HOPE COLLEGE ANCHOR txix—11 Hope College — Holland, Michigan January 17, .195^ f The City Hall in Vienna. Summer school students particularly remember it for the excellent open air symphony concerts given in the court yard. Deadline Nears for Vienna Registration Registration for the 1958 Hope College Summer Session in Vienna is underway with the deadline of January 20 drawing near. Six Hope students, including Bill Brookstra, Pete Huizinga, Suzanne Huizinga, Dave Ousterling, and Paul Van Wyk; and two from the University of Michigan and Columbia Uni- versity have already signed up for specific courses. About a dozen more Hope students have express- ed definite interest in joining the 1958 group. In addition, students from Dartmouth, Colgate, Carleton, Skidmore, and Central College have requested information about the Hope College program. Dr. Paul G. Fried, director of the program, stressed that students from other institutions will be in- cluded only if their registration will not deprive Hope students from the opportunity to partici- pate. He also emphasized that the program is not primarily a tour, but an undergraduate academic venture in which students can earn from two to eight hours credit in subjects which correspond with the regular Hope College course re- quirements. The 1958 announce- ment, available in the Dean's Office, lists a choice of five German cour- ses and five liberal arts courses in History, Music, and Literature, which will be taught in English. This will be the third summer a group from Hope College will spend part of the summer study- ing in Vienna. Again the faculty of the Vienna Summer School will be taken from the three cooperat- ing institutions: The University of Vienna, the Institute of European Studies, and Hope College. The re- cent visits to Hope College by Professor Dr. Hugo Hantsch, dean of the faculty of Arts and Sciences of the Vienna University and Mr. Paul Koutny, director of the In- stitute of European Studies, are indicative of the increasing im- portance attributed to the Hope program by the Austrian institu- tions. All courses offered in the Vienna Summer School will be taught by European professors, with the Hope College faculty serving as "associ- ate instructors." Most of the cour- ses will include a number of field trips and guest lectures to give students the maximum benefit of the European location. Thus the music course, again offered by Dr. Carl Nemeth, a young Austrian conductor and music historian, will include visits to several concerts including those given in the court yard of the Vienna Rathaus pic- tured above, one or two operas, and homes of famous European composers such as Beethoven, Schubert, and Strauss. Dr. Nemeth, who has just published his second book on Austrian music, has ex- pressed his delight to learn that Dr. Morette Rider of he Hope Col- lege faculty will be working with him this summer. Two other members of last year's Vienna staff will also be in- cluded in the 1958 program. Dr. Richard Sickinger will cooperate with Dr. Fried in the newly es- tablished history course: "Europe Since 1939" and Mr. Fritz von Sammern-Frankenegg, who is cur- rently on a one year appointment at John Hopkins University, will return to Vienna in time to again assume the responsibility for tutor- ing students enrolled in the Ger- man language program. Several other faculty appointments are still pending. The tentative schedule for the 1958 Program is: Departure—June 14 from Que- bec on the TSS Neptunia. Arrival in Europe—June 23, Le Havre, France. Study Tour—June 23 to July 6, in- cluding Belgium, France, Nether- lands, Germany, Austria. Summer Session—July 1 to Aug- ust 15 in Vienna, with extended weeknd excursion to Italy and Yu- goslavia. Independent Travel—August 10 to 21 or 25, ending in Cherbourg France or Liverpool, England. New Concert Piano Dedicated at Concert Walter S. Hartley, instructor in piano and music theory at Hope, presented at 8:15 in the chapel January 14, a recital dedicating the new Baldwin Concert Grand Piano. The piano is a gift of the Wil- helmina Van de Laare estate and on it Dr. Hartley played Prelude in G Major by J. S. Bach, Sonata in G Minor by C.P.E. Bach, and Sonata in B. Flat, Op. 17, No. 6 by J. Chr. Bach. Also performed by Dr. Hartley at the new Concert Grand was Moment Musical in A Flat and Impromptu in A Flat by Franz Schubert and a composition of the pianist's own. Sonata in A. Dr. Hartley received his Bachelor of Music degree from the Eastman School of Music in 1950. In 1951 he completed his master's degree in music, majoring in composition earning his doctor's degree from Eastman he was awarded the George Eastman honorary Scholar- ship for three years and his com- positions have been included in the Annual Festival of American music for 4 consecutive years, and applied instrumental. While NEW P&M CONSTITUTION Palette and Masque members should read the new Constitu- tion which is on the Dramatics bulletin board in Van Raalte be- fore the ratification meeting scheduled for January 30, in the Little Theatre.

