All s e a t s are reserved and it would be advisable to secure your tickets as soon as possible since t h e r e will be a big demand due to the f a c t t h a t it is Homecoming weekend.
The rules f o r this y e a r ' s pull can be summed up as follows: 1. Each team shall have 15 minutes to dig holes f o r themselves. 2. All signals to begin digging, begin pulling, stand up or get off the rope shall be given by the pull chairman. 3. The pull area shall be fenced off with snow fences within 10 feet of any pull member. Within this area only 3 coaches, 18 team members, 18 morale girls and 3 referees shall be allowed. Any other persons entering the designated pull a r e a will disqualify the team. Sophomore coaches Tom Ten Hoeve and Jim Galer, as well as F r e s h m a n coaches Joe Martin and Dave Kinkema ask t h a t spectators rigidly adhere to the third rule since their t e a m s will be automatically disqualified f o r any violation. Approximately 20 sophomores and 40 f r e s h m e n reported f o r practice which s t a r t e d October 10th. Coaches f o r both teams feel t h a t they have material which will shape up into teams worthy of t h e pull traditions.
Homecoming Chairman, G o r d Hondorp reports that plans f o r the celebration of Homecoming 1955 are well under way. Two special events have been added to the usual Homecoming schedule — the announcement of the Queen and her court on Monday, October 17, and the Frosh-Soph Pull on Friday, October 21, which f o r the past few years has been on the second week of F r e s h m a n initiation. In previous years the queen has been elected by a few male students and faculty members. This year the council decided t h a t a popular vote would better represent the choice of the student body. Each class has selected f o u r candidates f o r the queen and her court. These sixteen candidates will be presented to the student body in a 4th hour assembly. A vote will be taken the same day with each person voting f o r two members f r o m each class. Thus, each class will still be represented by two members. The queen and her court will then be announced a t a short meeting of the student body on the Monday preceding the Homecoming game. During the following week she will receive much publicity and will be t h e object of attention on the campus and in the a r e a surrounding Holland. In this way, not only the queen, but also the school and Homecoming week-end will profit. The theme, book titles, will be taxing the intellectual and muscular a t t r i b u t e s of the campus as house decorations and float construction is undertaken. The Homecoming committee this years includes: Gord Hondorp — general chairman Don Kroes — parade Bob Bedingfield — pep rally Chuck Pettingill — the pull Barb Klomparens, Charmaine Vandermyde — queen's coronation .Ethel Ann Peelen, Ralph Korteling — queen's float Ethel Smith, Ed Vander Kooy — house decorations Herb Widmer — queen's election Jim Neevel — half-time ceremonies Bob Ritsema — field decorations LI Lois Hoeksema — publicity,.

Until the moment when the sun sets upon Homecoming celebration, there will be little rest f o r the members of H o p e ' s sororities either. The construction of parade floats, and the a r r a n g e m e n t s f o r the welcoming of alumni are the most vital projects. Everyone will be driving hard to complete the work to be done. The chairmen of the individual floats will probably be the most harassed in these last f e w days of preparation.

Seminary, Fraters Score Grid Wins As the Intramural Touch Football season rolls on, and the competitive spirit grows, the result has been rougher, higher scoring games. This past week, barring one rained out game, the style of play was intensely gruelling. All the action took place on Monday, October 3, as the Seminary Powerhouse rolled over the Knicks, 24-0, and the F r a t e r s eeked out a 14-12 win over the scrappy Independents. The Gosmo-Arkie tilt, previously slated f o r Wednesday, October 5, and called because of rain, has been re-scheduled f o r October 12. Once again, the Seminarians, who have proved to be almost unbeatable in the past f e w seasons, crushed their opposition by a count of 24-0. Quarterback Bob Smith hurled three touchdown passes to end Tom Keizer, and Grinny Van Hoeven, MIAA t e r r o r f o r three years, ran f o r the other. Meanwhile the men of F r a t e r n a l had a much less easy time disposing of the Independents. The 14-12 victory was, to say the least, very unimpressive. A f t e r the F r a t e r s had taken a big lead, the Indies, powered by a mixture of veterans and speedy f r e s h m a n , f o u g h t back. F r a t e r field general Pete Bylenga and fleet end Dave Spaan teamed up f o r two scoring plays, the l a t t e r on the receiving end of passes. Then came the big break. With the Indies deep in their own territory, the pigskin eluded the outstretched hands of the quarterback, skidded past and into the end zone, giving the F r a t e r s a s a f e t y which eventually was the margin of victory. From then on, the Indies dominated, but their two touchdowns were to no avail. N e x t week: Monday, October 17 — Arkies vs. Emmies; Indies vs. Seminary. Wednesday, October 19—Cosmos vs. F r a t e r s .

