Invita- to 150 graduates of the college who are now living in the vicinity of the furniture city. Wives and husbands of graduates are urged to include themselves in the general welcome. This banquet will be conducted much the same as was the local reunion held at Hope Reformed Church in Holland during spring vacation. The evening will permit of much social visiting, a feature which makes the event of more value to long separated friends. Of- ficers and committees will be ap- pointed to take care of the future destinies of the Grand Rapids Hope Alumni. It is expected that Rev. Nicholas Boer and Rev. S. Nettinga will give short talks at the meet- ing. The faculty committee of the col- lege which is directing the several current alumni banquets consists of Prof. A. Lampen, chairman; Prof. C. Kleis, Prof. E. Wolters, Miss M. Ross and Miss A. Dykhuizen. o After trying for two weeks to catch a mouse that was making itself to home in their room, John- son and Ives, Inc., succeeded in the difficult feat. Now they've decided that it must be twins. The senior class play tick- ets have been selling rapidly. Every one has been working so hard this year that they are grasping at the opportunity of having one good laughing, hilarious time before the year finally comes to a close. No one will be disappointed; each will receive his share of fun and shouting. "The Torch Bearer" is so funny that the cast, in rehearsing can scarcely make progress. Members of the senior class are selling the tickets (in six different colors) for each per- formance. The prices are 75c and 50c. and can be reserved next Friday, May 2, at Huizen- ga's Jewelry Store. Buy your tickets early and be first for reservations to assure yourself of a good location.

P. McLean and ten stu- dents left Hope College at 5 o'clock for an observation tour of the week day schools of religion at Gary, Indiana and Oak Park, Chicago. The trip is related by one who made it. "We arrived at Gary at about 8:30 and visited two different classes, one of which was taught by a multi-millionaire (feminine), be- cause she loved to teach! (faculty, please take note). From here we traveled "en masse" to Hull House, dined in their cafeteria, and then were shown through the settlement home. Our class work ended here, for the day. The Co-eds made their places of refuge known to our cap- able chape rone; but before we came to a parting of ways Prof. McLean took us to the Ghetto where our salesman's resistance was given the supreme te^t. From here we went as each saw fit. Policeman Is Jollied Friday morning we met Prof. McLean on Michigan Boulevard at nine o'clock. Through peerless strategy an Irish Cop was "bribed" for permission to make this busy street the starting point of our exo- dus on that day's itinerary. We immediately drove to Oak Park where we again saw our class-room theories put to practice. While here, we visited the most modem church building in America — Oak Park Baptist church. This was the last place of observation and the trek homeward was initiated. We wisheu to visit the steel mills, but pre-arrangement default nfSfred our visit. Some of us returned to Indiana Harbor to attempt a visit of the mill at that city. Because the fairer sex was not allowed to make the visit, the better judgment of some of the greater sex decided to forget the other mills and ush- ered the girls safely to the Dean. While six fellows visited the Indi- ana mills, and considered the time well spent. All returned Friday at a reasonable hour. Everyone visited the new Univer- sity Chapel, and the man at the Helm spent a few n^ental hours at Northwestern. Lesser places of in- terest attracted each of us at dif- ferent intervals. Enjoy Journey Those making the trip were Prof. (Continued on Page !>) The Detroit Tigers and the Hope College "Whoozits" are evidently running a race for the booby prize. The only practical difference being that Hope plays only once a week and thereby cuts down her total number of defeats. The team trav- eled to Hillsdale last Saturday and gave big "Dutch" Poppink the poor- est support imaginable and again took the useless end of a 9 to 0 score. Poppink was going great guns and really deserved to win. Only four good solid smacks were made off him, the rest were infield flukes that should have been cuts. Besides these attacks of slow field- ing, the infield showed that its case was decidedly chronic by mussing up about half of the remaining chances. Ver Strate came through with his usual pair of errors while Brink and Nauta far outdid him in this department of play. Even Spoelstra, with very little to do, found opportunity to contribute to this undesirable column. Some Stellar Work The game was not without its bright spots, however. The same infield that insisted on making easy chances look hard was the fntmt|iulator of two very rapid I double plays. In the third Poppink threw out Lewis at* first and Spoel- stra snapped to the plate to catch Nast attempting to score from third on the play. Then in the seventh, after Brink had erred to allow Hillsdale occupation of the initial sack, Ver StraTe nailed a hard grounder, threw to Brink at second. Brink, with equal agility! shot to first to complete the play. Poppink Fast As Poppink is to be congratu-j lated so also comment should be made on Nast, the opposing hurler. Perhaps this is merely a way of apologizing for lack of Hope hits, anyway Nast allowed a measly five hits, and these were well scat- tered. While his control was rather bad, his round house and speed ball had Hope bats swinging fruitlessly. The Hope hits were divided among Jappinga, Van Lente, Poppink, Spoelstra, and Ver Strate. All in all, it was not a very (Con ti mini on Pa ye J,) JIEN RATE WITH HIGH ESI Registrar's List Here Printed Gives Middle Names of Our Elders Who Soon Take Gown The senior class of 1930 hereby has its academic achievements broadcast to the world in the form of the following list of Irveragos won by them after four years of stern scholarly pursuits. Of the 97 seniors in the group, the highest mark is 94.01% as has been pre- viously stated, and the lowest Is 77.45%. It may prove interesting to the student body to examine the list and locate their friend's rat- ings. It is a revealing experience. Among the first twenty names on the list you will find twelve girls and eight boys. However, the eight boys are most prevalent among the higher ratings. Of the first six, but one is a girl. One name, that of Mildred De Pree, was not previous- ly given as among the higher group. She is hereby listed as eigh- teenth in her class. As an especial form of entertain- ment for our readers we secured the registrar's list which includes ail middle names of the seniors. Now you may become informed as to the extra "handles" these worthy folk are secretly hiding. Senior Averages Kuizenga, Man-in Henry 94.61 De Pree, John N.

