Editorials

Where Is The Whole? The whole is the sum of its parts; the more parts,

the better the whole. At least, this is what our society seems to say.

In the elementary school curriculum, the 3 R's are being supplemented by science, art, music, physical edu-cation, and foreign languages. Student organization is the rage, with committee work and group chairmen, for practice in democratic living. Scouts, music lessons, and Junior C. E. fill in spare time outside of school. Children are not working any harder — if they are working as hard, but educators are loading them with more and more "good" things to learn and do.

High school students find themselves in an even more confusing whirl of activity. After their elementary training in rushing from one thing to another, most are able to survive.

And they seem to have gone so much farther toward the goal of becoming well-rounded individuals. They have been exposed to history and science and home economics and literature and family problems. They have marched with the band, planned parties, and had experiences in the art of public persuasion in student council elections.

Not willing to let elementary or high schools take all the honors, we college students must have at least one club or course for every interest. When we have finished a year or period of our lives, we often say that this busy-ness was "fun" or "good experience," but according to common complaints, it doesn't seem that too many of us like the rush while we're in it.

The out-of-school world is no better. The listing of weekly activities in a church bulletin makes it seem that one could be busy on church work alone all week. Then there is responsibility for community charities, public education, and intelligent choice of public officials, not to mention the development of special interests, like music or bridge. Of course, there is also a sometimes meaningless but quite necessary job that may take up about 40 hours a week.

The question is: are the results worth all the ac-tivity? Does the total program cause us to be involved in life or does participating in many things keep us from being involved in anythng? Does everything we do con-tribute to a whole view and experience of life, or do our activities give us the frustrating feeling of being pulled in many conflicting directions ?

If in our culture, most people were lovers of great music and art and literature, if many "were personally, by their knowledge and interest, involved in government and foreign affairs, these kinds of things would be a part of our lives and we would not have to form clubs to further our interests in them. But this is not the case, and we keep grafting more and more on what we already have, and are unable to cut out anything. Contrary to the ex-pected results of our education, we do not become whole individuals because our many interests and activities are unrelated and do not become a meaningful part of our lives.

What, then, is the solution? Escape is impossible; adjustment to and acceptance of the conditions is hard. Reform? But how?

Social Program? Social program?. We have heard that phrase re-

peatedly over the past four years. We have had both sides of the argument brought to our attention and have been able to witness some progress in the development of a social life on Hope's campus. The Student Council has shown interest in this problem. The most significant ex-ample of its advance was the fine Homecoming dance which it sponsored this Fall.

But have we as yet obtained the caliber of social life desirable for a college of our size and standing? It must be realized that all of man must be educated—even social man.

The majority of social life must be carried on by the fraternities. This Fall the activities have been many and varied. There need be no complaints up to this point. However, now this will all end — Rushing is over. Fra-ternities are unable to afford such a program over the entire semester. But who takes the ball from here — No one!

The time has arrived when once again you must take your date to the Holland Theatre or no place at all. No longer are there any house parties where one can relax with entertainment and refreshments, having a general good time talking and getting to know your date. All this is over 'till next Fall when the fraternities can again shoulder the burden by themselves.

What is lacking with the other campus organiza-tions? Are they averse to such programs?

We have many opportunities to improve our social program at Hope. Let's not all sit back leaving it to the fraternities.

An Open Letter There has been much talk about the desirability of an Honor

Code on this campus. There are pro issues and there are con issues, but I feel that no one yet has hit on the main question to be asked those who are attempting to institute the system of voluntary honesty.

The question, as I see it, is not "Ought we to have an honor code?" but "Are we morally mature enough to have an honor code?"

The answer to this cannot very easily be given, but it can only be answered by examining our own, actual moral or immoral practices. Only by evolving a criterion of honesty from the actual moral facts can we say whether or not we ought to have such a code.

. These are the facts : 1) Over two-hundred tapes have been stolen from the language

laboratory since the beginning of this school year. 2) Wanton destruction of tapes and machines has necessitated

a weekly major overhaul of the lab. 3) The cartridges in the phonograph in the Kletz have been

replaced at least ten times this year because of the myster-ious disappearance of each preceding cartridge.

4) The booths for listening in the Music Building have been provided with locks to curb irresponsible handling of the records and the phonographs.

