Tuition Raised $100 for 1967- 68 by Board Vote The a n n o u n c e m e n t c a m e this

week af ter a vote on the issue b y the B o a r d of Trustees. The B o a r d voted b y mail , a n d acco rd ing to President Calv in A. VanderWerf , the final tally was " a l m o s t u n a n -i m o u s . "

The tuit ion at Hope College .vill be raised $ 1 0 0 for the next academic yea r , 1967-68, an-nounced Henry Steffens, Vice Pres-ident-Finance, in a letter to stu-dents ' pa ren t s . ( F o r complete text of the letter, p lease tu rn to p a g e 5 . )

P R E S I D E N T V A N D E R W E R F stated, "We took the step with great reluctance. We think that (his will be sufficient to meet the r ising costs with which we h a v e been f aced . "

.A y e a r a g o in October 196b, tne B o a r d voted not to increase ihe cost of tuit ion, s ta t ing that such a n increase " w o u l d subs t an -tially c h a n g e the cha rac t e r of the college as w e ' h a v e k ^ o w n it for a c e n t u r y . "

HOWEVER, A N U M B E R of fac tors necessitated the hike in tuit ion, a cco rd ing to President VanderWerf . Rising costs which are expected to result in a defi-cit of m o r e than $ 6 0 , 0 0 0 this y e a r will put even grea te r p ressure on the college's budget , projected to be a record h igh of $3 .8 million.

In add i t ion , b e c a u s e oT a n op-por tun i ty for m o r e students to app ly for and receive f inancia l aid f r o m v a r i o u s sources , the B o a r d decided that the tuition increase was needed at this time.

I lowever . President VanderWerf

s tated that when the college ra ises the cost of its educa t ion , "we f l in with real d a n g e r of d i s c o u r a g i n g the student w h o h a s been the back-b o n e of H o p e for m o r e than a cen tu ry . "

The B o a r d ' s decision to increase the tuition is the second increase in two years . Last yea r , a g a i n because of r i s ing costs, t h e c h a r g e s for b o a r d a n d r o o m were raised $100 . Thus , next y e a r the total cost for r o o m , b o a r d and tui-tion will be $ 1 , 9 1 0 ( inc lud ing the $10 Cul tu ra l Affairs fee.)

MORE F I N A N C I A L AID will b e . m a d e a v a i l a b l e to s tudents to meet the h igher cost of educa-tion, said William Hilmert , Di-rector of F inanc ia l Aid. This y e a r Hope students received m o r e t h a n $ 4 0 0 , 0 0 0 in v a r i o u s fo rms of f inancia l a id ; next y e a r Mr. Hil-

mert est imates that s tudents will receive m o r e t h a n $ 5 0 0 , 0 0 0 .

An add i t iona l $ 1 6 , 0 0 0 is expected t h r o u g h the Na t iona l Defense loans as well.

ROGER RIETBEHG, Director of Admiss ions , said af ter the an-nouncement that he expected no drop-off in the n u m b e r of appli-ca t ions and did not anticipate that a n y prospect ive student would be prevented f r o m coming to H o p e because of the hike.

Cuts Bog Down Chapel Board By George Arwady

" W a k e up, Doug, w a k e up. We've missed chape l a g a i n ! "

This p la in t ive cry is f requent ly hea rd t h r o u g h o u t the mens ' dor -mitories in the ear ly m o r n i n g hours . Over 2 0 0 men h a v e exceed-ed their q u o t a of three chapel cuts this y e a r and the habi t of cut t ing chapel seems to be ca tch ing on as the semester d r a w s to a close. Next semester s tudent absences m a y become the concern of Hope ' s new IBM computer .

T H E CHAPEL Review B o a r d which h a s the responsibi l i ty of enforc ing the chapel regu la t ions , has run into se r ious difficulty h a n d l i n g a " h u g e b a c k l o g of cases . " The s ix-member commit-tee was a p p o i n t e d late in the sem-ester, not ho ld ing its first meet ing until the middle of N o v e m b e r .

The students on the b o a r d a re do ing much of the busy work re-g a r d i n g chapel a t tendance , mail-ing out w a r n i n g s to s tudents who h a v e t aken their q u o t a , i n f o r m i n g s tudents of their responsibi l i ty to m a k e up two d a y s for every cut b e y o n d three a n d hea r ing cases

of ch ron i c offenders and a p p e a l s jf chapel b o a r d decisions.

T H E S I T U A T I O N HAS reach-ed the point at which the Chapel Boa rd h a s decided that its work canno t be effectively hand led under the present a r r a n g e m e n t s

Dr. David M a r k e r of the phy-sics depa r tmen t , a member of the chapel b o a r d , h a s worked with the new compute r a n d will seek to h a v e the chapel records kept on the compute r next semester. He noted that "if the college is go ing to suppor t a policy of com-p u l s o r y chapel , it will h a v e to i m p r o v e the m e a n s of en fo rc ing that c o m p u l s o r y aspect of the po l i cy . "

As of three weeks ago , the point up to which the cuts h a v e been tabu la ted , 247 s tudents had miss-ed f o u r o r m o r e times, acco rd ing to Chape l B o a r d president Pat Myers. Only 20 of the 2 4 7 cut-lers h a v e been girls. B o a r d mem-ber C a r o l B u l t m a n noted that " f ive or six s tudents h a v e never gone at a l l . "

T H E BOARD MEMBERS were distressed abou t the n u m b e r of

MORNING WORSHIPPERS—This group of hardy students wends its

way to chapel. Too many students are less courageous, however, and

the Ch9pel Board is snowed by the paper work involved in tracking

down those who cut over their quota.

s tudents who failed to ab ide by the b o a r d ' s d isc ip l inary action. M a n y s tudents who a re supposed to be go ing four t imes a week " jus t keep cu t t ing ," Miss Myers noted.

Many s tudents who a re cut t ing feel they will be able to get awa> with it because of the seeming inefficiency of the d isc ip l inary ac-t ions of the Chape l Boa rd . Stu-dents find that they a r e w a r n e d that they 've taken their third cut when they know that they h a v e a l r e a d y accumula ted four or five.

One m e m b e r of the Chapel B o a r d agreed that " s o far they 've been gett ing a w a y with cu t t ing" a n d Dr. M a r k e r declared that "we ' r e g o i n g to h a v e to get a little t o u g h e r . " The Chapel B o a r d voted u n a n i m o u s l y to " c a r r y ove r its activities a few weeks into the second semes te r . "

T H E CHAPEL BOARD h a s tried a new p r o g r a m this semes-ter dea l ing with f l a g r a n t v io la to rs of the chapel regu la t ions ( those with six o r m o r e cuts) . These peo-ple, who n u m b e r e d 4 5 severa l weeks ago , will meet in two one-h o u r sessions with C h a p l a i n Wil-l iam Hil legonds, who sugges ted the g roups .

