f n FRESHMAN ADDmON Hope College, Holland, Mich., October 24, 1934 Volume XLVIII Number 2 -6. Numerous Alumni Attend Homecoming Activities Last Friday and Saturday was the scene of Hope's annual home- coming, and although the rain rather mussed things up at the football field, the event was a huge success. A parade of floats fiv.m toe dif- •femU fraternitii'; and sororilies, which opened homecomiju.. tool; pace Friday evening. The p.-imdv was headed by Hope's i-ejuv'.-'ia'ci hand. The band was clad in new iniforms—orange sweaters and orange caps. The best floa:, as picked by the judges, was 0 e So- rosis float. It depicted Humpty- Dumpty as Albion, who was going to have a great fall. The Kmei- .-onian fraternity was awarded sec- end place while honorable men-ion was given to the Cosmopolilans. Immediately following the pa- rade, a mass meeting was held in Carnegie gym. President W'ynand Wichers welcomed the alumni back and Coach "Bud" Hinga spoke about the Albion game. A pro- gram. consisting of music ami spe- cial numbers, followed. An out- standing feature was the Brain Trust band, composed of Profes- sors Lampen, Hinkamp, Raymond. McLean. Kleis and Hitter. Il was led by Harold Mclntyre. who im- personated Cab Calloway. His two special numbers "went over big." Following the program, cider and doughnuts were served. Following the Hope game, which was the crowning feature of the two-day event, Kotlie Kletz was held in Voorhees hall. All Hope I students and alumni were cordially | invited. That evening frateinily] ami sorority banquet-; were held throughout the city. Margaret Dregman and John M. Vaiuler Meulen were general chair- men. Assistants were Kenneth Vander V'elde, Jay Bush. Victor Turdo, Dowe Cupery, Dick Smith. James Boter and Calvin Vander We if.

At the extreme end of the table sits the most able chair- man, treasurer and general man- ager. Joe Esther. The outstanding purpose of this house is to teach young men and future ministers the art of dish- washing, dish-breaking and of wait- ing table. They guarantee that home life in the future will be more of a "Home, Sweet Home" due to the cooperative husband. "A Word from the Frosh Prexy" As president of the Freshman Class, I wish to express the general sentiment of the class by saying that we feel it is a privilege and an honor to be able to attend this institution. The great cooperation and interest, which has been displayed by both the faculty and the student body, has made the necessary adjustment to college life one of ease and pleasure. Moreover, they have made us feel that we are an essential part of the college, and that we are entirely welcome to all privileges at our disposal. It has been said that our class has an exceedingly high scholastic rating. The truth of this statement may be questioned by some of the more doubtful upper classmen; therefore we sincerely hope that we can prove our ability by establishing a record at Hope College which will long be remembered. As a class, we pledge ourselves to do everything in our power to promote the welfare and the good name of this institution and to so conduct our lives that no disgrace may be reflected upon this fair school of 0 , 1 r s - DON THOMAS.

