First Chapel Change Accepted

GARDEN SCENE—Debbie Noe as Raina and John Lucius as Sergius discuss the fortunes of war in one of the q u i d moments in the Little Theater 's first production of the year, " A r m s and the Man" by George Bernard Shaw. The play was presented Wednes-day and T h u r s d a y and will be given again tonight and tomorrow night at 8 :15 p.m.

'Arms and the Man' Plays Friday, Saturday Nights

The ma jo r fall production of the Little Theatre, Shaw's "Arms and the M a n " is being presented to-night and tomorrow at 8:15 in the Little Theatre on the fourth floor of the Science Building.

The cast includes Deborah Noe as Raina Petkoff, Bonnie Everts as Catherine Petkoff, Robert Kieft as Captain Bluntschli, John Lu-cius as Sergius, Danny Williams as Louka , Joe Fava le as Nicola, Dennis Jones as Major Petkoff, Don Battjes as a Russian officer, and Patti Smith and Carol Latham as two serving maids.

George Ralph directed the cast, and Donald Finn designed the sets. Fred Ebeling acted as Tech-nical Director, Carol La tham is stage manage r , and Dave Croth-ers and Denny Farmer act as her assistants.

The p lay takes place in late nineteenth century Bulgaria and centers a round the destruction of romantic illusions about love and war. References to Byron and Pushkin and the romantic pos-turing of characters emphasize the impossible ideals which Raina and her fiance Sergius hold at the beginning of the play.

The mercenary Swiss soldier Captain Bluntschli pun^turca u-luoiuns by hia accurate and rea-listic descriptions of war, and is the agent in revealing the bases of action to the characters them-selves and to the audience.

"Arms and the M a n " contains both a "downs ta i r sp lo t " concern-ing va r ious servant 's maneuv-ering, and an "ups ta i r s plot"

which deals with the disillusion of Raina and Sergius about the na-ture of love and war.

The play is representative of Shaw's ability to coin quotable lines, including Sergius 'statement that " Everything I think is mock-ed by everything 1 do" and the comment that the play 's action takes place in this "huge impos-ture of a world."

The play's title is taken from John Dryden's t ranslat ion of the opening lines of Virgil's Aeneid;

Arms and the Man 1 sing, who, forc'd by Fate And haughty Juno ' s unrelent-ing hate, Expell'd and exil'd, left theTro-j an shore. . .

At a special meeting last Mon-day night, the faculty of Hope College voted to accept the pro-posal by the Religious Life Com-mittee exempting students f rom chapel on g rounds of conscien-tious objection.

The proposa l , which was ac-cepted, is one of two m a d e by the RLC on Nov. 9, and, according to Dr. William Vander Lugt, Dean for Academic Affairs, will go into effect immediately.

The proposa l , as passed, allows exemptions to all students, "who are bona fide members of any religious body the beliefs of which conflict with Hope's chapel requirement."

T H E MOTION, presented at the meeting by Dr. David Clark, assistant professor of history at Hope, was somewhat altered. The statement original ly read, "ex-emption from chapel attendance be granted to any Hope College student who is a bona fide mem-ber of any religious body whose beliefs conflict with Hope's chapel requirement."

Rev. Ponstein, cha i rman of the RLC, said that the reason for the change was to m a k e the proposa l a somewhat more personal matter.

ACCORDING TO Dean Vander Lugt, the proposa l includes all non-Christ ian beliefs and those religions which do not condone

worshiping within the fellowsnip of another religious body. He went on to say that this does not mean that a student can simply go before the Chapel Board and request exemption.

"The re must be a letter from the church of which the student is a member, certifying that he is a member and that there are ob-jections to his or her participa-tion in the religious service," he said. "Th i s letter must be pre-sented to the Chapel Board, which will then decide whether or not the request shall be granted."

The second part of the RLC proposal , referred to as t he"Hi l -legonds' Chapel Plan," was tabled Hue to the time factor.

T H E PROPOSAL, which would require f reshmen to attend chapel

twice a week, sophomores once a week, and exemptjuniors and sen-iors f rom chapel altogether, will be voted on at the next faculty meet-ing

Dean Vander Lugt said, how-ever, that it seemed unlikely that the second proposal would affect students at Hope this year. " T h e motion, if passed by the faculty, still has to be accepted by the Board of Trustees and they will not vote on it until their spring meeting, which will be held in March ."

Last vear thefaculty defeated an RLC proposa l to replacethecom-pulsory worship system, pro-viding for a lecture series as an alternative. Last year 's faculty also expressed a straw vote sup-port of compulsory chapel.

Japanese Pianist, Onishi, Presents Recital in Chapel

NSA Food Fast Will Help Buy

Books for Southern Negroes By giving up their evening meal

next Monday, Hope students will have a chance to help Negroes of the South through theNat ionui Student A s s o c i a t i o n r a s t f o r Free-dom.

This year 's Freedom Fas t funds will go to Books for Equal Edu-cation, which distributes money to Southern Negro colleges; the Southern H u m a n Relations Pro-ject, fostering p r o g r a m s and con-ferences on problems in h u m a n relations such as the Selma Lit-eracy Project; and to centers for literacy instruction in Mississippi.

There will be sign-up sheets at the supper lines this week for boardir i f j otudents who wish to participate. The money from these meals will be given by Slater to Dick Kooi, who will send it to the nat ional NSA office.

Interested non-board ing stu-dents m a y give S1.50 to either Bob Claver in Dosker Cottage, or to Kooi in Crispell Cottage by November 21.

In cooperat ion with m a n y other youth and student organizat ions, NSA has sponsored a fast every Thanksg iv ing since 1961.

Japanese pianist Miss Aiko Oni-shi will present a recital Sunday at 4 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial Cha-pel. The recital is part of a con-tinuing series of Cultural Affairs events sponsored by the College.

Included in Miss Onishi's recital will be "Var ia t ions in F Minor" by Hadyn, " C a r n a v a l " by Schu-mann , "Valses Nobles et Senti-mentales" by Ravel and "Prelude, Chorale and Fugue" by Franck.

A civilian advisor to General Douglas MacArthur who was an enthusiastic music lover had an opportuni ty of hearing Miss Oni-shi p lay in Japan . Being so fav-orably impressed with her play-ing and believing in her future, this gentleman exerted his influ-ence in her behalf which led to an invitation to study at the East-man School of Music with Madam Cecile Genhart.

