Hope Extends Identity To Reinclude Hope Of India
In the last two years Hope College has renewed a vital relationship that it once held with another institution. Rev. J. D. Muyskens first went out in 1915 .̂s a short term mis-sionary to India and became the principal of a high school in Madanapalle. He named the school "Hope" after Hope College and thereby established a relationship between the two institutions. For a number of years this relationship continued, and Hope College, through the contributions of its students, continued to support the principal. Dr. Lubbers was one of the missionaries to be sent out under these ar-rangements.
Ten yea r s la ter it seemed bes t
t h a t our mission in India concen-
t r a t e i ts faci l i t ies for h igher edu-cation in Vellore. The high school was consequent ly reduced in s t a t u s
and all t h e equipment was moved
to the new site. I t became, in-s tead, a h igher e lementary school
bu t re ta ined its f o r m e r name. How-ever, i t s suppor t was t aken over by the Board of Fore ign Missions and i ts aff i l ia t ion with Hope Col-
lege was broken. A f t e r t he end of the war , t he
g rowth and development of t he
Church in the a r e a around Madan-apalle , the advanced cul tura l s t a t e of the Chr i s t i an communi ty , and
the consequent need fo r educated
Chr is t ian leadership made the re-opening of high school c lasses in
Madanapa l le necessary. Dr. Po t t e r ,
the sec re ta ry of the Board of For -eign Missions, fu l ly approved of
the recommendat ion t h a t the school be r e tu rned to i ts or iginal s t a t u s
and f u r t h e r recommended t h a t i t s re la t ionship wi th Hope College be
renewed. As a resu l t , t he mission drive of

Prominent Sad Sax Attend W A L Party
On Fr iday evening, November 3,
many odd looking c rea tu res were seen approach ing the gym. On f u r -
t h e r invest igat ion it was discovered t h a t these cha rac te r s were actual ly our beaut i fu l Hope co-eds on the i r

who w e r e : funn ie s t . Marge Pick-ens ; mos t original , J e r r y DeGraff and Carolyn Robinson; and shabbi-
est , M a r y La Huis . A f t e r some vigorous g roup s inging led by
M a r g e DeNeut r e f r e s h m e n t s of ci-der , spud-nuts and apples were hun-
gr i ly devoured by the ha rd - t imers . The scene of the p a r t y then
changed to the g i r l s dorms, since
the town gir ls were invited f o r t he n ight . Before re t i r ing , a g roup of g i r l s f r o m D u r f e e decided t h a t

UNESCO Spotlighted In Triplicate This Past Moon
Three important meetings were held within the last month
involving the UNESCO-Affiliated students and faculty of
Hope College. On Saturday, October 21st, a group of Hope
students attended the regional UNESCO conference at West-
ern Michigan College in Kalamazoo. Dr. Ella Hawkinson,
head of the Hope History Department and vice-president of
Michigan Council for UNESCO, was presiding. In the morn-
ing there were several speakers who talked to the group in
general. The first was Robert West, who represented the joint project of UNESCO and CARE in supplying new books to the damaged libraries of the world. He told how badly )ooks were needed by l ibrar ies t h a t

Library Observes Nat'l Book Week
This week l ibrar ies across the country a re observing the th i r t i e th ann ive r sa ry of A m e r i c a n B o o k
Week. This practice, which was first founded fo r children, was
s t a r t ed in Boston f o l l o w i n g a speech by a Boy Scout l ibrar ian
who had been c rusad ing across the country' to a s su re be t te r books f o r
boys. Book Week has succeeded in b r ing ing toge the r in common cause
all those who wan t children as well as adu l t s to have more and be t t e r
books. I t ha s given the book sellers
a new re la t ionship to the fami l ies they serve.
Our own school l ibrary has joined
in the observance of this event . Th roughou t th is ent i re week there
is on exhibi t in the cases of t he main read ing room a display of ear ly p r in te r ' s m a r k s used in an a t -
t e m p t to p revent pi racy of pr in ted mater ia l s . A s ear ly as 1519, laws
were passed by which these p r in t -er ' s m a r k s were protected. The
m a r k s have proved very valuable in placing old books, since the name
of t he p r i n t e r or t he place of p r in t -ing was not found in the books. The
symbols on these marks are ve ry in te res t ing and provide much in-fo rma t ion concerning the h is tory of
p r in t i ng and the ideals of ea r ly p r in te r s .
Also in the l ibrary will be found a display of books on the back shelves of the r ead ing room. The
l ib ra ry staff would like to t ake th i s t ime to acqua in t t h e s tuden t s wi th the d i f fe ren t types of books a t t he
l ibrary . They would also like to i n fo rm t h e s tuden t s t h a t all new books coming into the l ib ra ry can
be found in the first section as you en te r the downs ta i r s s tacks. If you haven ' t a l r eady been in to see the displays, why no t meander over
and t ake a p e e k ?
The Reg i s t r a r ' s Office has re-leased a list of Hope s tudents

Crowder Concert Termed Most Brilliant Heard Here
The recital here of Louis Crowder, internationally renowned
pianist, educator, and epicure, on November 2 has been de-
scribed as one of the most brilliant exhibitions of piano artis-
try and virtuosity ever heard at Hope College.
His program was arranged in the traditional manner, his
first group of numbers including both the Italian and German
Classical schools. Scarlatti and Mozart were the representa-t ives. The second p a r t of the con- ,
an individual is exposed to good music, o r any of the fine a r t s , t he
more he learns to apprec ia te it .

