WELCOME HOPE ALUMNI Tomorrow Is the Day:
Sophs Score Pull Victory V
As eighth hour ended prematurely at 4 p.m. last Friday, the campus began its yearly pilgrimage to the traditionhallowed shores of Black River. At 4:20 Tom Werge, general chairman this year for the historic event delivered one end of the huge Pull rope to the Freshman side via his small (but very official looking) outboard. Ten minutes later he signalled the beginning of the fifteen minute period which was devoted to the re-excavation of the holes to be used by each team member. Both classes frantically shoveled through the /layers of debris which represented more than sixty years of these battles. At 4:45 the shovels were, thrown out of the holes and the rope was carefully apportioned between the two classes. The current pushed the slack rope into a huge arc spanning the river. Tom raised his gun, and as the report of it echoed downstream, the 1961 Pull was under way. The sophomores, backed in the contest by the hapless Class of '62, got off to an immediate advantage by gathering in most of the slack rope. But the somewhat bewildered Freshman rallied to the cheers of their classmates and Junior allies to give evidence from the start that this was going to be no brief skirmish. These were the slow fifteen minutes. Prime attention was given to taping the hands of the men who held the glory of their classes along with the big rope. Alternately each side heaved against the rope. Alternately the huge crowds would go wild with delight at the apparent success of their team. But for fifteen minutes the big rope only stretched. Then after one minute of rest, the battle of the orange and blue vs. the blue and orange began in earnest. The Class of '64 forced their opponents to surrender a few feet of the coveted rope. Encouraged by the tremendous spirit of the crowd that lined their trench, the men of '65 braced themselves against the soft sand and recovered some of the lost footage from the enemy's lair. The hands of time moved much more quickly than did the rope. One hour slipped away. In the interim, most of the attention was centered on .the animal antics performed by the occupants of the flotilla of boats which had assembled on both sides of the line. At 5:43 the freshmen attempted a sharp volley of tugs. This seemed to gain some rope, but also must have aroused the
Floats, House Decoratioas, Game & Dance Following the theme "Adventure into the Future," Homecoming 1961 will be climaxed by the events of this Saturday. The plans for this day are a result of extensive and painstaking preparation. The Parade of Floats will begin at 10:30 a.m. on 8th Street. The themes of all floats will correspond with the general theme of this year's academic emphasis pertaining to the "future." These floats will also be related to the Homecoming football game to be played in the afternoon. Sorority and fraternity luncheons will begin at 11:30 a.m. Alpha Phi will meet at the Eten House; the Delphis will gather at the Wooden Shoe; Dorian will entertain returning alumni at Cumerford's; Sorosis will again hold their luncheon at the Hotel Warm Friend in the Tulip Room; and SibyUines will welcome alumni at their luncheon held in the American Legion Country Club. At 12:00 p.m. the "H" Club will also hold an alumni luncheon at Durfee Hall. "Futura," the Homecoming Ball, will climax the day. The Holland Civic Center will be decorated in a space age motif. Tiny Piper will supply the music,, and entertainment will be offered by Sue Van Ourverkerk, Tom Costing, a quartet featuring Jim Lucas, Dan Vander Vllet, Dave Vander Vliet, and Tom Bratt. Rick Hensel, Master of Ceremonies will introduce the Queen and her court once again and they will reign over the Ball. Immediately following the game all dormitories will be open for the hour preceding dinner. Mortar Board, Including Alcor, will hold its Alumni Tea after the game at Gilmore Cottage.
The Homecoming: queen for '61 is a twenty-one year old Miss from Hudsonville, Michigan, Barb Ver Meer. She is blond and blue eyed. Her major is English and German. Members of her court are Diane Claussen, Mary Berghorst, Marcia Meengs, Mary Van Harn, Karen Voskuil, Sally Kooistra, and Kathy Van Kuiken.
Sophs Elect Officers On Wednesday, September 27 the sophomore class elected Mark Suwyn vice president. Sue Strom secretary, and Arlene Arends treasurer. A record number of 275 sophs attended the first class meeting in Phelps Hall, Dave Mouw class president reported. sophomores who responded by reeling in more rope. The campus new-comers fought valiantly. The battle blazed. Time and the rope both moved more quickly. Freshman faces turned to look in desperation and disbelief to junior faces which had never experienced that feeling. The end was imminent. The twenty brave men of '65 and their three coaches • made one last stand at 5:50, stuggling to retain the mere vestige of rope which remained between them and the river. Six minutes later they were forced to admit defeat. Twenty tired men, three worn coaches, and morale girls, v/ho had stood beside them in their fight, followed the rope through the chilly waters to congratulate the Class of 1964.
The Annual Alumni Buffet Supper will be held from 5:00 to 7:00 in Phelps Hall. Junla Dalman and David Van Dam, both members of the junior class, have had the responsibility of chairmenshlp.

