add three new names to its list of faculty members. Mr. Raymond Smith, a law-school graduate, will teach a course in business law. At the present time he is municipal judge of Holland.

A graduate of Hope with the class of '4(>, Miss Francis Koeman will take over her duties as an in-structor in the biology department, teaching physiology and hygiene. Miss Koeman is now studying at the University of Minnesota.

Miss Jennie Spoelstra, a gradu-ate of Hope and registered nurse, will have charge of the clinic next semester and will assist Dr. Leen-houts. Miss Spoelstra, who is now-studying at the University of Kan-sas, will do some teaching in the biology department . She will take aver a course in Public School Health, as well as laboratory work n zoology. The clinic has grown

beyond expectations, and Miss Spoelstra will take over some of the detail work.

W.A.L. Plans February Party March Carnival

Elaine Meuusen, president of the W o m e n ' s A c t i v i t i e s League, re-cently announced tha t the all girls par ty held in the gym every year will be combined with the town girls overnight par ty and will be held during the l a t t e r p a r t of February.

E d i t o r i a l s

Improvement From The Ground Up Much has been said about the need for student participa-

tion and cooperation. Once again we broach the subject. We uige all students to express their views on how they would remodel and redecorate the basement of Van Raalte. Every-one is aware of the need for adequate lounge facilities, but plans for meeting this need are necessary first. Don't feel as if your suggestion has no merit, for it may be just the idea to complete another suggestion. Although you may think that your plan is too far-fetched or would involve too much expense, don t hesitate to turn it in. The administration is giving us a lot of leeway in planning this student project for the benefit of students. It is now up to us to cooperate. All suggestions turned in should be signed. So everybody get busy, and let's back this whole-heartedly with some good suggestions, rather than griping about existing conditions.

Well, Eas t is Eas t and West is

West, and whoever thought that

twains would all s top in Holland?

But here we are again to bring you

the very latest in t r i te talk and

timid twosomes following a some-

what prolonged absence — due to

circumstances beyond our control.

Natch!!

The sparkle in the eyes of Bar-

bara Bilkert, Holly Holleman, June

Meeusen, Edith Young and Norma

Kellogg may be a reflection f rom

that third finger le f t hand, f o r

these fa i r femmes can be added to

the list of " they ' re engaged, they're

lovely, they're taken!"

From a very "on the in" and con-fidential f reshman source, I have some information on the frolics of said group, Joan Ten Hove and Danny Paul, Marian Palen and Harold Schiable, Connie Hartman and Gerry Formsma and Dotty Milne and Roy Waltachenbach a re proof that tha t class moves in a quiet but " m y s t e r i o u s w a y , its wonders to per form." And — raise the flag, my friends, Mr. Bob Reach has now settled his most fickle but fond affections on one freshman,

Evelyn Miller.

Isn' t it a relief to be back to a nice little town a f t e r those buzzing big cities where some of us had the misfortune to spend a few of our fifteen days.

1. To Baxter John Elhart, Zee-

land, Michigan: With an eye to the

fu tu re remember this, Dorothy Dix

provides a very substantial living

by giving tha t same kind of advice

which you so graciously give gra tus

to any or all. Capitalize on your talents!

2. To Phyllis Voss: As an aid to a failing memory, some individuals write themselves short notes and place them at convenient locations around room.

3. To J u d y M i l l e r and Mar ie Buttler: The flood season doesn't usually appear until the spring. Are you t ry ing to get ahead of Mother N a t u r e ? You might ask the advice of Bob Wildman and Charles Newton for a similar situation ap-peared in their humble abode at Zwemer Hall.

To all new practice teachers, whose problems I understand and appreciate:

May your next semester be filled with many happy experiences at your various schools.

And now dear r e a d e r s , with exams only a few days away, may I wish you all the best of luck and s tuf f .

G. G. o-

Did you all have a nice vacation ?

Silly question now that I think

about it. J u s t being polite! Vries-

man had a wonderful time. He went

s tark-raving mad, worked all day,

went out all night, and just about made it back to school before he collapsed. Boy's Glee Club'couldn't wait to get s tar ted practicing. They were all br ight and eager Monday morning, the little beavers!!

association with the Yankee ele-

definition, some explanation be

made to thenT^as to the meaning

of the word yawl. At first, I was

highly amused by the jokes and

sarcasm extended to me by these

well-meaning people concerning the

word, which is, as everyone knows,

merely a shortened and much more

pleasant version of two words, you

and all. However, these jokes be-

came extremely "cliche" and very

dull, to be sure. I have listened to

They're Watching You! This past week Hope's student body had as its guests three

important personages from India. From time to time, we have been hosts to visitors from various parts of the globe, and as a student body we should be appreciative of this oppor-tunity of promoting better understanding.