P R I N T E D AT OLD N E W S P R I N T E R Y
Lest We Forget . . . "Over the river and through the wood to grandmother's
house we go. . . Yes, the frost on the pumpkin and the nip in the air tells us that Thanksgiving is not too f a r off. All over the campus we can find Hopeites who are eagerly anticipating the holiday. To some it will be a four-day holi-day from the routine school day; to others it will be a won-derful chance to catch up on all those term papers and back work; still others are looking forward to that delicious mouth-watering turkey dinner complete with all the trimmings. But, whatever our own personal reasons may be, we must not forget what the real purpose of Thanksgiving is — that of thanksgiving.
Some three hundred and thirty years ago when our fore-fathers first settled at Plymouth Rock, they were met with hardships, starvation, disease, cold winters, and lack of adequate living facilities. One thing they did have — a strong faith in God. And that faith carried them through all their afflictions, and with His help they overcame them and brought forth an abundant harvest. And the Pilgrims knew from whence came their strength, and they prepared a feast and worshipped and gave thanks unto His name.
Think of how very much more we have today to be thankful for. Too often in our every-day living we tend to take our blessings too much for granted. Perhaps we even overlook many because we are too pre-occupied with other things. So on this Thanksgiving Day let us pause and give thought to all that we do have to be thankful for, and we will then be able to observe the day in the same spirit as our fore-fathers did so many years ago. J. B.

Enlightened Or Provincial? Two weeks ago one of the world's leading pianists presented
a brilliant recital before a somewhat less brilliant crowd of about 200 persons. A month ago a first-rate male chorus presented a good program before a capacity house. Investi-gation of the factors influencing attendance at these two concerts has uncovered a little fact and left room for a lot of reflection.
Apparently the enlightened college student — and prof — despite a supercilious disdain for modern American commer-cialism, is more susceptible to its appeal than he cares to admit. The DePaur concert was preceded by advance-pub-licity notices; the Crowder concert was not. The DePaur concert was for a price; the Crowder concert was for nothing. The DePaur group concertizes primarily for a living (any-body's privilege, of course) and is as professional and special-ized as the Philadelphia Eagles. Louis Crowder, a musician's musician, yet versatile, cultured, and cultivated in other fields as well, concertizes for a hobby.
• Possibly the college student — maybe even the prof — is not as enlightened as he should be, or thinks he is. It was rather noticeable that the most popular numbers on the De Paur program were those which sacrificed music for novelty effect. At least they did a good job of it. More important, a common question asked with regard to the Crowder concert was, "Who is he?" This is partly the result of his avoidance of commercialism and press-agentry, but it is also a reflection on our own provincialism.
The most common excuse for not attending the Crowder recital was that it occurred on a Thursday night, and 75% of those polled claimed from one to three exams the next day, as well as papers and reports coming due. The faculty must be held directly responsible for this and should be condemned for it. No course outline is so immutable that a test cannot be changed a day or two to allow for someone of the musical stature of Louis Crowder to perform. It is our opinion that Hope College lost considerable prestige as a result of the unfortunate circumstances connected with Mr. Crowder's reception. D, jj .
Dear Mr. Editor:-Dear Mr. Ed i to r :
W e r e you a Mos lem? Were your p a r e n t s Mos lems? Were you con-ver ted into Chr i s t i an i ty by t h e
Amer ican Missionaries
These and many s imilar in fu r i -a t i n g and a g i t a t i n g quest ions a r e being cont inual ly put f o r t h to Chr i s t ian A r a b s tuden t s who come to the U.S.A. fo r the i r h igher edu-
cat ion.
My observat ions dur ing the l a s t two years I spent in the S ta t e s lead me to believe t h a t the Amer ican genera l knowledge of the A r a b
Chr i s t i ans is incomplete and inac-cura te . In the fol lowing few lines I shall t r y to lay before my Amer i -can f r i ends and fellow s tuden t s some f a c t s which I am sure will
be a s a t i s f ac to ry answer to the i r queries .
A b r a h a m migra ted f r o m Meso-po tamia (now I r a q ) and set t led in Pales t ine . He begot Ismail and
Isaac and the l a t t e r begot Jacob, and we learn f r o m Scr ip tures and h is tory t h a t Jacob ' s descendants were known to be the Is rael i te Na-
tion, while I smai l ' s made up an -o ther nat ion, the m a j o r i t y of which
were Heathens .
J e s u s Chris t w a s born in J e r u -
salem and Pa les t ine t hus became
the cradle of Chr is t ian i ty .
Chr is t ians , J e w s and Hea thens
multiplied and lived toge ther in-
hab i t ing the land which is at pres-ent known as the A r a b S ta tes ,
(Pa les t ine inclusive) .
When three hundred yea r s a f t e r
Chr is t was born, Mohammed ap-peared in Hi jaz (now Saoudi A r a -bia) mos t of the Arabs (descend-
a n t s of A b r a h a m ) who lived in Arabia in those days were Chris-t ians , J e w s and a few Heathen
t r ibes . Ul t imate ly when Islam (Mo-hammed i sm) flourished and Mo-
hammed ' s fol lowers conquered the su r round ing countr ies many Chris-
tian and Jewish A r a b t r ibes as well as hea thens and other Chr is t ian
na t ions conceded to might and pow-e r and embraced Islam, but , in spi te of all t ha t , Chris t iani ty and
Jewism prevailed in many A r a b s t a t e s and survived all difficulties and persecut ions and their de-
scendants lived up to the presen t
day.
I t cannot be denied t h a t t he A m e r i c a n Missionaries a m o n g whom we had and still have m a n y
dear f r i ends , did help a g r ea t deal in sp read ing Chr is t ian civilization in both Arab ia and in other fields they went to, and t h a t by the i r
Chris t ian teachings they educated the b ra ins and m a n n e r s of m a n y
people.
I am not boas t ing in say ing t h a t my g r a n d and g r e a t - g r a n d p a r e n t s
had the honour of helping a lot in Missionary fields both in Turkey
and in Arabia , and , it is well to say t h a t several other Chr is t ian
fami l ies have done the same.