5) Books are being stolen daily f rom the library. 6) Ladders and sets have disappeared from the Drama De-

partment and rediscovered in f ra terni ty houses. 7) The radio station is at a loss to provide an effective control

system for curbing the burglary of records and parts . 8) Over $150.00 worth of material has been stolen from the

Music Building. 9) Boxes of school supplies have vanished from the Blue Key

bookstore. These are the moral facts. Let us draw a criterion f rom them. The criterion would be this: "In order to judge the advisa-

bility of having an honor code we must close our eyes to the actual facts and accept them as being par t of the moral make-up of col-lege students, and institute an honor code in spite of the dishon-esty which is occuring."

In other words, disregard the fac ts as irrelevant and force the Code through; basing it upon a belief that once the Honor Code is installed, these things will all disappear.

Do you agree with this? It seems logical, doesn't i t? —R.J.

(Editors Note: There seems to be some question about un-signed editorials. Here is the explanation given by the editorial board: if an editorial is printed unsigned it means it is ANCHOR policy; if it is signed it is the opinion of the individual. The edi-torial board feels an editorial can be read more objectively if the author 's initials are not included. This does not mean the board wants to hide the author's identity. Any member of the editorial board will be glad to say who wrote the editorials.)

Inquiring Reporter

What Now? This year as we sit in chapel,

we can no longer complain that

we are annoyed by the clicking

of the ticket-takers or tha t we

resent the fact tha t we are not

given opportunity to exercise

our f ree will. Yet, every morn-

ing it becomes increasingly easy

for the latecomer to find a seat

in the chapel . . . and increas-

ingly difficult fo r the chapel

choir to scrape together enough

members to m a k e singing

worthwhile. So it is evident

tha t while we have witnessed

many improvements in • the

chapel program, if the morning service is to be an effective par t of our college program, addi-tional changes must be made.

During the past week, with this idea in mind, we have asked several students on campus the question, "What do you think can be done to improve the chapel sys tem?" Natural ly, a few students, especially eager to be of assistance, s i m p l y laughed and said tha t the only improvement would be to elim-inate them entirely, but the ma-jority put thoughtful considera-tion into their answers, and have come up with some feasi-ble suggestions.

Probably the suggestion off-ered most frequently was that chapel be scheduled later in the morning, in light of the fact that many students do not have first hour classes, and it is par-ticularly difficult for those stu-dents who live off campus to feel moved to be here by 8:00, when they have no classes until 10:00. For those who object to having chapel at a later hour, possibly this program could be enacted d u r i n g al ternating months.

Have you ever walked into and really felt like you are en-tering church ? Probably not. This comment was made by sev-eral students who voiced the opinion that a reverent spirit during chapel is sadly lacking. They suggested tha t it be made the accepted practice fo r us to enter chapel as we would church — to bow in a silent prayer, and to refra in f rom any unnecessary laughing and talking.

At the same time it was brought to our attention tha t the parading of queen candi-dates, and the grand entrance of 'beatniks' and others weirdly arrayed changes the atmosphere f rom one of reverence to some-thing more nearly remeniscent of a circus.

Although the quality of the chapel service has been im-proved, there are still many people who would like to see more variety in the type of service. They suggested that there be more outside speakers, that two or more faculty mem-bers cooperate in one service, that there be more student leadership, that the choirs take over on more occassions, or at least change the Introit bi-week-ly instead of monthly.

In line with an improvement in the programs, it was suggest-ed that those who are to par-ticipate in the service announce their topics in advance in order to build student interest and to eliminate procrastination on the par t of the leaders.

Many improvements h a v e been made, but we ask ourselves "What now?" If we approach this problem in sincerity, tha t in itself may be more than half of the solution.

Social Sidelights

Rushing Comes to a Close SIGMA SIGMA

The long awaited formal initiation of the Sorosite pledges took place last Friday night in the Music Building audi-torium. Twenty-one pledges dressed in white became actives during the impressive ceremony. Each new active was given her pledge mom's sorority pin to wear for two weeks. The new members joined with the old (who were dressed in black) in the friendship circle to sing the traditional Sigma Sigma songs.

ALPHA GAMMA PHI "Cartoon Capers" was the theme of the Alpha-Phi Lit.

meeting last Friday night. To carry out the theme, Ruth Flickema presented a serious paper on the nature of cartoons and Gail Pennington gave a series of cartoons for the humor paper. Devotions were given by Nancy Grabinski.