Gross Elected Milestone Editor In a special election held by the junior class Tuesday. October 16, Stuart Gross was named editor of the 1935 MILESTONE. He fills the vacancy let by Ralph Danhof, editor-elect, who is attending the University of Michigan this year. The new editor announces his staff as follows: Deon Dekker, bus- i n e s s manager; Margret Van Raalte, assistant editor; Milton Spaan, assistant business manager; Catherine Haig, humor editor; Ken- neth Vander Velde, athletics editor; Ruth Burkett, Society editor; Mar- gret Moody, freshman editor; Rich- ard Smith, sophomore editor; Mina Becker, junior editor; and Marga- ret Rottschaefer, senior editor. Professor Deckard Ritter is the fa- culty adviser. The MILESTONE, an annual publication at Hope, will be printed in the latter part of May, 1935. At the head of last Friday night's parade was the Hope col- lege band, now n u m b e r i n g •'.() mem- bers, attired in uniforms for the first time in the hi-tory of the col- lege. The new uniforms are com- posed of orange and blue overseas caps, orange -weaters and blue pants or skirts. At the head proudly strutted "Bill" Heeringa. late of Holland hi^li school, who will prove a real "turkey" after more practice. Because of the rain Saturday the band did not perform on the field during the halves. Prof. W. Cur- tis Snow has drilled hi.- charges dilligently and they can form, among other maneuvers, a large block "H." With continued impetus and sup- port and a year's work, Hope col- lege will have a band worthy of the college and among the be-i in the smaller Michigan colleges. "The Tot' That Failed" One day last week the irresistible met a supposedly immovable object with results altogether disastrous to the immovable — but desir- ably so. The freshmen, in class assembled, decided to come to school the day after next minus the green. But our good College Pilot saw rocks and shoals ahead, and so to Prexy fell the rather delicate task of persuading them not to. With diplomatic finesse he went at it, and after that talk who of the frosh wanted to remain immovable, anyway? But suppose some of the fraternity called upper classmen had as- sumed the role of the irresistible. Meine gute Freunden. the class of '38 would have been for all succeeding freshman generations the inspir- ing example to resistance of upper class oppression. The Faculty in Chapel An ever interesting sight is the daily entry of the faculty into chapel at precisely 7:.)9 A.M. A happy, smiling, chatty group they are. Dost ever see them sober? They spread a contagious something that is reflected in the cheerful atmosphere pervading the campus all year round. But the freshman, looking at the profs filing in. sees in them the men and women who will provide him. for the greater part, with a college education. Their thoughts, transmitted to the student, will largely constitute his store of learning: will mould his character; will influence his views on life about him. Let us appreciate the faculty.

To the Rescue!

Appreciation

For the first t ime in the history of our nation, the government is making an organized effort to aid individuals to fu r the r their educa-tion. Through the Federal Emer-gency Relief Act, thousands of stu-dents of college age are enabled to at tend school when otherwise they might be walking our city s treets , just ordinary members of our vast army of unemployed. The Congress of the United Sta tes passed this vital legislation believing tha t the major i ty of American youth would be t ru th fu l in s ta t ing their financial condition when applying for aid. It seems a disgrace to the integri ty of the "s tudent g roup" when the

adminis t ra tor of the FERA at the University of Michigan must warn

of "Chiselers" and dishonest state-ments in reference to this well-in-tended relief measure. Undoubtedly, the warning of the adminis t ra tor was necessary, otherwise these s ta tements would never have been uttered. It is a sad s ta te of affai rs indeed when the very group of in-dividuals who have been most in-sistent that our government is composed of g r a f t i n g politicians, need to be watched very carefully so that the ones who really need this aid will not be robbed by those who are just out to get all they

can. We sincerely hope that the stu-

dents at Hope College are Chris-tian enough to s ta te the facts t ru th-fully and to appreciate what is be-ing done for them, ra ther than mis-represent their financial situation and "bite the very hand that is feeding them."

"Dutch-Americans"

The newcomer at Hope cannot but be impressed by the Dutch at-mosphere character iz ing the city and the school. It is found in the names of people and places, in por-t ra i ts of the fo re fa the r s , in the mother tongue t ha t is yet spoken by many. These are all stimuli t ha t should cause us to reflect on our common her i tage , and to say with every drop of Dutch blood tha t Theodore Roosevelt, "I am proud of

or four years at the most. School spirit was not talked of then ; there was no necessity. The whole school radiated it; it was a thing taken for granted—like breathing. It was a dominat ing force in Hope college and the old t radi t ions of these cor-ridors were a fitting set t ing for it, a living, pulsat ing force t ha t am-plified and illuminated the smiles and laughter so willingly given.

