it was only Vergil's means to-ward the attainment of a higher goal—the revival of such ideals and enthusiasm as would restore Rome to her rightful place. He threw his very soul into winning the people's moral support of Emperor Augus-tus' reconstruction policy; to bring back a condition of peace and se-curity a f t e r the horrible conflicts that had been tearing Rome, to re-

A

JUNIOR'S DREAM

I lay me down in sweet content

To catch up on my sleep.

But alas, alack, and woe is me.

The night-mare did I reap.

F i r s t came monstrous nurones With axones.and dendrites,

Sticking out like tentacles With teeth all set to bite.

I trudged in a convolution Through matter white and gray

Till a speeding nerve sensation Made me common clay.

I was crushed by the bony hammer And drowned in the Cochliar goo,

I was speared by a hairlike projec-tion.

And came out looking like glue.

I got lost in the Foevian blind spot And slid down the optical n®Ve.

The jelly-like humour engulfecHne, While the lens bent me into a

curve.

I awoke in a cold perspiration. Trembling in every branch

(meaning limb) I cursed psychological data,

And wished I had taken up French!

A few of the girls on the campus were asked during the course of the week what they were not ih-terested in. Here are some of them: Mysterious emeralds that have caused trouble to everyone who has owned them — diamonds in the rough — Welch rarebit and new fangled dances. Furlined over-coats — mergers — the stock mar-ket — divorces — and more intri-cate publicity stunts. Motorcycle policemen — herring — dream analysis — subtle forms of flat-tery — a foreigner's impressions of New York's skyline — other peoples' ideas on what is a funny thing to write about.

. The College High School debaters a re working hard these days get-ting ready for the heavy debating season tha t is ahead. The question chosen for debate this year is one of great popular interest , which spurs the students on to get as well

1 prepared as they possibly can. The question is: "Resolved, that chain grocery stores are detrimental to the state."

This is the third consecutive year the high school has had member-ship in the Michigan High School Debating League. In the other two years the school has made a credit-able showing but i t has ambitions of doing even better in the present season.

The Debating League has changed its rulei in one important respect to help the smaller schools.

This year there will be two classes, the one for the schools with an en-rollment under three hundred and the other for those schools with an enrollments in excess of that num-ber. This undoubtedly puts compe-tition on a much fa i rer basis and assures us of an interesting year of debate.

The College High School team boasts two veteran debaters in Henry Kuizenga and Richard De Witt, both from the Senior class. Kuizenga besides having debated two years has also distinguished himself as an orator. The third member of the team is William Welmers of the Junior class, a new debater but one who is bound to add strength to the team. Besides these regulars fchere are others who can be called upon on a min-ute's notice to act as substitutes.

The team is being coached by Mr. Clarence De Graaf, who is at the head of the English department in the high school. Mr. De Graaf has himself done considerable debating and has had good success as a coach. Under his direction the team has been working very hard, leav-ing no stone unturned in their at-tempt to collect all the information they can. This means not only do-ing a lot of reading but also inter-viewing many people who have something to contribute from their experience with this very vital problem.

The first debate will take place on November 7. The schedule has been arranged so that the home team will always defend the affirm-ative side of the question, which means they will defend the cause of the independent merchants. This is a real live question for debate.

one which has the support of both the independentv ' merchants and the chain stores. We are looking for large audiences this year and are certain the team will give a good account of itself in each con-test.

The Student Volunteers were happy to have as their speaker the college president, Dr. Dimnent. The devotional period was conducted by Alva Ebbers, who read tha t portion of- Scripture dealing with Paul 's

. conversion and his missionary achievements. This selection was very appropriate to Dr. Dimnent's message. .

Dr. Dimnent's discourse was cen-tered about Paul 's statement of conviction. "For me to live is Christ." Like 'need that not only any CHRISTIAN make this the zeal of his or her life but t h a t ANY Christian do so, was greatly stressed.