During this past war, foreign peoples received many none-too-complimentary impressions of American youth through the conduct of some of our soldiers. This, of course, worked both ways. Therefore, we are grateful for this opportunity to eradicate many of these erroneous ideas. Many of our notions of the people of India have been molded pretty much by pictures of scantily clad mystics like Ghandi. However, a few minutes spent in conversation with men such as Mr! Jared Savarirayan with his quick wit and intelligent compre-hension of student life and its problems, convince one of the kinship of his interests and ideals to ours.

We read much these days of the value of a system of ex-change students with various foreign countries. It would be difficult to appraise the historic effect of such pilgrimages, but leaders are confident that the exchange of Chinese and American students was instrumental in a large measure for the establishment of the famed Chinese-American friendship. Since the war has made study on many foreign campuses impossible, America has become the intellectual Mecca of the world. At the present time, we are the only nation with fa-cilities adequate for this tidal wave of students. How impor-tant it is at this time, when the issue is so clearly cooperation or destruction, that we give these students the best training possible, that we make friends with them, and invite them into our homes and churches. National leaders hail this in-tellectual migration to our shores as a step in the direction of world peace in promoting mutual understanding. Let's see that it's used for that purpose.

Today the eyes of America are on India, and in turn, In-dia's eyes are on America for aid in the building of her future. The natural outcome of delegations such as the recent one from India, is the placement of many foreign students in our colleges and universities. These youth come to our country seeking knowledge and direction. They have much to offer us. What are we prepared to give them?

L. V. W.,

To Bob Lamon I direct this ques-tion: How many of your fifteen days were spent in Chicago's Dear-bom Station.

Midge and Johnny, now Mister and Missus, came back to Holland to find their home sweet home a colorful display of confett i and rice. Kilroy had struck again! You may quote me on this.

It has been the custom in the

past to include certain thoughts for the week in the column so in order not to disappoint anyone, I shall include a few of those casual com-ments.

Letter To The Editor Dear Editor,

In the past few issues of the Anchor, the pros and cons of danc-ing have been aired.

It seems peculiar to me that those who so highly favor it, say that there isn't anything else to do around here. "What would we do if we can't dance?" is there re-peated question. It 's ra ther s t range that those who don't dance, don't complain of lack of r e c r e a t i o n . What do they do in their spare t ime? Or don't they have a n y ? Is it just those who dance find t ime for recreation ? I think not. I am of the opinion that those who don't dance find other means of pleasure in the f ree evenings alloted to a busy student. If they find other ways of spending a few free hours, it seems to me those who dance

as if Kilroy's up there, too. Anyway j " " " " ^ 0 f t h e e ! t P r e S 8 i o n

wo'ro o-io^ I*. I fo r many years until I will not

even listen to his program. He is

repulsive to my sense of loyalties.

Indesd, his almost Northern mer-

cenary instincts in capitalizing on

this very nice word have so of-fended me that a t t imes I have found myself dr l :berately ref ra in-ing from using tlie word in the camp of the enemy for f ea r of be-ing termed a "professional South-erner ."

Yawl ig an informal, easy way of inquiring of a number of people what their actions will be, whether or not they will be a t home for a bit of conversation, or any related purpose. I t is a charmingly casual way of inquiring of the health of a whole family or even a football team.

If I were to meet someone and ask him, "How are yawl?" he would natural ly reply as to the s ta tus of the health of his wife, sweetheart , or otherwise, and his progeny, if any. He might even nform me of the case of distemper

his hound dog had last week. What a much easier way to s ta r t a con-versation than speaking of the weather. What a much more cor-dial way to greet one's fr iends.

If I wanted to know whether a group of people were accompany-ing me on a tr ip to a res taurant , dove shoot, or funeral , I would merely inquire, "Yawl coming?" This yawl refers to a group, I as-sure you, and not to any individual.

his common misconception of the Yanks is entirely incorrect. Yawl always re fe rs to a group, and not to an individual. If only an indi-vidual is present, his family, social set or organization is implied. I hope yawl don't take this the wrong way.

we're glad they ' re fixed. I t 's one of the nicest things about this campus.

Choir got off in a blaze of glory and groanings for 1947. Firs t th ing the opening sentence and Amen become different; also the two d rectors.

Now that Probst 's recital is fin ished, Mrs. Snow can stop eat ing nerve pills, and enjoy the rest ol' the semester. So can the res t ol us.

In the next issue of the. Anchor I would like to write my farewel article. This will be most g ra t i fy -ing, I'm sure, especially to the Boys Glee Club, and the Prof, May your New Year be br ighter — your voices — lighter, boys. Until .next time —

"Probs t "

should have very little difficulty doing likewise.