It was the work done in the years that she worked under Ma-dam Genhart which laid the real foundat ion for the almost epic development of this unusual artist. After receiving the Performer 's Certificate and the Artist's Diplo-ma, the highest award bestowed in the field of per formance at the Eas tman School of Music, she

AIKO O N I S H I has been coaching with F rank Mannheimer, an internationally known artist teacher.

Her tours have included appear-ances with the N. H. K. Symphony, the Tokyo Symphony and the Nippon Philharmonic Orchestra She has appeared in all ma jo r cities of Japan .

Causes of Apathy Examined

Attendance Low At Cultural Affairs Programs "Part icipat ion in the College

Cultural Affairs p rog ram has not been very good , " said Dr. Paul G. Fried, cha i rman of the history department and consultant to the Cultural Affairs Committee.

DR, F R I E D O F F E R E D five possible reasons for this poor re-sponse, which he said were not mutually exclusive.

The first is that the wrong people are brought to the campus. If the Cultural Affairs Committee brought lecturers who interested the students mf r e , perhaps more more would attentf.

DnDouglasNeckers , cha i rman of the Cultural Affairs Com-mittee, emphasized that If students or faculty have suggestions for lec-turers or performers, they can be made through any committee member. However, President Cal-vin A. VanderWerf noted that much of t}ie p lann ing of the pro-, g rams is done In the summer when the bulk of student and faculty help and advice is unavailable.

T H E SECOND possible expla-nation is that events are scheduled at the wrong time and that stu-

dents are unable to attend or it is inconvenient. Dr. Fried sug-gested that the fact that TOOpeople heard Mr. Sal isbury shows that this is not the case.

Third, there is the possibility that there is not enough publicity for these events. Theproblem here is to think of ways that more students could be made aware of events that are taking place.

The fourth possible reason is that too m a n y events a rep lanned . The question Dr. Fried asked here Is what should be the basis for these p r o g r a m s . He asked If we should expect the entire campus to hear a lecture, and therefore de-signate it as an All-College Assem-bly?

T H E EDUCATIONAL POLI-CIES Committee Is presently con-sidering a related topic: whether classes should be dismissed so that ail students canattend these assemblies.

According to Dean for Acade-mic Affairs William Vander Lugt, this was a reasonable Idea when the College was smaller, because it was not possible to haveclasses

and even a fair turn-out for a lec-ture at the sama time. Now, how-ever, it is possible.

In fact, hesaid , dismissingclass-es seems to be self-defeating. The College is s topping classes, in which most students learn at least something, to have a poor attendance at a lecture where few are exposed to its benefits. He therefore is opposed to the poli-cy of dismissing classes for cul-tural affairs events.

DR, F R I E D suggests that per-haps the College should be sat-isfied with concurrent events with a representation f r o m the spe-cialized field with which the par-ticular lecture deals.

The final explanat ion Is student apathy. Students, he said, might not be Interested In " h a v i n g their horizons broadened th rough these p r o g r a m s . "

This raises the question of whether It is the responsibility of the College through the Cultural Affairs Committee to provide a cultural, extra-curricular pro-g r a m .

C U L T U R A L AFFAIRS—Empty chairs like these are not un-common at Cultural Affairs events. In the past attendance at the various lectures has been very low.

C L U B & CAMPUS FASHIONS By CHIP TOLBERT ESQUIRE'S FASHION EDITOR

BY NOW, YOU'VE FOUND OUT "where it's n f — a l l of It - Inc lud

CUPER SHETLANDS FOR CAMPUS SHOWMEN are the strictly

'S ix t ies s w e a t e r s for the con tempora ry college man. Shetland swea te rs , a campus classic f r o m your grandfathers time, hav® )een upda ted both in fiber and in f ash ion . Pure Shetland wools are being blended wi th man-made fibers, to fit more easily into today'a

frenetic schedules. The equally traditional crew and short-V necks lave been joined by turtienecks, shawl collars and deep-V'fl to a i d

more v a r i e ty to your sweater collection. Look for them in soft , leather blends—always the backbone of Shetland colors—and i a

darker, more vibrant shades, some of them patterned.

FOR CASUAL OCCASIONS — o n or ofT-camptii

—there's a new idea: the "Country S u i t " I t ' l

classic in cut, but more informal in fabric th t kind of suit worn on long weekends by t h e B r i t -

ish Establishment, in bold, colorful tweed

checks and plaids. These tweeds are a bit heav ler, strong and rugged enough to withstand extra wear—a good thing when you consider

that the jackets may be worn separately as a sport coat! You can find them with or without vests and—if you're feel ing somewhat more ad venturous—in slightly shaped models with side

vents.

YOUR UNIFORM UNIFORM FOR CAMPUS WEAR — t h e raincoat

—is sho r t e r and a little less uniform this year. This staple item goes to classes, mixers, hamburger joints—sometimes we wonder if you sleep in your raincoats (and wouldn't be a bit surprised if

you d i d ! ) . The new models are found, much as usual, in water-repellent poplins—in navy, along with your favorite natural tan and bone colors. Many of them sport a practical zip-in pile fabric or wool lining, while others are reversible (like plaid wool to pop-l in) . The double-breasted idea is gaining here as well as in other campus wear, but single-breasted fly-front and button-through models arc still very much in evidence. Pockets offer another area of choice, between the regulation slant and flapped pockets or— newer—the bellows pocket.

Senate Proposes EPC Addition The Student Senate voted unan-

imously to add a representative f rom Mortar Board to the Edu-cational Policies Committee. The reasoning for this was that Mor-tar Board has studied campus policies this year and feels that it has relevant recommendation^ to make. The proposal . is now in the hands of the Status Com-mittee.

Also Introduced was a motion that the 1967-68 membership fee for the Michigan Association-for Student Governments be paid. Hope has not belonged to the MASG for the past two years, but Bob Claver felt that since the

• organizafion has been revised, it would.be a good way to exchange information with all the colleges in Michigan. After some dis-cussion. the motion was tabled.

Another motion was introduced that vending machines equivalent to those in Dykstra be installed in the other girls' dorms with the approval of the dorm house board . The machines in Dykstra have hot food and sandwiches as well as candy.

