TEDDY MEULENDYKE During the last f e w weeks we have been directing our intellectual faculties toward problems of American neutrality in the light of the present European war. It is extremely important for us, as thinking Americans, to give serious attention to so vital an issue. EMBARGO IS DEAD ISSUE But t h a t issue has been settled now. Regardless of how we sided in the recent neutrality debate before congress, t h e f a c t remains t h a t a law has been passed and the a r m s embargo has been repealed. I do not believe t h a t this should be regarded as a step toward European entanglement. It is the American people themselves who will eventually determine the s t r e n g t h of our military aloofness. Moreover, the possible effects of t h e Neutrality Law have been discussed in a previous "As I See It." I am here concerned with another problem. I am wondering whether our minds have been so busy struggling with international law, cash and carry, a r m s embargo, the crushing of Hitlerism, and the preservation of world democracy that we have been neglecting to think about the democracy issues in America? WHAT ABOUT HOME I S S U E S ? Any war, regardless of whether we participate or not, is bound to place our democratic theory of government in a position of serious jeopardy. The emergency powers put into the hands of the administrative head, during a war and previous to it, are a direct challenge to American democracy in any event. In view of the fact t h a t the present administration has been extremely anxious to promote planned government economy and regulation of agriculture, commerce, and industry, even in times of peace, we can well afford to be on our guard in defense of our traditional principles of American living. NEUTRALITY MEANS PREPAREDNESS As I have indicated before, the passage of the present Neutrality Act is not a necessary indication that America will become involved in the present war. This does not mean, however, that we do not have the right to be interested in preparedness—preparedness in the line of our thinking as well as our military activity. Already the present executive has been given an extension of military control. In the event of war, there are at present bills before congress which would give this administration emergency influence never known before. EMERGENCY POWERS ENDANGER FREEDOM It' is true that the president could not do without extended power in the time of an emergency. But at the same time, the statutes which have reference to the emergency powers of the president are indefinite and casual enough to provide for dangerous applications. Any administration desiring to change our present way of government to a socialized system could go a long way in that direction. We cannot afford to ignore this possibility. Whether or not we become involved, there can be no doubt that this war is threatening America with a definite increase in socialism. In the face of this threat, we, as young people, have a challenge —a challenge to keep above the tide of socialistic philosophy with our traditional spirit of democratic courage and initiative.

Association of American Universities Sanction Means Step Up for Hope Opportunities for Graduate Work The placement of Hope college on the approved list of the Association of American Universities was announced yesterday by President Wynand Wichers, upon receipt of a letter from Frank H.

Hadden, Horton Orate Fresh Have Orchestra Sophs Feature Chorus Soph-frosh rivalry will be climaved Monday night at 7:30 in Carnegie Gym as coeds of the two classes meet in the fifth annual Nykerk Cup contest. Sophomore chairman Beth Marcus and freshman chairman Jean Horton completed plans this week for the competition, while senior Virginia Ellison, sophomore advisor, and junior Ruth De Young, freshman advisor, announced details of the event. Oratorical honors will go to either Peggy Hadden or Jean Horton in Monday night's contest. Peggy Hadden will speak f o r the sophomore class on a subject dealing with compulsory chapel attendance. Jean Horton has announced h e r topic as "Balance Which B u d g e t ? " The musical part of the evening holds surprises by both classes. Sophomore chairman Beth Marcus disclosed only t h a t the class of '42 would f e a t u r e a chorus with violin accompaniment. Ruth De Young stated that the frosh would have a popular orchestra including: Baibara Folensbee, drums; Ruth Hoeksema, t r u m p e t ; Pauline Loew, violin; Betty Vyverberg, piano. Tryouts for the orchestra's vocalist were held last Monday and the freshman selected has not been announced. "Rehearsal" is the name given for the sophs dramatic production, advisor Virginia Ellison announced. Norma Becksfort, Alice Bosch, Betty Daugherty, Beth Marcus, Nola Nies and Betsy Race are included in the cast. Frosh dramatis personae f o r the play, "Glamour Girl," has not been named.

Choose Hope Extemp. Delegate At the local extempore contest held here on November 7, Robert Verburg was chosen to represent the college in the Michigan Intercollegiate Speech League's extempore meet in Kalamazoo on November 28. Prepared to speak on the general subject, "National Political Issues and the 1940 Election," Mr. Verburg drew "President Roosevelt and the Third Term Issues" as the topic for his contest speech. He will prepare to speak on the same general subject for the state meet. John Westhof, a second participant in the contest, spoke on a phase of "Civil Service." Due to the f a c t t h a t there were no local contestants in the women's division, there will be no women represented a t the s t a t e contest this year.

habituated ourselves to a negative frame of mind. It will be well lor us to remember t h a t achievements such as today's honor rest on the enlightened conservatism of Hope's policy and practice. Stillness is the characteristic of deep waters; and it is they t h a t effect the fundamental and lasting improvements. The honor given us by the A. A.

