New Volumes Added To Math Library

Professor Albert E. Lampen, Head of the Mathematics Department reports t h a t a handsome four-volume set of books entitled The World of Mathematics, has been added to the Mathematics Library. This set is reported to be the most extensive mathematics collection ever published and entails fifteen years of intensive research. The general editor is Dr. J a m e s R. Newman, member of the Board of Editors of the Scientific American magazine, and publisher of many other texts. Rather than being ordinary text books on the subject of mathematics these volumes are a superb biographical and explanatory commentary on mathematicians. , . The set covers the entire field of mathematics and is especially intended to interest the general reader who desires to learn about the application of mathematics to heredity, psychology, money, social sciences, banking, astronomy and computing machines. The books also contain many surprise selections f r o m noted authors such as Stephen Leacock's hilarious, The Mathematics of Golf.

A.S.A. Urges Voting The f r e s h m e n girls of ASA are sponsoring a "get-out-to-vote campaign" for the current elections. It is customary f o r ASA to r e f r a i n from backing particular candidates but to encourage student co-operation and participation. In visits at each womens' residence hall Mary Ann Klaaren, ASA President, urged the girls to get out to vote and a group of nine girls provided appropriate music. Owls, symbolizing the wisdom of voting, were placed on the dining hall tables, and posters were displayed about campus. The f r e s h men girls wore circular pins bearing a reminder to vote. During Wednesday's noon meal the girls will visit each dining' hall, once more reminding the student body of the importance of voting. Throughout their campaign the girls stressed forethought, wisdom, and good judgment in voting. They emphasized the necessity of 100% participation in the selection of leaders. The project was under the direction of Marilyn Scudder and Harriet Davenport.

Member Associated Collegiate Press

"Around The World in 80 Minu t e s " will be the theme of the thirteenth annual production of the F r a t e r Frolics, which opens Wednesday, April 24, at the Women's Literary Club. According to Frolics director Bob Winter, the show will f e a t u r e a total of eight acts, and combine serious thought and a variety of musical t r e a t s with the usual f a r e of comedy. Opening t h e show will be a scene set in the Netherlands, in which writers Ev Nienhuose, Tom Lubbers, and George Van Verst turn an Anastasia-like student revolution into a happy conclusion with a few e x t r a deans getting in the way f r o m time to time. Following this, the Frolics Chorus will present a group of vocal selections in an international flavor. They will be directed by Bill Brookstra. The third act will delineate the trouble encountered by an overenthuasistic art professor as he a t t e m p t s to translate the inner meaning of some world-famous paintings to two r a t h e r dense students. John Winter has produced a fine act on this theme, set in Paris, at the Louvre. In "A W a y to Die" Dave Spaan has produced a script which draws stark contrasts in the moral fiber of a group of people as they face death f r o m an agressor. This, the serious act, will be followed by a brief intermission. The second half of the show will be opened to the hooves of horses as Curt Menning's 7,777th Bengal Lancers stumble their way through a typically British crisis in the F a r East. Tea and crumpets come before the capture of a group of wicked infidels, and Capt. Rhoades remains the m a s t e r of all situations. The F r a t e r Combo and their Dixieland style of music have become almost a " m u s t " attraction a t the Frolics, and this year's combo, under the direction of John Winter, should prove equal to the task as they add a novelty tune to their usual lively beat on the old favorites. The t r i a l s and tribulations of life and love in a "people's democr a c y " f u r n i s h the theme f o r some good-natured spoofing a t the ubiquitious collegiate rules in an act written by Dave Muilenburg. Guys who get mixed up with their roommate's girls are in f o r trouble in any country, and of trouble they have no end. Closing t h e show will be a musical act by Bob Winter, which bears a s t r a n g e resembalance to the recent ban on dormitory good-night kissing instituted a t the University of Michigan's Stockwell Hall. Those who attend musical comedies may recognize a familiar tune or two along the way as a group of rebellious girls team up with an itinerant peddler to come to the aid of a f r u s t r a t e d boy, who tells his equally f r u s t r a t e d girl-friend, "Kiss Me, E l e a n o r — B u t H u r r y ! " The Frolics will be presented f o u r nights again this year, opening on the 24th, and running through Saturday, April 27. Curtain time is 8:00 and tickets may be purchased f r o m any member of the F r a t e r n a l Society.

We have only one thought to present to you. A f t e r having listened to the campaign issues, cast your votes for the ones you deem will fill t h e qualifications f o r the respective offices. Remember, these people you vote f o r are your representatives, and are also the governing bodies of the student body. Don't make the elections just a popularity contest, think and —

VOTE Letter to the Editor Dear Editor: Lately we have been much disturbed by some of the attitudes and opinions which we have heard expressed on the campus. With hesitation we would like to present here a few t h o u g h t s which, we sincerely hope, will contribute to this vitally important discussion . . . . . . . W e are concerned by the emphasis which is being placed on Reason as t h a t which leads us to Christ, and once we have found him, guides us in t h a t relationship which gives meaning to life. Reason, we are certain, is not a t r u s t worthy guide to the Christ, and to life's t r u e s t meaning. This is t r u e , first of all, because man's mind h a s been seriously impaired by sin, as Scripture clearly teaches: "The n a t u r a l man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: f o r they are foolishness unto h i m : neither can he know them, because they a r e spiritually discerned." (I Cor. 2:16) F u r t h e r m o r e , as one can readily see in the philosophy of Soren Kierkegaard, human reason is limited in its quest to search out t h e unknown, and ultimately leads to despair and f r u s t r a t i o n . Thus, the committment of f a i t h must precede an understanding of life's final meaning in Jesus Christ. We have already touched upon another subject which we wish to discuss, t h a t being the condition or t h e worth of man. It must be acknowledged t h a t human life in its sinful condition is, in God's sight, not to be considered valuable and worth saving. Even to s u g g e s t such is to detract f r o m the m a j e s t y and greatness of God's plan of redemption in which he, in his grace and mercy because he loves man, rescues him f r o m t h e predicament in which he h a s lost himself. God does not stoop down to save because man is worthy, but because he loves the wretched sinner. Man is salvagable, but scarcely w o r t h saving in himself.