Not a puni t ive measure , it is designed to give those s tudents with a ser ious object ion to chapel a chance to " r ea l ly e x p l a i n " their views. The C h a p l a i n said that he w a s go ing to "wai t until af ter semester b r e a k to meet in these g r o u p s . "

When chronic s tay- in-bedders were asked their r e a s o n s for not g o i n g to chapel , however , their stock answer was not theological , bu t merely p r a g m a t i c : " I ' v e got no th ing aga in s t God, it 's just too b l a m e d ea r ly in the m o r n i n g to get u p . "

SOME S T U D E N T S RAISED ser ious object ions, however . Stu-dents of other fai ths recognized the right of the college to require them to at tend, but " d i d n ' t par t i -cu la r ly like g o i n g . " One Jewish student " resen t s g o i n g , " c l a iming that he never realized that he h a d to go before c o m i n g to Hope.

Some s tudents ra ised object ions to the qua l i ty of chapel services. Senior F r a n k B a r r o n sa id it w a s " n o t wor th get t ing out of bed f o r .

Sunday Library Hours Viewed By Tom Hildebrandt

The Religious Life Commit tee took up the issues that h a d been tabled in its December meeting. The ques t ion of o p e n i n g the li-b r a r y on S u n d a y evenings and the request that meetings conduct-ed af ter the m a n n e r of the Fr iends be permit ted in the chape l base-ment m a d e up the a g e n d a of the J a n u a r y session.

AGAIN P R E S E N T a s a guest, C h a p l a i n William Hi l legonds ask-ed the commit tee to give a n opin-ion on Student Life Commit tee ' s mot ion that the l i b r a r y be open until 10 p .m. S u n d a y evenings , but to h a n d it over to the Ad-minis t ra t ive Counci l for the final decision. At this point c h a i r m a n Dr. Fl ton Bruins asked for the feelings of the commit tee on the issue.

Russ DeVette s tood aga in s t the p r o p o s a l because S u n d a y should be reserved for " w o r s h i p , p ra i se and t hanks to God, a n d should not be r ega rded as just ano ther d a y . "

R E B U T T I N G T H E a r g u m e n t that open ing the l i b r a r y would e n c o u r a g e s tudents to be off cam-pus m o r e often, J a m e s Tal l is sug-gested that such a S u n d a y ac-tivity would give them some th ing

to do o n weekends, thus induc ing them to remain . J e r r y P o o r t i n g a a d d e d that the use of S u n d a y c a n n o t be legis lated, and that stu-dents will s tudy on S u n d a y , re-g a r d l e s s of whether the l i b r a r y is open.

Mr. Tal l is then suggested a com-p r o m i s e time be determined, keep-ing the l i b r a r y open only until 8 p .m. This was greeted f avor -ab ly , but it was noted that sub-stitute activities must be found if the college c o m m u n i t y is to be d r a w n closer.

The commit tee decided that a b r o a d genera l s tatement of p r o p e r S u n d a y activities was needed. Dr. Rona ld Beery m o v e d that the issue be studied by the subcommi t t ee concerned with this and that the issue be decided at the next meeting. This was ap-p roved .

DR, J O H N BARLOW was asked to exp la in his request that F r i end ' s meet ings be permit ted in the chapel on S u n d a y evenings . He expla in-ed that there was n o intention of es tab l i sh ing a Fr iends Church , a n d that such meetings would merely offer the s tudents ano the r p r o c e d u r e of worsh ip .

Dr. Ba r low expla ined that F r iends a re centered a r o u n d the " i n n e r light of G o d " that s p e a k s to anyone . He noted that mos t of those present at a n y F r i ends meeting are m e m b e r s of other d e n o m i n a t i o n s , a n d that he ex-pects that this will be t rue if such meetings a re held at Hope.

T H E Q U E S T I O N of consisten-cy with p r e v i o u s policy t o w a r d other g r o u p s a s k i n g for use of facilities, such as the In te rvars i ty P'ellowship o r Y o u n g Life, w a s raised. It was noted that s tudent g r o u p s now co-o rd ina te their ac-tivities with the Student C h u r c h and m a d e their p r o g r a m p a r t of the rel igious life of the college.

The commit tee was a lso con-:erned that if this request were a p p r o v e d , a precedent whereby a n y other re l ig ious g r o u p might ask for use of facilities would be set. It was a g r e e d that regard less of the decision here, the right to deny any o ther such requests was still reserved if the g r o u p was n o t consistent with the bases of the college.

One m e m b e r noted that , while he had no d i sag reement with the theology of the Fr iends , H o p e is still a d e n o m i n a t i o n a l college, and g r a n t i n g pe rmi s s ion for these meetings would consti tute recog-nition of the F r i ends as a v iab le opt ion to the Reformed Church .

DR. BARLOW rei terated that the meetings were not intended to pull s tudents a w a y f r o m other church-es. " I n f ac t , " he sa id , "if the Fr iends a re successful , they will p r o b a b l y a t tend the services of the other churches m o r e . "

Here the commit tee fell that so m a n y ideas which must be t hough t t h r o u g h had been presented that it would be a d v i s a b l e to put off the final decis ion until the next meeting. At the request of i)r Bar low, the mot ion was a g a i n tabled.

A Mixed Reaction

New Registration Procedure State of the Union:

War, Spending, Taxes By Sherman Farber

The reg is t ra t ion process , al-w a y s unde r a t tack h a s been changed aga in . Rather t h a n have all s tudents pile into the gym-n a s i u m over a per iod of two days , the s tudents pile into the offices of the depa r tmen t c h a i r m e n over a per iod of, supposed ly , 10 days .

Dr. Paul Fr ied, c h a i r m a n of the his tory depa r tmen t , c o m m e n t e d that he believes that the new sys-tem isn't " rea l i s t i c . " " T h e pres-sure poin ts deve lop on the first day . Three h is tory sect ions a re a l r eady c losed . " Tha t w a s on the first d a y of reg is t ra t ion .

DR, WILLIAM MAT HIS, Dean of Academic Affairs , exp la ined the theory behind the new regis-t ra t ion p rocedure . "We a r e try-ing to avo id lines by s p r e a d i n g out the a c c u m u l a t o r y t ime to the entire a d v i s o r y per iod .

" T h i s new process is ex-per imental in that it is subject to changes . I am very interested in sugges t ions f rom the s tudents as to how the reg is t ra t ion pro-cedure m a y be m a d e bet ter ."

