Tom Baird, State Editor of Grand Rapids Herald. Speaks to Anchor Staff To an interested group of wouldbe journalists, Tom Baird, stale editor of the Grand Rapids Herald, gave a comprehensive talk on the facts of professional journalism last Wednesday. In a breezy, informal s t y b , pleasantly interspersed with humorous accounts of his own newspaper experiences, Mr. Baird gave the members of the Anchor staff the following pointers: 1. Don't be a reporter if you a r e really interested in the a r t of writing. A good reporter needs a good nose for news and f a c t s more t h a n a literary style. 2. Be willing to accept small pay, i r r e g u l a r hours and numerous ups-and-downs in the newspaper trade. Mr. Baird stressed the f a c t t h a t journalism is a t r a d e which can be learned only by practice in it, and he advised all those who get jobs on newspapers t o change p a p e r s often, a s s t a n d a r d s in various newsrooms differ. A good w a y to get a s t a r t , he said, was to do f r e e - l a n c e correspondence for

The final choice of the queen will rest upon a committee consisting of Esther Hinkamp, Kay Boon, Gladys Moerdyke and Dean Lichty.

Singers Return Saturday After Two Weeks' Tour Boys' glee club returned Saturday from their two-weeks' trip in the East. In Rochester they were shown through the E a s t m a n School of Music and the Kodak company. The club had a free day in New York and it was sp^nt in "doing the town." Many places of interest were visited including the Empire state building. They also enjoyed a deepsea fishing trip, which was a r r a n g ed for them by one of the churches. All their concerts were well received, and the boys were entertained in an appreciative manner. metropolitan dailies. Three books which Mr. Baird recommended as especially helpful a r e : Getting and Writing Neivn, Editing the Dag's News, by George C. Bastian, and Parker's Laws of Libel.

Judges Select Fourteen Junior Girls As Eligible For Next Campus Queen Fourteen junior girls who were deemed eligible for Campus Queen were selected by Mrs. Chartier, Miss Gertrude Smeenge and Miss Louise Krum, judges at Voorhees hall, last Thursday. Names were not disclosed. The girls were judged on ten points, namely; general effect, choice of clothes, personality, beauty, coiffure, carriage, grace, poise, charm of manner, and attitude. Each judge checked each item if favorably impressed. This gave a girl the possible total of 30 points. A f t e r the contest the judges and a committee of three conferred together and arranged the list of 14 girls, according to the number of points received. The final choice of queen and the six members of her court will be made from among these 14 a week before May Day on May 6. The committee will, at t h a t time, make their selection on the basis of the results of this first contest, on activities, and on whether or not the girl has a " C " average. The committee in charge of the contest was E s t h e r Hinkamp, chairm a n ; June Pomp, K a y Boon, and Gladys Moerdyke w i t h D e a n Lichty as f a c u l t y advisor. The music was furnished by Mary Bolema.ENGLISH MAJORS TONIGHT The English Majors' club will meet tonight. See the bulletin board for place and time. The program will be in charge of Henri Vande Brake.
With an estimated 3,000 books having been turned in during the closing hours of the library drive yesterday afternoon. Dr. James Warner, in charge of the campaign, said this morning that it will probably be about a week before the books received can be sorted and the winners of $65 in prize money announced. In the f r a t e r n i t y division, where the most books were turned in, the contest lies between the Cosmopolitans and the F r a t e r n a l s , Dr. Warner said. Results of the sororities contest will show the winner to be Delphi, Dorian, or Sibylline. Last-minute dark-horse entries in the Independent group placed three men in position to take first or second prize of $10 or $5: C. Olson, Ted Oegema, or Don De Kraker. Four girls will be kept busy classifying the books during the next week. Dr. Warner said. He estimated the total number • of books received in the drive at 4,000. Due to the many requests for extension of time caused by the extra day of vacation, the contest Jate was changed to 4:30 p. m. Tuesday. April 20 will definitely conclude the contest when all books received through the mail must be in. The societies and independents have donated many worthwhile books. Dr. W a r n e r stated. Some of the valuable books accepted are ss follows. 12 indexed volumes of the History and Enclopedia of Music. Complete set of volumes of Indian music. "The History of Civilization in Europe" by Francois Guizot. Theodore Roosevelt's "Letters to his Children." "A Winter in North China" by Rev. T. M. Norris. Professor Winter donated a fine collection of recent education books which will doubtless prove of great benefit to his students. "I am very well pleased and g r a t ified by the response of the student body as a whole," Dr. Warner said in commenting on the outstanding success of the drive.
Activities League Gives Style Show Monday Afternoon As their April f e a t u r e the Woman's Activities league presented a style show at the Woman's Literary club Monday.

