Orchestra Offers Concert Tonight Mr. Morrette Rider of the music department has announced that a fall concert, the first in a series, will be presented tonight by the Hope College Orchestra. The con- cert, which will be the first public appearance made by the orchestra, will be held in the College Chapsl at 8:15 p.m. Mr. Rider, director of both the band and orchestra, stated that five selections will be presented.

Mr. Rider said that this first con- cert will last approximately one and a half hours. The Musical Arts club will be in charge of ushering. Tentative plans have been made to feature student and faculty solo- ists at the concerts which will be held the second semester. The or- chestra's plans also include accom- panying the Zeeland Chorus in the Messiah the first week in Decem- ber as well as accompanying Hope College's Messiah Choir presenta- tion. Pi Kappa Delta Plans First Meeting of Year The Hope College Chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, National Forensic Honor Society, will hold its first meeting of the current year on Wednesday, November 11), at the home of Dr. and Mrs. William Schrier, (55 West 15th Street. Plans for the coming year will be discussed, followed by a social hour. Milestone Staff Asks Cooperation The Milestone's picture-taking is proceeding steadily but not as speedily as was hoped. By this eve- ning all students in any Freshman or Sophomore English class will have been given an opportunity to have their picture taken. However, according to the latest figures hard- ly two-thirds of these turned up for their appointments. The Milestone will probably hand out one more appointment to those who missed on the first round. Be- yond that the students will have to make special arrangements or be omitted from the yearbook. Betty Boelkins and Dorothy Da- vis are taking charge of much of the work connected with the Mile- stone pictures. The Milestone edi- tors urge the cooperation of the student body so these pictures will be out of the way by Thanksgiving vacation. Sophs, Frosh Prepare For Nykerk Cup Contest Class spirit will run high when" the annual Nykerk Cup Contest is held in the Holland High School auditorium on Monday evening, November 24. As last year's losers | of the cup, the sophomores are just as anxious to receive the coveted cup as the freshmen, who want to redeem their class after having lost the pull. Mildred Vermaire, general chair- man of the contest, discloses that both classes are secretly preparing their entries in the field of music, oratory, and dramatics. The num- bers presented will be judged on a percentage basis. The play will re- ceive 50#, the musical selection 25#, and the oration 25 f /r. Don Mulder, Student Council president, will present the cup to the winning class. Marion Reichert is acting as head coach for the sophomores with sen- ior Kay Steketee assisting her. Working with the freshmen are the freshman coach Eleanor Short and junior coach Peggy Prins. The Nykerk Cup Contest was started in 1936 by the late J. B. Nykerk, Dean of Men at Hope, when the girls wanted some type of contest to compare with the boys' pull. Dr. Nykerk donated the cup which has been passed from class to class. Freshmen Obtain Music Scholarships Donna Mae Speet of Holland and Jeanne Ver Beek of Muskegon were announced as the winners of the Freshman music scholarships by Prof. Robert Cavenaugh. The con- test was held October 30 in Hope Memorial Chapel. The Freshman voice and piano scholarships en- title the winners to a year's tuition in the Hope College School of Music. Donna, soprano, is a graduate of Holland High School. She is a ma- jor in music. Her winning selec- tion was "Take Joy Home" by Bessler. Jeanne, winner of the piano scholarship, is a graduate of Mus- kegon High School where she was active in orchestra and choir. She is also majoring in music. Her con- test number was "The First Move- ment of the A Minor Concerto" by Grieg. Other piano contestants were Kathy Veltman of Winterset, Iowa, Alicia Van Zoeren, Schenectady, New York, and Betty Cookman, Auburn, New York. Other voice contestants were Leonard Schou- ten, Waupun, Wisconsin, Barbara Johnson, Plainwell, Michigan, and James Knoll, Holland. Hope's Trustees Approve Erection of 4 Buildings Board of Trustees Orders Early Start On Two Buildings Dr. Irwin J. Lubbers Voogd Announces Plans for New Sociology Club Dr. Henry Voogd of the Sociology Department recently announced that plans are being formulated for the organization of a Sociology Club on the campus. A poll of Sociology students was taken re- cently to determine to some extent the amount of interest among the members of the student body. Time and place of meeting will be determined by the members after formal organization takes place. Meetings will feature guest speakers from the realm of social work, and attempts will be made to arrange field trips in order to ob- serve some of the problems facing social workers and the methods they employ in solving these social maladjustments. P. & M. Presents 'Imaginary Invalid' "The Imaginary Invalid" will be presented Wednesday and Thurs- day evenings, Nov. 19 and 20 in the Holland High School Auditorium at eight o'clock. The merits of this play and the ability of the director and cast forecast an excellent pro- duction. The play was written by the pop- ular French dramatist, Moliere, in 1643. The main theme of the play is the absurdity of the then cur- rent practice of medicine. Moliere satirizes the medical profession of his day in a pitiless but good hu- mored way. It is interesting to note that Moliere died shortly after giving a performance in the title role of this play. IRC Studies UN In Recent Confab "Is the UNO disintegrating?" "Can the UNO prevent war?" These were the questions which provoked a lively discussion at last week's meeting of the International Relations Club. The obstructionist policy of Soviet Russia was singled out as the major obstacle threaten- ing the success of the UNO. Henry Shaw suggested that the UNO by- pass Russia and carry on without her. This was deemed impractical by George Curtis who recom- mended the application of Christian principles in our dealings with Russia. Others suggested that a compromise between capitalism and communism was necessary, or that the UNO must be changed into real world government. Miss Metta J. Ross, club sponsor, pointed out that there was still hope for the UNO and that its success would to a large extent be determined by the active interest of all citizens. Slide films explaining the UNO were shown by Arthur Ponstein and Bob Major. Next Wednesday afternoon, November 19, at 4 o'clock the In- ternational Relations Club will dis- cuss the Palestine question. Frosh Relinquish Pots At Burning of Green Friday, November 21st, will be the last time that the Class of "51" will have to "pot" to the up- perclassmen, as the traditional burning of the green will take place that evening. Bernard Scott has arranged for a big bonfire on the athletic field to take care of the large number of "pots" which will have to be thrown in. A pro- gram in the gym will follow at which consequences will be handed out to Frosh who