CAROL LATHAM and Tim Van Dam rehearse 'A Christmas Carol.' The play begins Friday in the DeWitt Cultural Center theater.

'Christmas Carol' opens Friday in DCC theatre

An adapta t ion of Charles Dick-ens' A Christmas Carol will debu t the main theater in the new De-Witt Cultural Center .

The first of nine pe r fo rmances of the classic tale will be Friday at 8 p .m. Evening pe r fo rmances are also scheduled for Sa turday and Dec. 15-18. There will be a 10 :30 a .m. pe r fo rmance on Sa turday and 2 p .m. mat inees on Sa turday and Dec. 18.

The adap ta t ion was wri t ten by Frederick Gaines, artist-in-resi-dence at Hope this semester . Gaines wrote the play A Little Season which was presented in the s tudio theater of the DeWitt Cen-ter earlier this fall.

Playing the lead role of Scrooge will be guest artist T o m V. Tammi , a professional ac tor f rom New York. T a m m i received his theatr ical t raining at the Bris-tol Old Vic Thea te r in England. He has appeared at the T y r o n e Guthr ie Thea te r in Minneapolis, the New Orleans Reper to ry The-ater, the American Conserva tory Thea ter , S tudio Arena in Buf fa lo and the Bristol Old Vic C o m p a n y .

He appeared in the Broadway produc t ion of A Patriot for Me by John Osborn, with Maximillian Schell. Of f -b roadway he appeared as Hastings in Oliver Goldsmi th ' s She Stoops to Conquer. He re-cently appeared in Assassination, 1865 at the G o o d m a n Theater in Chicago. He has also appeared on NBC's "Hidden F a c e s " series.

Cos tumes for the p roduc t ion , which includes a cast of 40 , have been designed by David Chappel l . Chappell , fo rmer ly a resident of Fennville, has just comple t ed three years as head c o s t u m e de-signer for the College of the Arts at Ohio State University.

He has taught at the Detroi t Ins t i tu te of Art , has worked with the S t ra t fo rd Ontar io c o m p a n y and recently designed the pre-miere p roduc t ion of the J e r o m e Lawrence, Rober t E. Lee play The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail.

Tickets for the p roduc t ions may be reserved by calling the theater depa r tmen t , 392 -5111 , ext . 2248. Tickets will cost $1 for s tudents .

The Campus Life Board Wed-nesday ex tended key privileges to first semester f reshman women and abolished a provision requir-ing coeds under age 21 to obta in parental permission before receiv-ing key privileges.

THE DECISION, which will become effect ive at the beginning of the spring semester , represents an a t t e m p t to make key regula-tions more consistent with the new major i ty age.

The original proposal to revise key regulations was presented to the CLB by Dean of S tuden t s Robert DeYoung and Assistant Dean of S tuden t s Nona Kipp. It would simply have abolished the parental permission requ i rement wi thou t ex tending the key privi-lege to f reshman women .

DR. DAVID Marker, associate professor of physics, moved that the proposal be altered so as to give key privileges to all w o m e n s tudents . The revised proposal was passed.

Explaining the reasoning be-hind the original proposal , De-Young said that it would be "in-a p p r o p r i a t e " for 18-year-old co-eds who were legal adul ts to be required to secure parenta l per-mission in order to get keys.

MISS KIPP SAID Fr iday that she was not surprised that the

CLB revises key system board passed a more generous proposal than the one she and DeYoung au thored . She indicated that "there were some s tuden t s working for the extension of key privileges b e fo re . "

DeYoung expressed concern over the possibility of some par-ents ob jec t ing to the change in key regulat ions. "I still d o n ' t know h o w we'll deal with parents who say 'we want those (dormi-tory) hours'."

IN CONNECTION with the ex-tension of key privileges, Wednes-day's meet ing occasioned pro-longed discussion on how s tudent responsibility can best be fos-tered. The board finally decided to establish a sub-commit tee t o determine effect ive means for en-couraging s tudent responsibil i ty.

The new commi t t ee has not yet been named, nor have its members been appoin ted . ASSISTANT DEAN NONA KIPP

Pollock suit may end; College raises offer

Fees hike probable for 72-75 says vice president Handlogten

T h e cost of a t t end ing Hope College probably will be higher again next year, according t o Exe-cutive Vice President Clarence Handlogten.

" T h e college has to respond to inf la t ionary pressures," Hand-logten said. If the college raises fees, it will be the seventh increase in seven years. Fees were in-creased $250 each of the last two years.

"We are working to keep the increase as low as possible ," Hand-logten said. He added tha t any increase will be "cons iderab ly less

than last yea r . " A ceiling fo r an increase this year was established by the Board of Trus tees in Octo-ber.

The decision on a fees hike has been delayed pending clar i f icat ion of Phase II price guidelines, Hand-logten said. "We need more in-fo rma t ion f r o m the price commis-sion and various college associa-t ions , " he said.

" A s soon as the price guide-lines are clear we will make an a n n o u n c e m e n t to parents and stu-den t s , " Handlogten s ta ted.

A ten ta t ive agreement has been reached fo r Hope College to pur-chase Mrs. Marguerite Pollock's property at 46 E. Graves PI., according to the a t to rneys repre-senting bo th Mrs. Pollock and the college.

IF THE COLLEGE purchases the property, the threat of cour t proceedings and a possible court injunction which could pos tpone construction of the proposed aca-demic science center would end.

The possibility of legal ob-stacles t o cons t ruc t ion incurs from a suit filed Sept. 7 by Mrs. Pollock with Ot tawa Coun ty Cir-cuit Court. In the suit Mrs. Pol-lock charges Hope and the Hol-land Zon ing Appeals Board with violation of the city zoning ordi-nance in granting a variance to Hope for cons t ruc t ion of the science center .

HOPE'S LAWYER, James Townsend , said that the prelimi-nary unders tanding will only be-come binding when a final pur-chase agreement is d ra f t ed and signed. He added that " indica t ions are g o o d " for a se t t lement .

Rober t Gillette, a t t o rney for Mrs. Pollock concurred with Townsend ' s s t a t emen t . "I t looks like we're going to resolve the s i tua t ion , " he said, adding that "a lot of people have to sign and a lot of details have to be worked o u t " before the agreement is final-ized.

THE APPARENT break in ne-got ia t ions fol lowed a decision by Hope to increase its o f f e r to Mrs. Pollock. Gillette s tated that the tenta t ive price represents a com-promise by bo th parties.

Both lawyers said a set t lement be tween the college and Mrs. Pol-lock will probably be reached by the end of the year. ,

Pioneers in mixed media

Nikolais Dance Theatre to perform Tuesday The Alwin Nikolais Dance The-

ater, an in ternat ional ly recognized modern dance c o m p a n y , will per-form at 8 :15 p .m. Tuesday in the Holland Civic Cen te r as part of the Holland Concer t Association Series.

Alwin Nikolais is considered a pioneer in mixed media dance. He is a veteran of nearly a qua r t e r century of e f fo r t in combining d i f ferent art fo rms to create a total theater .

The Nikolais c o m p a n y has ap-peared th roughou t Europe , the Middle East and Africa, per-forming for ma jo r festivals and opera houses under the sponsor-ship of the United States Depar t -ment of State.

The group also p e r f o r m s coast to coast in the cont inen ta l U.S. and Canada annually, and has played ex tended engagements in Puer to Rico and Hawaii.

Last summer the c o m p a n y spent 17 weeks in Europe . High-lights included a c o m m a n d per-formance for the Shah and Em-press of Iran at the Teheran Bienalle and a one mon th s tand-ing-room-only season at t he The-ater de la Ville in Paris.

In addi t ion to touring the U.S. and Canada this season, the Niko-lais Dance Thea ter will share the stage with the Murray Louis Dance Company in the opera house of the Brooklyn Academy of Music in late January.

Pollution abatement in Holland: summing up Editor's note: This week's anchor essay is written by senior chemis-try major Ken Janda. He examines alternatives for area waste disposal and the future of Lake Macatawa. This article is the last in a four-part series exploring the ecological status of the lake.

Millions of dollars are being spent in the Holland area to abate water pol lut ion. T o the average citizen this fact alone probably suggests that much has been and is being done to reverse the trend toward higher and higher pollu-t ion levels.

UNFORTUNATELY, the steps now being taken probably will not do much to lower existing levels of pol lut ion, in fac t , preserving the existing levels of pollut ion seems to be the express philoso-phy behind the current movement for pollution control .

