SAC presents political film fest SAC is sponsor ing a political

film festival next weekend as part of t h e election year fes t iv i t ies . S t u d e n t s may a t t end all t h r e e movies for only $1.00. Two d i f f e r e n t movies will be shown each night.

Tickets will be given the first night and allow free admission to all three movies. All three movies will be in Winants Auditorium.

The three movies to be shown are:

MR. SMITH GOES TO WASH-INGTON J a m e s S t e w a r t , J e a n A r t h u r , Claude Rains, Edward Arnold, Guy Kibbee , Thomas Mitchell , Beulah Bondi

An old Sena to r dies and the state's political machine appoints Stewart to serve the unexpired t e r m . The naive S t e w a r t won' t bow to the crooked wishes of his superiors, and in a truly classic fillibustering sequence, he stub-bornly sticks to his guns in the face of overwhelming opposition.

He wins out over the political machine to operate efficiently as an independent. Superb dramatic entertainment with a moral punch.

ALL THE KING'S MEN*' Broder ick Crawford , J o a n n e

Dru, Mercedes McCambridge , John Ireland, John Derek.

Films about corrupt politicians aren't new by any means. This s tunn ing s tudy of a r u t h l e s s southern governor's rise to power won an academy award for best picture.

Star Crawford and supporting actor McCambr idge also won Oscars for their performances in this powerful story of a little man who rose to the top by a political machine, well oiled by graft and corruption. A film with a theme that's a part of the way we live in A mpnrfl

ADVISE AND CONSENT Henry Fonda, Charles Laugh-

ton, Walter Pidgeon, Peter Law-ford, Burgess Mered i th , Don Murray, Gene Tierney, Franchot Tone.

The political and personal struggle for power is brought into sha rp focus in th i s hones t and shocking Otto Preminger version of the best selling novel.

The story centers around the bitter conflicts set in motion when the President of the United States asks the Senate to approve his cont rovers ia l choice for a new Secretary of State.

GCP continues quietly The Celebration Mime Theatre

of South Par i s , Maine will be f e a t u r e d in concer t Tuesday , October 12 as the second event of the Holland Grea t P e r f o r m a n c e Series, beginning at 8 p.m. in the Holland Civic Center.

Celebration Mime Theatre fea-tures a style of theatre in the tradition of the mimes of ancient Greece and the i r successors including the "Commedia" street performer of the Italian Renais-sance.

The actors perform many roles, use silent mime in short sketch, the spoken word and sound in playlets full of unexpected inci-dents, high comedy, and sensitive comment.

Celebration Mime Theatre has attracted national and internation-al publicity including CBS Reports and a film produced and shown by the Un i t ed S t a t e s In format ion Service in 117 foreign countries.

Under the artistic direction of Tony Montanaro, grants from the Maine State Commission on the Arts and Humanities and from the National Endowment for the Arts have enabled the Mime Theatre to develop new r e p e r t o i r e , most recently "The Lost Soul" from the Saki story, and "The Devil and Daniel Webster" from the work of Stephen Vincent Benet.

Tony Montanaro, an internation-ally renowned mime, has perform-ed as soloist t ou r ing in many regions of the U.S. and Canada for 15 years.

Montanaro appea red on net-work television, and in the film

"Art is..." made by the Sears-Roe-buck Foundation for the Associat-ed Councils of the Arts, and in three short feature films entitled "The Mime", " I l lus ions" , and "Sketches".

In 1972 Montanaro established a combined residence and theatre center and teaches techniques of c rea t ive mime and t h e a t r e to profess ionals and advanced students of the performing arts who come to the Center for limited periods.

Single admission tickets cost $4, but will be sold only if seats are available fifteen minutes before the performance.

House plant propogation to be

discussed Dr. Paul Van Fassen, associate

professor of biology, at Hope will discuss the principles and techni-ques of vegetative propagation of housep lan t s in a six session discussion workshop. Participants will use var ious me thods to p r o p a g a t e a v a r i e t y of house-plants . Soils, soil t e s t i n g and fertilizers will also be discussed.

THE WORKSHOP will be held Tuesday evenings from 7 to 9 p.m. beginning Oct. 12 through Nov. 16 in room 153 of the Peale Science Center. The fee is $20 per person.

PERSONS interested in regis-t e r ing should contac t the Hope College Registrar in Van Raalte Hall prior to the first class session.

How this affects the political and personal ambit ion of those in-volved is the main theme of the film. Fascinating performances by a power house cast.