Dr. Dimnent contrasted the note of uncertainty in the present period in every field, including literature, ivith the note of certainty in the Bible. This note justifies the calling of the volunteers.

Dr. Paul W. Harrison, missionary

to Arabia, who is a t home on fu r -

lough will be the speaker at the Anr

nual Prayer Week at Hope Col-lege this year, the week beginning Sunday, November 2, and^continu-ing through to Friday, November 7.

Dr. Harrison, well known for having .written the book, "The Arab a t Home," has been a missionary for the Trinity Reformed Church at Plainfield, N. J., for the past twenty years. The book, which was published in 1924 af ter Dr. Harri-son had been in Arabia for 12 years, gives a true picture of the Arabians and the wonderful work that the missionaries are carrying on in their country. Dr. Harrison is connected with a hospital a t Muttreh, near Muscat.

Each day at 11 o'clock Dr. Har-rison will deliver an address to the student body. These meetings will be held in the main auditorium of the Memorial Chapel. There will be special music on the Chapel or-gan, played by Prof. W. Curtis Snow and one of the ordained f a -culty members will lead the devo-tions on each morning except Thursday, a t which time the presi-dents of the Young People's Chris-tian Associations, Anne Koeman, and Clarence Becker, will lead the devotions.

In the afternoons from 2 until 4 o'clock during Prayer Week, any students who so desire may have private conferences with Dr. Har-rison.

The opening meeting of Prayer Week will be held in the Chapel at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, November 2. On Monday and Tuesday evenings the prayer groups which meet will be led by students. On Wednesday evening one of the professors of the college will lead the groups. The Thursday evening meeting of

Prayer Week will be the only eve-

ning service in which Dr. Harrison

will speak, and his address prom-

ises to be especially good. Af te r

this meeting a period of discussion

will follow, at which time Dr. Har-

rison will answer questions that the

students may put to him. All the upper classmen who have

experienced a Prayer Week a t Hope know the wonderful benefit derived from these inspirational services and Are looking forward to the event with g rea t enthusiasm.

and Alma made it 7 to 0. Alma re-ceived again and when Hope's line sitffened Brown tossed to Gussin for a 21 yard gain to Hope's 20 yard line. Brown and Barton then tore off tackle and through center till Brown went over for their second touchdown. Hope was again offside on the t ry for extra point and the score was 14 to 0.

Hope braced in the second quar-ter when Schouten sent three line substi tutes into the f ray. "Louie" Meengs, a t Beaver's end, proved especially adept a t spilling at-tempted end runs, and the entire line began charging to muss up Alma plays behind the scrimmage line. Intercepted passes and the recovery of two Alma fumbles help-ed to give Hope the edge in the play of this period.

Hope started the second half with a rush, Dalman's passes to Wieger-ink and Slyter being unusually suc-cessful. It looked like a Hope touchdown, but an intercepted pass halted the march and the period ended with Alma in possession of the ball, deep in their own terri-tory. An exchange of punts nette< Alma about 30 yards as Hope had to punt into the wind which by this time was a gale. Things looked bad when suddendly Dalman inter-cepted a pass and returned to 35 yards to Alma's 25 yard line. A pass, Dalman to Slyter, was good for a " f i rs t" on Alma's 11 yard marker. Three line plays failed to bring first down and Dalman pass-ed to Tysse who received the pig-skin in the end zone. Norlin's drop-kick for extra point was wide, and the score was Alma 14, Hope 6.

In the^ closing minutes of play, great n m s by Brown and Barton and a pass Brown to Gussin re-sulted in another Alma score. Bar-ton scoring his second. Hope again was off-side and an at tempted pass for ex t ra point was unnecessary. The game ended a moment later. The final score was Alma 21, Hope 6. ,

Dalman was the offensive s t a r while Wyngarden and Brunson were the chief bruisers on defense. Despite high winds and snow, pass-es were unusually successfu l The
