Plan To Honor Moms, Dads Tomorrow Have you noticed, while walking down the halls in the dorms, the various articles of furniture jutting out at all angles into your path? Yes, Mom and Dad's Day is here once more and everyone is busy preparing for the arrival of the parents. Busy students scurry everywhere getting the campus ready for these Very Important People. Floors are being scrubbed and waxed, drawers and shelves are being cleaned and rooms are being tidied. Never before have the dorms looked so immaculate. If you are from East of Detroit or perhaps West of Sioux Center, your parents probably won't be making the trip out. It's very depressing to see everyone happily visiting with their relatives while you sit in the room alone. Why don't you borrow your roommate's parents f o r t h e day? Sharing is part of rooming together! Plans for the day include, first, recognizing all the parents at the Hope-Northern Ohio football game. Proud parents of Hope's Flying Dutchmen will be easily recognized as they sport the numbers of their son's jerseys.

There will be an opportunity to do this sometime in November. The editorial board of the Opus points out that by doing this they will be saving money which in turn they will use to improve the publication. Any Hope student may contribute to the Opus. Original creative works in the fields of art, drama, poetry, prose, and music may be submitted to the editorial board of this literary magazine. The board evaluates all the contributions and decides what will be included in the final publication.

Noel's operatic debut as Valentin in "Faust," in a cast including Raoul Jobin and Nadine Conner brought forth enthusiastic critical and audience acclaim. His career was immediately launched, and during the first two years, he sang over a dozen leading roles in the opera companies, prior to his Chicago Lyric Opera debut. As an opera singer and recitalist, Mr. Noel's popularity has increased . by leaps and bo u n d s : he is featured frequent'y o n coast-to-coast "Chica 0 & Theater of the Air" and " T h e Enchanted Hour" as well as 0 era P i n Chicago and New Orleans. Roles in Mr. Noel's repertoire include Rigoletto, Germont (La Traviata), Count di Luna (II Trovatore), Silvio and Tonio (Pagliacci), Figaro (The Barber of Seville), Gugielmo (Cosi Fan Tutte), and the three baritone parts in "Tales of Hoffmann."

Reeverts States Rules Governing Informal Clothes "Any girl may wear bermuda shorts for informal activity during the morning and afternoon on Saturdays, but they are not to be worn in the dining halls and in the lounge at any time," said Miss Emma Reeverts during a recent interview. Miss Reeverts, Dean of Women, is now devoting part of her time to the question of wearing informal clothes on campus. The women's House Board began action on this matter. "When the rule was put in," she stated, "it was thought that the girls would wear them for visiting their friends in other dormitories, cleaning up their rooms and going downtown for needed supplies. "However," she continued, "allowing the student to wear bermudas while studying in the library was something t h a t the administration did not think would happen." Since informal clothes are now an accepted part of Saturday wear in the library. Miss
Reeverts said that the administration feels that another question should be considered. "There is emphasis in every activity toward a high standard of propriety. Just as the college works diligently to see that the grounds of the campus are kept neat and that the academic standard of the college is kept high, so it is that the students should look appropriately dressed at all times," reported the Dean. "We as a college, want to measure up to high standards at all times and we must all strive to do it. It is all part of the whole." Miss Reeverts went on to explain why bermudas are not allowed in some parts of the campus, as the lounges of the various dorms. "This rule," she said, "means that students who linger in the lounge should not wear them. A college dormitory lounge is like a hotel lobby as the lounge in a YWCA and in most cases ber(Cont'd on page 3)

