Friendship Will Be Theme

For International Night Friendship through world under-

standing is the theme for Interna-tional Night, sponsored by Alcor, to be held in the Temple Building March 3.

The main dish on the banquet menu will be chicken, rice and curry, prepared in the Indian fash-ion. German, Dutch, Chinese, Ara-bian, French, Austrian, and South American dishes will complete the a r ray of exotic foods planned for that night.

The program is planned in the form of a travelogue. Thus fa r , a gui ta r solo representing Mexico, a skit about China, and Arabian poetry reading are to be included. A "World Fashion Show" will be held to display authentic costumes f rom the various countries. The talent among the foreign students and missionaries' children will be utilized.

Formal dress will bo the order of the day for the girls; fellows are asked to wear suits. It is being stressed that International Night is not a date affair .

Tickets will be on sale next week. Students who eat in the dorm may

purchase theirs f o r seventy-five cents; others are $1.25.

Globes, s i g n i f y i n g the "One World Through Understanding", will be the central table decora-tions. Attached by ribbons leading to their countries, will be numer-ous small articles of interest from the various countries. A world map will be constructed with pins and lables locating the homes of the foreign students. The llags of the various nations will be displayed, with welcome signs in the different languages. A display table with larger objects from the foreign countries will also be set up in the dining hall.

Esther Schmidt, president of Al-cor, is general chairman of the affair . Margaret Moerdyk and Miss Emma Reeverts are in charge of the committee on food. They are assisted by Farid Anton, Maisie Korteling, M a r g a r e t DeValois, Yohannes Menkir, Hamid Tadayon, and Lawrence Fabumni.

Decorations are being planned by Ruth DeGraaf, Dona Sluyter, Lor-raine Van Farrowe, and Dr. Sinnia Billups. Garbo Zeng, M a r j o r i e Pickens, Sam Pickens, Ruth Koep-pe, Dorothy Moerdyk, Casper Ul-tee, Ricardo Esparza, Kathy Kemp-

Special Committee Begins Functioning

A Student C o u n c i l - a p p o i n t e d Dining Hall C o m m i t t e e recently s tar ted functioning; this is the first of a proposed number of special student-faculty-administration com-mittees designed to deal with spe-cific campus problems. The Dining Hall C o m m i t t e e , c o m p o s e d of Canute Vander Meer, Hilda Baker, Mrs. K r o n e m e y e r , Mrs. French, Miss Holleman, Mr. Visscher, Miss Reeverts, E d n a P i e r c e , R o b e r t Kranendonk, and Charles Mulder, held its initial meeting on Febru-ary 8 and a s e c o n d m e e t i n g on February 15. P r e s i d e n t Lubbers and Student Council President Nick Yonker were present at these meet-ings to help define the p u r p o s e s , the legislative procedure, and the a g e n d a of t h e n e w l y - f o r m e d committee.

The Dining Hall Committee, as its name implies, was appointed as a representative group to deal with all dining hall problems that have been raised by students, faculty, or administration. E d n a P i e r c e was elected President of the group and Miss Holleman was elected Secre-tary a t the first m e e t i n g of t h e committee. T w o m a t t e r s w h i c h have been discussed at the commit-tee meetings are ways of improving Sunday evening meals and ways of improving the crowding at dining hall doors.

Nordyk Is Awarded Organ Scholarship

Stewart Nordyk, a F r e s h m a n f r o m G r a n d R a p i d s , h a s b e e n awarded the organ scholarship in the annual freshman-sophomore or-gan scholarship contest.

The contest was held Thursday evening February 9, a t 7:00 o'clock. At this time three students Marilyn Veldman, Barbara Bruins, and Mr. Nordyk competed. The winner was chosen by the music faculty of the college. The prize consists of two semesters of organ lessons which are valued at eighty dollars.

Long To Analyze College Program

Dean Long, Professor of Eco-nomics at E v a n s v i l l e C o l l e g e , Evansville, Indiana, is visiting our campus today as one of seven co-ordinators of the North Central Association Study C o m m i t t e e on Liberal Arts Education. Of the sev-eral hundred colleges in the North Central Association, Hope is one of seventy which have joined together to carry on a cooperative study of analyzing college p r o g r a m s and methods of dealing with common problems. An annual visit is made by one of these seven coordinators to each c o l l e g e in t h e group to work on the basic curriculum and evaluate the required courses.

Today, Professor Long will meet with the Special Study Committee of the facul ty and also with the Educational Policies Committee to d i s c u s s departmental comprehen-sive exams for all seniors.

At 12:15 today there will be a din-ner meeting of the entire faculty with Professor L o n g to d i s c u s s improving community-campus re-lations. There will also be four or five professors from Alma present.

P r o f e s s o r Long visited Adrian ct liege on Monday of this week and spent Tuesday and Wednesday at Alma.

7 Dr. Hollenbach was recently ap-pointed one of these coordinators, and as such, will make an annual visit to ten or twelve other col-leges, in t h e s a m e c a p a c i t y a s Professor Long, here today.

Appointed Committee Will Plan Furnishings

President Irwin J . Lubbers an-nounced recently that a committee has been appointed to plan the fu r -nishings f o r t h e n e w w o m e n ' s dormitory. Money for the furnish-ings is being raised by the Hope College Women's League an organ-ization of women from churches of the Synod of Chicago interested in living conditions of Hope women. This league originated as a group to furnish the lounge of Voorhees Hall, now holding an annual meet-ing on the Hope campus each fall. The committee on furnishings will be composed of college personnel and league icnresentatives, includ-ing Miss Reeverts, Mr. Visscher, Mrs. Pelgrim, Dr. Lubbers, Mrs. Westerhoff , M r s . Y o u n g , M r s . Albers, and Mrs. Brooks.

Biology Club Will Receive

Beta Beta Beta Charter Tonight at a banquet in Temple

Lounge the Hope College Biology Club will receive its char ter as the Alpha E ta Chapter of Beta Beta Beta National Honorary Biological Fra terni ty . Twenty-nine students will be inducted as charter mem-bers.

Dr. Earl Bowen, Professor of Biology at Gettysburg College, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, will be present to conduct the initiation ceremony and to address the group a f t e r the banquet. Dr. Bowen is the Regional Vice-President of Beta Beta Beta in the Northwestern Region of the United States.

Tri-Beta is affiliated with the American Association for the Ad-vancement of Science. The official publication. Bios, will publish ar-ticles by students.

The twenty-nine charter mem-

bers are: Gerard Gnade, President;

Don De Witt, Vice-President; Doro-

thy Kranandonk, Secretary, Ted

McGee, T r e a s u r e r ; Gerald Van

Arendonk, Merrill Noordhoff, Bob

Miss Jennie Spoelstra, Mr. James

Unger, and Mr. Oscar Thompson

will be present also.

Beta Beta Beta is a society for

students of the biological sciences.