President Craig Holleman read a letter from Dean of Students

• Robert De Young stating his de-sire to discuss with the Student

Life Committee the opening of the

Kletz on weekends and at night and the fo rmat ion of another center where students could gath-. er.

Holleman also announced that t ranspor ta t ion to the Simon and Garfunkel concert on F e b r u a r y 8, will be provided at minimal cost. Students will be admitted to the performance with identifi-cation cards.

It was brought to the Senate's attention that the f lag Hope is flying ha s only 48 stars. Senator Jiip Rubins mentioned that the Campus Improvements Commit-tee might look into the situation.

In addition, a committee was, set up. ' to look into the possibil-ities for an activity that would unite the f rosh and sophomores ag ainst the Up per classmen.

Little Interest Causes Low

(Continued f rom page 1)

DR. FRIED OBSERVED that the honorar ium received by Mr. Salisbury for a one-hour lecture is equal to the sa la ry paid to an assistant professor in a summer session who would give perhaps 60 lectures. Would it not be reas-onable to use the money now al-lotted to cultural affairs toward the hiring of a political science and music instructor rather than contract performers, he asked.

Dean Vander Lugt feels that the cultural affairs p r o g r a m "is par t of the liberal arts education." However, he finds it hard to a rgue against the idea that a full-time instructor might__be of more val-

Juniors Sponsor First Annual

All-Campus All-Night Party An all-night, all-campus party,

sponsored by the junior class, will be held tonight in the Nykerk HaU of Music from 1 a.m. until 6:30 a.m. It features the Stage Band until 3:30, games -ca rds , monopoly, twister and ping pong all night, plus donuts, free coffee and No Doze.

Faculty members will be there throughout the night to discuss any questions students have. Also a horror movie will be featured.

Dean of Women Isla Van Eene-n a a m said that girls are to sign out for the party and surrender their ID cards until 6:30, but the ^ e n are free to leave at any t ime

iunior class presi-Ron H o o . ^ t h e

dent stated the purpose . event was to do something dil-ferent. Also, it will give the stu-dents and faculty a time for an informal exchange of ideas, for these teachers hope to lead stimu-

lating bull sessions on subjects of any student's choice.

The teachers who will be present during thepar ty are Chaplain Wil-liam Hillegonds, Dr. Arthur Jentz of the philosophy department. Dr. J o a n Mueller and Dr. Charles Huttar of the English department, John Barlow and Dr. Leslie Beach of the psychology depart-ment, Dr. and Mrs. Martto Ur berg of the chemistry department; Dr. Gerhard Megow of the lan-g u a g e department, and Miss San-d ra Parker on the physical educa-tion staff.

ue. He cited the example of pro-curing Dr. James Muilenberg, one of the 32 scholars who collab-orated on the prepara t ion of the Revised Standard Version of the Holy Bible, as a Theologian-in-Residence two years ago.

However, he also said that the present system could be made more effective "merely by having the speakers stay on campus for two or three days, leading dis-cussions and attending classes. In this way, his impact may be more general throughout thecam-pus, contrasted tothehit-and-miss impact we have now."

Dr. Fried added that the poor response to speakers m a y have an effect on the chances of pro-curing other speakers. "Certain colleges," he said "can become known as a place where it is possible to launch an idea."

He noted that the Marshal l Plan was announced by Secretary of State George Marshall at a com-mencement address at Harva rd University. The ideafor the H o p e Holland-Hamlet drive was also gotten from an address at Mich-igan State University by Vice Pres-ident Hubert Humphrey.

"Institutions can earn a repu-tation for being receptive," he stated sizable audiences at lectures, help in the building of this reputation. He commented that the time invested in the visit of Dr. Walter Leitsch last weekend will p robab ly enhance Hope's chances for getting other speakers from the University of Vienna.

Unity is Illusion

Salisbury Lectures on Asia By Janice Bakker anchor Reporter

The Sino-Soviet split was de-scribed as " o n e of the most im-por tan t confrontat ions that exists between two ma jo r powers" by Har r i son Salisbury, Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and ex-pert on Asian affairs, in his speech in Dimnent Memorial Chapel last Sa turday .

M T H E APPEARANCE of a monolithic Communist alliance is false," he said, and "the split is publicly widening." It has wi-dened to such a degree, he said, that people in each of the two countries consider the other to be its " n u m b e r one enemy." Rus-sians whom Salisbury met on his latest trip to that country told him that the United States was at tempting to establish friendly r e lat ions with Red China, and Red Chinese with whom he talked said that Vietnam was being used as a base of operat ions f rom which the U.S., Russia and India wereplan-ning to attack Red China.

Sal isbury saw other evidence of conflict between the two Commu- :

nist powers dur ing his trip to the Sino-Soviet frontier last year. The Russian t roops had been reinforc-ed a long the Siberian border with China and serious border clashes

had broken out in that area last winter.

ACCORDING TO Salisbury, the Sino-Soviet spl i fIs ^ roo ted in na-tionalistic or ig ins" and "stems f rom the time that the Russian empire engorged itself at the ex-pense of Ch ina , " al though this had happened long before the Chinese Communist Party assum-ed control of the government of China in 1949.

Another cause ol continuous tension between China and Rus-sia is the fact that the Communist part ies of the two countries have not tradit ionally had friendly re-lations. Stalin gave little or no support to Mao Tse-Tung when he was leading the Chinese Commu-nist Party in a struggle to over-throw Chiang Kai-Shek's nation-alist regime dur ing the 1930's and 1940's. At the same time, Salisbury pointed out, Stalin maintained diplomatic relations with Chiang until his forces were driven off the main land by the Red Army.

SALISBURY S U G G E S T E D that Stalin m a v have secretly plot-ted against Mao at the same time that they were drawing up a treaty between China and Russia dur ing the Chinese leader 's visit to Mos-cow in 1949. " T h e r e were times

Hollenbach to Head GLCA Y ugoslav Seminar

Dr. J o h n W. Hollenbach, chair-m a n of the English department, has been appointed director of the Great Lakes College Association Yugoslav - American Seminar, which br ings together students at the University of Ljubl jana .

The director of the p r o g r a m since its inception in the summer of 1965 has been Dr. Irwin Abrams of Antioch College. Since Dr. Paul G. Fried, director of international education at Hope, has been coordinator of the sem-inar for the past three years, it was decided that the two admin-istrative offices should be com-bined within the College, accord-ing to Dr. Fried.