Dr. Kuizenga's chapel talks themselves consisted of the topics, "The Relevance of Prayer in the Atomic Age", "Prayer and Your Faith", and "Prayer and Your Future". The book.
Prayer and Personal Religion, was the basis for the discussion of this Spiritual Life Week. E x c h a n g e devotional programs and periods of meditation in the chapel were among the special features of the week. Dr. Kuizenga was also available for conferences with individuals interested in speaking with him throughout the week. The religious climax was the communion service, preceded by an opportunity f o r confession of faith, which was held in Dimnent chapel on Thursday evening. With candle light and devotional music, this service served as the finale to religious emphasis week.
This ended the twenty-third annual Nykerk Cup contest held in the Civic Center Saturday. Evi Carter, Interclass Chairman, was master of ceremonies. The first presentation was the Sophomore song, "It's a Big Wide Wonderful World" directed by Edna Hollander and accompanied by Ruth DeWitt. Next, Barb Walvoord, Freshman orator, stepped before the hushed audience and began her speech about "Reflections on the Forgotten Jewel." Their presentation was of the light, lilting song, " K e r r y Dance," directed by Evalyn Hollander and accompanied by Janet Hollander. Sophomore Play The atmosphere was then lightened by the play, "Be a Little Cuckoo," given by Sophomore women Judy Sietsema, Ruth Flikkema, Nancy Vanderkolk, Ellen Frink, and Renetta Dykstra. In a play within a play it was demonstrated t h a t a "cuckoo" had more than one meaning. The Freshman women, dressed in black skirts, black sweaters, and irish-scotch banners stood up.
Floats Next year's homecoming committee will act on floats, according to the Student Council. The societies voted by a 9-1 margin to continue float building on the old basis. However, suggestions were offered that the brother - sister societies build a float together and that the floats be displayed more on Saturday of Homecoming. Sophomore Orator "Three D Apathy" was Pat Vanderbeek, Sophomore orator's title. "The students in today's college," she admonished, "take the attitude of "Little Bo Peep" who sat around waiting f o r her sheep to come home rather than going out and finding them." "Today's students are apathetic academically, spiritually, and socially," she stated. Last, the Freshmen presented their dramatic rendition of "Little Prison." The audience was drawn to the end of their seats with f r u s tration as Freshmen K a r e n Crandall, Jane Woodby, Nancy Wees, Donna Davis, and Barb Blunt portrayed persons f r o m all walks of life trapped in an elevator. Psychological feelings were strained and tenseness prevailed in this modern play. Then, while the judges made their decision the apprehensive, disturbed audience and the nervous participants were entertained by the Arkie Quartet.

Valuable Or Value-less SL Week
Need Arises For Chapel Programs To improve
OK suppose you're a freshman and you're going to join a fraternity. You're going to profess undying friendship and loyalty to group of men, of whom you are actually acquainted with a small fraction. You are joining the Alpha Hernia fraternity because it's a "swell bunch of guys" or because all the other fraternities are hicks or alcoholics (hies) or teetotalers or mama's boys or bullys. Or because the Alpha Hernia is the only fraternity that sent you a bid, in which case the question becomes the simple problem of whether or not to join. No side issues here about which one. Human nature being what it is, you may be fairly certain that by the end of the year you will take an intense dislike to one or another of your "brothers." A fraternity, in other words, Meaning of is n o t just one big happy Fraternity family. It has its own little political maneuverings, jealousies, and private hypocricies like every other organization man has ever joined. Men do not become automatically friendlier or any easier to befriend simply by joining a fraternity. Real friendship, real cameraderie, does not organize itself, elect officers, collect dues from itself, and impose fines when its parties are not attended. If that is what you are hunting f o r you can find it perfectly well outside a fraternity. Why then do people join fraternities? — some already have friends, home-town or otherwise, among members of one fraternity. — some take a sort of masochistic pleasure in the beatings of Hell week. — some join to get power. — some join to escape the big cruel world outside. — some, like you perhaps, don't really care much why they're joining; they know only that everybody else is doing the same