It seeks to encourage scholarly at-ta inment in this field of learning by reserving its membership for those who achieve superior ac-ademic records and who indicate special apti tude for the biological sciences. I t desires to cultivate in-tellectual interest in the natural sciences and to promote a better appreciation of the value of bio-logical study. It aims to advance the general objectives of education by making a worthy contribution to the curricular program of the

life sciences. Tri-Beta endeavors

to extend the boundaries of man's

knowledge of nature by encourag-

ing new discoveries through scien-

tific investigation. I t emphasizes,

therefore, a threefold program of

stimulation of sound scholarship,

dissemination of scientific knowl-

edge, and promotion of biological

research.

The organization took its name

from the three Greek Words Bal-

anos (an acorn) to represent life

in and on the ground, Boudetase

(a little bird) to represent life in

the air, and Boax (a fish) to repre-

sent life in the water.

Tri-Beta was organized in 1922,

and since then, 63 chapters have

received national charters. These

chapters are located in a group of

carefully selected colleges on both

sides of the globe. It represents a

world-encircling bond of congenial

scientific workers, seeking to be

mutually helpful in the search for

the secrets of the science of Life.

Such an organization should prove

a worth-while addition to Hope's

campus.

Mr. John J. Ver Beek

Ver Beek To Serve As Education Prof

Another of Hope's Alumni has returned to his Alma Mater to be-come a member of the faculty. Mr. John J. Ver Beek has come to serve as Professor of Education. Mr. Part ington, who held this position previously, has left Hope's teach-ing staff to be Assistant Superin-tendent of schools in Lansing, Mich. Mr. Ver Beek was a mem-ber of the Class of 1926. He re-ceived his M.S. f rom the University of Michigan in 1933.

Mr. Ver Beek's first position was as a teacher in Hudsonville High School. In 1927 he accepted the superintendency of the Byron Cen-ter Schools. While there he served as president of the Kent County Michigan Educational Association.

In 1944 he went to Muskegon as superintendent of the Henry Street and Glenside schools. In Muskegon he was elected President of the Muskegon County Teachers Club. He also became Vice-President of Hope's Muskegon Alumni chapter. He is a life member of the Michi-gan Education Association, and holds membership to the National Education A s s o c i a t i o n and the American Association of School Administrators .

As well as being active in his own profession, Mr. Ver Beek has held a position of leadership in civic and church affairs. At the present time he is Vice-President of the Y.'s Men, a service club of the Y.M.C.A. International. In the church he served as Vice-President of the consistory of the Central Re-formed Church of Muskegon. He was also Assistant Superintendent of the Sunday School there.

In a s tatement to this paper, Mr. VerBeek described his coming back to Hope as coming home and stated tha t he is very happy to be here and is looking forward to the experience. He feels that Hope's teachers have a definite place in the teaching profession.

The Ver Beek family has previ-ously had a member of the cam-pus. Jeanne, a Hope Junior, is a Music Major . The Ver Beek boys, John and Carl, now at tend the Muskegon High Schools.

P&M Will Give May Production

Palette and Masque is planning to present "Mr. Pim Passes By" by A. A. Milne as their next major production for the year. Final con-firmation is pending with Samuel French. The dates set for the play are May 17, 18, and 19.

Director f o r t h e p l a y w i l l be Raymond Martin, a senior member of the organization. Mr. Edward Avison will act as technical direc-tor. Hope ifi one of the few liberal arts schools in the country where a student can get experience by directing a major dramatic pro-duction.

Casting will begin when the sets are constructed and other neces-sary supplies gathered so that all rehearsals can be held with full sets and props. R e h e a r s a l s will probably begin the first week in April.

Dr. Jacob Prins, former Presi-dent of the General Synod of the Reformed Church and member of the National C o m m i t t e e for the United Evangelistic Advance, will be the p r i n c i p a l speaker during Hope College's annual R e l i g i o u s E m p h a s i s W e e k , F e b r u a r y 20 through 24. Dr. Prins is a graduate of Hope College f rom the class of 1924 and received his Bachelor of Divinity degree from Western The-ological Seminary in 1927. He has served four churches in Iowa and Michigan since that time.

In 1943 Dr. Prins was elected to the P r e s i d e n c y of the Reformed Church General Synod, and it was his unique privilege to preside over two of its sessions. During the first of these a change of rules occurred providing for succeeding presidents to be elected at the beginning of a session, as usual, but to take office a t the close.

Dr. Prins has been closely con-nected with the educational policies a n d facilities of t h e R e f o r m e d Church ; He has been a member of the board of t rustees at Central College and is now vice-president of the board at Hope, as well as serving on the executive committee. He has also contributed numerous articles to the Church Herald, offi-cial periodical of the denomination, and to publications of the Evangel-ical and Reformed, United Presby-terian, and M e t h o d i s t Churches. He has written and edited several booklets and pamphlets which have gained wide circulation among most of the Protestant denominations in America.

Similar Experiences Dr. Prins has had frequent ex-

perience conducting Spiritual Em-phasis programs similar to those at Hope. He has appeared at North-western Junior College, Annville, Insti tute in Kentucky, and Southern Normal Institute a t Brewton, Ala-bama, and he has served as in-structor and counsellor at summer mission conferences, Bible confer-ences, and inspirational services.

It's Penny Carnival Time, So Plan To Enjoy The Fun

Once again the Penny Carnival is coming to town. The date of its arrival is tomorrow evening. Feb-ruary 17, from 7:30-11:00 p.m. a t the Carnegie Gym. Almost every organization on campus is planning its own special booth this year in an effort to earn money to finance the redecoration of the women's lounge in Van Raal te Hall. The car-nival is an annual fea ture spon-sored by the WAL to earn money for some special > project.

Many of the sororities and f r a -ternities on campus have thought up new and clever shows which will fascinate all those lucky per-sons who have pennies to spare. The Sibs have planned a cocoanut-throwing contest, and the Sorosites are adding several features to their side-show. Once again the Delphi's plan to deliver Western Union telegrams on their famous t r i -cycles. The Thetas are going to provide the music on a nicolodian and the Dorians are conjuring up a f r eak show. The f ra terni t ies a re sponsoring bingo and fishing booths and as yet the remaining booths are still secrets which will be un-folded tomorrow evening.

Climaxing the evening, a novelty program will be presented at an unrevealed hour; c o n s e q u e n t l y , everyone should be sure to remain if they want to see a hilarious show. Many surprises are in store for everyone. Roy Lumsden, mas-ter-of-ceremonies, h a s r e v e a l e d that one of the features will be a quartet from Grand Haven.

The Carnival c o m m i t t e e i s headed by Dot Contant as general chairman and Jeannine De Boer as program chairman. The students

in charge of booths are Doris Adams, Delphi; Edna Pierce, Siby-line; Joan Phillips, Dorian; Bill Bocks, Fra te rs ; Martha Schoon-veld, Thesaurian; Joe Gross, Knick-erbocker; Rae Eustace, Sorosis; Phyl Luidens, YW and YMCA, and Alex Ebneth, Arcadians.

