December 4, 1985 Hope College Anchor Volume 97, Number 13 Johnson Speaks on Women's Rights By Meg Miller "To be a man'is not to be a woman" was the definition of a man given last Thursday in a radical speech on feminism and equal rights for women. Sonia Johnson, a feminist from Virginia, came to Hope on November 21 to speak to students, faculty, and communi- ty on the topic of "From Housewife to Heretic: Sonia's Story." This is also the title of Johnson's book. Johnson, sponsored by the Women's Issues Organization, religion department, psychology department, political science department, and the history department, holds a Doctorate Degree in education from Rutgers University. Johnson, who was excom- municated from the Morman Church in 1979 for supporting the Equal Rights Ammendment has since been active in both feminist and peace movements. Besides author-lecturer, feminist, and peace activist, Johnson was also a 1984 presiden- tial candidate as a represen- tative of the Citizen Party. Johnson brought up many issues pertaining to the strife bet- ween women and men. She entitl- ed it a war between the sexes. Her issues for feminism and equal rights centered around how women are and should be treated, the neeti of the male society to learn to love women and the avoidance or fear of men to portray womanly feelings and actions. "It is unnatural to have one group rule another," Johnson said. "That is rich over poor, col- or over color, country over coun- try, or male over female." Chaplain Gerard VanHeest believes that the feminist move- ment would progress farther and faster if it didn't carry such a we- they issue. "You don't overcome an evil monster by bringing up a new master," Chaplain VanHeest said. "Both sides of any of the groups Johnson claimed to have dominating power need to work side by side, together." Johnson saw this war as a system of patriarch-half of a race ruled by the other half. "Not only is this just a war it's a physical attack. Women are raped by men everyday. War is too small of a word to describe this tragedy in a women's life. Men have hated, hurt, and belittl- ed us," Johnson said. "Men are trained to hate us!" Many students attending the lecture both opposed and sup- ported Johnson's feelings of con- flict between women and men. "There are two types of peo- ple, those that accept what is and work within that, and those that blame others or make excuses and don't feel their own choices make a difference," Dave Brat said. "Sonia Johnson places this conflict between the sexes all on the fault of men." Tracy Grandstaff found Johnson to be inspiring. "I liked her idea of Global Society," Grandstaff said. "In order to sur- vive in the future we first must resolve terrritorial boundaries in our own society then proceed to resolve those between coun- tries." ' "Her political policies aren't possible," Gary Dozeman said. "There never was and never will be world peace with the solution of equality between women and men." Johnson expressed the need to affirm womanhood. She said women are not responsible for what happened in the past yet we all (male and female) are in con- trol of what happens in the future. "We must elevate the state of women so things that are womanly are elevated," Johnson said. "If men feel it's wrong to ex- press their womanly feelings (love, tenderness, gentleness and sensitivity according to Johnson) then they are having a war with themselves not women," Beth Weiseiger said. "It appears one day someone listed certain feel- ings as men's and others as women's and they stuck. In reali- ty both Ibexes possess the same feelings yet don't always express them due to society norms." "I saw some historical inac- curacies and overstatements in her lecture. She tried to bring the gospel and women's rights together," religion depart- ments's Dennis Voskuil said. "Her idea of the boy's club with God as president contradicts the gospel. Christ and the Bible are both non-sexes so why would they form a boy's club?" • Certain members from both sexes saw Johnson as having a feminist world view.Of these members was Fonda Green, director of non-traditional students. She saw Johnson as be- ing a unique feminist on target to the general theme which feminism is about. Green saw her as a real person, with well thought-out ideas, putting on no show. Carol Juth, VanZoren Library research director, sees most feminist as women wanting to get their share of the pie. "I view- feminism much the same as Sonia Johnson does," Juth said "You need to look at the pie as a whole, find what's important, and decide if it's worth having (loniiiinrfl on Page 3 Nursing Program Receives Final Approval z k The Hope-Calvin Nursing Pro- gam, a cooperative bac- calaureate nursing program of- fered at Hope and Calvin College in Grand Rapids, has received full approval from the Michigan Board of Nursing.

According to Lindner each has one vote. In her words, 'They really don't have any power (as an in- dividual).' From there McDowell asked Congress why they needed an ammendment if members of the appropriations committee excuse themselves from their own groups funding.

Johnson Speaks on
Women's Rights By Meg Miller
"To be a m a n ' i s not to be a woman" was the definition of a man given last Thursday in a radical speech on feminism and equal rights for women.
Sonia Johnson, a feminist from Virginia, came to Hope on N o v e m b e r 21 to s p e a k to students, faculty, and communi-ty on the topic of " F r o m Housewife to Heretic: Sonia's Story." This is also the title of Johnson's book.
Johnson, sponsored by the Women's Issues Organization, religion department , psychology depar tment , political science department, and the history department , holds a Doctorate D e g r e e in e d u c a t i o n f r o m Rutgers University.

Nursing Program Receives Final
Approval
z k
The Hope-Calvin Nursing Pro-g a m , a c o o p e r a t i v e bac -calaureate nursing program of-fered at Hope and Calvin College in Grand Rapids, has received full approval from the Michigan Board of Nursing.
The program received initial approval from the Board in April, 1982. The first class graduated in 1984. With the graduation of the second class last spring the program became eligible for consideration of full approval by the state agency.
While baccalaureate nursing programs in leiberal ar ts col-leges such as Hope and Calvin are commonplace, cooperative programs between educational institutions are not. Upon com-pletion of the four-year cur-riculum on either the Hope or Calvin campus , the student receives the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree.
The colleges work cooperative-ly with Butterworth Hospital in Grand Rapids and Holland Com-munity Hospital which serve as clinical sites.
Students take pre-nursing and
college core curr iculum re-quirements on their 'home' cam-pus. In the junior year they for-mally enter the joint nursing pro-gram and take classes on both campuses and at the clinical sites.
Hope College, with an enroll-ment of 2,530 students, is af-f i l ia ted with the Re fo rmed Church in America. Calvin Col-lege, with a student body of 4,000, is a college of the Christian Reformed Church.
T h e r e a r e c u r r e n t l y 126 students enrolled in the program. The first two graduating classes totalled 99 students. Niney-eight percent of those graduates subse-quently passed the State 's licenc-ing exam on the first at tempt, a percentage considered to be well above the norm.

