Four new members have been welcomed into Hope's facul ty for this academic year. Dr. Paul Fried has replaced Dr. Ella Hawkinson in the history deparement; Miss Betty Lindberg is teaching in Miss Jant ina Holleman's place while Miss Holleman is studying in the Netherlands; Miss Elva VanHaits-ma is director of dramatics replac-ing Miss Helen Harton who is studying a t Northwestern Univer-si ty; and Dr. Gerald Nykerk is working in the biology department . Three of the above are former Hope Students.

Dr. Fried is a native of Leipzig, Germany and received his pr imary and secondary education in Ger-many and Austria. In 1939, he came to the United States and entered Hope College. A f t e r two years of college he served in the U.S. army and returned a f t e r the war as a G.I. student. He grad-uated cum laude as a member of the class of 1946 with majors in German and in history and political science. Fried did his graduate work at Harvard where he received his M.A. in modern history. The War Crimes in Nurnberg, Ger-many, were next on his agenda as he served as chief of the section fo r German Foreign Office Trans-lation. In this position he planned, directed and reviewed the transla-tion of many of the mater ia ls and

Class of '57 Elects Marcus, Johnson Pee/en, VanEenenaam Complete Cabinet

The class of '57, on September 17, held a meeting in Durfee lounge fo r the election of its class officers. Elected were Maurice Mar-cus president, Bob Johnson, vice-president, Ethel Peelen secretary, and Dave Van Eenenaam as treas-urer.

Maurice Marcus attended high school fo r his first three years in Milwaukee and moved to Grand Rapids to complete his senior year a t Ottawa Hills High School. He played guard on the varsity foot-ball team in Milwaukee, and also served his school in track and field events. He was elected presi-dent of the choir and was a mem-ber of the orchestra. His senior year, in Grand Rapids, was an eventful one. He was on the ex-ecutive board of his class, served on the student council, and was voted the most likely to succeed and the most popular boy. The final reward fo r splendid work was the Upton Cup Award fo r the best all-around boy in school. It is re-markable tha t Maurie was able to obtain all these honors while at-tending Ottawa Hills High School fo r only his Senior year.

Maurie is a psychology major here a t Hope. Other interests in-clude music, sailing, and skiing. Since his enrollment at Hope, he has already become a member of the varsi ty football squad and the Y.M.C.A.

Frosh V.P., Bob Johnson's home town is Rochester, N.Y. , He grad-uated f r o m John Marsha l l ' High School in 1950, and was planning to enter Hope tha t fal l when he was called into the service. He

Rudolph Reiners leads the Chicago Symphony String Ensemble in a concert presentation this evening at the Hope Memorial Chapel.

Chicago String Ensemble Opens Concert Series Famous Artists Slated For Future Chapel Appearances

The Hope College 1953-54 Con-cert Series will open tonight in Hope Memorial Chapel with the appearance of the Chicago Sym-phony Str ing Ensemble. The group, consisting of fourteen members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, who have distinguished themselves as soloists and ensemble players, will be led by Rudolph Reiners.

Since their inception in 1945, the group has given concerts par-ticularly throughout the Middle W e s t . The Ensemble presents works ranging throughout the clas-sics to such moderns as Gershwin, Kern and Romberg. Critical com-ments reflecting the opinions of audiences have made repeat en-gagements a regular occurence.

Following the Ensemble in the series, November 24, will be the Trapp Family Singers. Acclaimed by the New York Times as "One of the best ensembles in the world," the fami ly has more than caught the imagination and affection of the American public.

Paul Spivak, pianist, will make his appearance January 16. Spivak, an Argentine art is t , has an enor-mous range but is particularly fa-mous fo r his interpretat ions of Latin American music. Thomas L.

Thomas, distinguished Welsh bari-tone of concert s tage, radio and television will assume the spot-light on February 6. Mr. Thomas, frequently heard as guest s ta r on "Voice of Firestone" and "Chicago Theatre of the Ai r" is also a Red Seal Victor recording ar t is t .

The last engagement in the Con-cert Series will be a request re-turn performance by the Stanley Str ing Quartet . This group is one of the finest s tr ing quar te ts in the Mid-West. Mr. Anthony Kooiker will appear with them in the Franck Quintet fo r str ings and piano.