S ta r t saving those pennies and prepare for an evening of fun to-morrow night.

to do with the curricula should be the ones selected for reading.

Finally, studiously avoid all professors. Do not listen to their remarks. If class attend-ance is required, go to sleep or resort to some other means of not hearing the lectures given in these class sessions. Whenever the profes-sor asks a question, appear especially dis-racted. Professors are really not human,

and should never be considered as friends. There are many more suggestions that

would help to make failure complete, but the student who conscientiously follows these few choice bits of advice is assured of a grand failure.

Why Drink?

Formula For Failure Now that the first semester is over, it's

a good time to think about the outcome of the current one. The following advice is of-fered, therefore, as a sound program for all students that have their hearts set on flunk-ing at Hope this term. As a formula it has been tried and found to work regardless of a student's abilities or past grades. It is very important, however, that it be followed very consistently.

Failure will come most easily to the stu-dent who has the poorest learning habits. These can be easily cultivated, and even those having good habits can with a little patience rid themselves of all vestiges of good study procedure. The most important thing in college is to have a good time. Keep in mind that recreation comes before all else. This recreation can take almost any form, so long as time is taken by doing something other than class assignments. If it should ever prove impossible to keep from doing class assignments, then they should be done half-heartedly, with dreams about a possible date, or with thoughts about some other matter.

The seeker of failure should be cautioned against the use of all books. Text books are the worst reading materials. But all volumes are potential threats. If books should prove to be irresistable, then those having nothing

Since the privilege is ours to attend a Christian college, we are not faced with the drinking problem as much as students in other colleges and universities. Neverthe-less, many students seem to think that socia drinking is necessary at times for "popular-ity," or to gain the "acceptance" of the group. This is definitely a false idea!

For one thing, being well-liked depends more on social skills than social habits. Play ing tennis or the piano well, being an inter esting conversationalist and developing a pleasant attitude toward people represen social skills that arc fa r more important in developing attractive p e r s o n a l i t y than whether or not you have the social drinking habit.

Second, drinking dulls your wits instead of sharpening them, decreases your disci-pline, and impairs your physical health. The fact that athletes during their training are not allowed to drink gives ample evidence of that fact. Besides, who wants popularity based on the unreal foundation of social drinking? If a person cannot be liked for what he really is without the personality changes of alcohol, something is wrong with that person.

Men or women are not necessarily drawn to the person who always conforms, who does not have any high standards of his own which he follows. People are permanently attracted to those members of the opposite sex whom they can respect. Certainly a girl with high ideals will not be permanently at-tracted to a fellow who has lowered his ideals in order to gain "social acceptance" within his own group.

Finally, the question of drinking for pop-ularity puts the whole matter in the wrong perspective anyway. The real question in life is whether you are the kind of person God can use in His service on earth. If you are, if you really are trying to do God's will day by day, you will make plenty of lasting friendships without the loss of time, money, and self-respect involved in the endless round of social drinking which is so foolish for some and so devastating for others.

Short Cut To Ruin Perhaps it's childish to call attention to

the fact that Hope college lawns are gradu-ally being ruined by individuals cutting across them, but it is childish to have this done. It seems so silly. For the sake of saving only a few steps, persons have made a good start at mutilating the lawns. When snow is on the ground, this fact is clearly evident. Really, the only things gained by the practice are muddy feet and a ragged lawn. As individuals it's our part to keep off the grass in this season when damage is so easily done. Our self-control will pay divi-dends in the Spring, when the beauty of a green lawn can be fully appreciated.

Columbia Hall Holland, Michigan February 9, 1950

Office of The Anchor Hope College Holland, Michigan Dear Edi to r :

The Wes tmins te r Shor ter Cate-chism very ably summarizes the Scriptural t e a c h i n g concerning Sabbath day observance. To the question, "How is the Sabbath to be sanct i f ied?" , t h e a n s w e r is given, "The Sabbath is to be sanc-tified by a holy res t ing all t h a t day, even f rom such worldly employ-ments and recreat ions as a re law-ful on o ther days ; and spending the whole t ime in the public and priv-a te exercises of God's worship, ex-cept so much a s is to be taken up in the works of necessity and mercy." To the question, " W h a t is forbidden in the four th Command-m e n t ? " , the answer is given, "The four th Commandment forbiddeth the omission, or careless pe r fo rm-ance, of the duties required, and the p rofan ing the day by idleness, or doing t h a t which is in itself sinful or by unnecessary thoughts , words, or works about our worldly employments or recreat ions." I t is evident f r o m the foregoing tha t the Sabbath day is set aside exclusive-ly fo r the worship of God. There-fore, the only work which is law-fu l on t h a t day is work which pro-motes the worship of God or in-volves d e e d s of necessity am mercy.

The question whether it is r igh or wrong to s tudy on Sunday of ten arises. In answer ing this question one mus t bear in mind t h a t the purpose of all ou r s tudy is to glori-f y God; bu t th is does not mean tha when we study, we are worshipping Him, f o r worship is only one way of g lor i fy ing God. Studying in pre parat ion fo r a class, in almos every case, spr ings f rom the motive of fulf i l l ing ou r daily tasks anc not f r o m the motive of worship. I is sa fe to say, therefore , t h a t when one's motive in s tudying on the Sabbath day is to prepare f o r his weekly labors and not to worship God, he is gui l ty of violat ing the four th Commandment . A s s i g n ments or examinat ions of any kind give no one permission to disobey God; so when one does desecrate the Sabbath, he has no one to blame but h imself ; the f a u l t lies entirely within.

I do believe, however, t h a t i t is most inconsiderate f o r facu l ty members to ass ign examinat ions f o r Monday. Al though they are no forc ing anyone to sin, they a r e making the conscientious s tuden suffer unnecessari ly and are fo re ing him to sacrifice a good grade because he is conscientious. J u s because he will not s tudy on Sun day, he loses t he opportuni ty to prepare himself adequately. The s tudent whose conscience is tender to t h e law of God should be given every oppor tun i ty to do his bes I t is a t th is point t h a t I would like

in t e r m s of the geological t ime

scale. T h a t the h u m a n race has much in common should be under-stood not only in t e r m s of previous cul tures , but we m u s t realize tha t " the Chris t , Moses, J u d a s Ischariot and we, brea the t he same argon and t h a t the cor ten of dinosaurs was made of t he same chemicals a s our own. We m u s t appreciate t h a t wi th animals , p lan ts and the inorganic world, we are all dust. To differ we mus t cul t ivate the th ings t h a t a re dist inct ly human. Dr. E. C. S t a k m a n of the Univer-sity of Minnesota, who presided, spoke briefly on Science and Un-ders tanding and the necessity of extending the ful l value of science to s tudents . Science, he said, is do-ing one's best wi th one's brain. The s tudy of science is one of the g rea t e s t adventures of the human mind. Science may be a recreation.

Science is a l anguage .

