Eleven Societies To Compete In All College Sing Classic

Eleven f ra tern i t ies and sororit ies will compete for honors next Fr iday evening at 8:00 p.m., when the annual All College Sing is held in the Hope Memorial Chapel. Co-chairmen of the 1955 Sing are Marcia Pasma, junior from Muskegon, and Robert Winter, sophomore from Grand Rapids.

The judges who will determine the best independent singing group on campus are Miss Alberta Brat t and Mr. Marvin Baas of the Hol-land Christian High School, and Mr. Frances Hodgeboom, also of Holland. Mr. Hodgeboom has re-cently moved f rom Grand Rapids and is presently active in Barber-shop singing in Holland.

Under the All College Sing rules, the competing groups may begin practice not more than two weeks prior to the Sing. Each organiza-tion will present their Sing selec-tion and f ra terni ty or sorority song. As in past years the pro-gram will a l ternate with men's and women's groups. And each group will be directed by a member of the respective organization.

This year the directors and selec-tions of the respective societies are: Sibylline: Rosalind Smith, "Poor P ier ro t ; " Emersonian; Harold Rit-sema, "Sing On, Sing On;" Sorosis: Audrey Nienhouse, "Liza ;" Cosmo-politan: David De Jong, "Riff Song," Delphi: Francis Frye, "Kash-mire Song;" Knickerbocker: Nick Pool, "Greensleeves;" Dorian: Betty

Orators

Rate Well

In Contests Representatives of Hope College

made a good showing earl ier this month at the annual oratory and extempore speaking contests of the Michigan Intercollegiate Peace As-sociation. In the event, held at Alma College February 12, 1955, highest place of the Hope delega-tion went to Bob Winter, who took second place in Men's Oratory. Darlyne De Tuncq, a senior f rom West Bend, Wisconsin, placed third in the Women's Expempore Speak-ing Contest, and Cathy Voelker, a f reshman f rom Frui tpor t , Michigan took third in the Women's Oratory contest. Don Kroes, a junior from Muskegon, Michigan, part icipated in the Men's Extempore contest.

This league, which includes such schools as Michigan State College, Central Michigan College, Wayne University, the University of De-troit, and Western Michigan Col-lege, in addition to the M.I.A.A. schools, is separa te from the "Old Line" State contests, in which local Raven and Adalaide winners will part icipate, March 4 at Kalamazoo College.

Miss Helen Harton, acting chair-man of the Speech Department , and Miss Elva Van Haitsma, drama and speech teacher at Hope, also made the trip, acting as coaches for the part icipants f rom Hope,

Chapel Programs

Compared At

Alma Workshop Alma, Mich. (LP) — A report on

the first student council workshop of church-related colleges of Mich-igan, held on the Alma College campus, disclosed tha t Chapel pro-grams at the various schools ranged f rom one to five a week, and the number of cuts f rom two a month at Alma to three a semes-ter at Kalamazoo.

At Adrian College, o n e - h o u r chapel programs are held three times a week, and students are al-lowed three cuts per semester. Students must attend chapel for two years of the four or read twenty selected books. Five honor points per semester, making a total of twenty for four years, are given for chapel attendance.

Albion's chapel meets two times a week and three cuts per semester during the four years are allowed. For each overcut, one-half hour is added to the graduation require-ment. One of the two chapels at Albion each week is .religious in nature. The chapel committee is composed of student council mem-bers.

Youth Director

Interviews Students Miss Marion Van Horn, director

of Youth Mork in the Reformed Church in America, has recently been a campus guest . At the Y meeting Miss Van Home showed slides and spoke on r C a r a v a n i n g ^ which, she exp la inedf i s a summer service project whereby y o u n g people, preferably between the ages of 18-25, minister to the needs of various churches and communities throughout the United States. Work includes daily activities with boys and girls in vacation church schools, c ra f t s , recreation, and census tak-ing as well as helping to revitalize and s t rengthen the youth program.

Caravaning dates this year are June 15 through Ju ly 25. During the first nine days all caravaners ga the r at Muskingum College, New Concord, Ohio, where an intensive t ra ining program is carried out. Then workers are divided into teams of three or four and given their ass ignments which include f rom four to six different localities. Teams travel by stat ion wagon, bus, or t ra in ; the only expense in-volved for the caravaner is the cost of t ransporta t ion to and f rom Mus-kingum College.

Through the years many Hope s tudents have part icipated in this venture and any of them will tell you in glowing te rms how they enjoyed this work of service and fellowship. Applications fo r cara-vaning can be obtained f r o m Barb Jeff rey .

Rypma Replaces

Vanderborgh in

P&M's Production A change in the cast for the

coming production Pygmalion to be presented March 11, 12, 14 and 15 was necessitated last week when one of the members contracted measles. Joyce Vanderborgh who was to por t ray Mrs. Pearce, the sharp tongued housekeeper, has been replaced by Judy Rypma. Re-placing Judy in her previous role of the parlor maid is Evelyn Bolks, a newcomer to the P&M stage.

This spr ing production will be unique in the recent history of P&M productions as an af ternoon matinee will be performed on March 12. The evening performance has been canceled because of the International Night banquet and program tha t evening at 6:00.

Another innovation in Palet te and Masque this year will be the road show which they will take to the General Synod in Buckhill Falls, Pennsylvania, in June. A religious pageant will be presented at the June Conference and a cast of approximately 20 will be re-quired. Tryouts for this will prob-ably be held in March following the presentation of Pygmalion.

At a recent formal initiation, three P&M members were initiated into National Collegiate Players . Those initiated were Miss Elva Van Haitsma, Donna Raymer and Fran-ces Frye. Par t ic ipa t ing in the initi-ation were Miss Helen Har ton and Miss Bet ty Roelofs, a graduate of Hope College now teaching speech and dramat ics a t Zeeland. The meeting was held at the home of Miss Har ton .

Couple To Appear in

Violin-Piano Concert

The Rabinofs, famous American violin-piano team, will give a vmi-cert here in Hope Memorial Chapel tomorrow at 8:15 p.m. as the fourth presention of the season of the Concert Series. Benno Rabinof is one of our grea tes t violinists whose career was launched with an exceptionally brillant debut at Carnegie Hall with the New York Philharmonic. His wife, Sylvia, gave up a successful solo career as a keyboard ar t i s t when she married and became her famous husband's accompanist.