Sponsored by Hope College fo r the college itself and the people of Holland, as a non-profit venture, the talent comprises a series of s tel lar attractions. Season tickets for all five concerts may be ob-tained at Meyer Music House and the Hope Business Office. The price is two dollars fo r students and f o u r dollars for non-students. Tickets for individual concerts will be a lollar twenty-five and sixty-five cents for non-students and students respectively. A reserved section for all season ticket holders will be held until 8:10 P.M. All en-gagements will begin at 8:15 P.M.

received his basic t raining at Camp Gordon in Georgia, and lef t the States on the 19th of Septem-ber. Bob was soon on the f ron t lines in Korea and was in the midst of the fighting on the Wes-tern Front . He received the Com-mendation Ribbon for meritorious service and was sent back to the States to Indiantown Gap in Penn-sylvania in October, 1952 as an instructor in communications. Bob was honorably discharged in Jan-uary of this year and is now taking a liberal a r t s course a t Hope.

Secretary Ethel Peelen gradu-ated f r o m Central High School in Kalamazoo. During the war, she lived here in Holland, and is well acquainted with the surrounding of Hope. While in high school she was an active member of G.A.A., pres. of the C.E. Union, a member of the queen's court, and was sec-re tary of Y'teens. Her parents are alumni of Hope College. Ethel plans to be an elementary teacher of music, since she has considerable ability in tha t field, and was a member of the robed choir and or-chestra a t Central High.

Treasurer Dave Van Eenenaam graduated f rom Muskegon High School last year a f t e r gaining much recognition fo r his capabilities fo r leadership. In his high school, he was active in sports, t reasurer of

the student council, V.P. of the National Honor Society, and HI-Y and was an active member of the Masque. He was on the varsi ty tennis team and in intramural sports. Dave, like Maurie, won an award fo r the best all-round boy of his graduat ing class, the C.W. Marsh Cup fo r senior boys. Both of Dave's parents and his brother John are alumni of Hope College. Dave is a pre-med student and plans to take his g radua te work a t the University of Michigan.

Annuo! Pull Climaxes Frosh - Soph Rivalry

In looking back over the past twenty years, the records

of eighteen pulls, twelve sophomore wins are shown as against

five freshman victories, and the (dubious) tie of last year.

Hope Science Grods

Honor Kleinheksel A member of Hope's science

faculty received recognition for his years of teaching a t the col-lege. Dr. J . Harvey Kleinheksel,

professor of chemistry, accepted honors f rom a gather ing of Hope

science alumni, with respect to his twenty-five years of service. David O. DePree, '40, presented him with a gold watch and a purse on be-

half of the group. Various mem-bers of the gather ing rose to pay particular tr ibute to Dr. Kleinhek-sel fo r his instruction and counsel

which they received as students, and to which they attr ibuted much of their success in scientific fields. Also present were Dr. I. J . Lub-bers, president of the college. Dr. Gerrit Van Zyl, head of the chem-istry department , and Mr. Clyde Geerlings, college alumni and pub-

lic relations director.

Dr. Kleinheksel graduated f rom Hope in 1922, and continued ad-vanced study a t the University of Illinois, where he secured his Mas-ters Degree in 1925, and his Doc-torate in 1927. At tha t time, con-siderable research on rare-earth elements was being conducted a t the University. Dr. Kleinheksel wrote his doctor's thesis on the "Preparat ion and Properties of Anhydrous Rare-earth Chlorides."

Upon his arrival at Hope as a professor in 1928, Dr. Kleinheksel taught chemistry and zoology in Van Raalte Hall. Later, as the en-rollment increased, he t augh t chem-istry exclusively. The new science building, completed in 1942, was badly needed a few years later when an influx of veterans greatly increased the student body.

Dr. Kleinheksel said that , the recognition paid to him by so many of his fo rmer students was indeed grat i fying.

