In a contest featured by the rough tactics employed by both teams, Hope emerged victorious with a 21—10 ver-dict over the Huntington College quintet of Indiana. The Hoosiers presented a fas t aggregation and Schouten's crew won only af ter a hard struggle. Cox, the visitors right forward, brought fear to the locals when on the first tip-off he dropped the ball directly thru the loops for a two point lead. Bonbrach also found the basket, but Riemersma kept Hope in the running with two field goals from the center of the floor. Capt. Irving and Albers also counted for Hope and aided by 2 free throws from Poppen, they managed to hold a 9-8 lead to the end of the half. Capt. Regnier scored twice from the field during this half for Huntington. But two points were all that the vis-itors could count during the second period. ^JThese came from fouls, not a basket being allowed^ Hopes regu-lars were sent in the latter part of the half and they finished the con-test. The Orange and Blue scored 12 points in the last period, Ottipoby opening the scoring with a next rin-ger. Yonkman and Irving added to Hope's total and Riemersma also cashed in twice with field goals. /

Bailey, Huntington's left forward, was banished from the floor near the close of the contest when he used un-necessary roughness.

The visitors went down hard in de-fea t but Hope showed superior team-work. Van Lente played a flne game at guard, and Riemersma, besides helping to stop the visitors on-slaughts, managed to count four field goals so to these two men goes the bulk of Hope's credit for victory.

The Reserves won their contest over the Bethanys of Muskegon. The score 23—6 does not indicate the slowness of the contest as the Re-serves established a record, playing a full 12 minutes before scoring a point. Bogerding for Muskegon and Van Der Meer for Hope proved the bright lights m the contest.

With ever the goal in sight Drama-tic Club moves rapidly forward. The astonishingly large number who manifested enough interest to try out for membership, and the splendid work exhibited, could not help but add zest to the already spirited plans. It was a trifle disappointing that on-ly seven vacancies could be filled. The successful candidates were Mar-thena Bayles, Aleen De Jonge, Esther Boer, Alice Caldwell, Mildred Ramak-er, James De Pree, and Leland De Vinney.

No doubt it will be of general inter-est to learn that the Dramatic Club has engaged Mrs. Wolfe of Grand Rapids to coach the annual play which will be given in the latter part of February.

There the spirit of the New Year was heartily welcomed by all. For everyone became actively engaged in the songs and games which ranged all the way from imaginary romances of? (ask Jack P.) to those exercises which may well be known as "stimu-lants for speed in thought."

—o— Many Alumni Present

EMERSONIANS HAVE LESSON IN EARLY RISING

—o-Hold Elections at Sunrise Meeting

At six o'clock in the morning of Dec. 19, 1923 the Emersonians held their winter term election. Amid pooyly suppressed yawns and fre-quents ' demands of "when do we e a t ? " the following men were elected: President—Clarence R. Lubbers. Vice President—Russel Van Dyke. Secretary—Delbert Kinney. T reasu re r -Barna rd Luben.

The Annual Alumni Stag of the Fraternal Society was duly celebrat-ed at the Pantlind Hotel, Grand Rapids, Dec. 28. Active members and alumni assembled in goodly number to enjoy each others fellowship. In the seclusion of the Rotary Club Room, the company enjoyed the menu from cocktail to coffee. When the dishes were removed the program was in order. Fra ter Boone, as toast-master, began the wit and wander-ing. Frater P. Hinkamp called for a ringing in of the new. Frater E. Winter spoke of preaching and pairs. From afar, Fra ter W. Hoekje brought the message of the world. Fra ter J.. A. Dykstra finished with his toast to, "All We Fraters." Music by Fresh-man Fraters added spice to the rea-sonings. Then for a time, the hall echoed with the "New Frater 's Song," and shook as the snake dance wound between the tables in step with the old Frater 's song. After the hearty handshake and a few words, the company disbanded, mindful of "the clustering memories" of Fra-ternal fellowship.

THE QUESTION: Do you think that students who

have an average of 90 per cent or above in any certain subject should be exempt from the examination?

Laura Alice Boyd, Instructor in German: No. To my mind there are three distinct benefits to be derived from taking an examination—why de-prive a student of them because he has made a grade of 90% or more?

1. A careful review. Theoretically this does not depend upon an ex-amination but practically it does.

2. Systematizing of the knowledge acquired during the semester's study in such a way as to make for mastery of the subject.

The ability to recall specific facts, promptly.

