MISSION DRIVE SET Hope Donates To Church At Tapachula
Have you ever thought about
worsh ipp ing in a church without
doors, or w i n d o w s , o r without
pews, pulpit , or hymn books? The
church a t Tapachula in the south-
eas te rn pa r t of Mexico has none
of these n e c e s s i t i e s . Are we
wil l ing to help to improve this
condition ?
Once again it is t ime to con-
t i ibu te to the annual Hope YMCA-
VW CA Mission Drive. This year
the recipient will be the Chiapas
Mission in Mexico. Because of the
expansion of the mission a new
church has been par t ia l ly erected
in Tapachula , an a r ea of f a r m s and
coffee planta t ions .
In recent years the cost of build-
ing mate r ia l s has t r ipled. This in-
creased cost has caused the total
sum necessary for the construc-
tion of the church to rise f r o m
40,000 to 120,000 pesos. The people who live in the a r ea have con-
t r ibuted some money fo r the church
ana the Board of Domestic Mis-
sions has supplemented this with an additional $8,000. This money
could pay only for the cost of con-
s t ruc t ing the walls, roof, p las ter ,
and ceilings. Now the interior of the church is le f t to be completed.
Th is is where we can help. We
will contr ibute to this new chapel
the money necessary fo r the pews,
the pulpit f u r n i t u r e , and hymn books. The secre ta ry of the Board
of Domestic Missions of the Re-
fo rmed Church, the Reverend R. J .
Vanden Berg, will p r e s e n t this challenge to us a t a joint meet ing
of the Y's on December 2 and in
chapel on December 3.
As s tudents of a Chris t ian Col-
lege we should meet this challenge with open hear t s . We of ten ta lk
of our Chris t ian beliefs and princi-
ples. Now we have a chance to put our Chr is t ian i ty to work in the
fo rm of a c o n t r i b u t i o n to th is
"Chapel in Chiapas ." Our goal this yea r is $2,000. Is th i s too much
f o r us to give to the building of
Chr is t ' s K i n g d o m ? Can Chris t
count on ou r hands to do His work t o d a y ? He has no one but us.

ahead eager ly to the evening of December (I when they will appear
for the second t ime in th is young
season in a recital. Always a pop-
ular event when held at the Walsh
9th S t ree t Arena, the next round promises to be an even more pleas-

at five-thirty, followed a f t e r the

can ' t I ?
Th is year , by decision of the
council, each f r a t e r n i t y was al-lowed to bid up to 75 men. The d i f -
fe rence this y e a r was the fore ign s t u d e n t s must be included in the
75, which reduced the total num-ber by 5 men.
The Arcad ians , with 51 active members , could send out 24 bids, the Cosmos, with 31) active mem-