Albany Pastor Speaks

At 89th Convocation

Thursday, September 17, Hope College officially started the new school year with the 89th Annual C o n v o c a t i o n at the Memorial Chapel. The speaker was Dr. Fred-erick Zimmerman, pastor of the First Reformed Church of Albany, New York. Dr. Zimmerman was also recently elected to the presi-dentship of the General Synod of the Reformed Church. The topic of the message was "Choose Ye This Day Whom Ye Will Serve."

Dr. Lubbers presided a t the ser-vice. Mrs. Marion de Velder of Holland contributed a soprano solo. Others part icipating were the Rev. Schoon, Dean of the Memorial Chapel, the Rev. Bert Van Malsen, of Grand Rapids, Dr. John Dyk-stra, president of the Hope Col-lege Board of Trustees, and the Rev. Clarence Hesselink of Mus-kegon.

events, has been moved up this year to October 2, 4:00 P.M., and is to be held a t the old site on Black River, behind the C & O Railroad yard. I t was held last year at the Country Club.

The rules of the contest will be much the same as in previous years, eighteen men on each side, pulling fifteen minutes in their

holes, and standing up fo r the re-mainder of the event following a one-minute rest period. To assure

uniformity of sides, spectators a re urged not to infiltrate beyond the snow fences which will separate the crowd from the teams.

Both teams a re this year, as usual, confident; the sophomores coached by Jack Kalee and Earl Laman, the f reshmen by John Mul-der, Don Bussies, John De Pree and Jer ry Giebink. Members of both

teams will toss f o r sides a t noon on the day of the contest.

As the practice period is con-siderably shorter this year, the teams have been drilling day and night. Forty-seven eager f reshmen appeared fo r practice on the first

day in contrast to twelve confident sophs. Since then the ranks of the f reshmen have diminished, and the number of sophomores has in-creased, making the sides fa i r ly

even. A committee decided last spring to move the t ime of the pull up, as class rivalry is hot ter during the orientation period.

Spectators who wish to observe the event f rom the west bank of the river may follow the direction signs f rom the Davis Die Company

driveway to the site of the con-test.

WHAT'S ON YOUR

MIND? Do you think the Kinsey report

should be in our library ?

Dave Hondorp, Junior: " I think, because it is a research book, that it would be up to the depar tment concerned to decide."

A Seminary Student: "On the point of research I think the Kin-sey report has little to offer, and under tha t department it has no place on our library shelves. How-ever, there is a certain amount of good in having the book so tha t students can understand the psy-chology behind asking the women to tell of their experiences."

Dollie Bechberger, Senior: It should be read only by ministers, doctors, and sociologists."

A Recent Alumnus: "As a re-search book i t has next to nothing. I t would seem, with all the recent publicity t ha t it was just a money-making project ."

Professor James Prins: "Areo-pagitica by Milton contains my answer." (Editor 's Note) Milton said " . . . I wrote my Areopagitica in order to deliver the press f rom the re-s t ra in ts with which it was en-cumbered; t h a t the power of de-termining what was true and what was false, wha t ought to be pub-lished and what to be suppressed, might no longer be entrusted to a f ew ill i terate and illiberal indi-viduals, who refused their sanc-tion to any work which contained views or sentiments a t all above the level of the vulgar supersti-tion . . . "

Palette and Masque Palet te and Masque, or P and M

as everybody calls it, was founded many years ago by one of the faculty. In 1946 Professor Edward Avison was brought in to head and expand its activities. In 1950, Miss Helen L. Harton came to direct our group and our growth con-tinued as we added a chapter of Pi Epsilon Delta, the National Col-legiate Players, which is a national honorary dramatics f ra te rn i ty . The years of P and M have all been years of growth and activity and we now have o u r ' own Little Theatre on the four th floor of the Science Building, with an auditor-ium, Green Room, control booth, shop, recording room, wardrobe, dressing rooms, and make up tables.

The year introduces a new di-rector to the four th floor, Miss Elva Van Haitsma, who comes from Ottawa Hills High in Grand Rapids. With hardly t ime to catch her breath. Miss Van Hai t sma has been plunged headlong into the frant ic three week preparat ion fo r the Homecoming play. This year the play selection is the J . M. Bar-rie classic. The Admirable Crichton, which is concerned with an aristo-cratic English family who rever t to the s ta te of Nature when ship-wrecked on a desert island. While there, they are willing slaves to their f o rmer butler, but on return to civilization, the positions are shifted.