Smith, of Chicago. De- signed by Dan Sasaki, the cover will feature a purple owl holding a lightning bolt on an orange back- ground. The literary editors have been preparing captions for the organi- zation and student activity pictures taken during the past few weeks. The staff has had two deadlines: one before Christmas vacation and one this past Wednesday. The final deadline is scheduled for March 26th. February 3-6 marks the date of the 1957-1958 Religious Emphasis Week on campus with the Rev. Harvey B. Hoffman of the Second Reformed Church of Hackensack, New Jersey as guest minister. Rev. Hoffman will find himself in familiar surroundings, having been a graduate of Holland High, later Hope College, and then Western Theological Seminary in the class of '35. Before accepting his pas- torate at the Second Reformed Church, he held three other pas- torates — all in the East. As a frequent contributor to the Church Herald and the author of a history of the Plattekill Reformed Church, Mount Marion, New York, he has had varied experience in the liter- ary field. Along with his literary publications, he has had consider- able experience as a lecturer, speaking at various churches, prep- Record Library Receives Gift The collection of phonograph records in the Music Building has recently been enlarged by the addi- tion of several gifts. One gift was a large number of used records from Dr. Charles Warren Fox, of the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. He has be- come interested in the Hope col- lection through Mr. Anthony Kooi- ker, former member of the Hope faculty, who is now working on his doctorate at Eastman. Included in this gift collection were several unusual recordings by Bartok and Mahler. Other donors in recent months have been Mr. Clyde Geerlings, Mr. Anthony Kooiker, Mr. Nicholas Pool, and Station WHTC. Until the music building was built, the Music Department had very little room to house phono- graph records, but now they have sufficient space for a library which is available to the students and faculty. Records are played in the three listening booths next to the library. Miss Jantina Holleman is in charge of cataloging and distribut- ing records, and Dr. Walter Hart- ley is in charge of books and scores. Many books have been brought from the main library and are used by music students.

Rev. Hoffman has held various denominational positions, and he is presently the Chairman of the Personel Committee of the Board of Foreign Missions. The theme of Religious Emphasis Week will center around the topic THE LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN. Rev. Hoffman has chosen to bring messages on the Christian and his Thoughts, his Affection, his Wit- ness, and his Service. The dis- cussion hours which will be held each afternoon at 5:00 P.M. in the Kletz will be based on the morning chapel talk. Rev. Harvey B.

Hoffman will meet students in the Music Building (Mrs. Kar- sten's studio) where there will be a list posted upon which students may sign for appointments. A similar list will be paced at Durfee Hall Desk for students to sign for a conference with Mrs. Hoffman, who will meet them in Durfee Lounge. The theme for the "Y" meeting has been selected as "The Church and The Youth — Responsibility and Privilege." Following the meeting there will be an informal coffee and reception in the Music Building to which all students are cordially invited. The following afternoon, Wednesday, at 3:30 P.M. the faculty will have an opportuni- ty to meet Rev. and Mrs. Hoffman at an informal reception held in the Kletz . Devotions in the women's dormi- tories will be held as in previous years, Mrs. Hoffman visiting a dif- ferent dorm each night. However, a new plan will be tried in respect to the men. Monday through Wed- nesday evenings Rev. Hoffman will be in Kollen Hall where all men students are invited to meet with him for a time of devotions, dis- cussions, and fellowship. The climax of the completed week of activities will be the Com- munion Service in the Hope Mem- orial Chapel. This year's service will begin at 6:30 P.M. The change to this earlier hour is due to a Civic Music Concert to be held that same evening. A week of inspirational activi- ties and fellowship has been well- planned for the Hope students. The success of it will depend upon the interest and participation of each and every individual.