Hi! Here we a re again . Now don' t ge t discouraged — some week
we'll miss an issue and then you can all g igg le up your sleeves in high old glee. You see — jus t by way of explanat ion — the field of
co lumn-wr i t ing is divided into two — or real ly t h ree — classifications.
1. The t radi t ional Ear ly Bird var ie ty . This is r a t h e r a dull species, as all he ge t s is
worms. This is t he methodical worker who works out every detai l well in advance and
ju s t wouldn ' t d r eam of leav-ing it all until the last min-ute .
2. The second ca tegory is, I f ea r , our niche. We are the
poor unenl ightened c rea tu re s who abhore schedules and scorn detail . As a resul t , we
lose two pounds (which, un-doubtedly, a r e r e g a i n e d p rompt ly ) and add four new
g r e y ha i r s to our growing collection with each issue.
3. We a ren ' t quite here yet, but
cheer up — we'll make it . This is the fellow who never ge t s the re at all .
Ah, well — to our task . October 31 was a most auspicious day on Hope's campus , musical ly speaking.
It was then a t our assembly period, tha t we were t rea ted to a most en t e r t a in ing and technically per -
fected s t r i n g concert by a qua r t e t of Dutch s tudents . As you undoubt-edly know by now, t h e young peo-
ple a r e s tuden t s at t he Univers i ty of Leiden in the Nether lands . They were persuaded by Amer ican s tu-
dents on the Volendam this s u m m e r to make a concert tour of t he Uni ted S ta tes . We all enjoyed the concert t remendously and wish to
congra tu la t e the g r o u p on a job very well done. And we real ly mean it. It was a ve ry enjoyable
concert and g rand musical expe-rience. We real ly feel quite hon-ored to have our ea r th ly Dutch klompen planted firmly next t he t r im a l l iga tor pump of Vassar in
the concert schedule, too. We have a special wa rm li t t le fireplace cor-ner in our American hear t f o r t he vis i tors f r o m Old Holland and hope their s t ay here was a s pleasant f o r them as it was fo r us . Good luck to all of you th rough the coming
year — both musical ly and aca-demically.
Y's Words Howdy P a r t n e r s ,
Well, here we a r e again, and a f t e r t h a t "Hops Hoe-Down" las t Sa tu rday night a t t he Gym we have
a lot of " seedy" t h ings to ta lk about . We've been wai t ing a long t ime to put on such a di f ferent " Y "
funct ion , and it f ina l ly came. If you were around the Gym a t about 8:00 on Sa tu rday n igh t last you
would have seen Hopi tes f r o m such f a r reach ing places as the Cosmo
House, Dur fee Hall, the E m m i e Abode and many of t he other pal-aces on the campus , all march ing into the Gym prepared for an eve-
n ing of s t renuous and somewhat " h a i r r a i s i ng" fun .
A s the evening progressed — and
a f t e r all had lost a sufficient quota of ene rgy — we sa t (or should I say fe l l ) down to en joy a half hour
of good en t e r t a inmen t . Whenever you presen t such well known celeb-r i t ies as Jack ( I 'm bet ter t h a n
Nelson Eddy) Boeskool, Fred (Bob
Hope) Kar s t en , and all of the o the r fine e n t e r t a i n e r s who were on deck, you a r e in f o r a good time. They sure did a good job and by the re -
sponse we know t h a t it was en-joyed by all.
The r e s t of the evening was filled with some more Squa re Dancing, the munch ing of those now very f a m o u s " S p u d n u t s " and the guz-zling of cider. Food is a lways a welcome r e f r e s h e r a f t e r some s t r en -
uous work such as " swing ing your p a r t n e r , " and the food there pres-en t filled the bill.
All in all the " H o p e Hoe-Down"
was a h u g e success f o r all those who a t t ended and we hope t h a t your " Y ' s " will be able to do some-t h i n g s imi la r to i t in the not too d i s t an t f u t u r e . Befo re bidding you
a fond fa rewel l d e a r reader , we w a n t t o t ake our h a t s off to Lois Eng land of the Y.W. and Howie
Newton of t he Y.M. f o r real ly do-ing a good job in m a k i n g the "Hope Hoe-Down" the bang-up success it real ly was .
Well , t h a t ' s all t he gab we have, so unt i l nex t t ime we'll be shovin ' off. So long fo r now and we'll see you a t " Y " Tuesday n ight .
Indignation The Origin Of A Hope College Tradition
T h e " P u l l " is over , bu t t he bat ! le
between F re shmen and Sophomores is not . The F r e s h m a n class still has a chance to r ega in lost g lory in the Nykerk Cup Contes t . This yea r ' s
contes t will be the f o u r t e e n t h an-nual contest .
I t all s t a r t ed the fa l l of 1935 when the F r e s h m e n boys lost the Pull to the Sophomores in a dis-g race fu l ly shor t t ime, and the gir ls were ve ry ind ignant . They were
sure t h a t they could have done much bet ter , and they proposed a g i r l s ' Pull, so t h a t the class could
rega in its se l f - respect and enhance its pres t ige . There was a very s t rong fee l ing about the ma t t e r .
Dr. J . B. Nykerk , head of t he Eng l i sh d e p a r t m e n t a t t h a t t ime, was much dis turbed by the s i tua-
tion, and he sugges ted t h a t the F r e s h m a n and Sophomore gir ls should have a contest of bra ins
ins tead of brawn. He proposed hav-ing the g i r l s compete in the a reas
of d r a m a , music and o ra to ry , and
he presen ted a cup which should
be awarded to the winner . The
rules which Dr. Nyke rk se t up have
been used unti l the p r e sen t t ime, wi th s l ight revision. T h a t first con-
t e s t was held in F e b r u a r y 1936.
An in ter -c lass c h a i r m a n is ap-pointed by the s t uden t council pres-
ident, and she selects F r e s h m a n
and Sophomore Cha i rmen , a Jun io r advisor f o r the F r e s h m e n , and a Senior advisor f o r Sophomores .
Each c lass is allowed to have up-
per-c lass coaches in d r a m a t i c s and music. The en t i re contes t is carr ied on wi thou t any ass i s t ance or direc-
tion f r o m the f acu l ty . However,
t h r ee f acu l ty members a r e asked to act as judges .
Again th i s year , as in yea r s pas t , the g i r l s a r e work ing ha rd to make
their c lass the vic tor . Th is is an-other one of Hope 's fine t radi t ions .
Let ' s p re se rve i t !