Probably one of the brightest spots in the otherwise chaotic hori-zon is the presence of a "li t t le bit of England" on our campus. Chris-tine Denny, or Tweeny as she is rapidly becoming known, is famil iar with the play as she has appeared in it in England. She is most qual-ified to give the production tha t bit of English fo r the finishing touch.

EDITORIALS ANY FUTURE IN TEACHING?

A few weeks ago in a downtown restaurant, I sat alongside a man who introduced himself apologetically as a high school teacher from Detroit, three years out of Michigan State. I told him of my plans to enter his profession. " I wouldn't advise it," he said grimly, "you won't be able to live on your salary." He'd had three years of teaching in one of the state's best systems. Now he was quitting. "Sure," he admitted, " I was making $4,000 a year, but 20% went for income taxes and 5% for the teachers' retirement fund. That left me $3,000, and I just couldn't do it. And they expect you to live in a nice neighborhood, be well-dressed and take active interest in civic affairs. Finally I got completely demoralized and quit. I found I could make more money selling real estate part-time than on my yearly teacher's pay."

It was not bitterness that I observed. Just resignation in the face of discouraging circumstances. The union to which he belonged, the American Feredation of Teachers, had been hamstrung by disinterested members, mostly women, he com-plained. "It 's all right for them," he remarked. "They're just teaching for something to do, to supplement their husbands' earnings. The salary is just pin money. It means a new car or redecorating the house. I was one of two bachelors out of 70 teachers," my friend said. "All of the men had outside jobs."

He spoke of parents' disinterest in the school. "But it took the kids off their hands—they were glad for school to begin in the fall. They were tired of 'baby-sitting' for the summer. They expect the school to raise their children for them. I don't know what's become of American home life."

Under similar circumstances I spoke to another ex-teacher. He was now a fertilizer salesman. I told him I was going to teach, and he laughed at me. "Sure," he said, "when I grad-uated from M.S.C., I thought I would teach, too. One year was enough for me. I was coaching football, teaching history and a couple of other subjects I didn't know anything about. I tell you it was worth more than my salary. Now, since I quit, almost all of the teacher candidates from my class have left their teaching jobs and gone into sales."

Doubtless, there is a real challenge in the teaching profession. It can be an enjoyable and rewarding occupation. But financial worries had imposed upon these two men a heavy and unneces-sary strain, which caused them to seek relief in another occupa-tion. Each year a rather high percentage of Hope graduates enters the educational field. Are all our prospective teachers headed for disillusionment? Must teachers simply accept low wages and over-work as consequences of entering a commend-able profession? Schooling for all children, yes, indeed—but what price education?

HINGA SPEAKS ON FRATERNITIES

In a few weeks new men on Hope's campus will be thinking of joining a fraternity. Although Hope does not have National Fraternities, its fraternity life has been a part of Hope College almost from the founding of the college. These fraternities started out as Literary societies, but today I believe that they have a much broader function than just meeting once a week. Much of the social life on Hope's campus revolves about our five fraternity houses. These houses are used not only for meet-ings, but also for social functions. Almost every Friday or Saturday evening the members invite young women and faculty members over for open house. Each fraternity has a house mother who acts as hostess and helps with the refreshments and entertainment. These house mothers are selected by the college and play a very important part in the life of the fraternity.

The friendships made in belonging to one of these organiza-tions are life-long. There is nothing that develops friendships better than working and playing together. The inter-fraternity sports program, the All College Sing, float and house competi-tion at Homecoming all help build up morale. But even more than this is the effort on the part of the different fraternities to find worthwhile projects of a service nature; to help their school, the community or some one in need, near at hand or far away. These truly bind fraternities in a way that lasts long after school-days are over.

One of the essential things that all interested candidates should bear in mind is that a scholastic average of 1.7 (allowing 2 points for a "6") must be maintained by all men desiring to be taken into fraternities. The time to keep this in mind is now when classes are starting rather than later when the nine-week grades are posted.