have not worn their "pots." Anna Vander Kolk will have a good store of punish- ments on hand for the negligent Frosh. Arcadian President Announces Victory Virgil Dykstra, President of the Arcadian Fraternity, announced re- cently that the Arcadians had won second place in the first Michigan Inter-Fraternity Sing. Last April the Arcadians won first place for the fraternities in the Hope All-College Sing and thus won the right to compete in the State Contest. A recording was made and sent to Detroit to be en- tered in the State Contest. The various recordings were played over the air on Sunday afternoon, October 26, on the program "Fra- ternally Yours," over a Detroit station. First place in the contest was awarded to the Michigan Alpha chapter of Phi Delta Theta at the University of Michigan. It is note- worthy that the fraternity song of the Arcadians which was entered in the contest was written by pres- ent members of the fraternity. Hope Receives Oscar In Community Drive An Oscar has been presented to Hope College as a 1947 Community Chest Campaign award for fulfill- ing its quota by contributing a to- tal of $785. For this campaign captains were appointed through- out the different sections of Hol- land by Carl Andreasen, chairman for the drive. The local campaign closed October 24 after a collection of $25,055 had been made. Miss Nella Meyer was chairman of the drive for Hope College and Wes- tern Theological Seminary. She was assisted by ten other faculty members. Hope College will embark on a two million dollar building pro- gram which calls for the immedi- ate construction of two buildings and the erecting of two more at a later date. Dr. Lubbers recently an- nounced. Dr. Lubbers revealed that it a recent meeting of the Hope College Board of Trustees, two res- olutions were approved. The first, he said, stated "that four major buildings be built as soon as pos- sible" and the second "that a wom- en's dormitory and central heating •)lant be constructed immediately." Dr. Lubbers believes it is imper- ative that the building of the new women's dormitory begin at an 3arly date because of the increased 2nrollment. At present the college ?irls are housed in six separate buildings, namely. Beach and Fair- banks cottages and Columbia, Van Vleck, Voorhees, and West Halls. West Hall is the former East Jun- ior High School which is unsuit- able as a permanent dormitory. Van Vleck Music Hall Voorhees will remain a dormi- tory for women, and upon comple- tion of the present program Van Vleck Hall, the oldest building on Hope's campus, will be converted into a place to house the rapidly expanding music department, it was decided. Dr. Lubbers also stated that this new addition to the campus will contain dining facili- ties which will adequately cover all needs of the college that are now being partially met by the Temple building. Hope College holds only a temporary lease on this structure. The finances for this part of the expansion program will be met with Hope's share in the United Advance drive currently being held by the Reformed Church. This drive, which calls for two and a half million dollars, two million of which has already been subscribed in cash or pledges, will net the col- lege approximately $330,000. This Continued on Page 4. Hillegonds Chosen Blue Key Member William Hillegonds of Chicago, Illinois, has been elected to Blue Key, Men's National Honorary So- ciety. This was announced at the October 25 meeting held at the Dutch Mill. Hillegonds has been a leader in many campus organiza- tions. He is at present president of the YMCA, was president of the Sophomore Class, and is a member of Fraternal Society. The addition of Hillegonds increases the Blue Key membership to 13 men. Are You a Good Roommate? This Quiz Grades You As Hermit — Or Ideal Dorm Companion One of the most important col- lege courses isn't listed in any cata- logue but it might be called "Living With A Roommate." Just in case your roomie is too polite to tell better give yourself a quick chec- up. Answer "No" or "Yes" to these Varsity Magazine questions. If you answer "No" to at least 11, you're a pretty fair roommate; 13 to 17 means you're wonderful; more than 17 indicates you're too good to be true. If, on the other hand, your "No's" are below 9, suggest that you become a hermit. 1. Do you lose your temper easily? 2. Do you sulk 3. Do you talk too much? 4. Do you read out loud? 5. Do you gossip? ..... - 6. Do you fail to consider his (or her) likes and dislikes? .... 7. Do you expect to be included in his invitations? 8. Do you brag about your work, friends or social position? 9. Do you rely on your roommate for amusement? 10. Do you talk too much about heart interests? 11. Do you always talk about your troubles? 12. Do you try to be the boss? 13. Do you ask questions about personal matters? 14. Do you share his interests? 15. Do you lack respect for your roommate's privacy? 16. Do you play the radio continu- ally? 17. Do you take the best drawers and hog the closet space? .... 18. Do you litter the room? 19. Do you neglect cleaning up after a party? 20. Do you forget to pay half of mutual expenses? 'Y' Chooses South Sudan For Annual Mission Drive The Annual Mission Drive spon- sored by the YWCA and YMCA on campus has selected South Su- dan as the recipient of its funds for this year. South Sudan is an entirely new mission field for the Reformed Church, having been re- cently approved by the Board of Foreign Missions with the consul- tation of the General Synod. Ac- cording to Judy Mulder and Russ Norden, the Y co-chairmen of the drive, the date of the drive and the definite use of the money will re- main a secret. The portion of the Sudan Mis- sion area assigned to the Reformed Church and the part Hope will be aiding will probably be in the southeastern part of South Sudan between the Nile River and Ethi- opia and possibly extending into Ethiopia. The people here are primitive Negroes who live a pas- toral or agricultural life. The mis- sionaries will have to start from "scratch" in Sudan as the people have superstitious fears and ta- boos. They are animists, believing in the good spirits but particularly the evil spirits about them. The Sudan is under the domi- nance of Egypt and Great Britain, the latter having the controlling voice. Fortunately the government holds a most favorable attitude to- ward Protestant Missions. It sub- sidizes the Mission schools and opens no schools of its own where mission schools exist. The Mission Drive is not new on Hope's campus. The project was in- augurated on February 6, 1917, on an offer of Dr. Chamberlain, the Secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions at that time, to name the High School at Madanapelle, India, "Hope High School" if students of Hope would raise the salary of the principal. Dr. Irwin Lubbers was principal from 1919-1922. Due to the depression the mission drive was discontinued for several years. Projects have differed from year to year. In 1946 the |1,227 re- ceived helped migrant workers in the United States receive hymnals and portable organs. Last year's drive netted $2,025 which helped rebuild Talmage College in China, .i..., .