The New York Times acclaimed them as " an exceptionally well-balanced pair. Both are skilled per formers with plenty of technical control and a fine sense of musician-ship and there is unusual rapport between them." Aptly described as the "Lunt and Fontanne of the concert s tage", Benno and Sylvia

celebrate this year the 12th anni-versary of their marr iage and over a decade of joint concertizing. In m o r e t h a n 1 ,000 d u o - r e c i t a l s throughout the United States, Eur-ope and the Near Eas t , their super-lative musicianship and personal charm has won them esteem from

EDITOR'S DESK The Anchor Fights Back

During the past semester the editorial staff of the Anchor has incited the ire of both the administrat ion and facul ty on more than one occasion. As a result the editors have been continually "called on the ca rpe t " and asked to repent and recant. This, we feel, is not fa i r to us or to the s tudents .

The Anchor is the expression of student opinion, or at least, t r ies to be. Contrary to the ideas of some of its critics, it does not pass judgment on campus issues, merely on the basis of personal prejudices. For if s tudents differ with our policies and feel s trongly enough about them to wri te let ters, we give them a fa i r chance to air their views in print . This we feel is as it should be.

But when professors devote class periods to tear ing down our ideas before the forced at tendance of their s tudents, and the administrat ion repr imands the s tudents involved, our ire is incited.

One of the chief criticisms agains t the Anchor is tha t the editorials a re not signed. If the people who raise this "hue and cry" would avail themselves of any good book on journalism they would see tha t this is good journalist ic practice.

But jus t the fac t tha t they are concerned with the person behind the editorial r a the r than the idea is a good indication tha t they re fuse to recognize the Anchor as anyth ing more than a "scandal sheet" wri t ten by a few radicals.

If these same people, instead of limiting their criticisms to the editors would criticize us in print , they would be reaching the s tudent body with their views and, in their own eyes at least, rect i fying any wrong they feel we have perpet ra ted . That they do not is proof enough tha t they regard their a rguments as too weak to stand up under the critical judgment of a rational evaluation.

Slavery For Moderns The t ra in ing offered by our high schools and colleges in recent

years has leaned more and more towards vocational preparat ion. Home-economics, print ing, machine shop, and business adminis t rat ion a re offered in all the modern high schools. Colleges are scheduling courses in hotel management , window decorating, and the like. These practical subjects are taking the place of reading, writ ing, and ar i thmetic .

There is ample evidence indicating the displacement of the " three R 's" f rom the curriculum. Teachers grading college entrance examina-tions are appalled a t the number of misspelled words, the blatant grammat ica l mistakes, and apparent inability to solve mathemat ical problems involving more than simple addition and subtraction, multi-plication or division; not to speak of f ract ions . But when one realizes t ha t these s tudents were those who most probably took the pre-college courses in high school, it is hard to imagine the caliber of t ra in ing of those who took vocational subjects.

The general absence of even a vague acquaintance with the g rea t l i te ra ture of the English language was forcibly indicated to me re-cently. There had been one of those ra re one-and-a-half-hour p rograms on television — an excellent production of Hamlet. I inquired of a f r iend if she had seen it. Upon receiving an aff i rmat ive answer, I ask if she had enjoyed the performance. Grudgingly, she admit ted she had enjoyed i t ; but she thought the play contained a r a the r large number of t r i te phrases! Perhaps I should rejoice tha t she was willing even to watch something other than "Super Circus".

This conversation only heightened my belief tha t the most impor-t a n t educational problem, both f o r the survival of democracy and fo r the retent ion of psychological f reedom, is a redefinition of the purpose of education. I t is my opinion tha t the purpose of education is to teach people to think in t e rms of symbols and abs t rac t ideas: to be able to recognize a problem, extract the relevant information, and on the basis of the information fo rm a valid and sa t i s fy ing conclusion. One's development of his thinking process should begin in school; and as good a background as any f o r developing this ability is a classical

What's Past Is Prologue

by Larry Siedentop

The United Sta tes is in very grea t danger of being fooled. With the admittedly serious Formosan dispute seething as it is, we in this country have, of almost one accord, turned our complete at tent ion to the F a r East and its problems. Such attention is not bad in itself. But when it casts into oblivion the other problems of the world, when it plays the role of a demonic god unto itself, then it necessarily becomes dangerous, senseless, stupid.

The United States has not reach-ed this point — as yet. But our historical tendency toward an exag-gerated concern over F a r Eas te rn crises has led us to ignore a r a the r g rave crisis in Europe. The fall of Mendes-France has plunged Euro-pean affairs into a deceptive chaos, and our hastily conceived and fee-bly executed plans fo r German re-a rmament within the f ramework of a European Community have vir-tually been shat tered . The French National Assembly has reasserted its independence and individualism. It may not again allow the question of Germany to push it into the corner.

Nor is it merely in France tha t German rearmament is threatened. There is convincing evidence tha t the Germany pictured by Chancel-lor Konrad Adenauer, her "g rea t Old Man," does not in real i ty exist. There is considerable indication tha t the German people are not the ardent ly democratic, conscientious-ly peaceful, and internationally minded crew as is propagandized. We must not mistake an economic miracle for a political miracle! Re-a rmament might be forced on an unwilling, unsafe people.

To i l lustrate and illuminate what this wri ter believes is a crying need for reappraisal by this nation of i ts European policy, the follow-ing t ranslated excerpt f rom the le t ter of a German university stu-dent is included. Wri t ing on Janu-ary 31 at Duesseldorf, he com-ments :

"Politically there is a good deal of agitat ion here on the subject of the ratification of the Par i s Agreements on the one hand, and the unification of Germany on the other . There are a grea t many people . . . who believe tha t the ratification would move the pros-

pect of a unification into the f a r distance. In addition it is pointed out tha t the real issue is not " f r ee" elections" but the f u t u r e position of the unified Germany as a factor in international relations. Because certainly the removal of the occu-pation troops would have to be followed by a redistr ibution and rebalancing of the European power equilibrium.

