Sociology Department seeks two new profs.

April 11,1975

Recommendations cited

By the way, Hope's Department of Sociology is not being phased out, as the currently circulating rumor might have you believing.

IN FACT, THE department is actively seeking two new professors to replace Assistant Professor of Sociology Kenneth Sebens and Lecturer in Sociology Ruth VanKampen.

The possibility also exists that a consulting firm may be hired in the future to evaluate Hope's social work program with an eye toward possible accreditation of the program.

4t WE WANT TO strengthen the department," Provost David Marker said. "We have a lot of flexibility since so many professors are leaving.

The two persons being sought for the teaching positions will need to be knowledgeable in several areas of sociology or social work.

"ONE OF THE persons we're seeking will have to have his Ph.D. with his major field in social organization, an area we're deficient in," stated Dr. William McIntyre, chairman of the sociology department. "He should also be knowledgeable in social stratification."

Mclntyre explained that social stratification touches on such things as social inequalities. The new professor in this position would also need at least some knowledge of sociology of edUcation and religion, and social psychology, he added.

"WE'VE GOT several good candidates for this position," Mclntyre said.

The department's other vacancy is in the area of social-psychology. This vacancy will be difficult to fill, Mclntyre said, due to the many abilities and credentials the person must have.

"THE PERSON will have to have an MSW degree (Master of Social Work) as well as some practical social work experience," he said. "He'll have to have some experience in handling field placements and be able to teach as well." Mclntyre said that people with • MSW degrees are in great

VanLiere defines co-op housing by )ohn Scholten

Director of Student Residences Elaine Van Liere, presented a report from the task force on co-op housing to the Campus Life Board on Thursday, March 13. Task force members studied the feasibility of introducing a co-op housing concept on Hope's campus, particularly in the cottages and fraternity houses.

WORKING WITH Van Liere were students Paulette Tippy and John Scholten. The task force members define co-op housing as, "the process of students jointly assuming responsibility for simple up-keep chores of a particular living unit with a concurrent saving of money to the college and/ or the students involved."

Copies of the complete report are being distributed to the head residents and are available in the Dean of Students' Office for further study to any member of the college community. Also at the meeting the following recommendations of the task force were adopted by the Campus Life Board.

FIRST, in consultation with Associate Dean of Students Michael Gerrie, the decision was previously made to select resident assistants for the residence halls first, and make the decision on cottage staffing at a later date.

The committee recommended

ELAINE VANLIERE that priorities for cottage occupancy continue to be given to students of senior and junior standing, and that any group of seniors and juniors in a given cottage have the option to adopt the co-op housing concept if unanimously decided upon within the living unit.

SECOND, THEY decided that cottage residents be allowed to choose their own resident advisor.

PBB offers no threat to Saga meat quality

by Marjorie DeKam With the PBB scare reaching many parts of Michigan, people are wondering about the level of PBB in the meat, milk and poultryproducts they consume.

STUDENTS AT Hope haven't expressed concern about PBB in Saga food, according to the Director of Food Service Jess Newkirk, who said he hasn't faced any problems with PBB yet.

"Most Saga meat comes from Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska," he explained, "there are no distributors in Michigan that deal in the large volume that the food service needs, so the PBB problem hasn't affected Saga as yet," ONLY FIVE percent of Saga meat comes from Michigan distributors, Newkirk said, and hot dogs, for example, are made in Michigan but the pork comes from Wisconsin.

Milk and poultry products do

come from Michigan, but Newkirk said all products are inspected by state and federal authorities. Milk comes from Detroit, and eggs are bought from a distributor in Hudsonville." .

THE DANGER, Newkirk pointed out is not how much meat is being marketed now with PBB, since the state has established PBB levels which are considered safe. The future implications are of concern, he said, because when the waste is absorbed in the soil, PBB may even be showing up in fresh produce.

The PBB poisoning began in 1973 when the fire retardant chemical was mistakenly shipped by the Michigan Chemical Company to Farm Bureau Services and mixed in a feed supplement.

Quarantined cows, pigs and chickens and eggs have been destroyed by the feed company, but the repercussions of the PBB incident are still being investigated by the state.

liaison person or onter type agent to represent them to the Associate Dean and the Director of Student Residences; and, that the salaries of such persons be reduced.

Third, cottage residents would be allowed the option to choose a member or members of their living unit to do custodial and the simple maintenance chores for pay, rather than depend upon the maintenance staff.

FOURTH, in the \inlikely event an. excessive amount of requests are made from cottage residents to participate in the coop housing concept, the Associate Dean of Students and the Director of Student Residences reserves the right to limit the number of cottages in which the experiment can be tried. "The unlikely event" is based upon the fact that the task force sent out 150 questionnaires to poll student interest in co-op housing; only 21 were returned.

Van Liere said that if the residents prefer the conventional system we have had for the cottages in previous years, she and Gerrie will be willing to make the R.A. selection. However, this would differ in the sense that it would have to be a person already assigned to that cottage and the salary of that person would be reduced.