It is clear that the legislation requiring secondary t rea tment by Dec. 1, 1972, has been the main force behind much of the pollu-tion control which is presently going into ef fec t . Even though company representat ives like to speak of their c o m p a n y ' s civic responsibil i ty, the fact remains that businesses exist to make money.

AT THIS TIME pol lu t ion con-trol does not make money , it costs money . Corpora t ions cannot be trail-blazers in the pollut ion game because such act ion would cut their prof i t s compared to their compe t i t ion , thus causing inves-tors to lose conf idence . Even-tually this would lead to a severe weakening of the co rpora t ion ' s fiscal s t ructure .

Legislation works, however , be-cause it pu t s all co rpora t ions at the same disadvantage. Thus one answer to improved pollut ion aba tement is strict, un i fo rm, na-tionally-legislated environmenta l

s tandards. With such standards, and significant f ines for failure to comply , companies which ignore their pol lut ion would no t main-tain the advantage which they have today .

UNFORTUNATELY, much of the legislation now being passed preserves the system of disposing of wastes by sending t hem in to the water ways. It is t rue that more organics and phosphorus will be removed under the im-proved s tandards , but as the popu-lation cont inues to increase, to-day ' s s tandards will prove futile.

The Bauer Engineering report to the Ot tawa County board of commissioners suggesting a water quality management plan for the Black River basin il lustrates this fact nicely. It no tes that the im-provements being made in the city sewage system will cut the dis-charge of suspended solids f rom the municipal plant by over 50 percent .

POPULATION project ions for the area indicate, however , that the number of people served by the plant will double in less than twenty years. Thus we see that present e f fo r t s only serve to slow down the growth rate of pollu-tion.

Ano the r basic di f f icul ty with the present type of legislation is that it singles ou t the types of pol lutants which must be con-trolled. Right now the emphasis is on suspended solids and phos-phates. The dumping of nitrates and carbonates , however , goes on unchecked . In fac t , according to an essay published by Environ-ment , Inc., present sewage treat-ment increases the level of these types of po l lu tan ts in e f f luen t .

Since ca rbona te s and nitrates are not organic and do no t smell, they are o f t en not considered to be pol lu tants . Microorganisms and algae feed on such chemicals.

however, t rans forming them in to organic wastes which serve to pol-lute the water . Thus these inor-ganic nu t r ien ts are as potent ial ly harmful as are organic pol lutants .

IT IS CLEAR that the present phi losophy behind the various methods of pollut ion control leads us d o w n a f rus t ra t ing path. Each pol lutant is taken out of waste water separately and incom-pletely. As the popula t ion grows, larger and larger percentages of more and more pol lu tants must be removed f r o m the water just to retard the degradat ion of its pre-sent environmenta l qual i ty . Surely this phi losophy leaves much to be desired.

Pol lutants are not bad chemi-cals; they are resources out of place. That most po l lu tan ts are nutr i t ious is well i l lustrated by Lake Macatawa which suppor ts more life today than it did 20 years ago when it was much clean-er. Some pol lutants may be poi-sonous, but they are still chemi-cals which are useful in our every-day lives. Why should we be dumping these potent ial ly useful chemicals in to the water at all? Why not use them as fertilizers and mineral sources?

BAUER ENGINEERING has done a feasibility s tudy for a spray irrigation waste disposal system for Holland. The spray irrigation t r ea tmen t is exactly what the name indicates; wastes are sprayed on land, re turning the nutr ients to the soil for fu r the r use. Such a system would be comparable in cost to the secon-dary t r ea tmen t which will soon go into e f fec t .

Holland decided to stick with tradit ional disposal into Lake Macatawa and shun irrigation largely because the technique was untr ied. Muskegon has decided to try spray irrigation, and in the

coming years we will be able to see if it works ou t . If it does, it could be a much improved me-thod of waste disposal.

SINCE LAKE Macatawa is al-ready qui te po l lu ted , that is, it is quite full of nut r ien ts , perhaps instead of "c leaning i t , " its nutri-ents could be pu t to use. John Trimberger of the Michigan De-par tment of Natural Resources notes that his depa r tmen t planted five pounds of minnows in a t r ea tmen t lagoon near Belding some t ime ago. Since then they have harvested t w o tons of fish f rom the lagoon wi thout signifi-cantly deplet ing the total fish popula t ion .

This suggests that Lake Macata-wa, and many lakes like it, could be used as fish farms. The lake is probably more fert i le than most western Michigan corn fields.

AT P R E S E N T the best way to clean up the lake is not at all clear. It is clear, however, that public suppor t is needed fo r any action to take place. Both Trim-berger and A1 Reinink of the Holland Depar tmen t of Environ-mental Health no t e that their ef-forts to improve water cond i t ions have been greatly aided by the recent surge of ecological aware-ness which has swept the coun t ry .

Among groups which have been effect ive in Holland are the Holland Area Envi ronmenta l Ac-tion Council , the Holland Garden Club, the Lake Macatawa Adviso-ry Council and the college's Insti-tu te for Envi ronmenta l Qual i ty . Their presence has been fel t . For example , a long wi th the winter tax billls just received by Holland proper ty owners was a page long

descript ion of the c i ty ' s environ-menta l p ro tec t ion program. Ap-parent ly , someone is responding to s o m e inf luence.

ONE IMPORTANT part of cleaning up Lake Macatawa is deciding h o w clean it should be.v In its present state it is good enough for sailing, but no t good enough for game fishing. Trim-berger notes that 20 years ago Lake Macatawa was one of the best bass lakes in Michigan. He is hoping that present improve-ments , along with a program to rid the lake of carp, will help the lake suppor t more game fish. Other than this, no def in i te goals have been set for the lake.

Everyone has heard the old saying that morali ty canno t be legislated. Perhaps the same is t rue about po l lu t ion . Perhaps pol lu t ion is a result of deep and i rreparable wrongs within human socie ty . Rober t Coughenour , associate professor of religion, points ou t that Holland has a large n u m b e r of Christ ian churches . Thus a few words f rom Hosea IV are par t icu-larly relevant to the Lake Macata-wa p rob lem.

"Hear the word of the Lord , o people of Israel; for the Lord has a controversy with the inhab i tan t s

of the land. There is no fa i thfu l -ness or kindness, and no know-ledge of God in the land; there is swearing, lying, killing, stealing and c o m m i t t i n g adu l te ry ; they break all b o u n d s and murder fol-lows murder . Therefore the land mourns , and all who dwell in it languish, and also the birds in the air; and even the fish of the sea are t aken a w a y . "

Ed. hill may increase student aid by Marjorie De Kam

The U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives have sent omnibus higher education bills to a conference commi t tee for se t t lement .

BOTH BILLS contain new pro-posals for financial aid and keep four existing programs.

Included in the House Bill is a plan to author ize federal funds for desegregation, with antibusing amendments . Director of Finan-cial Aid Bruce Himebaugh said discussion of such proposals may pos tpone a final compromise on the bills until February , thus de-laying the achievement of in-creased financial aid oppor tuni -ties.

THE SENATE Bill was passed August 6, and the House version passed November 5. Himebaugh said the conference commit tee should begin work in January.

E d u c a t i o n a l Oppor tun i t y Grants, National Defense Student Loans, the College Work-Study Program and Guaranteed Student Loans are maintained in both bills. However, the House and Senate versions contain different alterations.

THE SENATE Bill retains the yearly maximum for Educational Oppor tun i ty Grants at $1,000 while the House would raise the maximum to $1,500. Himebaugh explained that the House Bill could increase aid to 140 Hope s tudents who have the FOG.

The National Defense Student Loan Program will also be changed. In the Senate version the maximum that undergraduates can borrow yearly is increased to

BRUCE HIMEBAUGH

$1,500, and the total maximum increases f rom $5,000 to $7,500. The House Bill retains the $5,000 total but abolishes the yearly maximum amoun t .

NDSL TEACHER loan cancel-lations would be discontinued by the House Bill except for teachers of handicapped or low-income students . The present program grants 10 percent cancellation, or ' ' forgiveness of loans" for five years to regular teachers, and 15 percent cancellation to teachers in schools with primarily low-income or handicapped students.

The Senate Bill cont inues this program and increases the special teachers ' loan cancellation per-centage. The House plan would retain cancellation for special teachers only.