Dr. Lubbers believes it is imper-ative t h a t the building of the new women's dormitory begin a t an 3arly da te because of the increased 2nrollment. At present the college ?ir ls a re housed in six separa te buildings, namely. Beach and Fa i r -banks cot tages and Columbia, Van Vleck, Voorhees, and West Halls. West Hall is the fo rmer Eas t J u n -ior High School which is unsui t -able a s a pe rmanen t dormitory.

Van Vleck Music Hall Voorhees will remain a dormi-

'Y' Chooses South Sudan For Annual Mission Drive

The Annual Mission Drive spon-sored by the Y W C A and YMCA on campus has selected South Su-dan as the recipient of i ts funds fo r th i s year. South Sudan is an entirely new mission field f o r the Reformed Church, having been re-cently approved by the Board of Fore ign Missions wi th the consul-ta t ion of the General Synod. Ac-cording to Judy Mulder and Russ Norden, the Y co-chairmen of the drive, the da te of t h e drive and the definite use of t h e money will re-main a secret .

The portion of t h e Sudan Mis-sion a r e a assigned to the Reformed Church and the p a r t Hope will be a iding will probably be in the southeas te rn p a r t of South Sudan between the Nile River and Ethi -opia and possibly ex tending into Ethiopia .

The Mission Drive is not new on Hope 's campus. The project was in-a u g u r a t e d on Feb rua ry 6, 1917, on an offer of Dr. Chamberla in , the Secre ta ry of the Board of Fore ign Missions a t t h a t t ime, to name the High School a t Madanapelle, India, "Hope High School" if s tudents of Hope would raise the sa la ry of the principal . Dr. I rwin Lubbers was principal f r o m 1919-1922. Due to the depression the mission drive was discontinued f o r several years .

Christiantiy with capitalism or with social-ism and we suppose there are some who would identify it with communism.

Root Difficulties

One of the difficulties t ha t lies at the roots of many present day and historical problems is one of race and color and that imagined superiority of c e r t a i n g r o u p s . The term "race" has been very loosely employed in Twentieth Century America with many ex-poundings on a subject which anthropologists find enormous difficulty when the a t tempt is made to classify human beings. The Amer-ican Phychological Association at its annual meeting in December, 1988, stated that no phychological differences for a fundamental distinction between so-called races have been discovered and fur thermore , that there are no innate mental differences between the

races.

Gonzalo Baez-Camargo gives a few funda-mental principles for considering this prob-lem. "Culture is not inherited. The 'son of a noble race' must yet learn to be personally noble. Culture is not the achievement of a Unique Race. Race Supremacy is incidental, not natural . To speak of undesirable and desirable races is an undue generalization. Genetics must not be applied to men except with extreme caution. This is true, because men a re men, not mice. Of one blood all na-tions of men. One God and Father of all who gave Himself a ransom for all."

The Federal Council of Churches well ex-presses the fundamental position of Chris-tianity with regard to the race problem. It says, "Christian teaching about the essen-tial uni ty of the human race as created by God and as redeemed by Christ is so clear that the re really can be no controversy about its meaning."

With all of the above common knowledge we still hesitate to break with our past of cherished superiority. The church must lead and America must lead at home and abroad. We mus t f igh t for the elimination of all legal, social, educational, and economic dis-criminations based on race and the imagined

• superiority of certain groups. God lias given us the light, let us walk therein.

Over and Above There have always been world leaders

since the time of Christ who have tried to cramp Christianity within their political sys-tems to the exclusion of all other systems. Perhaps the most recent outstanding exam-ple has been Hitler. Although Hitler rejected the Old Testament because of its Jewish orig-in, he did claim the sanction of Christ, whom, he argued, was not a Jew. Numerous Nazi theories claimed Jesus to be the son of a German soldier who was temporarily serving in the Roman army in Palestine. Others as-serted that if He had been on earth during World War II, as a born warrior. He would have joined the Nazi storm troopers. Men

Greetings, all ye talented, intel-gent, musical people. Again the

time to give with the ole one-two music news has descended upon me.

Men's Glee Club is in the lime-ight this week. Yep, they've ac-omplished some business; namely,

that of choosing officers. The men who will undertake the respective duties are: president, "Swoon ten-ir" Harrison; vice-president, Russ Norden; b u s i n e s s - m a n a g e r , Ed 'Mar j ie" Stetson; and Sec.-treas., Jerry "yea, verily" Viening. The men really plan to handle the bus-iness angle of the club as success-fully as they do their vocalizing.

By this t i m e you must know ibout the orchestra concert sched-uled for tonight. I hope you also know that there can be no legiti-mate excuses for not attending. Studies? You mean you came to college to s tudy? Strange aspect, I'd say. How about cramming from 7:00 till 8:00 o'clock; then go to the Chapel, enjoy the concert, and re-ceive some much-needed relaxation; return home and again crack th^ books. Music is always an inspira-tion and those assignments will b 1

completed in double-quick tir.-e. Or-chestra members have worked l o n j and hard to put across these works of Beethoven, Schubert, Sibelius and others. Let's try especially hard to come out and show our ap-preciation of the values of truly great music.