WHEN QUESTIONED further.

Van Liere stated that, "the benefits of the plan are that hopefully upperclass students would establish a greater sense of community through group sharing and group responsibility for the upkeep of their unit, that they would experience a sense of pride in their living unit from this type of identification, and that the money saved could be used in one of the several ways stated in the proposal. It could be used as saving to the college, returned for the improvement of the living unit, used to purchase something desired by the residents, such as a TV set or refrigerator, to reduce the cost of room fee or paid to the student(s) who do the work.

VAN LIERE AND Gerrie will be meeting with groups of students signed up for cottages after housing assignments are made, as consultants for their desired plan, but will also be glad to meet with any group of students interested in adopting one of the plans for a unit they are considering before housing assignments are made.

The hope is that the innovative plan will be mutually beneficial to 4he residents and the college. It grew out of a need to revise the cottage R.A. position because of the need for a different type of training program.

demand right now.

"We may try to obtain accreditation for our social work proK1"3"! after it is evaluated by the consultant and he makes recommendations," Mclntyre said. The Council on Social Work Education wil1 Iikel y b e t h e consulting firm, ASSISTANT Professor of Soci0 0 ^ 8y Dr. Howard lams would like t0 ?ee expansion of the Hope so cial work program to include instruction in group work and community organization. The pre8601 emphasis is on casework, or person-to-person, social work, he said.

"I think the curriculum is too narrowly drawn," lams said. "This prevents students from gaining knowledge of other areas of work available to them, such as group work, community organization. and administrative social work."

IAMS ALSO believes students in the social work program need more background in the social sciences, especially political science, sociology and economics.

"For someone planning to go into community organization, a background in these would be very important," he said. lams admits that a student studying casework would not need nearly as much social science as one in community organization but believes such students could benefit from more social science than they receive now.

"JOBS DO EXIST in social work," lams said, "but most require an MSW." About the only ones which don't, he said, are in the corrections casework field, and these are traditionally low paying because of tight budgets.

Mclntyre said he basically agreed with lams' ideas.

'We need to provide sufficient theoretical background for those going into community organization and group work," he said.

"We want4he department to provide a good background for grad school for our students."

Both men agreed there was a need to strengthen the academic sociology offerings in the department. lams hopes the department can develop an approach to the study of sociology which develops the ability to perform social research.

Frats recall requests, receive another chance

by John Scholten At a spring meeting of the Campus Life Board last year, the policy on fraternity housing was changed. Before the meeting, the policy was that any fraternity was required to fill 100 percent of two floors in the living unit and provide independents to fill the remainder of the house. . THE NEW policy, however, stated that the fraternity must provide for 100 percent occupancy of the house and at least 60 percent of those in the house must be members of that fraternity. — The Fraternal Society last year failed to reach their quota. However, the Campus Life Board decided to give the house to the Fraters for this present school year because they were only one member away from the residence requirement.

THIS YEAR, the Fraters felt that they could fulfill the requirement with approximately 30 to 31v members of their fraternity living in the house. But they had seven or eight members of their organization who were seniors and desired to live off campus next year.

Then the fraternity decided that it was in their best interest to try to find an alternate method of housing. The Fraters felt that perhaps they could opt for a cottage or even to try to' buy a house off campus.

THE FRATERS then went to Associate' Dean of Students Michael Gerrie with .their request to buy a house off campus. He told them, "That's not a decision that I can just make overnight.

That has to go through the Campus Life Board," The Fraters went to the Campus Life Board with their proposal to buy an. off campus house. The CLB told them that this was a matter that would have to be studied in great depth because there were numerous legal ramifications for the college. CLB also felt that this study wpuld take at least a year.

CRISPELL or Taylor cottage were then considered by the fraternity as a viable option for next year's housing. After the Fraters had expressed an interest in a cottage, the Centurian Fraternity also expressed a similar interest.

In light of these requests, many independent students became alarmed. Many asked the question, "Why should the best housing on campus go to the fraternities?" The Centurian fraternity has since withdrawn their request for a cottage and so has the Fraternal Society.

Currently, the Fraters are committed to filling their quota to retain their house. Gerrie said, "For next year, they want to try and fill their quota requirement and remain in the Frater House.

As long as they can do that, as far as I'm concerned, it's their house again."

On April 19,1775, Americans showed that they had had enough. On the small bridge at Concord Massachusetts, the Minutemen made their stand against the Redcoats. Thousands of working people and small farmers put King George III and his wealthy Tory friends on notice.

"The Shots Heard Round the World."

Two hundred years later, the Peoples Bicentennial Commission will commemorate the spirit of the patriots who made that stand at Concord Bridge.

And we'll be taking on the Tories and Redcoats of our own day.

Student researches drinking in dormitories In the following essay Larry Evans examines the questions of oncampus drinking. His data is based on the responses of nearly 100 students he interviewed.