HOPE STUDENTS who receive NDSL loans af ter passage of the bill would be affected by this. <4lt is because supply and demand changes, and now there is not so great a need for teachers ," com-mented Himebaugh. " T h e present system hur ts the revolving of money through the loan system. Because of more teachers, less money comes back for the college to loan to other s tuden ts . "

In the House Bill, the College Work-Study Program loses its maximum requirement for work-ing hours. The Senate version keeps the present 15 hour maxi-mum. Himebaugh pointed out the House Bill is more flexible en-abling s tudents to work more if desired.

G U A R A N T E E D S t u d e n t Loans increase in both bills, f rom $1,500 maximum per year to $2,500 per year. The present max-imum of $5,000 for total college years is increased to $7,500 by the Senate and to $10,000 by the House.

A new program proposed in both bills is Insti tutional Aid. The

program would be the first direct federal assistance to colleges for operating expenses.

EACH BILL employs a differ-ent method for determining the amount of institutional aid. The House formula is based two-thirds on total enrollment and one-third on the amount of federal aid paid to students. The Senate version uses enrollment plus the number of s tudents with educational op-por tuni ty grants.

Himebaugh estimated that the House Bill would give Hope $490,000 while the Senate version would give $244,000 in institu-tional aid.

OTHER FINANCIAL aid pro-posals common to both bills are providing aid to part-t ime stu-dents as well as full-time s tudents , and authorizing a secondary mar-ket for Guaranteed Student Loans to make more student loans pos-sible.

The Senate Bill proposed two additional a tudent aid programs. One is a Basic Ent i t lement Grant , which would supply $1 ,400 minus the expected family cont r ibut ion .

The other is a State Scholarship Incentive which Himebaugh de-scribed as "aid to s tudents with substantial need above and be-yond the normal state competit ive scholarship awards.

IN FINAL FORM, the finan-cial aid programs in the higher education bill will take effect the 1973 fiscal year, which starts July 1972. Himebaugh explained that af ter passage the programs face problems of funding in the House and Senate Appropriat ion Com-mittees. He said conservative sen-t iments in these commit tees may grant only partial or even no funding for the financial aid pro-grams.

However, Himebaugh is glad that new directions in educational aid are being suggested. He cited the Institutional Aid program as an advantage to private colleges and said, "Even if funding fails, the idea of helping colleges finan-cially is significant."

In general, the House version would favor Hope's financial aid program, he said.

Jobs 70 closes center; labor contract expires

by Dave DeKok

Jobs '70 has closed its training center at 79 E. 10th St.

MR. ROSCOE Giles, executive secretary of the Holland Chamber of Commerce , stated that Jobs '70 was authorized under a contract with the U.S. Department of La-bor to hire people for a six-month period. The program began in March and ended in September .

All job-related education has been completed and the on-the-job training will be completed in February , Giles stated. The house which served as the training center belongs to Hope, and will become the college "Black house ," a cen-ter for the activities of Hope's black s tudents .

JOBS '70 'S goal was to find jobs for people and then to train them in the necessary occupation-al skills. The training was divided into two parts, Giles stated. The first part consisted of on-the-job training at the factory or store. The second part of the training consisted of work orientat ion and job-related educat ion.

This second part of the training was administered by Hope under a subcontract from the Chamber of Commerce . The job-related educa-tion, which took place at the center, could entail anything from blue print reading to instruction in English for Chicanos, Giles commented .

Hope students

to give program

of gospel music The Hope College Gospel

Voices will present a program of gospel music Sunday at 4 p.m. in the theater of the DeWitt Cultural Center .

Appearing with the 38 mem-ber Gospel Voices Choir will be Mattie Mossclark and the Clark Sisters, winners of three gold re-cords. Also featured will be the Bethel Pentecostal Radio and Re-cording Choir f rom Grand Rapids.

Jack Whitehead is the program coord ina tor and Wilson Richard-son will serve as pianist and train-er. Rudy Howard and Carlton Golder will direct the program.

ALL TRAINING was tailored to the needs of the individual and much individual counseling was given. As an example, Giles stated, one man 's education level was raised f rom second grade to sixth grade.

The special target groups of Jobs '70 were people under 25 or over 45. Of the approximately 30 people hired, the majori ty were in the 18 to 25 age bracket . Approx-imately 65 percent of the 30 were Chicanos, Giles said.

GILES STATED that he con-sidered Jobs '70 "qualitatively a success but not quant i ta t ively ." Jobs '70 's contract allowed for the hiring of 102 men and women by 23 companies in the HoUand-Zeeland area. However, some of the companies were forced to lay off permanent employees and thus could not hire any Jobs's '70 people.

A stepped-up recrui tment drive seems to be bearing fruit for Hope College; as of Friday the admis-sions off ice had received approxi-mately 25 more applications this fall than at the same time last year.

ACCORDING TO Tom La-Baugh, director of admissions, Hope is seeking a 4.5 percent overall head count increase next fall, and he thinks Hope is going to hit that figure. To do so the college must admit approximately 700 new s tudents as freshmen and transfers.

The increased recrui tment ef-fort s tems from Hope's failure last year to receive as many applica-tions as were sought. Decreasing numbers of applications is a prob lem many schools are facing, La-Baugh said. He added that Hope will probably be the exception if it meets its admissions projec-tions for this year.

NOT ONLY IS the total num-ber of applications up this fall, but the ratio of men to women is closer to one to one. At the end of the third week in November last fall, Hope had 367 applica-tions. Of these 252 were f rom females. This fall, with 366 appli-cations at the end of the third week in November, only 208 were f rom prospective coeds.

These are encouraging figures to LaBaugh. Presently, there are approximately 1,100 women at

Hope and 1,000 men. According to the admissions director, the administration would like to have a one to one ratio or a few more men than women. He said that male graduates usually earn more money and prominence, some of which of ten returns to the college.

THE ADMISSIONS office has instituted several new programs under the direction of LaBaugh who came to Hope last March. These include the addition of two 1971 Hope graduates to the ad-missions staff as recruiters and a poster campaign.

Faculty art exhibit opens in DCC gallery

An exhibition of works by members of the Hope College art department opened yesterday in the art gallery of the DeWitt Cultural Center.

THE EXHIBITION will be the first group showing by the Hope art faculty in three years. The show will be composed of works in varied media including painting, drawing, prints, sculpture, assem-blages and ceramics.

Included will be the recent drawing and painting by Robert Vickers, chairman of the art de-partment . His work has been in-cluded in numerous exhibi t ions both in this country and abroad, and is represented in the per-manent collections of the Rocke-feller Insti tute and the Fort Wayne Art Insti tute.

DELBERT MICHEL (assistant professor of art), will also exhibit

Publicity increased

Hope seeks national image by Gerald Swieringa

An accelerated a t tempt at pro-moting Hope's public image has resulted in some widespread al-though sporadic national coverage of Hope activities according to Executive Vice-president of the College Clarence Handlogten.

ACCORDING to Handlogten, the college has employed the ser-vices of public relations specialist Claire Cox of New York in an effor t to promote Hope's national image.

One area in which the college is a t tempt ing to receive publicity is the area of finances. "So many colleges have incurred debts over the past few years that it has become something of interest to find one which hasn ' t , " Handlog-ten stated. "We are trying to circulate a story by Miss Cox to the Wall Street Journal regarding Hope's finishing the last fiscal year in the black," he explained.

OTHER PROMOTIONS have included publicity regarding such activities as the Pull and the Col-lege Choir 's White House appear-ance last year. Handlogten slated that a spot about the Pull ap-

peared on a Utah television sta-tion recently.

Handlogten acknowledged that the promotion has thus far met with limited success. Feed-back f rom the various promotions has been somewhat lacking, he stated.

BESIDES ATTEMPTS at na-tional news coverage, the Hope promotion program involves the circulation of 10,000 rear-window decals to Hope friends and alum-ni. Hopefully, Handlogten stated, the decals will encourage enroll-ment in the school and "get the Hope name a r o u n d . "

In high schools and churches information cards have been dis-tr ibuted which offer a free " H o p e " poster upon writing to the college. Handlogten stated that the college will then draw up a mailing list f rom the inquiries and thereby " p u m p the kids with information about Hope . "

IN STATING the reasons be-hind the promotional program Handlogten said, "1 think of Hope as a long-term association. Gradu-ates are tied to this college for a lifetime, and therefore the present image of the college becomes im-

portant . Students will trade on their degrees any number of times in their professional careers."

"We don ' t have any clear ob-jectives here ," he acknowledges, "but it's bound to pay off in the end ."

recent paintings and drawings. One-man exhibi t ions of his work have been held at Kalamazoo Col-lege and Hackley Art Museum, and his work is also found in the collections of the Butler Insti tute of American Art and the Grand Rapids Museum of Art.