Gaspeer9 Yu Cite Election Views To Americans, elections are pretty well taken for granted
every four years. The campaigning, the mud-slinging, the "Ike" buttons were all par t of the favorite national pass-time. The ANCHOR wondered how all this impressed the foreign students on campus. These are the views of Mun-ther Gaspeer of Lebanon and David Yu of Hawaii.
Munther Gaspeer Impressed To watch the American girls "function" in the lounge of Durfee
at 11:58 p.m. fascinates a foreigner. Yet more fascinating and im-pressive than this is the process of electing a president.
America strikes me as a combination of a strange variety of people and thing's. An American, so I observed, can go through all the impli-cations of voting inspection, casts his ballot, and retires back to work, in the same easiness and confidence of an Englishman sipping his tea on a cold Sunday afternoon.
Before and on election day America is a mad-house. The process by which a president is elected in this country is indeed an exciting drama whose characters are the people, the press, the radio and TV sets. Election of president and vice-president is a story which begins in caucuses and dining halls, reaches its climax at the convention, and triumphantly ends on the first Wednesday af ter the first Monday
of November. It is symphonic music that starts with uproar and ex-citement, and ends with peace and harmony. This process is indeed impressive and congenial.
I was impressed by that which I saw at the conventions. There were the declarative and challenging slogan of the Democrats, "you never had it so good." And "do we want a change?" the complacent query of the Republicans. I saw the colorful banners and flags of party and candidates, and heard the fancy "old timers" and popular songs.
I was impressed by the excessive freedom of speech which the speakers enjoyed and eloquently expressed in abusing their opponents. I saw the speakers who became exhilarated when they were greeted with applause that resembled the roar of mighty breakers on a rock-bound coast. I was amused by the simplicity, brevity, and humor of Harry S. Truman when he mingled with the "folks," speaking their language without effort.
I was deeply moved by the voters' attitude who indifferently stood in long lines wait ing to receive their ballots and retire to the privacy of a booth to do the marking. I was particularly moved by the scores of incapacitated old men and women being assisted by election offi-cials in marking their ballots.
I keenly observed and enthusiastically watched democracy at work.
and then looked up toward Heaven and thanked God that the dream of the dark past has become the reality of the bright future. This dream of Madison, Adams, Hamilton, Jefferson, and scores of others, has been fulfilled through the faith, perseverance, and good will of this free and responsible nation.
Hawaii's David Yu
The recent National Elections were of twofold importance to me. First, as a Territory of the United States, the results would ulti-mately affect us as much as it would the individual states. The in-habitants of Hawaii are endowed with the rights of citizenship, but are denied the privilege to vote for the President. Second, it was a new and interesting experience for me to be able to view the election and the campaigning at close hand. The procedure was not un-familiar, as our own two house legislature is modeled af ter the state governments. The only difference is that our governor is appointed by the President rather than elected by the people.
In Hawaii, election time usually evokes a longing for statehood and the right to vote, however, it seems to me that during the 1952 elec-tions there were more significant problems in the forefront, particu-larly the problem of domestic affairs, the war and of foreign policy.
Page Two HOPE COLLEGE ANCHOR
Our Gifts What does the annual Mission Drive mean to you? Is it
simply an appeal for f u n d s to which you reluctantly con-t r ibute a small sum? Is it an un fa i r demand fo r financial sacrifice on the pa r t of the already hard-pressed college stu-dent? Should giving to missions be an obligation reserved fo r older people whom we consider well established? On the contrary, we who are at this very moment receiving the benefits of a Christ ian education should feel especially called upon to assist in extending these privileges to others.
In another week we shall be pausing to take stock of the year ' s blessings. In giving thanks, let us not dwell solely on the physical bounties we have received. In the approach-ing Chris tmas season, we should be especially mindful of the grea t g i f t God made of Himself, a debt we can never repay but which, nevertheless, demands our devotion and dedication. The Mission Drive challenges us with an oppor-tuni ty to express our love for God and fo r those of His children who are less fo r tuna te than we.
God, in His infinite love, has given us life, fai th , salva-tion, joy, and peace. Now let us feel the importance of giv-ing generously of our money, as well as our consecrated lives, fo r the work of His Kingdom, tha t others may come to know the blessed assurance tha t we possess through Jesus Christ , our Lord.
— Cathie Christie
Words Of Paul Church and missions — these words belong together.
Chris t ians need constantly to be reminded tha t we are mem-bers of one church. This church belongs to Christ and through his Holy Spiri t he causes it to grow. We a re the ins t ruments by which Christ carr ies on his work.
Church and missions — as members of the church we have no al ternat ive in our a t t i tude to the work of missions. We are a pa r t of tha t s t ream, Antioch, Paul, Barnabas . As we begin th inking of our mission drive fo r this year, we might remember the words of Paul to a young church. He wr i t e s : "Not because I desire a g i f t : but I desire f r u i t tha t may abound to your account."
— Lambert J . Ponstein
The Choice More than one hundred men have made highly significant
decisions this week — decisions which may prove to be the most impor tant in their college lives; fo r they have decided upon the f r a t e rn i t y of their choice. The next four years in college will be spent in fellowship with the par t icular group of each man 's choice, and in most instances the acquaint-ances made here will be the closest and endure the longest of any he will ever make.
" F r a t e r n i t y " means "brother ly relat ionship" in the plain-est sense of the word, and as the years go by many of the men will become truly like brothers to each other. Tha t ' s why it is so impor tant that every man make the correct choice. But it 's all over now; the important decisions have been made. Each man has made the vital choice. This choice between two or three different f ra te rn i t i e s may have been difficult, but now, "it is done." Each has gone his chosen way ; but all have made a common acquisition, and it is one of "responsibil i ty."
The f r a t e rn i t y is present on the campus, for a more signi-ficant purpose than merely to give its members a good t ime, although this will come naturally in the process. The f r a -terni ty ' s purpose is to build the character of the individual. Webster also includes in his definition of f r a t e rn i ty , "a body of men associated by a common bond of interest , especially of a religious character ." If the f r a t e r n i t y fulfills its pur -pose, its benefits can be munificent fo r its members. But you can only get out of the f ra te rn i ty , wha t you put into i t ; and here "responsibil i ty" comes into the picture. To take an active p a r t in f u r t h e r i n g the inner fellowship, and the out-ward value of your f r a te rn i ty , is now your personal duty.