"Personally I believe tha t any policy which does not have as its immediate aim the unification of Germany is undesirable fo r us. In the first place it means t ha t the sovietizing of East Germany con-tinues. In the second place it is already apparent tha t of late there are not only "East-zone r e fugees" here, but also a considerable num-ber of "West-zone r e fugees" who have fled to the East . It should be noted, too, tha t the Christian Democratic Union, which will re-place the present Adenauer group sooner or later , is considerably left of center, and would, even today, like to cooperate with the Social Democrats. But the SD, regardless of its opposition to Communism, has close t ies with the E a s t Zone Socialist Union Par ty , which in-cludes both Social Democrats and Communists . . . There seems to be a s t rong trend here towards the Socialist State .

"I therefore believe tha t the present division of Germany repre-sents^ a serious danger f o r all of Germany's neighbors and fo r the peace of Europe as such. The ques-tion is only how this division can be eliminated at the present time. The only solution would seem to be the so-called "neutral izat ion." This would certainly not be with-out danger, but it would be bet ter than two Germany's , one of which

The Critical Angle by R. P. Brown

Your repor ter finds himself in the ra ther difficult position of at-tempt ing to editorialize upon a subject which may be a dead issue before this paper reaches its readers. That subject is the proposal now under consideration by the Student Council to become affilliated

with the United Sta tes National Student Association. However, no ma t t e r what the Council decides, the student body is certainly entitled to at least a basic unders tanding of NSA, its purpose, and its work.

May I begin by quoting f rom the preamble to the constitution of NSA. "We, the s tudents of the United States of America, desiring . . . to s t imulate and improve democratic s tudent governments . . . improve student cultural , social, and physical welfare . . . promote

international understanding a n d fellowship . . . fos te r the recogni-tion of the r ights and responsibili-ties of students to the school, the

community, humanity, and God . . . and to preserve the interests and integri ty of the government and constitution of the United Sta tes of America . . ." establish this con-federat ion. Certainly this consti-tu tes a laudable set of ideals, prin-ciples, and intentions. The question

which natural ly follows is, of course, whether the organization actually works toward and accom-plishes these goals or is merely intended to do so. I will t ry briefly to answer t h a t question.

N S A is a confederation of stu-dent bodies of over 300 member insti tutions are represented through

their own campus government or-ganizations. The fac t t ha t it is a confederation ra the r than a more s tr ingent type of association is per-haps one of i ts best selling points. Any member school may benefit ful ly f rom its services and influ-

ence but is not bound to anything in the organization which it deems disadvantageous o r undesireable and may wi thdraw completely a t anytime.

The needs served by affiliation

with NSA are, it seems to me, ra ther obvious. In the first place,

the capacity fo r our Student Coun-cil, and in tu rn our s tudent body, for effective action and impact upon campus, community, and na-tional problems would be t remend-ously magnified were we to cease to be one insular body, worried about nothing more vital than icy sidewalks and the all college sing. Of course, these things have thei r place, but college s tudents are pre-par ing themselves to assume lead-ership in the nation and in the

Chewing The Rag w i t h O p h e l i a G a g m u t z

Dear Mom and Dad: I jus t got home f rom Sing prac-

tice and it certainly is a confusing thing. I've sung all three pa r t s now and they finally told me I could sing alto if I sang very soft ly. But, today 1 was sent back to the soprano section because they needed someone my size for the f ront row. I still don't understand what my size has to do with what part I sing, but the director said not to worry, tha t with my voice, it really didn't ma t t e r where I sang. I thought it was sort of nice of her to say tha t . A f t e r all, she didn't have to a t all.

1 told Joe about it and about what the director had said about my voice and he got sort of a sad look on his face. I really do think he's a little jealous because his f r a te rn i ty won't let him sing any-

thing but baritone. I'd never have told him if I had known he'd be so touchy.

He took me to see the Calvin

game last week and honestly, I've never screamed so hard in my whole life. Everybody was jumping up and down and yelling so. I've never seen anything like it. I got so interested in them tha t I hardly saw the last half of the game, and Joe wouldn't hardly talk to me when I asked him what was hap-pening.

We tied with them f o r the main game, but we beat them in the little five-minute game tha t was played a f t e rwards , so .we still fe l t good.

Last week Joe and some of his f r iends were looking all over fo r a fire engine to take to Calvin. I can't imagine what Calvin wanted with a fire truck, but I do think it was nice of the fellows to put

themselves out so much fo r a school tha t we compete with in sports. I think f r iendly rivalry like that is something to be awful ly proud of.

My roommate is in the clinic with flu and it 's so lonesome in that room tha t I keep the radio on every night. The kids upsta i rs said it bothered them the first night , but they haven' t said anything about it since then, so I guess they've gotten used to it.. I'll be awful ly glad when my roommate comes home. I never realized how much we talk until the room was empty. I was real mad at the girl next door because I went in to visit with them and a f t e r a little while they asked me to leave be-cause they wanted to study. I'd never heard of such a thing. My roommate and I would certainly never do any th ing like that .

Well, I guess I'd bet ter get to bed. Write soon. J-

Your daughter , Ophelia

P.S. Mother, honestly I'd tell you if it were t rue about the chapel tower. Please stop worrying . . . it is all in one piece . . . really!

IN REVIEW By Jon Hinkamp

Professor Rider

To Give Concert The Hope College Symphonette,

under the direction of Morrette Rider, will present a concert in the Chapel on Sunday, March 4 at four p.m. Anthony Kooiker, who returned f rom his New York debut in November, will appear as soloist.

The program will include "Over-ture f rom '11 Signor Buesh ino ' " by Gioacchino Rossini, W.A. Mozart 's "Symphony No. 38 in D Major" , "Intermezzo Sinfonico f rom 'Caval-leria R u s t i c a n a ' " by Pietro Marc-gni, and Joseph Haydn 's "Concerto in D Major for piano and orches-t r a" in which Mr. Kooiker will be the pianist .