thing. We say join then: you are the clay from which your leaders will mold perfect or-
ganization men. This is the end of the matter — THINK. You can always wait for a year to see in which fraternity most of your friendships develop, and then make up your mind. The chances are that if you aren't sure about it now you'll be a lot happier in your choice if you wait and think. — J . M.
Questioning ond Christianity The serious college student is often disturbed with many questions. As new vistas of knowledge open to him, he often realizes that many of his beliefs and opinions, especially those in the area of religion, are second-hand. He had accepted them without any doubts or reservations from his parents, teachers, or pastors when he was younger. Now that he is in a new environment, his experiences seem to lead him to feel that some, if not all, of his beliefs and ideas are contrary to life as he sees it. He no longer knows whom to believe or what to accept as the truth. He then consciously or unconsciously turns to R. E. Week or Spiritual Life Week to solve his problems and to set him straight again. Yet was Spiritual Life Week designed as a solve-all-yourproblems week? Let's hope n o t ! For each and every student must interpret his growing experience of life for himself. He must answer to himself whether he is growing more or less spiritual, whether he is growing closer to God or further away. ^ n e s u S g e s t i o n made was that we may solve our problems SL Week by examining several different points of view. But again, was this to be the purpose of Spiritual Life Week? Shouldn't we approach the problem in quite another way? For Spiritual Life Week must not become a short course in comparative religions. We do not objectively judge the religious lives of others and then select what appears to be best for our lives. It is not the question of one set of beliefs over against another. But rather the vital element in religion is the dynamic personal fellowship with the living God. There is only one alternative! As a result of Spiritual Life Week we should not be so concerned with the "Nazarene's teachings" as with the Nazarene himself: not with what we know about him but the fact that we can know him. It is only when he who professes Christianity meets his Lord as a living reality, face to face, only when he is caught up and spoken to in every fiber of his being, that he will be able to meet his doubts.

be good psychology" but heavViews en's power manifested on earth. For he then lives in Christ, and having plunged f a r beyond questions of form and content he has answered life's greatest question: "Oh that I knew where I might find Him!" Therefore we should never hesitate in our questioning of the old answers. For this is the exercise of our God-given ability to separate sense from nonsense, the true from the false, the real from the unreal. This is the only way t h a t we can move from second-hand beliefs to first-hand personal convictions. It is a divine imperative to use our whole beings to improve and to grow—to make more real and more meaningful our spiritual life. . W.
by Don Gallo A week, declared Spiritual Life Week, is quickly becoming a part of the past, though still a part of the present in some of our thoughts and conversations. The week has meant different things to many people, naturally. Some, students and faculty members attended most of the chapel services, d i s c u s s i o n groups, and devotional groups; others preferred to separate themselves from the group and learn by observing the seemingly meaningless actions and prayers of others. The manner in which the week contributed to our spiritual life depended upon how much we attempted to utilize the opportunities of listening, discussing, thinking, and communing with God. Perhaps some now understand a little better how to pray so as to experience a little more of the greatness of the One to whom their prayers are directed. A few feel no differently, are no different, maybe will never be different. Others possibly have merely gathered from their observations additional material to add to the long list of hypocracies which are committed at Hope College. "There is nothing new under the sun." But is all this vanity ?
Certainly one of the most discussed subjects on campus is the morning Chapel program. Most of this discussion is of the negative type. It concerns from how poor the method of taking attendance is to the programs themselves. What is Chapel? Chapel has become a place to study, sleep, read and gossip. Very few people listen to what is going on—myself included. I feel that this situation could and should be remedied. How? Through the presentation of worthwhile programs. I feel that there are several things that could be done to make Chapel more interesting. We are fortunate on this campus to have excellent musical organizations. I'm sure that a program of sacred music would be more meaningful to many people than fifteeen minutes of Bible reading. I do not mean for just the choirs to participate in this but all the musical groups. This would include the orchestra, band, symphonette, etc. Religious Drama Groups We are also fortunate in having fine religious drama groups. A reading or sacred presentation would also hold the student's attention much more than a ten minute talk. This type of thing was done only once last year but it had very good results. I believe that
this should be done again and more often this year. I also feel t h a t the type of program in which one minister spoke f o r a week as presented a few weeks ago is a good idea. This gives the speaker the opportunity to dwell on one thought f o r a whole week. In this manner, the student does not get an entirely different thought every time he goes to Chapel but is able to follow one main idea. Paid Minister Needed Lastly, I think t h a t a paid minister to act as the Dean of the Chapel is a necessity. This person would be in charge of planning a 11 the Chapel programs. He would not lead all of them but would see to it that a great deal of thought was put into each one. This dean or chaplain, if you wish to call him that, would also act as a counselor to those students who feel the need f o r religious guidance. It seems strange that we can have four academic deans but not one chaplain. I feel that there is a definite need f o r better Chapel programs. Only when the student wishes to go to Chapel as a voluntary gesture, will the Chapel program have acquired it's goal. Sincerely, Jim Mulder
The Inquiring Reporter Seeks Opinions About W e a r i n g Bermudas by Jane Tomlinson In one of the letters to the editor in last Friday's Anchor the problem of rules governing women's wearing bermudas on campus is discussed. I t has been brought to my attention that there is another rule which prohibits men from wearing bermudas to meals. Vinie Kleyla: First of all, I'm confused. When we (freshmen) first got here I was hit with "freshmen men" report here or there and "freshmen women" go here. Then as we reported to classes, Mr. or Miss was called upon to signify his or her presence. I shortly got used to this; a f t e r eighteen years of being treated like a kid, somebody was going to give me the benefit of the doubt and treat me like an adult. Sometime later a clog appeared in this false sense of security as hypocritical rules and regulations began appearing. I have not taken a course in logic yet and perhaps due to the forever questioning mind of a freshman youth I cannot figure out why in class they outwardly treat us like adults but dictate to us what we can and cannot wear. I'm sure t h a t if the decision of wearing bermudas were left in the hands of Hope College men and women, nothing but the finest and most moral results would occur. Paul Hesselink: In principle, I think students, being governed by propriety and modesty,
V-
should be permitted to wear whatever they desire at any time. But let us remember that rules of this sort must generally be made for the "benefit" of those who either have or exercise no discretion or discrimination. Barbara Walvoord: Is it really worth all this just to be able to expose our knees to the public eye a little more often ? We're not fighting f o r a principle! We're fighting f o r nonsense. If we win, where will we be ? We'll have just what we started out for—a triviality that makes no difference in our total freedom or lack of it. Who cares ?! Sandra DeKoning: My sentiments are very much the same as those expressed by Lois Bonnema and Joanie Clayton. I see nothing wrong with wearing bermuda shorts in the library on Saturday, or any other day f o r t h a t matter. A f t e r all, we are supposed to be adults (or
almost) and it seems ridiculous that we are not given enough credit or chance to judge for ourselves what is and isn't proper attire. It is not so much the condemnation of bermudas to which I object, but rather the deprivation of any opportunity to use our own judgment in the matter. If the Hope men were told they would be permitted to wear long underwear to meals, or the women, pantaloons, how many would take advantage of this and jump on the bandwagon? Bill Drake: In regard to men wearing bermudas to meals, I agree with the stated rule that they shall be prohibited in any dining halls. It is proper in my mind because it doesn't seem like the proper dress f o r such a place. I myself, think that women wearing bermudas on campus should be permitted.