David Smith-Greenwood, assis-tant professor of art, will show ceramics and bronze sculptures. He has had special exhibit ions of his work at the Kalamazoo Art Center and Grand Valley State College, and has been included in group exhibit ions at the Joselyn Art Museum and the Springfield Art Museum.

ASSISTANT PROFESSOR of art, Bruce McCombs, will exhibit recent prints and drawings. During the past five years his works have been included in over 100 na-tional exhibi t ions and is repre-sented in the permanent collec-tion of The Whiting Museum and the Philadelphia Museum.

Mrs. Jean Battles will be show-ing several new drawings. During the past year she received prizes at exhibit ions held at Grand Rapids Festival '71 , South Bend Art Cen-ter and Hackley Art Gallery.

The exhibition will run through Dec. 31. The Gallery hours are; Weekdays — 1 to 5 p.m. and 6 to 10 p.m., Saturday and Sunday - 1 to 5 p.m.

AdAB begins review of board

structure; opinions solicited A proposal to review the board

and committee s t ructure of the college was passed by the Admini-strative Affairs Board at its Nov. 22 meeting.

Dr. Harrison Ryker, assistant professor of music, moved that the AdAB, in conjunc t ion with the Student Congress, solicit f rom faculty members and stu-dents comments and suggestions for improving the current commit-tee structure.

In fur ther act ion, the AdAB voted to dra f t a new proposal for communi ty review of board deci-sions. The action was taken by the AdAB af ter a discussion of the

proposal to replace faculty review submit ted to the board at its Nov. 1 meeting by s tudents Bob Scott , Chuck Cousineau and Mark De-Roo.

The al ternate proposal which the AdAB will draft will provide for s tudent representation in the review process. According to the first proposal, which originated in the Student Congress, members of the review commit tee would be the dean for academic affairs, the dean of students, the president of the college, twelve faculty mem-bers ( four f rom each division), and six Student Congress mem-bers.

Milestone memory The weakest sibling of Hope's media

triumvirate has found itself contemplating suicide. With a little encouragement from the good doctor, the Student Communica-tions Media Committee, the Milestone will die.

The symptoms of her ailment are mani-fold. Student participation on the staff of the Milestone has decreased. The quality of reproductions has been sacrificed in recent years to the demands of a tight production schedule. While students pay for the Mile-stone to the tune of $7 apiece in the form

anchor editorials of the S tuden t Activities fee, less than half of the campus body invests the last dollar to insure a re turn on their inves tment . The Milestone has incurred acute p roduc t ion delays. Finally, and most dramat ica l ly , the Milestone f inds itself w i thou t an edi tor .

It seems the winter is indeed the t ime for d iscontent . Last year at this t ime, the anchor was struggling with many of the

same problems current ly facing the Mile-stone. There was expressed s tuden t dissatis-fact ion with the paper, a pending inquiry into its f unc t ion and f inances, and, to

comple te the analogy, no edi tor . That is where the compar ison ends: the anchor survived its winter of d i scontent , the Mile-stone may no t .

The quest ion that must be asked of the Milestone which, by its very timeliness.

could not have been asked of the anchor, is "What price nostalgia?" The Milestone has yet to affirm itself as anything but a voice of semester past. H o w much are the stu-dents of Hope willing to pay for this glimpse back throuc^i the dark glass of a smeared negative? In this age of the cheap selling of sentiment, h o w many students are willing to pay $ 8 for a little college schmaltz?

The anchor survived because it offered a product of some distinction. In its own way the anchor was able to do what the Milestone s imply has been unable to do:

reflect the thoughts and opinions of the Hope community . The Milestone failed because it was basically dishonest, it re-flected a community t o o idyllic, too famili-al to ever be authentic.

The faul t is probably no t in our Mile-stone, bu t in the yearbook. The institu-tion of an annual ded ica ted to recreate the events and faces of a year is simply obsolete . It can hardly be done on a bi-weekly basis (witness The Saturday Evening Post and Look), let alone on a yearly one . T h e demand is for immediacy, for the clari ty of percept ion , not the dis tor t ion of recall.

The Milestone is dying. At the present , only the SCMC stands be tween the Mile-stone and eu logy , between the perpetua-tion of an archaic tradition and the accep-tance of c o m m o n sense. The SCMC can either play t h e role of midwife or under-taker . Should it choose the latter, the Milestone will die. S o be it.

Truth in advertising

The political market by Art Buchwald

C o p y r i g h t © 1 9 7 1 , Los Angeles T i m e s S y n d i c a t e

The goal of creating a greater national profile for Hope College and thereby in-creasing the economic and prestige value of Hope diplomas is current ly occasioning an adminis t ra t ion-mounted publ ic i ty cam-paign.

Through m e t h o d s such as the employ-ment of a public relations specialist to advertise events such as the Pull and the choir 's White House appearance, the circu-lation of thousands of car decals to Hope alumni, the dis t r ibut ion of posters, and an

a t t emp t to have an article on the college's healthy financial physique published in the

H/a// Street Journal, officials hope to raise the name 'Hope College' nearer to the status of a household word.

It cannot be disputed tha t benef i ts accruing to Hope s tudents and alumni as a result of greater public recognit ion for the

college are legit imate goals, and there is nothing inherently wrong with the adminis-t rat ion 's publici ty ef for ts . However, it is essential that these e f fo r t s be kept in proper perspective.

There is always a certain a m o u n t of di f ference between a college's public image

and its actual na ture def ined in te rms of the quality of educat ion o f fe red there.

However, the fo rmer ul t imately depends on the latter. Skillful publ ici ty programs may improve a school 's r epu ta t ion to a certain extent , but they necessarily focus

on its more superficial aspects, e.g. the Pull and the choir .

In the long run, the goal that must remain f o r e m o s t in the mind of the admin-istration as well as other segments of the college c o m m u n i t y is academic qual i ty . The es tab l i shment and ma in tenance of a high level in that area is essential for insuring the real worth of a Hope d ip loma.

The present t ime is an auspicious one for e f fo r t in the direction of improving the quality of educa t ion at Hope. The exis-tence of a surplus of c o m p e t e n t aca-demicians w h o face d i f f i cu l ty in f inding work presents Hope's adminis t ra t ion with a

unique o p p o r t u n i t y t o upgrade the facul ty . Although f inancial l imitat ions obviously will not al low the hiring of a nonpareil in

every case, t he condit ion of the academic e m p l o y m e n t market certainly justifies the weeding ou t of instructors whose compe-tence is questionable and the hiring of better-skilled replacements.

Through upgrading of the facul ty , the goal of making Hope graduates prove the quality of thei r school th rough their own pe r fo rmance should become more at tain-

able. At the same time, there should be less and less need for students to depend on commercia l ism to buttress, or inflate, the value of their diplomas. In view of the current s i tua t ion , it is not p r e s u m p t u o u s to expect the administration t o make progress in this d i rec t ion .

Critical chance The Adminis t rat ive Affa i rs Board de-

cided Monday to exercise its right to review the opera t ion of the commi t t ee structure. In order to receive s tudent and faculty input prior to this review, the AdAB has requested tha t compla in ts against the s t ruc ture or suggestions for revision be fo rwarded to the board prior to their Dec. 15 meeting.

With this request the Administrat ive Affairs Board has given to those critical of the commi t t ee system an o p p o r t u n i t y to express what they see as f laws. With this oppor tun i ty comes the responsibil i ty of put t ing pen to paper and art iculat ing pre-cisely where the weak po in t s are, and

suggesting how they can be s t rengthened. If this step isn't taken, the criticism be-comes so much hot air. It would be unfor-tunate because change can be e f fec ted .

Already this fall one significant im-provement has been implemented with the publicat ion of the times, places and agen-das for all board and c o m m i t t e e meetings in the "Daily Bul le t in ." This change came about because of a suggestion made in an a n c h o r edi torial .

Another important change is in the legislative mi l l - th i s one would replace re-

view by the f acu l ty c o m m i t t e e of the whole with a f o r m of c o m m u n i t y review that would involve s t uden t s and adminis-t ra tors in a process t ha t still is the exclusive domain of the f acu l ty .

Bigger ques t ions remain unanswered. Is the very appa ren t lack of initiative, on the part of m a n y c o m m i t t e e m e n something that could be removed by changes in the campus " c o n s t i t u t i o n ? " Could someth ing be done to either s t imula te interest or force cons t ruc t ive action? Can facul ty and s tudents challenge the admin is t ra t ion ' s use of the power of the purse? How can action

taken by boards be preserved publicly so that legislative e f forts are not repeated?

