MILESTONE This morning a t the Honors

Assembly the '44 MILESTONE was presented to the college by Len Sibley, the editor-in-chief, Copies of the MILESTONE may be had at the college office.

Happy Furlough Days Arc Here Again I read the te legram again, tucked

it into my pocket, and whistled a

chorus or two of Tanger ine . In three

more days he'd be here, and we'd

run through the spr ingt ime to-gether and s ing Happy Fur lough Days Are Here Again. Or would we ?

I t ' s been a long t ime since he went away — almost a year . It was hard to remember him — all the things he said and did — all we'd had together . We'd wri t ten those months , but l e t te rs can be awful ly shallow. I t hough t back to those last few days before he lef t . We had filled every minute doing everyth ing we could. We haunted the coke shop Just to be where everybody was. We tore around the country on his last few gallons of gasoline. W e had dinner

together , and went to church to-ge ther , and rode bicycles and took long walks under the s t a r s — even splurged an evening on a movie we had been wai t ing fo r .

The day before he lef t we lay on the beach in the hot Augus t sun. It was so peaceful and we fe l t so close. He had his hand on mine and I was almost asleep when a format ion of planes zoomed overhead, flying too low. His hand t ightened and then he Jumped up and said, "C'mon, Widget , I 'm gonna throw you in the lake." We raced down the sand and splashed into the cold wa te r . I t fe l t good — It s topped us f r o m th ink ing th ings we shouldn' t — like the war being as close as those planes and how li t t le t ime we had lef t . Tha t n ight we went to the count ry club pa r ty . I remember the smell of his a f t e r -

shave lotion mixed with tha t of my gardenias . I remember the music and the s ta rdus t and his a r m s around me . . .

And now he 's coming home. But all our memories seem so long ago and f a r away — like something tha t used to be . . . I was a f ra id .

1 finished the socks I was knit-t ing, lost the tennis tournament , passed two tes ts , found a four-leaf clover, and then it was Fr iday . My buzzer r ang , my hear t pounded and I went uncertainly down the s tairs . I wondered if he'd know r igh t away tha t something was wrong. He d i d n ' t He Just ga thered me into his a r m s and kissed me with all the love I knew he'd been sav-ing those long months. Then he said, MHi, Widget ," and gave my nose a li t t le push. The old nick-name made an unpleasant lump

well up inside.

We went to the coke shop first, played the juke box, and saw the old gang — what was lef t of it. How could I tell him — what would I s a y ? I had thought when he kissed me tha t maybe . . . but there was the ache inside; I was confused and unhappy.

We had nine days, he said. Nine days to make enough memories to last a long time. He wanted to put a l i fet ime into those nine days.

W e hired a tandem and went to the lake — it was awful ly cold, bu t we went in swimming. We lay on the sand and tried to ge t tan . . . We bought some new records and played them a t his house . . . We went on a picnic . . . to a cou-ple of par t ies . . . saw a movie . . rode horseback . . . drank endless

P R I N T E D A T OLD N E W S P R I N T E R Y

It's All in a Diploma Here I sit in front of an open window, the ANCHOR office

window. The place is deserted. .Some articles are in, others are late, due to sorority house parties. It's a beautiful day, spring, the sun is out, freshly mowed green grass, the pine grove is at its best and if I care to strain my neck I can see almost all of something that has been part and parcel of me for four years. What is it?

I can see lots of things. Students, good, bad, medium; beautiful, handsome, cute, homely and what have you. Some with a good line, others not so good. Extraordinprily talented ones and a good many average people. Oh yes, faculty, too. Learned, brilliant, interesting, and boring, too, painstaking, helpful though at times heartless, prompt and also dragging on af ter the bell has rung, participating in student activities sometimes, and sometimes nob, trained, each in his or her own field.

People and their societies pass by. Cosmos, Fraters, Em-mies, Knicks, Tri-Alpha, Sibs, Sorosis, Delphi, Dorian, Thes-aurian. Hushing, including "blood, sweat and tears," initia-tions, politics, good and bad, loyalties, pride, hours of fellow-ship and friendship, joint meetings, inter-frat competitions, hot tempers, the hearty handshake and slap on the back, eating at the grill, exchange dinners, and more, lots more.