So far most of the base- ball practices have been "scrub" games, but this week teams of lar- ger numbers are coming out, as in all probability the new contests will start in a week, although Coach Jack Schouten has made no definite plans as yet. Aletheans are placing their bets on Julia Hondelink, Bernice Mol- lema, Sarah Fox, Marguerite Kin- kema, and Maggie Kole in the base- ball games. Julia Hondelink is get- ting lots of Alethean support in her position of star tennis player and stands a good chance for the finals. Delphi has a good tennis team composed of Hazel Paalman, Kay Skillem, Ruth Weidner and Esther Mulder. Hazel Paalman also leads the baseball squad and with such cohorts as Myrtle Klooster, Alice Boter, Kay Skillem and Ann Hey- boer, Delphi will make a fair bid for the baseball championship. Dorian's hopes lie in "Lin" Sabo, Olivia Johnson. Miyo Tase and An- nette Bos in tennis, and these same players plus Henrietta Lamet, Ber- nadine Siebers and "Joey" Roden- burg will form the nucleus of the baseball team. Sibylline Daisy Zandstra is the tennis champ that all other soci- eties are fearing, and Olive Peeke and Lucille Walvoord for Sorosis are not far behind the pace which Daisy's steady serve sets. Sibylline is practicing hard on the diamond and with the Steketee sisters, Tillie Masselink, and Lucy Rader, they will have a strong defense. Sorosis boasts Edith Drescher, Betty Smith, Marion Anderson and Arloa Van Peursem. Two weeks ago we published an inquiring reported article in which the preponderance of opinion favored the "dry is- sue." The Holland Evening Sentinel of a few days later carried a lengthy commenda- tion on the idea, with the fol- lowing remarks outstanding: "Why isn't that just as fair as to take a poll of Harvard or Yale, schools attended by young people from ultra-liber- al homes? Are those polls more representative than the polls taken in a small college like Hope attended by boys and girls from average fami- lies? The many small colleges of the land would most cer- tainly vote dry. Does not their opinion offset the blare of trumpets from the large uni- versities of the land?" CHAIRMEN BEGIN BANfiDET SEASON Presidents Seem To Favor The Appointment Of Larger Committees All of the societies on the cam- pus have elected the chairmen for their banquets or parties. The chair- men have in turn named other peo- ple to work with them in arranging the festivities. The committees that have been appointed follow: Alethea—Mildred Schuppert, chairman. Polly Hondelink Bernice Mollema Anetta McGilvra Ruby Aiken Gertrude Benes Dorian—Josephine Rodenberg, chairman. Olivia Johnson Anette Bos Alice Brunson Alma Plakke Sibylline—Evelyn Steketee. chairman. Sadie G. Masselink Gertrude Hansen Tillie Masselink Sorosis—Marian Anderson, chairman. Marion Katte Ruth Van Dyke Elizabeth Arendshorst Betty Smith Bessie Schouten Ethel Cunnagin The men's societies have been just as busy as have the girl's: Addison—H. Bast, chairman. S. Heersma Cosmopolitan—William Kuiper, chairman. Carl Van Lente H. Kruizenga L. Vander Werf M. Leenhouts L. Serier Emersonian—H. Klaasen, chairman L. De Cook W. Ensfield The Fraters are going to have an informal party in order to cut down on expenses, and they have