Dr. Fried also announced that changes have been made in the Hope College Vienna Summer School p r o g r a m , especially in th( a rea of pre-school study tours. His hope is that the present eastern and western tours will concentrate more on eastern and western Eur-ope, respectively.

Next summer there is the possi-bility that the eastern tour will be a four through the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, includ-ing the cities of Moscow, Lenin-g r a d and Kiev. It would begin in Berlin and travel eastward.

This year the eastern tour took students through Berlin, Poland and Czechoslovakia.

The western tour might be split into two groups. The first tour would travel exclusively in Ger-

The western tour last summer took students through Germany, Switzerland, F rance and Italy.

As in the past , all study tours W9uld meet in Vienna for the six-week study session.

All students involved in the Vi-enna Summer School will sail f rom New York on Juue 8 and will fly back to the United States f rom London on August 29.

DeHaan, Clark to Give Details

Of Teaching Program Monday Hope sruaents will have an op-

por tuni ty next Monday at 4 p.m. to hear details about the Philadel-phia P rog ram of the Great Lakes Colleges Association

m meeting will be held in Graves 101, with Dr. Robert De H a a n and Dr. David Clark report ing on the latest p lans about the pro-g r a m that will involve students in an active project in the inner-city of Philadelphia. As co-ordi-nator of the Philadelphia P r o g r a m for the GLCA, Dr. D e H a a n chair-ed a meeting this week of the committee responsible for esta-blishing the administrat ion of the project.

If the Hope College faculty ap-proves the administrat ive proce-dure for giving credit for student involvement in this p r o g r a m , stu-dents will be able to apply for th^ first p h a s e which begins Febri^ary 1. Students interested in consider-ing part icipat ing in the project are urged to l a l K with Drs. Clark or

De H a a n as soon as possible. Thirty-six students f rom the

Great Lakes colleges will be ac-cepted for the p r o g r a m start ing in F e b r u a r y . Twenty-four are antici-pated to be student teachers and i h e remaining twelve non-educa-tion majors .

In addition to m a j o r s In the social sciences, humanities, lan-guages and literature, education students p repa r ing for elementary and junior high teaching In the na tura l sciences are encouraged to consider the p r o g r a m .

The Germantown area of Phil-adelphia, where the p r o g r a m will be centered, contains m a n y acres of unspoiled pa rk . This offers opportunities for projects involv-ing outdoor l abora to ry exper-iences.

Dr. Clark emphasized that the p r o g r a m is not just for education students, even though the project will be supervised th rough the Philadelphia school districts.

when Mao vanished out of the pages of " P r a v d a " for relatively long periods of time, said Sal-isbury.

He stated that the Korean war was not intended as an attack on the United States, but was a Rus-sian-planned war aimed at Red China. It was an attempt by Sta-lin to "either m a k e Mao submit (to Russia) or replace him with a puppfet," according to Salis-bury.

Stalin, he said, had never "put up with independent communist leaders" of other countries, such as Yugoslavia ' s nationalistic pre-mier Tito. Therefore, he aimed to topple the independent Mao by embroiling him in a conflict with the U.S.

AFTER S T A L I N ' S death, the Khrushchev regime attempted to establish more friendly relations with its Asian counterpart , but the effort " w a s not enough to bridge the g a p " between the two nations.

Examines Salaries

SLC Considers Hours, Dress The Studem Life Committee

Tuesday night acted on four Stu-dent Senaterecommendat ions and passed a p roposa l which would provide remunerat ion of the anchor editors and the Student Senate President.

The SLC, taking action on the first Senate proposa l , voted to recommend to the Administrative Committee that Van Zoeren Li-b r a r y remain open f rom 8:20 a.m. to 10:45 p.m. on Monday through Sa tu rday and on Sun-d a y f rom 1:00 p.m. to 10:45p.m.

T H E COMMITTEE recognized the desirability of hav ing the \ir b r a r y open as much as possible. However, it did agree that finan-cial and staff considerations would have to be involved in the final decision.

With respect to a Senate pro-position asking an extension of the hours dur ing which Graves Hall is open, Dean of Students Robert De Young said that his office would investigate the pos-sibility of keeping Graves open until 11:00 p.m. on weekdays and 1:00 a.m. on weekends.

An SLC subcommittee was ap-pointed to look into the feasibili-ty of keeping the Kletz open al night and possibly dur ing the

Ten Calculators Installed to Aid Statistical Work

Ten electronic calculators have been installed in the statistics cen-ter to help students learn thebasic principles of statistics and statis-tical analysis without becoming burdened with numerical calcu-lations.

Dr. Robert De Haan , cha i rman of the education department, and Dr. Jay Folkert, cha i rman of th0 mathematics department, devel-' oped plans for the installation of these calculators, but the actual installation was made possible through a grant f rom the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare,

The machines are now being used extensively in physics, math-ematics and other statistical courses. This new computat ion center is located in Hope's phy-sics-math building.

supper hour on Monday through Thursday .

IN T H E PAST the Kletz has been closed at night because it operated at a financial loss. It was suggested that if the Kletz were open for the entire evening, the meals purchased bynon-board ing students might make the whole evening a financial success.

Craig Holleman, Student Senate President, said that he thought the Kletz should be kept open as a service to students regardless of financial loss. It is one of the few places on campus where stu-dents can come together after the day 's classes have been com-pleted.

A C T I N G ON T H E F O U R T H of the Senate proposals , the com-mittee passed a motion re-commending "re laxed dress re-quirements" in women's lounges and the Hbrary. Carol Schakel, president of the Association of

Women Students, said the propo-sal would give s tudents thechance to accept full responsibili ty in this matter. Limiting regulations could be passed later if necessary.

Two other Senate proposa ls , calling for an extension of semes-ter b reak and the terfnination of classes three to five d a y s before final examinat ions, were referred to the Educat ional Policies Com-mittee,

On the Facalty Vote La s t m o n d a y n i g h t the Hope

faculty voted to allow chap el exemp-tions to students who are b b n a fide

members of any religious body which has beliefs in conflict with Hope ' s chapel re-quirement.

This action by the faculty on the pro-posa l of the Religious Life Committee m a r k s a step forward for H o p e College. The recog-nition of therel igious rights of students hon-estly committed to a fa i th differing f rom that of the major i ty ot this College communi ty is an aff i rmat ion of the religious toleration which has formed a cornerstone of Ameri-can law and tradition for 2 0 0 years.