were in the office should be moved to the library. There are now two pictures on the west side which have been put there since the letter was written. (Did you notice i t ? ) This, I think, is an improvement and wish to thank those who brought it about. I also have a suggestion. In 1934 or 5 a new set of books came into the library called "The Smithsonian Scientific Series." At that time they were on the shelves in a conspicuous place and were partially read by some freshmen. Then they were put in the back room. Now they're in the corner at your feet when you look at the Encyclopedia Brittanica. Today I found them again and as I was reading 1 found pages that had never been separated! What, good books like this never read, even by science stu-
them in the library. Few science students spend much time in the library- and these twelve books are not read. What a shame! These books a r e n ' t r e f e r e n c e books. They're more like Beebe's or De Kruif's books. They're books to be read from beginning to end and should be loaned out as such. Because they're in a series is no sign that they're reference books. Recently I picked up a bright, newlooking book and found to my surprise that it was printed twentyyears ago! But on the tops of the leaves were the signs of age. Books keep well in the back room! I am glad some have been brought out. After all, what is a library for — to keep books or to loan books and use them ? Of what use are dustcovered books? Charles Waldo.
Well, f r a n s , it looks like we got fooled again! The recent snowstorm foxed us the way the Reorganization Bill foxed F a t h e r Roosevelt. Ain t Nature g r a n d ? / THEN THERE was the dumb senior who thought that the Freshman orientation courses were lectures on the Sino-Japanese situation! In spite of the talked-of boycott, we still pick up many things around the shops labelled "Made in Japan." And it looks as though the n e x t world w a r were going to be marked the same way. QUOTE — from the Anchor: "The Cosmopolitans held their regular meeting . . . Marge Moody and Mickey Lemke sang "The Old Apple Tree," accompanied by loud guffaws . . ." Why, Janey . . . / Sometimes the best waiter at a restaurant is at one of the tables. . . . SPECIALLY when it's T U L I P time. PICK-UPS: 1. DOLICHOCEPHALIC (Hmmm, the Prints is going high-hut. Well, anyway, it's just the title). Oh, I'm rather a long-headed guy. Perspicacity lives in my eye, Yet I used to believe. With a dumbness naive. That democracy WAS worth a try. 2. American Indian Day was recently celebrated. And it made us remember t h a t the s t u r d y pioneers bought all this country from the Indians for a few strings of glass beads, worn-out blankets and poor whisky. All we could say as we looked around us is that the sturdy pioneers got gypped! A certain high school senior looking around for a place to go to college (says Instructor Brouwer, who just got back from his trip out West) asked what sort of a place Hope college teas, and what kind of people ivent there. "Nothing but good old Dutch stock," came the answer, "no foreigners, except a few New Yorkers." H E A D L I N E — "Man Yawns for Four Days"—Hmmm, some of these college students have no self-control in classes! All the Junior girls put on their best duds and paraded for choice of a Junior queen last Thursday night. Wonder if any of the buyers from certain Grand Rapids firms* who were judges at the contest got any ideas of new styles/ *Names of firms furnished on receipt of money for advertisement! Anyway, the beauty parade was conducted with all the secrecy of a private showing by a big fashion house! LETTER FROM DAD to college student: "Can't you cut down on your college expenses?" L E T T E R FROM SON to Dad: "Well, I could do without a few textbooks." QUOTE: (from Tennyson, we hope, hope, hope) — Words are like leaves and where they most abound, The fruit of sense is rarely found." Long column we've got this week, isn't it?

The Women's League of the college is making plans in cooperation with the council and the Anchor, and Hope's Victory Queen, Miss Marjorie Moody, will preside at the meet. While she will award ribbons to placing athletes, the junior queen, who will be announced following the track meet, will award cups and medals at the all-college banquet that evening. Under the rules of competition for the Interfraternity track meet, each team will appoint a manager to present his entries at a committee meeting at Carnegie gym on May 5. All team entries must be in the hands of the manager at that time so that positions and lanes for every man may be drawn then. Although rules of competition will be explained at that meeting, several general rules regarding the meet as a whole have already been made clear; 1. There shall be no restriction as to eligibility except that the entrant shall be registered as a member of his own f r a t e r n i t y or of the independent group. 2. All entries shall be handed to the f r a t e r n i t y team manager so that he can make arrangements for placement in events. This must be done before the meeting with the committee on Thursday, May 5. 3. No boy will be allowed to enter distance races greater than 220 yards unless he reports for training by next Monday. This rule is made to avoid injuries to muscles of untrained boys who might enter the races without conditioning.
April 28, 29 are Dates Set for Senior Play
Anchor i n t e r f r a t e r n i t y track meet will set the athletes of the five fraternities and an independent group to active work. Locker room talk on the meet until today has been merely a buzz as the men of the various teams speculated on the outcome of the second annual meet. Today, with the date f o r the affair definite, buzzing will become real talk. The records of last seasons' Cosmopolitan 56-53 triumph for the title will serve to make speculations of a concrete nature. Last year, it was the Cosmopolitan sprint ace, Don Martin, who stole the show in taking 19 points for his team in the meet. He brought the baton across the finish line first in the final relay event last year to break a 51-51 tie between the Cosmo and F r a t e r teams. His final sprint gave his team a 56-53 victory. In third place, the Knickerbockers collected 24V6 points. Emersonians placed fourth with 17, Independents fifth with 11 ^ points, while the Addisons got 3 points. The results of last year's meet is printed below to give athletes a change to figure what they can collect in the meet of thinclad men May 6. New odds now may be offered.