Here comes freshman, the first time he's been away from home, just a kid not knowing what's what although he may think he does, and there goes a man af ter a diploma, reach-ing, grasping and, believe it or not, he made it! Freshman, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. Men may come and men may go but they go on forever I

But there's lots more in my window. Convocation, com-mencement, Homecomings, May Days, prayer weeks, glory days, skip day, Y retreats, skating parties, term papers, concerts, orations, exams, Dutch treats, society parties, Ori-entation weeks, the pull (including a cold Black river), ball games, championships, bench warmers, dismal defeats, stars, the Armory and Carnegie Gym, painting the observatory, frosh-soph bag fight, track and tennis, girls in shorts and formals, boys in tuxes and trunks, hay rides and sleigh rides, buzzers in Voorhees, and Van Vleck, too, mission drives, ANCHORS. MILESTONES, talking in the library, watching Milly Schuppert keep the college going. Dr. Dimnent leading chapel, Dr. Wichers joking at a faculty reception, open houses, "coketail" parties, the Model, couples strolling through the campus by sunlight, and more often by moon-light, 11:30 at Voorhees before Pearl Harbor, WAL carnival, Sunday School classes and church, the Messiah, the Rose window towards sunset, reading the Tribune, sneaking in the back door of Voorhees, the chapel organ, a messy organic lab, late-comers to chapel, frogs a la Teunis, unknowns from Kleinheksel and P-chem reports for "Doc," campus improve-ments, Y nites, swan songs, f ra t pins and nuggets, Ottawa and Tunnel park. As, Bs, Cs, Ds, Es, Fs, and incompletes.

And so they come and go, people and events, but the people are what really count. Friends, intimate and distant, talks, chats, conversations, discussions, bull sessions, argu-ments, but always friends, and plenty of them.

Now a spirit passes, one of endeavor, struggle, honesty, siwrtsmanship, trust, faith, love, energy, kindness, sternness, Christianity, cooperation. What is i t? Name it and you may have it, but to me it will always be HOPE, the bestest college what am. . . R. E. K.

Hello, Kep: Who is C. M. K.? Whoever " i t " is — he sure makes me homesick. I just received* my A N C H O R of April 5, so . l e t me explain. I read the ar t icle on "The Inevitable Irish." Somehow, reading an art icle like t ha t sends me back a short couple of years ago when we sa t in the F r a t e r House lounge a rgu ing a similar point. Something like the U. S. Neut ra l i ty . Kep, it would be worth a month ' s pay to have anoth-er bull session like t ha t — over h i re ' s neut ra l i ty . But since we can't discuss it, find C. M. K. and put him s t ra igh t on a f ew small points, will you?

Tell him why we are fighting this war, will you? Tell him why we are a Democratic count ry ; why we remained neutral until a t t a ck ; why we watched England sink to such a " low" dur ing the "Ba t t l e of Br i ta in" ; why we never aided China dur ing her first five years — tell him how Democracy works — why we, as Americans, can do as we please. Show him why, even though the Irish don't ag ree with us and may be wrong, we must re-spect thei r stand simply because they — and we — are a form of Democracy. Show him why We can't abandon all of our Democratic principals and use the weapons of our enemy.

Of course, it wouldn't be difficult for us to "push" Eire "off her fence," but, Kep, point out to "who's i t" that once we were the last r a m p a r t s of peace in a crazy world, (or so we though t ) . We may have been wrong then but it took a I'earl Harbor and a Bataan and thousands dead to show us the error of our ways. We weren ' t pre-pared for Dec. 7 but it came! And

we fought — and are fiRhting — not for our mistake but to think and do as we please in a f ree world! We made mis takes and peo-ple all over the world a re paying with us.

All the civilized world made a mistake allowing a Hit ler and a 'Musso" and a Tojo. We, the Yanks, made a mistake in allowing the "Bat t l e of Bri ta in" and a "Stab in the back." Perhaps delaying our part in the Battle of the Atlantic

easily swallow her up but t ha t , too, would be wrong. And, Kep, two wrongs don't make a right.

I haven ' t any idea what we should do — but this I do know. E i re isn ' t in the best position and condition r igh t now and she doesn' t agree with us. However, t ha t doesn ' t give us license to let her have a goo>. sw i f t kick to get her out of oui

way.

S t ra igh ten this ma t t e r up, will you, Kep? What I have said hasn ' t been "well put ," but I th ink you get the idea. You put it r i gh t and feed it to C. M. K., will you? Hope you can read this. It was wri t ten in a hurry .

An apple has one of the most excit ing scents this tired old nose has ever discovered.

To me, the g rea tes t book eve wri t ten is not the classic of yes terday or the best seller of tomor-row. It 's the book that expresse; my own thoughts and ideals ii such a way tha t I am almost foolet" into believing tha t the au thor ' r phrases a re my own.

War makes every th ing more dra-matic. It reminds us of the uncer-tainty of life. It crowds the f u t u r e into the present and makes us realize tha t it is wise to live for today.

There ' s one th ing I like about me. My tas tes in fu rn i sh ings are like those of a man. I would ra ther have a home tha t " l ives" well than one that simply looks well.