Harpsichord Brings Back Bach There's a new arrival at the Music Department.
The finished instrument was delivered here on September 18.
A harpsichord has been built for the college by Peter Kleynenberg, a cello instructor here and a well-known authority on keyboard instruments.
The harpsichord is today a relatively rare and little-known instrument. But in the days of Bach and Mozart it was as common and important as the piano is now. It was used during the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries as a basic instrument in the cham-. ber group and the orchestra, and as accompaniment for the voice and solo instrument.
Mr. Kleynenberg began work on the four-and-a-half octave instrument last June, and made many of the parts used in its construction himself. The impressive painted decoration was done by the widely - known Grand Rapids artist, Reynold Weidenaar.
Unlike the piano, where strings are struck with hammers, the harpsichord uses a
mechanism which plucks thestrings when the key is pressed. This gives it a very sharp and brilliant tone quality. With the harpsichord, then, it is possible to perform the works of the Baroque and early classical composers upon the actual instrument for which they were written. It will find much use here in the performance of the great music written when the harpsichord was at the height of its musical importance. A public dedication of the new harpsichord will take place at a time soon to be announced.
Noted Speakers To Dedicate Library Dedication of the new Van Zoeren Library will take place on Sunday, October 8, as part of Hope's Homecoming activities. Beginning at 3 p.m., the ceremony's participants will first convene at Dimnent Memorial Chapel and later proceed to the new library, where the actual dedicatory ceremony will take place. Principle donor for the new library is Dr. Gerrit John Van Zoeren, whose name the new edifice bears. Dr. Van Zoeren is a Hope College graduate of the Class of 1912, and has distinguished himself in both scientific and business fields. Presiding at the dedication program will be Dr. Irwin J. Lubbers, President of Hope College. The Rev. Norman E. Thomas, President of the General Synod of the Reformed Church in America and presently minister
of the First Reformed Church of Albany, New York, will also participate. Rev. Thomas graduated from Rutgers University and New Brunswick Theological Seminary' and is a member of the Reformed Church Board of World Missions, Chaplains Commission, and the Board of Superintendents, New Brunswick Seminary. Principal speaker at the dedication will be Dr. Robert S. Michaelson, Professor and Administrative Director of the School of Religion, State University of Iowa. Dr. Michaelson, whose strong interest in religious education is indicated in his many publications, has served in his present post since 1954. Previously, he taught at Yale University, Garrett Biblical Institute, Harvard University, and Vanderbilt University.

Notes From The
Editorial
Underground
A Need Answered Hope College's new library is an edifice for which students and faculty are proud and thankful. It is a (necessary) long overdue step forward in Hope's program to provide quality education. A grateful thank you comes from the students to Dr. Van Zoeren who recognized the need and made the library possible. The modern functional architecture of openness and light creates a similar openness of freedom in the mind which is conducive to study. The building itself, aside from the ever increasing number of books and periodicals, Is a stimulus to individual independent research and study. The only recommendation—which is under consideration now— Is an extension of the library's hours in the evening. The men would appreciate the increased time. If the librarians are willing to work the extra time, it should be changed to at least 10:30. The women's hours should not be a reason for keeping men from using our new facilities.
Prestigi The action or lack of action by the members of the uncommitted nations at the recent Belgrade Conference has started some of the people in government reconsidering our relation to the neutrals. As neutrals these countries know which side brandishes strength and power, and because a strong national purpose has not been demonstrated, they know which side can be bullied and intimidated. This was directly shown by the lack of reaction to the Russians resuming nuclear testing. This country has not tested for three years because of the world prestige which seems to affect only the United States. There is a difference between a strong leader and a leader who tries to satisfy everyone. The Russians seem to be beating us at our own purpose. They are meeting people's basic needs or at least impressing these people as doing so, even though it is by control and suppression. The Communists have taken Christianity, whether in Cuba or Russia, and replaced Christ with the state. The Communists seem to have the spirit of concern for the other man's needs even though these needs are not met correctly. However, whatever concern there really is for man's needs is lost in the struggle for power and world domination. Prestige means little when the war is being fought at this advanced stage. Because of a sense of self determination, the neutrals have little real support for the West or for the Communists. It is doubtful that they care to be ruled by either. However, this does not deter them from accepting foreign aid from both sides. Therefore, we. as a nation must realize that as a Christian people we have a concern for the other fellow whatever his sect, but we should not be led to believe that we can buy his allegiance through foreign aid or that we must preserve prestige at all costs while losing the struggle to the Communists.