Congress Nixes Appropriations Ammendment
by Brian Breen The controversial appropria-
tions ammendment proposed by Ramin Ahmadi was defeated at the last meeting of the Student C o n g r e s s on T h u r s d a y , November 21.
Ahmadi supported the propos-ed ammendment on the grounds that 'paid' leaders in student organizations have a conflict of interest when sitting in ort ap-p r o p r i a t i o n s c o m m i t t e e meetings.

Rolling into finals, everything tends to build up and hover over your head, waiting for the most inoppotune moment possible to fall on your head. This is part of the contract that we all sign when we come to college, and, for better or worse, it is a pretty well maintained one, too.
Things can get depressing around this time of year, what with finals and all. Being far from home, friends and family can be try-ing too. Tempers burn on shorter fuses, and no ne seems to have very much that's good to say.
Cept me, of course. But that's because 1 am an obnoxious sort and like being happy when others ain't just for the sake of an-tagonizing them. So, I'm going to be happy at all of you for the space of a few lines here, in the hope that you will find something to be happy about yourselves.
One: school's almost over for the semester. Finals or no, we're almost done, and that is reason for major league celebration.
Two; it's Christmas. The season of light and life. Anyone notic-ed how happy regular people get around Christmas (discounting all scrooges and grinches and suchlike)? Downtown, all the mer-chants are more pleasant than normal, strangers say hello when you pass them on the street, little kids go around with goofy grins plastered all over their faces because they know that the fat man's a comin pretty soon, and that too is reason for major league celebration.
Three: we got snow. Finally. To all those lack wit moaners out there who can't abide the stuff, I ask 'why are you here, then?' Snow is fun. Go out an enjoy a snowball fight, build a snowman with your boy or girlfriend, your housemates, yer family, whomever is handy. Try a walk at night down Eighth Street; it can be suprisingly pretty at night, especially with all the little lights up in the trees.
Three things, which, if you look at them in the right way, can be truly pleasent. Too many people around this time of year get all grim and morose and spend infernal amounts of time seeking out the bad things that they suppose surround them. Nothing's good, nothing's fun, on and on and on until it seems they cannot possibly find anything more to complain about.
This is the greatest season of the year. It allows for unlimited sentimentality, far beyond the bounds of normal tolerance. There's a lot to be enjoyed out there, and a lot of ya seem to be looking right through it in the midst of the hunt for things to gripe about.
Get out and enjoy life. Play in the snow, go shopping, call up friends, whatever. Don't let the problems of the moment weigh you down.
Emotional entreaty over. Seriously, though, Hope College, give it a try. You'd be suprised at how good it can feel.
For myself, and on behalf of the entire Anchor staff, have the merriest of Christmases, and a restful break.

F r o m a more realist ic point of view, the s taged mishap was quite mediocre when you think about what really happens in alcohol related accidents.
The mock accident shocked many people, including myself . There were alot of people who were shocked that that type of thing would happen on Hope's conserva t ive campus . Think, however, that it could have possibly dissuaded at least one person from drinking. That is one less intoxicated driver and one less potential fatal i ty.
Granted, there a re people who think they can drink and still dr ive capably. The person in the previous story thought he could too, but he found out differently. That story was true, except that the boy was 18 and the b a r was in Georgetown, home of the Hoyas, Pa t r ick Ewing, of high fashion, and of M street , where the drink-ing age is 18.
I t ' s t rue that Georgetown is more of a par ty town, but the dr iver was f rom a more conser-vative par t of Maryland. He ig-nored the fact that drunk driving could kill someone. The cha rges of homocide were dropped and he only had to pay a $500 fine because it was his f irst offense. Could you live with the fact tha t you had just killed an innocent child? I doubt it.

In the last few weeks, the cam-pus publications have car r ied ar-ticles a t tacking the quality ot their writing. In response to this, Mark Rebhan and Kirk Kraetzer have written ar t icles in the Anchor. Rebhan / responds in par t icular to the excellent ar t icle by George Schutt. Krae tzer makes a moe broadly-based response.
Rebhan ' s point is that teh Hope writing Style, as described by Schutt, is perfect ly acceptable. In order to m a k e this point, he amplif ies and exaggera tes this technique to the point of nausea . Frequently a small child will misbehave in order to gain atten-tion. If ones knows that this is the case, then one is wise to withhold f rom puniahing the child, lest he cont inue the misbehavior even more . This is the effect that Schutt ' s letter has had on Rebhan. Rebhan main-
- tains that everyone mus t have a style. But style for its own sake has no value. The National Enquirer has a style. Rehban also s ta tes that he is t 4trying to expand our attention span . " I suppose that we Little People should be gra tefu l tha t he is help-ing to educate us. However, to suggest that it is somehow his du-ty to " i m p r o v e " his r e a d e r ' s
/ ' a b i l i t y ' " is a pompous af f ront to an intelligent r eade r .
Kra tzer ' s point is that those who a t tack the Hope Writing Style a re trying to stifle the writers ' creat ivi ty . He write tha t we are pa r t of a la rger con-spiracy including all of the Hope college <4grown-ups" to s t a m p our a semblance of original thought in the student body. This is hogwash and a insult to every member of the Hope communi ty . I have no objection to creat ivi ty .
In addition. I have never taken a course in which, as Krae tzer sescribes, we "vomi t back r e a m s of information that our profs pump into us..with nary chance to think on our own." In most of my courses, I have either been rewarded for my creativi ty or punished for lack thereof.
As with style, creativi ty for its own sake has little value'. Hitler was creat ive. Creativity is cer-t a in ly b e t t e r t h a n a non-creativity, but ther must be more to good writing.
A good wri ter of ' journal ism should be able to convey his or her thoughts ina logical and organized fashion. A confusing word-salad of disjointed ideas is not journal ism and has no place in a newspaper . A little sa lad at the side of the pla te is quite nice, but an ent i re banquet of Salad with no m e a t can be very bland. Creativity and style without a good purpose is simply gib-berish.