The schedule for showing these movies will be:

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14: 7:00 p.m. -Mr. Smith Goes to Washington; 9:30 p.m. -All the King's Men.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15: 7:00 p.m. -Advise and Consent; 9:30 p.m.- Mr. Smith Goes to Washing-ton.

SATURDAY OCTOBER 16: 7:00 p.m. -All the King's Men; 9:30 p.m. -Advise and Consent.

[First in a series of two articles]

All quotes and information for this article came from the "Al-manac of American Politics" 1976

S e n a t o r Rober t Packwood of Oregon has finally been confirmed as a gues t speake r in Hope 's D imnen t Chapel on Monday, October 18 at 7:00 p.m. Admission is free, but advance tickets will be available to insure choice seats for interested students.

THIS FIRST article will briefly look at the state of Oregon and the unique character its politics has. It has been said that "Oregon these days seems to be some kind of p rogress ive commonweal th , al-most totally separated from the ills of the rest of the United States, out on the Pacific coast."

Yet this separation has enabled Oregon to take many unusual and p rog res s ive s t eps tha t make political observers stare in awe. " I t is a s t a t e which has decriminalized marijuana without any drastic repercussion, a state which has outlawed throw-away bottles and cans without hurting the glass and brewing industry."

THIS STATE has also encour-

aged tourists to visit while former governor Tom McCall pleaded,

"But for heaven's sake don't come to live here!" Oregon's progressive moves and clean air with uncrowd-ed spaces accounts for its 18% population rise in the sixties and 8% rise in the seventies.

Political f i gu res f rom Oregon have included such diverse charac-t e r s as l iberal s ena to r Wayne Morse, who was only one of two senators who voted against Lyn-don Johnson ' s Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. Senator Mark Hatfield is also representing Oregon in the Senate. Hatfield is a Republican who is well known for his deep religious convictions.

IN PRESIDENTIAL primaries, Oregon 's v o t e r s kept Nelson Rockefel ler in the race agains t Barry Goldwater and chose Eu-gene McCar thy over Rober t Kennedy (the only defeat any of the Kennedy brothers suffered in the polls).

It is with this background that Senator Bob Packwood comes to Hope. Next week's article will look more closely at Sena to r Pack-wood's personal life and record in the Senate.

No more rip-offs In a highly p roduc t ive t h r e e

hour Commi t t ee Meet ing , The Senate Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Committee reported out three landmark pieces of Consum-er Legislation.

SENATOR John Hertel (D-HW) Chairman and Chief Sponsor of one of the bills. Senate Bill 1000, said "I am very proud of t h e Commit tee m e m b e r s of both par t ies . They have worked to-gether to refine some very good legislation."

"My bill will prevent what I call T h e Labor W a r r a n t y Rip O f f " said Hertel. This happens when a company issues a warranty on the product and its parts but not on labor.

"YOU THEN END up paying a $30. labor charge for the replace-ment of a 59c part and only the part is covered by the guarantee." The Her t e l bill r e q u i r e s t ha t w a r r a n t i e s on labor and p a r t s must be effective for the same length of time.

In f u r t h e r commi t t ee act ion. Senate Bill 1185 and House Bill 6069 were also reported to the Sena te Floor . S e n a t e Bill 1185 extends the warranty period on goods by the length of time the consumer lost in having t h e

product r epa i r ed dur ing the warranty period.

AFTER LISTENING to some horror stories of cars being in the repair shop for as long as three months of a 12 month warranty period, the Commi t t ee decided that legislation was necessary.

The Committee also gave high priority for passage of House Bill 6069 during this session. This bill will require prescription drugs to be labeled to indicate the original manufacturers of the drug. Testi-mony indicated that this practice would cause a lowering of prices for consumers.

CUSTOMARILY, different drug companies cha rge radical ly dif-ferent prices for a drug that they both purchased f rom the same manufacturers. However, under this bill the pha rmac i s t could choose the lower price, knowing from the manufacturer's label that both drugs were identical.

After the Committee meeting Senator Hertel said "I thank this was one of the best committee mee t ings I have had since becoming Cha i rman . I wan t to thank the m e m b e r s for the i r bipartisan support of these cost-saving consumer protection bills."

Greek objectives probed in the chapel

in Gardener's as a source.

by Suzanne Thornton

A meeting of all Greeks look place Sunday night, October 4th, in Dimnent Chapel. The objective was to in t roduce a task force, which will investigate the goals and purposes of so ror i t i e s and f r a t e r n i t i e s , both p r e sen t and future.