Have you ever had a friendly ice cold mug of beer with the boys while watching the game on TV, or a romantic glass of wine with your date before the dance in the privacy of your room?

Sounds harmless and attractive, doesn't it? Nonetheless, it is against Hope College regulations.

DO WE need a rule change, or should we simply ignore the existing one? What ^are the possible advantages and disadvantages of changing campus policy from nondrinking to permissive drinking in the privacy of one's room?

"Why do we need a rule change when drinking is taking place in student housing all over campus now?" Ironically, this question serves as a reason for needing a change of policy.

FIVE OUT of six students

Michel's art work to be exhibited in G.R. museum A one-man exhibition of recent paintings by Delbert Michel, professor of art and chairman of the department, opened Sunday, April 6, at the Grand Rapids Art Museum.

The exhibition, which contains 12 of Michel's recent paintings, will be on display through April 27.

College buys McComb s art Bruce McCombs, assistant professor of art, recently had an etching entitled "Albatros 11" purchased for the permanent collection of Minot State College, North Dakota.

He also had work included in the tenth National Print and Drawing Exhibition sponsored by the Dulin College of Art, Nashville, Tenn., and for the ninth consecutive year was represented in the Oklahoma Art Center National Exhibition of Prints and Drawings.

claim that the non-drinking regulation is not enforced by the R.A.'s in their campus quarters. Of the few who feel that the regulation is enforced, many insist it isn't administered as rigidly as it ought to be.

Therefore, why should a minority of students be penalized for what the majority is getting away with?

ADDITIONALLY, most people indicate that R.A.s are justified in not upholding the nondrinking regulation. ^It's too much of a hassle to attempt enforcement of this law; besides R.A.s have more important things to d o , " is the general reaction.

Also, "If people want to drink, they'll do it in one way or another. The only means of effective enforcement would be a thorough dorm search." In any case, a change in the present college drinking policy would certainly take the pressure off R.A.'s, as well as students.

FURTHERMORE, since this law is generally not enforced, it is meaningless. What good are quasirules? They surely do nothing for the integrity of Hope College. Do we want our college to be an example of "institutional hypocrisy?"

I cannot accept the observation a student made that, "we must keep our present law in order to prohibit drinking from getting out of hand." This is the so-called "55 MPH T h e o r y " - m a k e the speed limit 55 so that people will go 60.

EXISTENCE of the present insignificant regulation is doing nothing more to restrain drinking than a rule that would legalize drinking only in the privacy of your room. ' In addition, I believe that permitting drinking in our rooms would cause a more beneficial atmosphere, one of trust and responsibility rather than mere law enforcement.

SEVERAL students have made the remark that "legalizing drinking might create an undesirable image for Hope.'^ I think Jim Beran, the president of our Student Congress and a three year R.A. answers this observation best by concluding, "If the stability of our college image rests upon whether people drink in the privacy of their rooms, we have no foundation whatsoever."

"Shouldn't Hope, a Christian college, have some regulations to distinguish it from other colleges?" I say yes, of course, but is drinking against Christian ideals, and is this the only regulation that differentiates Hope from a nonChristian college?

EVEN IF drinking were considered a sin, a liberal arts college should not be "shoving Christian principles down our throats." The goal of a liberal arts college should be to create responsible people, not to rule followers.

Most students, along with the state of Michigan, believe that at the "age of majority" they are mature enough to handle the freedom of choice pertaining to drinking.

As adults we realize "alcohol and studying don't mix;" besides, we have the right to do what we may with our leisure time.

"WHAT ABOUT the obvious problem that would accompany the freedom of drinking in the rooms, that is, people who are drinking and interrupting the studies of others?" Those students

who thought this new policy would not hinder their studies number seventy-six, while thirty said it would be detrimental to academic pursuits, and seven didn't know.

I must point out, however, most of those thirty felt the new policy would affect other students, but not their personal studies.

CERTAINLY, legalized drinking in campus housing will not be a deterrent to college rowdyism, but the fact remains, there is drinking in the privacy of one's own room now, and there have been no particular problems with vandals.

The new regulation would also make it easier to drink; but, again, other colleges (Aquina, for example) have recently adopted this free policy and have not experienced any difficulties. Nevertheless, if rowdyness does occur, we have R.A.'s who can reason with the culprits.

IT IS fashionable for students to believe that the administration could not permit a pro-drinking

policy change, because of the fear of losing the financial support of anti-alcohol sponsors; for example, the Reforemed Church and certain alumni.

However, for the most part, benefactors have greater worries over the rumors that give them the image of "Boogie Men" rather than a policy change to permit campus drinking. Most high church officials do not care about which policy Hope adopts one way or the other.

IN ANY case, there is actually little financial aid coming from the Reformed Church (approximately four percent). Unquestionably, there is a danger of losing donations by simply changing a regulation, but the loss would have little significance to the school's budget.

Finally., as a student, I feel that I pay for my privacy. A man's room is his castle. The existing non-drinking policy is unequivocally outdated. Hope students, catch up with the 20th century.