All letters must be signed and must reach the editor by Tuesday evening prior to publication.

Leaning back in his chair, inhaling deeply, then exhaling a blue cloud over and through the conversation, Gooberink surveyed us all as if we were the New World and he Columbus. I idly visualized him whipping a little flag out of his pocket and claiming us for the Queen of Spain. It was at least obvious that, Columbus or not, he had something to say. And he leaned forward and said it, his voice pointed at Erlkonig. "Hey, E r l " Erlkonig only grunted. He was trying to study—the fool.

"Listen," said Gooberink, "I can disprove Existentialism." I spluttered half a mouthful of coffee back in my cup, but Erlkonig only raised his head slowly and said, "Well for heaven's sake keep it quiet. Sartre would be crushed. He's spent a lifetime on it." "Yeah," said Arie W. from the next table. "The whole twentieth century down the drain. Poof." "But . . . " said Gooberink. "Just like that," said Arie. "Poof. All gone. You sound like a medicine man.

Academic Horizons: THE GREAT LAKES COLLEGE ASSOCIATION By Justine Ann Dakin No doubt many Hope students and faculty members took cognizance of the article "In Union There Is Quality" which was published in the Education section of the September issue of TIME magazine.

"But I really can," Gooberink said. What's wrong with disproving Existentialism?" Dearly beloved, I thought, we are gathered here today . . . . and Arie moved over to our table and sat down next to Gooberink. "Look, Chops . . ." "DON'T CALL ME THAT." Gooberink is portly and sensitive. "All right. Now look—just exactly what do you know about Existentialism?" "Well—there was this chapter in a book I was reading . ." "What was the name, ChGary?" Erlkonig interrupted the colloquium. "The point is, Gary," he said, "you can disprove an argument but not a whole thing like Existentialism. It's the same as trying to disprove New York or Beethoven or cubism." Gary was beginning to look less like Columbus and more like Alexander weeping for some more to conquer. He lit a cigarette and stared at the lit end mournfully. I decided it was time to change the subject. "What did you think of the pull?" I asked. Believe me, I had the best of intentions. But when he not only didn't reply but looked more miserable than ever, I remembered suddenly that he was a freshman. I mumbled something about getting another cup of coffee and exited, stumbling over somebody's feet as I did so. But when I returned a few minutes later, all three were arguing heatedly and happily about the pull. As I sat down I heard Arie, a junior, say something about the sophomores' having a big weight advantage. "Yeah," said Gooberink. "We should've had an extra man." A sophomore from the next table turned around and said that the weight advantage didn't mean a thing because the last five soph holes had been full of water. We all were just getting over our embarrassment for Gooberink, forgetting it as we immersed ourselves in the conversation, when Gary got an unfortunate brainstorm. He jumped up and pointed a finger squarely at Erlkonig. "I've got it!" he screeched. "How do you know there was water in the sophomore holes?" Erlkonig shrugged. "I was there. So was Michmerhuizen, ask him." I nodded, weak with a premonition of the horror that lay ahead. "Evidence of the senses, evidence of the senses!" yelled Gooberink. "You saw something that looked like water—but was it? How do you know it was water?" The horror was upon us. I exchanged a pregnant glance with Erlkonig. "Are you serious, Gary?" he said. "YES I'M SERIOUS." We carried him bodily to the janitor's room and stuck his head under the faucet and turned the water on. "Is that water. Chops?" "Yes." "Are you sure it's water? Your senses are not deceiving you?" "Yes, I'm sure. No, they're not." He burbled delightfully. But as soon as we turned it off, he recanted. I wonder . . . might it not have been water after all?