TH I S N A T I O N I S a b l e n d o f a l l s h a d e s oi belieT. Respect for the beliei and integrity of each of those shades is

vital in the 20th century. The faculty 's vote is a vote of respect for the honest principles of the minority in this 20th century educa-tional institution.

In addition to the value of this princi-ple, the method by which it has become a reality at this school is especially grat i fying. The impetus for the ratified proposal came from the Student Senate as a reflection of student opinion. It was considered and supported by the joint student-faculty Stu-

dem Life Committee. Now it has been de-bated and approved by the faculty of the College.

ALL T H E PROPER channels were fol-lowed; reason and resolve became the forces behind its rational con-

sideration. All issues should be handled in this manner . This College would then operate at a much higher level of excellence and efficiency.

The faculty will consider the second RLC proposa l later in the month. We hope the s a m e spirit will prevail at this meeting so that Mope College will emerge the true winner of the debate.

On Cultural Affairs THE I N T E R V I E W R E P O R T E D on

page one of this issue points to an unfor tunate situation in the life of

the campus . It seems to us sad that so few Hope students are tak ing a d v a n t a g e of the educational opportunit ies offered them through the Cultural Affairs p r o g r a m .

However, we feel that any attempts at improving thesituation would be even more unfortunate. To abolish the p r o g r a m en-urely because of the lack oi an overwhelm-ing interest would indeed leave the c a m p u s culturally impoverished. Yet to try increas-ing at tendance by any means other than mental stimulation would bepresumptuous as well as impossible.

WE CAN ONLY SAY T H A T in our opinion, especially when com-pared to the cultural p r o g r a m s

of other institutions of our size, the oppor-tunities for exposure to the outside are un-usually rich and extensive at Hope. The Cultural Affairs Committee and its chair-

m a n , Dr. D o u g l a s Neckers, a re to De com-mended for the time and effort they' have put into prepar ing the p rog ram.

Perhaps the proper solution would be to reduce the number of events scheduled and concentrate on obtaining only the best speakers, instead of some excellent and some only good ones. This would pro-mote more student interest.

U T A C O N C U R R E N T SOLUTION would be to have more use made of the visitors who are brought to

the campus th rough this p r o g r a m , not only by the student body, but also by the faculty If the cultural p r o g r a m s a re in fact a part of our education, the lecturers and per formers who come here could be put to use in theclassroom and l abora to ry , not just the audi tor ium. In this way, the Cultural Affairs p r o g r a m could really aid in the furthering of a student's liberal education.

Readers Speak Out

Dear Editor . Regarding the letters appear ing in last

week's anchor responding to mv letter in the Nov. 3 issue, I offer the following com-ments.

Does Mr. Barlow advocate this method of protest as " the" method of "following our countrv 's most basic tradit ions?"

Call a spade a spade. Miss Green Whaf kind of "men" are your "live demon-strators?"

Thank you, Mr. Ronda, for the im-pressive a r ray of wit and humor which you so graciously displayed with respect to my letter. Perhaps you will be able to call a' decisive end to the Vietnamese situation with such superb weapons. Obviously my "simplistic beliefs" are too unsophisticated for you to comprehend, but thanks for trying.

Al Wildschut

In reply to Ail Wildscnut's letter of last week. We acknowledge his right as a citizen of this country to criticize the action of these ten people, but he should acknowledge their right to their criticism of the nat ional government 's policy.

We have found a vagueness in his arguments which impress upon us the need for clarification. In his question, "Do you regard democracy so lightly that a well regimented communist country would fit you better?", is he implying by this that these people should join the Viet Cong? Also, the question comes to mind, Is there Inherent in dissent a desire to leave the country or change it abrupt ly?

His second question, "What have you done for your country to deserve thh share?" Have you fought for its independ-ence? How about World War I or II?" This Is a rhetorical question, the answer of which Is obvious.

The right to dissent is one of the basic tenets of democracy. " B u y then, perhaps you like and enjoy the freedoms you have here which you wouldn't have somewhere else." Dissent is one of theml

Mr. Wildschut's s tatement ," If you don't like the way this conflict Is being handled, perhaps it would be to your advan tage to join a different t eam," is qualified by his explicit statement that " n o b o d y is forc-ing you to stay in this country ." To In-terpret this, it reads: If you don' t like it, leave!

If Mr. Wildflchut feels he has to defend

his argument by using such a principle it exhibits both naivity in his argument and the reaching of a low point in his defense. In his efforts to confront this pro-blem, Mr. Wildschut has been unrealistic in that he has tried to interpret this com-plex situation in terms of black-and-white. This is evident in his treatment of one of his dominant themes, Le. "If you don't like the way this conflict is being handled, perhaps it would be to your advantage to join a different team. Nobody forcing you to stay in this country."

In an column analvzim? the "if you don't Tike It, leave" defense of compulsory chapel, Gordy Kors tangewrote ,"Inherent-ly the phrase implies that the object being defended is so integral a part of the college that to be in favor of a change is a re-pudiat ion of the entire f ramework ." In the context of our present argument we sug-gest "gove rnmen t" as a substitution for "college".

Charles Lang

1 must strongly disagree with the edi-torial position of suDoort expressed some weeks ago for the btudent Senate chapel proposal . My opposition Is less concerned with the content of the four-point p roposa l than It Is with Its timing.

The faculty clearly defined its position last spring when it not only overwhelm-ingly defeated the proposed RLC alterna-tive, but also voted 2:1 in a "s t raw vote" in support of the principle of compulsory chapel. In June, the Trustees of the Col-lege ratified this decision. All this was, of course, surrounded by exhaustive discuss-ion by much of the student body Itself. However disappointed one might be about the continuance of required chapel, a de-cision was legitimately made, and unless the Senate sees a change In circumstances of which the rest of the campus is unaware, their re-opening of the issue is certainly un-justified.

Further , it would seem to me that our obsession with the chapel controversy is a real indictment of our scope of concern. Sure, there's " a principle" involved, but it's ha rd ly one of cosmic sTgnfficance. If would be encouraging to see the Senate— and the anchor—and the students r.f H o p e -move beyond the chapel question to more important and timely issues. • .