Dean Mathis a lso s ta ted that whether o r not you get the class-es you want still depends on the punctual i ty of the s tudents in get-ting to the dept. c h a i r m a n ear ly . This is true for j un io r s a n d sen-

iors; f r e shmen a n d s o p h o m o r e s begin get t ing their classes two d a y s later.

THIS E N A B L E S T H E upper-c lassmen to fulfill their g r a d u a -tion requ i rements before those sec-tions a re closed. As Dr. Fried sa id , "I a m all in f a v o r of the new regis t ra t ion p r o g r a m ; in this w a y seniors can get rid of their g y m requi rement in one d a y . "

The g rea t fear on the p a r t of the d e p a r t m e n t c h a i r m e n is that they will be s w a m p e d on the first few d a y s of the reg is t ra t ion per-iod. Dr. J o h n Hol lenbach , chair-m a n of the Knglish depa r tmen t believes that there will be a g rea t " p u s h " on the first d a y and per-haps , the second, but the " c r o w d s will ease off ." Dr. Hol lenbach expressed s y m p a t h y for those de-pa r tmen t c h a i r m e n who do not have a secre tary .

DONALD ( L E L L A N D , chair-m a n of the soc io logy depar tmen t , believes that the new system is better t h a n the p r e v i o u s one. " This way , you don ' t h a v e to sit in the g y m . "

Dr. H e n r y V o o g d , c h a i r m a n of the rel igion a n d Bible depa r tmen t , h a s found a m a r v e l o u s solut ion for himself. He h a s three s tudents g iv ing out the ca rds .

Soph Jim Meyer h Injured in N.Y. Auto Accident

J im Meyer, a s o p h o m o r e f rom Al tamont , V., was in jured in an a u t o m o b i l e accident d u r i n g the Chr i s tmas vaca t ion .

The accident occur red nea r Al-t amont on the even ing of Dec. 30. Meyer was a p a s s e n g e r in a Vo lkswagen a n d the a u t o was struck on his side by ano the r a u t o that failed to yield the right-of-way.

Meyer suffered a b r o k e n hip a n d is hospi ta l ized at St. ("lair

Hospi ta l in Schenec tady . He hopes to re turn h o m e s o o n but will have to r ema in there for three months .

The fu tu re ot the men ' s resi-dence at the W a r m Friend Hotel is being cons idered also. Since the college contracted for the ho-tel r o o m s on a one-semester bas is , it has the op t ion to renew or dis-cont inue the a r r a n g e m e n t s .

Presently, there a re 28-men liv-ing in the W a r m Fr iend Hotel who need a c c o m o d a t i o n s for the next semester. If there are vacan -cies in the c a m p u s do rmi to r i e s these men will be t rans fe r red to them.

T H E DECISION BY the Dean of Men conce rn ing requests for o f f -campus h o u s i n g rests u p o n the n u m b e r of vacanc ies remain-ing after those in the Warm Friend Hotel re turn to the c a m p u s hous-ing.

Accord ing to Dean De Young , " the college can not f inance the d o r m system unless the bui ld ings a re kept prac t ica l ly ful l . "

At this time, 26 men have m a d e f o r m a l app l i ca t ion to m o v e off c a m p u s and three h a v e been g r an t ed permiss ion .

Men who had p l a n n e d to move off c a m p u s without a n y p rob lems h a v e reacted adve r se ly to the ad-min i s t ra t ion ' s cons idera t ions . Some s tudents find it economica l ly unfeas ib le to live on c a m p u s while others desire m o r e quiet a n d in-dependence.

T H E A D M I N I S T R A T I O N , however , has p rev ious ly upheld its policy that "a l l non-commut-ing men s tudents a re expected to live in c a m p u s hous ing un i t s " unless u n d e r cond i t ions " a p p r o v -ed by the Dean of Men and the Pres ident . "

Review of the News Japan

Japanese correspondents in Peking said that increasingly bloody clashes accompany Mao's current purge in China.

The power struggle resulted when Mao divided the standing committee of the Politburo into front line and second line groups. In the front line wera the new leaders and Mao's present an-tagonists, Liu Shao-cni and Teng Hsiao-ping, while Mao retired to inactiviiy in the second line group. The first-liners immedi-ately consolidated power and "diverted to decentralism and formed many independent king-doms," Mao admitted.

After failing to regain control of the nation at the Central Com-mittee of the Communist Pariy of China, he made plans for the Red Guard purge.

In Japan, China experts con-tend that since nearly all party experts and officials support Liu

g and Teng, a civil war may easily become greater and bloodier

•x than the one that brought Mao £: to power. :|:j Red Guard signs include vehe-•j:. ment attacks on Premier Chou

En-lai. One side read "Burn £ Chou En-lai" and another said

"Bash in the head of anyone S who criticizes Chou."

The army seems unsafe also, though recently ordered to crush

K opposition to Mao. Criticism of Marshal Yeh Chien-ying for his

$ passivity lead many to expect a y. new army purge.

Great Britain Prime Minister Harold Wilson

announced the reshuffle of his nine-month old cabinet. Eight ministers, including one member of the Cabinet, stepped down.

Italy An agreement to co-operate on

a common Bible for Catholics and Protestants was announced here and immediately hailed as "one of the most important de-velopments in contemporary church history."

Washington Congressman Adam Clayton

Powell was denied his seat in the House of Representatives until the results of an investiga-tion into his activities has been completed.

Georgia Lester Madox was elected

governor by the legislature and was sworn in Wednesday.

New York Secretary General of the Unit-

ed Nations, U Thant made his strongest and most detailed as-sault on U.S. policy concerning Vietnam and all of Southeast Asia. First, he declared that Vietnam was certainly not of vital concern to the United States. Secondly, he did not ac-cept the contention that the Na-tional Liberation Front was a puppet of Hanoi but, rather, likened it to the liberation front in Algeria. Thirdly, he did not accept the "domino" thesis, i.e., that if South Vietnam goes, all of Asia will soon fall.

To Our Friends Dear Friends,

ON SUNDAY, DEC. 11, 1966, Dr. Ray-mond Beckering, President of the Gen-eral Synod of the Reformed Church, de-

livered a sermon to the Hope College Student Church. He issued a stirring plea for the Col-lege to understand and have patience with those parts of the Church which have been slow to keep apace with the times. He urged Hope students to become a vital force in the church of today and tomorrow.

As Hope students we wish to issue a plea similar to his own. We ask you, the members of the Church, to tolerate those facets of Christian education at Hope with which you cannot agree. And we go further and ask your support despite those things which you find objectionable.

Hope College's uniqueness as an educa-tional institution is largely due to the closc ties it has with the Reformed Church in Amer-ica. As students of Hope we deeply appreciate the RCA's contribution to our educational experience.