Hageman and Chandler
to Represent Hope
In State Contest The Speech Department has an-
nounced the winners of the local Peace Oratoral Contest held on Wednesday, December 18th, in Van Raalte.
Winner in the women's division was Marianne Hageman, who spoke on "The Wisdom of the Heart ." Marianne, who hails f rom Mill-stone, New Jersey, is major ing in psychology and speech.
Winner in the men's division was Ronald Chandler, who spoke on "The Quest for Peace." Ronald, who lives in Holland, is major ing in history and expects to enter the teaching profession.
Miss Hageman and Mr. Chand-
ler will represent Hope in the STATE Peace Oratorical Contest to be held here, February 6 and 7. Prizes for this contest include: F i rs t prize, $25, second prize $15, third prize, $10.
Other contestants in the contest were: Robert VanWart — "Yankee Go Home", John Kleinheksel — "Silver and Gold Have I None", and Carol Luth — "The Survival of the Fi t tes t ."
Chairman fo r the contest was Dr. William Schrier, chairman of the Speech Department. Judges were: Rev. Lambert Ponstein, assis tant professor of religion and Bible, Dr. C. Voogd, associate professor of religion and Bible, Dr. Tunis Baker, Publicity Director, and Dr. Clarence DeGraaf, professor of English.
Preparing for Graduate Study The Association of American Colleges has found tha t "prepara-
tion for advanced study in such fields as medicine and dentis try is so highly standardized that the student rarely, if ever, is in doubt about the requirements fo r admission to professional study." In most cases he has decided on his goal before enter ing college and when he begins his studies there merely elects the "pre-med" or "pre-dent" curri-culum. The specifications of these curriculum usually vary little f rom one school another and regardless of which graduate school he ap-plies to, his pre-fabricated curriculum will very likely have included all the essentials.
On the other hand students in the ar ts and sciences f requent ly do not develop a definite interest until they are well into their under-graduate careers. Consequently they arrive a t the point of admission to graduate school with awkward gaps in their preparations.
Ideally ,then, each student should reach a decision concerning his life's work early in his college years. Also he should have some fa i r ly definite ideas about his choice of a graduate school. Then he, with the aid of his advisor, can char t his undergraduate program to include all the prescribed courses in his major and allied fields.
During this season of the year when so many students will be visiting their counselors it would be wise fo r them to discuss their plans fo r graduate study. Also, the library has two publications of the American Association of Colleges tha t all s tudents interested in grad-uate study should consult. They are A Guide To Graduate Study and the Directory of Fellowships in the Arts and Sciences. They may be found in the section devoted to graduate study and scholarships which is located in the Newspaper Room.

tune, but proud to act as a repre-sentative of the Class of 1959. Now, however, something has a-risen which makes it impossible fo r me to be a t Hope College next se-mester.
American University in Wash-ington, D.C. has a s tudy plan whereby students f rom many of the nation's colleges and universities are able to receive practical t ra in-ing and learning in the fields of government service and public ad-ministration. It is my good fur tune to be able to take par t in this Wash-ington Semester Plan next semes-ter of this school year. While it wuld be possible fo r me to put off my semester 's study in Washington until next year, the members of the facul ty concerned have advised me to at tend American U. next se-mester so tha t I will be able to spend my entire senior year at Hope. As much as I would like to remain a t Hope next semester, I feel tha t this opportunity is such that I cannot "afford" scholastic-ally speaking, to not take advan-tage of it.
This let ter , then, is an explana-tion. I t is my hope t ha t all the members of my class will under-stand my position. My decision to study fo r a semester in Washing-ton does not in any way display a lack of interest in my class or my office, but ra ther indicates tha t I want to merely "get the most" out of my fou r years of college study.
It is my every wish t ha t when 1 re turn to Hope fo r my senior year I will still have you all as class-mates. We are fo r tuna te in having as competent an individual as Gene Klaaren fo r our vice president. Gene will keep us "on top." I thank you not f o r the honor, but for privi-lege of having been your president even fo r one semester. Continued luck and success during the re-mainder of the year!
Sincerely, Dick Brown

Dntch Unbeaten in NIAA Ploy; Avenge Upset Loss to Central State of Ohio DUTCH MAINTAIN MIAA
LEAD WITH CLOSE VICTORY OVER ADRIAN
Af te r Hope's defeat of Kalama-zoo coupled with Adrian's first MIAA loss to Alma put the Dutch in sole possession of first place, the Dutchmen increased their lead to two full games when they squeaked by the scrappy Adrian Bulldogs at Adrian last Saturday,
76-67. Again it was a case of having
to come back s t rong in the second half to turn the trick. Hope was behind by six, 39-33, at the half, and when the Bulldogs increased that margin to 44-35 a few mo-ments later, it seemed for a mo-ment tha t the Dutchmen might succumb. But such thoughts were quickly dispelled. Hope tallied fourteen s t ra ight points to burst into a lead which they never re-linquished. Upon occasion, though, Adrian pulled to within one point, especially in the final minute.
Tha t final minute saw the Bull-dogs, led by Vince Giles, creep up to within one .point. Giles stole two Hope passes and scored bask-ets. Af t e r Ray Ritsema notched a pair of f ree throws, he committed his fifth foul of the game on Giles who equalled his feat . I t took two more free throws by Darryl Beer-nink in the final seconds to insure
the victory. Paul Benes and Ritsema colla-
borated for most of Hope's points, as well as controlling the boards. Benes tallied 26 and Ritsema 23. Giles, a 6'2" f reshman, made good on seven baskets and ten f ree throws for his team-leading total of 24. Adrian's leading scorer, 6'4' ,
senior Leon Harper , was held to a single basket in the second half and wound up with fourteen points.