Pearl Palman, '24: The examination system has no more friends than a detective agency. And why? Be-cause it entraps the unworthy. If a student has a mark of 90% or above in any subject, why should he fear an examination in that subject? The worth of the examination has been doubted by educational specialists, but why do away with any system with no better method in view for driving out the laggards?

Walter E. Roughgarden, '25: No! Marks are not representative of a student's ability, but are oftimes in-fluenced by favoritism and past per-formance. Thus undeserving stu-dents would often acquire a reputa-tion for brilliancy while earnest work-ers might be unrecognized. If we are to make exemptions, why not abolish Examinations completely, for , a f te r all. th^y are merely burdens upon both teabhers and students and are entirely unnecessary.

L d i T O i i ^ I X ON EDITORIALS

What's the use of being visionary? What's the use of be-ing young and ready to reform the world?. What's the use of writing editorials ?

Plenty of use! They say the boys in khaki took the trenches and won the day simply because they didn't know the impossible couldn't be done. At bit of American brag, perhaps, but theore-tically true. If there is any group on earth that is severely critical of the present regime it is the college student body. Of course we undergraduates at Hope know the very malady that ails the school, the community and the nation. We dissect an 1 probe the wound and then in triumph announce that we have dis-covered the sovereign cure for all the world's ills. And we have. Of course it isn't always practical; of course we don't ses the complications that hinder the cure. But surely, surely our burn-ing youthful enthusiasms are not engendered in vain. We are not young simply because it is pleasant to be romantic. The present student body has a distinct contribution to make to society. We are gaining our incentive now as we find our flaws and plead our cause. If we are to be effective we must advance. So on with the oration, the debate and the editorial. That's the use.

KEEP IT UP! The appeal which was made recently for more Anchor re-

porters and feature editors, has already been answered by near-ly a dozen particapants in the reporter's examinations, and several willing candidates for feature work. Such results are indeed gratifying af ter being so long unable to fill the need in the past. Moreover, we feel sure that these writers of tVn future really mean business, and we know that with that atti-tude they must be successful and well rewarded in their work. We hope, however, that this is only a beginning of increasing interest in the literary work of the school, and are waiting ex-pectantly for others, who have caught a vision of the oppor-tunity, to press forward and make tangible their desires. We feel that a reader's interest in the Anchor must be directly pro-portional to the number of people interested in its makeup. We must see that that number is increased.

chaperon for the first part of the tr ip and Mrs. Durfee, the latter part. Well, Anne hadn't finished giggling before we were hurried off to Mil-waukee, where we were to take an in-terurban for Cedar Grove. We didn't see any at the station. Mighty pret-ty station but no cars! We felt like "your cousins from the country." But Mabelle took good care of us, so we reached Cedar Grove a t 10:45 P. M. and found that the whole town had gone to see Hope play a game in She-boygan, and only two people were left to meet us.

Thursday, we had supper together. The program that night was short, but Janet must have thought it long, with Fritz and some of the other Basket Ball men in the audience. Af-terwards we all went to the parson-age next door and might have had a regular party except that it was too crowded.

Friday, it was back to Milwaukee, and af ter a dinner, with toasts and everything, at the church, we gave our second concert, with some num-bers by the quartette added to the one of the night before. The following is what they said about us in the church paper:

"Connoisseurs of music remark about their art , the uncritical testify to their delight in the program—and all unanimously felt their modesty. Their genuineness beyond a cavil, their wholesomeness beyond a doubt, carried far ther than any individual endowment which was always sub-dued, or group performance which was never slap-dash or shoddy."— Now, who could be modest a f ter that?

Sunday, we were in Chicago over the week-end — that 's . where Jack Blaauw took^ care of us. We found his picture on almost every piano in Englewood. We gave 'i sacred con-

cert Sunday, and Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday we were a t 1st Chi-cago, 2nd Englewood, and Roseland, respectively. Tuesday we had a wild night, It started oi? with a very in-teresting church supper. Then, at the beginning of the program, something happened to Ardean's hands, so we had to make the best of it. After that the Roseland group was strand-ed in an auto, in the worst part of the city, and the Englewood group had to walk part of the way home. A wild time, but no wilder than the holi-day celebration all around.

Wednesday, Mabel Nienhuis took Ardean's place. It was a happy thing that she lives in Chicago. The Rose-land concert ended the Chicago stay.

Thursday, Kalamazoo! and Paul Gebhard met us,—all of us, of course. If we ever think of crowded audiences we'll think of Kazoo!