The rule of the college says there will be no dancing sponsored by the school. When each of us made ap-plication here, we knew, or should have known that . As long as we are students at Hope College, we should expect to abide by the rules. We don't break any of the laws of the land, and not expect to reap our just punishment. In the same light, then, should we expect to break the rule of the school and plan to get by with it ? Evidently, the founders of the school had a purpose in mak-ing this rule. Let us abide by their decision.

A Sophomore

Education for International Good Will A few short months ago the idea of another war would

lave been repudiated with the decisive resolution that we shall see to it that there will be no next war. There is, how-ever, a fatal line of progress of evil things. First they are abhorred, next they are tolerated, then they are embraced, t is not too soon to take preventive measures. The American

public, the American Press, yes, the faculty of Hope College, and the students of Hope College appear to have already picked our next victim. One hears it all about — yes, in class, in the halls and in our club meetings. One local paper has already by some means of unique expansion made a cruiser out of a small navy boat in the Darien incident. No, I am not "Red," in fact, I am not even "Pink." I believe, only, that the place of Russia demands special consideration and more pa-tience than many people are inclined to give. Let us not rush ahead blindly into the pitfall of war; but rather let us work and educate for peace.

"Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defenses of peace must be constructed," and from various angles, both practical and idealistic. Much of the prejudice existing in men's minds against "foreigners," and the misunderstandings and false judgments of other races and countries are due to wrong attitudes created during the educational period. Some of these impressions are some-times overcome as wider knowledge brings deeper under-standing, but in many cases education does not go far enough to rectify the errors. To this must be added the very serious consideration that education may be misdirected and used deliberately to foster isolationism and animosity. For these reasons alone it is very important that teachers should be alive to the possibilities of their work — to the vision of their opportunity not only to prepare their pupils to become suc-cessful individuals, but effective citizens of international soci-ety. Education, if it is to effectively lead the rising generation towards international understanding, must be built upon the BROAD FIRM FOUNDATIONS OF FAITH IN HUMAN BROTHERHOOD.

Did you say, Professor, that it didn't matter if you took a crack at Russia every chance you got? Student, did you say it didn't matter whether you criticized Russia at every opportunity that came along, and if the opportunity didn't arise that you made one? Do you both label every man

wish a progressive idea a 4<Red," or perhaps a "Pink?" The "Little leaven which leavenet^h the whole lump" is a parable of considerable significance in contemplating such criticism, don't you agree? ) r . h .

Telephonic Courtesy Have you called Voorhees Hall

lately ? Try dialing 9100. You get the busy signal— Well t ry dialing 9142— What ' s t h a t ? — do you get the busy signal for that number too? Be pat ient and t ry it again in a few minutes—you know how the average femme likes to gab when you get her into a conversa-tion.

What 's this, you say that you dialed the same two numbers and got the same results aga in? What a sad s ta te of affairs that is, and you really wanted to take tha t gal out this evening. Now don't get exasperated fellow, another few minutes wait will give you time to solve another one of those wrong problems tha t Prof. Kleis usually gets.

Now don't tell me you couldn't make with the "yak yak" a t h i n t ime? What ' s the mat ter with those gals over at Voorhees ? They know their way around socially and wouldn't break one of the fundamental rules of telephone etiquette of holding the phone. You just work out another one of those problems and call back again.

What ' s t h i s ? ? ? You really look like you a r e ready to t e a r the room apar t . Now I wouldn't say tha t about all the girls in Voor-hees. Sure you'll find one in every gang.

Why don't you forget the deal and really be a bright light in Mr. Kleis' class in the morning. Any-way you can buy yourself a new tie with the money you saved by not going out.

Now we are going to ask. What is the matter with the girls at Voorhees Hall, that they allow any girl or girls to hold the phone all evening. With just two phones ir that establishment of verbal whirl-winds. a person calling in from the outside gets more than frustrated on receiving the busy signal every-time they phone. So they want the housemother to sit by the phonr all evening so that no one will overuse i t? That wouldn't be quite fair to her.

Something has got to be done

about t ha t phone si tuation, be-cause it 's terrible. Why not ostri-cize any girl tha t holds the phones over her five minute allowance. When you stop to think how many fellows can ' t get through to the phone to ask for dates it runs pre t ty high. (That ' s an incentive right there) . If a fellow's t ry ing to dial " L " nothing is more defeat-ing than a continuous buzz in the lef t ear lobe. The wires are twisted somehow and I think the gals at Voorhees have to s t ra ighten them out among themselves.

Here a r e a few handy rules on the proper use of a telephone :-

(1) Do not call up people more frequent ly or keep them a t the phone longer than is necessary. You may have nothing to do, but the person at the o ther end may be extremely busy, yet too court-eous to say so.