The Adminis t ra t ive Affa i r s Board can not be expec t ed t o try to answer these

quest ions or many others unless they are made known . This takes work, both to write down complaints and to fo rmula t e suggestions. But the e f fo r t should be wor thwhi le . Af t e r all, a lmost any change that is to be made at Hope must go through the commit tee sys tem, and the s t ructure of that system inf luences how fast a piece of legislation can be passed, and to some degree whether or no t it will be passed.

Once again Congress is a t t emp t ing to pass legislation which would infringe on the rights of people. The Senate passed a bill last week which would permit each tax-payer to dona te $1 of his taxes to finance the 1972 presidential campaign. The House has several bills limiting the a m o u n t of money politicians can spend on their cam-paigns.

IF ANY OF THESE bills become law, it means that the right of large corpora t ions and labor unions to buy poli t icians would be abrogated, and the vested interests in this count ry would be hard pu t to f inance the campaigns of congressmen, senators and the President.

Terence L. Bloodstone , president of the Washington Order of Loyal Lobbyis ts , an-grily denounced the new plans to f inance politicians as a threat to the American political way of life.

" T H E SALVATION of this d e m o c r a c y , " he told me at a $500-a-plate political tes t imonial dinner , "is big business ' and big labor 's f inancing of political campaigns. For years we have made it possible for every poli t ician in this coun t ry to be elected. There isn't one congressman, senator or governor who doesn ' t o w e a debt to us. Now Congress wants to t ake that a w a y . "

" I t does seem un fa i r , " I admi t t ed . Bloodstone s tabbed his fork in to his

lobster thermidor . "We've been buying and selling poli-

t icans for years. They t rus t us, they believe in us, they' l l go to bat fo r us . "

"MANY OF THEM A R E even in bed with y o u , " I said, t rying to be he lpfu l .

He ignored this remark. " L o o k around at this dinner. Every table of 10 people represents $5 ,000 . Who bought these tables? Corpora t ions , bankers , manufac-turers and publ ic-minded millionaires. We don ' t ask any th ing fo r ourselves. We just want the best man elected to the best job . Do you think people w h o con t r ibu te one

lousy dollar f rom their taxes will have any idea who the best man is?"

"I should say n o t , " I replied. " Y o u have to con t r ibu te a lot of money to k n o w what is good for the c o u n t r y . "

Bloodstone s ta r ted tearing his duck a I 'orange apar t .

"DO YOU KNOW WHAT is going to happen if these political fund-raising schemes become law? The polit icians aren ' t going to be responsible to anybody. They ' re going to figure i t 's the taxpayer ' s money so they d o n ' t have to answer fo r their ac t ions . "

" I t ' s t r u e , " I said. " A t least now a politician k n o w s w h o gave him the money and can react accord ing ly . "

" T h e Democra t s are so re , " Bloods tone said, "because they can' t get anyone to come to thei r dinners . But I say if a political par ty can ' t sell ou t a $500-a-plate dinner, it s hou ldn ' t be in politics. Just because they d o n ' t have an Agnew or a Martha Mitchell is no reason to sabotage all of the campaign fund-raising m e t h o d s of this c o u n t r y . "

B L O O D S T O N E WAS NOW gulping down his foie gras.

I said, " I t seems a pity that a f t e r all t he seed work the lobbyis t s have done to get polit icians in the i r pocke t , that a g roup of senators or congressmen would des t roy it with some self-serving legislat ion."

D O N T T H I N K THE F I G H T is over , " Bloodstone said. " T h e Senate bill has to go to the House and then it has to go to the President. Do y o u think any Republ ican President would sign a law that would help the Democra t s f inance their campa ign?"

" I should h o p e n o t , " I said. The waiter b rough t our cherries jubilee. B L O O D S T O N E BELCHED. "Besides,

we have to th ink of the e conomy . What ' s going to h a p p e n t o all the hote l banque t rooms if they d o away with political fund-raising d inne r s?"

"What a blow to Conrad Hi l ton , " I said.

anchor review

Monod's man:from cosmic noise to human music Editor's note: This week's anchor review is written by junior philos-ophy major Neal Freedman. He reviews the book Chance and Necessity: An Essay on the Na-tural Philosophy of Modern Bio-logy by Jacques Monod, trans-lated by Austryn Wainhouse (Al-ferd A. Knopf, $6 .95 ) .

" E v e r y t h i n g exist ing in the Universe is t h e f ru i t of chance and necess i ty , " said Democr i tus long ago. Th i s p r o n o u n c e m e n t rested m o r e on Democr i t u s ' subjective fan tas ies and his o w n tragic sense a b o u t t h e cosmos , than on what we w o u l d regard as the hard, objec t ive , empir ical fac ts of scien-tific invest igat ion.

A N D B E C A U S E the lat ter is " w h e r e i t ' s a t " philosophically speaking, we in the western tradi-t ion cou ld rightly reject and ig-nore its d i sconcer t ing ethical cor-ollary, Fa ta l i sm. A theory of value based on m a n ' s u t t e r and com-plete de te rmin i sm was, with only a few excep t ions , fo rgo t ten a b o u t - l e s s , I suspect , on empiri-cal g r o u n d s and more on the g rounds of our own cowardice and weakness .

And so instead we clung to Plato, Hegel, Bergson, de Chardin, Spencer , Marx, a n d / o r God , since the life process must be guided by someth ing , some purpose , some divine i n t en t ion , some master plan. But now a F rench bio-chem-ist, J aques Monod , who could easily d o u b l e as a phi lsopher , comes a long and says to us: I s y m p a t h i z e with y o u r inclination to p ro jec t p u r p o s e in the world; however , 1 mus t tell you , you are wrong, abso lu te ly and terribly wrong, and I have the knowledge to suppo r t this claim.

T H R O U G H M O N O D S ad-vances in b io-chemis t ry , Demo-cr i tus ' animist ic theory is trans-fo rmed in to scient i f ic fact . The process of the b iosphere is to ta l ly , tragically bl ind. If non-scientists like myself can manage their way th rough M o n o d ' s highly special-ized language and complex chemi-cal d iagrams, they will learn that man is an acc ident based on "ab-s o l u t e " chance and this accident is pe rpe tua t ed by virtue of necessary chemical react ions .

" T h e initial e l emen ta ry events which o p e n the way to evolut ion

in . . . sys tems called living beings are microscopic , fo r tu i tous and u t te r ly w i thou t relat ion to wha t ever may be thei r effect upon t e l eomonic f u n c t i o n i n g . "

" B U T , " MONOD goes on, " o n c e incorpora ted in the DNA s t ruc ture , the accident . . . will be mechanical ly and fa i thful ly repli-cated and t r ans la t ed . "

"Al l living things are accidents , given bir th to by chance and enter ing in to the realm of neces-s i ty . " F r o m the scientific stanch-point (which Monod claims as perfec t ly object ive) , t he concept of "chance , the principle of uncer-t a i n t y " is not merely me thodo-logical but "essen t ia l " because verifiable. That " c h a n c e " is finally verifiable is, we must admi t , a ques t ionable mat te r . It certainly was for Einstein, who rejected it as an "essen t ia l " concep t .

AT ANY R A T E , every living being, according to Monod, f rom the most " s i m p l e " organism to man, is a coheren t , in tegrated, sel f -construct ing chemical ma-chine. But by way of what has been observed of the catalyt ic ac t ion of l ife 's most basic ele-ments , enzyme-pro te ins , each of these " m a c h i n e s " owes its exis-tence to the deve lopment of an absolutely unpred ic tab le bio-chemical s i tua t ion. In o ther words, if man is the "h ighes t " being it is only because the cos-mological dice came up " c r a p s . "

Man evolved f r o m simple f o r m s by the in teract ion of environ-menta l pressures and chance gen-etic mu ta t i on , says Monod. Cul-ture, and in part icular the use of language are examples of such accidents a t t r ibu tab le to pure chance, ie., blind chemical pro-cess.

THE C H A L L E N G E that B. F . Skinner posed to our sent imenta l intellects is far less threa ten ing when compared to Monod 's . Skin-ner might have explained human response in t e rms of cont ingen-cies, and so we are no more than pigeons. But behavior is not only de te rmined by external stimuli. It is more p r o f o u n d l y the p roduc t of internal biological s t ruc ture .