Through The Keyhole A f t e r an extremely disappointing display by our football team in last Saturday's encounter with the Hornets of Kazoo, it would seem that the time has come f o r us to go through a process of introspection in an a t t e m p t to discover just where our difficulties lie. True, we still display an unbelievably ragged pass defense; and t r u e we still haven't learned the fundamental procedures of low, hard tackling and crisp, sure blocking, but these are just academic difficulties which we hope are well on there way toward being remedied. It appears t h a t our most real, and greatest, difficulty lies in a more abstract vein — t h a t of lack of spirit. And now, lest all my avid readers sit back and rail with selfrighteous indignation the spiritlessness of our team, let me hasten to say t h a t the f a u l t lies equally in you — yes you, the spiritless, spineless, voiceless f a n . You, collegegoing f a n , are now grown up. You have reached t h a t high peak of adult sophistication which would naturally prohibit you f r o m being present with unrequited enthusiasm at athletic contests and making manifest your vocal support as do the members of the Holland Safety patrol. So, since the conclusion has been reached t h a t you will never make audible your support of our gridders, let me not be like Voltaire, with only a torch for burning and no h a m m e r f o r building. Allow me, with t h a t thought in mind, to make a f e w humble suggestions toward morale building which could serve to t r a n s f o r m our team f r o m its machine-like existence into a virtual dynamo of spirit and power; enabling it to function a t the fullest extent of its capabilities. F i r s t of all we would suggest that the students take a n active interest in the team, not only on Saturday afternoon, but all week long. Speak to them about their practice and their progress! Secondly, we would suggest coming out and watching practice occasionally. If one would observe this disheartening d r u d g e r y he would not be so quick to criticize when things go wrong, f o r he
would know the difficulty through which they are performed. Rain or shine, foul weather or f a i r , a player must be present f o r his dailytask of preparing himself f o r the weekend. If people would show up to lend some moral support a t this time of trial the results would undoubtedly be very g r a t i f y i n g on S a t u r d a y afternoon. The team would also be happy to have a group of students see them off when they leave f o r away g a m e s ; and we're sure the cheerleaders as well as the team would be overjoyed at a little enthusiastic backing at pep rallies.
Waaaaa?? I n t r a m u r a l volleyball got off to a running, leaping, levatating, gravity defying commencement this Fall. Over one hundred amazons, organized into eight teams, competed at Carnegie-Schouten Gymnasium. Monday night the gym was also the scene of the first thrilling, exciting, spine tingling, suspense packed matches in the mixed doubles badminton competition. Hiking, horse-back riding, and field hockey, three of the outdoor constitutional stimuli planned by W.A.A., have commenced and have left their mark on those who participated.

20-7, 'Nuff Said The spark of enthusiasm t h a t enabled the Dutch to t r i u m p h victoriously over Carroll failed to a p p e a r soon enough last S a t u r d a y as Kalamazoo College trounced Hope with a 20-7 victory. Even though both t e a m s played ineptly, the g a m e being characterized by fumbles and intercepted passes, Hope's mistakes proved f a t a l as they were capitalized upon by an alert, quick-thinking Hornet squad. This d e f e a t m a r k s Hope's third tragedy in the f o u r g a m e s played so f a r this season. Snapping into "high g e a r " during the second quarter, the Hornet's showed t h e i r skill as they buzzed p a s t Hope f o r two scores. Having the ball a t midfield, Kazoo quarterback Bob Urchalitz tossed a long aerial to end Vic Landeryou which set up the first touchdown. Completing their task the same pair connected again with a short bullet pass f o r the score. As t h e first half was drawing to a close, a sharp pass f r o m John Holmlund hit and bounced off the shoulder of Johnnie Adams. Alert Hornet halfback Jim Smith snatched t h e ball while it was still in the a i r and pranced thirty-five yards untouched f o r the second tally. A f t e r a scoreless third quarter, action again revived in t h e f o u r t h as guard Mickey F a b e r intercepted a Kazoo pass to put Hope in scoring position. Then the inevitable interception again took its toll as the Hornets grabbed the pigskin and rolled deep into Hope t e r r i t o r y . Apparently a t t e m p t i n g a field goal, Kalamazoos manipulated an unexpected maneuver by passing to Landeryou who was waiting in the end zone. Finally gaining the initiative Hope began its scoring drive in an a t t e m p t to pull the g a m e out of the fire. John Holmlund tossed a s h a r p aerial to f r e s h m a n end J e r r y Hendrickson which b r o u g h t Hope n e a r the Hornet goal. Then Mert Vanderlind drove over the remaining four yards f o r t h e tally. Doc Van Hoeven converted. Hope F i r s t Downs 18 Times Rushed 33 Net Yds. Rushing 130 Net Yds.