Friday, January 4, Detroit! the bootlegger and automobile city. Isla, and Barky, and Pearl and Janet must have seen more thrilling things in it than that, however. Pearl knew Harold, and Harold knew his way around, so Saturday we went sight-seeing, as we had done before in Chicago, and Milwaukee, and Cedar Grove. We squeezed in a very ex-hilarating hour for the radio concert and afterwards we had luncheon at "The Cabin Chop Shop." Those who didn't have special interests in Detroit, left for 'Grand Rapids on the 6 o'clock train with part of the team —you see, we met every once in a while. It was late, late at night when we came to Holland.

This doesn't tell half of it. You haven't heard about Mift-ie Kruyf's Mew Yer.v's dinner, or Ange Poppen's "ham and che3se." Perhaps you don't oven know what our performance was 'ike—who the soloists were— etc. etc. We never met more hospitable people in our lives. In fact, we couldn't help

having a nice time and doing our noblest with their kindness and courtesy back of us.

Now it's all over and there's sort of a lull. Mrs. Fenton says our voices sound like tin-pans. Mrs. Durfee made us think we were back on our trip again, when she entertained us at supper on Friday—and at an even more lovely "bouquet" shower af ter-wards. Our first trip—and it seems very probably that there'll be others. Remember, now, everybody, we are no longer, the B Natural Chorus, a local organization, we are now the well-worn, well-travelled Girls' Glee Club of Hope College.

GIRLS BEGIN YEAR WITH DIS-CUSSION OF "ALL THINGS

NEW" The first meeting of the Y. W. girls

in 1924 was one of inspiration and interest. It marked the beginning of a new year in which it was felt that the quiet hour of deVotion spent in Y. W. each week should take a great part.

The meeting was opened with a song service and scripture readings. The prayer circle which -followed, showed a spirit of reverence and resolve to make more of our Chris-tian lives this year. At its conclusion, Marie De Cook and Edna Reeverts sang a duet, "Holy Spirit."

The topic for discussion, All Things New, was a fitting one for this sea-son. Mary Boer spoke on the New Year as an occasion not for consi-deration of past deeds and events but a time for looking to the future in which Christ alone must be our Guide—letting the New Year bells ring Him into our hearts. Adelaide Borgman continued the thought show-ing that this would be an appropriate season to put on the "new man" de-scribed by Paul and to make our lives Christ-like through prayer.

to put forth greater efforts in his daily preparation in order to keep his average high. I am sure that it would place greater emphasis upon daily preparation which is the secret of all fuccess, and thus do away with a great deal of harmful "cramming" for exams. Also. I am confident that if such a scheme were adopted the in-structors would be more particular in grading their students and thus the standard of the institution would be raised. It would appear, therefore, F.uch a system would be beneficial both from the standpoint of the school and of the student. Since the welfare of the student and that of the school are of most vital importance, I would recommend such a plan.

Ezbert H. Fell, '27: It is largely through the examination and the re-view previous to it that fixes in the mind of a student that which he has tried to acquire throughout the year. lOven those with an average of 90% nr above could not afford missing the benefits derived from an examination. I don't believe that any student re-ceiving such grades, and who is at school to get the most out of his education would want to be exempt.

Some might say it would encourage higher scholarship. It might for a short time; but I don't think it would

last. Correction

Dear "Inquisitive Reporter":—May I call your attention to several glar-ing errors that appeared in your column, in the recent issue of The Anchor, under date of December 19th? They appear in my answer to vour query—"How can The Anchor be improved?" How cruel and adverse is fate, to discover that the head of the English department should find his article offering advice, ex cathe-dra, should have been so badly gar-bled. You tell me that the "copy" was given to the printer in perfect form. I believe you. Who, then, is to blame for these errors? Is it the linotype man? Cudgel him, I say! Is it the proof reader? Depose him, I say! An academic publication should be without error—at least, without egregious blunders.

The following are the errors refer-red to:—"moral," for morale; "cap-tions," for captious; "hypocritical," for hypercritical; "ad nausoam," for ad nauseam. Another error—of care-lessness, and not ignorance—is found in "impovement," fqr improvement.

Knowing that you, as well as I, have a high regard for purity of style and correctness as to point and period, I ask that this communication be accorded a place in the next issue of The Anchor.

Sincerely yours, J . B. Nykerk.

Electrical machines bearing the mark of the General Electric Com-pany, in use throughout the world, are raising standards of living by doing the work of mil-lions of men.