F o r example , the epigenetic deve lopment of one side of the brain resulted in man ' s ability to create abstract concepts . If intel-lectual activity can be explained

peeopd peview Editor's note: This week's WTAS record review is written by music director Bud Thompson. He re-views Living by Judy Collins on Elektra Records.

There are some art ists whose ar t is t ry is the i r work . Then there are t hose whose ar t is t ry is their life. F o r these, creat ing a thing of beau ty is as na tura l as breathing. And wi th their beau ty they b rea the a l i t t le more life into the people w h o are a r o u n d to look or, in some cases, listen.

Living is the name of Judy Collins ' new a l b u m . It came as a pleasant surprise a f t e r a long stream of " L i v e " a lbums. Here finally was an a lbum title that descr ibed not only how the album was p e r f o r m e d , but also the feel-ing that it p ro jec ts . Here was Judy Collins . . .living.

The songs are inseparable in the sense tha t they all mainta in a cons tan t level of beau ty . But

t ha t ' s to be expec ted . Tha t ' s the way J u d y Collins works (and lives.) On Living she takes the songs of ar t is ts such as Leonard Cohen ( " J o a n of Arc , " "Blue Ra incoa t " ) , Bob Dylan ( " J u s t Like T o m T h u m b ' s Blues"), and Joni Mitchell ("Chelsea Morn ing") and touches t hem with the Collins magic tha t has made her a folk classic.

Not all the songs are pe r fo rmed live. S o m e are s tud io cuts. Very few pe r fo rmers would have the courage or abili ty to compare live and s tudio pe r fo rmances on the same a lbum, yet Miss Collins does it and it comes ou t great.

This a lbum was made for all who treasure the beauty of music. For all who t reasure being alive, this a lbum was also made. One day someone was a round to re-cord Judy Collins singing: living the life she has based on the beauty of music. Someone cap-tured her living. All who hear will be a little more alive because of it.

as behavior de te rmined by the evolut ionary process, blind law, as Monod says it can, then the only reason f o r man to regard himself as s o m e h o w d i f fe ren t f r o m the simplest bacter ia is man ' s own hubris.

BUT EVEN MAN'S hubris , which takes the fo rm of tradi-tional Western ph i losophy ' s insis-tence on a " d e s t i n y " or "evolu-t ionary p u r p o s e " in the world ( which Monod calls " a n i m i s m " , Le., a n t h r o p o m o r p h i s m ) can be explained by way of the on togen-etic process. This is where Monod is perhaps most vulnerable to the criticism tha t he is pract ic ing a reductivism.

But fo r such an a t tack to be valid it mus t go b e y o n d just say-ing that Monod ' s cyberne t i c theory explains t oo m u c h and therefore t o o little. It must be shown exact ly where Monod ' s ex-planat ion fal ters (e.g.. Is genetics all there is to intellectual activi-ty?) ; and this seems to be the j o b of the scientist himself.

IN ANY EVENT, animism, says Monod, is dangerous and false, especially when it s t ru t s about as "scient i f ic k n o w l e d g e " as in the case of Marxism or "na tu ra l l aw" as in the case of liberal Enl igh tenment progression. How-ever, Monod sympath izes with the need to see the evolut ionary pro-cess.

Monod acknowledges that an impasse has been reached and the tragic t ru th must be faced. No longer can man con t inue to reap the benef i t s provided him by sci-ence, while holding to the tradi-tional concep t s and values which science has r e fu t ed . This schizo-phrenic cond i t ion has b lown up into a social disease. The ethical implicat ions of present day sci-ence mean the a b a n d o n m e n t of

the "o ld c o v e n a n t " and the neces-sity of forging a new set of values.

THE NEW ETHIC is tha t of science i tself-the "e th ic of knowl -edge ." This means a c o m m i t m e n t t o total object ivi ty. Insofar as science, opera t ing f rom this very c o m m i t m e n t , posits a world of chance and necessity, then on ly u p o n this dark picture should a theo ry of value be founded .

In this way only can the dark-ness be t rans formed in to light, tha t is, by man ' s acceptance of his de te rmined nature. A fatalism which seems to me to be as good a reason to b e c o m e a hermi t in the style of the Epicureans than a scientist.

We must face squarely the theories and conclusions reached by scientists like Monod , in-cluding B. F. Skinner, instead of donn ing our monkish robes and escaping off to our monas ter ies in quie t def iance. Nor should we hyster ical ly p ronounce t h e m here-tics fit f o r public burning. These types of repudia t ions could on ly lend suppor t to scientists like Monod.

T H E R E ARE alternatives to act ing like hur t children deprived of their fantas t ic play things (e.g., "radical f r e e d o m " ) which do no t represent mere psychological or emot iona l needs but real criti-cisms. In the case of Monod, we must ask certain quest ions con-cerning methodo logy and episte-mology. Is the scientific m e t h o d really perfect ly "ob jec t ive" or is its m e t h o d already ta inted by the very way it fo rmula ted the qeus-t ions it seeks to answer?

There are also mat te rs of f ac t , empirical concerns, about which science is not fully certain. S o m e of these are the " f a c t s " about the evolu t ionary process itself or the internal genetic s t ruc tures of

species, like m a n , which Monod himself admits have ye t t o find abso lu te suppor t .

THERE ARE ALSO problems wi th the ethical message Monod draws f r o m his work in hio-chem-istry. First , he would have t o agree tha t the crea t ion of th is new e th ic would d e m a n d a new genetic m u t a t i o n , one which we guess is a l ready biologically present in M o n o d himself and scientists in general!

Second , this would make the scientist the ideal c rea tor of such values f o r society by vir tue of the fac t tha t he possesses the correct e thical insights (nuclear bombs , chemical warfare, d e f o r m e d chil-d ren , the ecological disaster, e tc!) .

Black Christians by Bob Blanton

Black people in America have been skillfully injected wi th t rep ida t ion , servility and white values - and all t he things that go along with t hem.

IN PLACE of black cu l tu re and political con-sciousness, t he whi te man implan ted religion - and also educa ted some negroes w h o might as well have been whi te , to spread that religion a m o n g o the r negroes. T h e ques t ion arises as to why a religion that was, and still is, used as an i n s t rumen t of oppression against black people (and o the r people of color) is accepted and pract iced vehement ly by those same black people.

Such a p h e n o m e n o n requires much more analysis that I can sat isfactori ly give. However , it still remains tha t the same religion (Chris t iani ty) that ordained slavery as an " ins t i tu t ion unde r G o d " is wide-spread a m o n g blacks. This is a peculiar situa-t ion. These are peculiar people .

T H E R E IS a p recondi t ion fo r integrat ing (assimi-lating) blacks in to white society. By integrat ion the white means "Be like m e . " However, it should be no ted tha t the white man is convinced that the black man can never be like h im, can never be as good as he is, and has built a society which reinforces the same basic principle.

Object ively, then, there is no reason for blacks to try to b e c o m e like white people and there is no basis whatsoever for the imper t inen t assumpt ion that whites must accept us.

H O W E V E R , since slavery, the whi te man 's reli-gion has gradually become an integral part of a warped black reality. It is historical fac t that slave owners felt they had less to fear f rom slaves who believed in the white man ' s god than f rom those who did n o t . An overwhelming major i ty of black people thus became "God- fea r ing . "

Hope College u n f o r t u n a t e l y has a significant number of black chris t ians. They meet f r equen t ly , singing gospel and s tudy ing the bible. I have noth ing against gospel. I have no th ing against the bible (even though it lacks credib i l i ty) as long as it isn ' t read seriously.

WHAT'S u n f o r t u n a t e about the black christ ians at Hope is t h e fac t t ha t all they do is sing and read. To say tha t the black christians at H o p e lack political consc iousness is an unde r s t a t emen t . While the Hope College adminis t ra t ion has been deliber-ately cu t t ing black enro l lment , the black christ ians on campus give a concer t in gospel music. (And in the aud ience will p robab ly be those same admini-strators-clapping no less.)

Black chr is t ians at Hope and th roughou t the coun t ry are caught up in a historical process of racism. Ei ther t h e y faU to unders tand this or they refuse to u n d e r s t a n d it. Black christians are direct decenden ts of a white-racist religion adop ted during the slavery per iod .

R E L I G I O N has never met the oppression and exploi ta t ion of blacks. Being religious doesn ' t change a d a m n thing. Singing and dancing and reading the bible are things that should be temporar -ily set aside or at least pu t in proper perspective. History has to ld us tha t we will be unable to sing and dance our way to f r e e d o m - a s s u m i n g it 's f r eedom that we wan t .