HOPE SQUEEZES BY
KAZOO WITH LATE SURGE Hope racked up its four th con-
ference win against no losses at the Civic Center last Tuesday night by defeat ing the Kalamazoo Horn-ets, who put up a g rea t effort, by the score of 67-62. In order to do so, the Dutchmen had to s tage a fourth-quarter , come-from-behind rally.
Hope led in the early minutes, but suddently got very cold and missed some easy shots, and Kazoo darted ahead. The lead changed hands a t least ten times during the first half , as the teams traded baskets. The Hornets were hit t ing well f rom the floor and kept Hope constantly on edge. Hope had a one-point advantage a t the midway mark, 32-31.
Kalamazoo took over the lead right away and clung gamely to it up until the last five minutes of the game. But Ray Ritsema sparked the regenerated Hope team to victory, controlling the boards and scoring the bucket which put the Dutchmen ahead to s tay.
Once Kalamazoo realized that time was running out, they had to t ry and get possession of the ball. This gave Hope the opportunity to score valuable points f rom the free
throw line. The Dutch at one time led 67-58, but Kazoo scored two buckets in the final minute of play to narrow the gap a little.
Ritsema garnered sixteen points, Benes thirteen, and B u u r s m a eleven to lead the Dutch. The Hornet lineup proved to be very impressive and promises to be a threa t when they next meet the Dutchmen. Well-balanced scoring showed all five s ta r te rs in double figures. Center Walt Maser led the pack with eighteen. Box Score:
Playing against an offense which had been instructed to f reeze the ball to keep them f rom scoring, the Hope College Dutchmen de-feated the Maroons f rom the Uni-versity of Chicago on December 21 by the unbelieveable score of 24-14. The game was played on the losers' court.
Undoubtedly, the game score was one of the lowest in modern col-lege basketball history. Not since the days of the peach basket and the dead ball have scores of this kind been prominent in basketball headlines. But apparently, there was good reason for the lack of point-making, other than poor per-centage.
The University of Chicago team was impressed by Hope's brand of play in earlier games and decided to control the ball to keep down the Hope scoring. However, Hope upset the apple cart to some extent by jumping out to a quick 4-1 lead in the opening minutes.
For some fourteen minutes dur-ing the course of the game, the Maroons did not a t t empt even one shot. This shows the extent of their freeze tactics. Nevertheless, the Dutchmen maintained a steady lead and were on top a t the inter-mission, 17-12.
During all but the last two or three minutes of the game, there was no scoring except fo r one lone basket by the Dutch. Chicago notched ita> only points on a re-bound with a couple of minutes remaining. A f t e r that , Hope added five more points to add to their already safe margin.
Hope's Benes and Chicago's Woods were co-holders of the high scoring honors. Each had four baskets for eight points. Ritsema added six more fo r the Dutch, Teusink seven, and Vanderhill three. Davey accounted fo r the losers' other six tallies.
Since the game there has been some question as to whether the University of Chicago team broke a rule while inst i tut ing their freeze. On offense, the rule states, a team must move into position to score a possible basket, or else be charged with a technical foul. The fac t that there was much clowning and con-versation back and fo r th among the players on the court seems to in-dicate that there was no such at-tempt made. However, since Hope maintained a constant lead in the game, they were not responsible fo r taking any action, as the team which is t ra i l ing must issue the complaint, according to the NCAA.

HOPE SPLITS PAIR WITH
CENTRAL STATE OF OHIO Hope's basketball quintet was
deprived of an unbeaten season on December 19 at Wilberforce, Ohio, when they suffered a 77-74 setback at the hands of Central State of Ohio. However, they later avenged this loss a t the Holland Civic Cen-ter on Janua ry 4, t r imming the marauders 68-56.
Coach Russ De Vette commented a f t e r the initial defeat of the Dutchmen tha t his quintet staged the finest defensive game to date, and tha t since Hope was beaten the Marauders would have to be the best team they had played.
In any case, Hope was destined to" be up fo r the re turn match on its home court. This proved lo be true, as the Dutchmen came through in fine style. Their re-bounding showed a considerable improvement, as well as their ability to score when it counted.
Ray Ritsema led the Dutch not only in scoring but also in rebound-ing in the first game, even though his 28 points came in a losing cause. Paul Benes also rebounded strongly and added 15 points. It was Benes who topped the Dutch scoring in the second game with 21 points while Ritsema was run-ner-up with 16.
Eugene Beard and Jack Conyers were the leading scorers and re-bounders f o r Central State in both tilts. Beard tallied 27 points in the Marauder victory, but was held to 10 at the Civic. Conyers was high man for the Ohio quintet in the second game.