CHI PHI SIGMA Last Friday's final rushing event, the Around the World

Party , proved to be the most colorful event of the Arcadian rushing season. The XOE House, decorated in many colors and scenes, was filled to overflowing by the colorfully-cos-tumed guests of the f ra terni ty .

Costume prize winners included John Fieldhouse and Marilyn Elzinga who dressed as an Arabian couple, while Marty Tucker won the prize in her Norwegian garb for the most original and authentic costume.

The men of Arcadia have issued bids during the week and are now preparing to welcome their new pledge class and fu tu re f ra terni ty brothers. This evening a literary and business meeting—including election of officers—will be held by the fraterni ty.

DELTA PHI Delphis and dates, s traight off the fa rm, tumbled off the

hay wagons into the Kiwanas f a r m house where they were welcomed and warmed by refreshments and a roaring fire. Mr. Graham of Slater Food Service demonstrated that "I t ' s fun to be hypnotized". By errie candlelight he practiced mass hypnosis and demonstrated the powers of suggestion. Tonight, the Delphis and the Cosmos will hold a joint meeting.

KAPPA BETA PHI In keeping with Armistice Day, a humor paper on

Custer's last stand was presented by P a t Kooiman and Marilyn Slot during the Dorian Sorority meeting. A serious paper given by Mary Whitlock gave us a better idea of what Armistice Day really means. Elected for the winter term were Gloria Linscott, President; Mary Whitlock, Vice"Prest Karen Waltman, Secretary, and Pa t Patterson, Treasurer.

PHI KAPPA ALPHA The traditional "French Pa r ty" held a t the house ended

the rushing season on a high note. Both actives and rushees and their dates enjoyed fun and entertainment in a French atmosphere. Candles burned low, tables were crowded, and everyone had their own ideas as to how a Frenchman would dress, but this all added to the atmosphere.

Midway through the evening, master of ceremonies, Paul Armstrong opened the floor show. Entertainment was pro-vided by Mike Magan and John Kieft plus "two young ladies"—Gerry Wolf and Dan Jacobs.

The Cosmos recently received a plaque honoring Cosmo-politans who have died in past wars. The g i f t was presented by William E. Welmers, a Cosmo alumnus.

SIGMA IOTA BETA Sibylline held a business and literary meeting on Nov.

11. Committee chairmen gave their reports, and Arlene Billin and Louise Zjawin were elected as co-chairmen of the winter fbrmal. It was decided tha t from now on the Sibs will hold the meeting on Friday at 6:45 instead of the previous 7:00

The Lit meeting, "Course of Study", proved to be very interesting. Marilyn De Witt gave the devotions. Carol Rattray presented a delightful humor paper the theme of which was procrastination and the mid-term exam. Donna Fisher gave a serious paper entitled "Tougher than a Term Paper". The girls who had become engaged within the past year were presented with roses.

KAPPA ETA NU Well, it 's all over now, the time of lavish parties and

coffee trying to influence the desirable freshmen. —Rushing a t Knickerbocker was highlighted by t h r e e e v e n t s . First there was the Playboy House Party. Unique decora-tions, entertainment, and dancing in the Knickskeller filled the fun-filled evening. Nancy Vander Kolk was selected as playmate of the party and was given a six foot felt pajama pab in the form of a playboy bunny. Dick Rooman was selected as playboy and was given a Kaywoodie imported briar campus pipe, the pipe being symbolic of every true playboy.

Second was the annual S tag Chow a t Van Raalte's Restaurant in Zeeland. Mr. John Graham, a professional hypnotist, provided an extremely interesting evening using the intriguing science of hypnosis to produce some "crazy-mixed up people".

Third and last was the "Gold Rush Par ty" . The Knick house walls almost burst. Beards, chorus girls, a melodrama, mines and shaf ts plus plenty of good food and brew topped off the evening.

Wa-el Karachy Heads Country's Top IRC

by Milton Nieuwsma What started 12 years ago on

this campus as a small organi-

zation formed to promote peace

t h r o u g h international under-

standing has grown into per-

haps the finest International Re-

lations Club in the nation.