appoint- ed the following committee: Alvin Cook, chairman B. Arendshorst P. Nettinga Knickerbocker—Ed Tellman, chairman. Russ Smith Harold Dykhuizen Reo Marcotte Roy Mooi Herbert Marsilje o Nellie Van Eeuwen spent the week-end with "Millie" Klan at her home in Spring Lake. PETITION TO PBT BLANKET FEE IN EFFECTAPPROYED Final Steps Taken To Prepare Blanket Fee Idea For Last Faculty Consideration ALUMNI BEGIN TO TAKE INTEREST IN IT Suggestion That "Y" Fee Also Be Included Is Acted Upon by Student Council The drive for the "blanket fee" is progressing with spirit. Those petitions that have already been passed around at some society meetings have met with practically unanimous consent. The Cosmopol- itans, the Dorians, the Sibyllines, the Aletheans, and the Delphians have already responded willingly to the appeal of the Student Coun- cil which came to them in the form of the, petition to be presented to the administration in the near fu- ture. Other groups will act this week. It is urgently desired that other copies of the petition which will be presented will receive as whole-hearted co-operation as these have. The success of the whole measure rests entirely upon the united opinion of the student body; the Student Council is abso- lutely powerless without that. Debate Including "Y" The suggestion came to the Stu- dent Council that the fee should include some certain amount for the Y.M. and Y.W. work. The Council met Monday to tatlk over the proposition and have reached a decision in the matter. Although an inclusive "Y" fee went under discussion and was rejected as un- wise before the division of the fee was announced, the Student Coun- cil agreed Monday to give their financial support in whatever all- college activities the Y's may wish to undertake. For example, the Freshmen Reception, the all-col- lege banquet, and other activities in which any student may join in, will receive financial aid from the Council's funds. Since the Council gets $1.50 of the |10.00, it will be capable of doing this in an ade- quate manner. The reason the Council rejected the proposed "Y" fee be included was that they believed that com- pulsory contribution to "Y" work spoiled the spirit of the work en- tirely; that in accordance with the nature and function of the "Y's," such contributions should be avoid- ed. Under the settlement reached Monday, however, the genuine value of this work will be unim- paired by compulsory payments, and at the same time those activi- ties of the "Y's," in which a major- ity will join in, need not be financed by a minority of "Y" members. The end achieved is the same as though the blanket fee did include a "Y" fee; the channel through which the money goes is the only difference. "Grads" Have Voice Those literary societies which have not already acted on the peti- tion will do so this week. It is in- tended that the local well known alumni will have a voice in the matter, also. With several hundred signed requests favorable action, the administration will no doubt see its way tg a careful considera- tion of the matter. A unified stu- dent-body consciousness is the goal of those agitating the use of this system. o There was an editorial in last night's Sentinel mentioning Hope College.