Only you can change this college policy.

Community Gardens provide place to grow The following is written by Rich Williams, director of the Holland Food Co-op.

In times of war in conjunction with economic recession the victory gardens rose all over the country. But since the development of the green revolution and rapid transit in the last two decades, our country has lost interest in small backyard gardens.

INSTEAD OF using land productively Americans have developed expensive tastes for rich grass carpets, more recently rock gardens and for the elite oriental landscapes.

With the recent economic recession and the inflation of food costs, families either forego high priced fruits and vegetables or trek the backroads in farming counties. buying bushels of anything available and canning madly.

There is now a third alternativegrow your own.

IF YOU don't have enough space, or the area you own is not the right type of land for growing your own victory garden, there is still hope. Across the country a movement called community gardens is being developed in cities and towns with available land.

The catalyst for Holland Community Gardens has been Mary Rhienholt who works with the Cooperative Extension Service here in Michigan. As a resource person, Mary helped to establish the executive committee and the structure of the Gardens. She has provided numerous sources and contacts to obtain land and a number of other services.

SINCE THE goals of Holland Community Gardens are to provide gardening experiences at a nominal charge, almost everything that is provided is donated by organizations, businesses and peo'ple in the Holland area.

Land, waterpumps, fertilizer, manure, wood, tires for planters and fencing, all have been donated or installed for a small charge.

THE STAFF of community gardens consists of President A1 Smith, who is involved in a number of community activities such as the food co-op and has grown a garden organically for a few years; Treasurer Jim Taylor, who works in Holland and whose wife is a Hope student; garden coordinator Rich Williams, who has grown

gardens for a number of years; and Harold Knoll, who is an instructor in Holland and has farmed the area.

Now that the major structural and contact work is done, the main problem is education. Many members of Community Gardens have either forgotten how or never have grown their own gardens. The green thumb is not enough to grow a healthy and large yield crop of vegetables.

RICHARD WILLIAMS

HAVING already taken soil tests, part of the fee for membership will be used for adding nutrients to the soil. What the individual gardeners will need to know are such things as the time for planting different types of seeds and bedded plants, the arrangement of the plants and proper care for them in the following months through harvest.

The cooperative, service in Michigan as well as individual contributors will have bulletins and workshops on growing plants and gardens procedures. Community Gardens is incorporating itself which means the gardens will be open for many years t o come.

With more interested people, the gardens will be able to expand and provide ^nore people in the Holland Community area with a cheap and fun source of fresh fruits and vegetables for their table.

The messianic generation As noted by all American newsmen and Americans themselves the world within the past few weeks has greatly changed, creating an unrest and turmoil that has not been with us since the late fifties. Yet, the strife appears to still be quite distant from most of our lives. We are in Holland, anxious for our summer to come and rescue us from plight at Hope College, however for many there shall be no more summers.

While we all baked in the southern sun perhaps every now and then we caught the television broadcasts of the plight of the Southeast Asian people. We were shown the rows and piles of the dying. The dead rows of young, some not yet at the age to walk, lay before us naked, sUring blankly.

Wc, of course, then returned to the sun or decided to hit the night life with the rest of the thousands of college students.

At one lime we were the messianic generation. Well, we know now that was a bit hopeful on many people's part. We were the radical youths demanding peace in the warring jungles of distant lands. We were the radical youths who became silent with the ending of the draft. No doubt, it was healthy for us, and those placing us so

high, for us to fall and realize we appear to be as self seeking as any generation.

This is not a plea for us to return to the sixties, only fools and cscapists desire to do so. Wc are in the seventies and with seventies problems. Southeast Asia will be at peace soon, but a peace in need of all the humanitarian help the world and especially the United States can offer. We are not radical youths of the messianic generat i o n / b u t youths that must realize their obligation to the peoples of southeast Asia.

The anchor calls on the college com-, munity to find some sort of means to aid the victims of a war for which we as Americans must accept some degree of guilt. Wc suggest that the MOCP and the Chaplain's office organize fund raising projects for the relief of the war torn countries in Southeast Asia. The Red Cross and the Friend's Society are two, possible groups that the money could be appropriated to by either MOCP or the Chaplain's office.

The two organizations policy of aiding all peoples regardless of political ties appears to be in the best accord with Hope's Christian commitment and hence these two should receive whatever our community can raise.

We can never hope to be the messianic generation. We can hope; however, to be a generation that senses the needs of a people distant and in pain due largely to our nation. The anchor asks for the community's support and involvement in whatever attempt taken by Hope to relieve the afflictions of a too long war.

Letters

Editor annoys Slater I wish to address myself to one of the main issues which was presented in the last anchor concerning the visit of Mr. Howard Gaass. The anchor editor in his "God's Blessed Place" spoke very harshly concerning some rude behavior by "scribish mystical Christians" and I will not try to defend them.