Dave VanderWel , associa te dean of s t u d e n t s , opened the convocation with a p raye r and expressed his good feelings about having all the Greeks together.

The program was turned over to President VanWylen. VanWylen attributed the present existence of Greeks to tradition, which is part of Hope's definition. The President pointed out some problems with tradition using Jo book Self-Renewal Eventually, after years of repeti-tion, a thing begins to run down and purposes are lost, and we must periodically stop and look at ourselves.

VanWylen sees t h r e e major purposes of Greeks in the past. The first s t e m s from campus

Alice opens Tickets are now on sale for the

Hope College theater department production of "Alice in Wonder-land" which will be presented in the DeWitt Cultural Center Oct. 7-9 and Oct. 13-16.

"ALICE IN Wonderland" is an experimental production prepared to pique adults as well as children, according to director John Tammi. Included in the cast is artist-in-residence Tom Lillard.

Tickets for "Alice" can be obtained at the theater box office at the DeWitt Center daily (except Sunday) from 12:30 to 5:30, or by calling 392-6200. Adult sirigle admission price is $3.00 and $1.50 for children and students. Season coupons, good for all four shows, a re $10 for adu l t s and $8 for students and senior citizens.

vi tal i ty, in which s t u d e n t s gain support from peers and are able to congregate and discuss. There is also an oppo r tun i t y to develop leadership.

His final point was that we are all social beings and need to grow, develop and have involvement in a particular group. VanWylen, how-ever, expressed his concern on the negative points of the sororities and fraternities. He feels that the Greeks a re too of ten nar rowly concerned with themselves, rather than contributing to the rest of the college.

He also questions whether the Greek organ iza t ions are really serv ing the i r own m e m b e r s enough. Peer pressure and lack of individualism seem to be another problem the President has observ-ed. But VanWylen declared his biggest d i s appo in tmen t to be pledging. The time demanded for this type of initiation is unfair to the conscientious student, whose grades suffer greatly.

The reports he has been given

from s t u d e n t s who have gone through pledging have b rough t him to the conclusion that it is degrading and dehumanizing.

The program was then turned over to Dave VanderWel who brought out that the administra tion and Greeks have not gotten along too well in the pas t . He attributes this to the fact that the administration is notified only of the bad things done by Greeks, and never the good accomplish-ments.

VanderWel feels the study of the Greeks and the i r goals is important for many reasons. Title IX might question equal housing for the fraternities and sororities, along with similar rush programs. He ques t ions the d i s i n t e r e s t of students in Greek organizations, which is h igher now than in previous vears.

He also feels there are a large amount of Greek members who go inact ive in the i r senior yea r . VanderWel sugges t ed t ha t the soror i t i e s and f r a t e r n i t i e s no

'ALICE" CAST

"My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing."

T h a t is the beginning of a patriotic American hymn familiar to most who have grown up in the United States. The ideas of liberty and freedom as put forth by our "founding fathers" have been hal-lowed by most of our people. These ideals, based on "certain unal ienable rights" endowed to us by our Creator, have spurned on numerous move-ments throughout our history.

Voting rights for women, civil rights, equal rights and abortion rights are but some of the ma-ny manifestations of how these rights movements have pervaded our society. Are these movements acceptable as reflecting Christian aims? 1 believe they most of ten are not .

T h e emphasis on the freedom of the individual to do as he pleases or to pursue happiness is not the biblical emphasis, as I see it. T h e teachings of scripture indicate an emphasis on responsibilities ra ther than on rights.

We are told in both the Old and New Testa-ments that we should love God with our whole be-ing and our neighbor as ourself. T h a t is the great-

Rights or Duty est responsibility given to both Christian and Jew.

In re-emphasizing responsibility over rights I am not saying that Christians should not uphold justice and help to deliver the oppressed.

No, I a m merely stating that the biblical em-phasis is on the corporate responsibility for each other , ra ther than on each individual's claim for his or her respective rights. Perhaps there should be a Civil Responsibilities Bill or an Equal Responsibilities Amendment .

Something written by Giuseppe Mazinni in his "An Essay on the Duties of Man Addressed to Workingmen" of 1860, I believe, illustrates my point .

"Workingmen! Brothers! When Christ came, and changed the face of the world, He spoke not of rights to the rich, who needed not to achieve them; nor to the poor, who would doubtless have abused them in imitation of the rich; He spoke not of util-ity nor of interest to a people whom interest and utility had corrupted; He spoke of Duty, He spoke of Love, of Sacrifice, and of Faith; and He said that they should be first among all, who had con-tr ibuted most by their labor to the good of all."