AED Celebrates Silver Anniversary
by Liz Sands Hope's chapter of Alpha Ep-
silon Delta celebrated its 25th an-niversary with a banquet on November 19,1985.
A E D i s t h e n a t i o n a l premedical society, and Hope is a member of the Michigan Beta chapter. David Burdette, a senior biology major , is presi-dent of this organization.
Father Joe Walter, national president of the premedical society and chemistry professor at Not re d a m e , p r e s e n t e d Burdette with a scroll certifying Hope's membership of 25 years.
The meeting started at 6:30 p.m. with punch. A dinner of chicken with supreme sauce was served and speeches and presen-tation of the scroll occured at 8 p.m. 35 people, including students, faculty, alumni and community members attended. Burdette started the speeches off with a note of welcome and in-troduced Dr. Eugene Jekel , faculty advisor of AED.
Jekel highlighted the history of Alpha Epsilon Delta. This o r g a n i z a t i o n w a s f o r m e d November 19, 1960. In the spring of 1984 AED was presented with an activities award in Birm-ingham, Alabama for the years of 1982-1984.
Father Walter then spoke. Walter started off by talking about AED's motto--4Truth I pursue'--and its relation to Chris-tianity.
He added that there were only 76 chapters of AED in 1960. Last summer the 146th chapter was installed at Michigan State University. Burdette and Jekel were there at the installation.
Hope has given to the Beta Chapter 425 years of faithful, con-tinuous service, ' Walter said.
He then presented the scroll to Burdette. 'On behalf of thena-tional office, the national officers and all 146 chapters , ' Walter said, i have the honor of presen-ting this certificate to Alpha Ep-silon Delta. '
C o n g r a t u l a t o r y c o m m e n t s came next from Hope Preseident Dr. Gordon J . Van Wylen. Van WYlen reaff i rmed Hope's pride in the premedical society. 'I 'd like to reaff irm out committment
as a college to have the strongest possible premedica l society, ' Van Wylen said.
He also added that he wanted students to have the finest possi-ble education, and that AED is an excellent opportunity to excer-cise leadership.
The evening's address was by Dr. Bruce Messelink, a 1965 Hope graduate and practicing surgeon in the Holland area . The address was entitled 'Crisis or Opportuni-ty-'
'No crisis will ever appear in your life,' Masselink said, 'only opportunity.'
M a s s e l i n k s a i d t h a t the premedical s tudent 's committ-ment begins early in their school years. 'That mental image maintained many of us,' he said, 'and it really helped in medical school.
Today's doctors, and apsiring doctors, encounter many pro-blems, he added, also saying that there are too many doctors, too few health care dollars, and in-creasing malpract ice suits.
'Today we are faced with many people, and medicine is coming to an end.' Masselink went on to say that medicine has come a long way. He talked about an-t i b i o t i c a n d g e n e t i c ad-vancements , development of ultrasonography and lasers and remedies for infertility.
'Medical t r iumphs grew out of the changes of their times, ' Masselink said, 'and our times. '
he also remarked that the liberal ar ts education here at Hope will improve a student 's adaptability to obstacles ahead, Masselink said.
'Successfully completing tasks here helps you to solve crises later. '
he concluded by saying that never before have doctors had to be so well prepared as now because Hope's students will be 'assuming health care at the turn of the century. '
Alpha Epsilon Delta recogniz-ed those students interested in the medical field and who main-tain a 3.0 gpa. The rest of AED's 1985-86 officers a r e Sean O'Con-nor, vice president; Bruce Bour-don, t reasurer ; Janice Day, secretary and Kyria Boundy, historian.
Women's Week Schedule Announced
\
We just want to strive for an equal piece, nothing more. You have to look at the cost of having a bigger piece."
Yet others, including Jodi Foutch, sized up Johnson ' s speech to have an evangelical tone, like a revival, striking at emotions ra ther than knowledge. The speech had an introduction, emotional appeal, a plead, a ser-mon, and ended with a hymm.
Johnson concluded her talk on feminism and equal rights by making all the men in the au-
dience honorary women,giving them the feel ings and op-p o r t u n i t i e s to e x p e r i e n c e precious womanhood. Upon this note Johnson asked all- the women and honorary women to stand, take hands, and become one. In closing all were asked to participate in the singing of a hymm-like song about women.

The Women's Week Planning Committee has announced the dates for the second annual Hope College Women's Week. It is scheduled to take place January 28-February 21,1986.
This week is designed for students, the community, the ad-ministration, faculty and spouses to attend sponsored events and open classes as a recognition of women and their contributions.
A few of the highlights of Women's Week include a presen-tation by J a n e Byrne, the former mayor of Chicago. She was the first woman to ever hold the of-fice and was elected by a stag-gering 82 percent of the voters. Byrne will be here on Tuesday,
J a n u a r y 28 as the w e e k ' s Keynote speaker.
Lisa Sergio will speak on Thursday, Jan . 30 as the visiting Meyer Lecturer, a fund designed to bring women to campus in the field of fine a r t s and humanities. Sergio is a woman with an in-credible life history, some of which she will share on the 30th. She is an author, lecturer, and broadcaster. She currently pro-duces P r a y e r Through the Ages, which is broadcast weekly by WMAL and is in its 25th year .
M a r g e R o u k e m a , a Con-gresswoman from New Jersey , is tentatively scheduled for Fr iday, Jan. 31. A theatrical production by Nancy Brooks is planned for
ABOU
Saturday, Feb. 1 at 8 p.m. It is a play entitled Woman's Word and celebrates the cycles, renewal, and strengths in women's lives by using a dramat ic anthology of poetry, d rama , letters, and jour-nals by women writers in an ex-cellent one-woman performance.
The Women of the Calabash will perform Saturday, Feb. 2 at 8 p.m. They visited Hope last year and are returning to give a dynamic and rhythmic dedica-tion to traditional and new music forms through instruments of