The Hope College In te rna t iona l Relat ions Club met a t 4 P.M. on
Wednesday, November 1st, fo r the r e g u l a r meet ing. A f t e r a brief bus-
iness meet ing, t he p rog ram was turned over to Gerry Hobler who
introduced several of the people who had a t tended the UNESCO
conference a t Kalamazoo on Octo-ber 21st. Those who talked were
Ellen Lidston, Ke tema Yif ru , Dick DeMaagd, and Dave Angus . Dr. Hawkinson gave a s u m m a r y when
the s tudent r epresen ta t ives had fin-ished.
The next IRC meet ing will t ake
place on November 15. It will be a joint meet ing with the IRC of Grand Rapids Jun io r College and
will be held in the basement of Durfee a t 7:30. The subject of dis-
cussion is "Should the Non-Com-munis t nat ions fo rm a new world b loc?" Harold Dean will preside
and there will be a panel consist ing of Gail VanZyl, J i m Blane, and two s tuden t s f r o m the Grand Rapids
group . It is not too la te to become a member and we invite anyone in teres ted in world a f f a i r s to a t tend the meet ing.
F R E N C H C L U B
A t r e a t was in s tore f o r s tudents of music and French on Fr iday a f t -
ernoon, Nov. 3rd. Mr. Louis Crowd-er presented an in fo rmal lecture on
present day French cul ture , having studied in Pa r i s and spent a recent vacat ion t r a v e l i n g th roughou t
France . He then played several Debussy pieces, which he accom-
panied by the r ead ing of tone poems in French.
The h igh l igh t of t he r egu la r meet ing, held on Nov. 13 in the
Chapel basement , was the showing
of two special films. The work of the sculp tor Maillol was the subject
of one, and the o ther concerned Matisse and his pa in t ings . Ob-
tained t h rough the F ranco-Amer i -can Dis t r ibu t ing C e n t e r , both
proved v e r y in te res t ing , especially since these a r t i s t s were actual ly seen a t work . A p a p e r p resen t ing
the i r life, and f u r t h e r background mater ia l , was p repa red by Mary
Hou tman and read by Dan De
Graa f . The Ar t Club m e m b e r s were the gues t s invited to the p rog ram.
" H " C L U B
H Club members a r e highly elated over the t r emendous success of the i r first p ro jec t s . Dur ing
Home-coming members could be seen sel l ing "Var s i t y Vies," a min-ia ture footbal l p layer , and Home-
coming pins. Both i tems were com-
plete sell-outs. The Vars i ty Vies proved so popular t h a t the club has ordered more of them for s tu-dents who would like to have them fo r souvenirs or desk o rnamen t s .
The nex t pro jec t p lanned will be the sale of season t icke ts for Hope's home basketbal l games . They a re
also looking into the possibil i ty of having va r s i t y j acke t s styled a f t e r the Hope colors and designs.
A f t e r t he success of the i r first projects , the H Club is very opti-
mistic of a very f r u i t f u l yea r and would aga in like to u rge all le t ter -men to par t ic ipa te .
In qua l i ta t ive ana lys i s lab the
s tuden t s had a laugh the o ther day
when Dr. Kleinheksel asked a gir l
chemis t f o r a tes t tube. In he r
eagerness to be he lpful , she quickly
picked up the neares t t e s t tube and
th rew away her fifth g roup of an
unknown — several <iays work.
" H e who l aughs last , l aughs
bes t , " is an express ion Bob Bur-
rows would do well to remember .
As several l a rge beakers and a t e s t
tube fell to t he floor a t one side
of t he room and spa t t e r ed the i r
contents in all d i rect ions Bob, who
was a t them other side of the room,
broke into a broad smile, suddenly
his look changed, and he exclaimed,
"Hey , w h a t a m I l augh ing a t ?
They a re mine ! ! ! "
Embryology s tuden t s had the i r first t a s t e of a Lab t e s t th is p a s t
week. Twen ty ques t ions were asked on the tes t , and answered by plac-ing the pointer of t he microscope upon the posit ion desired. One s tu-
dent t h a t d idn ' t do too well was hea rd to say, " I would have go t t en them all, bu t I j u s t didn ' t w a n t to s t r a in my eyes ."
Best of luck to B u r t Phi l ips and Howie Claus who have ju s t t aken the i r medical ap t i t ude tes t s .