This is an editorial Nothing was right this weekend. After

slewing for two hours (between naps) Fri-day afternoon. I decided not to go watch the Pull because it would depress me in case one team lost. Dinner at Prince's was great until I realized that the establish-ment owed us over $300 in unpaid ad-vertisement, so I couldn't really recom-mend them.

I laughed so hard at Mel Brooks' "Silent Movie" that I got stares, and walking through the Crazy Horse Saloon ten minutes later, I could have sworn that the Three Stooges were waving windshield wipers at me. Nor could I find a place to sit down and cough.

Saturday I went to the football game. The gauche crowd not only didn't know enough to put their hands over their hearts when the flag was raised, but they applauded the national anthem, and why not? It's got almost as much vim as the latest version of the Lord's Prayer.

The band at half-time wore nice colors, had lousy line formation, and could kneel like all get out. Why did I never see their show at Michigan-Michigan State games?

After testing out all seven possible body positions on my bleacher, all of them un-successful, I left to begin thinking about my editorial, only to fall asleep under the nearest tree.

In Sunday Softball the Freaks beat the Freaks, alias the Pagans and the Hea-

thens, 22-18. T h e dogs were wild (and covered in sludge and mud from the near-est stream), the sun warm and soothing, the keg in the shaded dug-out leaked, and the quality of play progressively joyful and regressively efficient throughout the six-teen innings. Or was it the second game by then?

Then to a Greek pow wow in the cha-pel. We were informed that the Cosmos, in particular, enjoyed a vulgar and dehu-manizing pledge program because their brainwashed pledges have to quest for a pair of girl's panties every spring.

Also, we Greeks had better cut it out, because we're being investigated in the attempt to sift our goals and purposes from our fun and games.

The final kicker came reading the Grand Valley State College 'Lan thom" (checking out the competition). GVSC elected a hairy young man with suspicious last name to be President of their Student Congress.

In the half-page spread he got, he took the opportunity to bristle his impressive moustache and flip the bird to the photo-grapher with both right and left hands. His successful campaign slogan was, "I'll never drink cocktails with the administra-. * if tion.

My gut reaction was, "Bully for youl You've got red blood in your veins. You may not be too bright, but at least your quick, not dead, and if you're no better or no worse than any other Student Coun-cil President, at least when you're asked why you didn't get anything accom-plished, you'll stagger with surprise and say, 'Oh, was I supposed to?' "

Hope gets deader every year. We need a course on anarchy.

Stoke a dying fire by M o l l y M i l l b r a n d

Now that the Pull is over and we've had a few football games and dances, you may be wondering if you should go out with the same person you did last week-end. Or, you may be wondering if you'll ever go out.

I'll assume you've already crossed that bridge. Or maybe I should say 'gate'. For once you've gone on a date, like many other things in love, there's no way to say you've never done itl Back to the point - who are you going to go out with this weekend?

If you weren't too hot on last weekend's date (or last night's, depending on how active you are), try someone different. Or try someone differently, maybe it's your approach that's freezing the reaction. Variety is the aphrodisiac of lovel (Who made that one up?)

Ah, that may be true, you say, but what if you're slightly attached to someone? It's not the kindest or the wisest thing to say, "Forget it, I 'm bored with you."

What you're more likely bored with is holding hands. Now, why ditch all the time it took you to working up to hold-ing hands to start it all over again? Think of saving all the agony of hearing, "No, I can't do that ," while trying to convince your love that it would express better than words how much you care.

Instead of going through the trials and tribulations of the American dating scene, why not realize that what you've got just

We need Cosell

needs a little work. Love may bloom at first sight, but a little cultivation keeps it growing!

But handholding? W^hat can you do with handholding?

Well, there's the Tight Hold, this can be done with two hands; the Gradual Caress, moving down from the elbow until you finally reach the hand (which by now is tingling with anticipation); the Timid Tease, in which you merely brush your fingertips across your lover's hand, making contact a bit firmer each time; and the Attack of Attila the Hun (grabbing and taking what you want - that beautiful hand) .

Finesse at its utmost suggests rubbing your finger in the hollow of your lover's hand. Extremely exciting, especially un-der the table, if the slight hint of exhibi-tionism turns you on.

The Innocent Bystander requires that you allow your hand to lie carelessly upon the couch and wait for the pounce. The Velvet Vamp stirs her drinks with her fin-ger.

The success of this technique, however, depends on liking alcohol or grenadine syrup more than disliking a little sticki-ness.