But at the present time Hope College stands at the crucial point in its relationship with the church. We value that tie, but the danger of misunderstanding between the col-lege and the church seems to increase as each confronts its own particular problems and each strikes out on its own pathway.

AS HOPE STUDENTS we do not want to lose the Church. Tha t means that we have a responsibility to understand the

Church anJ sympathize with the many prob-lems we ai face, tor we are members of the Church as well. But the task demands your sympathy and cooperation as well.

In our generation the yearning has ex-tended to our search for God. In our desire for the new, both in expression and in essence, many of us have tried to understand the posi-tion of those who say God is dead. This may seem heresy, but even so we feel compelled by our commitment tointellettual honesty to ex-plore fully the implication of such a position. If God is truly a vital and living force in our lives, we must not fear those who would chal-lenge our faith, but rather welcome it as a testing. T h e alternative is completely ignoring a position which we know threatens our own and the haunting fear that it may be in some measure correct.

We ask you to understand that in giving a hearing to those whose views challenge the orthodox, we ultimately seek a deeper, firmer

and more fearless commitment to the Christ-ian faith.

We even ask that you attempt to undei stand those among us who, after thoroughly searching their consciences, found that to live Jesus Christ meant to take u p an anti-war poster and break into a tulip time parade Perhaps, in later years of greater wisdom and insight they shall regret that act. But even so., please believe that those who marched did so in the fervent hope that swords could be beat en into plowshares, and that their act could somehow hasten the day when that will he possible.

We ask your commitment not only to tolerate Hope College, but to recommit your selves to supporting it and to the fundament" a! concept ot Christian education.

THIS COMMITMENT MUST BE TO both halves of the arrangement; "Christian" and "education." T o sup

port education means to sanction and encour age the full exploration of every position, unafraid of where such pursuit of t ruth ma\ lead. The result of such education is trul) liberat'ng—it liberates one from ignorance superstition and prejudice.

But supporting Hope also means empha sizing the "Christian" aspect of education. The FIopc College faculty is the key to this all-important aspect of our education. Theii dedication to truth, their self lessness, and their commitment to the Christian faith serve as an example to us and enable them to guide us to a Christian commitment of our own. Ir is true that many of them may not share all t^e same doctrinal tenets which you, as Church members, hold. But we can testify to their supreme commitment. T o us, and wc hope to you, this fact is the key to their im pact on us, and their specific doctrinal stance fades into the bnckground in view of this meaningful commitment.

T h e fervor and enthusiasm of youth lead us to do many things which we know you do not approve. No doubt we too shall some time criticize those of the generation aftei ours when what seems wisdom to them is fool-ishness to us. But please believe that the youth ot today respond to a glimpse ot the Divine, although it is a partial, groping, in-adequate vision. We know that our vision cannot be wholly right—yet we know also thru it cannot be wholly wrong. And we know that in any age, the greatest sin against God and man is to abandon the search for that vision of the Almighty.

Acknowledging Ends

TRADITIONS ARE STRANGE. PEOPLE seldom know how they begin, and when

they die, they often disappear with as

little fanfare as when they began. It seems

even more strange to us to propose that a tra-dition be started.

However, as the last of this semester slips away through our fingers, we recalled a tradi-tion which exists on other campuses. T h e tradition acknowledges the significance of the end of things, namely the end of classes. T h e tradition is acknowledged by both professors and students, and the time of acknowleelge-ment is the last class session.

At this last class session, the professor acknowledges that this is the last time he will be able to speak to this group of students, the last time to communicate whatever he believes to be of value. Often he attempts to summar-ize the course, to tie together the loose strings which he unloosed throughout the semester.

Sometimes he delivers an apologetica for his value judgment on the material presented. The form of the lecture at times becomes special—verse or a drama.

Students in turn acknowledge that this is the last time that they will sit more or less en masse before this man to pick up whatever pearls he may have to cast. At the conclusion of this last lecture if they have appreciated the course and that particular lecture, they applaud.

The applause, we suppose, can mean any number of things, but in its simplest way stu-dents would be saying thank you to the teach-er who had passed on to them something of the knowledge which he holds dear. T h e ap-plause is not mandatory and must on^y come forth from students who want to applaud. It is strange to suggest that a tradition be begun, but one thing we believe: T h e acknowledge-ment of the significance of the end, both by professors and by students, is important.

'Oxbridge:' Life at Two British Universities Edi to r ' s note: Facul ty F o c u s

this week is au thored by Dr. Ro-bert Peters of the his tory depar t -ment . Dr. Peters h a s e a r n e d seven degrees f r o m British universi t ies , inc lud ing his d o c t o r a t e f r o m Man-chester last vear .

Consequent ly , I shal l at tempt to describe s o m e aspects of the life and t each ing m e t h o d s of Oxford a n d C a m -br idge ( " O x b r i d g e " ) a n d let who will d r a w c o m p a r i s o n s . F o r those Mope s tudents visi t ing Oxford this s u m m e r this m a y p e r h a p s be a n in t roduct ion to what is b o u n d to seem a ve ry s t r a n g e place to you .

L E T MP] B E G I N with the ex-perience of one of my present Hope students . He wrote to the Oxford Universi ty Registry to in-qu i r e how he should set a b o u t a p p l y i n g for a d m i s s i o n to the univers i tv " to read for a d e g r e e . "

( N o t to "become a s tuden t , ' please! T h a t term has a specific

c o n n o t a t i o n in Oxford a n d is N O T applied to u n d e r g r a d u a t e s . )

He w a s told to write to the Senior Tu to r of the college of his first choice, g iv ing detai ls of his p r e v i o u s educa t iona l back-g r o u n d to learn whether the col-lege wou ld accept him. He w a s a l so to f ind out whether the degree he will ob t a in f r o m H o n e will be a sufficient academic r equ i remen t to q u a l i f y him for ma t r i cu la t ion , i.e. en t r ance to the univers i ty .

V O U W I L L N O T H E that he c a n n o t a p p r o a c h the univers i ty

direct, but on iy t h r o u g h a college. You will a lso notice that the uni-versi ty canno t direct a college to accept him. Tha t is because the colleges which receive u n d e r g r a d -uates ( 2 8 at Oxford ; 2 5 at Cam-br idge , i n c l u d i n g w o m e n s ' colleges) are independent co rpor -a t ions . The independence of the colleges is a s t o u t l y - d e f e n d e d r ight , and woe betide the univer-sity if it a t tempts to enc roach on it.