Now it is breathing like a wound-ed soldier, gasping at t imes, then

; almost s topping. We must not let it die; it is much too precious! Stop

I—it isn't much effor t—and give it the aid it needs. Don't let it die! For if you do, you are not only depriving yourself of a th ing of great value, but also you a re steal-ing from the s tudents who, in days to come, will be t reading the same

' floors, reading the same books, seeking the same knowledge as you are today. If you have the supreme indifference to s tand and watt'h \he last breath depart front bbe- arHijjg lungs of the spirit that once was so cherished, then there is no possible chance of its being brought back

i to life.

It means such a little effort and i co-operation on your par t today, and it will be one of the greatest feelings in the world when you later

, look back upon your college school days and say, "Those were among the happies t hours of my life!" Come! Let 's pick up our wounded

• pal and march forward with the NRA of Hope College.

o A large group of new girls joined

Y.W. Tuesday evening, October 16. Each new girl, dressed in white, lit her candle as a pledge to Y.W. President Sarah Sterken otfered a challenge to the new members, which was accepted by Es the r Hin-kamp. Miss Laura Boyd talked on "Possess ing Your Possessions," in which she brought out t h a t every-thing is yours if you budget your t ime correctly. Following th is in-spir ing address the mee t ing ended by s inging "Following the Gleam."

A L E T H E A

Every new girl reported having a glorious t ime a t the Alethean re-ception fo r new gir ls a t Voorhees hall, Tuesday evening, October 18. Following get t ing acquainted by

o SOROSIS

Fr iesma and Judge Tucker did their best but weren ' t quite as long winded, and the judge certainly knew the good jokes. The anti-climax of the s t a g was a short talk by "Cur ly" Wiergink, who gave an oration on being serious. The Cos-mopolitans journeyed back to the house to listen to Judge Tucker and others shout the i r—ah—usual line.

o E M E R S O N I A N

SIBYLLINE

The Sibs and the i r a lumnae en-joyed a buffet supper Sa turday eve-ning in their room in Voorhees Hall. Miss Gene Van Kolken fur -nished the music for the evening. Af t e r a social hour the group at-tended "The Count of Monte Cristo."

COSMOPOLITAN

In accordance with the homecom-ing this past week-end, the Cos-mopolitan society had no regular meeting but in its place were to be found the "Beef T r u s t " baby and the Albion giant parked on the roof of the f r a t e rn i t y house.

The baby beef was hatched and reared in the back yard of the Cosmos house, but alas, the forces of na ture conquered him, and he went down in defea t , and his spirit marches on, for Hope won.

The following night found Cos-mos brothers in the Hope church par lors with the cus tomary stag. Dr. J. R. Mulder gave an enter-ta ining and instructive address , his topic being, " I s the Best Worth W h i l e ? " The alumni spoke a few words about the na tu ra l born ora-tors in the personage of Professor Thomas E. Welmers, who spoke f o r about twenty minutes . Ha r ry

The twenty-f i f th anniversary din-ner of the Knickerbocker f r a t e rn i ty , with about 70 men in a t tendance, was held in the main dining room of the Warm Friend tavern Satur-day night . In spite of the rain, ex t ra places had to be set for those who did not ar r ive in t ime for the first rush for the tables. The ban-quet could be compared to a revival meeting—a revival of the memories of the days when the society was yet in its infancy, for which the alumni were largely responsible.

President Wynand Wichers, as guest speaker of the evening, wel-comed the alumni and commended them for the par t which the or-ganization has been able to play on the campus. Marc Brouwer, president of the society, was toast-master , introducing the speakers in a very original manner . Rev. Van-den Berg of Zeeland, who was a char ter member of the society, re-lated in a very interest ing way some of the experiences which the founders went through. Don Drop-

pers offered a piano solo, Rach-maninoff 's "Pre lude" as a musical interlude. Then Rev. Bernie Mulder, '19, of Grand Rapids, expressed in

a short talk the thought that the society should be a large factor in building up the s tudent ' s character . Jack " H a r p e r " Vander Meulen next played "Moment Musicale" on his violin, accompanied by Don Drop-pers. He played "Poor Litt le Flow-e r " as an encore. As the last speaker, Rev. Fred Wyngarden of the clas of '31, enter ta ined and in-spired the group with a talk ful l of original wit and thought .