Chapel choir at last favored us with one of their sensational selec-tions Tuesday morning. Prof. Cav-enaugh and his choirettes show signs of j o i n i n g the top ranks. Speaking of the choir reminds me of the vesper service which will be given Sunday afternoon, Decem-ber 7. This vesper is the annual C h r i s t m a s s e r v i c e w h i c h puts everyone in a festive mood; also makes everyone s tar t counting the days he won't have to study.

I wonder how many of us have been taking particular note of our College band. Much of the added zest and pep at our football games was because of the added feature sponsored by the band between the halves. Now that their marching days are over, the band plans to continue its rehearsals and in the not too distant fu ture present the student body with a Concert. Rous-ing cheers to the band members, its majoret tes and majors — Pat Kinney, and M a r c i e Westerman, Clifford Haycock, and Bill Boonstra — and its director, Mr. Rider.

Girls Glee Club has become de-cidedly domestic. Pattern choices and the art of sewing have recent-ly become vital topics of discus-sion. The Glee Club plans to pre-sent beauty and charm as well as talent on the tour next spring. New formals will lend much in this direction.

Music Box has just about fin-ished unwinding; tune in nearly to an end for another round. Hoping many will come to the Musical Arts meeting tonight; even more than that , to the orchestra concert. Umph-de-ta, MoosiciansI!

Dear Editor: Can you do a group of fellow

students a favor? During the past year the plight

of the student-veterans on the campuses of Michigan has become increasingly desperate. The spiral-ing cost of living has forced thou-sands of veterans to drop out of school — and of those who have managed to remain — many thou-sands are forced to live in inade-quate housing facilities — and ac-cept below minimum standards of living.

In February of this year, a con-ference was held at the U. of M. in Ann Arbor, a t which time the problems confronting the student-veteran were discussed. Delega-tions were sent to Washington and the issues placed before our Con-gress. It was primarily due to the accurate information presented by our delegations, together with

for us it not only the study at the college, but also the opportunity we have to mix with people in an-other country. This mingling of students of different cultures can be an advantage for all of us, guests as well as for the rest of the students who attend Hope.

P.ut do we take it ? Are we really interested in the boy or girl of that other country? Are we really try-ing to understand them?

For instance, there has been in-dicated some bad sentiments to-wards the Dutch and vice versa. They may be partly right and part-ly wrong. Some American students say that the Dutch stick together and are impolite at times. The Dutch feel that the Americans are untactful and sometimes even hu-miliating when they ask questions like: "Do you have refr igerators in Holland?"

Possibly it is t rue that some Dutch students form a clique. This is not as it ought to be, but this is true partly because most of them arc together in the. barracks where-as they should all have an Amer-ican roommate. Perhaps arrange-ments could be made to study this situation in the near future . Be-sides they have their language dif-ficulties. Then again, they might exert a little more effort towards being friendly.

Maybe it is t rue tha t some Amer-icans ask stupid questions about Holland Europe, but in the same

sense what do we Dutchmen know about America? And aren't we sometimes p r e j u d i c e d t o w a r d s things American?

Why all this looking down upon the man of another country? Why don't we mix more, and try to un-derstand each other? Every nation ms its different w a y s of doing things, of course. But let us try to find out why.

We are all young now, and the young people of today will have the responsibility of making the fu ture of the world. What can they accomplish if there is no under-standing? Here is an opportunity for all of us to get a better under-standing between people of differ-ent nations, and in so doing equip ourselves for our great task. Let us use it!

Sincerely yours, Karel F. Botermans

Editor's Note: French Club, did you know that several of our new fr iends speak French better than any student t a k i n g F r e n c h on Hope's Campus? One student, who speaks six languages — including German—German Club note—gave me a few tips on Language study. The IRC arranged a splendid pro-gram around information supplied by two fellows acquainted with the Netherlands Eas t Indies. Wake up! Let 's use these students to our mu-tual advantage. Invite them to your meetings!

U J&'M (From Left to Right): Mrs. Win So -.rr, one of our Trrnplr C.ooki, dom the honor for Mrt. IS ell R ellinp. Mr.. ISrll Harry and Mr*. Marie DeWitt.

Have you ever felt thos? ex t reme ' lunger pains in the middle of your s tomach which most college stud- its experience dur ing third hour c lass? It is rumored tha t this acu o sufTer!np comes f rom fo rpe t t i n^

to get up with the a l a r m and sk jp'nj? those muscle-bone-and-teeth building b r e a k f a s t s which Temple ; ul Voorhees provide.

During a deep discussion in I'sx hology class on the physiological drive known as hunger , my stomacl began t<> growl so much tha t I re-ceived an " A " for the day ' s contr ib; ion to the recitation period. Af t e r th i s embar rass ing little episode 1 w -.s determined to put an end to my s tarvat ion period. I hurr ied to the library to find Judy and ask her to go with me to get something t«> re eve my agony.

As we walked past Voorhees, 1 it eived the wonderful inspirat ion to pay a visit to the kitchen there an 1 see if the cooks would take pity on an undernourished co-ed. It was hen tha t 1 found out what a cheer-ful group of women our college ha(' hired as cooks I

Judy and 1 breezed into the kite -n nonchalantly, glancing casually at all tlie tables to see if there iv. ?ht be some s t r ay food fo r us to

devour. To be very t ac t fu l , we itroduced ourselves to the cooks, s t a r t ed conversing with them, hopir j that our conversation would lead to bet ter things.