Praters Win Annual Inter-Frat Court Championship As the last sporting event before spring vacation, the Fraternal society basketball team closed a three-year campaign for the Int er f r at er ni t y basketball championship by defeating the Cosmopolitan five, 17-15. In each previous year, the Fraternals ended second best to the Cosmos by one-point margins. The Fraters wound up the 1938 basketball season on the campus by overcoming a Cosmo lead in the final two minutes of play. The green and white players had a 1512 advantage in the final minutes of the game. Powers sneaked under the basket in the final seconds to score the winning bucket. In a preliminary game, Ruth Van Popering's all-star girls' team defeated Thelma Kooiker's outfit, 14-6. Connie Muste was high scorer with six points for the winners. Miss Kooiker's best scorer was Betty De Pree with four points.

Women of the college will put on their togs f o r the May Day girls' track meet on the morning of May 6, In a meet patterned a f t e r the affair held last year before the crowning of Hope's junior Victory queen, the girls this year will s t a r t athletic activity for the first annual May Day. Working with Jack Schouten, girls' gym instructor. M i s s e s Gladys Moerdyke and Ruth Van Popering will make plans this week f o r the women's track meet. The games will include baseball and basketball throws, the high jump and broad jump, dashes, the shot put, and a baseball game between the women of the upper classes and the women of the lower two classes. Unlike the boys' meet, which is a f r a t e r n i t y affair, the girls' meet is a class competition. Awards similar to those made to men athletes will be provided for the girll' meet. No rules have been made for the track and field events, but they will be prepared by the committee, and announced at a later date. The meet is expected to bring to light exceptional athletic material among the girls, and a meet with the women of another M.I.A.A. school may be possible during the spring season. Have

Coaches Bud Hinga and J a c k Schouten participated in a meeting of M.I.A.A. mentors at Battle Creek last Monday and came home with a basketball schedule t h a t will last us f o r the next seven y e a r s . . . F o r the seven member teams, coaches of t h e league held a blind draw for a revolving schedule. . . We open next winter by entertaining Adrian a t home on J a n u a r y 9. . . We go to Kalamazoo f o r the next game, and play a t Hillsdale in the third. . . Under the revolving plan, the following year we will open with Kalamazoo, and play the second game with Hillsdale. . . Adrian, then, will be last on the list. It goes on f o r seven long years. . . The coaches also organized a four-game schedule f o r the freshman football team. . . Next year's frosh will entertain Alma on Oct. 6, and Hillsdale on Oct. 21. . . The frosh will play at Kalamazoo on Nov. 1, and will go to Albion on an undetermined date. . . Of more immediate importance are the plans f o r a triangular relay meet a t Kalamazoo April 23. . . These Coach Schouten made definite a t Battle Creek, a r r a n g i n g for Hope men to compete against teams from Olivet and the Hornet school. . . Field events will include the shot put, the discus and the javelin. . . Besides the 100-yard dash, there will be four-man relay races over courses of 440 yards, 880 yards, one mile, and two miles. . . A three-man relay race over the high hurdles may be arranged if coaches from Olivet and Hope can rustle three hurdlers. . . Baseball, too, is a thing of the spring sport season here. . . Petitions have been circulated, seeking a varsity baseball club on the campus. . . Meanwhile, members of the " I n t e r f r a t e r n i t y all-star" nine continue practice for a season which will include games with freshman teams from Michigan State and Western State, and possibly several Grand Rapids high schools. . . We would close with a word about the interfraternity track meet to be held on May 6. . . Nursed to a growing thing from the seed of Jack Schouten's reminiscence on early inter-class meets here, the meet was started by the Anchor sports staff last year. . . Primary reasons were: (1) to urge boys to the cinders for varsity track practice, who ordinarily would not try out, and (2) to arouse an interest in track among students and townspeople. . . The Anchor was successful in doing both to some extent last year, and co-operates with the student council this spring in great hopes of accomplishing even more this season. . . Hope's track team, now, is a sparse one, but with the help of fraternity men, it may grow to become a threat among teams of the M.I.A.A. at the annual association field day to be held at Kalamazoo the last of May. . . An item of interest is that if we understand correctly, Miss "whoever is chosen junior queen at the May Day festival" will reign as Victory Queen of the association at the M.I.A.A. field day. . . Annually, the winner of the all-sports trophy in one year, supplies the Victory Queen for the next. This afternoon at 4:30 Miss Lichty ^vill entertain the girls in the new and outgoing congresses of the Women's Activities league at a tea.