As I write this column, I am sit t ing in the quiet, oak panelled lounge of the Michigan Union in Ann Arbor. I have jus t returned f rom a performance of T. S. Eliot 's "The Cocktail P a r t y " and spent the late af ternoon browsing in record and book shops near the campus. As might be expected, I have made comparisons between the level of the cultural a t ta inment here and tha t at Hope.

The difference is enormous and immediately apparent . Equally ob-vious are the a rguments which are inevitably used in Hope's defense. F i rs t : the U of M is much larger and much richer, and, second: al-though the upper intellectual levels at a school such as U of M are

admittedly culturally superior, the major i ty of s tudents are at a cul-tural level comparable to Hope's.

There is, on the surface at least, a certain amount of validity in these arguments , but not nearly enough to form a basis fo r an acceptable excuse for inferiori ty; and inferiori ty is all to appropri-ately discriptive a noun fo r Hope's cultural s ta tus when it is compared to many other colleges. Unless we are prepared to tacitly accept a position of inferiori ty, we cannot take re fuge behind the first argu-ment; I, f o r one, do not relish the position of the "poor rube" country cousin which such re fuge must im-ply. Fur thermore , tas te and cul-tural ideas bear no intrinsic rela-

tionship to either wealth of sheer numbers, and, therefore , while it would be naive to expect Hope's football team to equal the U of M's, there is no reason why our more cultural activities cannot at least aspire to equality. The second argument is even less defensible. It is sheer sophistry to imply that a certain amount of mediocrity at other schools justifies, even in par t , mediocrity at Hope.

It seems, therefore, plain, tha t , if we do not wish to placidly ac-quiece to charges of cultural in-feriori ty, but ra ther to gain a repu-tation of cultural equality with the best American colloges, we must raise some of our s tandards and aspirat ions. I cannot recognize any basic reason why we cannot.

Specifically:

There is no reason why the Chapel Choir cannot expend its efforts upon bet ter music. Pales-tr ina costs no more per sheet than Schneker and Nobel Cain, and is quite within the limits of ability of the choir members.

There is no reason why the Palette and Masque cannot exhibit a more sound conception and more originally executed understanding of d r ama tu rgy in their productions; or why they cannot produce O'Neill or Eliot ra ther than Mary Chase.

There is no reason why the Blue Key Bookstore cannot extend its commendably improved stock to include more of the excellent books available in inexpensive paper-bound reprints , perhaps by way of replacing some of the more ridicu-lous i tems in its no doubt upl i f t ing but otherwise deporable stock of tracts.

There is no reason why local merchants , were the s tudent body to show sufficient interest in bet ter books, magazines, a n d records, would not be happy to raise the level of thei r wares.

These a re but a few of the things which could be done a t Hope, which must be done, if we are to a t ta in a cultural level equal to our high academic standing.

This is, in la rge measure, a stu-dent problem. Again and again movements intended to improve campus l ife have been crippled or killed in infancy by s tudent apathy. I t is as t rue of cul ture ras it is of government t ha t is cannot rise above the aspirat ions of its con-

st i tuents.

WESLEY GROUP

BANS SEGREGATION C H A P E L HILL, N. C . — ( A C P )

— The Wesley Foundation, student Methodist organization here, has declared racial segregation a denial of " t rue Christian brotherhood" and has extended an invitation to any student of any race to "join their fellowship" at the University of North Carolina, the Daily Tar Heel reports.

A resolution, voted favorably by a 48-3 secret ballot, declared in pa r t : "While realizing the practical difficulties of applying the decision of the Supreme Court concerning segregat ion of whites and Negroes in public schools, we believe the decision to be a t rue interpretat ion of the Christian f a i th and our American democracy.

Letter to the Editor Dear Edi tor :

Re: article on class attendance policy

1. The change in at tendance policy was a decision of the facul ty, not of an absence committee. The action was initiated in Edu-cational Policies Committee (in which there are 3 student mem-bers) and then carried to full faculty session.

2. The practice preceding the adop-tion of the revised s ta tement was as follows:

a. Regular at tendance in all classes was required.

b. Individual faculty members were responsible to decide what impact absence f rom class had upon achievement in the course, and thus up-on the final grade, which is the est imate of achieve-ment.

c. When the total pat tern of unexcused absences for a par t icular semester became excessive, s tudents were re-quired to take additional credit hours to complete the graduat ion r e q u i r e m e n t . The number of hours rang-ed f rom one-half to two, depending on the number of absences.

d. Students who were peren-nial class cut ters could be denied all credit fo r an in-dividual course or could be asked to leave college.

In eight of the explanation of the past procedures, the " judgment" word in the headline — "Dras t ic" might be re-examined. In the eyes of the facul ty , the revision was a l ightening of the weight of the fo rmer regulation, by the elimin-at ing of the general penalty, (sec-tion c aboVe).

When Benno and Sylvia Rabinof, the famous violin and piano team appear here tomorrow, the audience will have the opportunity to hear one of America 's top violin vir-tuosos playing a rare old Guarneri-us violin. This instrument nick-named "Tiger" because of the golden blending of the wood grain on its back, is one of three of its kind in existence.

"T iger" is one of three singing "s is te rs" created by the mas te r violin maker , Guarnerius, in 1742. The first belonged to the grea t violinist-composer, Paganini, and is preserved in a museum in Genoa, his birthplace. The second of the sister violins was bought by Jascha Heifetz and is his favori te concert violin. The third, which is Rabin-o f s , belonged to Kreisler. It is one of the ra res t and most valuable violins in the world.

The Guarnerius is noted fo r i ts deep rich t imbre and is easily dis-tinguished f rom the Stradivar ius , which has a higher tone. Rabinof has recently added a bold massive bow, made by the famous French bow-maker, Tourte. One of the finest examples of Tourte 's la ter period, the bow is insured fo r $3,000.

Chapel Regulations . . . (Continued f rom page 1)

Calvin College presents three chapels per week and allows three cuts per semester .

Each faculty member must speak in chapel at least once. Chapel programs, which are broadcasted, last about fifteen minutes.

Hillsdale College holds one chapel a week, with three cuts per semes-ter. The vice-president of the col-lege is chairman of the college chapel committee, which selects the chapel speakers. Students are re-sponsible for the worship services. Programs vary in content and us-ually last about forty-five minutes.