(2) Guessing games were fun in grade school but the old "Guess who this i s ? " line is definitely out-moded as well as being rude.

(3) Ask distinctly f o r the per-son with whom you wish to speak. None of t he "Who is t h i s ? "

(4) If you are called, it saves time when you answer the tele-phone to say at once, " th is is John Van Somebody," without say in r "Hello".

(6) The straightforward girl of^ this atomic age has been known to ask for dates and with all the oarties coming up there will be more of that. Girls d o n t coo and goo and talk honey, coated and silly to the men at the other end of the line. The phone can take it but he c a n t Just ask him if he would care to go to such and such an activity and an acceptance will follow closer on the heels of poise than on a myriad of giggles.

(6) D o n t shout out the phone to get a point across. It only makes t more difficult for the recipient

to hear and also gives the rest of the girls in the dorm a flrst-hear-ing insight Into your affairs.

(7) Gals: let your motto be: v Less Gab; more Guys.

Unanimous

A Trip Around The World By Robert Birce

Ear ly one May morning, we lef t San Francisco in a converted

Dutch luxury liner. Our dest inat ion was, of course, unknown. Two

weeks later , a f t e r an uneventful t r ip in which schools of sharks , whales,

porpoises, and flying fish, crossing the Equa to r , and gain ing a day

crossing the Internat ional Date Line were the only exci t ing things to

happen, we arr ived a t Wellington, New Zealand. A f t e r a day or two

layover, we moved on to Fremant le , Aus t ra l ia . One day was all t h a t

we s tayed there , and then we were on our way aga in . News began

to circulate around the ship that some of the t roops were going to

Afr ica and some to I ran . The boat pulled into Columbo, Ceylon, and

jus t before debarkat ion, we learned tha t we were the lucky ones to be

sent to I ran . Very few of us had heard about the place, so we were

r a the r eage r to see it, and yet r a the r hes i tant because we didn' t know |

quite what to expect.

A f t e r a week's s tay in Columbo, we s ta r ted up the-coast of India

fo r our last stop, but we had to put in a t Bombay for food and water .

This was to be our last stop, fo r within the next two weeks we s ta r ted

up the Sha t t l A r a b river, which empt ies into the Pers ian Gulf. As soon

as we entered the mouth of the river, we could feel the oppressive heat,

and it was then only about 9:00 in the morning. The f a r t he r up the

r iver we went , the hot ter it became. The wind when it blew was like the

blast f rom an open furnace . F i n a l l y . a t about 2:00 in the a f te rnoon,

we tied up at the dock at Khor ramshahr . Since nobody worked in the

heat of the a f t e rnoon , we had to wait until dusk before we disembarked.

We were then herded into t rucks and driven to .» large a rea coverec

with, ten ts , which were to be our homes for \sv ks to come. The entire

t r ip had taken us a little over seven weeks to comple.e .

W-e were given a week in which to acclimatize ourselves, and then

we were put to work. Our job was to assemble t rucks fo r the Russians

under the lend lease p rogram. Short ly before we arr ived there, the

Army had taken over a Oeneral Motors truck assembly plant, and we

were to share the work with another outfi t . The production of the

plant at tha t t ime was only 000 t rucks a inout.i, bui uvo years later,

the production had increased to over 0,000 t rucks per month.

Dur ing the summer months , we worked only in the mornings and

a t night , because the ext reme t empe ra tu r e s of 140" and 150 dur ing

the mid a f t e rnoons , would make the tools too hot to handle except

with gloves. A person could never be seen to pe i sp . re except about the

face and hands, for the perspirat ion would evapora te almost immedi-

ately f rom his sh i r t leaving a white mark . At night it would cool to

about 100°, but even at tha t , it was r a the r hard to ge l to sleep.

About two hundred miles f rom K h o r r a m s h a h r is a town called

Dizful, the city of the blind, in which most of the people live under-

ground because of the heat . It is conceded to be the hottest place in

the world. Between this town and K h o r r a m s h a h r there was nothing

but desert , and the wind blowing over -the hot sand didn't cool off very

much. The wind picked up a lot of tha t sand and deposited it in every-

thing. F o r seven months of the year, there wouldn't be a cloud in the

sky. Then fo r one month before and a f t e r the th ree -month long rainy-

season, t he re would be fair ly decent weather . Because of the bad liv-

ing, conditions, we were given rest t r ips to Teheran and to Tel Aviv, of

which we all took advantage .

Two years f rom the day we left San Francisco, we left Khorram-

shahr . We went f rom Khor ramshahr to Suez by boat, f rom Suez to

Cairo by t ruck convoy, f rom Cairo to P o r t Said by t ra in , and then on

a boat again . We spent a lmost two weeks in Cairo and during that

t ime saw quite a bit of the city and also the Py ramids and Sphinx.