However, they don't seem to realize that their family living room is much more private than a dormitory lounge. "T h e students' dormitory room is their real home," she said. Miss Reeverts stated that rules governing informal dress also apply to the men on campus. "Presently," she reported, "male students are not allowed to wear bermudas in the halls."

["Behind the Mike," a new feature of the Hope College Anchor concerned mainly with the activities of WTAS, the Anchor station, replaces "The Gadabout," which appeared in the Homecoming issue of the Anchor. — ED.] By Milton Nieuwsma CHUCK HALE, whose resignation as program director from WTAS was made formal at an executive meeting last Saturday, can now devote full time to meeting the grade requirements on an "extra-curricular activities" scholarship awarded him before he entered Hope as a transfer student last year. Chuck got his scholarship while attending a junior college in Jamestown, N. Y., his home town. Now a senior (and a history major), he wants to teach the handicapped after graduation. His reasons for resigning were not divulged for publication. He'll keep his late Friday night show, "The Sleepwalker" (11 p.m. - 1 a.m.), though. Unlike some other "dee-jays" who talk their ways in and out (and sometimes not) of holes between each record, Chuck is known as WTAS' "straight-man." His program is rated among the best on the Anchor station. » • »

Van Eyl Working Toward Doctorate Mr. Philip Van Eyl, professor in Hope's psychology department, was scheduled to begin work this week on a detailed experiment that will earn for him a doctorate in his field. In a recent interview, Mr. Van Eyl established that his experiment will elaborate on a recently discovered approach to perception, including additional information of his own finding. The actual experiment will be performed on the campus using 120 student volunteers from various psychology classes as subjects. As each participant is to be treated individually, the collection of data will probably not be completed until the end of the semester. It then remains to Mr. Van Eyl to evaluate his findings and assimilate definite statistics. Hope's new professor stated, "I am extremely interested in this type of experimental psychology."