On the other view the editor presented, however, I wish to confront him. He stated that it was refreshing " t o hear an individual speak honestly about himself and his b e l i e f s . . . " and again said Hope students received him with a closed mind.

• I acknowledge that Mr. Gaass spoke honestly but I do not feel Hope was closed minded, for many individuals heard, understood, and questioned what he said.

No view should be accepted simply because one person is sincere in believing it, for many people may be sincerely wrong.

•.

The editor then denouced some "modern day scribes in their ability to quote verse after verse of Scripture, proving their beliefs true and all other opinions false."

Jesus did not denounce the scribes of his day for quoting scripture, (Matt. 15:1-6), but advised them to read and follow it, (Jn. 5:39 and Matt. 7:24).

On the point of using scripture as a standard, the Bible stands in defense of itself (2 Tim. 3:16) and by the witness of the Holy Spirit in and through it we are instructed. It should be noted here that among the purposes of scripture is the "correction" of falseness even if it is "sincere."

Concerning Gaass' views, several of them are not only controversial but ajso in direct opposition to scripture. The first opposing view would be his emphasis that scripture has cultural overtones and that Christians of today must be concerned with the attitude the Bible offers them to live by and not the finite societal laws and customs that are presented to Christians in the Bible.

This view directly contradicts 2 Tim. 3:16, 17; 2 Pet: 1:19-21'as well as many* other verses. His stance that homosexuality is not sin is refuted by scriptures from Gen. 19:1-13, Rom. 1:18-28, and 1 Cor. 6:9. Though such desires may be real in some men and rationalized as "love" by them, the Bible vehemently stands against such behavior.

Finally a concern voiced by both Mr. Gaass and Bob Luidens of the way m which the church should handle "persons struggling with burdensome problems which it has historically shunned and condemned" must be considered. We must, as a Christian church, acknowledge that

God is our only center and that those actions which are in opposition to His will are sin.

We must also recognize that we are all sinners and saved only by the Grace of God in Jesus Christ. As such we are to live humbly and with real love "restore those overtaken in a fault" (Gal. 6:1). This may take many positive forms but we must remember that God also uses discipline to make us live for Him. Church discipline is Biblical (I Cor. 5). I am sure that the Reformed . Church decision was prayerful and deeply loving in their asking Mr. Gaass to leave their church.

As an individual I am sorry for and love Mr. Gaass but 1 must humbly (for I also sin) oppose his actions and his views on Biblical grounds. I desire that he will submit to God and become a true man of God-perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

Dwight Slater

Big turnout asked for Who cares about campaigns-you? It is not my intention to lecture you on responsible citizenship, neither is it my purpose to offer promises which I recognizably cannot fulfill.

What I am asking, as a presidential candidate myself, is that you examine the candidates for what they really are and not simply for the image they will attempt to present during the next 12 days.

A candidate may run a seemingly flawless campaign but may be most unrepresentative in office, as-was dramatically illustrated by former President Nixon. (This statement was not meant, however, to initiate a debate on the character or laurels of Nixon.)

When I said that this letter would not be a lecture, perhaps 1 should have warned you that I wished to implore, or maybe it should, even read beg you to participate in the student campaign both through voting and through analyzing what a candidate will offer in reference to his past action, his capabilities for working among students, administration and visitors both in public and in private, and his philosophy and plans for the coming year.

A minority president who will only represent a small faction of the Hope student body could be the case if under 600 people vote as happened last month with our new constitution.

Last week the Ford Administration announced it had " f o u n d " $21.5 million for Cambodia military aid that it didn't know it had before.

IT SEEMS that because of "sloppy" bookkeeping in the Defense Department we had shortchanged Cambodia that amount of money and, therefore, without the advice and consent of the Senate, the aid was being dispatched immediately.

President Ford was furious when he heard the news and said he would not condone that kind of bookkeeping again.

What he didn't say was that he had ordered his staff to check the Defense Department and find out who was responsible for the bungle.

IT TURNED out it was Glockstern who was in charge of the Cambodia account.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff called him in.

"Glockstern," a general said, "you have blotted your copybook.

"How could you possibly have made this error which has embarrassed us and caused anguish in the high circles of government" "I'VE BEEN going over my books and I can't find any way we owe the Cambodians $21 million." An Air Force general said, "We have evidence from other sources that we shortchanged the Cambodians by $21 million."

"What other sources?" Glockstern demanded. "Henry Kissinger's brother," an Army general retorted.

"I BROUGHT my books with me," Glockstern said. "You can look at them.

We paid the Cambodians every cent that Congress voted in 1974. You can go over them if you want to."

"We're not interested in your books," an admiral told him "We know you made a mistake, and the manly thing to do is own up to it."

GLOCKSTERN refused to budge. "I'm

a graduate certified public accountant.

During all my years of working for the Defense Department I have never made an error, and I refuse to admit that my Cambodian accounts are not in order."