Chapel is held five days a week at Hope College, and the services last about twenty minutes. Five cuts per semester are allowed; a f t e r ten cuts the student is called before the dean and may be sus-pended.

Kalamazoo's chapel is held twice a week, and three cuts per semes-ter are allowed. The programs us-ually last about a half-hour.

The report also disclosed how each of the church-related schools handles discipline. At Adrian, each student must sign a morals card before gaining admit tance to the college. This card is a promise tha t he will not smoke or drink while

a t tending college. S m o k i n g is limited to the f r a t e r n i t y houses. Students may be suspended fo r a semester or expelled, or put on social probation, fo r drinking.

At Albion, the s tudent council has no power in s tudent discipline, the smoking is allowed only in specified areas of the campus. At Calvin, student discipline resides in a facul ty board. Minor problems go to this board, and serious prob-lems are taken up by the facul ty board.

At Hillsdale, there is a dual pro-bation system whereby a s tudent on social probation is prohibited his choice.

Discipline at Hope resides in a committee consisting of the college president, two deans, and president, vice-president, secretary and t reas-urer of the s tudent council. This committee has the power of sus-pension or expulsion. On his first offense, a s tudent goes to the presi-dent and deans; fo r the second, he is called before the s tudent com-mittee.

Kalamazoo has a judicial council made up of four s tudents and fac-ulty advisers, who decide on dis-cipline problems, including drink-ing, and have the power to put a student on social probation for the first offense, and to expel fo r the second offense.

SLAVERY FOR MODERNS . . . (Continued f rom page 2)

education. Proceeding with the hypothesis outlined above, let us ask a few rhetorical questions.

Democracy is premised on a belief that an informed electorate will make the correct decisions. But is information all t ha t is neces-sary? Let us look at our electorate. The f reshman who cannot spell, who cannot use words properly, who cannot write a coherent sentence, who can barely add and subtract , he is the electorate. And so is the high school s tudent who did not prepare to continue his education — the s tudent who at fifteen decided tha t he wished to work the rest of his life at a lathe, whose last brush with prose was his ninth grade manual in "shop", and whose only encounter with poetry was "Twinkle,

Twinkle Little S tar" . This is our electorate: men who a re informed, but who never learned to think with everyday symbols. How can we expect them to be able to think in the abstract realm of government?

Besides this obvious method of destroying our freedom, our edu-cational system employs a more insidious method. We assume tha t as soon as children show signs of physical matur i ty , they are emotionally mature enough to choose a vocation. From tha t t ime in an adolescent's life until the end of his "education", he is t augh t only his chosen vocation and subjects directly related to it. A business m a j o r is t augh t business English, a chemistry major is t aught scientific German; and who cares what Milton wrote and Goethe thought . Modern educational practices encapsule men with a modern slavery.

The slavery of today's man is not his job, as many people would have us believe. The new slavery is psychological. By t ra in ing a man to perform a specific task instead of to think, we have imprisoned him in someone else's thoughts . Perhaps , even if he had been t augh t to think, he would still have the same vocation, but he would be able to discover independently the relationship of his duty to the whole process. More important , he would have the abili ty to discover his relationship to life, to his God.

Of what value is our physical f reedom, if we are still slaves with-in? Our system of education fo r moderns has developed into a system of slavery, also f o r moderns.

Two other singing groups will appear during the Sing, al though not in competition. They are the Hope-Ives, directed by Mrs. Hopp, and the Durfee Waiters , directed by J im Neevil. While the judges are determining the Sing winners the audience will be led in com-munity singing by Nevin Webster . Mr. Roger Reitberg, of the Hope College Music Depar tment will ac-company on the organ. 1955 All College Sing will close with the Alma Mater Hymn, led by the stu-dent director of the winning f r a -ternity.

Other committee chairmen of the Sing, as announced by the All Col-lege Sing chairmen, are Ann Blood-good and Len Rowell, co-chairmen on the Chapel Accommodations Committee; Sewell Hayes, Usher Committee; Ardis Bishop, Program Design; and Lois Tornga, P rogram Committee.

world. If nothing else, they have a r ight to national representat ion and the r ight to make known their feelings upon such questions as directly concern them. Secondly, it is dubious tha t our campus has the distinction of being without prob-lems any more pressing than those which have I mentioned above or without need of information as to how to solve such problems as the social prograln. NSA affords a means whereby ideas and solutions to problems may be exchanged by its member organizat ions for mut-ual aid and advancement. NSA affil iates themselves and f rom out-side sources by the national staff. There is an annual National Stu-dent Congress to which member organizations send representat ives and at which action is taken upon problems concerning students . Fi-nally, and probably overlapping on some of the above, NSA carries on relations with the national stu-dent organizations of more than for ty countries of the f r ee world. It has part icipated in the organi-zation of the International Student Conferences and other international meetings in concert with other na-tional s tudent organizations which have found it, manifest ly, impossi-ble to cooperate with the Commu-nist-dominated International Union of Students. No one will deny tha t a pr imary need today is inter-national unders tanding and coop-eration. How bet ter implement such an end as s tudents who will event-ually have to deal with world prob-lems than become pa r t of an in-ternational organization working toward it. It seems to me tha t , as a Christian college holding to Christian beliefs, we are being grossly inconsistent if we make no a t t empt to exert a Christ ian in-fluence upon national policy and international relationships. Such an influence is impossible if we take no active par t in national and in-ternat ional affairs .

It is perhaps hackneyed, but "no man is an island."

is par t of the E a s t block and the other pa r t of the West. It is in-terest ing to note, by the way, tha t the Russians have the same diffi-culty in persuading the Eas t Zone to rearm as the Allies are experi-encing in West Germany.

"At the moment both parties, the suppor ters and the opponents of the Par is agreements , are engaged in a very noisy and active propa-ganda campaign. Of course, the ratification of the agreements is as-sured by the ma jo r i ty of the CDU in par l iament . However, the actual process of r ea rmament will require the passage of specific army bills and constitutional changes which will have to be passed by a two-thirds major i ty , which is not at all assured. Ratifications of the agree-ments therefore will not mean very much. The batt le will only begin in earnest a f t e r this .