But before I give everything away, I'll leave the rest to your imagination and resourcefulness. One word of advice: don't try the Limp Fish; it can do absolutely nothing in the way of rejuvenating your relationship!

I keep wracking my brain trying to think what the Great Debate between Gerry Ford and Jimmy Carter could have used, and the only thing I keep coming up with is Howard Cosell. Had Howard been the sole questioner, it's doubtful that anyone would have called the confrontation between the two presidential candidates boring.

This is the way it would have gone if the League of Women Voters had had the good sense to turn over the debate to America's favorite sportscaster:

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is Howard Cosell speaking to you from ringside at the Walnut Street Theater in Philadelphia. We are about to watch a 90-minute debate between two mediocre men who, frankly, surprised me by getting the nominations of their respective par-ties. I'm sorry, folks, but I'm telling it like it is.

"Jimmy Carter is practically an un-known politician who squeaked through the primaries to become the Democratic Party candidate. He has little or no ex-perience in government and is as confused about the issues as any man this reporter has ever watched.

"His opponent became President by ac-cident, and Gerry Ford, if you want my honest opinion, will never go down in his-tory with the great ones. Even as the in-cumbent President of the United States, he just managed to squeak out a narrow vic-tory over the former actor and ex-gover-nor of California who, in my book, was miscast as 'The Gipper' in a 'B' movie titled 'Knute Rockne.'

"Now, gentlemen, I am going to ask you some questions and I want straight answers.

"My first question is to you, Mr. Presi-dent. Why did you pardon a crook who admitted to obstructing justice while he held the highest office in the land?"

"Well, Howard, I thought he had suffered enough. He had been forced to resign from the highest office in the land and I believed that was punishment enough."

"A likely story, Mr. President, but I just can't buy it. I know for a fact that Gen. A1 Haig came to you and proposed a pardon for Nixon before Tricky Dick offered to resign. But that's neither here nor there. My next question is to you, Mr. Carter. What makes you think you have the ex-perience and ability to be President of the United States after the mess you perpe-trated in Georgia when you lived in the

governor's mansion?" "I didn't leave a mess in Georgia. When

I became governor there were 200 separate bureaus and . . . ."

"Mr. Carter, can we leave statistics out of this? Just answer the question yes or no."

"Yes or no what?" "I thought as much. You're still as con-

fused about the issues as when you started the campaign. All right, let's go on to something else. Mr. President, where do you stand on taxes?"

"I believe the middle-class worker should get some tax relief, and I have pro-posed several bills which the Democratic Congress has seen f i t . . . "

"Mr. President, may I remind you we're on the air and no one cares what dis-agreements you have with Congress. Mr. Carter, would you please answer the question?"

"I believe that if you read my tax pro-posals, you will see I am for cutting out tax loopholes for the rich and the large corporations and helping the little fellow who cannot avail himself of high-priced lawyers and accountants who. . ."

"I'm sorry. Governor, we have to keep moving along and since neither one of you has answered the question, let me ask this of you. Where do you stand on the FBI and CIA violating the laws of the land, Mr. President?"

"When I came into the White House, the first thing I did was to clean out the FBI and CIA and the record will show that both these agencies are now doing a superb job."

"That's your story. Mr. Carter, what do you have to say to Mr. Ford's ridiculous response?"

Suddenly the sound goes off as Gov. Carter starts to speak.

Twenty-eight minutes later it is re-stored. Cosell is speaking. "Ladies and gentlemen, as you are aware, we lost the sound for the past 28 minutes which, in my personal opinion, was a blessing. There doesn't seem to be any necessity to continue this discussion because it certain-ly wasn't the type of debate we had been led to believe it would be. Let's be honest. It was a dreary 90 minutes of sha-dow boxing, the likes of which I haven't seen since Muhammad Ali fought Chil-blain Semko in Finland in 1969. I'm sony to have to say this, but I have to tell it like it is."

Age of Aquarius want Carter Page 5

by William V. Shannon Washing ton , S e p t . 28 - T h e

heart has hungers that the real world cannot satisfy. They exist independent of politics, but politics cannot be fully comprehended without taking account of them.

BEYOND THE bounda r i e s of the busy, everyday world with its reasonableness, impersonal rules and dry practicality, a person may sense the existence of and yearn for a d i f f e r e n t kind of r ea l i t y , another realm of experience.