H O P E COLLEGE A N C H O R
W A A Promotes Women's Sports on Hope's Campus
H a v e y o u s e e n t h e l e t t e r s
W.A.A.? Do you know wha t they
m e a n ? If you haven ' t seen the let-te r s or if you have seen them and don't know wha t they mean, i t 's high t ime you found out. W.A.A. s t ands f o r Women's Athlet ic Asso-ciation of Hope College. This or-ganizat ion has set up in t ramura l s to provide an opportuni ty fo r gir ls
to enjoy recreational activities out-side of class. Every girl on cam-pus a s soon as she regis ters be-comes a member of the association. Being a member enables her to par-t ic ipate in every sport offered by W.A.A. in i ts in t ramura l p rogram which has been steadily growing and will continue to grow. The W.A.A. offers bowling, badminton, volleyball, hiking, riding, archery, basketbal l , ping-pong, tennis and sof tba l l ; making it possible for every gir l to par t ic ipate in both in-dividual spor ts and team sports. The awards given fo r part icipation in a sufficient amount of sports are ; f i r s t year, class numera l ; sec-ond year , a le t ter H; third year, an emblem; four th year, a t rophy.
The W.A.A. sponsors several play-days dur ing a year at which t ime many gir ls can become ac-quainted with s tudents f rom other schools.
Our W.A.A. is a member of the Women's Michigan Intercollegiate Athlet ic Association. Through this organizat ion we can observe the s p i r t s p rogram at Alma, Albion, Adrian, Hillsdale and Kalamazoo. In the fall one of the five schools is hostess to the other four a t a play day. Las t year it was our privilege to en te r ta in the W.M.I.A. on our campus.
Although most of the spor ts a re in t ramura l , W.A.A. does have a tennis team which competes with o ther schools. Every spr ing a three day tennis meet is held at one of the M.I.A.A. schools. Hope has won first place once, tied fo r first place once and won second place.
The W.A.A. is under the direc-tion of Miss Breid and Miss Van Dommelen assisted by a board of twelve members . Three board mem-bers a r e chosen f rom each class by election in the spr ing of each year. The f r e s h m a n representa t ives a re chosen in the fall . When a junior is elected to the board, she auto-matical ly becomes a permanent member and is on the board fo r her junior and senior years.
The W.A.A. is working very hard to s t imulate interest in women's a thlet ics and to provide a varied p rogram so t h a t every girl on cam-
pus can select a t least one recrea-tional act ivi ty which she can enjoy. Let 's keep it t h a t way! The outlook thus f a r is most promising.
Mission Drive (Continued f r o m Page 1)
the last two years has been used to raise the money necessary f o r the conversion of the school to i t s n igher capacities. With the money tha t was raised, amazing s t r ides have been made. Mr. Barnabas , the Indian principal of the school, re-cently reported some of the t h i n g s tha t have been done. The first h igh school class was opened in 1949, t he second or middle class in 1950, and provisions have been made f o r the opening of the last class next yea r . The buildings have received the i r first repai r since their construct ion m 1910, new fu rn i t u r e has been procured, and a s t a r t has been made on the necessary science and library equipment . An addit ional ouilding f o r c r a f t smansh ip ins t ruc-tion is being built, and a projec tor i'or audio-visual i n s t r u c t i o n ha s oeen procured.
India 's fu tu re , jus t as the f u t u r e of America, lies in its youth. The blessings t h a t a Christ ian ins t i tu-tion can br ing to the supers t i t ious Indian people a re infinite, and it should hence give us, as s tuden ts jf Hope College, a deep sa t i s fac -tion to know tha t we have once again renewed the thril l ing fellow-jhip between our College and Hope
High School.