For most college freshmen, the end of the Foil Semester is the first
experience they wi l l hove with
book buy-bock ot the Bookstore.
Many students come from high schools where books were either loaned free or rented for a small
fee and they have become accustomed to returning all of their books at the end of each semester. This is not the case in college, where books are purchased outright by the student, and resale values are determind by a variety
of market conditions, (for the
uninitiated this can sometimes be a rude realization).
What follows are some of the typical questions we get every year about book buy-back with some answers that we hope wil l increase your understanding of how the system works.
WHAT IS BOOK BUY-BACK? Book buy-back (as opposed to book refunds) is an opportunity for students to recover some of the money they have spent for course books which they do not wish to keep in their personal libraries. Book buy-back is held during the last two weeks of each semester
and at that t ime books are purchased by the bpokstore for the follown.g semester. This process ic.yv'-.s books from those wishing
' sen to those wishing to buy and (; jv#^ the bookstore to offer used book^ us wel l as new ones.
HOW DOES BOOK BUY-BACK WORK? There are two possibilities
for selling books at the Bookstore.
The first involves books being used
at Hope in the next semester (for these we must have a WRITTEN order from the professor). These books are bought at 60% of the purchase price for hardcovers and
50% for paperbacks. The quantities are sometimes limited by projected class enrollments and the number of books the bookstore already has on hand.
The second option for selling is
through the Follet Used Book Co. The bookstore is an agent for
Follett and is authorized to pay the prices quoted in their 'Bluebook.' These prices average about 25% of the current retail price but can vary widely depending on the demand for that t it le. Some books bring $8 or $10 while others are listed at as low as 25* and 50*. In general we do
not encourage students to sell books through Follett unless it appears that the books have litt le chance of being used again at Hope. WHY WONT" THE BOOKSTORE BUY ALL MY BOOKS? The most frequent answer to this question is that the book has gone into a new edition. Most popular college texts are updated every 3 to 5 years,
resulting in new editions. These
new editions usually come into immediate use, rendering the old
STARTS FRIDAY DEC. 6 th
editions obsolete. Old editions are
rarely purchased by either the Bookstore or the Follett Used Book
C o -There are also some books
discontinued at Hope which have no national resale value and therefore are not even listed in the Follett
Buying Guide. (These books tend to be SMALL PAPERBACKS OR RELIGIOUS TITLES.)
PLEASE REMEMBER there is never a g u a r a n t e e that t ex tbooks purchased by students wil l ever be
used again by any instructor
anywhere in the country. Students
should not buy books with the expectation of reselling every one • that happens in very few cases. The real value of a book is obtained by studying it carefully. If it can be sold when no longer needed, then that is an extra bonus.

Symphony Concert Enchanting
by Kirk Kraetzer, reported by Dave McWaters
On Fr iday , November 22, the Grand Rapids Symphony and S y m p h o n i c c h o i r c a m e to Holland, and presented an en-chanted evening of music to Hope College and Holland.
Under the direction of Richard Hayman, the Principle Con-ductor of the Detroit Symphony Orches t ra ' s Pops Series, the Symphony shined in a beautiful tr ibute to the music of composers R o g e r s a n d H a m m e r s t e i n , known best for their musicals such as Oklahoma and The Sound of Music.
Also performing were Ronald Rogers, baritone, and Anita Darian, mezzo-soprano. Rogers has a long record of experience in doing the music of Rogers and Hammers te in , and it showed clearly in a magnif icent singing job that night. Not only an ex-cellent singer, but he lived the par t s as well, putting energy and enthusiasm into each effort.
Highlights of his included 'Sur-rey with the finge on top' and a moving rendition of 'Some En-chanted Evening. '
Darian, although an excellent
singer, seems oetter suited to more operatic pieces. She seem-ed to be holding herself back in places, not letting the full effect of her voice come through. Her presentation of 'Climb Ev ' ry Mountain, ' however, was superb, espec ia l ly du r ing the more operatic segments of the piece.
Conductor Hayman was a delight. A polished enter tainer , he brought out the best in both singers and orchest ra , each of the v groups appear ing to enjoy working with him. The En t r ac t e by the Orchest ra was delightfully well played, heightened all the m o r e b y H a y m a n ' s p e r -formance.
Combined with the Symphonic c h o i r , t h e f i n a l e of t h e ' O k l a h o m a ' p r o v e d an ex-hilarating cl imax to the show. Other highlights of the chorus were the men ' s singing of 'There is Nothing Like a Dame ' and the e n t i r e c h o r u s ' v e r s i o n of 'Edelweiss. '
Overall, an excellent show, once again showing the quality of the GRS and the Symphonic Choir. An enchanted evening that will remain in the hear t and mind for quite some time.

Hunting Season Opens Today No, it 's not duck season; and
no it 's not rabbi t season (nor even f iddler c r a b season) . I t ' s punk season. T h a t ' s right, in an effort to beau t i fy Amer i can col-lege campuses , the D e p a r t m e n t of E d u c a t i o n a l I n s t i t u t i o n Beaut i f icat ion has announced that s t a r t ing today, it is open season on weird ha i rdos .
Many of you m a y be asking, " J u s t what the heck do you m e a n ? ! " Well, exact ly what we said. The punk look is out, and we ' re mak ing su r e it 's out to s tay. Said George Dorn of the DNR of the over population of the punker herds . " I t is a d i sas te rous situation tha t will eventual ly lead to s t a rva t ion for the he rds anyway. . . t he re just won't be enough ha i r dye and lea ther goods to go a r o u n d , " At lanta Hope of the Env i ronmen ta l Pro-tection Agency had this to say , "Thinning the herd in this way will p reven t la rge scale dea th and persecut ion of the punke r herds . We feel it is the only humane solut ion. . ."
Okay, so you ' r e not d reaming , it is finally your chance to go and bag yourself a mohawk. But, you say, just what a r e the definit ions of legal punkers , and how m a n y a re you allowed. Well, these a r e all good quest ions that good hunters a lways have in mind. I'll try and answer all your quest ions as best I can .

Well, t h e r e y ou have it. So, s ta r t ing tonight at 4 p .m. it is open season, for one month , on all punker type persons, it m a k e s this r e p o r t e r proud to be an Amer ican . Yankee Doodle.