Brief plans f o r the organization of an active A l jmn i Association were outlined and officers were elected unanimously. Rev. Vanden Berg, president; Dan Ten Cate, vice president ; Waddy Spoelstra, secre tary ; and Bill Heyns, t reas-urer.

Among the alumni present were Rev. Vanden Berg, Rev. Bernie Mulder, Rev. Vander Werf , Rev. Wyngarden, Dan Ten Cate , Waddy Spoelstra, A r t Nienhuis, Corny Roos, Tony Den Uyl, Russel Smith,

44FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF A FRESHMAN"

By Karl Schneeman

I have seen Voorhees hall and a thousand o ther prisons filled with meek f reshmen, blessed f reshmen . . . . I have seen the f r e shmen wretched under a r igorous servi tude! . . . I have seen seniors in the guises of f r iendly a t t i tudes , sacrificing the i r self-esteem, the i r very

souls, yea even the i r honor, to seduce a too credulous f r e s h m a n body into the i r respective " l i t e r a ry" societies. . . . I have seen t he conceit of many a f r e s h m a n changed overnight to indignation, ha t red , and in-voluntary servitude. . . . I have seen the sanct i ty of many a f r e s h m a n room violated in the most in teres t ing way. . . .

I have seen the blackest of all possible acts, which the wa te r s of Black river could scarcely blemish, and which poster i ty will be scarcely able to believe . . . bodies s tamped with the seal of unapproving upper-classmen and lef t to wend their weary way th rough the fo res t s near Tunnel beach. . . . 1 have seen the unknown raised to the highest rank. . . . I have seen many colored displays . . . red in room 16 of Van

Vleck Hall . . . an occasional insignificance of green des t roying the beauty of the campus — and much black upon various members of the f reshman class a f t e r a certain swimming meet . . . .

Ah! Gentle readers , I have seen innumerable s t r ange s ights . . . . Fa rmer s t ry ing to sell horse meat to Joe Es the r . . . . The athletic ability of the f r e shmen seriously questioned by skeptic sophomores. . . . Harold Livingston, New York's g i f t to Hope, going in fo r music in a big way . . . successful peti t ioning of Voorhees t enan t s fo r more freedom of assembly! . . . "S tub" Boven's increasing fondness fo r a little town by the lame of Flushing. . . . Bet ty Goehner 's intense in-terest in a town by the name of Holland and more especially in lines-men . . . s tudents boring each other with recitals of the vir tues, and

vice versa, of their schedules . . . and a cer tain young man dis turbing Van Vleckites with his ra ther loud and non-technical advice to the foot-ball team. . . .

I have seen the bony legs of a few of our braver males chasing each other through the s t ree ts of Holland. . . . I have seen f reshmen not yet awakened to the fac t that they were f r e s h m e n ; but comforted in their sleepless sleep by the spectacle of senior 's wondering how and

if and why they became seniors. . . . I have seen a splendid political machine in action. . . .

HOMECOMING RECORD

Hope's 1934 football team did i ts p a r t in mak ing this year 's home-coming a success when they defeated a fighting but outplayed Albion college eleven by a score of 13 to 2 at Riverview P a r k Sa tu rday . Hope scored its two touchdowns in the first and fou r th periods. Albion's sa fe ty came in the first period. As a resul t of his team's victory, Coach " B u d " Hinga kept his record of not having lost a homecoming game since he came to Hope in 1931.

Before the first qua r t e r was half over, Hope had crossed its oppon- cept Don Te ent ' s goal line. A f t e r the first ex- him with a change of pun t s of the game, coach passes fai led " B u d " Hinga ' s boys had possession took the ball

of the ball on the 50-yard line.

J a p i n g a faded back and threw a long pass to Leestma, who on Al-

bion's 15-yard line caught the pass, was tackled and dropped the ball. Kors tan je recovered for Hope. On the four th play, De Weerd took the ball over f rom the 6-yard line. The

kick f rom placement was wide.