Social Sidelights HI Everyone: Once again we have some more news regarding the social life on campus. KAPPI BETA PHI The Dorians held a minute meeting to discuss the many oncoming events. A schedule was set up, assigning each Dorian to work on a part of the Homecoming float. Karen Woltman, chairman of the Rush Program, discussed the plans which are being made for the Rush Teas. OMICRON KAPPA EPSILON Evidence of the "lovebug" is still appearing in the ranks of the Fraternal Society. Frater Jim Wiegerink was married this summer, and Tom Werge and Jim Schaap are pinned. The officers for the fall term are: president Sharky Vander Woude; vice president, John Brunson; secretary. Norm Dykstra; corresponding secretary, Tom Werge; treasurer, Tom Rickse; house manager, Dave Bonnette; sergeant-at-arms, John Mooshie. The Friday night meeting turned into a volley of cheers upon the appearance of victorious pull team coach, Tom Rickse. DELTA P H I A beautiful center piece, 7-Up Floats, and much pleasant conversation paved the way to the first Delphi Rush Tea, planned and carried out by Betsy Kruizenga and pledge Judy Steegstra. Plans for the final tea under the direction of Delphi Shirley Hoover and Pledge Mary Van H a m have had to be made simultaneously with work on the Homecoming Float. PHI TAD NU The Emersonian Fraternity has started a campaign for a new library at the house. The campaign got off to a good start with a number of books donated by Dick Newhouse. SIGMA SIGMA While Homecoming is the major activity presently, the Sigma Sigma sisters paused in their duties to become hostesses at the Rush Teas. Under the able direction of rush chairman, Grace Poppink, and assistant, Karen Voskuil, the two teas proved to be pleasant social hours. However, after the tea the sororities found themselves busily working on their float. This activity was headed by Ginny Mortensen. Tomorrow, both actives and pledges will again be hostesses—this time to the alumni. The annual luncheon will be held at the Tulip Room, and a big turn-out is expected. KAPPA ETA KNU Under the supervision of Bruce Roe and Bob Dunton, the float and house decorations are ready for exhibition, thanks to volunteers. Tom Titus has a hard working football team; what it lacks in weight, it has in spirit. CHI PHI SIGMA Congratulations are in order for Tom Bruno who became a father last month. Bob Hoekman who was married this summer, and Tom Dykstra and Mert Scholten who recently became pinned to Nancy Hart and Karen Atman (respectively). The couples were serenaded Wednesday night by the fraternity. Also announced last weekend was the pinning of Alumnus Bill Vanderbilt, *61 and Pat Winchester (Sorosis).
Inquiring Reporter by Susan Spring According to a recent Reader's Digest, the undoubted champ of qualities women most appreciate in their men is tenderness. The ANCHOR wondered what Hope women thought of this view. Is tenderness first on their list, or would they rather have honesty, courtesy, fairness or some other trait? These are the results of inquiring around campus: Sharon Norris, a senior who already has what she wants in a man, hit everything that any woman would want with the possible exception of money. She believes that all women become individuals when it comes to their desires in the characteristics of men. Each will give attributes that will harmonize or fill her own personality needs. However, there are a few personality traits upon which a majority of women would agree: loyalty, sincerity, tenderness, determination, individualism, masculinity, trustworthinees, and of course, lovingness." Along the same train of thought. Norma French, '64, thinks that today's woman is more realistic about requirements for a partner. "She isn't waiting for a shining knight on a white horse to sweep her away, she just wants someone who makes her feel needed. There are a lot of little points t h a t I could bring out, b u t they all boil down to that one fact."