Congress Discusses Nose-Pickin by L. TeKirk
I m m e d i a t l y prior to the outlawing of Student Congress by Student Congress (see related ar-ticle), Student Congress, in an emergency meeting, held intense discussion over the recent plague of public nose-pickers on cam-pus.
Several members of Congress were worried as to whether or not this recent phenomenon would affect Hope's chances to b e c o m e an i n t e r n a t i o n a l l y recognizd institution. Ex-Anchor editor Greg Olgers, contacted at his Minnesota home, when asked as to whether or not it would af-fect the College's rep, said 'It might. Or not.'
Congress also heard reports from several repeat offenders on the flurry of probing activity. One, who requested that his name be withheld, claimed that i t s an idea who's time has come.' Another repeat-picker at-
tacked the questioners with shouts of 'How dare you ask me that? There's a conflict of in-terest here, because I've seen you doing private picking when you think no one is watching!'
\This prompted a reply from one of the Congress officers, who refused to be identified, that 'private picking has nothing to do with this. You leave my personal life outta this.' This slip of the tongue prompted a flurry of in-sults. Among them were heard 'Subhuman troll' and 'Morlock' interlaced with threats of dire retribution.
In an effort to retain controll, Congress President Dave Brat suggested that 'You whackoes find some way to put picking to constuct ive use . ' One Con-gressmember inquired as to how pickin's could be used as building materials, and was immediatly pelted with many small flying ob-
jects. Several members retreated to
a corner of the meeting room and' brainstormed, finally emerging, with a suggestion that Congress sponsor a 'Picking for Profit' day to supplement the Campaign for Hope (see related article).
There was general uproar a t this thought.
After Brat had regained order, a vote was called, and with the, gagging of all dissenters, the mo-tion was passed.
Congress went on to discuss its, s u b s e q u e n t o u t l a w i n g ( s e e related article). When adjourn-' ment was called for. Con-, gressman Peter Estell voted against the motion. He was im mediatly bound and gagged. The motion then passed.

Addicts Protest Against
Designer Drugs oy T.V.Beeker
The latest rage in California lately has been the production of so-called "des igner drugs." These artificial compounds are slight variations on the natural compounds that make up Heroin, Cocaine, and other choice drugs. They have the similar mind-altering effects, but there are not laws against them yet.
Die-hard users have some complaints, though. "I don't know why they had to go and change the formuls," lamented one coke a d d i c t . Another lamented, "Somehow this new stuff isn't the same...it's not quite the real thing." Drug manufacturers have tried to pro-mote the new drug formulas as improved versions, but there seems to be a bit of nostalgia among addicts. It is rumored that one Los Angeles supplier is going to offer two versions, both New Coke and Coke Classic.

by L. TeKirk In the midst of a search for
potential muck-raking mate r ia l , Anchor (liberal, sensationalist probably soon to be outlawed rag) co-editor Kirk Krae tzer un-covered a series of nude photos featuring the other Anchor co-editor Lou Valantasis .
In an effort to live up to his muck-raking credo, Krae tzer im-mediatly made the photographs available to the Ranchor.v They a re fa r to obscene to be published in a good family paper such as this, but we will talk about it to the hilt.
Valantasis , rumored to be somewhere in Argentina (see related art icle) declined to com-ment.
Anchor news editor Libby Bryson, upon viewing the pic-tures (over 300 in all, many in color) was reported to have said 'Scary! ' Typist Kitty Har te r , a friend of Valantasis 's , when told of the discovery, commented that 'Lou'd be good at that . '
The photos feature , among other things, lewd positions, rub-ber sheets, and large amounts of baby oil. 'A tanker t ruck full at least, ' es t imated an anipnymous bystander .
Kraetzer , unsure about what to do with the photographs, decided to help bolster the Anchor 's budget and has s ta r ted negotia-tions with an as yet unnamed publisher for print ing r ights . 'This oughtta h e l p - o f f s e t the perenially tight coffers of Stu-dent Congress, ' said a delighted K r a e t z e r a f t e r f i n i s h i n g a bargaining session in Chicago. 'They wanna do a cover f ea tu re on him. '
When informed of the news, Student Activities Director Sue Langejans snorted 'He ' s jus t try-ing to s teal my thunder . Won't work. '
Speculation as to whether or not Valantasis could be persuad-ed back to campus to do a strip-a-thon to help ra ise money for the Campaign for Hope has been heard. SAC is also repor ted to be interested in having the e r r a n t editor do a posing session for 4$.50aclick. '

1 h ave nothing really new to sya, just that I agree wiht what Jim McDonald said in his letter last week. I also think that Sally Marshall had some excellent points. I am no one of any par-ticular importance, but 1 thought it important that I go on the record on this issue. Surely the fact that I agree with these peo-ple will add a lot to others' understanding of this issue.
I must, however, declare my disgust at Theodore Smith com- . ments on the other issue on everyone's minds. He is clearly an unchristian homosexual and I expect-that he will burn in Hell for having an opinion that is not quoted from the Scripture. Everyone who agrees with him is

The B o a r d of T r u s t e e s ' Presidential Search Committee has barely begun to formulate criteria for the next president of Hope College, but two indfVidual^ h a v e a l r e a d y d e c l a r e d themselves candidates for the position.

Tanis is a member of the Holland City Council and recent-ly polled several votes in an un-
successful bid for the mayor-hood of Holland. <4I just had the first setback of my career , and I need an easy: way to get some momentum back into i t , " ex-plained Tanis.