Products Wrapped in Cellophane

Blue Key to Plan

Will Soon Drive All of Us Insane-Ling Po Cellophane is slowly but surely driving humanity insane. And it is such a mild appearing stuff, too. It has a clear frank look—like a blonde, but it is twice as deadly. A blonde will give up, if handled right. But cellophane never lets go. We have no especial desire to boost the s i l e of straitjackets, but if sometime you would care to satisf y yourself about the menace of cellophane, just try to get a small caramel away from a small piece of it. When candy is so wrapped the manufacturer has practically made the cellophane a present of the candy. You can pick and pull and squeeze and yank, and it makes not the slightest impression on the wrapper. If there is an end to it anywhere, it is invisible. It lies flat and transparent. You can see

A f t e r consulting the final list the aforementioned committee will send out s t a t e m e n t s to reach all new girls on S a t u r d a y morning, telling them whether or not they have been pledged to a society. Societies, a f t e r receiving t h e i r lists on S a t u r d a y morning a t 9 o'clock, will proceed to welcome their pledges. Each society has planned a full day of activity to welcome the new members.

Commenting on the selection, President Wichers said, " W e are pleased with the placement. It is an achievement f o r which we have worked and aspired f o r ten years. We consider the honor a challenge to maintain high academic standa r d s and to continue the development of a J i n e r institution. We will immediately apply for placement on the approved list of Association of American University Women, so that alumni women may join their local chapter." The coveted r a t i n g is based primarily on the scholastic character of the u n d e r g r a d u a t e institution. According to the Association's memorandum, " t h e chief regard for inclusion . . . (is) evidence t h a t the college is successful in a high degree in stimulating scholarly interest in its students and in p r e p a r i n g them for more advanced scholarly endeavor." The number of Hope alumni doing g r a d u a t e work in leading g r a d u a t e , professional and research institutions, and their success, is one of the bases f o r determining inclusion. Impressive is the f a c t t h a t onethird of Hope's students have gone into g r a d u a t e study. Steps for approval of Hope college were s t a r t e d in F e b r u a r y , 1938, when formal application for inspection was made by college officials to the Committee of Classification. Notice of the Committee's acceptance of the application came November, 1938, and was followed in May, of this year, by the visit of inspector Dr. E. B. Fred, Dean of the g r a d u a t e school of the University of Wisconsin, to Hope's campus. The report of Dr. F red was approved three weeks ago, when the Board of the A. A. U. met at Columbia, Missouri. Other considerations for approval include the character and quality of the student body, the faculty and conditions under which it works, the administration of the institution, its endowments, its lib r a r y , its laboratories, its educational facilities of all sorts, its curriculum, and its c h a r a c t e r as an institution. These s t a n d a r d s a r e only relative, however, since minimum limits m u s t be surpassed before the college is universally recognized as a strong school. o-

Student Council To Sponsor Forum Announcement that the monthly College Forum will be sponsored by the Student Council from now on, was made yesterday by the Council. The governing body was petitioned for sponsorship by Anchor Editor Robert Bonthius, who said that such an all-college function should be put in the hands of student representatives. Last Wednesday's Forum featured a debate on the question of isolation. In the group discussion, following the debate, the majority of the group of forty favored isolation as the best American policy. Today's Anchor sports a new name-plate, done in the modem manner. Technically it's called "Tourist Gothic" but for all practical purposes it may be called "smart"

On the o t h e r side, t h e r e was a group of 200 per cent New Dealers, who would support F. D.

Bittersweet compensation for such political footballing may be found in the 21 Republicans who risked party censure by voting f o r the repeal and the 36 Democrats who conscientiously cast their votes for retention. But these .57 were not alone in voting on the merits of the case.

December 5th Date Set For First Case Tilt Here Albion Britons End M.I.A.A. Season Undefeated; Take Football Crown

To Open New Cage Season Dutch Quintet Will Face Ferris

IN THE PRESSBOX by Eddie Dibble*

Hillsdale's Champions Girls Elect Swimming, of Last Year Bowling, Basketball Greatest Obstacle For Winter Sports The Hope College gridders hung their moleskins f o r another year as they cinched third place in the MIAA standings, last Saturday, when Albion handed the Hingamen a 13-7 defeat in a hard-fought grid battle. Hillsdale and Gordon Piatt had trimmed the Dutch 30-6 before a homecoming crowd of 3,500, the previous Saturday, f o r the first Hope loss of the season. Pre-season dope had the Dales finishing in first place, the Britons in second, so the touchdown t h a t F r a s e r of Albion tacked up by running a punt was more than a score, more than a winning touchdown. Upon this tally, as later events were to prove, hung the league championship. The Hillsdale eleven looke big and tough against Hope here, and a comparison of the score of that game (Dales 30, Hope 6) as against Albion's 13 against Hope would make the experts look wise. However, the f a c t s are t h a t HarWood's men are in second place, and Hope is in third. Kazoo follows us (and it must be admitted t h a t they owe most of their seasons success to two men, Danny Wood and Paul Van Keuren. The Hornets seemed to have more than the usual number of bad breaks this year. Alma, Adrian, and Olivet share the cellar positions. Faculty and students extend their sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Hinga on the death of Mr, Hinga's f a t h e r yesterday.