Hughes for President

1 was walking by a nearby store the other day when I saw a large sign in the window--" Howard Hughes for President-Campaign Headquar te rs . "

Natural ly I was intrigued and went in-side.

There was a man sitting at a card table who said he was cha i rman of the campaign and he invited me to sit down.

" I didn't know Howard Hughes was running for President," I said.

" H E DOESN'T KNOW it either," the cha i rman said. "We're running him with-out his permission."

"But why Howard Hughes?" "Because he's the best m a n for the

job. He's just bought Las Vegas, which is only a prelude to his buying the state of Nevada. He's got a bigger financial stake in this country than any other man , so he won't let it go down the d ra in . "

"That makes sense," I said. "But doesn't Hughes like to stay out of the limelight? I understand no one has seen him for nine years . "

" T H A T ' S IN HIS favor. He is sole candidate mentioned who Is not suffering f rom overexposure ofi television."

"Good point ," I admitted. "But why else would he make a good President?"

"He ' s the only one in this country who would never have to go up to Congress and ask for money. Any funds he wanted for his Administration he'd put up him-self."

Is he that rich?" "What he couldn' t put up himself, he

could get f rom Frank S ina t r a . " " I forgot about that. But even if he

could finance the cost of the entire govern-ment, it seems to me the people would like to see their President once in a while."

" T H A T ' S WHERE Y O U ' R E wrong. The trouble with Americans is that they

see too much of their Presidents. They know everything that's going on in the White House f rom the Blue Room to the bedroom. Hughes would add mystery to the Presidency. He'd be holed up on the top floor of the Executive Mansion, and nobody would even know if he was there or not."

"But how could he deliver his State of the Union message?" I asked.

" H e could slip it under the door.

"Okay, that 's fine as fa r as Americans are concerned, but what happens when v foreign head of state comes to Washington Hughes would have to see h im."

"Hughes would meet him at 3 o'clock in the morn ing on a da rk street corner. Don't you see what this would mean for foreign relations? No country would ever be sure where the President was, or even if there was a President. It would put the fear of God in the Russians and the Red Chi nese. I believe one of the reasons President Johnson is having so much trouble is that he keeps saying that he's willing to meet with them any time, anywhere. They know he's always there, so they're not in a hurry to see him.

"But with Hughes they'd never be sure if they could see him or not ."

" O F COURSE," I said excitedly. "They 'd be pounding on his door trying to see him."

"Yes, but they wouldn't know which door, would they?"

"1 must say you put up a very con-vincing a rgument for H o w a r d Hughes ' candidacy. Have you been in touch with him?"

"Only through Jean Dixon."

P & M 'Armsand the Man Editor 's N o t e This week's critique, written by Bruce Ronda , is a review of the Palette and Masque product ion of George Ber-nard Shaw's " A r m s and the Man ."

By Bruce Ronda ancno r Critiques Editor

Having read " A r m s and the Man" jusi prior to seeing it, I suppose it could be charged that I biased myself with presupposi-tions about characterizat ion and scenery. I suppose I could charge right back that the performance fulfilled every expectation and then some.

But the cast, wasn't acting ac-cording to my notions, and a good thing, too: I suspect Shaw would have enjoyed this product ion im-mensely. 1 did.

T H E PLAY BRIEFL Y, deals with the destruction ot romantic illusions about love and war en-tertained by late nineteenth cen-tury Europe. Explicit references to Byron and Pushkin a r e 'made quite deliberately at the p lay ' s opening, and the grandiose pos-turing of Sergius, played well by John Lucius, made the targets for Shaw's wit unmistakeable.

The notions of the glory of war are deflated earlier than those held by starry-eyed lovers, but the effect is the same: Shaw reveals the all- too-human motivations of security and comfort, and the somewhat less than grand sexual passion which underlie most hu-m a n activity.

The uncurtained stage is s o m e what startling, but the mood of romanticism is set immediately by

the scenery on stage. The scenery throughout was simple and effec-tive, al though the rickety lattice in the first act and the unstable pillars in the second left me a little uneasy about the possibility of unscheduled dramatics .

T H E E N T R A N C E OF Cath-erine and Raina Petkoff, played by Bonnie Everts and Deborah Noe, was too rushed to allow the contrast between the romant ic scenery and the realistic cannon-ade to take effect.

The eye make-up on both Miss Everts and Miss Noe was over-done, as was the delivery of some of Miss Evert's initial lines. But both actresses established their characters immediately, and spe-cial kudos go to Miss Noe, who swept into the opening scenes with real s tage presence and nearly faultless delivery.

Not quite the s ame can be said of Robert Kieft, who played Cap-tain Bluntschli, but Kieft nonethe-less well portrayed the gentle cyn-icism of an experienced pro-fessional soldier. The most en-tertaining scene in the first act, that of Raina ' s description of Bul-garian social climbing, could have been more effective had Kieft been more ironic in countering the Petkoff pretension.

T H E SPARKLE OF the per formance was carried on even during intermissions, in which appropriately costumed servants changed scenery. The stage antics during intermission bordered on the cute at limes, but altogether it was an effective technique.

Act two begins with a "down-stairs plot" conversat ion between Raina 's servant , Louka and the house servant , Nicola, played by Danny Williams and Joe Favale , Again, it was an effective and well-timed exchange, with some diffi-culties in distinct articulation on Fava le ' s par t . The remainder of the cast a p p e a r s on stage dur ing this act, including the p o m p o u s but self-aware Major Petkoff, play-ed by Dennis Jones, and John Lucius' Sergius.

Lucius' poses were delightful; absolutely no lines need havebeen spoken for Lucius to deflate the Byronic hero with an appropr ia te and ludicrous pose. However, lines were needed, and not with sufficient vocal power and depend-able memorizing on Lucius' part .

T H E T H I R D ACT wasthebest timed and contained the most memorable lines, including Ser-gius' "Every th ing I think is mock-ed by everything 1 d o " - certain-ly Shaw at his aphoristic best. There was a little too much of Kleft's back being presented to the audience dur ing this act. Stage propriety had nothing to do with it: Kieft's profile and gestures fit his character as well as Lucius' did his, and 1 would like to have seen more of them dur ing this act.

Altogether it was a bright, en-tertaining play, well costumed, well-timed, the characters well-drawn, the lines for the most part well-delivered, and the inevitable Shavian deflation of impossible ideals por t rayed most effectively--a play well worth attending and enjoying.