We found out that the two cook: who keep Voorhees supplied with meals are Mrs. Wenzel and Mrs. SVott. The former has been a cook fo r 25 years. She worked on our ca npus two years ago and spent last yea r doing practical nurs ing . Thi: past summer she cooked at the "B ig Top." Mrs. Scott was cook a Voorhees last year and likes her job very much. She has lived in II illand all her life and has one son who is 2.i. Both women enjoy the i r work because of the environment which seems to them " jus t like ho: le."

Af t e r ta lk ing with these ladies a few minutes, they offered us each a delicious piece of apple pie and a g lass of milk which we gulped down, t ry ing not to look overly-eag< r. For the moment all of our needs had been sat isf ied and thanking th 'S*1 generous ladies, we tr ipped up the steps to proceed on our merry v ay.

The next day Judy and I found .-urselves in the same hungry pre-dicament as we were walking honu from the shoe store. We remem-bered how fo r tuna t e we had been the day before and wondered if we would be so lucky aga in . Since we had to walk past Temple anyway, why not stop to see what we could find t he r e?

Our ent rance into Temple ' s kitchen was greeted with a g rea t deal of joking and teasing. Such a happy-go-lucky bunch as this crew we had never met. Mrs. Soper and Mrs. (Irigsby are the cooks here, as-sisted by Mrs. Welling. Mrs. De Wil t , and Mrs. Barry, the pas t ry cook. Mrs. Grigsby cooked in Holland rest-uranl .s until she became college cook last spr ing. Sh'* has four (lul iren. and her son has served six years in the Army Air ( o ips . Mr . . Welling, who is spending her first yea r here, has one marr ied son and two lit t le g randdaugh te r s who are her pride and joy. Last year she was a cook at Smi th ' s Convalescent Home. Another ve teran at Temple i.- Mrs. Soper, who gained her ex-perience at the lied Brock l ea Room. She lias one daugh te r who lives in Holland. Mrs. Barry, mother of two children, former ly worked at the Mary J a n e Res tau ran t . She has lived in Holland the past 21 years and also worked at Temple last year . These ladies like their work so much that they wouldn't t r ade for any other job.

Since it was ge t t i ng nea r dinner- t ime, we didn't pester the cooks for any th ing to eat , but took a rain check on their generous offer to come in fo r food some other t ime.

Thanksgiving Westmins ter Abbey is a massive stone cathedral whose a tmosphere

is charged with the pomp and ceremony tha t is England . Here fo r nine centuries, kings have been crowned. Here, England ' s g rea t a re buried. Here the Church of England re igns supreme. Only once in nine hundred years , has Wes tmins te r Abbey known a non-sectarian service or been turned over to ano the r nation.

The one instance when the lock of tradit ion and iron-clad rules which have made Westmins te r so impregnable was opened, was dur ing World W a r II. The key which opened this lock, was the t ru ly American holiday, Thanksgiving.

In 1942, a g r e a t number of American G.I.'s were s ta t ioned on the Brit ish Isles. As November neared, it seemed especially impor tan t to these Americans away f rom home, t ha t Thanksgiv ing should be ob-served. It was r a the r ironic, that England should be host to the f ight-ing men of a country which was founded in large par t , by people seek-ing re fuge f rom oppression in England, and who fought a war with her to gain th is r ight . Especially on this day, which the English Pil-g r i m s f i rs t celebrated in the New World.

However, England proved to be a perfect host, and when Thanks-giving morning dawned crisp and clear, the S ta r s and S t r ipes were seen flying magnificently f rom the Abbey Tower.

In Westmins ter itself, an amazing sight was to be seen. Row upon row of young men in khaki and navy blue, packed not only the seats, but the aisles too. United S ta tes Navy nurses were seated in a section beneath a s ta tue of the g rea t English s ta tesman, Robert Peel.

The service was inspiring, and presented a cross-section of America which was in s t r ange contras t to the usual services of the Church of England. The service was conducted by a Baptist f rom Arkansas . The organis t was a young corporal f rom Long Island, New York. The choir was comprised of 12 G.I. 's who sang "America the Beaut i ful ," "We Adore Thee 0 Chr is t , " "Dutch Hymn of Thanks ," and "Lead On 0 King Eternal ."

John Wiriant, then United S ta tes Ambassador to England, read a proclamation of thanks f rom President Roosevelt, then he, Mr. Anthonv Biddle, and the Dean of Westmins ter walked down the aisle, and the service was over.

Services were also held that day f r r Jewish and Catholic G.I.'s. The Jewish Chaplain thanked God for "th,- privilege of f igh t ing on our feet instead of dy ing on our knees."

Yes, England had a Thanksgiv ing . The bomb-shat tered windows of Westmins ter Abbey seemed to echo the thoughts of all men down through the centuries , as they have ga thered together to give thanks, though in the midst of pestilence, famine and war . Americans in 1947 have perhaps more reason to be thankfu l than any people in history. Stop and look around you, then read any paper, listen to any radio commentator , and ask yourself , have I a right to be t h a n k f u l ?

Thanksgiving i Roblee Shoes for Men Thanksgiving means tu rkey and

s tuff ing to us.

And cranberry sauce and potatoes

all fluffed:

And apples, and squash and all the

res t .

And the wonderful pie that Mother makes best.

To our Pilgrim f a the r s it meant t hanks to God

For giving them blessings a f t e r t imes that were hard.

For giving them freedom gotten with pain;

For giving them sunshine to harvest their g ra in .

Ours is the f reedom for which they fought .

Don't let's forget and take it for nought :

It 's not something we can take for g ran ted ,

The seed still needs care a f t e r it 's planted.

Hallowe'en and all its p ranks a re over. Mrs. K. has taken the hair-pins out of her doorbell to s top its incessant r inging, and has located

all the fuses so tha t Voorhees Hall will not again be suddenly shrouded in darkness . Our thoughts now turn to Thanksgiving and stuffed tu rkey with c ranber ry sauce. Inci-dental ly , Prof . Haverkamp says tha t we eat fifty per cent more than we should on Thanksgiv ing , so beware!