"The most dangerous factor is that the Gewerkschaftsbund, the federation of all West German unions, which mainta ins close con-tacts with the Social Democratic Par ty , shows very radical t rends and opposes rearmament of any kind whatsoever ."

Schrier Speaks On Korea, 'Studyingest Army In World' Following there a re excerpts f r o m a le t ter recently received f r o m Dr. Schrier.

Ui jongbu, Korea 8, J a n u a r y , 1955

"So much has happened to me that i t 's ha rd to know where to

begin. Your in te res t would prob-ably be pr imar i ly in the educational side so I shall s t a r t t he re by say ing that th is whole experience is a real educational challenge. I guess you know tha t my teaching se t -up involves teaching courses the first four nights of a week only, f r o m 6:30 to 9:15 with a 15 minute break a t 8 p.m. One teaches each term a t two places, one wherever you a re billeted and then two nights a week you go the o ther place e i ther by jeep or plane. Wi th only tha t much of a teaching load, you can see tha t the work is not onerous. There a ren ' t many facil i-ties f o r personal interviewing so I do t r y to make up f o r t h a t by wri t ing detailed notes to my s tu -dents, a l though occasionally if

someone has missed classes f o r good reason it is possible to have them get off f r o m the i r work long enough to see me a t my "hootshie" (synonym f o r J anesway , in which I l ive).

"The re is a s t a t emen t cur ren t around here t h a t the " E i g t h A r m y is the ' s tudyinges t ' a r m y in the world." I can well believe it. Even the Major and Colonel with whom 1 was living in a house last t e rm were both t ak ing 2 or 3 courses and spent thei r evenings profi tably in s tudy. All of th is is chal lenging

to a t eacher to do his u tmos t and level best .

"Aside f r o m mee t ing so m a n y in teres t ing people, both in and out of classes, the re are of course so very m a n y in teres t ing th ings to do. I have enjoyed on occasion going into the vi l lage of Ui jongbu with my houseboy, t ak ing pic tures en-route, and having a cup of coffee in a r e s t au r an t , and ge t t i ng a ha i r -cut which here is a lways followed by a massage which is out of th is world. On New Year ' s Eve, Ada and I sa t on the floor in the J a p a -nese room a t Sue Hiro 's , r e s t a u r a n t in J a p a n , ea t ing sukiaki ( t h a t may not be spelled r i g h t ) . The f a c t t h a t she did not like t h a t beef in r aw egg — I did! — makes i t nonethe-l e s s a n in te res t ing experience. Speaking of Ada, the re ' s an ex-pression in J a p a n "You go broke buying b a r g a i n s ! " and I 'm a f r a i d she's going hog-wild in her shoping

sprees. She sees so many m a n y things Oriental t ha t a re beaut i fu l

and reasonably priced.

There is a universal longing f r o m Colonels on down to p r iva tes to get the i r 6 months tour over, and

yet in spi te of the grousing, the

morale of men and officers remains^ remarkab ly high. F o r the pover ty of the Korean people, I cont inue

to have a h u m a n i t a r i a n concern; f o r the government of Korea , Syngman Rhee "doesn ' t show me much," except ingra t i tude!

fo r emos t crit ics and a vas t and var iegated public.

Though still among the younger m a s t e r s of the bow, Benno Rabinof has been called a legend in his genera t ion. He was a rank ing a t h -lete who renounced the Olympic team f o r a vir tuoso 's career , and the last in the g rea t line of Leopold Auer ' s pupils who included Hei fe tz , E l m a n and Zimbalist . He was in-troduced to New York audiences by Auer himself , who conducted f o r R a b i n o f s Carnegie Hall debut in the Violin Concerto Tchaikovsky

had dedicated to Auer . Mrs. Rabinof, who first en tered

the musical world in her P a r i s debut as the 20-year-old Sylvia Smith , pro tegee of Paderewski and

Serkin, is not only one of the fo r e -most woman pianists , but the com-poser of more than 150 works , in-cluding ins t rumenta l soli, orches-t ra l suites and an opera. She ac-companies he r husband on the piano entirely f r o m memory — an uncommon achievement of the con-cer t world. The Rabinofs are the

only husband and wife t eam ever to have been awarded s imul tan-eously the degree of Doctor of Music, an honor accorded them by Lincoln Memorial Univers i ty .

Both have achieved in ternat ional f a m e and have made t h r ee world tours . Mr. Rabinof has appeared a s soloist with leading symphony

orches t ras in the United S ta tes , Canada, and Europe , and has made regu la r radio appearances over the national ne tworks : NBC, CBS, and ABC.

CARTOON DRAWS FIRE BOULDER, C O L O . — ( A C P ) —

"Inaccurate report ing by the Den-ver Post touched off a three-r ing circus of comments, denials and c lar i fy ing s ta tements over the mer-its of a cartoon printed in the Colorado Daily," the student news-paper of the University of Colorado says.

"The Post story stated ' the car-toon provoked resentment in both houses of the s ta te legislature. ' And Senator Donald Dunklee (D) of Denver was quoted as declaring 'we resent being pictured as f a t old 19th century plutocrats in

str iped pants. ' "However, in an exclusive inter-

view with The Daily, Dunklee said ' there were no objections to the

cartoon among the legislators, as was reported in the Post ; only comments. ' Dunkley added 'as car-toons go, 1 think it was all r ight . The student holding up the tin cup put across the idea of the Uni-versi ty 's financial n e e d s quite

well.' " Annet te Goodheart, i l lustrator of

the cartoon which drew f ront -page notice in the Denver Post, said tha t "In all the fu ro r over the editorial Trartoon, it appears tha t its real purpose of pointing out the Uni-versi ty 's financial needs was over-looked."

She fu r the r commented, "I think it was nasty of the Denver Post to wri te up tha t sensationalized s tory without even print ing the cartoon, so the people could judge for themselves if it was an insult to the s tate legislators."

HALF A HAIL TO MINNESOTA

M I N N E A P O L I S — (ACP) — The University of Minnesota Quiz Bowl kids, who have mowed down twelve universities in the weekly College Quiz Bowl program Satur-day nights over NBC, came up with a complete blank on one question last week.