This hunger takes many forms. It can be the political radica l s dream of a truly just and humane society, the re l ig ious mys t i c ' s reaching out for the unknowable, or the romantic's deciphering of the un ive r se in t h e f l ight of a seagull or the p a t t e r n of a snowflake.

IT CAN BE the tortured vision of a madman, a Van Gogh or a Blake; it can be the thunderous music first heard only in the mind of a deaf genius like Beethoven.

But genius is not r e q u i r e d . Ordinary people, too, in t he i r workaday l ives expe r i ence mo-ments of Epiphany and "intima-tions of immortality."

THROUGHOUT PAST ages , human beings transcended reality and the limitations of their own lives through religion and, impor-tan t ly though less commonly, t h rough a r t . But for many Amer icans today , rel igion is a dead or declining force in their lives and for society as a whole,

Carter vs. Ford On Foreign Policy

by Rob Torresen In reviewing the stands of the

presidential candidates regarding foreign policy, it is appropriate to summarize four key issues - a r m s control, detente, military spending and mi l i ta ry i n t e rven t ion and covert actions.

And if one can expect the debate of October 6th to produce as few surprises as the last debate did, then t h e following is stil l an accurate account of their respec-tive stands.

ARMS CONTROL: In reference to the SALT negotiations of the past Republican administrations, C a r t e r claims t h a t 44The agree-men t s r eached to d a t e nave succeeded largely in changing the buildup in strategic arms from a ' quan t i t a t i ve ' to a ' qua l i t a t ive ' arms race."

CARTER ARGUES t h a t we must comple te a g r e e m e n t s on ceilings and get down to " t h e centerpiece of SALT - t h e actual negotiation of reductions in strate-gic forces and measures effectively hal t ing the race in s t r a t e g i c weapons technology."

He feels t h a t unless t h e s e cu tbacks a r e made soon, o the r nat ions will be encouraged to develop their own nuclear tech-nology and capability.

FORD HAS SAID that he is "convinced the American people want their President, their gov-ernment, to make responsible and safe a g r e e m e n t s . On t h e o the r hand, I do not bel ieve t h e American people w a n t t he i r President to give more than he gets...I can assure you we will not give more than we get."

Ford claims that if the SALT II pact can be comple ted success-fully, ,4it would keep a lid on strategic arms for the next seven to ten years. It will compel the Russ ians to cut back on t h e i r c u r r e n t s t r a t e g i c mi l i ta ry cap-abilty."

HE RECENTLY signed a treaty t h a t would allow for rec iproca l inspection by Soviet and American scientists of each nation's testing sites.

DETENTE: Both C a r t e r and Ford agree on the fundamentals of th i s issue. Al though t h e F o r d admin i s t r a t ion claims to h a v e abandoned the word, the concept is still very much present.

Ford defines his policy to be a "fervent desire for peace - b u t not peace at any price. It means the

preservation of fundamental Am-erican principles, not their sacri-f ice." He will cont inue to seek "peace through strength."

CARTER FEELS that "detente can be an instrument for long-term peaceful change within the Com-munist system, as well as in the rest of the world...The relationship of detente is one of both coopera-tion and competition, of new kinds of contacts in some areas along with continued hostility in others.. the benef i t s of d e t e n t e mus t accrue to both sides, or they are worthless."

MILITARY SPENDING: Here, Carter 's position has been somewhat unclear. At one point, he claimed that a $5 to $7 billion cut in defense spending annually would be possible wi thout en-danger ing the secur i ty of the nation. Later he said that such a cut might not be a safe move after all.

C a r t e r claims t h a t sav ings would be had if we were "hard-headed in the development of new weapon systems" and by cutting some military personnel to streamline the chain of command.

FORD SAYS that "the amounts I seek will provide the national defense it now appears we need. We dare not do less." His adminis-tration has recently submitted a record peace-time defense budget of $112.7 billion.

Regarding military intervention and covert actions, Jimmy Carter has been quoted as follows. "We have learned t h a t never again should our country become militar-ily involved in the internal affairs of another nation unless there is a direct and obvious threat to the security of the United States or its people. .

"THE CIA MUST o p e r a t e within the law. The function of intelligence should be to provide th is service , not to o v e r t h r o w g o v e r n m e n t s or make fore ign policy unilaterally or in secret."

On t h e Republ ican side, t h e President's recent Executive Or-der on Intelligence Activities has made his position quite clear.

IT PROHIBITS physical surveil-lance of U.S. citizens and resident aliens with specified exceptions, prohibits the CIA from performing electronic surveillance within the U.S., and specifies the conditions under which in format ion on domestic activities of U.S. persons could be collected.