Crusade For Freedom Head Expresses Thanks
Victor G. Reuther , s t a t e chair-man of the Crusade fo r Freedom has expressed his thanks f o r par -ticipation in the dedication of the Freedom Bell.

Publication Of Book By Dr. Schrier Announced
Dr. William Schrier, head of the Speech Department, has recently published a book entitled Gerrit J. Diekema, Orator, which is of special interest to Hope College, being a study of one of the most illustrious Hope alumni. The book is an objective study of Diekema as an orator, biography being incidental, but the author could not help revealing an excellent por t ra i t of a man who, dur ing his
long career, was one of the best
known Holland Americans of his
day.
Diekema was a g radua te of the
Hope College P repa ra to ry Depart-
ment and Hope College in 1881.
While a s tudent here, he was very
active as a speaker a t various cam-
pus events. La te r he served for
many years in the capacity of Hope
College Council Secretary, being zealous fo r the we l fa re and prog-ress of the college. An especially significant t r ibute was paid to Diekema in t r ibute to him at a civic banquet in 1923, when Dr. Edward D. Dimnent, said tha t "it was largely through the guiding hand of Mr. Diekema for for ty years tha t the school has become
what it is today."
Dr. Schrier is in many specific ways ideally suited to the task of analyzing Diekema's speaking ca-reer. He is highly skilled in evalu-at ing speech-making and al though this is his first fu l l - length book. Dr. Schrier has authored many a r -ticles re la t ing to speech. Dr. Schrier was in a fo r tuna te position to have access to original sources of research concerning Diekema, and yet f a r enough removed in point of t ime, a f t e r a perspective of twenty years since Diekema's death, to be able to view his career objectively. The book deserves the sympathet ic interest not merely of readers who are of Dutch descent but of all those who believe tha t our national cul ture has m a n y roots.

cider and doughnuts were the order of the evening. Bob Eyer ly and I r m a Smith were co-chairmen of
t he event . Our first l i terary mee t ing was
g r ea t l y enjoyed by members and
pledges alike. Penny Wynalda was in charge of devotions as well as the r emainder of the p r o g r a m . The
t h e m e of the p rog ram was " W a s h -ing . " The " W e t W a s h " (humor pape r ) was done, mos t hi lar iously, by Sib Marge — I 'm a lways f u n n y
— Feldman. Sib/Hoogeveen was in
cha rge of the " D r y W a s h " (seri-ous ( ? ) pape r ) . She gave a very in te res t ing h is tory of l aundry tech-
niques. Sib Pierce told us all about he r Johann in a very clever l i t t le song. We spent the r e s t of t he evening learning and s ing ing g roup songs.
All A.S.A. members ga the red to-
g e t h e r in Chapel 16 on October 20