As a closing thought for new men on Hope's Campus: give every fraternity a real chance. Keep an open mind. Be cautious of any group that tries to build up their own prestige by running down another organization. Find that group which has a constructive program and a membership that enjoys the same kind of things that you enjoy. .

$16,500 Spent For Campus Improvements

Looking about the campus you will find that there have been quite a few changes made during the summer. In fact , $16,500 was spent in the remodeling, redecoration, and repaying of the campus buildings and grounds.

The Memorial Chapel and the Science Building were the two buildings to receive most of the attention in this "house-cleaning" campaign. The chapel has had the interior washed and repainted for the first t ime since the edifice was completed in 1929. It took five men, six weeks to complete the job. The color scheme- was changed very little.

The science building, erected in 1942, has also undergone a com-plete redecoration at a cost of ap-proximately $4,000. The insurance money received a f te r the fire in the P. & M. workshop covered this expense.

Besides being face-lifted, the utility rooms and the kitchen in Voorhees Hall have had added to them a new dishwasher and a walk-in cooler.

Four class rooms in Van Raalte Hall have been redecorated, with new tablet chairs placed in two of them. The offices of the regis t rar and business manager and the cor-ridors have also been repainted.

Four dormitories, F r a t e r n a l , Knickerbocker, and A r c a d i a n houses and Van Vleck Hall, have had their lounges recarpeted. The Cosmopolitans are now living in their new house at 47 East 13th Street . This house has been re-modeled and redecorated to serve

the needs of twenty men. Campus paving includes drive-

ways to Voorhees Hall and the Emersonian and Arcadian Houses.

Frats Prepare For New Rushing Season

by Mike Denekas

The Arcadians began the new semester with their annual s tag party at tunnel park. The par ty was well attended and everyone had an enjoyable time. The Ar-cadian house is looking consider-ably bet ter this year. During the summer it was painted and a new rug was placed in the lounge. The Arkies plan a very extensive rush-ing program this year and they will work under the able leadership of President, Joe Fowler; Vice-President, Larry Veenstra; Secre-tary, Bob Van Eaarden; and Treas-urer, Don Baird.

The members of Cosmopolitan are very proud and pleased with their new home. With a stimu-lated interest the members are planning fo r the annual alumni banquet, open house, and float and house decorations. The Cosmos wish to express their thanks for the beautiful new dressers which are an added attraction to the house. The most immediate problem of the f ra te rn i ty is to create a suitable recreation room out of the spacious basement. Officers f o r the fall term are Bill Helder, President; Dave Angus, Vice-President; Tom Niles, Secretary; and Jim Hutton, Treasurer .

Emersonian has begun another year at Hope under the following first-term officers: President, Don Prentice; Vice-President, Herb Mor-gan; Secretary, Ken Gnade; and Treasurer , Gene Stoddard. The f ra te rn i ty welcomes back an old Emmie, Bob "St re tch" Wagner, who is presently completing his senior year here a f t e r serving in the Navy. At the l i terary meeting tomorrow night. Phi Tau Nu will have as its guest speaker, Lt. Ted Stickles, who was a P.O.W. and he will speak on some of his ex-periences in Korea. The f ra te rn i ty is gra tefu l for the new drive way which was resurfaced this summer.

Seventy folding chairs f rom American Seating Company, do-nated by the Alumni is one of the most important improvements to the Fra te rna l Society. A new rug in the lounge, new lights in the study, and new mattresses were also much needed and appreciated additions. The famed f r a t e r com-bo has s tar ted practising. With the old members back and the ad-dition of a few new members, the combo should be just as good as last year. The f ra t e rn i ty fo r the fall term, will be under the capable leadership of Monte Dyer with Rod Wissink, J im Van Put ten and Norm Lager filling the roles of Vice-President, S e c r e t a r y and Treasurer respectively.

Book Fines Provide Library Improvements

The appearance of the new Ven-etian blinds in the reading room of Graves' Library over the summer serves as another in a long list of improvements which the library staff under the direction of Miss Singleton has at tempted to invoke over the past few years. The money for the blinds was taken from the Student Fine Fund which Miss Singleton set up fo r just such in-ternal improvements.