From Port Said we traveled to Naples where we picked up more per-

sonnel to be re turned to the S ta tes , and f rom Naples to New York.

This t ime the t r ip took us only six weeks. F rom New York we were

given our fu r loughs , and the outfit was. to reassemble in Cal i fornia . On

the way back to our Cal ifornia s ta t ion, the t ra in had to pass th rough

San Francisco, and in so doing, we completed our t r ip around the world.

in the p a s t m o n t h the groups agreed to unite and work toge ther to achicve federal world govern-ment . A p la t form to th is end was d rawn up by the group.

The p la t form s t a t e s t ha t a world government , federal and democratic in fo rm, with laws applicable to individuals is needed. This govern-

ment would have jurisdict ion over world affa i rs , but na t ions would re ta in j u r i s d i c t i o n over national affairs . The government would have popularly elected legislative, judi-cial and executive bodies. All na-tions w o u l d be i n v i t e d to par-t icipate.

US Educational Crisis

With almost 1,400,000 veterans a t tending colleges and universit ies this year , the American educational system is "in the g r a v e s t crisis in its h is tory ," according to an article in the Sa tu rday Evening Tost.

Speaking off the record and re-gre t fu l ly , a number of educators predict such a t igh ten ing of the => tuat ion that many American girls presently of college age will never be allowed to mat r icu la te , " the ar t i d e continues.

Another wri ter — William Mac-Kaye — in his art icle, "Cris is at the Colleges," wri tes tha t "main-s t a t e inst i tut ions a re r e fus ing ad-mission to ou t -of - s ta te women, and it seems inevitable tha t these schools will clamp down f u r t h e r . "

Colleges do not have the facili-ties, housing, ins t ruc tors or even classrooms to handle this huge number. The housing shor t age af -

^ fects mostly the women s tudents

( because it has been " t r a d i t i o n " to have "supervised" housing for

! girls, while men can live any place ! where "walls keep out the weather . "

HOPE TAKES OVER Ml A A LEAD Hope Defeats Kazoo 55-46

In See Saw Battle, Jan. 10 Hope had to do it the ha rd way

last F r iday night . A f t e r t ra i l ing

Kalamazoo f o r over half the game,

she came back very s t rongly to

gain a 55-46 decision. Kalamazoo

represented by f a r the biggest

block in Hope 's pa th back to the

MIAA championship. Kazoo had

downed Adrian, Hillsdale, and Al-

ma before fac ing Hope.

De Vet te got Hope off on the

r ight foot with two quick buckets.

Kazoo came r ight back and made

it 5-4. The teams then t raded bas-

kets up to 10-9 in Hope's favor .

The Dutch kept the lead unti l Ka-

zoo took over 16-14. They held on

to a 4 or 6-point lead fo r the re-

mainder of the half which ended

80-26.

Hope Reorganizes

Club For Varsity The Vars i ty Club was recent ly

reorganized with Coach Al Vander

Bush ac t ing as sponsor. The club

is open to all men who have won

ei ther a m a j o r or a minor l e t t e r

here a t Hope College.

The principles of the club a r e

as fol lows: 1. To promote a th le t ics

for all s tuden t s with the s t ress on

good spor tsmanship . 2. To help

keep Hope 's campus beaut i fu l . 3.

To t ry and influence other a th le tes

to come here to school.

A commit tee has been named to

act as the governing board f o r the

club. The following men will act

on tha t board: Roy Davis, Bill

Draper, and Clarence Hopkins.

The following men a re in cha rge of commit tees : Don Ladewig, t a g s ; Jack Yoemans, par t ies ; Don Mul-der, basketba l l ; Ray Heemst ra , c igare t te cans ; Don Schreimer , s igns; Bud Koranda, publicity.

The play dur ing the first half

was very even as the score indi-

cates. Hope was a little f a s t e r , but

the Hornets held the edge under

the boards. Kalamazoo w a s very successfully working the ball in close to Hope's basket and tak ing many shor t shots.

The second half s t a r t ed with Kazoo h i t t ing several very long shots. A f t e r five minutes had past they had built up a 38-31 lead. From tha t point on Hope com-pletely dominated the game. Kala-mazoo got nothing but a f ew long shots as Hope's defense t ightened and bottled up the center . Hope had possession of the ball almost all the time, thanks to her control of the backboards. With e ight min-utes lef t to play Hope took the lead 42-41, accompanied by a t re-mendous roar f rom the Holland crowd. Dur ing the remainder of the g a m e Hope raced on to a 55-46 victory while the Kalamazoo coach and p layers argued with the offi-cials.