One other prank of October 31 shows the keen a ler tness of our housemothers . The telephone r ang and f rom the other end came a deep masculine voice saying, "Mrs . K., we have two of your gir ls in the Bier Kelder who have just passed out. Will you come and get t h e m ? "

Mrs. K. quickly retor ted. "1 think you a re capable of taking care of tha t , F R A N K ! " The p h o n e re-sounded with a loud click f rom the

f a r end. From secret sources we learned that the recipient of this last s ta tement walked out of the phone booth sl ight ly abashed!

Congra tu la t ions to the Arcadian f r a t e r n i t y who placed second in the S ta t e In t e r f r a t e rn i ty Sing with a recording of thei r Arcadian song. A f r a t e r n i t y of the Universi ty of Michigan placed first. Nice going, fellows.

You have all heard the incident about "man bites dog," but we re-

such, on campus. Wally Fre ibe rg

stayed up 'til .3:00 one morning

prepar ing a Chemistry repor t , and

upon oral presentat ion in class of

the aforesa id report , discovered tha t Prof . Van Zyl had fa l len sleep. Remarked Freiberg, "This all goes to prove — what does it go to p r o v e ? "

We are all eager ly wai t ing fo r Old Man Winter to put in an ap-pearance so we can show off our snow to P a u l i n e Hendreith and Sammy Lewis f rom Alabama. They have never seen snow and don't exactly know what they ' re ge t t ing

into. Shivering Sammy s t a t e s (note the al l i terat ion. Profs ) t h a t if it gets much colder, he's going back to Alabama 'til it warms up here.

("an anyone give a good defini-tion of the words: smooching, neck-ing, spa rk ing and spooning, so we

can explain them to Sammy and the Dutch boys? (Sammy thinks it has something to do with immi-g ra t in ' ) . Another word puzzling to them is "eager beaver".

The war is still raging. Will short skir ts or long skir ts win o u t ? The atomic bomb can solve this , for clothes will be ta t te red in the ex-plosion, t h u s resul t ing in short skirts . S a i d a m a l e P r o f , " the world was much more in teres t ing when the hemlines were up . "

Peace Problems Pose Questions For Discussants

Wives Introduce Baby-Sitting Plan

"What should be done to insure

peaceful relations among the na-tions of the wor ld?" will be the subject of the Group Discussion Festival t o b e h e l d a t Western Michigan C o l l e g e of Education, Kalamazoo, on Saturday, Nov. 15. There will be two rounds of discus-sion in the afternoon, the first round concerning itself with the "problems" surrounding the sub-ject, and the second round center-ing upon the "solutions" to the problems.

At the evening dinner meeting, there will be a forum on the sub-ject of the day. Rev. Charles John-son, Lt. Colonel, European Theatre, and Dr. Julius Wendzel, Economist of The Upjohn Company, Kalama-zoo, will speak with Otto Yntema, D i r e c t o r of A d u l t E d u c a t i o n , WMCE, acting as Moderator.

Each school will send either five discussants or multiples thereof, including a group leader for each five, and a critic of faculty stand-ing. Hope will be represented by fifteen students recruited from the debate squad, the International Re-lations Club, and Miss Ross' class in Current Problems. The three group leaders for Hope are Donald Buteyn, L a m b e r t Ponstein, and Henry Shaw. Dr. Wm. Schrier, Miss Irene Wade, and Miss Metta Ross will accompany the group and serve as faculty critics.

Other Hope studont participants are : Donald Vandenberg, William Jellema, Dennis Shoemaker, Harold Grissen, Nelson Stegeman, Harvey Moes, Al Pennings, Charles Prev-ite, George Toren, Con Vander-woude, Ar thur Ponstein, and Ruth

sum will pay for the initial costs of the expansion program. The en-tire program will cost approxi-mately two million dollars.

To Save Money "The erection of a central heat-

ing plant is in the interest of econ-omy," Dr. Lubbers pointed out. "At present there are 22 furnaces heating the college buildings on and off the campus, and this does not include the 40 separate heating installations in the 10 campus bar-racks," he added.

The other two b u i l d i n g s dis-cussed by the Board of Trustees were a library and a gymnasium. Although not included in the im-mediate p r o g r a m . Dr. Lubbers stated that the Board considered them necessary to meet the in-creased growth of the student body. Upon their completion, the college head revealed that plans call for a remodelling of Graves Library into a College Union Building and that C a r n e g i e G y m n a s i u m wil l be equipped to be used as an auditori-um in connection with Secular Col-

lege Programs. Power Delegated

According to Dr. Lubbers, the trustees v o t e d to e m p o w e r the building and executive committees to approve building sites and gen-eral plans of the project.

William Jansen of Chicago, chair-man of the building committee stated that Ralph R. Calder of De-troit has already been retained as an architect and that the program is underway. Calder, according to Jansen, has had many years of ex-perience in designing dormitories, some of which were built at the University of Michigan, Michigan State College, University of De-troit, Western Michigan College. Michigan College of Mining and Technology, and Hillsdale College.

A baby-sitting experiment has been organized by the Student Wives Club among the wives who who are also mothers. These moth-ers will volunteer their time to care for children of other students. Mothers on Beach Court have al-ready been organized and those off the court have been invited to join, subject to certain regulations. Mrs. Clifford Haycock, assisted by Mrs. Leon Bamum, have taken charge of t h i s p r o j e c t , a n d interested .nothers can contact her a t Apt. X-3, Beach Court.