Under the present leadership

of Wa-el Karachy, a 22-year-old senior from Amman, Jordan, the Hope College IRC has expanded its membership to 100 students and is now recognized as one of the most active IRCs on 600 col-lege and university campuses, in 50 states.

Karachy, who will graduate next June with a major in pol-itical science and history, is the first foreign student to become president of Hope's IRC since its formation immediately fol-lowing World War II.

Here Four Years

Wa-el came to this country four years ago, a f t e r hearing about it f rom his brother, Wal-eed, also a Hope senior, who first studied in England and then came over to tour the states.

Wa-el started Hope College with intentions of t ransferr ing to a university a f te r two years and pursuing a career in chem-ical e n g i n e e r i n g . He soon became interested in IRC and in his sophomore year became one of the club's more active mem-bers.

. "My. interest in LEG was the basic factor that m a d e me change my major," Wa-el ex-plained. "When I joined I saw the opportunity of serving my c o u n t r y in a diplomatic ca-pacity." Wa-el said he hopes eventually to get into the For-eign Service.

Military Family Wa-el's father . Col. Saleem

Karachy, comes from one of Jordan's prominent m i l i t a r y families and has worked closely with King Hussein on the coun-try 's affairs. The king also is a close fr iend of the Karachy family.

Besides his brother's family, Wa-el has American relatives in Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. The rest of his family remains in the Jordanian homeland.

Wa-el and the Hope College IRC received wide recognition last March when he appeared on a network television panel show while attending the Mid-west IRC Conference at De Paul University in Chicago.

Attends Many Conferences Wa-el also has attended IRC

conferences in Washington, D.C., Monterey, California, Harvard University and Principia College in Illinois. He plans to attend t w o m o r e conferences next spring a t Midland College in Nebraska and Michigan State University.

Dr. Fried, IRC faculty advisor at Hope, is serving on the Mid-west Executive Committee of the National IRC, and Justine Ann Dakin, Hope's IRC project chairman, is the secretary for the Midwest Conference.

In addition to its fall program consisting of nine meetings de-voted to a discussion of "United States Politics in World Focus," the local IRC also has sent stu-dents on scholarships to the Vienna Summer S c h o o l and sponsored foreign exchange stu-dents on Hope's campus.

DEAR LOIS:

Where are Your Manners?

Opus To Sponsor Creative Arts Contest

The Opus staff announced that

they will sponsor two contests

in the creative arts as par t of a

drive to encourage creative ac-tivity among Hope students.

The first contest will be in

creative writing and the second

will be in the arts. Two sets

of these contests will be spon-

sored each semester with a min-

imum prize of $5.00 for each

contest. •

Students are encouraged to submit all short stories, poems.

Dear Lois: There is a very apparent—at least to upperclassmen—lack of

dining etiquette on the part of the men this year. Would you say our youth are corrupted? Or is there a remote possibility that they haven't been told?

Steve Dear Steve, ^ ...

There is no excuse for the poor dining etiquette displayed by sketches, novels and essays for the men, and I must admit, women, too. They might remember w r i t i n g contest.

then piling them up for one or two bites, or serving oneself before the hostess. I hope this reminder is sufficient.

Dear Lois: I am a male Hope student who frequents the smoking lounge.

Often I sit with young ladies who smoke. My problem is: should I light their cigarettes every time they take out a fresh one, or should I let them light their own, or should I just light the cigar-ettes of one in particular?

Les A. Match Dear Les,

I t is only expected that a man light the cigarettes of the women sit t ing next to him with whom he is conversing directly. It is not expected, nor is it good manners to reach over anyone to light someone else's cigarette.

Dear Lois:

All p a i n t i n g s , sculptures, drawings, etc., are welcomed for the fine a r t s contest. The clos-ing date fo r this contest is also January 20 and all materials should be given directly to the Opus staff or the art depart-ment.

Since the Opus staff is in-eligible to submit materials the members of the staff feel tha t they will leave the way open for sincere creative endeavor on the part of those students who may otherwise be intimidated by

Frater Bob Reid was runner-up with 54. The Fra ters were the top offensive team, fol-lowed closely by the Arkies and C o s m o s , while the Cosmos copped defensive honors, allow-ing ony t h r e e touchdowns against them all season.

BE REALLY REFRESHED

As has been the custom for several seasons, the Dutchmen of Hope College trounced luck-less Olivet College 49-0 in the final MIAA clash of the season at Riverview Park last Satur-day.