Don ' t run a w a y with the idea that colleges a r e just hal ls of resi-

dence (or , worse still, " d o r m s , " as one Amer ican to w h o m 1 once tried to " e x p l a i n " Oxford though t ! ) The colleges, together with the depar tments , m u s e u m s , l a b o r a t o r i e s , and the univers i ty l i b r a r y (the f a m o u s Bodle ian , at O x f o r d ) consti tute " the universi-tv . "

You will look a lmos t in va in , especially in Oxford , for a n y t h i n g that l ooks remotely like a univer-sity c a m p u s ; on the other h a n d , you will see the colleges every-where you look within the ancient city precincts.

Re verses A.W .S. Decision

Court Upholds Co-ed's Appeal A recent decision of the Student

Cour t reversed a decision of pun-ishment pas sed by Dean of Women Isla Van F e n e n a a m a n d the Assn. of Women Students ' Judicia l Boa rd .

In a mix up of sign out rules, S h a r o n Dyks t ra was c a u g h t in wha t Denny F a r m e r , Student Cour t justice, called a " jud ic i a l m e s s . " Miss Dyks t ra , h a v i n g re-ceived a verba l but not a written inv i ta t ion f rom her b o y f r i e n d ' s mo the r , s igned out for h o m e but spent the v a c a t i o n with her f r i end ' s fami ly .

U P O N T H E O F F E N D E R S a p p r e h e n s i o n , the A.W.S. h a n d -book rule, which gives three de-merits to a n y o n e fa i l ing to follow fhp p r o p e r s ign out p r o c e d u r e , was ove r looked and Miss Dyk-s t ra w a s given a two-night week-end c a m p u s . A.W.S. sa id that this offense w a s b e y o n d the h a n d b o o k rule.

Seeing that she w a s not the first H o p e w o m a n to b r e a k tha t rule in this m a n n e r , the Women Students ' Judicial B o a r d success-fully a sked that the p u n i s h m e n t be s l ight ly eased to a one night and two-hour c a m p u s .

S h a r o n D y k s t r a vs. A.W.S. The case to be decided is an

appea l f rom the Jud i c i a ry Coun-cil of the Associat ion of W o m a n Students. The defense a d m i t s that the p a r t i c u l a r v iola t ion with which she is c h a r g e d is c lear ly outl ined

in the A.W.S. H a n d b o o k (pp . 13, 18) but her content ion is that the pena l ty handed d o w n by the A.W.S. Council is inconsistent with the "Penal t ies for V i o l a t o r s " out-lined in the H a n d b o o k (pp. 21 2 2 ) .

T H E S I T U A T I O N in ques t ion concerns the " s i g n - o u t " p r o c e d u r e for a n overn ight off c a m p u s . The Cour t a s s u m e s that this appl ies a l so in this case since there was no object ion on the p a r t of the J u d i c i a r y Council . The pa r t i cu l a r segment of p rocedure , a r o u n d which the case centers, is the fail-ure of the defendant to p r o c u r e a letter of inv i ta t ion f r o m the host-ess to whose h o m e she was invited for the T h a n k s g i v i n g vaca t ion .

The defense m a i n t a i n s that her p a r e n t s were in formed , a n d that she merely forgo t the correct pro-cedure and proceeded to s ign out for home , fully a w a r e o f her viola-tion. By chance, her offense was discovered and her case w a s re-viewed by the Jud i c i a ry Council of the A.W.S. without the defendant be ing represented.

In light of the de fendan t ' s pro-test that she was not a l lowed to represent her side, the Council reviewed it a g a i n and c a m e to the s a m e conclus ions . But for rea-sons that a re b e y o n d this court , the Jud i c i a ry Council lessened the pena l ty f r o m a "weekend-cam-p u s " to " a c a m p u s for one night and r o o m for the other night of

the same weekend . " We c a n n o t c o n d o n e this inconsistency of judi-c ia ry action, but we choose not to rule on it.

T H E D E F E N S E M A I N T A I N S

that the v iola t ion with which she is c h a r g e d is covered in the A.W.S. H a n d b o o k under rule 12 o f ' P e n -alties for Vio la t ions , " which s tates " F a i l u r e to follow all necessary p rocedures for an official permis-s ion for an overn igh t off c a m p u s . . . . 3 demer i t s . " The J u d i c i a r y Council holds that this gu ide is not appl icable , and that they h a v e a l w a y s h a c a n d still m a i n t a i n the r ight to determine a rb i t r a r i l y when th'« rul^ shall a p p l y a n d when it shall not.

As the Court sees it, if a n y uni-formi ty of penal ty is to be achieved, there must be ' s t r i c t e r guildelines t h a n these. The on ly ques t ion r ema in ing for the cour t is whether this pa r t i cu la r offense is a v iola t ion of " p r o c e d u r e " as g o v e r n e d by rule 12. The defen-d a n t failed to at tain the p r o p e r invi ta t ion f rom her hostess in line with her " s t a n d i n g p e r m i s s i o n " (p. 13).

L H E C O U R T S E E S no alter-nat ive but to call this an infrac-tion of p rocedure , a n d thus de-cide that rule 12 shal l app ly . The a p p e a l is upheld, and the r u l i n g of the Jud i c i a ry Council of the Associat ion of W o m a n Students is overruled a c c o r d i n g to the de-cision of this Court .

o r one b r a n c h of l ea rn ing , in-deed, no other qua l i f ica t ion ever q u i t e compensa t e s for a class lower in rank t h a n a " F i r s t " in the final h o n o u r s e x a m i n a t i o n .

Even more coveted is a "S ta r -red F i r s t , " at C a m b r i d g e , o r a " S t a n d i n g F i r s t , " at Oxford , when the recipient is s u m m o n e d before the examiner s w h o s tand to sa lu t e him as he enters. To achieve this, however , one mus t be considered to h a v e m a d e an o r ig ina l con-t r ibut ion to knowledge in one 's e x a m i n a t i o n p a p e r s ; and , believe it or not , there that does some-times happen .

Several Fellows, the y o u n g e r ones especially, will h a v e Ph.D's, t hough this is in no sense re-g a r d e d as a " t e r m i n a l " academic achievement . The d o n ' s life is dedi-cated to scho la r sh ip , thus he needs no p r o d d i n g o r inducement. In-deed, s o m e of the older d o n s are f r a n k l y suspicious of Ph.D. de-grees. Such a one was the don who directed the thesis on which 1 was given m y first research degree and who r ega rded the D.Phil. ( Oxford ' s a b b r e v i a t i o n for Ph.D.) a s " a degree invented for Amer i cans who h a v e to g o h o m e with s o m e sort of d o c t o r a t e . "

I S P O K E E A R L I E R of " r e a d -i n g " for a degree. An " O x b r i d g e " u n d e r g r a d u a t e does just that. Lec-tures a r e not c o m p u l s o r y ; in a n y case, no attempt is m a d e to cover a course . Dons lecture on p a r t s of the research on which they are cur ren t ly engaged ( a n d their lec-tures ga in in interest and qua l i ty in consequence) .