Prof . E. P. McLean and ten stu-dents lef t Hope College a t 5 o'clock

fo r an observation tour of the week

day schools of religion a t Gary,

Indiana and Oak P a r k , Chicago. The t r ip is related by one who

made it.

" W e arrived a t Gary a t about

8:30 and visited two different classes, one of which was t augh t by

a multi-millionaire ( feminine) , be-

cause she loved to teach! ( facul ty , please take note) . From here we

traveled "en masse" to Hull House, dined in their cafe ter ia , and then were shown through the se t t lement

home. Our class work ended here, fo r the day. The Co-eds made their

places of r e fuge known to our cap-able chape rone; but before we

came to a pa r t ing of ways Prof .

McLean took us to the Ghet to

where our sa lesman 's resistance was given the supreme te^t . From

here we went as each saw fit.

Policeman Is Jollied F r iday morning we met Prof.

McLean on Michigan Boulevard a t nine o'clock. Through peerless

s t r a t egy an Irish Cop was "br ibed" for permission to make th is busy

s t reet the s t a r t i ng point of our exo-dus on t h a t day 's i t inerary. We

immediately drove to Oak Park

where we again saw our class-room theories put to practice. While

here , we visited the most modem church building in America — Oak

Park Baptis t church. This was the last place of observation and the

t rek homeward was init iated. We wisheu to visit the steel mills, but

p re -a r rangement de fau l t nfSfred our visit. Some of us returned to Indiana Harbor to a t t e m p t a visit

of the mill a t t ha t city. Because the f a i r e r sex was not allowed to make the visi t , the be t te r judgment

of some of the g rea t e r sex decided to fo rge t the o ther mills and ush-ered the gir ls safe ly to the Dean.

While six fellows visited the Indi-ana mills, and considered the t ime well spent . All re turned Fr iday a t a reasonable hour.

The only practical difference being tha t Hope plays only once a week

and thereby cuts down her to ta l

number of defea ts . The team t r av -eled to Hillsdale last Sa tu rday and

gave big "Du tch" Poppink the poor-est suppor t imaginable and aga in

took the useless end of a 9 to 0

score. Poppink was going g r e a t guns and really deserved to win.

Only four good solid smacks were

made off him, the rest were infield flukes tha t should have been cuts.

Besides these a t tacks of slow field-ing, the infield showed tha t i ts case

was decidedly chronic by mussing

up about half of t he remaining chances. Ver S t ra te came through

with his usual pair of e r rors while Brink and N a u t a f a r outdid him in this depa r tmen t of play. Even

Spoelstra , wi th very little to do, found opportuni ty to contr ibute to

this undesirable column.

Some Stellar Work The game was not without i ts

br ight spots , however. The same

infield tha t insisted on making easy chances look hard was the fntmt | iulator of two very rapid I

double plays. In the third Poppink threw out Lewis at* first and Spoel-

s t r a snapped to the pla te to catch Nas t a t t empt ing to score f r o m

third on the play. Then in the

seventh, a f t e r Brink had er red to

allow Hillsdale occupation of the

initial sack, Ver StraTe nailed a hard grounder , th rew to Brink a t

second. Brink, with equal agi l i ty! shot to first to complete the play.

As Poppink is to be congra tu - j lated so also comment should be

made on Nas t , the opposing hur ler . Perhaps th is is merely a way of apologizing fo r lack of Hope hits ,

— anyway Nas t allowed a measly five hits, and these were well scat-tered. While his control was r a t h e r

bad, his round house and speed ball

had Hope ba t s swinging frui t less ly . The Hope hi ts were divided among

SORORITY "ATHLETESSES" TAKE

UP THRILLS OF INDOOR BALL

Now tha t the successful season of the inter-sorori ty basketball t eams is a th ing of the past , the gir ls are pract is ing up on diamond and court . So far most of the base-

ball practices have been "sc rub" games, but this week teams of lar-

ger numbers are coming out , as in all probabili ty the new contests will

s t a r t in a week, al though Coach Jack Schouten has made no definite plans as yet .

Ale theans are placing the i r bets

on Ju l ia Hondelink, Bernice Mol-

lema, Sa r ah Fox, Marguer i te Kin-kema, and Maggie Kole in the base-ball games . Julia Hondelink is get-t ing lots of Alethean support in her

position of s ta r tennis player and s tands a good chance for the finals.

Delphi has a good tennis team composed of Hazel Paalman, Kay

Ski l lem, Ruth Weidner and Esther Mulder. Hazel Paa lman also leads the baseball squad and wi th such

cohorts as Myrt le Klooster, Alice Boter, Kay Skil lem and Ann Hey-

boer, Delphi will make a fa i r bid fo r the baseball championship.

Dorian's hopes lie in " L i n " Sabo,

Olivia Johnson. Miyo Tase and An-nette Bos in tennis, and these same

players plus Henr ie t ta Lamet , Ber-nadine Siebers and " Joey" Roden-bu rg will form the nucleus of the

baseball team.