Russ De Vette played a fine all around g a m e and walked off with the scoring honors with 23 points. Herk Buter ' s play under the offen-sive board dur ing the second half was very good. Don Scholten also ra tes mention for his defensive board work. Don Mulder, a lways cool under pressure, set up many Hope scores while pu t t i ng in 10 points himself .

The scoring was very evenly di-vided among Kalamazoo players. Thomson was probably the i r grea t -est th rea t with his pivot shots. Emrick and Stanski , Kalamazoo 's f r e shmen guards , were good on long shots. Hinkley, who is usu-ally a high scorer, was completely checked. App played a fine game at fo rward . Phone 2821

Albion Cagers Bow

To Hope Quintet Hope bounced back f rom i ts West-

ern defea t with an easy 49-36 win

over Albion. This was Hope's see-

on J confere ice win in as many

t rys . The team was not playing

its finest brand of ball, but t ight

defensive work kept the Britons

well under control. Albion was a

co-champion with Hope in the

MIAA last year. She gave Hope

one of her two conference beat ings.

The scoring was very slow in

the opening minutes. Albion took

a one-point lead. Hope soon

passed her and was never again

headed. A f t e r 13 minutes of play

the score was only 11-7. Hope was

ge t t i ng good fas t breaks but couldn't

seem to hit her shots. The f an -

shaped backboards in the Albion gym may have been part of the trouble. However, by half t ime Hope had built up a fair ly sa fe advan tage as she led 25-13.

The second half scoring was much closer, but the Britons never gave the Dutch much to worry-about . Hope always held at least

a ten-point advantage. Both teams subs t i tu ted freely toward the end of the game. All of Hope's play-ers saw action.

Don Mulder was the s ta r of the evening as he continued to sharpen his shoot ing eye. He hit long shots f o r 18 points and was his usual self handling the ball. Russ De Vet te , a l i t t le of! his usual fo rm, scored 9 points while Herk Buter pulled in with 8.

Isaac, Albion's one-time All-MIAA guard , led his team with 10 points. Moon, thei r big center , managed to get 8 though he was completely checked in the first half .

M I A A Standings In MIAA basketball g a m e s

played over t h e Chr is tmas holidays, Hope College maintained i ts top spot in the league, despite i ts loss to Western Michigan College. Hope has a season record of seven wins and a single loss agains t Kalama-zoo College's th ree wins and five losses. These figures include both i n f e r e n c e and non-conference play.

Albion was the most active over the vacat ion. However, most of their opponents were non-confer-ence. The Britons defeated Hills-dale, 53-43, f o r their second MIAA win and then dropped a 49-36 en-counter with Hope. On a two-game trip into Ohio Albion defea ted Kent Sta te , 54-48 but lost to Akron by a 73-51 score.

Kalamazoo College continued to rate in the top spot by thumping Alma 60-51 and also tak ing Hills-dale into camp, 56-40. However, '.he Hornets now hold second place a f te r losing to Hope, 55-46. The Kazooks also took on Creighton of Nebraska but came out on the short end of a 64-42 score.

Lawrence Tech, the top t eam of the s t a t e with an undefeated sea-.on so f a r , took hapless Adrian foi iwo games in a row, 53-47 and 60-36, fo r the only oilier games played that concern MIAA teams.

I t ' s Sa tu rday morning and only an hour before deadline, but I

put off wr i t ing the column purposely. The whole problem revolves

around the sea t ing or ticket a r r a n g e m e n t , which we predicted would

be a headache. I'm sure no one envies Prof . Klies in his position

between the devil and the deep blue sea. I'm sure he will admit the

Western se tup smirked sl ightly of something which isn' t good. And

I 'm sure the problem could be worked out, still, more sat isfactor i ly .

No mat t e r what anyone says or thinks, the Armory is jus t so big and

will hold but 1100 people, no more. There are more s tudents than t ha t ,

plus the facul ty and reserved section, which takes no mathemat ics to

deduct t ha t all cannot get in. So why not face it. Why make more

enemies every game with the continuous moving around and out of

people, a certain class of people, namely the s tudents . I say let only

50f/r of the s tudents go to each game and keep the o thers out; at least

tha t per cent will have a seat . Or, make s tudents sign a roster before

each game, or get a ticket punched, and only those would be admit ted.

Be hard-boiled B E F O R E a game, not a f t e r the spec ta to r is already-

inside. I t ' s hard for anyone to stand while there a re vacant seats being

reserved f o r a certain class of people who could pay an exhorbi tant

price, and feel f ree U) arr ive at any t ime dur ing the game, yes, even

dur ing the half, and still get a seat , at the expense of the lower class,

namely the student , whose money is apparen t ly of a worthless na ture .

And I am sure tha t the ANCHOR, not being worthy of a seat at the

desk, will find it impossible to give any th ing but box scores on f u t u r e

games !