"The Lamp Went Out," a hilari-ous one act play, was presented at a recent meeting. The cast included Mrs. Henry Bobeldyk, the heroine; Mrs. Vernon Meulenbelt, the hero; Mrs. H a r o l d V e r B e r k m o s , the mother; Mrs. Harold GrotH, the v i l l i an^and Mrs. Charles Ploeg-sma, reader. Mrs. Leon Barnum assisted with the properties. A trio composed of Mrs. Robert 'Thaden, Mrs. Renze L. Hoeksema, and Mrs. Bill Flaherty s a n g "All God's Chillun Got Shoes" and "Standing in the Need of Prayer ."

During the course of the evening plans for a potluck supper were discussed, and a contest for a new Club name was announced.

Hopeites Present "Messiah" Dec. 16

KAZOO, DALES SHARE CROWN Co-Champs Duplicate 1946 MIAA Finish; Hope Third

For the second consecutive year, Kalamazoo and Hillsdale reigned as co-champions of the MIAA Conference. Pre-sea-son predictions that the 1947 title chase would be the most closely-contested in the conference's his-tory followed t rue to form as no less than three ties, all involving the top teams, spotted the final standings.

Af te r winning their first three contests, the Hillsdale co-champs were held to ties in their final two games. Alma stunned the Dales last weak by coming from behind and then holding their much-fav-ored hosts to a 7-7 deadlock. Earl-ier in the season Kalamazoo had tied the Nelson-men in what war slated to be the deciding game of the season.

Kalamazoo, the other half of the 1947 co-champions, was held to r draw by third-place Hope midway in the season, which spoiled their chances for a clear shot at the title. Last week the Hornets, led by Flowers and Elliott, hammered hapless Albion, 32-6.

Hope Runner-up

Al Vanderbush's D u t c h m e n snared runner-up honors in the weird conference chase, but were forced to their limit in the final two frays. Behind Nick Yonker they whipped Alma in the final minutes two weeks ago, and last week, with the elements of weath-er playing an important role, they squeezed by Adrian, 6-0.

Alma, pre-season darkhorse, lived up to expectations by damping Hillsdale's undisputed title claim with last week's tie.

Adrian and Alma showed little throughout the season, though the Bulldogs proved to be the better of the two on the basis of their 24-6 triumph over the Briton cellar-dwellers two week's ago.

Non-Loop Games This Week

With the exception of Hope, all teams have non-conference dates this weekend. Kalamazoo plays host to Defiance; Hillsdale enter-tains Detroit Tech this week and travels to Illinois College next weekend; Alma goes to Ferris; Findlay tests Adrian; Albion goes to Lake Forest. Thus far in non-loop tilts, MIAA teams have tri-umphed in nine of fourteen con-tests, with one ending in a tie.

Adrian Edged, 6-0, In Season Finale

Hope rang down the curtain on the 1947 football season last Fri-day night a t Riverview Park, edg-:ng Adrian, 6-0, in a contest fea-tured by fumbles, wintry weather and a muddy gridiron. Bob Emerv crashed off tackle midway in the lecond quarter for the Hop2 touch-down and margin of victory.

In w i n n i n g t h e i r finale, the Dutchmen had to stave off a last minute Bulldog threat led by the elusive Forrest S c h l u t z , power-driving fullback. Earlier in the contest, Adrian lost a tie and pos-sibly a victory when an offside pen-ilty called back Schlutz's brilliant nxty-six yard touchdown run.

Other t h a n t h e l a t e Bulldog hreat, the second half offered little nore than a series of fumbles aused almost entirely by hazard->us atmospheric conditions.

The triumph for the Vanderbush Tridders gave them a five-won, two-lost, and one-tied record for the reason, including three victories, me defeat, and a tie in conference activity.

Playing their last collegiate foot-ball game for Hope were: Ernie Post, Bill Draper, Rip Collins, Ken Weller, Don Ladewig, Vern Kraii, John Ligtvoet, Glenn Bruggers, Don Bocks, and Dick Higgs.

MICHIGAN CLEANERS L HOLLEMANS, Prop.

232 River Ave. Open Saturday Evenings

SCOOP A 1 3

The screwy MIAA football race is over, and what a mess. It appears that again Hillsdale and Kalamazoo arc tied for f i rs t place, but each with a couple of ties. Hope proved the thorn in the Hornets side, while the Scots from Alma tripped up Hillsdale good last Saturday, holding them to a tie and thus delicately pushing a left-handed monkey wrench in this particular conference. The Dutchmen now have undisputed pos-session of second place, like last year.

So all the coaches and oHticials, etc., etc., will get their heads together and pick out an all-MIAA team. And without a doubt Young and Ward will be half-backs and Yonker will again be quarter . He is the only Hope man I am sure will make the mythical eleven. Holwerda, Collins, Ladewig, De Mull and Emery have a chance. If Emery hadn't messed up his leg he'd be in like Flynn, and as it is he looks good, but . . . I know very little about some of these players, in fact I've never seen them, at least this year. So my guess is as good as yours. Anyway, the Dutch didn't do too badly, and 1 believe Coaches Van and Mulder are to be congratulated on a f ine job. As for the players, they'll get their reward . . . they've showed some fine spirit and determination and drive, and really have what it takes, which is what counts.

Dean of Men, Athletic Director, and Head Basketball Coach Milton L. Bud Hinga has issued the call, and about thirty hopefuls spilled out onto the newly polished but rough-as-a-cob gym floor. (We wonder who did that job, and why?) It will be a difficult task to present a championship club such as he had last year. And the pressure is on, the Dutch are defending MIAA champions. Van Dis, De Vette, Schol-ten, three s tar ters are gone; Mulder and Buter, the other two are back, as well as half a dozen other lads who looked good last year. But a player can't look good and remain a member of this Dutch cage group; he has to look exceptional. Each player is a specialist, and unless he has something like uncanny knowledge pertaining to the sport he might as well throw in the towel. We'll dwell on the hardwood lads fur ther next time.