Sibylline Daisy Zands t ra is the

tennis champ t h a t all o ther soci-eties a r e fea r ing , and Olive Peeke and Lucille Walvoord for Sorosis

are not f a r behind the pace which Daisy's s teady serve sets . Sibylline

is pract ic ing hard on the diamond and with the Steketee sisters, Tillie Masselink, and Lucy Rader, they will have a s t rong defense. Sorosis

boasts Edi th Drescher, Bet ty Smith, Marion Anderson and Arloa Van Peursem.

Two weeks ago we published an inquiring reported article in which the preponderance of opinion favored the "dry is-

sue." The Holland Evening Sentinel of a few days later carr ied a lengthy commenda-tion on the idea, with the fol-

lowing r emarks outs tanding: "Why isn' t t h a t ju s t as fair

as to take a poll of Harvard or

Yale, schools at tended by young people f r o m ultra-l iber-al homes? Are those polls

more representat ive than the polls taken in a small college like Hope at tended by boys

and girls f rom average fami-

l ies? The many small colleges of the land would most cer-

tainly vote dry. Does not their opinion offset the blare of

t rumpe t s f rom the la rge uni-versit ies of the l a n d ? "

PETITION TO PBT BLANKET FEE IN EFFECTAPPROYED

Final Steps Taken To Prepare Blanket Fee Idea For Last

Faculty Consideration

ALUMNI BEGIN TO TAKE INTEREST IN IT

Suggest ion That " Y " Fee Also Be

Included Is Acted Upon by

Student Council

The drive for the "blanket fee" is progressing with spiri t . Those

petitions t ha t have already been

passed around a t some society meetings have met with practically unanimous consent. The Cosmopol-itans, the Dorians, the Sibyllines,

the Aletheans, and the Delphians have already responded willingly

to the appeal of t he Student Coun-cil which came to them in t he form

of the, petition to be presented to the adminis trat ion in the nea r f u -

ture. Other groups will act th i s week. I t is urgently desired tha t

other copies of the petition which will be presented will receive as

whole-hearted co-operation as

these have. The success of the whole measure res t s entirely upon the united opinion of the student

body; the Student Council is abso-lutely powerless without tha t .

Debate Including "Y"

The suggest ion came to the Stu-

dent Council tha t t he fee should include some cer ta in amount f o r the Y.M. and Y.W. work. The

Council met Monday to ta t lk over the proposition and have reached a

decision in the ma t t e r . Al though an inclusive " Y " fee went under

discussion and was rejected as un-wise before the division of the fee

was announced, the Student Coun-cil agreed Monday to give the i r financial support in whatever all-

college activities the Y's m a y wish to undertake. Fo r example, the

F reshmen Reception, the all-col-lege banquet , and other activities in which any s tudent may join in,

will receive financial aid f r o m the Council's funds. Since the Council

ge ts $1.50 of the |10.00, it will be

capable of doing this in an ade-quate manner .

The reason the Council re jected the proposed "Y" fee be included was t h a t they believed t h a t com-

pulsory contribution to " Y " work spoiled the spir i t of the work en-

t i rely; t h a t in accordance with the na ture and function of the "Y's ," such contributions should be avoid-

ed. Under the se t t lement reached Monday, however, the genuine value of this work will be unim-

paired by compulsory payments ,

and a t the same time those activi-ties of the "Y's ," in which a major -ity will join in, need not be financed by a minori ty of "Y" members. The

end achieved is the same as though

the b lanket fee did include a " Y " fee; the channel through which the

money goes is the only difference.

"Grads" Have Voice

Those l i terary societies which have not already acted on the peti-tion will do so this week. I t is in-

tended tha t the local well known alumni will have a voice in the

mat te r , also. With several hundred signed requests favorable action, the adminis t ra t ion will no doubt

see i ts way tg a ca re fu l considera-tion of the mat te r . A unified stu-dent-body consciousness is the goal of those ag i ta t ing the use of this sys tem.

K SUGGESTING A TENNIS TOURNAMENT

Now that the Interfraternity basketball tournament has

come to a close and baseball alone occupies the sport head-

lines, it is perhaps not out of place to suggest that another

tournament, this time in tennis, be introduced to furnish the

needed outlet for under-graduate athletic activity. Since the

number of those who can participate in Spring sports is nat-

urally limited, it seems that an interclass tennis tournament

would serve the same ends as the interfraternity basketball

contests in affording some sort of competition for the under-

graduate body.