"Dr . H. R. Wolfe of the Univer-

sity of Wisconsin pointed out tha t the dange r of the humani t ies is in root ing us in the pas t , while scien-tific discovery demands t h a t we adapt to an ever chang ing environ-ment . 'Wha t is dist inct ly human is a humani ty . ' Science as well as the older humani t ies involves people and inst i tut ions, h u m a n society of today, a his tory, a l i t e ra ture in which there a r e classics, a disci-pline of th inking, what God has

wrought th rough these revelations.

"Our job as t eachers is t rans la t -

ing science into l anguage which the

college s tudent can unders tand."

to challenge the s ta tement o f ten used which asse r t s t h a t if a s tu-dent is conscientious throughout the year , he will hardly have to study f o r examinat ions ; and thus if he has an examinat ion on Mon-day, he is not even tempted to s tudy on Sunday. Such a s t a t emen t is not t rue , f o r no m a t t e r how much a s tudent s tudies th roughout the year , he a lways likes to s tudy thoroughly the n igh t before an ex-aminat ion, general ly speaking. 1 have known cases (including my own) in which s tudents have had two final examinat ions on Monday, and I a lways wonder how a s tu-dent in such a predicament was able to do his bes t work and still obey the command of God. I would like to u r g e the facul ty members and anyone else responsible to dis-continue this inconsiderate prac-tice.

Counclj On the evening of Wednesday,

February 8, the Council and sev-eral of the chairmen of the activi-ties put on by the Council during the semester, were guests at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Lubbers. The occasion was marked by a most de-licious dinner and pleasant, inter-est ing conversation. The Council gave the dinner as an expression of thanks to the people who have so ably carried out the work of some of the projects of the Council dur-ing the first semester. Mrs. Lub-bers consented to be hostess for the affair , and Kamela Korteling ar-ranged all mat ters of detail for the Council.

On such an occasion, one cannot help reminiscing on some of the projects of the Council throughout the first semester. The Council put on its usual programs such as the Freshman Orientation and Mixer, the All College Mixer, Homecom-ing, Nykirk Cup, and to come r ight up to date, the annual Dutch Treat Week.

The Council, this year, has also a t tempted to step out into some new areas of activity. I t has es-tablished a new Constitution which has improved the quality of the Council in many ways. It inaugu-rated a Kangaroo Court to handle unruly Frosh during the wearing of the green. It has set up suggestion boxes as a means for student opin-ion to reach the Council quickly and efficiently. It has also pro-vided student recrcation a f t e r all basketball and football games.

The Council has also at tempted to come to grips with several prob-lems concerning the entire student body. For the past month, the Council has been working on the Chapel question. The results of the Council's decision has reached you this week. The Council has also begun work on what "perhaps is its most important problem this year and one that will be of lasting value and interest to the student body. It has begun to set up Stu-dent-Faculty Committees in every area of campus life. The first of these new committees is the Din-ing Hall Committee. It held its initial meeting last week. If these committees can be set up to work efficiently, the student body will have an excellent means of making their desires known to the commit-tee that is functioning in that par-ticular area.

ligious Emphasis Week is to Help You", has been devised, with these phases receiving special s t ress :

This is Dutch Treat Week! The annual observance of "girl dates boy" at Hope College was begun last Monday and the activities will continue through this coming Sun-day evening. Plans for the event have been arranged by Eleanor Short, general chairman; Marilyn Failor, all-college par ty chairman; and Mary H o u t m a n , publicity chairman.

Highlighting the remaining ac-tivities of the week will be the Penny C a r n i v a l , sponsored by WAL, tomorrow night and the all-college par ty scheduled to take place Saturday night. The Penny Carnival will take place in Car-negie Gym, and the all-college par-ty will be held at the Women's Literary Club. Participating in the enter ta inment highlights of the par ty will be Ed Kerle, with his "washtub bass" and the Cosmo "Ensemble"; Fred Yonkman will act as Master of Ceremonies for the event.

Monday evening, girls and their dates attended the organ recital of Carl Weinrich and on Tuesday the joint YM-YW meeting was the date

destination. Yesterday in the Van Raalte Common Room, a new in-novation for Dutch Trea t Week was introduced; it was called "The Boy Bank". A number of eligible males submitted their name to "Bank President" Mary Houtman, and during the noon hour twenty lucky girls won dates with these men. Bill Hinga and Bud Vande Wege acted as Dutch "tel lers" during transactions for the eligi-bles. The eligible bachelors were Ron Bos, Paul Bu4jkhout, Bob Den-nison, Gordon De Pree, Norm De Wolfe, Bob De Young, Don Lub-bers, Roy Lumsden, Don Miller, Paul Muyskens, Duane Peekstok, Bill Putnam, Norm Thompson, Jack Vander Velde, Dutch Van Ingen, Bob Visscher, Warren Westerhoff, Chuck Wissink, Nick Yonker and Fred Yonkman. Each couple was given a certificate for refreshments at one of the following stores: Wade's Drug Store, Cumerford's, the Model Drug, the Vogue, Han-sen's, the City Kitchen, the Snack Shack, Mills-Peterman Ice Cream Company, the Koffee Kletz, the Dutch Mill or the Tulip.

Camera Club To Display Photos In Koffee Kletz

The Hope College Camera Club will sponsor a display in the Kof-fee Kletz of the photos taken last year by the Chicago Tribune for use in the fea ture "Youth on the Campus." The pictures are tenta-tively s c h e d u l e d t o be shown on March 6. The photo club decided at the last meeting, held on Jan-uary 18, to undertake the project. At tha t meeting plans were also begun for a field t r ip; this will con-sist of going out to take pictures of whatever appears to be photo-genic.

M. Van Home Tells About Caravaning

Last w e e k M i s s M a r i a n V a n Home, who is director of Caravan-ing in the Reformed Church, vis-ited the Hope campus in order to inform students about the caravan-ing project recently u n d e r t a k e n . Miss V a n H o m e a d d r e s s e d t h e YWCA on Tuesday evening, Febru-ary 7. She explained that the cara-vaners are young people between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five who volunteer five weeks of their summer to serve Christ and His Church. The first nine days are spent in intensive training at Mus-kingum College, New Concord, Ohio, and the remaining four weeks of s e r v i c e a r e s p e n t a m o n g t h e c h u r c h e s of t h e R e f o r m e d a n d United Presbyterian denominations. The young people are divided into teams of four to provide a well-balanced group to lead the church they are visiting in a well-planned series of activities worked out in cooperation with the minister, con-sistory, and other leaders of the church. The students who do this do not get paid for their five weeks of time, but they do have the satis-faction of c r e a t i v e l y aiding the church program.

As a result of Miss Van Home's address to t h e w o m e n a t t h e Y meeting and her several day's stay, some Hopeites have definitely de-cidede to caravan and others are still c o n s i d e r i n g t h e idea. Any other interested students may ask Mrs. Kronemeyer for a p p l i c a t i o n blanks which Miss Van Home has given her.