Dear Peoples: We've been br inging you the

latest da tes 'n ' doin's all these months, and now we're faced with a last issue. Hold your ha t s and climb aboard and letz see what we can dig, dig, dig, well all r igh t !

Everybody 's favori te spot these days is the beach. Oak leave clus-ters for the best tan to Droopy, Pinx, Ellison, and Roozen . . . I t ' s

bad enough tq get caught in the rain, and have to come home when you wanted to get tan, but when you have to ride home on a bike — well. J u s t ask the Bilkerts and Holly about the drippy t ime they had.

What ' s this we hear about Dr. Wichers whist l ing a t the dorm g i r l s?

Ev Shiffner had some company last week, and everybody seemed to enjoy fit. How 'bout tha t , g a l s ?

1 his week we're f e a t u r i n g the local exams . . . cheap, too . . .

s tep r ight up . . . tell you what I'll do fo r you . . . hmmm.

Miss Ross' drama class wound up another season with the read ing of Winged Victory. They really gave that one four s tars . Of course,

it fea tured a little Brooklyn stuff which pleased Mary Blair and a few other eas terners . . .Oiving!

Willy had company, too. Ar t was here for a few days and it was lice to see them hand-in-handing it again a f t e r so long. Art was surprised t h a t so many people knew so much about him. Didn't you know a little gal like Willum can make big talk — when it 's about something i m p o r t a n t ?

We saw Carol Bos dr iving around beside something tall, dark and pri-vate a couple of week-ends back. Hi, Doc. how goes it with the medi-cal a r m y ?

Carol Erickson. Lucy Voss. and Dotty Mills are considering pre-sent ing thei r services in South Ha-ven this summer . Could be the talk of nice milkmen (a la O 'Day) has lured them on. Good luck, gals — in your work, we mean.

Each yea r brings a few more names of each class list. This year 's calamity is the loss of the efer -vescent Vander Linden Twins who will take up residence in Hinze. California, and continue college

near there. We'll all miss you, twinses.

Also in the hail and farewil l list a re Mim Seibert, Bobbie Roozen, Marge Guispers, Joan Droppers , Trudy Maasen and Ruth V a n d e Bunte.

The gals say t h e y like th is weather . They never have to wear socks (or wash them) , and they never have to put their ha i r up cuz they can depend on the up-sweep or pigtai ls . Nice, huh? Well I should say.

The biggest f ea tu re a f t e r grad-uation is tha t long-talked-of wed-ding. Persis and Juddy a re gonna share the name of Van Wyk a f t e r June eighth. I t ' s to be in the dorm, and everybody will be there , and well — jus t wait and see.

In the line of visitors, we count two.0 Janey Waldbill ig is p lanning to show up fo r g radua t ion and a few days thereabout . And Dotty

deValois is going to tear herself away from Iowa to come back and see her old pals and the a lma mater .

What a year we've all had, am 1 r i g h t ? Remember how we won-dered what it would be all about with the a rmy on campus? Guess we found out! And one by one the Hope boys came back on fur lough, pr ivates to l ieutenants, seamen to ensigns. There were the usual bevy of engagements , maybe a few ext ra , and even a wedding or two or three or four . Mail made everybody's day exciting. T h e r e were all-girl part ies and occasional

da tes and lotz of unders tanding and fr iendliness. There were old t radi t ions to car ry on^md new ones to make and s tudying, of course. But 1 guess we all can look back and think it wasn ' t as hard as we'd expected. But maybe t ha t ' s just because we're very remarkable people, we of Hope!

And now that w e ' v e finished throwing orchids around by the dozens, I think we've come to the last s tamp in the ration book and it 's t ime to a je rn till the next one comes out. Tha t ' s next fall . See you then. Have a happy summer , kidses.

Love and kisses,

Whoozit.

The weather being favorable and the spir i ts being high, all the Sibs packed up thei r troubles, and left them home, signed thei r names on Mrs. Van's door and set out foi Shirl Lemmen's cot tage.

A f t e r a little sun, baseball anc swimming, all was abandoned to par t ic ipate in the most populai spoi l of all — tha t of roasting hoi dogs and indulging in o t h e i part icles of food equally as inter-est ing. Af t e r a song fest and pow-wow around the fire, the group ad-journed to the cot tage for the last business meet ing of the college year .

Elections were the most impor-tant business of the evening anc with the election for president Ruth Van Bronkhorst turned ovei the gavel to Myra Kleis. Her co-par tne r for the term beginning next September will be Evelyn Reus while the secre tary will be Vera I 'ennings and the t r easure r Harr ie t Stegeman. The unpopulai election of the evening was that of Anne Vander Veer as cha i rmar of the Freshman clean-up com-mittee.