In the past the money has been used for book-binding, steel racks, and redecoration purposes; but in order that the students might bet-ter be aware of the benefits of the project, Venetian blinds were chosen by the Council.

bockers. The members have been working hard to complete the job and hope to have it done by late fall. New carpet in the lounge and four chairs reupholstered were much needed additions to the house. Four Knicks are in charge of the

pull team this year. John Mulder is head coach with Don Bussies, Gerry Giebink, and John DePree acting as assistants. A band will again be formed this year by the Knicks. Nick Pool, Ron Powles, and Bill St. John will form the nucleus of the band, which was featured at several functions held last year at the Woman's Literary Club. The new officers fo r the fall term will be: President, Don Shull; Vice-President, Ron Brown; Secretary, Warren Buitendorp; and Treasurer, John Mulder.

Kenneth Erickson, 1952 Hope graduate, has been awarded the Bronze S tar Medal for valor. Erickson, a mechanic in Korea with the Heavy Tank Company, 15th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Division helped to pull, out under enemy fire, seven mud-bound tanks, each worth $250,000.

The Brooklyn soldier did it short-ly before the armistice in company with two other men f rom his out-fit. They drove their retriever one-half mile behind enemy lines where the tanks had become bogged down. When the retriever, a con-verted M-4 medium tank, reached the spot, the enemy surrounded them on three sides according to the Army Times.

"The mud came clear up over our wheels and up to our knees," Erickson said. "We had to drive up close to the tanks and then hook the winch cables up by crawl-ing underneath the tanks, so we woudn't get shot by snipers. It took us f rom an hour to an hour and a half to get a tank back into hard ground."

While at Hope, E r i c k s o n , "Swede" to most of us, was a member of the Emersonian f r a -ternity and fo r four years sang with the Men's Glee Club.

Snow, Cavanaugh Direct Glee Clubs, Chapel Choir

Reitberg Conducts Chancel Chorus

This year as in former years try-outs were held f o r the chapel choir. Since the choir is limited to seventy members, the chancel choir has been created for the over-flow of students who enjoy sing-ing.

Once again the chapel choir and men's glee club a re under the direction of Dr. Robert Cavanaugh and Mrs. Curtis Snow is directing the women's glee club. The men in chapel choir also make up the men's glee club although the per-sonnel in the girls ' glee club and those in the choir are not entirely the same. The choir's tour of the East , with its fea ture stop at Radio City Music Hall, received such an enthusiastic response that the ad-ministration of Hope classifies the tour as one of the best "good will" policies of the college. It is still undecided what par t of the country the choir will tour next spring. Much will depend on where they get the most invitations. Last spring the choir recorded several numbers with R.C.A. Victor. A few of these long playing records are still available in the Blue Key Bookstore fo r $6.00. A small per-centage of one of the shipments had flaws. If you obtained one of these, you may re turn it to the Blue Key and the company will replace the record f r e e of charge.

Chancel choir will meet fo r the first time this year on Thursday, October 1, in the Y.M.C.A. room. It will be under the direction of Mr. Roger Rietberg. The concert plans of the chancel choir are in-definite as yet. Mr. Rietberg is Director of Music a t the Third Re-formed Church here in Holland, and he cordially welcomes anyone who enjoys singing to join the chancel choir.

Meyer Revisits Paris For Study, Vacation

Paris , toujours Paris! Tha t seems to be the theme of the French Department a t Hope. Miss Nella Meyer, on her four th t r ip to France this summer, spent five weeks in the historic Latin Quar ter where she attended lectures a t the Sor-bonne. These enriching lectures covered the language, music, ar t , l i terature, philosophy, and history of France and were given by men who were experts in their respec-tive fields and who combined their knowledge with great enthusiasm making it an extremely inspira-tional series.

While in Paris Miss Meyer visited with Jane t Tuttle, a fo rmer Hope student who is now studying at the Alliances Francaises.

One of the highlights of Miss Meyer's trip was a four day week-end spent in Holland where she visited several of the great mu-seums and was quite for tuna te in having the opportunity to see an exhibition of the works of Vincent Van Gogh in Amsterdam.