DELTA P H I
In the dim, dark den of Durfee basement on November 8, 1950,
Marge (Simon Lagree ) DeNeut swung her cane a t each Delphi
pledge as she s tepped up to the auction block. Carol Buseman s t a r t -
ed the dismal procession into the unknown while the r ema in ing six-teen suffocated in the one-door-no-
window ad jo in ing room. If " t h e y " din ' t kill us with f r i g h t the lack
of a i r would surely do the tr ick. One by one we pledges were pulled
into the depths . Reva Spicki t t took the bulk of the pun i shment upon
her shoulders when she was sold for an unreasonable ( ? ) sum. The
res t of t he evening Miss Spickit t and he r red silk ( ? ) s tockings kept
the fireplace wa rm in the r e a r of the room . . . Deiphians are so-o-o
considerate! The quest ion of the Delphi da t e n ight was approached in a round-about blunt way to each
pledge as she s tepped up to the
block — the "oldies" a r e a wee bit f r igh tened of the "new-blood" com-
peti t ion. Russ Norden seemed to be the most popular male on cam-pus with seventeen — oops, e ight-
een da tes f o r one n igh t . Vice Pres ident Sandy Lanning
welcomed the pledges to the i r first l i terary meet ing with Delta Phi on November 10. Old business was dis-cussed with the date n igh t holding
the spot l ight . "The Court Sh ip" sailed us th rough the theme of t he p rogram which was very nicely
planned by Anne t te and J e a n n e t t e Siderius. Carol V a n L a r e read the devotions. Delphi Veldman t raced
courtship and love ( s igh! ) t h rough the ages in the f o r m of a le t ter .
Most of t he pointers were f ami l i a r to us old- t imer Hop i t e s . ' We have
heard them many t imes before . A sexte t s a n g "One Ki s s " which even the pledges have to a d m i t was ye ry
well done. "Hope College Court-sh ip" was the theme f o r the humor paper read by J u n e Duns te r .
Pledge Hunger ink shrunk to a br i l l iant red spot on the maroon
carpe t . A poem composed and read by Lynn Van Weelden summed up the evening very well and gave t h e
pledges an incentive as f u t u r e crit ics.

Roy Adelberg led us in devotions a t our November 10 meet ing. A f t e r the roll was called, a shor t business
mee t ing was held. A t the l i t e ra ry meet ing. Gene Bont aga in led us in spir i ted s inging. Ron Kolkman, ou r "deadpan" a r t i s t , delivered
himself of a humor paper . Con-g ra tu l a t ions a re in order f o r con-t r ibu to r s to 1000 Jokes Magazine,
whose lively pieces were effectively underplayed in a highly humorous
manner . L a u g h t e r was genera l , even a f t e r Ron s ta r ted . For our ser ious paper , A1 Arwe gave ex-
t remely effective in te rpre t ive read-ings f r o m several poems which
came out of both World Wars . His choices revealed the difference be-tween the romant ic idealism of
World W a r I and the more adu l t and realist ic outlook of World W a r
II. The presen ta t ion was a piece of work well done.
The Arcad ians wish to t hank the i r float chai rmen, Gordon Schip-
per and Hans Veening, and the i r helpers, t he i r house decorat ions cha i rman, Don Sikkenga, and his
helpers, and the i r Home Coming Break fa s t cha i rman , A1 Arwe , f o r

and Pledge Dave H a a s del ineated
a f e w choice anecdotes about va r i -ous members of t h e f r a t e r n i t y . The
t i t le of the i r pape r , consequently, was "Dedicat ion N i g h t . " Fol lowing
this, Ted Stickels gave the m a s t e r -cr i t ic 's repor t . Group s inging, led
by Bob Stoppels, concluded t h e meet ing.
L a t e r in the evening Cosmos aga in assembled — this t ime fo r a
bit of s inging. A f t e r a f ew las t minutes of pract ice, t he march to
the campus was on. The boys then serenaded the g i r l s of Van Vleck, Durfee , and Voorhees Halls . By
vir tue of a borrowed pick-up t ruck . Bill La ing was able to f u r n i s h

The Cosmo's t r iumph in the home-

of applause went to Dale De W i t t

The mee t ing was opened wi th

By means of cons tant compar ison and vivid description, S teg suc-

George! Who would have though t
Old Dads Bishop and Hennings
could repeal the laws and fo r sake
the cloth long enough to incite

mor paper , but since it wasn ' t on
paper , F r s . Bishop and Hennings
have been voted bodily into the
archives . As of last F r iday they
are t ak ing up housekeeping in the
t rophy room, a l ias television pa r -
lor. Renowned o ra to r , Guy Vander
J a g t , also presented somewhat of
a problem. Since he wrote only the
first half of his serious paper
( t i t led " T h o u g h t s on Thanksgiv-
ing ," or "The F i f t y Year Hang-
over ," or "Fill ' e r Up, Dad") , he
extemporized the last half and was
voted into the archives only up to
his neck. Dick S tewar t concluded
last F r iday ' s melee with a rousing
c lar ine t solo, "Donkey Serenade ,"
in r emembrance of the Democrat ic pa r ty , no doubt.
I t migh t be of in teres t to t he f r i ends and re la t ives of our