COACH FRANK "MUDDY" WATERS of Hillsdale, in a WTAS interview following the Hope-Hillsdale game: "I'd like to clarify one thing that was in the papers that attributed me to making a remark t h a t we were 80 per cent better than Hope. "That was a vast misquotation. What I actually said was that 1 thought our passing game this year was 80 per cent better than it was last year. For us — and not for you — somehow it got twisted up. ". . . Somebody once told me that if you don't want to be misquoted you should use a profane word every other word," he said. » » » Congressional investigators are turning from fixed TV quiz shows to charges that disc jockeys accept millions of dollars a year in bribes to flood the air with certain records, especially rock V roll. They'd find a different problem on their hands if they'd investigate WTAS. Not only are a few dee-jays being dismissed from the staff for playing too much rock V roll, but one — Rich Brand ("Music for Friday Afternoon," 4-5:30 p . m . ) — e v e n takes bribes to gab less and play more records. « e • THE GADABOUT," my column in the Homecoming issue of the Anchor, is now defunct. I was informed t h a t a Chicago radio personality — Paul Salinar on WGN — uses the same title for his show. I try to be as original as I can — although I sometimes make a mess of it — so I'm changing the subject and title of my column to "Behind the Mike" — that is, until I find out that somebody else copped on to it earlier. The column — if it lasts — will appear roughly every two weeks. Next time we'll discuss ratings, unless something more important breaks — like maybe the station gets fixed (the kind of fixing so more people can listen to WTAS).

WTAS will carry a delayed broadcast of the Hope College-Ohio Northern (Mom and Dad's Day) football game tomorrow, 8-10:30 p.m. Steve Morse, pre-sem freshman, will do the beer ads and "color" (commentary between plays, during time outs, etc.) and your's truly — I needed to plug this somewhere — will interrupt now and then with the play-by-play. About two persons heard the rebroadcast of the HopeHillsdale game last Friday night because of technical misfortunes (which the technical staff under Bob Van Etten is trying to correct). Poor reception was probably a good thing, though, since it was the first football broadcast attempted by WTAS. Also, WTAS hopes to find a vacant broadcast booth — instead of the grandstand — for the game tomorrow.

Behind the Mike
Dear Editor: We could do well to take our last edition of the Anchor out of our file and reread the editorial entitled: "Can Spiritual Life Week Mean Anything." The author has made certain assumptions that are the product of personal opinion and has taken the undue authority to credit them to the committee organizing our Spiritual Life Week. According to the editorial this committee's "reasoning" seems to be that active participation in the prayer groups and discussions is necessary in order that the term "prayer" can mean anything. Definitely this is not "sound reasoning" and the author need not be concerned about throwing suspicion on anyone by the statement. But how dare we have the audacity to suggest that fellowship and discussion of vital aspects of the Christian faith are not necessities! This isn't merely an idea "thought up" by a group of students and faculty. It is obedience to the Lord who said, "Forsake not the assembling of yourselves together." In fact this is so necessary that Christ compared a Christian to a branch which removed from the fire lost its own flame. We should be careful when we assume what constitutes the attitude of another lest we reveal our own erroneous reasoning. Certainly there are many ways of communicating with God. Solitary meditation is extremely important, but we should not neglect the "assemblng together" because in unity there is strength. Let's not forget that the same Christ who said, "Go into your closets to pray," also said, "Where two or three are gathered together in My name I am in the midst of them." —Jean Scholten