Her tr ip was climaxed by an eighteen day tr ip to the Southern par t of France. She travelled to Switzerland, stopping to visit many beautiful and historical cities en route. In Nice she was thrilled a t catching a glimpse of Henri Ma-tisse, the grea t modernistic painter. She went through the Riviera and then down to Albi to view an ex-hibit of Toulouse-Lautrec works be-fore re turning to Paris . Af te r five days there she departed for the United States via London and Ice-land.

Miss Meyer brought back almost 400 pictures which will be shown to some college groups in the near fu ture .

NEW BOOKS Always the Young Strangers by Carl Sandburg

Carl Sandburg por t rays the story of his life in the small town in which he was born, and uncon-sciously reveals how America was ingrained in him. The reader gains some idea of the par t the Swedes played in sett l ing the Midwest. To many an older reader it will be a nostalgic reminder of his own small town beginning. To the young reader it will be a revelation of the vast changes in the American way of life in less than a lifetime.

From the hundred examples of short stories published in popular and literary magazines during the past year.

Flashy Runs Feature Dutch Assault On Comets, 2 5 - 0

Hope had too much for Olivet here last Friday night, drub-bing the MIAA newcomers, 25-0. Superiority in fundamentals, blocking and tackling, coupled with aggressiveness, was the difference. Using only a straight, simple offense, the Dutch rolled over the opposition easily.

There were anxious moments, though, early in the game. Shadows of the ragged Normal contest remained as Hope fumbled the first two times they had the ball, Olivet recovering both. The defense pulled the team out of trouble. Then, an electrifying 74 yard run by Frank Talarico behind excellent downfield blocking had the crowd roaring wildly—but a famil iar red handkerchief on the field changed the cheers to cries of "Not again!" The touchdown was nullified and Hope penalized 15 yards fo r clipping.

In the second period, Kempker broke loose fo r 52 yards and a T.D. The ext ra point t ry was missed and the 6-0 score stood at half-time.

On the kickoff s tar t ing the sec-ond half , Talarico took the ball, charged s t ra ight up the field be-hind a wedge of blockers, veered through, a hole tha t opened to his left and sprinted fo r his first tally of the year, a run covering 92 yards. Again the extra point was missed.

Playing with more spirit, Hope shortly a f t e r connected for a T.D. on their first pass of the game, a 20 yard toss f rom Voss to Adams. Kempker converted, making the score 19-0.

With this lead. Coach A1 Vander-bush sent in his reserves the re-mainder of the 3rd quarter and most of the 4th, the first s tr ing re-turning in the final four minutes to move the ball down to the Olivet 15, Talarico taking it over f rom there. The game ended with Hope on top, 25-0.

Olivet had only two drives. One was broken up by Herm Nienhuis who intercepted a pass on his 27 and went to Olivet's 29. The other was a g i f t f rom Hope as four con-secutive penalties, including 15 yards against Coach Vanderbush, were marched off. Trying to push across the goal line under their own power. Olivet's offense fizzled out.

Downfield blocking had notice-ably improved over the Normal per-formance, sett ing up long runs for the Dutch backs, who in turn used their blockers effectively. The backs, first and second str ing, were superb, running brilliantly at times and faking well.

Hope Hung By Hurons, Selves

Hope's gridiron Dutchmen kicked off the '53 season by running up against a steady, strong Michigan Normal squad f rom Ypsilanti in Riverview park but played them on even terms, a pair of Dutch bobbles set t ing up the margin of victory as the Hurons came out on top, 21-6.

Twice the visitors pushed over tallies by almost identical means, each time get t ing possession of the pigskin bare yards from paydir t thru Hope misplays on punting at-tempts. The remaining yardage was easly eaten up to give the Hurons a 14-0 half t ime lead.

It was an intercepted pass by Fullback Ron Oestrike and a 22-yard runback of it tha t helped to put the contest out of reach of the Dutch squad in the final stanza, altho they bounced back with a potent drive that netted them a score before time ran out. John Adams sneaked thru fo r 26 yards to account fo r Hope's total.