A WORD T O Hope ' s black christ ians gospel group: the chances are good that you' l l win the "colored g r o u p " of the year award. And I hear you do a basically good mil i tant shuff le when dancing is in order , too .

AAB approves cours options for world lit.

The Academic Affairs Board in a special meeting last Tuesday approved proposals f r o m the Eng-lish and foreign language depart-ments which would allow s tudents to make subst i tut ions for English 31 or 32, World Literature, in partial fulfil lment of the cultural heritage requirement .

AT ITS REGULAR Nov. 23 meeting, the AAB had passed a proposal which required that courses to be subst i tuted for world lit. meet the following guidelines:

Courses to be subst i tuted for English 31 must include Greek or Roman literature and more than one literary genre. Subst i tut ions for English 32 must focus on literature after the renaissance, include more than one literary genre, and deal with lyric poetry and the question of how to read poetry.

DR. ARTHUR Jentz, associate professor of philosophy, moved that the board accept the English department proposal that would allow Greek 55, The Greek Exper-ience, and Latin 55, The Roman Experience, to be substi tuted for English 31, and English 66, Major American Writers; English 73 and 74, Survey of American Literature I and II; and English 82, Survey of English Literature II, to be substi-tuted for English 32. After some discussion the motion passed unanimously.

Several board members specu-lated that there was a danger that o ther depar tments might want to substi tute their own courses for world lit.

STUDENT representative to the AAB Dean Gentel moved that the board approve the foreign lan-guage depar tment proposal, which would allow upper level foreign language li terature courses to be subst i tuted for English 32. Gen-tel 's mot ion passed unanimously.

Course subst i tut ions f rom the foreign languages include: French 55, In t roduct ion to French Litera-ture; German 55, Masterpieces; German 74, German Literature IV; Spanish 55, In t roduct ion to Hispanic Literatures; Spanish 74, Nineteenth Century Spanish Liter-ature; and Spanish 78, Modern Spanish American Literature.

NONE OF these courses may be taken to fulfill both the foreign language requirement and the cul-tural heritage requirement , howev-er. Also, s tudents who have al-ready taken any of these courses will not be af fected by the change.

The AAB's decision could con-ceivably be abrogated when it becomes eligible for review by the faculty commi t tee of the whole in January. If so, s tudents who sub-stitue o ther courses for English 31 or 32 during preregistration could be forced to change their sche-dules.

P E O P L E

The people of God have always had to struggle to unders tand what it means, practically speak-ing, to be God's people in the world. When they have failed to struggle, they have failed to un-derstand.

THE PROPHETIC Word of God, f rom Isaiah to Revelation, speaks again and again of this failure. And we soon see it is not merely an intellectual sort of er-ror. It is a moral failure.

The struggle in the contempor-ary church has taken the form of a tension between Christianity conceived as a mode of personal piety, and Christianity conceived as a mode of social activism. The pietistic mode puts priorities on prayer and Bible-study disciplines, small group fellowships and per-sonal evangelism.

THE ACTIVIST mode puts pri-ority on commi tmen t s to the practical tasks at hand in secular society, which need to be under-taken for the healing of social ills.

The general sort of resolution which has emerged in contempor-ary Christian consciousness is that we should not resolve the tension with an ei ther/or answer, but rather with a both-and answer. That is, we should not settle for

conceiving Christianity as being think it needs to be, or ought to either a mode of personal piety, be. I would urge that we have not or else a mode of acting in the grasped the unity of Christian life world, but we should aim at both and communi ty , but that we have genuine piety and effective social divided it by foisting on it a ministry. distinction which is utterly arti-

This " reso lu t ion" is certainly a ficial, and has no correspondence move in the right direction, both to the character it is supposed to on Biblical grounds and according have. to the judgment of sanctified common sense. But I think it is still inadequate.

ITS INADEQUACY is that it still conceives of the two modes

Yet, taking our cue f rom the prophets , we have gotten into this schizophrenia not merely by some intellectual error. We need to look for the roots of our division as

A R E A C O D E 6 1 6

I ex tend my greetings and best wishes for this year at Hope. I t rust this let ter f inds you and yours happy and in good health.

If this is the first t ime you have become aware of The Calvin Diamond C o m p a n y , please allow me

to in t roduce myself and give you a few words of explana t ion a b o u t my services. I am an engineer by

profession and a gemologist by hobby . Several years ago 1 began selling d i amond engagement rings to

Calvin College s tudents . I have ex t ended my services to many Hope s tuden ts the last few years. I

would like to welcome all Hope s tuden t s to consider The Calvin Diamond Co. for the fol lowing reasons:

1.

2.

3.

You may always bring a d iamond back for a full r e f u n d ; no o the r retailer allows this.

I service every ring tha t I sell — wi thou t charge. This service will replace a lost d iamond ,

replace a chipped d iamond , solder rings together a f te r you are married, replace worn prongs,

replace worn shanks, or change the size of you r rings — all w i t h o u t charge. N o o ther retailer even compares with this uncondi t iona l guarantee .

I undersell everyone in the business. I also carry many grades of d i amond tha t retailers normally do not s tock.

As you might already know, mos t jewelers use somewhere be tween a t w o to five h u n d r e d per cent

markup on diamonds. This except ional markup is necessary because of ext ravagant overhead and a constant decrease in the watch and repair business. T h e in t roduc t ion of the inexpensive watch has all

but e l iminated the lucrative watch sale; consequent ly , the retail jeweler must rely heavily on d i amond

sales for his profi ts . Since I have el iminated all overhead and provide my living th rough engineering, I can sell you an engagement ring of the finest qual i ty for a f rac t ion of the jeweler ' s price.

If at any t ime you would like to have a detailed exp lana t ion of d iamond grading and the factors which con t r ibu te to the price of a d iamond , please call for an a p p o i n t m e n t . I am sure tha t you will

benef i t f rom a d iamond explana t ion , and that you will be able to purchase the d i amond of your

choice with a degree of knowledge. Please bear in mind tha t you are in no way obl igated to purchase

f rom me simply because you have benef i ted f rom a d i amond explana t ion . I am looking forward to

meeting many of you this year, and I thank you kindly for you r considera t ion. Please save this copy of Anchor so you will have my phone number .

torically, are manifold. But two illustrations, suggested by Profes-sor Dykstra, I have found very penetrat ing.

HOW EASY it is for us to evade the mandate of practical and radical love toward men, by saying that it is our inner spiritual-ity which is the crucial thing we need. We can endlessly quote Bible verses to support our em-phasis, once we have made this nice distinction between the inner life and the realm of action in the world.

We quo t e Jesus' words telling us that even to gaze lustfully is as adul terous as the act of adultery, or that the poor will always be with us. Thereby we make our-selves, devout in our inner piety, the ones who are doing the thing that counts .

AND IT WORKS just as nicely in the opposite direction. How of ten we are conscious of the ambiguities of our motives, or the emptiness in our hearts, which is just not visible to men who look only at what we do and say.

And how easy it is, in the presence of our uneasy con-sciences, to just ify our lives by making the same old distinction, but this time quoting different Bible verses, or perhaps our favor-ite existentialist (both most likely out of contex t ) to make the realm of action in the world, our realm, the one that counts.

But understanding the roots of our distinctions, and divisions, does not just ify them. Nor does it resolve them.

I VENTURE to say that the practical division, which has reached tragic proport ions in Christian lives and communit ies , is in our day finding a healing of some power. Even at Hope, the last few years have seen a signifi-cant movement toward Christ 's people becoming " b o t h - a n d " people.

But perhaps we need some-thing yet deeper. Perhaps we need to be freed from the conceptual ruts that give us the impression that it still is a bifurcated "e i ther / o r " sort of matter .

In my next essay, I would like to share some thoughts as to how this might come about .

Doyle is awarded $19,000 to support study, teaching

A Frederick Cottrell Science Grant of nearly $19,000 has been given to Hope College by the Research Corporat ion to suppor t the work of Dr. Michael Doyle, associate professor of chemistry.

Doyle will use the funds to involve undergraduates in current work in chemistry and to train a post -doctorate s tudent in research and teaching.

"There are few formal pro-grams in existence in which a person can be trained in bo th teaching and research," according to Doyle. " I t is hoped that this new and unique program will not only be t t e r qual ify a post-doctor-ate s tudent for an academic career but also serve as a model for fu tu re programs," he said.

Research supported by the new grant will concern new ways to prepare chemicals.