At the W.A.A. meeting last Wednesday afternoon specific plans were made f o r the winter schedule of sports f o r women. Athletic Advisor, Jack Schouten, stated t h a t the schedule would including bowling, swimming, and basketball. It is the hope of the board that the " Y " pool in Grand Rapids may be reserved f o r Hope girls on Monday evenings between 8 and 9 o'clock. All girls interested in going swimming during the winter season are urged to sign up either with Mr. Schouten or Jean Wishmeier, who is in charge of swimming. Classes for both beginners and advanced swimmers will be conducted. It is the hope of the W.A.A. t h a t there will be enough girls interested to make the trips to Grand Rapids a worthwhile project. Bowling and basketball were also discussed at the meeting. It was announced that girls could go bowling at the Holland bowling alley, but to get the benefit of the special rate they must go in groups of twenty. Bowling days are Monday and Tuesday of one week and Thursday and Friday of alternate weeks. Althea Raffenaud, who is in charge of basketball, stated that the same plan would be followed this year as was followed last year. Teams will be chosen and intramural games will be played every Tuesday and Thursday evening a f t e r "Y". All of these sports will begin soon a f t e r Thanksgiving week-end.

In this edition we intended to bring our readers the names of those mighty warriors of the gridiron who during the past season earned tiieir football letters, but such is not to be the case, The athletic board has not yet announced these names, but promises to make them known as soon as possible. Mac is measuring all prospective emblem wearers, so if you feel that you have one coming, don't fail to see Mac. With the award of the letters, the 1939 gridiron season is officially closed. In spite of the two defeats in the last games it was not a t all an unsuccessful one. The team was much stronger this year than last, and had g r e a t e r reserve strength. The backfield held a better a r r a y of passing, punting and kicking than it did the previous year. It was both f a s t and hard hitting. Even in our worst defeat (Homecoming game against Hillsdale) we held our own on the ground. F i r s t downs were eleven f o r Hillsdale, ten f o r the Dutch. Had it not been f o r the phenomenal passing by P i a t t coupled with the fingertip catching of Larson, there would have been no such score. . High point of the season was the defeat of the Kazoo Hornets a t the hands of the Hingamen for the first time in MIAA grid history. ..Until this year. Coach Hinga, himself a Kazoo grad, had not been able to beat a football team from his alma mater. Of the three new men f r o m G. R. Junior who have been valuable aditions to the team this year, one who has done as fine a job as his two mates, but has suffered the comparative obscurity that is the penalty of a linesman when compaied with a backfield man, is Bob Hudson. The three are Bob Idema, Bob Montgomery, and the j u s t mentioned Bob Hudson. We gravely salute those who are now alumni in the Order of The Pads and Helmet, those who have played their last grid game f o r Hope. Their spirit and grit will not be soon forgotten. They are Bob VanderLaan, quarterback, Ken Honholt, end, Lee Brannock, right half, Red Luidens, tackle. Buzz Poppen, quarter, John Dinkeloo, end and finally. Captain Bob Powers, center. To Powers we award the following positions ; most valuable man on the team, and a center job on the Little All-American. Basketball s t a r t s at home Dec. 5 when we meet Ferris. How the season will go I will not attempt to predict other than 0o say we will not be anywhere near the cellar. While he had been here, Coach Hinga's teams have won 48 and lost 23. We were in the playoffs the last two years, champs the year before. Nuff said?

D e p a r t m e n t a l g r o u p s concerned themselves with a p p r o a c h e s to their other g r o u p s continued concentram a j b r curricular problems, while tion upon the aims and purposes of a liberal a r t s college, comprehensive examinations a n d evaluation of total college p r o g r a m . Monday's conference w a s the first of m o n t h l y visits with the central staff men. The study itself is being c a r r i e d on all the t i m e in cooperation with the other 21 colleges who are concerned with similar problems. P r o f . Albert T i m m e r , Hope liason officer of the Cooperative Study, said. The cooperation ef the 22 colleges through f r e q u e n t conferences and correspondence is the unique benefit of this type of survey. "The study is an intensive search into :he real purposes and accomplishments of general education, w i t h a better college p r o g r a m as the resultant objective," P r o f . T i m m e r stated. M a k i n g imperative such studies is the g r e a t increase in the number of s t u d e n t s e n t e r i n g college. College enrollment today is more than 333% of w h a t it w a s t w e n t y years ago. T h i s influx is made up largely of s t u d e n t s who are not heading for work in the professions. For this reason a re-evaluation of the liberal a r t s college's p r o g r a m of general education (or non-professional education) is made necessary.