We're heading fo r our last round-up and we ' re doing it in ful l swing, too!

The Glee Club gave one of thei r best per formances at the Holland High School on Fr iday morning. Coach Hinga gave a shor t talk — concerning the possibility of the s tudents en ter ing Hope and then introduced the Glee Club. The gir ls s a n g five numbers, "Good Folk," "Whi te Swans," "Begin the Be-guine," "There Are Such Things ," "Thou God of All Nat ions ," and closed with the "Alma Mater

Hymn." It was an excellent idea, we think, to promote the college here in Holland as well as our out-side contacts .

Monday night the Glee Club cel-ebrated the close of a wonderful yea r at Dorothy Wichers ' cot tage. Sun, wind, water , sand, and food were enjoyed by all.

The best news yet — the Girls' Glee Club are being given the privilege of singing thei r favori te number, "Le t All My Life Be Mu-sic," for Baccalaureate. The Girls' Choir will also sing. Their numbers

are "The Hundred and Fi f t ie th Psalm," and "Thou God of All Nat ions ."

Tuesday evening. May 23, was the occasion of one of the loveliest recitals we've ever had here. Ruth Ann's s inging was simply beautiful and Anna Ruth did a lovely piece of work on the accompaniments .

Well, it 's been a g rea t year — hasn ' t it, k ids? Every th ing has been so swell. Of course, we've had a few vacant spaces. 1 wonder if Mr. Cavanaugh realizes the place he holds and always will hold in the hear t s of Hope's s tuden t s? We know he's lonesome for us, for he wr i tes : "I 'd gladly exchange my sui te on this ship for my studio in the music building." We're glad you miss us " P r o f , " and don't ever get the idea we don't miss you. We're all looking forward to the days when you'll be back with us. God be with vou.

by Owen Kocppt Well, Hope's first non-sports yea r is all but over. It wasn ' t half a s

bad as it might have been. We managed to get in some football , base-ball, and basketball now and then . We even dug up a few respectable tennis players. Speaking of baseball , we certainly enjoyed the resul ts of the May Day g a m e in which the Frosh took on the mighty Sophs, Juniors , and Seniors all a t once. Why, the Frosh didn' t have a chance They were beaten before they even s ta r t ed! The upper classmen must have forgot ten about ace (and only) pitcher. Bill Haak. Anyway, they came out on the short end of a 14-11 score. The men's t rack meet was a big success. Staver jus t had to run the mile.

Nothing very ex t raord inary has happened in ma jo r league baseball. As we prophesied, the pitching is comparat ively s t rong. There have been two no-hit games and several one-hit ters . We still pick the Cardinals in the National League. The Yankees look very good in the American League, b u t . t h e Sena tors and Browns can't be counted out.

Well, we've done an awful lot of talking all year about pract ical ly nothing, but spor ts is an impor tan t par t of Hope College which we don t want to see go. We can keep going despite the war, and we can have a lot of fun , too. A f t e r all, i t 's the spiri t of the game that counts.

It 's June and tha t spells those good vacation days with a fishing pole and line (what we did on our exams!) or undoubtedly it spells work for most of us. First we should get a sun tan or more real-istically speaking—a sunburn. For all advice concerning a sunburn consult Bobbie Reed. Our seniors certainly picked out a good skip

day — no rain and all shine. Evi-dence — red faces, legs, and a r m s the next day. All guil ty persons were easily discerned.

To get back on the subject of sports , Viv Dykema is the winner of the ping-pong tournament which has been keeping us guessing f o r weeks — no months! Mary Blair is the runner-up.

We were a bit off the beam as far as the tennis match with West-ern was concerned. The less said the bet ter ! We found out that we needed more practice. It was lots of fun and we put up a good fight, but we lost in case you haven't heard about it. Sandwiches and the "pause that r e f r e shes" were a filling a f t e r m a t h .

Inter-sorori ty baseball is an un-finished product. Due to the "horn-e ry" old man weather and various campus picnics and meetings, the games could not be finished. The

winner is — well, you tell me! The baseball bat t les of the female sex on May Day af ternoon ended vic-toriously for the seniors and the f reshmen. No comments necessary 'cause my junior prejudice might creep up on me!

Sore ext remi t ies have been very common lately since the co-eds have " resor ted" to bike-riding. Ot-tawa beach seems to be a popular spot. The water is slightly on the chilly side but the sun is super-suffocating.

All in all we've had a lot of fun bowling, playing baseball, ping-pong, basketball , tennis and hik-ing. I'll see you next fall — all "hep" to s ta r t another yea r !

been h a v i n g f u r l o u g h s lately, much

to the sa t i s fac t ion of many of