Not one could repeat the second s tanza of the Universi ty 's alma mater , "Minnesota, Hail to Thee."

CAMPUS PARKING PROBLEM 'SOLVED'

(ACP) — We knew somebody, somehow, somewhere, would come up with a perfect solution to the campus park ing problem which plagues college s tudents and camp-us cops across the nation. Dennis Krzyzaniak, instructor in chemistry a t South Dakota State College a t

Brookings, offers these solutions: (1) Paint the t i res the same

color as the campus policeman's chalk. Several months will elapse before his current supply is ex-hausted.

(2) Coat t i res f reely with con-centrated HCL, which will react with chalk, producing carbon di-oxide and water .

(3) Purchase tireless cars. (4) Obey the committee 's current

park ing regulations in hopes tha t thei r research efforts will br ing us more modern modes of t ranspor ta -tion, such, as space belts, short r ange rocket pencils, etc.

U. S. DENIES RUSS VISAS

An interest ing international situ-ation has arisen during the last few months involving the United States government , the NSA and some Russian s tudents who are interested in touring the United States.

The problem has arisen as a re-sult of visits" paid the USSR in the last two years by American students. It seems tha t now the Russians would like to return the visit made by the Americans. The visa applications f rom the Soviet s tudents were the first received in years, but were denied by the U.S. government.

The visas were refused on the basis of the Immigrat ion and Na-tionality act of 1952, which s tates that any person who has at any time lent support , been a member of, or subscribed to, a total i tar ian government, be denied entry into this country. While the NSA con-gress last summer passed a reso-lution urg ing the removal of these clauses, a t the same time it re-jected the idea of s tudents from Russia being admitted to the coun-try for tours .

The basic reasons for the dis-approval of the plan to encourage the s tate depar tment to allow stu-dents to enter this country were: (1) A general belief existed that the congress should not oppose specific actions of the U.S. govern-ment and (2) tha t those who had applied were in reali ty not stu-dents, as most were about 35 years of age, and therefore , nothing could be gained f rom communica-tion with them.

This policy, al though strongly passed at the congress last sum-mer, has come under fire from many quar t e r s recently. Finally, however, everyone i s becoming more aware of the fac t tha t there is little to be lost and much to be gained in international understand-ing through such an exchange.

Therefore , it appears tha t the possibility of Russian s t u d e n t s touring the U.S. is much stronger. A definite fac tor which has drawn many to favor the exchange is that practically every American student who has toured the USSR backs the idea.

22-CAR COLLISION CAUSES $10,000 DAMAGE

MINNEAPOLIS — (ACP) — Mirror-smooth ice on Washington avenue bridge leading across the Mississippi river to the University of Minnesota caused a total dam-age of $10,000 as 22 cars ended up with crumpled fenders and jammed hoods one morning last week.

Glare ice and clouds of river steam contributed to the mishaps in 20-degrees-below-zero weather . Ten of the 22 vehicles had to be towed away. No one was seriously hur t , the Minnesota Daily reported.

PITTSBURGH TWITTERS OVER TWIRLERS

PITTSBURGH — ( A C P ) — Two downtown newspapers here have University of Pi t t sburgh faculty and s tudents up in arms over formation of a women's twirling corps at Pitt , Bernice M. Cohen writes in the Pitt News. Before most s tudents were aware of the mat ter , one paper said the students were divided, she says.

The Sun Telegraph said, "The fight fo r women's suff rage has shifted to the Universi ty of Pi t ts-burgh . . . The mere mention of such newfangled ideas has divided Pit t Scholars into two warr ing groups."

Many facul ty members were not informed of the impending "cris is" when they were interviewed by the Pi t t News. All agreed that the is-sue was being emphasized without cause. Miss Cohen said. Af te r en-

l ightenment on the controversy, the major i ty stated that it is hard to visualize twirlers being a part of any band, she said.

Sam Morton, Pit t News column-ist, writes tha t "We don't think we're alone in thinking tha t the proposed women's chowder and marching society isn't a good idea. Women jus t aren ' t made for tha t sort of thing. Bare knees, short skirts , giggles and dropped batons don't belong on the same field with the 120-piece varsi ty marching band."

BAN ON TEACHING EVOLUTION SOUGHT

BOULDER, COLO. — ( A C P ) — The question of the teaching of evolution is headed for the s tate legislature, the Colorado Daily re-ports.

Rev. Gladden William James, head of the Foundation fo r the Authenticity of the Bible and fo r Religious Liberty, has presented to a s ta te representat ive a resolu-tion seeking to ban the teaching of evolution in s tate-supported schools.

The basis of the J a m e s resolution comes f rom the F r s t Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, dealing with separat ion of church and s ta te powers.

When asked whether he consid-

ered the teaching of evolution a subject of religious nature. Rev. James said "I certainly do. The teaching of evolution is a question of religion; it is not one of science.

"If we don't get legislative sup-port, "Rev. James added, "we will submit an init iative to the people of the s tate , and t ry to push across an amendment to the Colorado constitution banning the teaching of evolution.

"However ," he concluded, "we don' t mind having books by Darwin and the other evolutionists in the l ibrary, because t h a t is following the idea of f reedom of speech and the press. Our complaint is lodged agains t actually teaching it in the classrooms, or using those books as textbooks."

All College Sing

by the Women's Activities League

to provide another all-college func-

been eliminated. This was to in-

reason it was held on the Saturday

preceding commencement exercises.

J . G. Mackie, a s ta te legislator from Boulder, took the opposite view of the issue, according to Jenk Jones, Colorado Daily re-porter. Mackie s tated "I fo r one will fight the James resolution. We would not even consider such a resolution in the House; in fac t , it would probably be buried in committee."

Mackie added, "This is not some-thing f o r the legislature to decide. The Universi ty should have its choice of what subjects it wishes to teach."

gained in importance while the

second purpose faded al together .

The Sing no longer has any pur-

It is solely to provide an educa-

Cosmos, Fraters Lead In Interfrat League Play

by R. R. Van Wart Cosmopolitan

" A " League The Cosmos, led by hig-h-scoring Bill Heydorn, are a t the top of

the s tandings in the Monday night league. Heydorn having scored 147 points, leads all scorers in both leagues. Boast ing a 7-1 record, the Cosmos are the leading defensive team in the league, allowing their opponents only 253 points, or an overall average of 31.6 points per game.