Not only was it Mom and Dad's Day (and many saw their sons in action), but it was Hope Day, too, as the men of the Or-ange and Blue moved the pig-skin on the ground and in the air, showing a dazzling array of Paul Mack's quarterbacking abilities.

In the senior players' last game for their Alma Mater, the Hope College gridders held the upper hand from the opening kickoff, which Olivet fumbled to give the Dutchmen their first break. Ken Visser hit paydirt from the 4-yard line to give the Dutch a quick 6-0 lead. Good-rich's conversion attempt was wide.

Another Olivet fumble on the first play a f t e r the second kick-off gave Hope the ball on the Olivet 17. Two plays later a fast pass f r o m MIAA pass leader Mack to Jon Schoon sent the Dutch ahead 12-0. Neal Goodrich's conversion made it 13-0 with 8:29 yet to be played in the first quarter.

On the third kickoff, Olivet held the ball but was forced to kick af te r three plays failed to net the needed 10 yards. Hope took the ball on her own 33 yard line and marched to the Olivet 26 in four quick plays.

Another TD pass f rom Mack to S c h o o n was nullified by a backfield-in-motion penalty and set the ball on the 31. Hope lost the ball on the next play

but regained immediate pos-

session on another Olivet fum-

ble. J o h n Vandenburg carried

to the 17 and Ken Visser chalked

up his second TD on the next

play. Goodrich again added the

extra point to put Hope in a

commanding 20-0 lead a t the

end of the quarter. The second quarter saw more

evenly matched football as many of • H o p e ' s second-stringers matched the Olivet first team and as the fairy tale happenings came to a close. After the ball c h a n g e d h a n d s f o r the fifth time, the Dutch released a torrid series of Mack-to-Bult-man passes which netted 75 yards in three plays and left the Olivet backfield in a tizzy.

Again a Mack TD pass, this

time to Chuck Truby, was nulli-

fied by a backfield-in-motion

penalty but was quickly offset

on the next play as "Sharky"

Vander Woude crossed the goal

line and grabbed a short pass

f rom Mack. Af t e r the Good-

rich conversion the score stood at 27-0.

F o u r plays later the half ended, showing 10 of 11 passes completed by the Dutch with Mack accounting for 9 of them. Olivet, in the cellar position in the MIAA, had connected on only two of nine a t tempts for 20 yards—one tenth of Hope's passing yardage. H o p e had gained only 83 yards on the ground but it was ten times

Cross-Country Team Nosed Out, 27-29 In another close match, the

Hope College harriers dropped their last home meet here last Saturday, before a disappointed Mom and Dad's Day crowd of three. The Dutchmen, who have been poorly supported by Hope fans this year, gave the Olivet Comets a t ight battle all the way, and the race was decided in an exciting battle fo r fifth position.

Randy Mencken finished in

third place to lead the Orange and Blue, Glenn VanWieren took fourth place, Vem Sterks and Bruce Welmers settled for sixth and seventh place, while Ken Holleman placed ninth.

The season is not yet over for Coach Siedentop's charges; an MIAA run at Kalamazoo re-mains as the Anchor goes to press. The results of this, as well as a season recap, will ap-pear in next week's Anchor.

t h e i r opponent's eight-yard rushing effort.

Due to a personal foul against Hope just as the half ended, Olivet kicked off from the Hope 45. Vander Woude picked up the onside kick a t tempt on the 32 and returned to the 37. Seven plays later he dove over the defensive wall from the one yard line for Hope's fifth six-pointer. Another Goodrich kick made it 34-0.

The remainer of the quarter was comprised of a series of ball exchanges as neither team could gain much headway.

The final stanza touchdowns went to Steve Slagh and Paul Hyink. Slagh carried the ball five times in a row f rom the Olivet 47 into the end zone to add 6 to the tally. Goodrich's EP made it 41-0. Ten plays later (4 Olivet, 6 Hope), Hyink strolled into the end zone from the 15 for the seventh and final Hope TD. Bob Bonnett 's con-version at tempt was blocked and left the score at 47-0. Another fumbled kickoff in the Olivet end zone gave Hope a safety and two points for the final 49-0 margin. A punt, two fum-bles, another punt, a few scrim-mage plays, two pass intercep-tions and an attempted pass concluded the game.