The Marine general said, "Glockstern, the Cambodians have accountants, too, and they maintain we still owe them $21 million. The United States never questions the accounting methods of a friendly sovereign power. If they say the books are incorrect, we have no choice but to give them the money."

"WHAT MONEY?" Glockstern said.

"We don't have any-funds to give them, unless Congress appropriates more." "1 don't think we should bother Congress about a measly $21 million. They have a lot of important things on their mind. I believe it's up to us to find $21 million so we can square our debt," the Air Force general said. " O k a y , " said Glockstern. "What do you suggest?" "It seems to me," said the admiral, "an overrun on an aircraft carrier of $21 million would not be out of line."

"That's fine with me," said Glockstern, "as long as it doesn't go on my books."

"BUT IT has to go on your books," the Army general said. "We can't give the money to the Cambodians unless we announce that you made a $21 million , error. Otherwise Congress will have our butts." • "You have to do it for your country," the Marine general said. "Glockstern," the Air Force general said gently, "How would you like to be secretary of the treasury?"

"I wouldn't mind if it didn't hurt my pension," Glockstern replied.

"Then you're willing to admit you made a mistake on the Cambodian account?"

"Yes," said Glockstern, " b u t it wasn't my fault. The battery in my pocket calculator went dead."

What is David Bowie attempting in his new album? In order to even attempt to figure out what this question means, we have to go back and examine what American Rock music is.

1970 , S AMERICAN Rock is like a large bowl of dough whose ingredients include the blues of black and inner city U.S.A., the sugar coated melodies and voices of Middle America, the rhythm of Gospel music, and the long-haired "3 chord" bands (circa mid1960^) that nurtured their American cousins to even worse bombastic noise.

Satisfied? Now at least we have a place to work from . . . But why does Darling David bump and struggle his way through music that belongs to Philadelphia and New York City on hist latest Young Americans?

FOR BOWIE, it seems like a stalemate, as he attempts to establish roots. David Bowie (Jones) hasn't seen fit to settle

("Changes", "Width of a Circle") through his new rock " t o y s " with the band following along. To hear Bowie on a series of sometimes inspiring, sometimes revolting performances, listen to the Live David LPs and hear an egomaniac screaming, and groaning his way through 90 minutes of what seems to have been fun for him anyway.

Where could Bowie go next but America in his search to exploit someone else's roots. What has resulted is a mixed collection of Philadelphia soul and Neo-New York pop called Young Americans. w THE WHOLE album spotlights Bowie the entertainer. The vocals have that quality of "leaned-backgasping" which sound so thin that sometimes they're lost in either the strong bumping background rhythms or over anxious back-up soul queens.

The title cut is a frantic bouncer that gets nowhere fast even with its cute lyrical punches at Nixon, the economy or even the News (Oh boy).

"WIN", SOUNDS like a Gerald Ford button on the Stylistics complete with strings and of SPONSORED course a chorus, "Now your smile BY THE is wearing thin-all you've got to do is w i n - d a t ' s all ya gotta do!"

MINISTRY "Fascination" sounds like it might be more at home with OF CHRIST'S Rufus as it drives funkadelically fEOPLE to "Right" a lighter Spinners type number that closes side one with the advice " . . . Never, No turnin back, Never been known to Fail!"

SIDE TWO features a remake activity derive from its own perception of God's will of the Beatle's "Across the Unifor the world. ^ verse," which survives the Bowie Theme 11: An emphasis on God's transcendence is vocal exercise and "Can You Hear Me?", another song that sounds at least a hindrance to, and perhaps incompatible like it might better have been with, Christian social concern and action. done by a black vocal team; but the other two songs stand out. • This supposition leads some to denigrate God's Bowie outdoes himself with a transcendence. Others, holding to a false transquasi-religious "Somebody Up cendence, withdraw into religious privatism or There Likes Me," that opens side individualism and neglect the personal and qomtwo. "His ever-lovin' face . . . munal responsibility of Christians for the earthly Smiles on the human race . . . He's city. From a biblical perspective, it is precisely got His eye on your soul-His because of confidence in God's reign over all aspects hand on your heart-Somebody of life that Christians must participate fully in the up there likes me." struggle against oppressive and dehumanizing strucQUITE powerful stuff that tures and their manifestations in racism, war, and becomes even more meaningful economic exploitation. with David coaxing the meaning out of every line.

Heresies denounced

!

After a weekend in Hartford, Connecticut, a group of theologians arrived at what they felt were threats to Christianity in today's world. The following is their "appeal for theological affirmation." In the last issue their first seven themes were listed and this week the remaining themes are discussed.

Theme 8: The sole purpose of worship is to promote individual self-realization and human community.

WORSHIP PROMOTES individual and communal values, but it is above all a response to the reality of God and arises out of the fundamental need and desire to know, love, and adore God. We worship God because God is to be worshipped.

Theme 9: Institutions and historical traditions are oppressive and inimical to our being truly human; liberation from them is required for authentic existence and authentic religion.

Institutions and traditions are often oppressive.