The basic t each ing is d o n e by m e a n s of weeklv " t u t o r i a l " ( " s u p e r v i s i o n , " by the C a m )

when each u n d e r g r a d u a t e has the benefit of a dc/n's g u i d a n c e to him-self for abou t a n h o u r . He will be pas sed f r o m don to d o n each term by his Director of Studies, and the don to w h o m he goes will p repare him for that p a p e r in the final e x a m i n a t i o n in which he himself is a specialist

D u r i n g uiy own all-too-bnef time as a don , a s I now look back , I p r epa red people for the 16th century His tory paper , and I a l so took people for pa r t of the Moral is ts Paper in the English Tr ipos , plus a few research students. I a m q u i t e c o n v i n c e d that no other type of teaching can begin to c o m p a r e with the tutorial method

T H E U N D E R G R A D U A T E is given an essay subject each week, together with a b i b l i o g r a p h y of abou t 20-30 books . W h e n h e b r ings the essay to his tutorial the next week, ( a n d by the way, essays shor ter in l e n g t h t h a n abou t 30 pages are f rowned upon - t h o u g h " m e a t " is m o r e impor-tant t han length) the essay is read, criticised in detail by the don, p rob lems a re discussed and fur-ther r ead ing to i l luminate them is adv ised . Final ly , poss ibly for-tified with a g lass of sher ry , the u n d e r g r a d u a t e is sent a w a y to pre-p a r e his essay for the following week.

So the pa t te rn goes on, and has done so for a great m a n y years . Of course , one goes to lectures, but if one doesn ' t find them help-ful to one 's studies, there is no need to continue. 1 mus tn ' t go on, my space is used. It's a splendid life! En joy it if you get the oppor-tunity!

An Open Letter To All Hope College Students:

Some announcements are never pleasant. Informing you of an increase in tuition begin-ning with the school year 1967-68 is one of this kind. Our com-mitment as a college to sustain an expanded and competent fa-culty and to enlarge the educa-tional opportunities for every student, together with rising costs, make the tuition increase necessary. The Board of Trus-tees has, therefore, approved an annual $100 tuition increase to begin in September of 1967.

IN MAKING THIS important decision known to you well in advance of the time the new rate becomes effective, I want also to inform you that it was an action taken only a f te r the ad-ministration officers and the trustees had carefully studied and explored the problem. Our conviction is that Hope College must increase its operating funds substantially if it is to safeguard its present educational s tandards and continue to improve its of-ferings.

In spite of this needed tuition increase, we are proud of our record. A comparison of tuition rates at the twelve colleges in the Great Lakes Colleges Asso-ciation, a group of distinguished midwestern colleges with whom

we are academically associated, shows our tuition ra te to be the lowest. The cost of an education at Hope College is still reason-ably priced.

The Board of Trustees of Hope College has reaff i rmed its com-mitment to maintain the schol-arship-grant-work opportunity program. This p rogram will en-able qualified and deserving needy students to receive a good education at Hope College. Ac-cordingly, the Board approved a substantial increase in aid to students eligible for such assist-ance. The trustees will also con-tinue to explore and expand non-tuition income sources for the maintenance and operation of the college's educational program. We trust that no student will be denied the excellent education Hope affords because of lack of funds.

I ALSO WISH TO assure you that we will continue to concern ourselves with careful manage-ment of all of our resources. Through the best possible ways, we intend to keep educational opportunities at Hope College on a par with the very best avail-able anywhere.

Sincerely, Henry Steffens Treasurer and Vice President for Finance

Senate Asks for anchor Study By T o m Hi ldebrand t

In its meeting M o n d a y , the Stu-dent Senate took action on a p rob-lem with which it and other cam-pus o r g a n i z a t i o n s have been con-cerned recently. This action took the fo rm of a mot ion recommend-ing that the C o m m u n i c a t i o n s B o a r d begin a n e x a m i n a t i o n of ques t ions that h a v e been raised abou t the ancho r .

The mot ion , presented by Lynn Koop , asked the b o a r d to look into the fo l lowing quest ions; "Wha t a re the cha rges that h a v e been m a d e r e g a r d i n g the respon-sibility, accuracy and objectivity of the a n c h o r ? Are these justi-fied?"

T U R N I N G TO T H E relat ion ship between the admin i s t r a t i on and the newspaper , the mot ion asks , "Wha t is the role of the C o m m u n i c a t i o n s Boa rd in sup-po r t i ng and a d v i s i n g the a n c h o r and crea t ing the p rope r context in which s tudent j o u r n a l i s m should func t ion? What is the re-la t ionship between the Adminis-t ra t ion a n d the a n c h o r , especially the facul ty a d v i s o r ? What is the policy of the college toward the a n c h o r ? "

Sena to r Glenn Pontier asked

that the m o t i o n be amended to include a genera l s tatement of edi torial policy. After an a n c h o r staff m e m b e r noted that this could only be a s ta tement of pol icy for the c o m i n g semester, the a m e n d m e n t a n d the mot ion were a p p r o v e d .

Shirley Lawrence reported that p l ans for a s p r i n g trip to Brew-ton, A l a b a m a have been final-ized. There a r e a l so p l a n s be ing m a d e to h a v e some sort of tr ip to work in the inner cities of New York City and Chicago.

S E N A T O R DON F A R M E R enumera t ed the sugges t ions m a d e by the Regis t ra t ion Commit tee to al leviate long lines at regis t ra t ion and fee p a y m e n t . A m o n g them were m o r e times a n d places to p a y fees, with fewer people sched-uled to p a y at one time.

The commit tee a lso recommend-ed that reg is t ra t ion and fee pay -ment t ake place on the s a m e d a y , and that no other events be sched-uled at this time. Other sugges-tions were to h a v e m o r e help a n d counse l lors at regis trat ion, and ample not i f icat ion of which classes a r e closed.

The Fifth Column

It's All White, Jack By G o r d y K o r s t a n g e

At the strike of d a r k n e s s thc c a m p u s a d j o u r n s , each m e m b e r of the v a r i o u s clans h u r r y i n g off to the s u n d r y tasks of the night. Dur ing the hou r s of light it had been a bust l ing, o rgan ized c a m p , classes meeting, f r iends g a t h e r i n g in clusters of conversa t ion . Van Raalte seemed to be s a g g i n g f rom the weight of the knowledge be ing dispensed to number less minds , and the on ly reason it did not fall a p p e a r e d to be the s t rength of the s m o k e dr i f t ing u p w a r d f rom lobby cigarettes.