Since the advantages of the basketball tournament were

recognized, it should not be difficult to extend the same rea-

soning to the field of tennis. Principally, the aim is that of

getting as many undergraduates as possible to participate in sports, with the added incentive offered by such competi-tion. For most College men the chances of engaging in com-petitive sport at any length are considerably restricted, and it is because they provide outlets for this natural competitive spirit that the inter-class and inter-fratemity events are such a desirable adjunct to the athletic season.

Tennis should have an even greater attraction as a tourna-ment sport than basketball for it has the advantage of being played outdoors. There is, also, less trouble about arranging matches, for two men can be gotten together with much less trouble than a team, and they can make their arrangements for play at a certain time on the courts. Since, in addition, tennis permits the participation of a large number of men and there are other small advantages to the idea, such as the greater ease with which practice may be arranged, a tennis tournament of this sort is not only feasible but desirable.

The only question which arises in consideration of the proposed tournament is whether it should be inter-frater-nity affair, such as the recently finished basketball one, or an inter-class affair. The factor which would most likely miti-gate against the former is the difficulty of conducting a tour-nament on fraternity lines, since the number of players re-quired for a team is not likely to be found in many of the houses. The class, on the other hand, offers a wider field from which to pick a team and the division of the tournament into four classes provides an easier method of administration and arrangements of schedule, with the additional recommend-ation that it does not exclude non-fraternity men.

As to the structure of the class team, the aim is to secure a squad which will use a sufficiently large number of men without becoming unwieldy. For this purpose a team of six singles men and three doubles teams, with the members re-stricted from participating in more than one of these events, would be the best size, employing twelve players. With the number of substitutes included, Ihis should bring the roster of those engaged in the tournament to about sixty. Since the contest would be a class affair, some suitable award, such as class numerals, should be given the winning team.

In the opportunity of participation in competitive sport it affords to a large number of College men such a tournament can have only the approbation of those interested in athletics. This greater participation in athletic activity by as large as possible a number of undergraduates is more truly a desirable state of affairs than the production of good teams for which the majority of the College do not try out; at present, for-tunately, we have the opportunity of combining the advant-ages of both syBiemB.—Columbia Spectator.

LANDMARKS AT HOPE

The "Spoonholder"— Those barbed wire fences— "Future shadows" tha t materialized— Don Hicks' nose The observatory.

Did you know that , a f te r Arabs have their teeth pulled, they speak gum arabic?

We have been requested to announce to the freshmen that if they desire to learn to skate before the party they can receive instructions f rom the following sophomores; Mary Kosegarten, Miyo Tase, and Kemal Toomian.

We certainly were glad to see that the concensus of opinion among Hope students was dry. It was encouraging. We always knew from classroom experience tha t some of the faculty were, and we like to see the students supporting them.

Ode to the Sun Rise and Rise, And shine and shine. And heat this frozen world. Smile upon the grass and trees And on the dainty flowers—(tweet, tweet) Work and play and rest, But for cat's sake don't take a vacation The night of our spring banquet!!

(NOTE)—This may not be good poetry, but it has a universa appeal—and no one is asked to read it anyway.

Oh!!—and did you hear about the athletic field Hope is going to have? Neither did we.

Due to the great difficulty some of our more reticent students have in getting someone to take to the spring banquet, we have decided to establish a sort of matrimonial agency in order to help those who neec assistance. By filling out the coupon below, you will place us at your service. Mail in a stamped envelope.

Dear Sirs: I desire to avail myself of the opportunities afforded by your matrimonial agency. My preferences are checked be-low. If there are no checks, I indicate that I am not in the least bit particular.

Blonde or Brunette (underline preference). Dormitory gir l? Yes No (underline preference). Do you smoke? Yes No (underline preference). What society do you belong to? (Indicate in English). What society do you prefer your guest to come from ?

If all students who are concerned with this momentous question will fill out the coupon, we will be able to acquaint them with those o the opposite sex who might desire them. We can arrange meetings for a nominal fee. See you next week.

MEN! She Whooped To Con-

quer! Let's Roar To Victory!