Hope cer tainly played a marvelous ball game aga ins t Kalamazoo.

Only one slur, bad spor tsmanship, not necessarily by the teams, but by

the crowds. I am sure the Hornet following will be much more cultured

and refined.

When this ANCHOR is published Hope will have played Western

fo r the second time, and will probably have dropped the i r second contest

of the year to a ball club that is really hot. Tomorrow the Dutch t ravel

to Alma, where they will no doubt clean up a Scot tr ibe. Next Thurs-

day Albion arr ives to receive their second defea t at the hands of the

Dutchmen, and on Sa turday Hope plays a re turn match with Michigan

Normal , which should be a t ight but victorious contest .

The Dutchmen will have comparat ively smooth sai l ing until they

travel to the Celery City to play a re tu rn game with Kazoo on the 14th

of Februa ry . What a ball game tha t will be!

Coach Vanderbush has issued the first thin-clad call, which hap-

pens to be a good sign that spr ing is jus t around the comer , a long

corner. When 1 take the tennis racquet out of moth balls I'll know tha t

Gov. Sigler has decreed the opening of another season. I only hope the

good governor doesn't get wind of the Armory mess, fo r he'll send

one of his invest igat ing commit tees over post haste and probably un-

cover all kinds of g r a f t . Which is only my way of s ay ing let 's laugh

at the whole thing, it is a f t e r all only a basketball game . Prof. Klies

told me at the half that the only person at the game who wasn't mad

at him was Kilroy's sister, Kiljoy!

Young of Hillsdale was named the most valuable player in the

MIAA. He deserved it, as the football players will tell you. Michigan

has but one undefeated team, Lawrence Tech. The Universi ty of Michi-

gan basketball team will end up high in the Big Nine Basketball

s tandings . Hope s tudents should take more interest in horsebackriding;

it 's one of the best spor ts I know of.

It is rumored that the citizens of Holland are " t a l k i n g " about the

need for a field house. They have been doing this fo r ten years. I am

very happy, fo r now my children will be able to play any sport the i r

hear t desires in a fine, well equipped building, in 1965!

Broncos Are Fatal To Winning Streak

Broncos Are Fatal To Winning Streak

Hope had jus t a li t t le more than she could handle J a n u a r y 2 as she lost a ha rd- fought 76-60 decision to Western Michigan. No m a t t e r how much pressure Hope turned on. Western could a lways come up with a little more. This game ended Hope's winning s t reak a t 14 games and ran the Broncos' to 8 where it ended a f ew days la ter .

Hope's team, pe rhaps o v e r l y keyed fo r the game, s ta r ted r a the r poorly and gave Western a 7-1

lead. Although Hope never led, she matched Western point for point for the remainder of the half. A f t e r ten minutes the score read 17-16. Western then pulled ahead 30-23. Hope came r igh t back and played her finest ball jus t before the half . With one minute to go the score was 38-36. Western met the threa t and dumped in two quick buckets which lef t the score 42-36 at the lalf.

The second half found Western slowly but surely building up a g rea te r lead. Hope was ge t t ing very few short shots and wasn ' t clicking on her long ones. Hope's defense was lagging slightly as Western developed many two and even three-on-one fas t breaks. With ten minutes to go the score had w.dened to 58-46. A f t e r this Hope never drew closer than 11 points as the game ran out to its inevitable end.

The Broncos, who went into the game ranked as the t en th best team in the country, were paced by thei r Ail-American Harold Gensichen. He gave everyone a lesson in long

j shots a s he scored 20 points. Don | Boven and Mel VanDis gave West-j e m more height under the boards than Hope could handle. They also scored 17 and 14 points respective-ly. VanDis put on a show for the f a n s by shoving a f ew shots through the hoop before the game.

De Vette, Van Dis, and Mulder led Hope's a t tack . They all played good games and scored 46 of 60 points. Herk Buter s t a r t ed well at center, but his play was limited by too many fouls. Chuck Ploegs-ma, subs t i tu te guard , worked well under the defensive board. Hope played well individually and as a team but as Coach Hinga said con-cerning Western , "They play the same s tyle game we do only a lot more of it ."

Changes a re go-ing to .be. made to enlarge the Kletz. and men's lounge into one huge Igunge or whatever else may be sugg^sUs^L ; ldeas for th is pro-cedure prompted the ipainpus ques-tion for this ANCHOR issue.

ERNIE POST and MARY EL-L E N BROWER; We'd like to see one large room with booths and a soda bar (like Wade's Drug Store) at one side — plenty of lounge chairs on the other side. The color scheme should be done in soothing shades, with sof t lighting and dark comers . Or on one end have indi-rect lighting and on the other end, no lighting.