NOW, W H E N T H E L A S T g r o u p h a s left the d in ing hall , the c a m p u s slowly settles into an obscure m a p of fa l l ing snow cross-ed h a p h a z a r d l y by s idewalks and j o t t e d with electric l ights, d a r k -ness-enlarged bui ld ings , a n d oc-cas iona l m o v i n g f igures c loaked in silent white.

The l i b r a r y p i l g r i m a g e begins as s tudents wend their way to that mos t p rominen t center, there to find fr iends, lovers , o r the sol-i tary seclusion of books . It is here that the flourscent day l igh t en-ables the activities of the after-n o o n to be resumed. Tables be-come min ia t a re c l a s s r o o m s and coffee kletzes as s tudents happ i ly attempt to ove rcome their inten-tions of s tudying.

T H E C O M P A R A T I V E quiet of dormi to r i e s du r ing the d a y is sus-pended now that the i nhab i t an t s have taken refuge f r o m the snow. They meet in the v a r i o u s r o o m s to discuss the events of the day , the p romises of t o m o r r o w , and whether indeed the snow will ever stop.

In the lounges the favor i t e spor t begins as y o u n g men wait im-pat ient ly to sweep their ladies into

the chin of the j o u r n e y to count-less ice-cream cones a n d coffee cups. T h e first ru sh of couples d i s a p p e a r into the snow, a n d their talk e v a p o r a t e s into the all-con-s u m i n g whiteness.

The c a m p u s is deserted now. Gone a r e the t h r o n g s of the d a y , to be replaced by people headed in their own d i r ec t ion -peop le one doesn ' t notice in the light. The j an i to r m a k i n g his night ly r o u n d s and sweeping a w a y the cast-off t hough t s which lie forgot ten on c l a s s r o o m floors .

T H E G I R L in levis who wa lks to the Smoker , there to curl up on a couch amid the sot-weed litter a n d wait for three l ike-mind-ed s tudents to commence a n o t h e r endless round of br idge. The two-some s t rol l ing a r m - i n - a r m , com-ment ing slyly on the feel of the snow as it falls on their out-stretched tongues a n d coa t s their bodies with an identical l ayer of white.

At the witching hour , coaches

outs ide the d o r m s tu rn into p u m p -kins, and the girls une r r ing ly seek the so l i ta ry conf inement of their home-sweet-homes. F o r s o m e the universa l g a m e of " s h o u l d I kiss her on the first d a t e " begins, a n d the two s tand u n c o m f o r t a b l y in the snow until the light goes out with the g a m e still unreso lved .

IT IS NOW truly night, a n d the stillness b r o k e n only by the voices of wande re r s , some in search of the Hi tching Post for a bite of grease. The j a n i t o r s retire after lock ing the d o o r s , l eav ing the bu i ld ings to silently reverbera te with one -hundred yea r s of s o u n d a n d fury signi-fy ing nothing. One-by-one the lights a re muffled ac ross c a m p u s as if to g u a r d aga in s t the night ly menace of the b o m b a s t i c snow.

And as the last l ight is exting-uished in a term p a p e r window the snow s tops fal l ing, content with its job and w a r y of was t ing its power on deserted da rknes s .

Tet, the most impor t an t a n d widely obse rved of all Viet-n a m e s e ho l idays , will occur in a b o u t two weeks' time.

To the Vietnamese, Tet is the most impor t an t , mos t so lemn and most festive h o l i d a y of the year . It is a t ime for be ing ve ry careful abou t conduct a n d att i tude, a time for festive ce lebra t ion , fo r p a y i n g h o m a g e to ances to r s , for visi t ing fami ly a n d f r iends a n d for ob-se rv ing cer ta in t r ad i t i ona l t aboos .

To develop a real unde r s t and -ing of the cus toms of Tet, one mus t u n d e r s t a n d the spir i t -world legends which g a v e rise to m a n y of these cus toms .

A C C O R D I N G TO the legends, before Tet beg ins the good spir-its depar t to repor t to the Heaven-ly Kmperor of J a d e a n d give him a n account of the past year . 'I his, of course , m e a n s that all the good spirits a rc absent f rom their jobs as protectors of the fami ly .

At tne s a m e time, the evil spir-its, who have been l iving in Hell t h r o u g h o u t the yea r , a r e released. This a b n o r m a l s i tua t ion lasts un-til the seventh d a y of the new year .

M a n y of the cus toms of Tet a r i se f rom the necessity of find-ing s o m e m e a n s of protect ion f rom

spiri ts while the g o o d spirits a re m a k i n g their a n n u a l report .

T E T ALSO I N V O L V E S m a n y supers t i t ions a n d t aboos . F o r in-s tance, one s h o u l d clean the house t h o r o u g h l y be fore Tet because it shou ld not be c leaned d u r i n g Tet lest one be s tr icken with pover ty .

Legend tells of a merchan t who met a beaut i ful girl and m a d e her his concubine . F r o m the t ime he met her his fo r tune b e g a n to grow. Once, on the first d a y of Tet, the girl d r o p p e d one of the m e r c h a n t ' s cu r ios and b r o k e it. The merchan t scolded and beat her and she r a n a w a y and hid in a pile of refuse. He ordered his men to th row the dirt into the y a r d and the girl d i s a p p e a r -ed. F r o m that t ime on, he b e g a n los ing his for tune.

Tha t is the or ig in of the be-lief that one shou ld not sweep dirt out of the house on the first d a y of Tet, bu t one should sweep it into a corner a n d throw it out on the third or four th day . This , of course , a l so gives the spirit of the b r o o m a three-day ho l iday .

T H E C E L E B R A T I O N S of Tet begin a couple of d a y s before the ac tua l new y e a r per iod. In peace-ful times the s o u n d of f i recrackers would echo t h r o u g h the streets, but f i recrackers a re b a n n e d now, so g o n g s a n d s y m b o l s arc used to f r ighten a w a y evil spirits.

As the d a y s go on, the acti-vities increase in a m o u n t and in-tensity t h r o u g h o u t the count ry-side. Markets become even m o r e crowded a n d bo i s t e rous t h a n they usua l ly a rea . Pretty flower girls a p p e a r with their bouque t s a n d pots of real a n d artificial p lum

b lo s soms , c h r y s a n t h e m u m s , or-chids a n d na rc i s sus bulbs .

Tens ion , excitement and noise g r o w m o r e a n d more intense, un-til, on the eve of Tet, it seems that the whole coun t rys ide will burst .

T H E N , A L M O S T AS sudden ly as it b e g a n , the merr iment s tops . Shops close and life comes to a silent halt . Tet is a b o u t to begin. It is i m p o r t a n t for a fami ly to be at h o m e at the a l t a r of its an-cestors be fo re the Tet per iod it-self ac tua l ly s tar ts .