For this reason they must be subjected to relentless criticism. But human community inescapably requires institutions and traditions. Without them life would degenerate into chaos and new forms of bondage. The modem pursuit of liberation from all social and historical restraints is finally dehumanizing. _

Theme 13: The question of hope beyond death is irrelevant or at best marginal to the Christian understanding of human fulfillment.

Theme 10: The world must set the agenda for the Church. Social, political and economic programs to imporve the quality of life are ultimately normative for the Church's mission in the world.

This is the final capitulation to modem thought.

If death is the last word, then Christianity has nothing to say to the final questions of life. We believe that God raised Jesus from the dead and are " . . . convinced that $iere is nothing in death or l i f e , in t h e realm of spirits or superhuman powers, in the world as it is or in the world as it shall be, in the forces of the universe, in heights or depths-nothing in all creation that can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus oifr Lord: (Romans 8:38 f.).

THIS THEME cuts across the political and ideological spectrum. Its form remains the same, no matter whether the content is defined as upholding the values of the American way of life, promoting socialism, or raising human consciousness. The Church must denounce oppressors, help liberate the oppressed and seek -to heal human misery. Sometimes the Church's mission coincides with the world's programs. But the norms for the Church s

able today. With that constant beat, Lennon and Bowie bounce through almost five funky minutes of an opus, extolling the harsh pitfalls of stardom.

MUSICALLY, there is nothing wrong with Young Americans.

The band is tight and funky, the supporting cast (John Lennon included) is good. The songs show strong potential for dancing and future listening.

But for all of the brotherly love in Philadelphia and all of the sophisticated souls in New York City, David Bowie will never be Sam and Dave rolled up into one, or for that matter Marvin Gaye or Ike and Tina Tumer or countless others.

Nice try, David . . . but Please!

Lenny:a multi-level experience

by Robert Eckert

"Alas, for you blind [ hypocrites]. You say, 'If a man swears by the sanctuary, that is nothing; but if he swears by the gold in the sanctuary, he is bound by his oath.' Blind fools! Which is the more important; the gold, or the sanctuary which sanctifies the gold?" (Matthew 23:16, 17 N.E.B) THE CONCEPT versus symbol is a significant and necessary difference in questions about the nature of things, yet it must become clouded if we are to communicate. When you hear me yell "help," if I want any, I'd better hope that the sound of that word and the concept 1 want it to represent evoke the same reaction in you.

Likewise, it is for our own benefit that the symbols, S, T, O, and P on a sign mean only one thing. It's indoctrination, but it's a kind we need.

BUT AS JESUS points out in the above passage, the confusion of concept and symbol can be a harmful weapon in the wrong (or right) hands. Jesus would have been proud of Lenny Bruce and now he can be proud of Lenny.

Starring Dustin Hoffman and Valarie Perrine, Lenny is both a moving portrayal of the struggle of a particular- individual and a banner-bearer in the crusade against the hypocrisy of human society.

LENNY BRUCE was a man of many levels, as the movie shows in his varied and confused sexual escapades, his battle with heroin, and his comedy routines. The film does him justice as it illuminates the complexity of Lenny and becomes a multi-levelled experience in itself.

Lenny is the story of a comic who starts out doing "crap," finds his artistic niche and is then destroyed by a society that won't accept him. Or it is the story of a person^ unsure of his manhood who must continually prove himself only to pick one too many fights. Or it is the story of a good boy gone bad; a second Adam

dragged to the depths of hell by a weak-willed woman and her white powder version of the apple.

IN KEEPING with the motif of the man and the movie, the message of Lenny also is one of levels, the hypocritical levels of what we know we really are and what we nonetheless claim to be.

For example, if you're walking down the street and a complete stranger drives by and yells, "You're mother is a cocksucker," you're offended. Yet the fact that he doesn't even know if you have a mother, let alone his lack of evidence to back up his accusations, let alone your mother's perfect right to be one if she wants to, makes his statement as meaningless as "Pepsi-Cola."

COMPARE THAT with the Winston billboard that has an attractive young lass, tanned and seductively unbottoned saying, "I smoke for taste." It's pathetically obvious that the billboard doesn't have a thing to do with the consumer's desire for a goodtasting cigarette, although it does concern desire.

In the first case, the individual is offended by symbols that only pretend to represent a sacred concept. In the second, he accepts the actual exploitation of that same concept. What then do our morals involve Concepts or convenient symbols that can be detested by all, salving the consciences of both society and the individual.

CONSIDER just the word "cocksucker." You wouldn't say it in polite society but fellatio would be ok. Yet they both refer to the same act, they both induce the same image. We are in fact concerned with a meaningless combination of sounds while we claim to be concerned with morality, decency and ethics.

As Lenny Bruce says through Dustin Hoffman, "If President Kennedy would publicly say, 'nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger,' it wouldn't mean anything anymore and it wouldn't be an offensive word."