You know, this Miss Van Domelen is giving the girls some good, clean, variable sports this year. I've seen several types of athletics displayed this fall and believe me, the display wasn't bad . . .

1 am happy to report the birth of a baby girl to Mrs. Dell Boersma. Dell is a former high school basketball star, but the navy stepped in before he had a chance to prove his worth at Hope. Now, as an old married fa ther , he'll devote more time at home, and forget the sport.

From all reports the Adrian game was almost as big a farce as the Ypsi contest. But Hope won, and that 's what goes down in the record book. I wonder if something like a lot of wind didn't have a hand in that Hillsdale-Alma tie Saturday. Personally, I'd rather see Hope in third, than Kazoo tied for first. Nothing personal, but I don't like their attitude, or at least their press releases. "Lowly" Hope it read.

the Success it Merits

Dutch Wh ip Alma 26-19; Yonker Star

Legendary Frank Merriwell in the form of Nick Yonker played the hero's role in Hope's 26-19 storybook finish over the Alma Scots in the lat ter 's homecoming appearance on November 1. The victory enabled the Dutchmen to regain third place in the MIAA Conference race.

With three minutes lef t to play in the Alma game, the quick-think ing Yonker first leaped high in the air, then, finding eligible receivers covered, ran instead for the touch-down that knotted the score. Alma :ried desperately to score a f t e r re-ceiving the kickoff, but in their desperation of long passes they failed to account for the fleet-footed Yonker. The All-MIAA quarterback came out of nowhere to intercept a long Alma pass deep in Hope terri tory. A sustained drive brought the ball to the Almr i where Hope was penalized five yards for delaying the game. On the last play of the game, Yonker took a Pfingstel-thrown pass on the 5 and eluding four Alma tacklers zigzagged to the goal line for the winning touchdown. Ken Weller'F successful point a f t e r the game was over proved anti-climactal to Hope's 26-19 victory.

Alma Scores Twice Alma got off to a big lead in

their h o m e c o m i n g tussle. Rex Roseman terminated sixty-three yards of marching early in the second quarter by scoring the first touchdown. Following the kickoff, the Scots jumped on a free ball on the Hope 35, and with the aid of an end zone interference penalty, scored from the 1 for their second tally. Howell made the first point but missed the second and Alma led, 13-0, as the half drew to a close.

With only minutes left in the first half, Vern Kraii swept left end from the 5 to tally the Dutch-men's first touchdown. It was a Yonker-Kraii pass from the Hope 40 good for fifty-five yards that set up the Hope score and cut their deficit to 13-7 a t the half.

Hope Ties Score A concentrated seventy - yard

drive climaxed by Yonker's two-yard quarterback sneak late in the third quar ter gave Hope its second touchdown and, with Weller's suc-cessful conversion, the score was tied, 13-13.

Late in the final period Alma marched sixty-five yards into the Hope end zone to break the dead-lock. Hester went over from the 7, and although Howell's point was wide, the 19-13 lead loomed decisive with but minutes remaining.

But, someone forgot to tell Nick Yonker that the game was almost hopelessly lost, because right about this time, the sophomore sensation pulled his Frank Merriwell tactics and almost single-handedly pro-duced two touchdowns and a 26-19 victory.

Dutch Tie Adrian; MIAA Run Today

Finishing men in five of the first nine spots, a balanced Hope cross country squad rallied to tie a vis-i t ing Adrian array, 28-28, last week F r i d a y a f t e r n o o n on the Dutch course. The run was a final tuneup for both teams in prepara-tion for today's MIAA meet at Albion.

E l wood L a r s e n , Adrian track star , paced the thirteen-man field, covering the near-four-mile courso in 21:27, almost a minute fas'.er than the winning time of the Kala-mazoo meet earlier in the season. Less than a minute behind the win-ner were four closely-spaced run-ners. Roy Collins followed team-mate Larsen to the wire, whih Gerry Van Singel and Pete Kraak, Hope stalwarts , finished in a daad heat for third. Another Dutchman, Hugh Campbell, was only str ide; behind in fifth.

R o g H e a s t y in s e v e n t h and eighth - place Col Ottipoby com-pleted the Hope point winners.

Don Vandenberg placed tent'i. one spot in f ront of Adrian's fiuTi finisher, to prevent the Buildrr'r. from taking the meet victory.

Kalamazoo and Albion are favor-ites to capture the first MIAA cross country championship this afternoon. Both these squads won easily over the Dutch harriers. Leading contenders for individual honors will probably be Mac Donald a n d H a g a d o n e of Albion, and Stockrider of Kalamazoo.

Basketball Drills Begin; Vets Back

Six lettermen, two of them regu-lars, greeted Coach Milton "Bud" Hinga's first call for basketball drills last week Monday afternoon at Carnegie Gymnasium. With this sextet as a nucleus. Coach Hinga hopes to build a quintet capable of defending Hope's '46-'47 MIAA Conference champions. The basketeers open their 16-game schedule on December 4, playing host to Grand Rapids J . C. in a non-conference game. Adrian opens conference competition on Decem-ber 18, in another local contest.

Captain Don Mulder, who assisted football mentor, Al Vanderbush, during the past grid season, was an All-Conference guard last year and heads the returning H-men along with Harold Buter, regular center on last year's championship five. Mulder is a senior, Buter, a junior.

Other returning lettermen in-clude Harvey Buter, Charles Ploeg-sma, Nick Yonker, and Fred Brieve.

This week, Coach Hinga got his first look at a host of freshmen aspirants for varsity positions. This is the last year freshmen will be eligible for competition under the provisions of the NCAA war-time policies.

Hope's athletic director a n d basketball-tutor was non-committal on the prospects of another MIAA championship this year, choosing to wait for comment until the squad would be cut to a more workable size.