Game statistics, other than the final score, give indication of the real closeness of the f r ay , the Dutch racking up more first downs than their opponents and outgain-ing them by two yards.

Rivalries Open In Tennis, FB, Golf For Frats

In t ramurals activity between the fraterni t ies , an independent squad, and a representation f rom Western Seminary began this week in the three fall sports, touch football, tennis and golf, with play to con-tinue in each during the ensuing weeks.

Football setup lists two nights a week fo r play, Monday and Wed-nesday, games s tar t ing at 4:15 on the athletic fild. Two games per night are slated. Teams are made up of seven players each, with three linemen and four backfield-men. The games are governed by a body of rules drawn up by the intramural managers, one f rom each f ra t e rn i ty and one f rom the Seminary, and Russ DeVette, who is director of the intramural pro-gram.

Tennis is to be run as in former years, with divisions in singles and doubles. Each organization enters t w o singles players and one doubles team, a total of four dif-ferent men. A tourney schedule is drawn up and play advances ac-cording to it. As in the past, the finals in the singles will be played on Homecoming morning. Firs t round action in the tournament s tar ted this week. A point system is used to determine the winning organization, one point being given for each advancing round a f t e r the first one.

Golf teams composed of three men each, also are scheduled fo r immediate activity. Winning squad will be determined by the total team score, low tally winning. Each man is to play two rounds of eighteen holes each. f Each entrant will play his rounds at his own convenience, the only stipulation being tha t a member of some other team be present at the time.

Already twice holder of an all-conference berth, once at the tackle slot and once at guard, the senior team leader will be shooting fo r the honor again this year but f rom the end of the line.

fense. Hermie Nienhuis, a back-field man in his previous exper-ience, is a new member of the line. The fo rmer offensive fullback and defensive linebacker is now adapt-ing himself to the guard position.

Three rugged tackles, junior Bill Heydorn and sophs John Hollander and Doc VanHoeven, all just de-fensemen last year, a re now going both ways. Ed Stapert , a tackle on the offense and linebacker on defense in the past, is filling in a t guard on the current squad, drop-ping back to linebacker on most defensive plays.

Always a capable blocker, Don VanderToll, who never played de-fensive ball before in either col-lege or high school, is proving him-self an adept tackier as well. Ex-linebacker John Brannock has been learning the fundamentals of the offensive end position as well as still holding down his old spot.

This is the year pre-released starting lineups again have more than a fifty-fifty chance of being correct. The may or may not, depending on the coin-flip, of the past few seasons is dated this year. Now the unit that opens has to go both ways.

The anti-two platoon dictate was concocted since last season by some sort of authoritative body, with the real engineering allegedly handled by a few of the bigger big time athletic chiefs. What they have in mind can be inferred—college football is headed in an unhealthful, perhaps eventually disastrous, direc-tion and something has to be done about it. But the validity of their methods is open to dispute.

As long as such things as hiring of talent at fabulous sums —talent, that is, in a specific sport, certainly, in most cases,, not in anything else—are tolerated, as long as the ideals under-lying academic institutions are made a travesty, there will be elements of rottenness in collegiate athletics, football - among them.

Football evils are mostly limited to big time schools, where they go to ridiculous extremes to make believe they're good, or better, or best, or something like that. But there are small schools swept with vision of glory also and the movement is still forebodingly in that direction, giving rise to more foolish policies by more schools.

These policies are no good and this new rule will do little to change them. About the only results from it will be a less cluttered field and more money talent on the bench.

Among the ranks of fandom there are a great many un-savory types. But the lowest of all is the cur who hoots and jeers and cheers when someone on the other side gets crocked.

^ * * * * *

We feel it noteworthy of mention that one of the members of the college has distinguished himself in one of the finer phases of current day living. Besides doubling as the dean of the college he has proved himself in the field of football forecasting, in which last Friday in a pre-game prediction he gave Hope a 24-0 victory.

Bernie Stremler, Henry Young, Ron Reinink, Gordie La m a n , Don Meeuwsen, Henry Van Farowe and Jack Moermond; all are inexper-ienced but show promise of f u t u r e success. Ted DeVries is handling the managerial duties.