Americans, has had his sense of himself d immed by co rpo ra t e corruption and giant bankruptcies.

FROM Mississippi to Vietnam, from Berkeley to Watergate, all crusades have furled their flags and all ideals seem dead or dishonored.

When secular dreams die, the r esu l t is d is i l lus ionment and political a p a t h y . When an un-churched people turn away from religion, they do not lose their sense of the transcendental and the i r s ec r e t hunge r s . Ins t ead , cults and fads rush in.

THIS IS THE Age of Aquarius, the time of Esalen and yoga and acupuncture, the day of conscious-ness- ra is ing and the Reve rend Moon. Most of t h e s e popular interests are hardly encouraging signs for any society. Astrologers were popular at the court of Louis XVI and itinerant holy men at the court of Nicholas II.

This nat ional election is t hus being conducted amid many evidences of fatalism and apathy. It is a contest for the leadership of a society t ha t is politically disi l lusioned and cul tura l ly in disarray.

THE REPUBLICANS could have gambled on the new leadership of Ronald Reagan and the energ iz ing fe rvor of his neo-fundamentalist following, but in t h e end they put down the Reagan challenge as if it were an unseemly proxy f igh t aga ins t management. Gerald Ford's stodg-iness and complacency meet apathy on its own terms. His is the politics of hibernation.

The Democra t s did gamble . J immy C a r t e r is a newcomer . Politically, he summons the nation not to a new crusade but to a r e s to ra t ion of a u t h o r i t y and a revival of mutua l t r u s t - t h e indispensable prerequisites to the revival of a creative politics. The risk for Mr. Carter is that they are essentially conservative themes, unfamil iar to the l iberal consti-tuency in his party.

CULTURALLY, Mr. C a r t e r would if e lected be a power fu l symbol of 2.n old, conse rva t ive rel igion. Unlike the fashionable pseudo-religions that profess to offer personal fu l f i l lment and peace of mind, he bespeaks the t rad i t ion of the Old T e s t a m e n t

The rights of tenants would be re inforced by legislat ion which passed the Michigan Senate today, according to the bil l 's sponsor . State Representative Perry Bul-lard (D-Ann Arbor).

PASSING THE Senate by a 25 to 7 vote, the bill would prevent eviction wi thout due process . After expected House concurrence in minor Senate amendments, H.B. 4957 will be sent to the Governor for his signature.

Under the bill, landlords would be liable for a minimum of $200 in damages if they shut off a tenant's utilities, remove a tenant's per-sonal be longings f rom a r en t a l unit, change locks without giving the tenant a new key, or board up doors and windows in the absence of the tenant.

A TENANT could not be thrown out dur ing a d i spu t e with a landlord until the landlord follows due process and the tenant has an opportunity for a court hearing.

The new law will go into effect on March 1, 1977.

The bill was previously amend-ed and agreed upon by representa-tives of landlord and tenant groups before House passage in April by a 62 to 29 vote.

"MOST LANDLORDS do act in a lawful m a n n e r " , said Bullard. "This legislat ion is in tended to d e t e r those few unscrupulous landlords who attempt to operate without regard for the rignts of the i r t e n a n t s and the require-m e n t s of the law r e g a r d i n g eviction procedure."

Back in the groove by Doug Irons

F o r g e t those f r u s t r a t i n g pre-season non- league losses. The "real" football season started for Hope last S a t u r d a y , with the Dutchmen rolling over their first MIAA opponent, Olivet, 26-0.

"IT'S GOT TO be a very positive start for our MIAA season when we have four touchdowns, another called back and we shut out our opponent," Coach Ray Smith said.

We still feel that we can play better than we did, though. We leveled off a little bit this game; didn't play with the intensity that we're capable of: we were a little flat. It wasn't as emotional a game as last week ' s (against Indiana Central).

'THE HOME CROWD again helped us: this kind of game out of town could have been tough."

Kurt Bennett heads the list of individuals deserving recognition for the Olivet game. The Zeeland senior broke Greg Voss' all-time Hope career rushing record with the 52 yards he gained (all in the first half) bringing his career total to 2374 yards, ahead of Voss' 2358.

OTHER OFFENSIVE s tand outs included Jim Holwerda, with 5 pass receptions for 70 yards; Mike Skelton (three TD's for 82 yards); Dewey Thompson; John Hartman and Kevin Clark ("he had an excel len t kicking game on punting and kickoffs," Smith said). On defense, "The entire secondary again played very well," as did Bill Collins and Paul Osburn according to Smith.