Your S tuden t Council ha s re-cently been ve ry honored to wel-come Sahibzada Shah S h a r a f u n d -din Ahmad Far id i , otherwise known a s " S h a r a f , " t o o u r c a m p u s . Sharaf a citizen of Pakis tan , came to us in the in te res t of promot ing our W. S. S. F . drive. As a promi-nent leader in the movement to establish f reedom and independence in his country, he clearly realized the despera te need of educat ing the youth in order to form and maintain a peaceful f u t u r e . Be-cause he is so vitally interested in f u r t h e r i n g education th rough-out the world, he has accepted many speaking engagements which have taken him to many pa r t s of Europe and the United Sta tes . In his talk to Hope's s tudent body he pointed out how useful all con-tr ibutions were and gave us an idea how our money is spent . The fac t tha t u n i v e r s i t i e s have in-creased f rom two to five in number , medical schools f rom one to five, and engineer ing colleges f rom none to three in P a k i s t a n cer tainly proves to us tha t our money is going for a wor thy cause.
Hope's s tudents are urged to re-member this need when the World S t u d e n t S e r v i c e Fund drive is
launched next Spring.

Sociology Club Makes Future Plans
The Sociology club which meets t h e s e c o n d M o n d a y of e a c h month had as guest speaker in the October meet ing Miss Ann Willig who showed slides and related her experiences in a Puerto Rican work
camp. The November meeting" f ea tu red
Miss Mar tha Bird who is in cha rge of the orthopedic depar tmen t in Washington School. She classified the s tudents according to the i r disabilities and gave a brief r e sume of the day's routine. Miss Bird also discussed psychological and sociological a d j u s t m e n t of both paren ts and children under such
a program. These meet ings prove very in-
te res t ing to s tudents of psychology or sociology. Many s tudents have asked about the requirements f o r joining this club. According to the new const i tut ion, f reshmen intend-ing to m a j o r in p s y c h o l o g ' y or sociology of sophomores with six hours in e i the r or in combination are e l i g i b l e f o r m e m b e r s h i p . Juniors and seniors ma jo r ing in ei ther of these fields are encour-
aged to join. Fu ture meet ings of the club will
include a panel discussion of the possible job opportuni t ies in the fields of sociology and psychology, a movie of the calibre as last year ' s "Silent One," and many interes t -ing speakers . One of the more important activit ies of the club will be the annual field tr ip.
Musical Arts Our first meet ing s ta r ted off on
a high note in the fo rm of a Musi-cal Jamboree . We enjoyed com-munity s i n g i n g accompanied by Misc Holleman on the au to-harp , and then had a breathless t ime doing the Virginia reel.
At our second meet ing top billing was shared by a film about F r a n z Schubert and a t rombone quar t e t including L y l e V a n d e r Meulen, Dave Maat , Gordon Lehman, and J im Har r ing ton .
Under the invisible baton of our able pres ident . Fores t Van Oss, with his a ss i s t an t s vice-president Roziland Smi th and s e c r e t a r y -t reasure r Clarice Roozeboom, the coming year promises to be any-th ing but flat.