The Sandbox

All-Campus Pass-Fail By John Niva la

Surprise, surprise. Finally, some long awaited changes in our academic structure have b e come partial reality in what ap-pears to be record time-nine months. (It is consoling to note that the birth of new ideas follows the tradit ional gestation patterns.) Hope College has decided to keep step with the scholastic world by instituting a pass-fail system, al-though our version has more re-c t nct ions thantheMosaic law. Per-

• "•0 ^ i t fht be able haps some uay .> ~. to extend this system beyond tne realm of course work.

For instance, some students are forced to eat at Slaters. Wouldn't it be an improvement if those people could evaluate the food on a simple pass-fail criteria instead of the usual g radua t ions such as inedible, horrible, deserving of condemnation, or barely pala-table? Wouldn't it be helpful when you got to the end of the line and discovered that you couldn't cut the mustard , to be able to scream " F a i l " until they changed it? It's worth a try. Whatever you are screaming now does not seem to be effecting any changes.

It would also be beneficial to br ing the pass-fail system into the c lassroom for t h e p u r p o s e o f g r a d -ing teachers. F o r some reason, we are not allowed to classify them on the basis of their technique, material or enthusiasm. Why not

introduce a system of classifica-tion based on the clothes they wear. If the professor waltzed into the lecture wearing a powder blue wool sports coat, a fuscia colored button down shirt, a puce spotted silk tie, and a pair of off-green cord slacks, the class could greet him with a chorus of " F a i l " and send him out of the room until he changed for the better. Insome small way, this would achieve a measure of c lassroom improve-ment.

" — ^ ^ i s t e n t problem that Anomci r - --m he the

could be cleared up wouiv. -chapel controversy. A pass-fail system would help to eliminate the burden of conscience b y p u r i f y i n g the atmosphere. Another commit-tee could be formed consisting of eighteen Reformed Church min-isters, a professor from Calvin, a fundamenta l l a y m a n and a repre-sentative f rom the D.A. R. This group could ex amine each student with regards to his religious con-victions and In other cognateflelds such as patriotism background.

Those people who exhibited a deficiency in any of these areas would be bar red f rom attending chapel services. They would also be marked in somedis t inguishing fashion such as having a giant " F " burned into their forehead with a hot chalice. These unre-generates would then h a v e t o r a k e

leaves into the gutter, seed lawns, or some other useful task until they Saw the light. When this hap-pened, it would be easy to change that " F " into a " P " .

In a secondary area, the Senate could erect a College Agency for Dating. Every weekend, there are many people who sit in their rooms because they do not know who to ask out. Well, these tim-orous souls could go to the C. A. D., state their dat ing preferences in such liberal areas as dancing, smoking and roller skating, and the agency would find this person a partner. Everyonecouldbeeval -uated on the basis of past per-formances. In light of the indi-v idua l^ picference, dates would be graded on a system of pass, fall, or unknown quantity. Such a knowledge would help to ease the tensions, fears and that queasy feeling as Saturday night approaches. Also, this system would not endanger one's g.p.a. (Gratified Partner Average.)

ARMS AND T H E MAN—Major Petkoff (Denny Jones) and Ni-cola (Danny Williams) are shown in a scene f rom George Bernard Shaw's " A r m s and the Man." The play, which deals with the destruction ot romant ic illusions about love and war, was "well-timed, well costumed and well-delivered."

Review of the News

By Harold K a m m

Vietnam President Johnson, on the

flight deck of the aircraft car-rier Enterprise, called for peace in Vietnam and said he would be willing to meet the leaders of Hanoi if it would speed a settle-ment. In a day that started in Washington and ended aboard the Enterprise in San Diego, the President visited three military camps to deliver emotional tributes to the men fighting in Vietnam. In prais ing their gal-lantry, he also pleaded for na-tional unity and had words of unmis takable rebuke for those who "deba te the war from the comfort of some distant side-lines."

An article in the o rgan of the North Vietnamese Communist Party described as " v a g u e " President Johnson ' s offer to hold talks "on a neutral ship on a neutral sea ." The artick in the newspaper " N h a n Dan" said Johnson "brazenly claim-ed that ' the U.S. follows the dream of peace' " and criti-cized his recent visits to Amer-ican military bases as signs of increased escalation. Hanoi again urged an end to U.S. bombing raids and withdrawal of U.S. troops.

A helicopter explosion and crash into a_rice_paddy killed Marine Major General Bruno Hochmuth and all four men with him. The 56-year old Tex-an, who commanded the Third Marine Division, became the second U.S. general to die in the war.

Rebuilding Year Sees 2-6 Record for Hope Gridders

ENDRUN—Tom P d o n (11) carries the ball for a short gain in last Sa tu rday ' s g a m e against Ash-land. Hope ended its season with a 39-0 loss, closiner with a 2-6 record.

End Year on iJismal Note'

Ashland Trounces Dutch, 39-0 By Bob Vanderberg an rhor Sports Editor

The Ashland College Eagles, the nat ion 's twelfth-ranked small col-lege football team, scored 25 points in the final 16 minutes last Sa turday to wrap up a 39-0 victory over the Hope Flying Dutchmen.

Thus, the 1967 season closed on a dismal note for the Dutch, who finished the campaign with a 2-6 record. On the other hand, Ash-land closed out its season with a fine 8-0-1 mark .

T H E EAGLES totaled 259 ya rds rushing and 83 pass ing in the ra iny affair, while Hope man-aged to collect only 72 ya rds on the ground and 13 via the air route. Leading the Dutch was half-back Keith Abel, who r an for 45 yards in 16 carries.

Gary Frens, Hope 's junior quar terback, highlighted first quarter action witn punts of 75

and 50 yards . However, his next punt was blocked and returned to the Hope 12. Two plays later, quar te rback Mike Healy, who threw three touchdown passes in the contest, sprinted around end for seven y a r d s and the first of several Ashland touchdowns. The Ragles then marched 61 ya rds for a second TD with end Bill Seder g r abb ing a 13-yard aerial for the score,

HOPE'S D E F E N S E held the Eagles to a 14-0 lead unt iMate I n the third period, when halfback Jim Minnich raced 64 ya rds to paydir t and a 20-0 lead. Healy passed for two more TDs in the four th quar ter , hitting Seder with a 25-yard strike and halfback Dave Gray with a 44-yard bomb.