Rocky, Round IV The Ultimate Sequel
by H u g h , T h e B e l o v e d Spear-Chucker
Well, Rocky Balboa is at it again in the fourth movie of the 1
series ( that 's what the little IV means on the end of the title). Yes, it once again s ta rs Sylvester Stallone as our hero. I ask this ques t ion 4 ;? w a s n ' t R a m b o enough? E mean for goodness sakes, the euys a hunk alright, but does he need all the atten-tion!
Really, I feet Mister Stallone is becoming more and more con-ceited by the day. Is it fair to him and his friends and loved ones? Why must l\e abide by the whims 2*®the public who scream for more Rock^ movies? When will they stop?fAt what point can you stop having sequels to the movies?
Yeah, back a couple o' cen-turies they used to have serials (cereals) on like Buck Rogers or the Perils of Pauline. But how many really good, well-made movies (not to say that Rocky or its offspring were good movies) can follow in ' the story. Lord knows we got the Star Wars Trilogy now. There were three or four (who" remembers ) Jaws movies, there were the Fr iday the 13th series and Halloween series. But how far can it go. Even Death Wish Three seemed to be pushing it.
One day will we have gone too far to turn back?Will all new movies be just another install-ment in an already epic length saga of celulose? How can we
3 this ridiculous trend? Sim-. le, don's go see this picture.
R e a l l y , do y o u r e s p e c t yourself? Do you believe in the American Dream? Can you honestly waste two hours seeing this drivel a fourth t ime? The
ovie is bad (probably). The ot is not much different than
before. Our hero meets the
toughest challenge of his life (again?), and we a re all suppos-ed to h alf believe there ' s a chance he won't win this fight. Come on! Get a grip on reality. If Rocky gets beat by the commie in this movie, then his red white and blue boxing trunks mean nothing at all.
The movie make r s a re not stupid. They made this film just to appeal to your renewed sense of nationalism. I t ' s good to be patriotic again, so you better go see Rocky beat the snot out of a neadrethal f rom Siberia. How transparent can you get? The makers of the movie theaters where they a re showing a re run by Americans, and Americans will go see it. In this age there is not a snowball 's chance in some girl 's pants (who's watching the movie) that Rocky will lose. Sure, he'll come close to gettin the crap kicked out of him, but don't worry, he'll win. In fact, I 'm so sure that Rocky will win (again) that 1 will give odds of 50 to one for anyone who cares to make a wager of sorts. That ' s right, one dollar could get you fif-ty. I 'm that sure. However, in the spirit of true sportsmanship, I can only take the first ten dollars worth of bets.
Okay all you American women hot for Stallone, you go see this movie (drag your ma te along with you and show him what a real man is) and if you like it, then why don't you just rent the first tme on VHS tape and watch it over and over again. It 's the same thing. I 'm not wasting any more of the Ranchor ' s space by talking on about this degrading film. Good night and have a plea-sant Thursday.
Committee, so I 'm going t otry for something with little less con-flict of interest ," he explained. "Besides, (the Inklings' assis-tant editor) Bob (Clifford) is on it ( the Presidential Search Com-mitted) and Dad (Carl VerBeek (no, not Karl Overbeek, tha t ; s a different ftoard member ) ) is on the Board (of Trustees) ( ! ) "
One thing that both Tanis and VerBeek h ave in comon is their p a s t c o n n e c t i o n s wi th thev
Anchor, a sensationalist, liberal rag published off-campus by a group 4 of subversive radical students who subscribe to the of-f i c i a l C u b a n n e w s p a p e r Gramma.
Tanis resigned from his posi-tion as advertising manager for the Anchor some weeks ago r
citing increasing demands on his time. It is now obvious that he was gearing up his campaign for the presidency. VerBeek resign-ed just last week from his job as photo editor, also citing time commitments . He obviously just figured out what Tanis was up to, and quit as soon as he could, in order to s take his claim on the presidency.
"Phil (Tanis) was just using it (the Anchor) as a springboard for s o m e t h i n g b i g g e r ( t h e p r e s i d e n c y ( o f H o p e (College))) ," snorted VerBeek
c o n t e m p t u o u s l y . T a n i s h a d earl ier commented that "Todd (VerBeek) has been planning to use it (the Anchor) as a launch pad for bigger things (the presidency (of Hope College (no kidding))) ." The Ranchor con-tacted former Anchor co-editor Greg Olgers, Tanis' former part-ner and VerBeek's former super-visor, for comment on these developments. " I can ' t talk right now," Olgers responded. " I ' m preparing my announcement of candidacy."
Bill Monk, the m a n who preceded Olgers, Tanis and VerBeek at the Anchor, was seen recently on campus. He was overheard muttering, "They owe it all to m e . " Monk is widely regarded as the person responsi-ble for making the Anchor wor-thy (or needy) of a desperate, all-out effort to save it. "You just wait until they make me presi-dent. They'll name a building a f te r m e , " Monk predicted. "After all, it was my idea to use real names in the Ranchor."

Muck-Raking Major Announced
by L. TeKirk The Registrar today announc-
ed that Hope College has a new major.
It is in muck-raking. Noting the recent upswing in
controversial grubbings, Jon Huisken started the ball rolling with a letter to the President regarding his intent. T i n e with me,' replied VanWylen. 'Just so long as you don't mention anything about my house.' (see related article)
Contacted for a response on the new major, Anchor (a sensa-tionalist liberal rag pubished off campus) co-editor Kirk Kraetzer (a self- proclaimed inverterate mud-muddler) claimed that it was (the best thing to happen to this school since women were allowed to come out after four in the afternoon.' The other Anchor (published off-campus by a
group of subversive radicles who subscribe to the official Cuban newspaper Gramma) co-editor Lou Valantasis, who was not ask-ed for any comment, made one anyway. 'I think it sucks. I have e n o u g h trouble contro l l ing Kraetzer anyway. Now you've given him a nice long leash to play on.' To this, Kraetzer asked his partner if that was reflecting back on any kind of kinky behavior Valantasis might be known to occasionally indulge in.
Hastening off to dig up com-promis ing facts , a c l ear ly delighted Kraetzer missed his co-editor's lament of 'See, I told you so.'
The departments controlling the major are primarily political science, allowing for the fact that politcians are generally regard-ed . a s the best muck-rakers
around. Associated with the Political Scientists will be the Departement of Communica-tions, because 'You can't rake if ya can't communicate, ' ac-cording to Huisken. The english department will also have some say in regulating the major re-quirements, because a good deal of grubbing goes on in print, and 'We want literate muck-rakers' reported an anonymous source from that department.
Muck-raking may also be taken as a minor related with any major field, as 'everyone does it at some time or another,' according to Kraetzer, who was found rummaging through old pictures of Valantasis he found in the back of a closet (about this, Valantasis was unavailable for comment. Reports have it that he has fled for Argentina with mistress and paraphenalia in
tow.). Also overjoyed over the new
major was columnist Mark Rebhan, who crowed 'I've got the bugger all sewn up. I should get it right off the bat!' Clearly en-thused about being the first declared muck-raking major, he rushed off to the Registrar's of-fice to fill out the proper forms (Rebhan was also recently nam-ed head of a Weird Hairdo Hunt (see related article)).
Ex-Anchor (a sensationalist liberal rag) co-editor Phil Tanis was ambivalent on the news, as he is busy preparing his cam-paign for the Presidency of Hope College (see related article), although he did take time off to c l a i m c r e d i t f o r s t a r t i n g Kraetzer down the muck-raking road.
On hearing this, Kraetz paused in his search throi" Valantasis's dresser drawers to say 'Yep. S'all Phil's fault. Blame him. Step back, please, you're in my light.' . Tanis, following his claim, received a death threat (not related to the one delivered to him earlier this month) from Valantasis.
The new major is all part of Hope's burgeoning campaign to be recognized as an international institution. An uninterested passer-by commented on 'Inter-national? Maybe. Institution? Oh, yeah. You could definately call Hope an institution. For what, I can't say. Definatly an institution, though.' He walked away, chucking to himself.
A p p l i c a t i o n f o r m s are available in the Registrar's 01 fice and the the political science departement.