Sharaf recently spoke to the s tudent body in support of the World Student Service Fund. Here he is pictured with several Hope s tu-dents concerned with WSSF . Left to r i gh t : Shara f , Don Prentice, J i r ius Awais, Bruce Van Voorst, Ver la ine Siter, Guy Vander J a g t .
The following pa rag raphs are excerpts f rom a let ter which was sent to s tudents by Dr. Irwin J . Lubbers this fa l l :
Few people would deny tha t the world is now in a s ta te of tension and crisis, in an opposition of ideologies as well as nations. It is our duty as confirmed Chris t ians to assume an active par t in the conflict, and "to show fo r th (God's) praise, not only with our lips, but in our lives, and by giv-ing up ourselves" to His service. We feel tha t Hope College offers you a basis for such a dedication, and an opportuni ty fo r you to develop a ma ture a t t i tude toward si tuations tha t you will meet the res t of your life. But with this opportu-nity comes a responsibility, fo r " to whom much is given, much shall be required." Americans, in general, a re lucky people, and Christ ian American college students are among the most fo r tuna te people in the world. Theirs is not only the chance, but the obligation to introduce the world to an orderly, intelligent, and godly way of life.
Graduates f rom Hope College have always shown fine Christ ian character , and have taken leadership in many areas of activity, facts which a re a t r ibute to the spi r i t on our campus. Perhaps this spir i t arises f r o m the principles on which Hope College was founded in the past, our en-thus iasm and sincere convictions in the present, and our vision of the fu tu re . The key to this spir i t lies in the com-bination of worship, study, and ex t ra activities in a Chris-t ian atmosphere, or in other words, coordination of the spiri tual , mental, and physical components in every person. Now this key is in your hands.
The YWCA and YMCA play an influential and essential p a r t in our Christ ian a t t i tudes at Hope. We know tha t all s tudents will want to par t ic ipate in the p rograms of the Y's, not only fo r their own benefit, but also fo r the enrich-ment of other people's lives.
A Letter To
GI Alumni N o w h e a r t h i s ! F r o m t h e
c igare t te -c lu t te red floors of Van
Kaalte Hall comes this discourse
on the present male social l ife a t
Hope Univers i ty . Thany you Dr.
Kinsey. We have been living on
wine, women, and song — until the
Dean made us stop singing. Gosh,
I sure wish we fellows were old
enough to enlist like you guys did.
Doctor, I 'm ready to go now. There
was a recru i t ing officer on campus
the o ther day — he was so nice.
Ho blindfolded me and said, " W h a t
d<> you s e e ? " When I told him,
"noth ing ," he said, "Uncle Sam
Want s You." And he pointed his
big le f t toe a t me. I p rompt ly
presented him with a j igge r of
Amolin a n d a p a c k a g e of Dr. Scholl 's corn-paddies.
Nothing has changed since you
gradua ted . Do you remember t h a t
day? You should — it was also
your sixth wedding anniversa ry .
By the way, if you haven ' t paid
your f r a t e r n i t y dues, please do so
— we are hur t ing! Our new mas-
cots have turned o u ^ to be the
gold-digger type.
Our f r a t e r n i t y houses a re ge t -
t ing older and di r t ie r everyday.
We now have fleas. Of course,
you know how to ge t rid of fleas.
Take a ba th in sand and a rub-
dowr. wi th alcohol. The fleas ge t
drunk and kill each other th rowing
rocks.
Voorhees is loaded with women.
Van Vleck is loaded with women.
Durfee i s l o a d e d w i t h women.
T-Dorm is l o a d e d w i t h men —
tha t ' s one th ing they can ' t t ake
away f r o m us. Darn it. We still
have five f r a t e r n i t y houses — let 's
keep our fingers crossed.
Now your old Dad would like to
clue you on a l i t t le local color.
The old expressions a re still here
— maybe you can apply them. If
you are aboard the U.S.S. Sicily
and a mermaid should climb aboard
and ask you, " A r e y o u brown
f rom the s u n ? " Tell her, "No,
I 'm Buck Rogers f r o m the Moon."
If you a r e a t F o r t Breckenridge
and a mean old se rgean t should

This Year's Buckeyes To Be Remembered By Audio Route
Columbus, 0 . — (LP. ) — M e m o r i e s of the year 1953 on the Ohio S ta te Universi ty campus will be much more vivid th i r ty years hence to those who have a "Talking Makio." The Ohio S ta te yearbook Makio (meaning "magic m i r r o r " in Japanese) will this year be "wired fo r sound," the first college yearbook in the nat ion to t r y such an idea. In addi-tion to the conventional 650-page volume, Makio subscribers will ge t a bonus 7-inch 45 R P M
phonograph record on which the re
will be a special recording of high-lights of the 1952-53 school yea r . Heard on the record will be the live voices of those persons who figured impor tant ly in the year ' s main events on campus. Also to be f ea -tured will be exciting m o m e n t s f r o m outstanding football contests of the year as heard by radio lis-t ene rs ; high spots at the homecom-ing rally and homecoming dance — with a f ew bars of music by the
name band playing f o r the occa-sion. The Ohio S ta t e songs "Buck-eye Bat t le C ry" a n d " C a r m e n Ohio" will provide b a c k g r o u n d music f o r the record, and a na r -r a t o r will t ie it all together wi th app rop r i a t e comment.
The record will be produced by a
national commercial record com-pany on an unbreakable vinylite disc of the highest possible record-ing quality. It will fit into a special envelope-folder j u s t i n s i d e t h e yearbook's back cover.