Last week the comparative oeace

and quiet of our cosy little college was rudely disrupted by an out-burst of femininism in the form of a "virulent and seditious" edi-torial published in this paper and written by a disappointed co-ed. The paper fairly seethed^ with a pent up and overflowing tirade of hatred such as tha t most honorable group, Hope College MEN, has never before, and never again, should be forced to undergo. The genius behind this most impassion-ed and ungoverned outburst was always one whom we held in par-ticular respect. But now! Those mild blue eyes have told the secret of the unquenchable fire that they have been so carefully concealing, and those ruby lips have parted— and behold we see before us a veri-table army of gnashing teeth. What we had thought was a bubbling brook is a mountain torrent! Our pleasant mound js a Vesiuvius! Men, we are doomed. The fates have decreed against us. Af ter the failure of modernism, there was only one thing could take its place, its most hateful child, FEMIN-ISM!

Men, we must be on our guard. These injuries cannot be tolerated. We must demand an immediate and unconditional surrender. We must have redress. Not long can men of Hope tolerate such blatant insubor-dination!

Last, but not least—this tyrant (unnamed, but known) has added insult to injury. Af ter criticising us for faults and weaknesses that exist only in her imaginative brains she has hinted tha t we are Not SUPERIOR. Men! Such popularity ia not deserved!

t X O / M W From—"The College Chronicle" o

North Central College, Illinois. Fifteen Students Off for the South

A large Wills bus, containing a group of 15 students, several towns-people and the leader of the t r ip Doctor C. J . Attig, sped out o Naperville Saturday m o r n i n g shortly a f te r six o'clock, bound for the south and its many points of historic interest. Twenty-five per-sons completed the load. The grips were snugly packed inside, protect ed from rain and dust, a radio, al equipped, was ready to be used, and the third annual history trip, a ten-day, 2100 mile tour of ten states, was on its way.

Before their return the middle of next week the travelers will have seen all the beauty of the south in springtime and most of the historic points of interest in Kentucky, Ten-nessee, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana.

The Fountain Scrap Many students, it seems, are not

aware that definite action has been taken by the student council and administration, abolishing com-pletely the traditional fountain painting and scrap. Not only has the student council passed a resolu-tion to the effect tha t any person or persons participating in such an af -fa i r will be subject to expulsion, but the administration has agreed to enforce the rule with an iron hand.

The annual orgy has always re-sulted in serious mutilation of col-lege property, to say nothing of In-jury to participants, and has been carried so f a r tha t it can no longer be tolerated. Plans are already under way for a clean-up week.

Alumni Opinion This communication was received

by the ANCHOR last Friday. We pass it on to you as definite proof tha t the campus activities still in-terest graduates of the College. The ANCHOR takes no issue with any person if the material submitted is not libelous. We are proud ol "reader response." Friends of Hope:

I was agreeably surprised to read the announcement of the Fraternal Society in this week's ANCHOR which reached me this morning. Banquets, when instituted on the Hope campus, were of much social significance, but the secret trend in social activities the past few years has been toward more and more in-formal affairs. Banquets now are limited to more formal, or honorary occasions. The Fraternal Society has but taken note of the fact tha t a banquet, as a social function for young college people, has outgrown its worth on the Hope campus for the purpose it ilTintended to serve.

Many members of the Hope Alumni have long deprecated the frequent lavish expenditures for banquets, feeling that the returns of such an event did not warrant the expense. Especially a t this time is a curtailment of expense a com-mendable move, and the Fraternal Jociety members are to be congrat-ulated for their foresight and com-mon sense. They have taken the initiative to abolish an outworn and extravagant custom and are substi-tuting, I believe, an informal spring party which surely ought to be more enjoyable than attending more or less formal banquet with its at tendant stilted atmosphere.

As a "grad" the change has a personal appeal, and if the oppor-tunity were presented to all of us to attend informal parties rather than the customary banquets of our par-ticular societies, I am sure that more of us would make an effort to attend regularly, thereby keep-ing in closer contact with the active members.

The step taken by the Fraternal Society will be generally approved, I believe, by the Hope Alumni and administration, and in the end, 1 hope, by the student body. A precedent had to be established to provide less expensive, yet more en-joyable, social functions for both t^ie active and alumni members of the various Hope College social groups.