At a meeting last Monday, the group made final ar rangements for I n t e r n a t i o n a l Night, to be held March 3 in the Temple Building.

Two Publications Spottight Hope

Information about Hope College has been i n c l u d e d in two recent publications. The February issue of Good Housekeeping c o n t a i n s some fac ts about Hope College re-garding c o s t , e n r o l l m e n t , and Dutch Trea t Week in its annual report e n t i t l e d "Small College", prepared under the supervision of James W. Hampton.

The purpose of the article is to show tha t it is possible to obtain a thorough education in a first ra te college a t a moderate expenditure. The colleges included in the article were selected according to the fol-lowing cri teria: each enjoys a high academic standing and was on the final accreditation list of the Asso-ciation of American Universities when tha t agent was discontinued over a year ago; each has a normal enrollment of less than 2000; each is in the $1000 range, including board, room, and tuition.

The Grand R a p i d s H e r a l d on January 22 devoted a page to Hope C o l l e g e entitled "Hope President Urges 'Screening '" . T h e r e w e r e pictures of P r e s i d e n t Lubbers, various faculty members and stu-dents. Included were facts about Dr. Lubbers and Hope College. Dr. Lubbers maintains that there are too many students in college who should not be there, and claims that "From the c o l l e g e ' s stand-point, students who have no inter-est in a four-year college course and are intensely i n t e r e s t e d in some t rade are wast ing the time our teachers ought to be giving to some deserving student who could be made a valuable part of society with the help of a well-grounded college education."

^<*&!&SSS8SSSS8SS8SSSS& Hi! Haven't seen you for awhile,

have we?. Well, here we go again on another issue of the ol' Music Box. Plenty has happened since we rolled around for our last issue on the sharp and flat front.

Frances Rose gave a very en-joyable recital; she has become one of our finest musicians. There were quite a few present to. take ad-vantage of her excellent playing. Congratulations, Fran!

It 's winter now outside, but don't let that fool you. In just a little while it'll be spring, and that means that those Glee Clubs of ours will have concerts coming up. Members of the Women's Glee Club are memorizing like mad lit-tle fiends, whipping up one of their usual superb concert programs. This year they're really looking forward to their trip, because they are going to get a peek at those West Point men and naturally they want to be at their best. The East is really get t ing a break, too. They're going to see the gir |s in their new formats. No more fish-tails to wrinkle.

The Men's Glee Club is busy re-hearsing for the.ir trip which will be taken in early May. They will travel to the Chicago and Wiscon-sin areas. There are several con-certs scheduled to be presented in Zeeland, Grand Rapids, and other local areas. These concerts will take place at the end of this month and in early March.

D u r i n g R e l i g i o u s Emphasis Week, the Women's Glee Club, the Chapel Choir, and the Men's Glee Club will sing on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday respectively.

News f rom the Choir f ront! They're going to give the "El i jah" — well, a portion of it, anyway — at chapel Friday morning. So roll yourselves out of bed tomorrow morning and make sure you get to chapel. The "Elijah", as you might know, is an entirely differ-ent oratorio than the "Messiah". It 's much more difficult than the Messiah and fuller in volume. But don't worry about it. Our choir is capable, — a n d t h e n some — of more than the "Elijah". There are solo parts, too, and they're going to be done by two of our best sing-ers. Bob Kranendonk is going to sing the part of Elijah and "Zeb" Hermance will sing Ahab's part . Don't miss this program!

Heard an organ concert Monday, too, which was a really wonderful treat . Mr. Weinrich is one of the world's finest organists.

As for the rest of the musical campus, it 's " t i n k l i n g " along. That 's all the "notes" for now.

Twenty-two Seniors Are Given Degrees

Twenty-two s t u d e n t s received their degrees at the mid-year com-mencement exercises held on Feb-ruary 7 a t t h e c o l l e g e c h a p e l . Following the invocation by Rev. John R. Mulder and a selection by the Chapel Choir, Rev. Joseph R. Sizoo, President of the New Bruns-wick Theological Seminary, deliv-ered the a d d r e s s e n t i t l e d "The Modern Dilemma." In it Dr. Sizoo stated that there are two main con-flicting philosophies in t h e w o r l d today. On one hand there are those people who s e e k o n l y t h e i r own gain, putting t h e m s e l v e s before their duty toward God and man-kind. The other group is made up of those who put God before them-selves and e v e r y t h i n g else. The address presented a c h a l l e n g e to the members of the g r a d u a t i n g class and to all those present.

YM, YW to Hold Joint Meeting

YMCA and YWCA will hold a joint meeting next Tuesday with Dr. Jacob Prins as speaker. The meeting will be informal with a discussion period following the talk.

Last Tuesday a joint YM and YW group had Miss Ruth Ransom, secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions, as their speaker. Miss Ransom had recently returned from a tour of the various foreign mis-sion stations of t h e R e f o r m e d Church and gave an interesting picture of mission work in other lands.

Hawkinson To Speak To Faculty Dames

On Thursday 'evening, February 16, a meeting of the Faculty Dames will be held at Beach cottage. Dr. Ella Hawkinson will speak on the topic "How UNESCO works on the local scene." She plans to stress the need for democracy and under-standing a n d t h e f a c t t h a t t h i s understanding begins right on the local front , in each person's own mind. The program is concerned with the position of women in work for better human relations.

Van't Hof Reveals Milestone Progress

Milestone Editor Bill Van't Hof announced recently that the first section of the yearbook has been returned f rom the printers for proof reading. This first section deals with the Administration, Dedication, the President, and the campus buildings. This year's Mile-stone will emphasize the buildings of the college and campus scenes. Informal pictures of the adminis-tration and faculty should be of especial interest.

Sororities and fraternit ies are asked to submit immediately, to

Ellie Short, their articles and five

pictures which they want printed.

All senior and underclass pic-

tures are ready to be sent to the

printers. Club pictures will be

taken within the next two weeks;

club presidents will be notified of

the time and place.

"Ah! A clean slate. This semes-ter isn't going to find me so snowed under when it draws to a close like the last one did. I'm going to stay right on top and get those assign-ments done in advance." I wonder how many of us made that state-ment a few days ago. We all know such a miracle couldn't happen, but all you English and history majors don't have to worry. When Spring rolls around you can go out to the beach or lay out on the lawn to do your outside reading, etc. But just think of the poor guys in the chem. lab sweating over their Bunsen burners, running four or five ex-periments at once, in hopes that they might finish at least a day or two early. Well, at least we have one consolation this semester. The odors coming from the organic lab will be a little more f r ag ran t than they were last semester.

By the way, I wonder if there could be an ulterior motive behind the doings of the Knickerbocker chem majors. Read the write-up of

Knick formal party this week-end

and take note of the Honored

Guests.

If you see a few people walking

a r o u n d campus swinging their

heads back and forth, don't worry

about them; they're students of

Quantitative Anaysis who are just

learning how to operate the scales in the weighing room. In closing,

just a word to these quant stu-

dents. If at first you don't succeed

(by the gravimetric method), dry,

dry again.