START MIAA SEASON AGAINST ALBION Athlete's Feat
by Bob Kreanen
Over the years Hope and Albion have waged football w a r f a r e with the best of them, and this Saturday afternoon the Dutch and the Britons will go at each other for tne thirty-fourth time. The past record on this rivalry clearly shows how evenly matched these two teams have been. In the past thirty-three meetings Hope has won 14, Albion has won 16, and three have ended in ties. Since Head Coach DeVette has taken over the football reins at Hope College (since 1955), Hope has won four and Albion has won two. The scores the past three games with Albion also point out the equality of the two teams. Last year Hope came out on the short end of a 14-12 score in a game which could easily have gone either way. Two years ago the Dutch made a TD on a 73 yard p u n t r e t u r n by Sharky Vander Woude for a squeaky 7-0 victory. In 1958 (which will always be remembered as the year Hope beat Hillsdale) the Britons upset Hope on the last day of the season 18-13, costing the Dutch an undisputed league championship and an undefeated season. As for this year, statistically Albion rates a definite edge. They were the preseason favorites in the MIAA and already have two victories under their belt with wins over Eastern Michigan 14-0 and Kalamazoo 15-0. They possess a rock-tough defense that has not as yet been scored on and an adequate, if not spectacular, offense with a good assortment of hardrunning backs. Hope has looked anything but sharp in losing its first two games to Valparaiso and Wheaton. If the Dutch are going to right themselves in time to make a race for the MIAA championship, now would be sweet revenge for the defeats of 1960 and 1958. A win over the Britons to start the conference campaign would help the Dutch cause immensely.
Hope Harriers Defeat Aqulaas In their second meet, the Hope cross-country squad beat the Aquinas team, 23 to 33. Hope captain Sherri Schaffer finished first with a time of 21:28. Other Hope r u n n e r s to place w e r e f r e s h m a n A1 Hoffman, third; frosh Dick DeVelder, fourth; freshman Mike Laughlin, seventh; senior Dave Maris, eighth; and sophomore Bruce Welmers, tenth. The Flying Dutchmen were not as successful in their third
try. Calvin, favored to win the MIAA championship, beat the Hope squad, 19-44. Calvin r u n ner Ray Homes finished first with a time of 20:38, setting a new record for the American Legion Country Club course. Sherri Schaffer of Hope finished second, while the other Hope men finished f a r down in the field. The cross-county squad has been weakened by injuries and sickness. Number two m a n Vern Sterk has been sidelined f o r nearly two weeks because of a bad knee. Another runner, Mike Laughlin, missed the meets with Calvin and Albion because of bronchitis.

Inexperience Marks Wheaton Loss Wheaton's Crusaders blanked Hope, 20-0 last Saturday night at Holland's rain and windswept Riverview Park, as the Dutchmen suffered their second nonconference loss in two starts. Wheaton College scored their three tallies in the first half. Quarterback Dave Iha passed 11 yards to end Rodney Johnson for the first touchdown. Later Don Close intercepted a Dutch pass on the 30 and carried it to Hope's 22. After Wheaton moved the ball to Hope's six, Albie Harris scored for the Crusaders second
tally. With one second of play left in the first half, Harris again scored f r o m six yards out. Tom J a r m e n successfully converted after the second and third touchdowns. Learning f r o m their costly mistakes in the first half, Hope's defense didn't allow Wheaton to penetrate beyond the Dutch 44 in the second half. Coach Russ De Vette said, "We were pleased with the play of our boys, especially in the second half."
Academic Horizons:
Offensively, Hope drove to Wheaton's one-yard line early in the third quarter, but failed to score. Hope's scoring chance came when the Crusaders kicked out f r o m their 32 yard line. A f t e r J i m Bultman r a n the ball to Hope's 25. Sharky Vander Woude r a n a quarterback delay for 15 yards to the Wheaton 10. Fullback Steve Slaugh then powered to the one before being halted. Of the 27 men who played for Hope, 11 of these were freshmen.

(Continued from page 2) concrete action was taken, a preliminary charter was drafted by the twelve midwest colleges in Denver, and in April of last year, the GREAT LAKES COLLEGE ASSOCIATION came into being. At present the membership consists of Albion, Antioch, Earlham, Hope, Kenyon, Oberlin, Wabash, Kalamazoo, and Wooster colleges. Also included are Ohio Wesleyan, DePauw, and Denison Universities. New members shall be admitted to the association only by unanimous consent of all existing members. The association is governed by a board of directors which consists of the President of each member college. Executive responsibility for the administration of association policies and programs will rest with Dr. Eldon Johnson who has just recently been appointed to the position of President of the association. Dr. Johnson comes to the GREAT LAKES COLLEGE ASSOCIATION f r o m the University of New Hampshire where he has been a vigorous and imaginative administrator a n d educator. Much of the success of the association will depend upon Dr. Johnson bringing these same admirable qualities of leadership to his new position.