"B" League In Wednesday night play, the

Cosmos are deadlocked in second place with the Arkies, having a 5-3 record. Dave Kuyers leads them in scoring, and is fifth in point production in the league, with 80 points. They are the top de-fensive team along with the Em-mies, allowing thei r opponents 284

tallies.

Fraternal "A" League

Paced by the high-scoring tan-dem o f J e r r y Veldman and A1 Nel-son, the F ra t e r s a re co-leaders in the " A " League. Their 7-1 record equals t ha t of the Cosmos. They also are the leading offensive team, scoring 396, or 49.5 points per

game. "B" League

Having a 4-4 mark the F r a t e r s are in four th spot in the B League. Tom Keizer leads them in scoring with 65 points. They are noted f o r their steady, but scrappy, play.

Emersonian "A" League

Spli t t ing their games down the middle as to wins and losses, the Emmies, led in scoring by Bob Ritesema, stand third. Ritsema has poured in 103 points, good enough for third high in the league. They rank second in defensive play.

"B" League Playing .500 ball on Wednesdays

as well, they are led by Lanky Harold Ritsema, who has tallied 112 points. So f a r , thei r f a s t breaks and defense have been effective, and most of their games have been comparatively low scoring affairs .

Arcadian "A" League

Having run up a record of 7 losses agains t a single victory, the Arkies a re bringing up the rear in t h e Monday evening standings. Dick Ten Haken leads them in scoring with 80 points.

"B" League Showing better performance, the

Arcadians are tied fo r second slot with the Cosmos, winning 5 while dropping three. Bieri, Gordie Hon-dorp, and Carl Vanderlaan are second, third and fou r th in individ-ual scoring in the league.

Knickerbocker "A" League

Although they have a mediocre 2-6 record, the Knicks have one spark plug in Joe Mart in. Joe is second only to Bill Heydorn in league scoring with 124 points. He has put them third offensively in the league.

"B" League The Knicks have failed to win

a game so f a r in " B " League competition. They have lost all eight games. Their individual scor-ing leader is J im Galer, with 66 points. Bob Samse has 60.

Independent "B" League

The Indies have no team playing in the " A " League, but have dom-inated B League competition f r o m the s ta r t . With a 6-2 record, they a re the sole possessors of f irst place. Their well balanced scoring is led by Lowell Heunick who has tallied 76 points. Their scoring punch has proved to be the best in the league.

Dutchmen Avenge

Loss To Britons The Hope College Dutchmen,

playing spirited ball, defeated the high-flying Albion Britons, 72-66, a t the Civic Center Februa ry 12. The victory put Hope into a third place tie with Albion in the M.I. A.A., each team having a record of six wins, four losses.

Gett ing off to a quick lead, the Dutch played accurate ball f o r most of the first twenty minutes. Then their defense wore away, and the Brits, led by lanky fo rward George Vivlamore, cut the Hope lead to 33-32 a t half- t ime. Willie Rink poured 16 points th rough the nets to lead the Dutch first half offense. Although record-holding Bob Hend-rickson could manage only one basket by the ha l fway mark, his exceptional rebounding on both boards provided the Dutch with many scoring opportunit ies.

Hope quickly pulled away in the second half, as Harold Molenaar and Hendrickson began to hit. An a i r - t ight zone defense and sharp-shooting on the p a r t of the Dutch opened the gap to a 56-44 lead midway in the second ha l f . In the last s tages, the Bri ts began to pu t on the pressure and eventually tied the game at 62 all with less than four minutes remaining. The Dutch, however, matched Albion point f o r point with Hendrickson and Mole-naar adding Hope's insurance bask-ets to ice the game at 72-66.

As has been the case so of ten, all of the Hope s t a r t e r s wound up the game in double figures. Willie Rink kept up his torr id pace to lead all scorers with 23 points. Bob Hendrickson, Harold Molenaar and Whitey Riemersma each had 12, while Johnny Adams poured in 11. J im Hilmert , sub. center, rounded out the scoring with 2 points, coming on a second quar t e r tip-in.

In Alma Contest Hope's Dutchmen "fell a p a r t " in

the final minutes, dropping an im-portant league contest to Alma, 73-72.

Leading 63-51 midway in the second half , the Dutch saw Alma score 22 points to their 9 in the final minutes. The Scots excep-tional out-court shooting and the loss of Willie Rink through fouls bogged Hope's offense in t h e final minutes, allowing the Scots to score an upset victory.

Trail ing at the 10-minute mark in the first hal f , 23-17, Hope came back s t rong behind Hendrickson's 18 point first half ba r rage to take a 40-34 ha l f t ime lead. Following the first half , the Dutch remained in control of the game, only to see their lead whitt led down.

Molenaar and Hendrickson led Hope's scoring with 23 and 22 points respectively, while Lude and Ford each gathered 15 fo r Alma.

Rink and Molenaar Pace Hope Scoring

Hit t ing on an amazing 40% of their field goal a t t empts , the Hope College Dutchmen stunned the lea-gue leading Calvin squad with an 91-89 overt ime defeat . Using their f a s t break to a t remendous advan-tage Hope went into a 11-7 lead with five minutes gone in the game, and continued to set a blistering pace as they surged into a 45-29 lead.

At the outset of the second half the Hope squad looked as if they might tu rn the contest into a com-plete rout as they led 56-35 with 12 minutes lef t , but at this point Hope's offense fell apa r t and Calvin began to slowly close the gap. Playing a del iberate type of ball the Knights out shot Hope in the remaining t ime as they scored 44 points to Hope's 22.

A f ree throw by Riemersma and Molenaar put Hope ahead 78-76 with 4 second remaining, but Don Vroon dumped in a jump shot to send the game into an overtime. In the overt ime the two squads matched point fo r point as with 9 seconds lef t the score stood 89 all. Taking the ball on the f a s t break Adams drove in f rom the r ight side to put in a lay up and give Hope a hard but well earned 91-89 win.