Hope College has taken the lead in the Michigan Inter-
illegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) all-sports standings.
T h e a l l - s p o r t s a w a r d is presented to the MIAA school with the best cumulative per-formance in the league's 17 sports for men and women. Hope has had the award an un-precedented six years in-a-row.
The all-sports standings af ter the fall season has Hope in first place with 56 points, followed by Calvin with 50, Albion 45, Alma 37, Adrian 29, Kalamazoo 28 and Olivet 24.
Hope captured championships in men 's and women's cross country, finished third in football a n d go l f , w e r e f o u r t h in volleyball, and fifth in field hockey (see related fall sports review).
^luThe MIAA all-sports award was initiated in 1934-35. Hope has won it 14 t imes while Albion and Kalamazoo have each won it 13 times followed by Alma with 5, Calvin 2, and Adrian and Olivet none.
Sports Newhouse Named
All-Academic Hope senior Blaine Newhouse
has been voted to the Great Lakes All-Academic football team.
A defensive middle guard, the 6-2, 225-pound Newhouse was a three-year s tar ter for the Flying Dutchmen. He was a co-captain of this years 5-3-1 team.
Newhouse becomes eligible for Academic Ail-American con-sideration i a program co-spon-sored by the College Sports In-formation Directors of America and GTE.
To be eligible for consideration a student athlete must maintain at least a 3.2 cumulative grade point average on a 4.0 scale. A r e l i g i o n . m a j o r a t H o p e , Newhouse carr ies a 3.3 gpa.
This past season he led the Dut-chmen in total tackles with 59 of which 31 were unassisted. He sacked opposing quar terbacks 14 times and made eight other tackles for a loss.
Newhouse led a Hope defense that topped the MIAA in defense
this fall. The Dutchmen yielded only 188 yards a game total defense and jus t 53 y a r d s rushing. Both figures should rank among the nation's leaders in NCAA Division III when year-end figures are published.
Dur ing N e w h o u s e ' s t h r e e seasons as a s tar ter , Hope posted a 20-6-1 record, including 12-2-1 in the MIAA. During that t ime Hope allowed less than one touchdown per garpe rushing and opponents averaged just 69 yards a game rushing, an average of only 1.9 yards per running play.
Newhouse was voted to the all-MIAA team as a junior and to the second all-conference team his sophomore year . (The 1985 all-MIAA team will be announced later this week.)
Newhouse is s tudent -a th le tes schools to be named to the Great Lakes All-Academic football team. The others are Adrian linebacker Gary Guidos and Alma center Mark Baker.

Women Swimmers Lose One to Wheaton
by Betsy Andree
It was an exciting afternoon for the Hope College women swim-mers November 23rd as they dove into their '85-'86 swim season. Although Hope's team put up a good fight, Wheaton Col-lege came out on top, beating Hope by a score of 67-46. Hope's winning 200 medley relay team, finishing with a t ime of 1:59.33, consisted of Connie Kramer , Pam Sims, J a n e Houting, and Kaarli Bergman. In 50 freestyle, f reshman Michelle Baker clock-ed.an impressive 27.41 and finish-ed a strong third behind Adams (27.08) and Ryan (27.23) of Wheaton.-
Hope's Diane Vos and Karla Koops captured first and second respectively in one meter diving, with 217.95 points and 211.85 points. L. Marion of Wheaton won the three mete r diving with a total of 249.55; Vos and Koops placed second and third.
Jane Houting (1:05.80) and K r i s t e n Y e o m a n s (1:12.84) finished a strong second and third in the 100 yard butterfly behind Flickinger of Wheaton (103.39). Sophomore Jenni fer Straley swam to a hard finish as she placed first in 100 free with a t ime of 56.47. In the 500 free, Con-nie Kramer placed second with 5:31.45, and in the 100-yard breas t roke , sophomore P a m Sims placed second behind Woyke of Wheaton with a 1:15.34 clocking. The 400-free relay was the closest event of the meet, with Wheaton's team barely touching out Hope's at the finish. Karen Rubin, Kaarli Bergman, J a n e Houting, and Jenni fe r Straley combined efforts to go a 3:51.88, but Wheaton's relay team just edged Hope's with a time of 3:51.81. Overall, the Fly-ing Dutch gave a fine per-formance in this first non-league meet of the season.