Hope's next start is against the Hornets of Kalamazoo, at Kalama-zoo. "They have s t r eng th on o f fense with two fine runn ing backs, a fine offensive line and a good quarterback.

4 THEIR PROBLEM is they haven't been able to stop their opponents much. They have a lot of young p layers t ha t t h e y ' r e developing, so we feel it's to our advantage to get them this early. We're into the league competition now, so every game is important."

F.H. progresses hy Peggy Hielihy

The Hope Women 's Field Hockey Team continued to show p r o g r e s s t o w a r d s cap tu r ing the MIAA crown for the second year in a row S a t u r d a y . The team traveled to Calvin to play in a Quadrangular against Adrian and Albion.

HOPE'S FIRST game was with Albion and desp i t e the in ju r ies suffered by the team in the first half of play, the women were determined to pull back together and cont inue to play the i r normally aggressive game.

Their desire did not seem to be enough, though, and they went down to defeat 1-2 with Hope's lone goal being scored by Diane Lane.

AT 2:30 THAT afternoon Hope, in an exc i t ing game, had the i r determination pay off and Adrian was defeated 2-3. Karen Hart je scored one of the goals, and Sue Gebhart (co-captain) played her usually strong offensive game and picked up an additional two goals.

Hope's J.V. team traveled with t h e Vars i ty and they soundly defeated Adrian 7-0 with Sopho-more Forward Deb Welsh looking very impressive throughout the game.

WEDNESDAY THE Dutch women travel to Notre Dame in hopes of picking up another point

ill in their win column.

Mark Leonard was next with an 80, followed by Dave Wrieden (83), captain Doug Peterson (84) and Lou Czanko (85).

"We're scoring better this year than last, but everyone else is, too ," Cutsha l l commented on Hope's second loss of the season, th i s t ime to Adr ian , 402-411. Wr ieden shot 77, Pe t e r son 79, Czanko 85, Leonard 86 and Gibson,

Dutchmen Harriers shock Olivet by Mark Ongley

A good-sized crowd showed up last Saturday to watch the Hope cross country team shock Olivet in the i r f i r s t MIAA match of the season. Seven Dutchmen runners all finished 50 yards or more in front of Olivet's first man for a pe r f ec t 15-50 shu tou t of the Comets.

LOU HOEKSTRA, Dick Nort huis, George Moger, Kevin Web-ster, Kim Spalsbury, John Kosti-shak, and Scott Bradley finished f i r s t t h r o u g h seven th , in t ha t o rde r . This solid pe r fo rmance shows a marked improvemen t

from their poor performance at their own invitational only 2 weeks earlier.

Also running well were fresh-men Glenn Luther and Jim Shoe-maker, placing 12th and 13th res-pectively. Both show good poten-tial and could f igure into the scoring later on in the season.

SHUTOUTS ARE very rare in cross country because it takes a team with g r e a t s t r e n g t h and depth to place seven runners in front of another team's best man. Admittedly, Olivet is not a cross country powerhouse, but Satur-day ' s impres s ive win demon-

s t r a t e s t h e s t r e n g t h tha t this year 's team has.

Coach William Vanderbilt was, of course, pleased with the results of the race. This was the first shut-out Hope has had since he started coaching in 1971. He also pointed out George Moger ' s fine race. George has been hampered by injuries and is only now beginning to run up to par.

THE FLYING Dutchmen ap pear to be the team to beat as they defend their MIAA championship title of last year. Their next home meet is October 16, against Alma at the Amer ican Legion Golf Course.

Soccer team takes first MIAA win by Mark Ongley

The Hope soccer team grabbed their first MIAA win last Friday as they shut out Alma College, 5-0. This victory starts them out in the winning column (1-0) for the regu-lar MIAA season. The Dutch were able to dominate most of the game as the novice team from Alma dis-played their inexperience.

A STANDOUT in the game was freshman Jim DeJulio who became the f o u r t h individual in Hope 's history to score four goals in one game. The last man to do that was Manuel Cuba in 1968. The other goal was gained by Gary Hut-chings.

The team played together well as a whole with Mark Bombara, J u a n Ramirez , Brad Kirk , Bill Dyrsten, and Dave Silber having exceptionally fine performances. Co-captain Bill Dyrsten observed that the team is improving in its basic, fundamentals such as pass-ing and ball handling.

ACCORDING TO co-captain Brad Ki rk , th is yea r ' s t eam is more balanced than the o the r Hope teams he has played on. The guys are more willing to pass the