Cross-Countrymen Fourth In M I A A

by Jack Jenner A scant 32 seconds separated the first place Hope College cross-countryman f r o m t h e fourth as the Dutchmen swept all first four places en route to a 45-16 victory over Olivet Saturday which rang down the curtain on the dual meet portion of the 1959 MIAA season. Pounding out his fastest race of the season on the cool, crisp afternoon was Ann Arbor freshman Fred Colvin who maneuvered the 4.2-mile course at Olivet in 22:51. By virtue of this performance, Colvin erased a sizable block of 37 seconds off his previous low mark of 23:28, recorded against Hillsdale two weeks ago. Hope's trio following Colvin,
each member of which chalked up his best time of the season, was comprised of Randy Menken (2nd, 22:54), Rolland Schut (3rd, 22:55), and Fred Overkamp (4th, 23:23). Olivet's Bill Kinsey copped team honors by running a fifth-place 23:25 race. Other finishers f o r Hope included Dave Maris (6th, 23:41), Dave Needham (8th, 24:18), John Murdock (9th, 24:26), Harry Wristers (11th, 25:07), Considering dual meets alone, the win over O l i v e t placed Coach A1 Vanderbush's harriers at the fourth rung of the MIAA ladder. Above were C a l v i n (1st), Kalamazoo (2nd), and Albion (3rd) while Adrian, Alma, Hillsdale, and Olivet closed out the bottom.

Knicks Cop Title With Record of 6-0 by Gerry Wolf Last week along with the first snow saw the last of this fall's intramural football games. The Knicks, employing an unusual spread formation, took the football title with a record of 6-0. Even the Emersonians, who were on the bottom of the standings, were out fighting gallantly while enjoying themselves. The lone remaining game on the schedule was between the Arkies and the Seminary. As a side note, last week a post season touch football game was played on the frozen turf by a hearty group of fellows from the Cosmopolitan Fraternity. The underclassmen from the Cosmos must have been more awake then their Senior brothers, for they won 18-12. On November 30 the basketball season starts with two individual leagues playing on separate evenings. With Hope having noteworthy interscholastic squads, intramural basketball should prove to be good and rugged for the many remaining ball players availing themselves of the opportunity to play intramural basketball. Intramurals, which tries to give everyone an opportunity to participate in sports activities, is mainly f o r the fraternities who support the program diligently here at Hope.

Gridmen Swamp Olivet 42-0; Finish M.I.A.A. Season Second by Paul Armstrong Sub-zero temperatures and a discouraged Olivet eleven could not freeze the Flying Dutchmen, as they hit paydirt six times at Green Field last Saturday night in a victory which clinched second place in the M. I.A.A. Although the cold was discomforting to the players and the understandably small crowd, it provided a firm running surface which was in sharp contrast to the previous game against Hillsdale. Other unusual conditions included a pre-game warm-up period in the dark, due to a lighting failure, and the absence of "hash marks" on the poorly lined field. Easy Win Despite such particulars, Hope had little trouble picking up its seventh win while handing Olivet its fifth loss. The Hope line consistently opened gaping holes in the Olivet defense, through which the Hope backfield ground out 302 yards and five touchdowns.

Six Conversions Co-captain Bill Huibregtse split the uprights in the first of six successful conversions. Junior Halfback John Vandenbur^ plunged over later in the first period, and before the teams left the field for a welcome halftime period, Hendrickson scored again on a 35 yard end run. As expected. Olivet showed signs of a potentially dangerous passing attack, averaging 24 yards per completion, but was hampered by the discouraging fact that it had to play most of the game on defense. Olivet Weak Indicative of this is the fact that Olivet gathered only six first downs during the entire game. In the last quarter, Hendrickson helped set up another score with a pass interception, and Vandenburg plunged over f o r his s e c o n d score of the game. Freshman Halfback Bob Teall, a native Hollander, made it 35-0 on a ten yard jaunt, while.an• • •# •'» •# •'* »•# V#

other Freshman combination clicked for the final TD, an eight yard pass from Quarterback Howie Glupker to Jon Schoon. It was a successful night for the Orange and Blue dampened only by the expected news that Hillsdale mopped Kalamazoo College 48 to 7 to make their 1959 M.I.A.A. championship official. This game marked the final action of the 1959 M.I.A.A. season for both Olivet and Hope. The Dutchmen have one more game remaining, against Ohio Northern at Riverview Park tomorrow. Starting time will be 1:30.