Ninth St. noise annoys Hope dormitory residents by Peter Orbeton

The seven-week old status of 9th Street as a one-way thor-oughfare, resulting in increased traffic noise and lack of parking space, is occasioning f requent complaints f rom 9th Street resi-dents, including Hope students .

NINTH STREET was made one-way east f rom Van Raalte

'Milestone1 may

he diseontinued;

editor sou*; hi Editor 's note: The following analysis of the situation of the Milestone was written by Betty Jane Gaydos, a member of the Student Communicat ions Media Committee.

The Hope College Milestone has been without an editor or staff since Nov. 17. With the formal resignation of Linda Wiff as the 1972 editor, cont inuat ion of the Milestone is quest ionable.

THE POSITION of the Mile-stone as an effective and popular student publication has disinte-grated in the past ten years. Though students still seem to favor the cont inuat ion of the Milestone, s tudent participation as well as student and faculty coop-eration have declined.

Past editors and staff have found that the diminishing inter-est of s tudents and faculty is evident in their lack of coopera-tion in helping the Milestone staff meet publishing deadlines. The 1971 yearbook will not be re-leased until late December or early January.

THE STUDENT Communica-tions Media Commit tee , which oversees the operation of the an-chor, Milestone and Opus, remains uncertain about the fu ture of the Milestone. Contract commi tments with a publisher and photographer insure that there will be a 1972 Milestone, but unless an editor and a sufficient staff are found , it is unlikely that a high quality yearbook can be compiled.

The commit tee feels that be-cause of the past and present state of the Milestone, decisive policies for its future must be established. Past editors and staff members have recommended that because of the strain of the working condi-tions, there be a change in the

format of the Milestone. The pos-sibilities of turning the Milestone into an administrative-public rela-tions publication and narrowing the area of student material by one-third, or changing the book into an enlarged Opus are being considered.

RESEARCH into the status of other college yearbooks has re-vealed that a lack of s tudent and faculty interest is widespread. Both Albion College and Michigan State have turned their yearbooks into literary magazines only to return to the original format , which seems to indicate a high degree of s tudent disinterest in even innovative change.

As a student publication, the Milestone offers many possibilities for experience in the field of journalism. Its format is neither rigid nor closed to experimenta-tion.

STUDENTS are needed who are willing to dedicate part of their time to the creation of a student publication. But a student body and faculty who are willing to cooperate to insure the success of this publication are also need-ed.

The SCMC is accepting applica-tions for the positions of editor and staff. If these positions should remain vacant, the commit tee will be forced to consider discontinu-ing the Milestone. Inquiries and applications can be made to Dr. Richard VanderVelde, chairman of the SCMC, by noon on Thurs-day.

Avenue t o Columbia Ave. in Oc-tober when the city of Holland insti tuted a new traff ic pat tern designed to ease 8th Street traffic. The new arrangement made 9th Street a major t raff ic carrier.

Increased t raff ic noise caused by the new situation has been the main target of complaints f rom Hope students . The sound of down-shif t ing t rucks and traff ic accidents at the corner of 9th and Columbia continues all night and disrupts both s tudying and read-ing in Dykstra Hall, according to one resident.

DUMEZ COTTAGE residents who live in a room bordering the street have found it necessary to keep a fan going constantly in order to drown out the noise.

Another problem exacerbated by 9th Street 's new look is the lack of parking spaces around

campus. Parking in f ront of Dykstra is now illegal, leaving Columbia Avenue as the only a-vailable parking area near the dorm. One resident complained that when parking on Columbia, "one can't see the lights blink indicating that it 's t ime to go in ."

KEN QUIST, a s tudent who lives across f rom Dykstra, said that s tudents "who go over to Dykstra park their cars in our driveway and we can't get o u t . "

Crossing the street can be a problem in the face of all the traffic. Two Dykstra coeds con-fessed over a beer that getting back and forth from Skiles through all the traffic is difficult at times. Asked whether the re-turn trip from Skiles is usually more difficult , they refused to commen t .

MIAA coaches announce fall athletic awards

I he Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association coaches have announced their selections for the outstanding players of the 1971 fall season.

Named as the MIAA's most valuable player in football was Hope middle-guard Ted Rycenga, a three-time all-MIAA defensive lineman. Rycenga, at 6 3 " and 215 pounds, was instrumental in leading Hope's league-leading de-fense.

Hope players chosen to the 1971 all-league team were Jeff Winne, offensive guard; Greg Voss, offensive back; Ted Al-brecht, defensive end; Rycenga, defensive interior l ineman; and Doug Smith, defensive back.

Honorable mentions went to Dave Johnson and Jim Lamer, offensive ends; Pete Semeyn, guard; Chris Hahn, center; Jon Cons tan t , quar terback , and Ron Pos thuma, defensive interior line-man.

Greg Daniels was named Most Valuable Player in cross count ry . He and Phil Ceeley will represent Hope on the all-league cross coun-try team.

The league's most valuable player in soccer is Calvin's Don Buckholz. Hope athletes named to the first team of the 1971 all-league line-up are Rich Lopez on of fense and Tom Grundvig on defense. Those elected to the of-fensive second team were Dave Phillips and Mark Van Voorst.

Six juniors chosen

by Mark Van Oostenberg

An inspired Hope College bask-etball team powered their way to an exciting 88-86 t r iumph over Concordia Teacher 's College last Saturday night. The victory, the lirst of the season for the Dutch, evened their record at one and one.

THE F R E N Z I E D hometown rooters had much to cheer about during the entire contest. Every player on the team contr ibuted his lair share toward inspiring the Dutch to their best performance of the season. Dan Shinabarger thrilled the fans with his left-handed j u m p shot and near-mys-tical driving layups as he led all scorers with 29 points.

Lorenzo Howard, however, was the real key to Hope's victory. Howard's brilliant defensive and offensive play were the highlights of the evening. Howard's clutch free throws in the waning mo-ments of the game staved off a spirited Concordia rally.

HOWARD ALSO added 25 points to give Hope an awesome 1-2 punch in the back court . Shinabarger and Howard com-bined for well over half of Hope 's scoring.

Tom Wolters and Marty Snoap were ^ largely responsible for Hope's advantage in rebounding. Wolters grabbed 11 caroms and Snoap took nine.

THE CLOSE SCORE was indi-cative of the near-equality of all statistical aspects of the game.

Fall sports captains named Captains of the 1972 Hope

College fall sports teams have been announced .

Juniors Doug Smith and Dave Johnson will captain the footbal l team. Both are two year letter-men. Smith has been an all-Michigan Intercollegiate Athlet ic Association defensive safety as a junior and sophomore while John-son has been both a regular defen-sive and offensive end.

Juniors Greg Daniels and Brian Claxton will captain the defending MIAA champion cross count ry squad.^ Daniels was selected the MIAA's most valuable runner this past fall. Claxton was the team's leading runner in 1970.

Juniors Tom Grundvig and Dave Phillips will be captains of the soccer team. Grundvig was selected to the all-MIAA team this past fall.

Hope wrestlers lose opener to Valparaiso

Hope College's, wrestling team opened the 1971-72 season at home Wednesday against Val-paraiso College and lost 33-19.

The Dutchmen won only four out of ten matches. Four of the losses were pinned on f reshmen, which shows the inexperience of the team.

Freshman Hd Chavez opened the meet with a pin 6 :05 into the match. While four freshmen got pinned, Ed was one of two fresh-men to win matches. Classmate Kevin Boerman, the first heavy-weight over 200 pounds that Hope has had in many years, defeated his opponent on points 12-1. A bright future seems to be ahead for these two grapplers.

Veteran Rick Vanderlind de-feated his opponent 15-8, nearly pinning his man three times. Dick is acting captain until Rick Hine returns, hopeful ly before the Michigan Intercollegiate Athlet ic Association meet.

Wednesday saw the return of a past le t terman, Kevin Holleman. He returned with a bang, as he pinned his man with 6 :17 gone in the match.

Saturday Hope was scheduled to wrestle Schoolcraft Commun-ity, but rumor has it that they never found the gym and were unable to wrestle.

Hope shot 46 percent f rom the floor and Concordia shot 47 per-cent. Hope had 48 rebounds, while Concordia had 43. Hope sank 14 free shots as compared to 16 for the opposi t ion. The most impor tant near-equality consisted in the quant i ty of field goals. Hope College, in making two more field goals than Concordia , also came out on top of the near-equal score.

O the r impor tan t cont r ibuters to Hope 's potent of fense were Dave Harmelink, 12 points; Marty Snoap and T o m Wolters, eight

points; and finally, Jack Hankamp and Doug Edea with fou r each.