SPEAKING OF Dustin Hoffman, he is excellent as Lenny. As young Lenny Bruce, courting a love at first sight, he is as Valarie

Perrine says, "huggable." As a doped-up Lenny Bruce, stumbling through a routine, he is out of touch and pathetic, as a good junkie should be.

And as a defeated Lenny Bruce, he becomes a man obsessed, ranting during his performances as he reads from the transcripts of his obscenity trials instead of telling jokes.

HE BEGINS merely as a comic, then as hypocrisy becomes more and more real to him he emerges as someone with something to say, finally taking on the proportions of a messiah both in his following and the force Hoffman puts into his portrayal.

The woman behind the man is Honey Bruce, played by Valarie Perrine. His stripper-wife tells the bulk of the story through flashbacks as a present day Honey Bruce responding to an unseen interviewer.

IN THE present she is stable, but melancholy. In the past, however, as she joins and/or leads Lenny in his heroin experiments, she is pure sensuality. All she seems to do is shoot-up and hop in bed. Perrine, however, gives the character a good deal of substance. Despite Honey's strange sexual habits, despite her drug addiction, you never completely lose faith in her nor relinquish your concern. Perrine makes you care about a person who deserves none.

Lenny is good to its scope and its power. It, like Lenny Bruce, goes beyond entertainment. Both are at the same time comic and tragic. Both can simultaneously amuse and instruct.

LENNY shows us a man who was too aware. He understood too much about life's absurdities, yet failed to understand one important one, that most of us are too comfortable in them to give them up.

Throughout it all, Lenny draws no conclusions and that's another of its strong points. It gives the situation, but doesn't say what it means. It shows a genius with answers and the rest of us without as much as a question; and says that's the way it is, you figure out why.

Lacrosse, the new and exciting sport on Hope's campus, was accepted by participants and spectators very enthusiastically in its initial season last spring. This spring promises to be even more successful for both groups.

DUE TO the increased interest in the sport, the program has expanded in many areas. In its initial year the club consisted of only seventeen players. (A very scant nuipber considering that ten players are used in a game.)'This year participative interest has nearly doubled to where the roster now boasts thirty players.

In its initial year the coaching duties were handled admirably by founder and player/coach Bob Klein. This spring a new face has appeared on the scene-Robert Fetters.

AN ALL-AMERICAN at Maryland in 1946, Fetters is splitting the coaching responsibilities with Klein. Klein believes that Fetters presence should greatly improve the play of this year's club.

The added growth in participants has also led to an increase in the financial requirements for the club. This year this requirement has been fulfilled by funds from the Student Appropriations Committee and from President Gordon VanWylen.

KLEIN expressed the gratitude of the club by stating^ "The administration and President VanWylen have been most generous by aiding our efforts financially."

This spring lacrosse is also offering more opportunities for the spectator. Last year the schedule consisted of five games of which two were held at home at Van Raalte Field.

THIS SEASON the schedule has been expanded to seven games consisting of three home games.

Thus, the sport of lacrosse is growing rapidly on Hope's campus and should see greater growth in future years.

The spectator has but two remaining opportunities in which to enjoy at Hope the "fastest game on two feet." The first home game of the season is history. It was a disappointing loss for the

Dutch at the hands of Albion on March 26.

THE GAME began as most first games of any sport. Both teams were jittery and lacked total confidence in their abilities. However, by the second period the passing and hitting became more crisp and the action more exciting. Albion opened the scoring with a breakaway goal in the second period. â&#x20AC;˘Hope was not to be outdone and tied the score with an unassisted goal by Terry South, also in the second period. It was not until the fourth period that either team added points to their side of the board. With eight minutes showing on / the clock, Albion again scored, going ahead 2-1.

THE YOUNG Hope squad would not concede to the more experienced Albion team and knotted the score two minutes later with a goal by Bill Drysten.

This was the extent of the scoring , in the regulation time.

In lacrosse, if the score is tied at the end of regulation time, two five minute periods are played and if a tie still exists, the game is put into sudden death.

IN THIS game, the final out- . come was decided in the sudden death period, with Albion scoring approximately four minutes into the sudden death period.

Although the. loss was very disappointing for the Dutch squad, Klein feels that a great deal of confidence was gained and that the team should improve steadily as the season progresses.

THE HOPE squad has but two remaining home games this spring.

Saturday, the Dutch face the Chicago Lacrosse Club.

This club is the defending Midwest Club Lacrosse Association champions and is perennially one of the top clubs in the Midwest due to a roster of experienced graduates.

CHICAGO IS led by Rich O'Leary, the leading goal scorer in the MCLA. His team should set forth a good showing of how lacrosse is played on the more sophisticated levels.

Klein, in order to beef up a poor offensive showing against Albion, is shifting John Clough and Craig Lammers to close-in attack.

The only other remaining home game this spring is Wednesday, April 16. This game finds the Dutch pitted against the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame and should be every bit as exciting as last year's 9-8 victory by the Dutch over the Fighting Irish,