But nobody had thought to do it

By bringing electricity down from the clouds over a kite string, it was a simple thing to prove that lightning was nothing more than a tremendous electrical flash..

For centuries before Franklin flew his kite in 1751 philosophers had been speculating about the nature of lightning. With elec-trified globes and charged bottles, others had evolved the theory that the puny sparks of the laboratory and the stupendous phenom-enon of the heavens were related; but Franklin substituted fact for theory — by scientific experiment

Roaring electrical discharges, man-made lightning as deadly as that from the clouds, are now produced by scientists in the Re-search Laboratories of the General Electric Company. They are part of experiments which are making it possible to use the power of mountain torrents farther and far-ther from the great industrial centers.

was at Rockford four days, from Friday the twenty-eighth until New Year's Day.

The first event was a basket ball *ame between the Hope gospel team

• and the Rockford High School team. The score was 16 to 8 in favor of the gospel team. After the game there was a social period so that all might become acquainted. On Saturday there was a hike to Meyer's Lake with a

, "weeny" roast. The Boy Scouts and most of the younger boys took par t in this feature under the direction of the Hopeites. Games were played and an opportunity was given to exhibit clean sportmanship and fair play.

On Sunday morning, services were held in the Methodist and Congrega-tional churches by the gospel team. Also, they assisted in the Sunday School by teaching some of the class-es. In the afternoon there was a meeting for men and boys at which young men's problems were discussed. To cap the climax a dedication service was held Sunday evening at which the appeal was made for the dedication of lives to Christ, a f ter each member of the team had given his testimony for Christ. In response to this call twelve lads came forward to take their stand for Jesus with the Hopeites and two girls confessed their Saviour later in the evening. It was a day of great happiness and real joy for each mem-ber of the team.

Monday noon the team was invited to a dinner given by Plus Ultra, the girls' Sunday School Class. Af ter the dinner was over and the fun had sub-sided another appeal for volunteers

. for Christ was made and fourteen girls responded. Monday evening had been designated as "Watch Night". Previous to the "Watch Night" ser-vice there was an entertainment given by the team and also there was a great opportunity afforded for per-sonal work among the young people. Then while the New Year dawned, the last call was given and five more young pepole confessed Jesus Christ, as their personal Saviour. This made

total of thirty-three young lives

It made the trip 100% more enjoyable for the girls to meet Hope's Alumni along the way. At Cedar Grove there was Peggy Van Der Wall and Herb. Mentink both of last year's graduat- ' ing class, and Bill Ten Haken. home. from the University of Wisconsin for the Holidays. At Milwaukee the minister of the church in which the Club sang was a Hope graduate, Mr. Ter Keurst '14, and he gave the girls' a royal reception. Mrs. Rove, nee Margaret Piet, '20, entertained the Club at a tea at her home, the after-noon the girls arrived in Milwaukee. In Chicago, John Dalenberg '20, was chairman of the committee in charge of arrangements for the girla^ five day stay there. Tonnetta Tei&nga '21, Lina Dalenberg '22, Ward De Jonge' 22, Grace Mercen'22, were just a few of the many Alumni who helped swell the audiences at the different concerts in Chicago. Margaret Van Zee '23, was as happy to see the girls as they were to see her a f te r the concert in Kalamazoo. Mr. Harris Meyer 15, and Mrs. Meyer con-gratulated the Club af ter the concert, and invited the girls to visit their new places of business. In Detroit the Rev. Mr. Veltman '92, took charge of tfie girls, ably assisted by his son Harold Veltman '22. You'll find Hope's Alumni wherever you go, and whenever you do you will always be assured a hearty and cordial welcome. There is sure to be a talk first-ques-tions to be asked; old times to. be talked over, and old ties strengthen-ed.

Sixteen days of the Leap year gone and yet no "leaping" or "stepping out" has been reported. Any nlember of the hat-lifting sex who regards this as to the portents of a Leafless Lear Year is reminded that perm the girls are "looking before th< leap" as well as "watching their step."

Our bashful editor has no doubt that the Seniors will exercise their fourth year preogative of "popping the question." He wagers that this year the men will be co-educated and that now "steadies" will supercede studies.

We congratulate Peter De Graff upon his successful campaign which has eventuated in his nomination as a candidate for the silent majority.

Dumbdora, from whom we get all of our information has it that Jack Soeter has become a successful suitor. All of which goes to confirm our be-lief that in courting as in marbles one should never play for "keeps."