Hope Crime And Punishment | | i Campus Kid Leads Life sa i l Of Sorrowful Intrigue • m h w i i i i • Campus — a six-letter word meaning, at a large univer-
sity, a group of buildings covering as much as a square half-mile. At Hope College the definition is modified by the majori ty of its attendants to the inclusion of one single, rather rectangular block. However, to a minority of our female collegiate population, the word "campus" has the somewhat singular connotation of a restricted sphere of in-fluence for a period of from one to two weeks.

Hope's rampaging Dutchmen all but clinched second place
in the MIAA race last Friday night by powering to a 6-0

The game was strictly a battle between two standout de-
fenses, with the Dutch putting up their best defensive effort of the year. ^
Hope, aided by a penalty, scored the game's lone touch-
down midway in the first quarter . With the ball on Alma's
28, fourth down and nine to go, fullback Dave Kempker f a d e d back a n d tossed a pass t h a t

History Of MIAA Boasts Early Start, Wide Fame
My K o n u l d l i o s
Follow the history of the United States back to the time
when the Allegheny Mountains were neglected as a boundary
to western expansion and cities began to spring up all
through the Middle West. With the culture from the East
came also the sport of football. As college teams were or-
ganized the various schools found the need for associations
to correlate competition. In answer to this need a few of
the colleges of Michigan formed the oldest athletic confer-ence west of the Allegheny Mountains, better known as the Michigan In te rco l l eg ia te Ath le t i c
Associa t ion o r the M I A A .
It was in 1888 t h a t de lega tes of
A d r i a n , Albion, and Hi l l sda le met

DUTCHMEN SECOND MIAA Leave Adrian In The Dust With 20-6 Final Score
Afte r a complete reversal of backfield personnel, Hope
roared through its last three games without defeat. As a
result of last Saturday's win over Adrian by the count of
20 to 6 Hope firmly established itself in second place in
the MIAA final standings.
Adrian, in the midst of an athletic rebuilding program,
gave a highly creditable showing in contrast to previous
years.

Optimism Prevails As Harriet Face Finale
After a resounding tr iumph over the Alma Scots, Coach Green's cross-country men are anticipating the MIAA final run which was to have been run on Wednesday, November 19 at Kalamazoo. Because this is the race which will deter-mine the standing of each team when it is time to tally up the all-sports' trophy points, it is vital that we make a good showing. Each individual race this year was in the nature of a warm-up for this final meet, but gives plenty of indi-ca t ion w h e r e t h e s t r e n g t h lies in
t he confe rence . The A d r i a n m e e t

In W e d n e s d a y ' s race , the r e s u l t s

Thoughts On Sports B y D a v i d H a a s
As the sun draws closer to the earth and the snows threaten to isolate the city of Holland the sport of football fades in a flight of evanescence. Yet all is not gone into the record books. There still remains the memory of glori-ous moments when the Hope College football team of 1952 have proved their ability to excel on the immortal gridiron. These are but a few of the highlights which have given all due cause for admirat ion:
1. The punting and running of the battered and bruised John Hamilton.
2. The underrated and impenetrable center of the Hope defensive line as seen in games against Beloit and Alma.
3. The spectacular open-field running of Dave Kempker and Frank Talarico in the Kalamazoo game, especially 61 yard run by Kempker at the opening of the second half.
4. The amazing ability of Don York to capably undertake the position of quarterback in the middle of the season.
5. The relentless work of John Newton who plays at the center of the offensive line, mostly obscured f rom the view of the spectators.
6. The sparkling defensive play and sporadic offensive running of safety-man Don "Zeke" Piersma, especially in the De Pauw game.
7. Many beautiful catches by end Paul Bos in the Beloit and Alma games.
8. Linebacker Jim VanHoeven's surprising touchdown resulting from a 30 yard return of an intercepted pass in the Kalamazoo game.
9. John Adam's 16 yard touchdown scamper in the Hills-dale game showing great potentiality as a f reshman.
10. The mastery of Bob Pr ins to secure points af ter touchdowns. In the 1951 season this phenomenal ability gave Hope quite a few victories. His field goal in the Kala-mazoo game was a perfect example of this ability.
11. The spectacular catch of a pass by Ken Bauman which set up one of the touchdowns in the Kalamazoo game. Bauman's height and huge hands proved valuable in gain-ing much yardage via the pass route in all games.
12. The sterling play of linebackers Ypma, Stapert , Nien-huis, Fischer and Van Hoven.
13. Joe Ypma's intercepted pass in the Adrian game which he took on the fifty yard line and carried to the end zone.
14. The energetic enthusiasm and cool concern of coaches Vanderbush and Weller.
15. However, without the support of players, reserves and coaches nothing of individual glory could ever be ac-complished.