P&M Play Is Not In Moth-balls Yet

"The Emperor 's New Clothes" was not packed away in moth-balls as is usually the case when a col-lege play, is finished. Palet te and Masque has accepted the invitation of the Holland Branch of the A.-A.U.W. to present matinee and evening performances of the three-act fan tasy on March 6 in the Hol-land High School auditorium. The matinee is designed for the Public School students. The evening per-formance is open to the public.

This is the first time a major production has been taken out of the Little Theater for fu r ther per-formances. The show was planned with this in mind and the sets are constructed so tha t they are port-

able.

^nrarttips SOROSIS

On Jan . 27, "The Night of Knights ," Sorosites -enter ta ined their guests in the Continental Room of the Pantl ind Hotel a t a formal dinner par ty . To carry out the theme of the age of chivalry, the tables were decorated with golden castles bearing Sorosite banners. C o l o r f u l banners also marked the places for the knights and ladies. ,

Mary Vander Ley welcomed the gues t s and Evie Van Dam offered prayer . The af ter-dinner program included selections by " the Ladies of the N igh t " — Gwen Kooiker, Doris H a r r i n g s m a , J o a n Ten Hoeve, Prudence Haskin, Ruth Mennenga, and Eunice Mayo. "The Dance of the P a g e " was done by Marion Eas tman. "The Guest fo r a Ribband" was attractively told by Jayne Baker, Joyce Baker, Ar-lene Beekman, Rae Eustase, Eunice Mayo, Pa tsy Pas, Dorothy Ten Brink, and Cathy Wines. In con-clusion, Dorothy Ten Brink sang "Night and Day."

Co-chairmen for the event were Connie Shilling and Jeanne Ver Beek. Other chairmen were Mary Houtman and Gwen Kooiker, pro-g r a m ; Lois England, invitations; Marion Reikse, chaperones; Marion Reichert, d e c o r a t i o n s . Faculty gues ts were Dr. and Mrs. J . Har-vey Kleinheksel and Mr. and Mrs. Rein Visscher.

On Jan . 20, the Sorosites' meet-ing honored red flannels and Cedar Springs, the small town which they made famous. Rae Eustace was chairman for the evening. Elaine Van Tuinen told the story of the red flannel publicity stunt and how it grew into national importance. Arlene Beekman read an amusing diary of one part icular pair of red flannels. Dot Ten Brink and Gwen Kooiker sang "Baby, I t 's Cold Out-side". Ruth Mennenga was critic.

DORIAN Cupid must have used his dar t s

to tickle the ribs of the Dorians at their meeting held on Feb. 10, and the result was anything but un-pleasant. Barbara Woods led devo-tions, followed by Julia Bernius who presented the facts behind St. Valentine's day. Instead of the regular humor paper, each Dorian read a poem of her own composi-tion describing the man of her dreams. The purpose of a l i terary society is to bring out the talents of its members, and each Dorian proved her worth. When peace was finally restored, the mighty critics Bea Vander Ploeg and Phyllis Leach gave their report which re-sulted in all the poetic efforts be-ing voted into the archives, be-cause it was impossible to choose the best one.

P. J . Sherman then took over the festivities and presented the favori te "One Kiss" as her vocal selection. And to soothe the ach-ing sides caused by all the laugh-ter, ice cream and cookies were served by the program committee. A short sing practice followed.

Great plans have been made for the Dorian booth at the Penny Carnival. Something new and dif-ferent is in store for its patrons,

oan Phillips is general chairman, )ut all Dorians are looking forward

to making the event a great suc-cess.

DELPHI

Firs t semester — Final Report — Delphians all got A's! At least, t ha t ' s what was predicted at the Delphi meeting jus t before exams. Delphian De Neut opened the pro-gram with A-tonement, and the A-ducational paper by Delphian Hoff-man made us all resolve to be hon-est while wri t ing those exams. The A-r ias sung by Delphians Bruins, Dunster, Slotsema, Herder, North-cott, and Zweizig explained the problems of a "studious" Hope co-ed dur ing those f r igh t fu l days. We think the idea of "Let ' s go to the Kletz" was the best! The A-musement for the evening was Delphian Olert 's paper and the critical A-nalysis fo r the evening was given by Delphian Eilander. The meeting was closed with A-lle-giance to Delta Phi. We say fare-well to two sophomore girls who are leaving us, Carol Northcott and Phyllis Hall.

' Plans were discussed for the Delphi Dispatch System at the Penny Carnival and the song for the All-College Sing a t the Febru-a ry tenth meeting. Cupid was the host fo r the program and Delphian Van Lare shot the first arrow en-titled "Love". The next arrow, called "Valentines", was aimed by Delphian A. Siderius a t the origin of this amorous day of days. Del-phian V e l t m a n ' s a r r o w called "Swee thear t s " burs t into the heart of t ha t song. Poor Cupid took a beat ing as Delphians Adams and Droppers aimed their arrow direct-ly a t him. Tha t ar row hit funny-bones with its tricky beat and un-solved problem. In fac t they pullec so hard they nearly — "broke the bow". The critic was Delphian Rivenburgh who shot the last f a t a arrow. The meeting was closed by singing about one of many loves

— Delta Phi.

T H E S A U R I A N

"On Wings of Song" was the

theme of the Thesaurian meeting on Monday, Feb. 5. Mar tha Schoon-veld was in charge of this musica meeting which was held a t the home of Mrs. John Smith. The The tas were led in their devotions by Eleanor Robinson, a f t e r which Leona Doorenbos gave the serious paper which was a survey of musi-cal ins t ruments and composers since early times. Jennie Smit gave an unusual humor paper using song ti t les to form catchy sayings Cynthia Fiske sang "Without Song", and Hilda Baker concluded the program with the critic's view point of the evening's proceedings.

Following the meeting a fa re -well par ty was held fo r our gradu-a t ing senior, Leona Doorenbos. De-licious re f reshments were served by Mar tha Felton and Louise Lola.

ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA

Valentine's Day was the theme of the ASA meeting of Feb. 10. ^athy Kempers read a very appro-

priate poem e n t i t l e d "Country Wedding". J ane Noxan and Cathy Crist led devotions, and they were assisted by Phyl Van Set ters and Jackie Medendorp, who favored us with a beautiful vocal. A report given by the sing chairman, Lois Opt' Holt, brought a very enjoy-able evening to a close.

Devotions, led by Pa t Stagg, opened the meeting of January 28. Enter ta inment was very well taken care of by Harr ie t Pennington, who sang "Without a Song." The spring formal party again became the main topic of the evening as separate committees were organ-ized and committee heads were chosen.

On Friday, Jan . 20, Alpha Sigma Alpha members called a temporary halt to pre-exam cramming and met a t West Hall. Marge Pickens read a humor paper, and Pa t Mor-an read a serious paper on the subject of mercy killings. Devo-tions were led by Phyl Van Set-ters and were followed by a dis-cussion on the approaching spring formal par ty . Connie Van Zylen was appointed par ty chairman and April 28 was set as a tentative date.