Coach A1 V a n d e r b u s h h a s comple ted his s ix th season a s head footbal l
m e n t o r a t Hope. D u r i n g these six y e a r s " b i g A l " h a s never had a
los ing season. Ye t Vande rbush c h a r g e s have n e v e r won an M I A A
Championsh ip .
V a n d e r b u s h is a s ix - l e t t e r g r a d u a t e of t he dep res s ion c lass , 1929.
E x a c t l y t en y e a r s a f t e r his g r a d u a t i o n he won t h e ci ty c h a m p i o n s h i p
wi th his South High eleven, and r epea ted t he p e r f o r m a n c e the fo l -
lowing y e a r .
The N a v y noticed these championsh ip f e a t s and soon Al w a s do ing
his t ime a s a l i eu tenan t . He come to Hope in N o v e m b e r , 1945, a n d
took over the coach ing re ins t he next yea r . His first t e a m won six
and lost two wi th five t e a m s be ing unab le to c ros s t he Hope goal . In
1947 the V a n d e r b u s h coached eleven won five, lost two , and t ied Ka la -
mazoo. In '48 t he Dutch won five and lost t h r e e . L a s t y e a r ' s g r e a t
squad won seven con te s t s and dropped t he b ig one to Hi l l sdale . Th i s
y e a r s t e a m , of course , finished wi th a 4 won, 3 loss, and one t ied record .
F o r a l l - a round consis tency t he V a n d e r b u s h record is ha rd to bea t .
His t e a m s have been s t r o n g c o n t e n d e r s f o r t he c rown every year . De-
sp i te th i s o u t s t a n d i n g record Hope has won no c o n f e r e n c e t i t les . W h y ?
One r eason m i g h t be the s ty le of foo tba l l t h a t V a n d e r b u s h t e a m s
p lay . The s t r a i g h t - f o r w a r d type of footbal l is all r i g h t , but in th is d a y
of h igh sco r ing t h e r e a r e ce r t a in s i t ua t i ons in which a l i t t le razz le
dazzle p l ay is necessa ry and a d v a n t a g e o u s . Hope t e a m s have been
known f o r t h e i r line p lay , but t h e r e a r e t imes when s t a u n c h line p l a y
and p o w e r a r e not enough . If the Hope a t t a c k were to open u p a l i t t le bi t , t he s p e c t a t o r ce r t a in ly
would not ob jec t . Maybe s o m e t h i n g like th is is w h a t ' s needed to increase
t he a t t e n d a n c e , which h a s been r a t h e r poor .
A n o t h e r r eason why Hope h a s not cashed in on a M I A A footbal l t i t l e
m i g h t be the t y p e of schedule t h a t we play . I don ' t see w h e r e p l a y i n g
an a g g r e g a t i o n like G r a n d Rap ids J C can accompl i sh a n y good. It
m i g h t be a r g u e d t h a t in such a g a m e a coach has an oppo r tun i t y to
work w i th h is r e se rves see w h a t they can do u n d e r g a m e condi t ions ,
but th is could be done in p rac t i ce sess ions too.
I bel ieve t h a t J C and Michigan N o r m a l should be rep laced on Hope ' s
schedule by schools t h a t play a b e t t e r b r and of foo tba l l . T h e win, loss
record migh t su f f e r a l i t t le , but in t he long run it would t end to improve
the ca l iber of Hope ' s foo tba l l . By p l ay ing b e t t e r t e a m s a squad h a s an o p p o r t u n i t y to learn to p l ay
good foo tba l l t h a t is not o the rwi se p r e sen t ed . Th i s is t r u e in e v e r y
spor t . Footba l l p l aye r s of b e t t e r ca l iber m i g h t be a t t r a c t e d to Hope ' s
c a m p u s if Hope were to play l a r g e r and more widely acc la imed schools.
An o u t s t a n d i n g high school p l a y e r would be m o r e l ikely to a t t e n d
school he re if he knew in foo tba l l he would be p l a y i n g a topno tch
schedule . This m i g h t be why Hope doesn ' t d r a w m o r e foo tba l l p l a y e r s
f r o m the E a s t . F r e d Yonkman is the only m e m b e r of t h i s y e a r s squad
f r o m t h a t p a r t of the na t ion . Ye t abou t 25 pe r cen t of t he s t uden t body
is f r o m the E a s t . These m i g h t be r ea sons w h y Hope can ' t seem to win a foo tba l l
c rown. Maybe Hope h a s n ' t had a squad of c h a m p i o n s h i p cal iber , nobody
will e v e r know.

Utrmie't "Inn"
University of Nehroska
Lincoln, Nebraska
In Lincoln, Nebraska, a favorite
gathering spot of students at the
University of Nebraska is Hermie's
"Inn" because it is a cheerful place
—full of friendly university atmos-
phere. And when the gang gathers
around, ice-cold Coca-Cola gets the
call. For here, as in university
haunts everywhere—Coke belongs.
Ask for it either way . . . both
trade-marks mean the same thing.