Women's CC Finishes 12th in Nationals
Atlanta, Ga.—The Hope Col-lege women's cross country team finished 12th in a field of 12 t e a m s at the NCAA Division III national c ross coun t ry c h a m p i o n s h i p meet here Saturday.
Champions of the MIAA this fall, the Flying Dutch had qualified for nationals by winn-ing the Grea t Lakes Regional Meet.
Frankl in and Marshal l , P a . won the championship with 67 pionts, followed by St. Thomas , Minn. 233, Allegheny, P a . 237, O c c i d e n t a l , Ca . 238, M a r y Washington, Va. 266, and Hpe 288. ' -
"We were young and hur t ing ," o b s e r v e d Hope C o a c h Bill Vanderbilt , noting his t eam of runners included five f reshmen, a sophomore and a senior.
"At the begining of the season our d ream was to be competi t ive in the MIAA," he said. "We've had a great year as champions of the league and Grea t Lakes Region. One tends to look a t your last accomplishment , but there
were another 184 t e a m s that didn't make it to nat ionals ."
In jur ies spoiled Hope's op-portunity to be a contender b e f o r e S a t u r d a y ' s r a c e . Sophomore Karen P a n s e of Ostego w a s unab l e to run because of a s t ress f r ac tu re in a l e g a n d s o p h o m o r e D a n a Barsness of Simsbury, Conn, was on crutches the ent i re week before the race .
"We didn't decide on Dana ' s s ta tus until ten minutes before the r ace , " said Vanderbi l t . "She ran courageously."
The weather also took its toll as the race was run in 70 degree t empera tu res .
F r e s h m a n Tauna J e c m a n of Jenison was the leading Hope runner in 70th place at 20:43. The three mile r ace was won by Dor-cas Den Har tog of Middlebury, Vt . in 18:01.
Other Hpe f in i shers were Teresa Cheetham of Wappinga Falls, N.Y., 73rd (20:47); Sue DeSanctis of Califon, N.J . , 90th
(21:35); Dana Barsness , 94th (21:48); Mellissa Fleming of Allegan, 109th (23:00); A m y . Strieker of Arvada, Col., 110th (24:02); NS T a m m y Taylor of G r a n d R a p i d s , l l l t h (24:36).
In the men ' s race , junior Linsey Dood finished 36th out of 184 runners in 27:08. The five mile r ace was run by J a m e s W h i t e o f S o u t h e a s t Massachuset ts in 25:35.
Dood missed being an All-American (the first 25 finishers earn the honor) by 15 seconds. A year ago he finished 47th at the national meet .
"Linsey was in the top ten a f te r a mile, but there was a hill the runners had to go up twice and it took a toll on a lot of people", said Vanderbil t .
Luther College of Iowa won the men 's crown with 98 points. Grea t L a k e s champion Mt. Union, Ohio w a s 15th and regional runner-up Case-Western Reserve finished 18th.
Winter Sports Preview
By Lisa Jurries Rebuilding seens to be the
theme for Hope's sports t e a m s this year , and the men ' s basket-ball team is no exception. Star-ting out the season with only four returning p layers would be tough for any team but i t 's especially hard for this t e am cdnsidering that three of these men a re out with injuries. The inexperience of the rest of a t eam, which con-s i s t s of f o u r s e n i o r s , s ix sophomores, a n d two f reshmen, makes it hard to compensate for the loss of several really good players to injuries . But Coach VanWieren says they plan to play hard and do their best. So f a r the team has done fairly well, losing by only one point in both of their first two games against Aurora nd Aquinas and beating Wheaton by 23 points. Leading this y e a r ' s team are co-captains Scott Alex-ander and Steve Majer le , both of which had knee surgery r ight before the season. Also out for most of the g a m e because of in-juries a re Bill Vanderbuil t and Matt Strong. Both are strong, tall men, something really needed on
this y e a r ' s t e a m . The only ex-perienced p layer who w a s able tol s ta r t in the f i rs t few g a m e s was Matt Hester who did a grea t job at keeping the t eam together| without the capta ins .
Terr i McFar land , the nevi women 's basketbal l coach, is planning to "develop continuitj in the p r o g r a m " , which could be hard considering that she is the third Hope head coach in the lasi three years . She and her trif capta ins Karen Gingras , Pauhl Wyn R u t n a g l e , a n d BetM Beachum will be t rying to im prove on last yea r ' s 11-10, fiftH place season. So far , the seasor has gone well. The t e a m beai their f irst opponent Hiedelbem 85-56 on Sa turday in the Civkj Center. They pain on havii close fight with MIAA favorite! Alma along with. Albion and Calvin, all of which lost ke>f p layers to graduat ion last year Hope at least does not have thisl problem since all five s t a r t e r s oi last y e a r ' s t e am a r e returning! for another season.

This rev iewer usually does not like the typical built for marke t -love a s the subjec t re leases , but everyone has vices. This is ac-tually pre t ty good. Sure every song is about re lat ionships and connected themes , but the music is about as good as you can get from a popular ar t is t . The lyrics
a t t empt to be meaningful and seem to be coming s t ra ight f rom exeprience eventhough P a l m e r is credited to only half of the cuts.
Musically, the a lbum is varied, " H y e r a c t i v e " is going to be a
p r ime dance song. "Addicted to Love" will probably m a k e the top-40. There s eems to be a s train of Soul-music in basic lines here. Chaka Khan even ar rang-ed the vocals on one of the songs. P a l m e r ' s voice easily handles the different situation and it comes out quite well. It is a good package.

a s ta r too fas t . Some of his ma te r i a l is o.k., but too much of( it is self-indulgence. The themes he addresses a r e s trained in try-< ing to comminica te just what he has to say. If you read down the, credi ts (not too many people^ ever do this) you find that some "Supreme Being" is thanked uder the diection of Guru Sri Chinmoy for the inspiration for the a lbum. That one cedit should tell you that this album is going to be obscure and have double meanings.
Don't think that C.C. is going ot be hot any t ime soon. Most peo-ple won't even give this album a second listen, even 1 did not.

Ear l Klugh just released "Soda Fountain Shuff le" not too long ago and he usually maked the marke t wait for a good long t ime before his next release, so this album is a bit unusual in that respect . Another s t range thing about it is tha t most of the cuts are cover tunes, written by so-
meone else. What is not unusual is the typical mas te ry of hte gui tar and balanced production that the world has come to expect f rom E a r l Klugh.
This has to be the most roman-tic recording that I have heard in a long i tme. This is not saying it is s teamy like Olivia Newton-J o h n , b u t r o m a n t i c . As background music to set the mood for the evening, it cannot be beat . Even people who said that they never like jazz will have a ha rd t ime disliking this album, it is that good.