FRATER-SOROSIS

Sorosites entertained their Fra-ter brothers on Feb. 10 at a hearty Valentine meeting. Dot Contant opened the meeting by reading Scripture, and Evie Van Dam of-fered prayer. Mary Vander Ley, Sorosite president, welcomed the F ra te r s and President Bob Koop of the F ra t e r s responded. Af t e r the roll call, Mary Houtman gave an excellent paper on the origin and customs of Valentine's Day. Joan Ten Hoeve sang "Don't Go Too Far , Girls". F ra t e r Roy Lumsden, "the Happy Hear t" , spoke inform-ally on things cloSfe to his heart , wise and otherwise. Af t e r the meet-ing a Valentine lunch was served, Ruth Vander Ploeg in charge.

There aren ' t many days left fo r the fems to call a number and take advantage of this wonderful one-and-only week of its kind on Hope's Campus. You certainly have noticed how sharp the male population has looked lately. Let "Do it today" be your motto.

The Date Bank has really been a great success and our handsome swains will never live it down. Paul Buckhout has been presented with a special certificate entitled, "The One of the famous twenty."

Who is the Junior girl who is about ready to rip "Rip" Collins because Rip's Sophomore admirers had him dated for the entire week. Story has it tha t Rip really has a way with "those sweet nothings".

The line forms on the r ight , girls! On the right for Alex Eb-neth. Only three days left to sign up for a 20-minute date with Alex. See the Bulletin Board on the second floor of Voorhees.

Vander Borgh Reviews

Prospects In Teaching Prof . G a r r e t t V a n d e r B o r g h

of the E d u c a t i o n D e p a r t m e n t announced recently tha t the high school teaching field in Michigan is overcrowded and advised that pros-pective teachers should bear this in mind. Prof. Vander Borgh called attention to the following facts , included here in an excerpt of News of the Week, official publication of the Michigan Department of Public Instruction.

"The shortage of e l e m e n t a r y teachers in Michigan, particularly in the rural schools, is being eased by the return of qualified teachers o the professsion, by qualifying

holders of s p e c i a l certificates for limited certificates, a n d by o t h e r means.

" I t is estimated tha t Michigan will have nearly two qualified high school teachers for every available high school opening. If some of these teachers are employed in up-per elementary grade positions for which regularly certificated teach-ers cannot be o b t a i n e d , some of this lag can be overcome."

COSMO-FRATER

True brotherly fr iendship was again renewed Friday evening Jan . 20, when the Cosmos and Fra-ters had their annual joint session in the Fra te r room.

Fra te r Wissink opened the meet-ing with prayer. Words of welcome were offered by F ra t e r president Bob Koop. Cosmo president Max Frego acknowledged the welcome with the hope for continued fr iend-ly relations.

Fra te r Zwemer's a rms waved wildly in the smoke-filled room as he led the group in singing such songs as " S h a n t y T o w n " . By special request. Cosmos Bill McKay and Chuck Mulder sang a duet. They made "Red River Valley" sound a little green.

Cosmos Lloyd Ter Borg pres-ented the serious paper entitled "Hypnotism as a Science". F ra t e r "Bigger" Koop rendered the humor for the evening with his usual sub-tle jokes. He called his paper "Dig It up Again". F r a t e r Yogi De Voogd proved masterful ly critical. The meeting was adjourned and all retired for the evening.

Mich igan Co l l ege

Costs C l i m b

H igher and H igher Education is going higher and

higher in cost in Michigan colleges. Tuition is up. So are room and

board. So are all the other inci-dentals of college life. Inflation is blamed.

A Michigan resident, for exam-ple, spends $760 a year at the Uni-versity of Michigan for tuition, fees, board, and room. The Mich-igan State College catalog lists the same items as $682. Smaller tax-supported c o l l e g e s h a v e slightly lower figures. At most private col-leges they are $800 or more a year.

There are numerous other items, too, such as laundry, books, sup-plies, clothes, entertainment, travel, cultural expenses, f ra te rn i ty or so-rority fees and extra meals. The la t ter is no trivial consideration.

CAGERS GRAB TIE FOR SECOND Carroll Is New Hope Grid Foe

Will Replace Monmouth On 1950 Schedule

As f a r as scheduling is concerned, plans fo r Hope's 1950 football sea-son have been completed. The Hol-landers will face approximately the same elevens as dur ing the 1949 season when they racked up seven wins aga ins t one loss — and f in-ished second in the MIAA.

The only c h a n g e in opponents f rom the 1949 schedule is the inser-tion of Carroll College of Wauk-esha, Wis., in place of Monmouth College (111.), a Hope foe fo r the past two seasons. During the brief period of athletic relations with Monmouth, the Hopeites won both games, in 1948 by a 13-7 count and last yea r by a 7-0 margin.

Outs tand ing Defense

Carroll i s a n o t h e r well-known small Midwestern college, and last season its grid squad turned in six v i c t o r i e s while losing twice. In 1949 they were the only Wisconsin college listed in the final football s ta t is t ics of the National Collegi-ate Athlet ic Bureau. Among small colleges in the nation, they placed 15th in total defense, 11th in pass d e f e n s e , a n d 2 4 t h in r u s h i n g defense.

Carrol l ' s best defensive game of the '49 season was agains t Carle-ton of the rough Midwest Confer-ence. In this contest , the Pioneers held the i r opponents to a rush ing total of nine yards to earn a 7-0 victory.

T h e c o m p l e t e schedule, as re-leased by Coach Al Vanderbush, fol lows: Sept. 22 Mich. Normal (16-6) H, N Sept. 30 Carroll A, N Oct. 7 Kalamazoo (35-13)....A, N Oct. 13 Alma (20-0) H, N Oct. 21 G. R. JC (34-0) H Oct. 28 Adrian (27-14) HH Nov. 4 Hillsdale (9-13) A Nov. 11 Albion (21-6) H

Lose To Hornets, Albion; Knock Off Adrian, 78 - 44

With a smash ing 78-44 victory

over Adrian in the first game of

the second round of MIAA com-

petition, Hope moved back into a

second-place tie with Alma in

league s tandings, and this week travels to Alma on Tuesday and Hillsdale on Sa tu rday fo r another pair of loop contests .

Most impressive of the Flying Dutchmen's recent games were the t w o victories a g a i n s t C e n t r a l Michigan. At Mt. Pleasant , Hope turned in a 63-60 win, handing the Chips their first de fea t on their own court in 28 games . The follow-ing week Central visited Holland and absorbed another loss with the Hollanders on the long end of a 56-34 count. Par f i t t of Central was high in the first t i l t with 26, while VandeWege scored 21 f o r Hope. At Holland, VandeWege took high point honors with 17, followed by Muyskens with 16.