MARGE LUCKING: I would like to see the Kletz enlarged, but a separate room f rom the lounge; however, a door would lead into the lounge. The two rooms would be carried out in the same rustic theme with knotty pine walls and maple furni ture . Flashy striped drapes and seat covers would blend with the dominant color of red as portrayed by the red leather seat covers in the Kletz.

BOB NYBOER: The Kletz and lounge should be one room with the soda bar where the store room is now. Plenty of easy lounge chairs should adorn the room, and tables and chairs near the bar. Baby blue walls with a dark blue ceiling would be the background f o r the dominant blue color. I'd like

to have an ar t is t paint on th( walls.

SIBLEY, SIBLEY, and BRUN STETTER: We'd like one huge lounge with the Kletz a t the same end, only enlarged. Also, booths if possible. The room should be mod-e m , complete with ping-pong tables and a juke box. The wainscoting would be of knotty pine, while en-larged campus photos of sports, etc., would adorn the upper half of the walls. P.S. Van Ry would agree. Natch!

So here a re a few ideas to s ta r t you all thinking. I t 's going to be YOUR lounge, and YOUR interest in it is appreciated.

Ginny Hemmes.

Sorosites gathered for thei r an-lual winter election t e i Friday, lanuary 10 a t 4:00 o'clock in the Sigma Sigma room. The theme >f the tea was DANCING . DIA-MONDS, honoring the recent en-jagements of Bobbe Bilkert to Don Mulder, and Holly Holleman to Frederick March; also the pin-ning of Bob Van Zanten to Bette Van Dyke.

The p r o g r a m s w i t h diamond rings glistening on the covers made in excellent portrayal of the theme, lolly Holleman read the scr iptures and J e a n - S n o w s a n g f o r the honored guests , " B e c a u s e " and 'Through the Years." Kay Mc-Queen informed us of the history s u p e r s t i t i o n s and kinds of d;a-nonds. The meeting was then ad-ioumed to the tea.

DELPHI

Delphians hopped onto individual tobaggans and went out on a win-ter sports spree in last Fr iday night 's meeting. Af te r devotions led by Phyllis Mulder, Amy Koning gave with some info on skat ing and skiing. Amy told about the practice of these sports in several countries and about a number of organiza-tions in these fields. Elaine Meeu-sen and L u e l l a P y l e murdered several radio commercials and mag-azine advertisements in a humor paper which proved a glorified account of the w o n d e r s of the Slicker Skater Reducing Course.

Penguins and snowmen reposing in the sof t glow of the Northern lights greeted the guests of Emer-wnian, on the night of J anua ry 11, t» the banquet hall of the "Emer-sonian Igloo" located in the hear t of ihe Northern Winter Wonderland.

Following the North Pole guide ind nar ra to r , Ade Bos, those pres-snt were taken on a n */Arctic Trav-jlogue," f ea tu r ing Craig, Van Zan-;en in a pantomine of difficulties in search of his missing subsistence : " :heck. F i r s t aiihong the notable en-counters was the touching scene of Oraig f o n d l y g a z i n g a t . Lena, , placidly milking a goat while f rom . . jver the Italian hills rang the deep /oice of Bill Vander Yacht, singing,

• 'Lena f rom Pales t r ina ."

Moving along the path towards .he North Pole, the country changes o war torn Germany and the scene

becomes a German DP camp. Here t is tha t Craig, with grea t remorse, views and listens to the interview-ing of German DP's who a r e rela-tives of Hope professors. Relieved •vhen this scene fades away, ofl#-hero moves on

derance and the night lile^of ^ grad next occupied Craig 's ' t i i t e . ' I t was hear tha t he heard Maestro Herb Ritsema's symphonic rendi-tion of "Mozart Matriculates."

The end of the trail neared as the marvels of the Northern Win-te r Wonderland came into view. Our hero collapsed on the frozen floor of the Nor th when he learned tha t his check had been returned to the sender. As the scene faded into history, the sof t s t ra ins of "Win-ter Wonderland," sung by the Em-ersonian Octet, floated out over the snow covered plain to bring to an ironic close our Arctic adventure.

ARCADIAN

The Arcadians held their regu-lar meeting a f t e r the basketball tourney, J anua ry 9. In the business meeting, more plans were laid for the coming par ty .

Alex Ebneth presented the hu-morous paper with quite a bit of audience participation. The serious paper was given by Dennis Shoe-maker. I t was an excellent descrip-tion of the historical background and significance of the American one cent piece.

Bill Geiger played his original music f o r the new Arcadian song. His is the first entry in the compe-tition fo r words and music for the new song. I t was announced that a prize of five dollars will be given to the wri ter of the best words and also to the composer of the best music .