The c e r e m o n y begins with the t rans i t ion f r o m one yea r to the other . The fami ly , in an ancient r i tual , b ids farewell to the genie of the h e a r t h who has been g u a r d -ing its h o m e for the past yea r a n d t h a n k s him for the j ob he h a s done.

As in Amer ica du r ing hol idays , in Vie tnam the family dresses up in new c lo th ing and visits f r iends a n d relat ives who h a v e invited them. Of p r i m e impor tance is the identitv of the fir«t visi tor on Tet. i he at t i tude a n d d e m e a n o r ot the

first pe r son to cross the h o m e ' s th reshold on the m o r n i n g of Tet will de te rmine the course of the whole fo l lowing year .

While Tet technically lasts for seven d a y s , the first three d a y s are the m a i n d a y s of celebrat ion. After that , th ings g r a d u a l l y go back to n o r m a l a g a i n . The new year h a s begun , (hopefu l ly ) with all the b a l a n c e s settled and under good ausp ices and omens .

Rabbit t F1

This last week has commenced Hope ' s semester ly ritual of c lass selection and regis t ra t ion . Despite regrets and rese rva t ions on the p a r t of the s tudents , regis t ra t ion r e m a i n s one of those necessary evils.

At this time, n a t u r a l l y , the fac-ulty, the a d m i n i s t r a t i o n and the s tudents a re exposed to each other m o r e than a n y other time of t h e semester. The somet imes endless s t r ing of red t ape can entangle us until the f r eedom of o u r m i n d s regresses into obscur i ty .

IN T H I S F R A M E W O R K 1 will at tempt to verbal ize some of the con t rad ic t ions of the s ta tements m a d e by Dean of Academic Af-fa i rs Will iam S. Mathis in the a n c h o r interview last week.

A few d a y s a g o I at tempted to b r ing s o m e of my own academic-af fa i r s into the Dean 's office. The obs tac le that his secretary placed in my p a t h resembled the Berlin Wall which she policed quite suc-cessfully.

Unless his secretary has taken u p o n herself the c h a r g e of mo the r protector , Dean Mathis is not at-tempt ing to practice his preach-ings. The a fo rement ioned article stated that the a p p a r e n t g a p be-tween the s tudent a n d the admin -is t ra t ion is caused by Hope ' s size.

T H E D E A N was quoted as say-ing that the final deve lopment of a sys tem, a routine, would hope-fully al leviate the lack of pe r sona l contact .

How idealogical! The 10-year mas te r p l a n has ant ic ipated an increase of 7 0 0 in enrol lment , m a k i n g a total of 2 , 5 0 0 students . Will the " s y s t e m " or " r o u t i n e " be sufficient to sat isfy those 7 0 0 add i t iona l s tudents?

Fven if there is hidden vir tue in o u r sacrif ice of pe r sona l con-tact with the admin i s t r a t ion at this time, wha t c o m p e n s a t i o n is the s tudent receiving because of this d i s a d v a n t a g e ?

IT'S A NORTH WIND THAT BLOWS NO GOOD C r u s h e d b e t w e e n t h e t w i n mi l l s tones of J a n u a r y

wea ther and final exams, you a re saved f r o m total des-pai r , poor devils, only by t h e knowledge t h a t win te r vaca-tion will soon be here .

Where will you go th is yea r? Will it be Flor ida again, or a re you t i red of j a i l s? Then how about Pue r to Rico?

A most excellent notion, say I. A balmy and bounteous island with long whi te beaches and blue, blue skies and green, heal ing seas. And, most pleasant of all, the warm and gracious people of Pue r to Rico! You don' t even have to know Spanish to communicate wi th th is f r iendly folk. J u s t learn th ree simple phrases and you'll get along splendidly: "Buenos dlas" which means "Good morning ," "Gracias" which means "Thank you," and "Que serd serd" which means "Your llama is on my foot ."

In order to help you enjoy the fabled land of Puer to Rico it would be well f o r me to supply a bit of historical background. ( I t would also be well fo r me to say a few words about Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades be-cause the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades pay me to wr i t e this column and they a re inclined to sulk if I omit to mention their product . Of course, they don' t s tay gloomy long, f o r they a re kindly, cheery men fond of Morr is dancing, spelling bees, and temperance punch—fine, u p r i g h t types, as t rue and gleaming and durable as the blades they make. And if you've t r ied Personna 's , you know how t rue and gleaming and durable t ha t is! And if you haven ' t t r ied Personna 's , poor devil, you've cheated both your purse and face, f o r Personna's , last and last, shave a f t e r luxury shave, close, clean, nick-, less, backless, tugless, gougeless, scratchless, matchless. Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades come in Double Edge or In jec tor style and are made only by the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades.)

But I digress. Back to the h is tory of Pue r to Rico. The island was discovered by t ha t popular discoverer Chris-topher Columbus. Incidentally, considering Columbus' populari ty, i t ' s odd we know so little about him. Wha t do we really know? Only t h i s :

He was born in Genoa on Augus t 25, 1451, the son of Ralph T. Columbus, a knee-cymbal vendor, and Eleanor ( S w i f t y ) Columbus, a low hurdler . He was an only child except fo r his five b ro the r s and e ight s is ters . F rom early childhood he was an avid reader and spent all his waking hours immersed in a book. Unfor tuna te ly , there was only one book in Genoa at the t ime—Care of the Horse by Aris to t le—and a f t e r 18 years of reading Care of the Horse, Columbus grew restless. When rumor reached him there was another book in Madrid, off he ran as f a s t as his little f a t legs would car ry him.

Disappointment , alas, awaited him there. The only book in Madrid was Cuidar un Cdballo, which proved to be noth-ing more than a Spanish t rans la t ion of Care of the Horse.

Then one day Columbus heard f rom a t ravel ler t h a t there were millions of books in India, and he was in-s tant ly ablaze to set sail. Off he ran on his little f a t legs to the court of Fe rd inand and Isabella (Columbus, though more than six fee t tall, was plagued with little f a t legs all his l i fe) and, as we all know, he persuaded the Span-ish rulers to outfit him with three stout ships, the Flopsy, the Mopsy, and the Cottontail, and the rest is h i s to ry!

Well sir, now you know all about the or igins of Pue r to Rico. So get packed and get going! You'll love i t ! Stroll the beaches, swim the coves, brea the the f r a g r a n c e of hibiscus and bougainvillea. And remember always t ha t the f r i end ly Pue r to Ricans are delighted to show you the i r customs, teach you the i r language. Why, I'll wager you'll soon know f a r more Spanish than the three basic phrases . You'll know "Hasta la vista" which means "See you la ter ." "For fdvor" which means "Please ," and "El tren se pard en las esta-cidn" which means "Your llama has eaten my passpor t . "