Calvin Wins

Calvin College k n o t c h e d i t s second consecutive victory over the Hopeites a t Grand Rapids Burton gym, taking a 25-23 ha l f t ime lead

and going on to win, 64 to 51. The

Knights, with only one loss on

their record to date, were paced by

Rosendahl with 23 points. Jacob-

son led Hope with 14, while Yonker

collected 13.

In recent M I A A competit ion,

Kalamazoo defeated Hope, 53 to

51, a t the a rmory ; Albion dropped

the Hollanders, 59 to 56, a t Al-bion; and Adrian fel l before the Hope quint, 78 to 44, a t Holland.

In losing to Kalamazoo by a two-point margin, Hope made only 9 of 18 a t tempted f r e e throws. Kal-amazoo, on the o ther hand, col-lected 13 of 19 a tempted char i ty tosses. Wal ters of Kalamazoo was high with 20 points. Muyskens paced Hope with 12.

A second-half rally provided Al-bion with i ts win over the Hopeites, a f t e r the Hollanders led, 31 to 26, a t the half . Sigren of Albion scored 17 points, with Jacobson connecting fo r 15 Hope markers .

Fifty-Six Fouls Hope led all the way aga ins t

Adrian, a squad which has as yet to win a league game . The Flying Dutch led, 31 to 20, a t the inter-mission. All eleven men on the Hope vars i ty counted in the scor-ing of th is game which was fea-tured by the calling of 56 fouls with five men leaving the game via the foul route. Arbaugh of Adrian took high point honors with 18. VandeWege scored 13 for Hope.

By sweeping their last th ree games, the Arcadians have moved f rom third place to a tie f o r first in the I n t e r f r a t " A " league, and from all indications should go on to win the m a j o r loop crown. The Independents, current ly tied with the Arkies, lost their power-punch at the end of the first round of play as J u n Bremer advanced to the college vars i ty and Clair De-Mull g radua ted .

The usually s t rong F ra t e r s , on the other hand, have lost the i r last three contests and as a resul t dropped f rom a first place tie into a tie fo r the league's third slot. The Emersonian quint is another outfit which was victorious in its last three s t a r t s , enabling it to move f rom last place into a dead-lock fo r third.

Following are the scores in re-cent " A " league competit ion: Em-miea 39, Knicks 26; Arkies 34, Cosmos 25; Indies 38, F r a t e r s 36 (over t ime) ; Arkies 37, F r a t e r s 23; Indies 46, Knicks 30; Emmies 49, Cosmos 20; Arkies 45, Indies 29; Emmies 29, F r a t e r s 27; and Cosmos 32, Knicks 26.

Bremer Averages 19

Jun Bremer piled up enough points during his five games of

play before promotion to the var-sity to continue leading the " A " loop point parade with a total of 95. Bremer 's average in the F r a t league is an impressive 19 points per game.

In the " B " league, the F r a t e r s have maintained the i r first place ra t ing , while the Arcadians , pre-viously tied for t he number-one spot, have slipped to third with losses in their last two t i l ts . The Cosmopolitans have advanced f rom thi rd to second, but the remainder of the teams re ta in t he same posi-tion a t the end of the first round of play as they held a t the com-pletion of the first th ree n ights of action.

Recent F r a t "B" loop scores a re : Emmies 41, Knicks 23; Cosmos 38, Arkies 25; F ra t e r s 57, Seminary 18; F ra t e r s 59, Arkies 34; Knicks 30, Seminary 23; and Cosmos 40,

Emmies 27.

Bob Becksfort , Cosmo scoring ace with 62 points, has replaced Ron Bos of the F r a t e r s as " B " league scoring leader. Bos, with 47 points, has slipped to four th , while another pair of F r a t e rna l s , Dick Nieusma and Del Koop, hold down second and third wi th 57 and 53 tallies, respectively.

With the 1949-50 basketball campaign rapidly near ing its conclusion, we'd like to pause fo r a few moments to pass a long a few fac t s con-cerning the his tory of the spor t in the MIAA. Our source of informat ion this t ime is the league 's basketball brochure, f r om which we have gleaned the following "Milestones in MIAA Basketbal l His tory" :

1898 — Basketball made its first appearance in MIAA colleges al-though it was not regarded a s an official spor t unti l later.

1911 — Basketball was recognized a s an official MIAA sport fo r the

first t ime in this season.

1923 — Kalamazoo College set a world's record fo r consecutive con-ference basketball championships by winning the MIAA banner fo r

the tenth t ime in as many years . 1933 — The MIAA adopted the use of cert if icates as recognition and

identification of all-conference football and basketball players. 1938 — Kalamazoo College won ti t les in basketbal l , t rack, tennis and

golf to add to the 1937 football championship f o r a "g rand s l am" in the five spor ts recognized by the MIAA in association competit ion.

1940 — Keith Carey of Alma established the record fo r the most points scored by an individual player in a s ingle game. On Feb. 20, 1940, he scored 19 field goals and 8 f ree throws f o r a total of 46 points aga ins t Adrian.

Hope, the youngest member of the conference, having been admitted in 1926, has since tha t date been one of the s t ronges t and most-feared members of the loop. The F ly ing Dutchmen won the basketball t i t le out r ight f o u r times, in 1936-37, 1939-40, 1942-43, 1946-47, and shared the t i t le in 1933-34. Kalamazoo is the only o ther MIAA school tha t has figured in as many as five basketball championships between 1926

and 1949. Though the Hollanders a ren ' t a lways first, they 've never finished last.

In fac t , Hope is the only MIA school tha t hasn ' t taken a cellar posi-tion since 1926. Kalamazoo, ano the r consistently rough team, ended a t the bottom of the conference only once, in 1932-33.

The to ta ls on MIAA championships, since the first one taken by Hillsdale in 1912-13, a r e as fol lows: Adr ian , one tie for first place; Albion, fou r championships; Alma, five championships and two ties for first place; Hillsdale, fou r championships and two ties fo r first place; Hope, four championships and one tie fo r first place; Kalamazoo, eleven championships and four t ies fo r first place. Olivet College won the championship in 1931-32 and Michigan Normal tied fo r the crown in 1920-21. Neither Olivet nor Michigan Normal a re now in the league.

In pos twar cage competit ion, f r om 1945 to 1949, Hope holds an edge over all but two of i ts cur ren t opponents in games won. Against Hills-dale, Hope has won seven and lost one. The Dutch defeated Alma five t imes, while dropping three games . Adrian has lost to the Hollanders five t imes, while taking only one win. Agains t Albion, Hope has won five and lost three. Calvin absorbed seven victories at the hands of the Flying Dutch while winning once. Michigan Normal has been the most consistent loser on the Hope schedule, dropping eight games in as many s t a r t s . Kalamazoo has a 4-4 record with Hope, while another Celery City squad. Western Michigan, has defea ted the Hopeites twice in two contests. Incidentally, Hope was the only team on Central Michigan's 1949-50 schedule t h a t holds an edge in wins and over the Chips. Including this season's games, Hope has won sixteen to Central ' s

five in a series tha t da tes back to 1910.