Albion did not seem to be dis-hear tened by Hope's touchdown, however, fo r they began a drive t ha t indirect ly resulted in a sa fe ty and almost a touchdown. Return-ing Hope's kickoff to their own 35-

yard m a r k e r , they made it a first down a f t e r a series of line plays on Hope's 46-yard line. On the next play, an Albion back went off

the s tage fo r the Methodists ' lone two points of the game. On an a t tempted kick, the sl ippery ball got away f rom Jap inga , who re-covered and was tackled in his own end zone. The half ended with the score 6 to 2 in Hope's favor .

The locals, led by "Chink" Rob-bert , began an offensive th rea t late in the third period which led up

to their second score. From Al-bion's 8-yard line, Te Roller cir-cled left end fo r a touchdown and then kicked squarely between the

upr igh t s for the ex t ra point. TIk-f e a t u r e play of the second half was a completed 45-yard pass

f rom J a p i n g a to Kors tan je .

It would be hard to pick an in-dividual s t a r of the game for Hop:;. Eve ry member of the backfield per formed very well and Albion, a f t e r the first quar te r , made very few yards through the Hope line.

Many Hope subst i tu tes got a chance to play in the annual classic du r ing the closing minutes of the game. Smith and Allman did most of the ball c a r ry ing for Albion.

Hope made eight first downs to Albion's five, but drew the ma jo r i t y of penalties.

G. R. Junior Draws with Hope Gridmen in R o u g h Contest SEVEN-YEAR RECORD IS

KEPT INTACT BY THE HINGAMEN

The Hope gridders played a s t rong Grand Rapids Junior Col-lege team to a scoreless tie at Riverview park o n ' O c t . 13 in a non-conference game.

The Orange and Blue eleven kept Hope's record of not having been defeated by the Grand Rapids team in seven years clean, when a drive by the Bosmen was halted one foot short of the final str ipe in the first period. In the four th quar te r , the Hingamen twice took the pigskin within the 10-yard line, but could not cross the double line.

Early in the first quar te r , by a 17-yard punt return by TeRoller and a few line plays, Hope had the ball on the 15-yard str ipe, but La-banowski, s t a r Junior halfback, in-tercepted a pass by TeRoller on the goal line and raced G7 yards up the sideline before he was brought

down on the Hope 33. At this point Junior began some offensive play themselves, and gained two suc-cessive first downs, the second on the 10-yard stripe, f rom where three plays took it to the 1-foot line. But on the next and fourth down, Labanowski a t t empted to go through Klomparens and Buys, hut the big boys piled him up, before he could make a counter.

One of the fea tures of the ball game was a kick by Fred Jap-pinga, which advanced the ball 70

The Hope grid team this Sa tu r -day takes on the Kazoo college eleven a t Riverview park in wha t will be a crucial bat t le in the M.I.A.A, race.

The celery city eleven has a fas t backfield behind a powerful line, but they will meet Coach Hinga 's squad on nearly an even basis a f t -er the show of improvement by the Dutchmen in the las t few games. The Kalamazoo backs in-clude Survilla, al l -s tate qua r t e r back a t Kazoo Central High school, and Kriekard, f leet-footed runner , who got his prep experience a t the same school. The fullback position is held by Finley, who was on the all-city honor team in Chicago. However, it is expected these ball to ters will encounter some opposi-tion f rom the Orange and Blue line, which appeared as a tower of s t r eng th in the homecoming en-

gagement with Albion. In tha t game. Ken Vander Velde turned in a spectacular game, while Gordon Kors tan je shone as a defensive s tar In his end position.

In games with Alma, the two teams showed up about the same and the game Sa turday should prove to be a close battle, while rec-ords in other games point to the same thing.

This is a crucial game in the M.I.A.A. race in tha t it is practi-cally necessary for both teams to gain the victory in order to stay