Ashland 's final touchdown was set up by a Hope fumble on the Dutchmen's own 3-yard line. Eagle hal fback Cliff Watson scored on a one-yard plunge to close the scoring.

Booters Finish Third Varsity

Season With An Even Record By Doug Nichols anchor Reporter

Hope's soccer team finished out its season last week exactly at the . 500 m ark, with a 5-5-1 record.

When you consider that this is the best record the vars i ty soccer p r o g r a m at Hope has had, it was a good season. When you con-sider that its victories were over fairly weak Albion, K a l a m a z o o Wabash and the like. It was not a very good season. When you con-sider that the booters lost by a total of three goals to Ear lham, Wheaton and Calvin, It was a tremendous season.

When you think about ho^ things could have turned out. It was a mediocre season. When you remember that this Is only Hope's third season of vars i ty competi-tion, you must be amazed at the team's caliber of play. But lasdy, when you remember that the kick-ers aga in spilt the series with Cal-vin, It was a season like all other seasons.

Highlights of the year must In-clude holding Ear lham, last year 's Mi l co-champlon a long with Wheaton, to a scoreless tie for four full quar te rs and then

losing in the hear tbreaking fifth, and the sound t rouncing of Hope's only two MiAA competitors, Ra l amazoo and Albion.

Hope 's chances look evenbettei next year. The only loss to th( front line will be Alan Griswold, who sparked the team I n j t s j a a t two gm'fes iDy sco r ing lwo goals. The team will miss his consistency and patented head shot.

The defense will have to find renlacements for Dave DeVelder, one oi H o p e s stalwarts tor three years, and Sy Nagel , the all-Im-por tant twelfth man . The rest of the team, led by high scorer Man-uel Cuba, will be returning.

If Coach Phillip Van i^yl can come up with a scoring punch to complement Cuba, retain the team's excellent defense, and Im-prove Itself technically with good workouts, the team could become a real threat In the 1968 Michi-gan-I l l inois-Indiana Conference.

were able to advance the ball past mid-field just one time dur ing the game. In f^.ct, the Dutch did not have a single first down in the en-tire first half, and managed to pick up only three in the whole game against the tough E a g k defense,

LEADING ALL ground-gain-ers in the g a m e was Ashland 's Minnich, who m a d e 161 ya rds in 22 carries for an average of 7 .3 yards per try.

The last time Hopefinished with only two wins in a season was in 1964, when the team was also 2-6. In 1965, the Dutch were 4-4, and last year they were3-4. Thus, in the last four seasons, Hope gridders have posted a record of 11 wins and 20 losses.

It figured to be a rebuilding year, and that 's just what it turned out to be, Hope College's football team, made up largely of fresh-men and sophomores , turned in a final record ot two wins and six losses.

For a while this season, espe-cially after the victory over Adrian, it looked as though the Dutchmen were one of the top two or three teams in theMlAA. But disaster struck at Olivet, and then came the unexpected, muddy loss to Kalamazoo.

T H E FOLLOWING W E E K , the iiope-Alblon clash was canceled, and last Sa turday in the season finale, the Dutch were beaten by Ashland College, 39-0.

A glance at the statistics makes that 2-6 record ha rd to believe. Hope had an edge on its oppo-nents in first downs, rushing yard-age, pass ing y a r d a g e and punt-ing. Also, Hope defenders picked off 18 aerials, while only 14 Hope passes were intercepted.

Quarterback Gary Frens com-pleted 55 of 141 passes for 535 ya rds and four touchdowns, and senior halfback Keith Abel gained 645 yards with 179 carries for an average of 3.6 ya rds per car ry . Frens was second in rushing with 302 in 109 tries. Senior fullback F r a n k Lundell finished third by rushing for 187 yards in 54 attempts.

r . i M D h l U C H E R A N K and Tom Felon were Frens ' favori te targets this season, each catching 14 pass-es. F rank gained 147 ya rds via the air and Pelon 131. Frens aver-aged 35.1 yards a punt, and Wal-ter Reed had 13.1 punt return average to lead the team

Frens and Abel each scored five TDs and both r an for extra points for a total of 32 tallies apiece. This accounted for 64 of Hope's total of 92 points. Hope's oppo-nents scored 154.

Harriers Finish in Tie For League Third Place

The HopeCol legecross-country team elbsed its season by com-peting in the nat ional cross coun-try meet last week at which there were 321 runners .

The competition was tough as Cal Osterhaven was the first to cross the finish line for Hope, placing 206th. Rick Bruggers had shin splints but still competed along with Paul Har tman , Dick Bisson, Wayne Meerman and Rudy Howard .

Hope tied for third place in the MIAA standings. They won two duel meets and placed fifth in the league meet. Last year Hope was second in the league.

Coach Glenn Van Wieren said that this was the finest Hope team he has ever seen. However, hesa id the league was also the best he has ever seen.

Bruggers won five and lost on-ly one in league competition. He aiso set a new record at Hope with a time of 20:27.5, b reak ing Doug F o r m s m a ' s record of 20:40 set last year.

Hope will miss three top seniors next year in Har tman , Meerman and Osterhaven. They were the heart of the team according to Van Wrieren.

The last two years, Hope has a record of five wins, ten losses, and two snow-outs. Despitethe2-6 record this season, the fu ture iooks very bright.

T H E E N T I R E D E F E N S I V E line, made up of ends Tom Tho-mas, Ted Rycenga and Bruce Heustis, and tacKies tveitn Van Tubergen and Bart Merkle, will be back next year unless ineligi-bility strikes. The same holds true with the regular l inebackers, jun-ior Jim Hosta and f reshmen Bill Leismer and Howie Davidsmeyer.

Although losing safeties Dick Holman and Ken Feit th rough gradua t ion . Coach Russ DeVette vill have Haro ld Workman , Reed and Groy Kaper back as experi-enced defensive backs.

Where Coach DeVette m a y have problems is with the offense. Run-ning backs Abel and LundelJ will be gone, as will be g u a r d s Mark Menning and Steve Piersma and ends Pelon and Ray Cooper. How-ever, Frens will return to run the attack, with Reed, H a r r y Rumohr , and Dick Bqnt back to tote th( pigskin, and F r a n k and f reshman John Reed to catch it.