Because of the condition in which man has cast himself, because of his depravity, his inability, he cannot "transcend himself," he cannot of himself find meaning in life, by himself. I t is only as he yields his life to the Saviour in childlike f a i t h , surrendering his mind, his emotions, his heart, his will to him who loved and died because he loved, but rose again t h a t we might live, t h a t life becomes worthwhile. In conclusion, let us say t h a t there is much t h a t h a s been said and done on our p a r t in the past t h a t ought not to have been. We acknowledge that, and confess it before God and men. We have lived inconsistently, and have acted often in an unChristian m a n n e r ; perhaps, because of a lack of love, it has sometimes been to the h a r m of some. F o r this we are sorry. But we feel constrained to add t h a t our f a i t h remains unchanged. We love our Lord who died f o r us; we believe his Word; and we want to serve him, each day and every day. It is our p r a y e r that something which we now have placed before you m a y aid someone in his struggle with this the all important question, " W h a t think ye of the Christ." Respectfully submitted, Dick Rhem Dick De W i t t

"Who's sponsoring today's prog r a m ? " "Oh, I don't know, the Cultural Program Committee, I guess." "Well, what are t h e y ? W h a t do t h e y , d o ? " This is a typical Hope College problem. For there are many behind-the-scenes Student Council Committees about which tha student body knows little. The Cultural P r o g r a m Committee is one of these. The Cultural P r o g r a m Committee ia a student-faculty committee with representatives f r o m t h e speech, history, and music departments a n d . t h e student body. This committee sponsors the annual Hawkinson Memorial lecture, the speakers and musicians appearing t h r c u g h o u t the year, and the student tickets for the Civic Concerts. This y e a r you have heard Mr. Cooper speak on A f r i c a ; Abbas Kessel speftk about Asia; Dr. Pollock; a cefTist; the British Debaters; and the Bowling Green Debaters. The •» committee has scheduled t h i e e more p r o g r a m s f o r this year: Masselos who will be appearing today, t h e - c o m p o s e r s festival which will be held next week, and Norman Webster who will speak t h e first week in May about poetry. These p r o g r a m s are scheduled f o r the enjoyment and benefit of the student body, and all students are urged to reap these benefits.

April 12, 1957. P i n g pong was made p a r t of the I n t e r - F r a t e r n i t y sports program this year and although the season is not yet finished, the Cosmos are now out in front. The program has been divided into two sections, singles and doubles. Each f r a t e r n i t y fielded two singles players and one doubles team. The g a m e s were played by the standard rules and scored by a point system which was set up by the IFC. The point system works as follows: one point f o r a bye, one point f o r a singles win, on point for a default, one and one half points f o r a doubles win. Each contest consisted of three games. Two out of the three games were required to win the contest. All g a m e s were played in the recreation room of Kollen Hall. In doubles play the Cosmos' team of Ray De Does and Gary Ter Haar finished in first place with the Knicks' team of Charlie Pettingill and Jim Kamp in second place. Singles play is still a wide open field with Holt of the Knicks, Karachy of the Arkies, Bredeweg of the Cosmos and Voss of the F r a t e r s all battling f o r first place as this paper goes to press. The ping pong program this y e a r is another step in building Hope's growing intramural sports program.

The Dutch pitchers were strong while the hitters came through with the e x t r a base hits when they were needed. The wind and snow didn't seem to slow down the Dutch one bit. Mert Vanderlind started the first g a m e for Hope. In four innings he fanned f o u r and gave up f o u r hits and was credited with the victory. A1 Kober finished the game by striking out one and holding Ferris hitless. Hope began its scoring in the opener in the bottom of the first. Jack Faber slammed a double to right center and crossed the plate on Dave Woodcock's single. The Hope captain scored soon a f t e r on a throwing error in the Ferris infield. Ferris tied the score in their half of the fourth. With one man on and one out, Sam Nicalaou singled to right. Arn Boeve let the ball get by him for one error. Getting Boeve's throw a t short. Jack Faber threw home wild to let a run score. Vanderlind recovered the ball and his wild throw to third let the second run in. Hope moved ahead to stay in the bottom half of that inning. A r t Olson doubled and scored easily on Tim Vander Mel's three bagger. Tim also garnered a double to lead the Hope batting attack. Dave Woodcock contributed a pair of singles. In the second game, Jim K a a t took the mound for Hope. In his f o u r inning stint he fanned five, including three in the first inning, and gave up but one hit.

Jack F a b e r walked and went to second on a wild pitch in Hope's half of the third in the nightcap. Dave Woodcock's single scored him. Jack Kempker drove in two more in the fifth with a single to l e f t a f t e r K a a t and Faber had walked. The Dutch closed out t h e i r scoring f o r the day in the sixth.