GIRLS' GOSPEL TEAM GOES TO

VILLAGE EAST OF CITY

This past week-end one of the girls' gospel teams composed of Roxie Haldane, Evelyn Albers, Mil-dred Schuppert and Mary Kose garten were guests of the Keformet Church at Ebenezer. Roxie Hal dane was leader of the C. E. meet-ing using as her topic "Usefu Lives," and Miss Albers sang at the C. E. and church services. Tis is the second time this year that this team has been out. Early in the winter they took charge of the meeting at Sixth Reformed Church

Classes, according to these plans will be dismissed on the Friday afternoon of tha t week for a gen-eral "straightening-up" of the cam-pus.

From—"The Olivet College Echo" Olivet, Michigan. The Olivet College Orchestra con

ducted by Mr. Pedro Paz will pre-sent a concert in the College Church tonight—Wednesday eve-ning—free of charge. The program will be practically the same as that given at Grand Rapids and Muske-gon during the recent trip.

Olivet seems to be exchanging acuity members with Albion, for he administration has just notified he Echo tha t Mrs. Ruth Hemblt

of Albion has been engaged as dean of women and instructor in En-glish. The vacancy had been caused by the resignation of Miss Nell Blythe Waldron.

Student Opinion QUESTION: What is your

general opinion of athletics a t Hope ? Did the All-College banquet change your opinion?

One of the A.D.D. members an-swers; "The All-College banquet not only gave us Christmas and Santa Claus, but also a New Year in the sporting history of Hope. Coach " Judy" Hymes' fine appeal rekindled the dying embers of a now unquenchable fire; the fire of ineffable loyalty, perseverance,

Fai r Play," and insurmountable courage."

An intellectual w i z a r d and staunch supporter informs us: "My general opinion of athletics a t Hope is tha t they are being supported with enthusiasm, and are doing a great deal to keep up school spirit . An especially good feature th is year is the introduction of inter-f r a t emi ty contests. These contests may not be as interesting as varsi ty games; but they give a much larger number of students a chance to play, create their share of spirit , and cost nothing—for Athletic Board and spectator alike. They form a valuable supplement to in-tercollegiate athletics."

One student thinks the effects of the A.C. dinner to be so distinct tha t they may be tabulated: "1— School spirit ran highest in the year, including the 'Homecoming.' It was not wild enthusiasm; it was deep and appreciated. 2—The school has the spiri t ; a few more victories might d rag more f rom this supposedly lethargic studentry. 3—The presenting of letters binds the students closer to their a th -letes: they find a warm reception where they are given. It is a pi ty —to express a s t rong feeling in a weak way—that the men had to wait so long and lose so much en-thusiasm before they received the reward of their efforts. 4—The stu-dent body, and particularly the a th -letes, are very gra tefu l to Prof. P. E. McLean for having at last made possible the realization of one of their sincerest wishes. 5—Hope College has the athletes."

Strong enthusiasm filled the heart of the co-ed who answered: "Coach 'Judy' Hymes' appeal touch-ed the heart of every one who had even an atom of sporting blood in his veins. He added something vital to our code of sportsmanship and made each and every one of us proud of Hope College and the Spirit back of Hope. We were given new courage and an indomitable-ness to fight for the unconquerable spirit of fair play that we know exists in the heart of every t rue Hopeite."

These comments would not be complete without that of one of Hope's finest athletes. "The All-College banquet did not necessarily change my att i tude toward athle-tics, simply because I have always tried to give my support and en-couragement to our teams and have always wished to see them receive some reward beside that of the game itself. This wish being ful-filled did my heart good. The a th-letes of next year will reap their inspiration from this banquet."

To gr in and bear it , is the only word of comfor t we can find fo r the co-eds who now are justified in feel ing t h a t t he r e are fifty-two bet-ter looking gir ls on th i s campus than they.

CHOIR SINGERS F I N D PITCH

The Chapel Choir reached the climax of i t s career last Thursday morning when, a f t e r a vain search for the r igh t pitch, the members made a brave a t t empt and sang the amens anyway. The s tudent body felt a g rea t deal of concern for their physical welfare, f ea r ing t h a t a s ta te of complete exhaustion might follow such an exhibition of force. One Voorheesite even made her roommate 's bed in case she re-turned in a s t a t e of collapse.

"Hey, you, (|uit hanging on my sweater , will y o u ? " Tha t was the general t rend of the remarks made a t the Freshman roller skat ing par ty held a t Virginia Park Rink last Wednesday evening.

There were some casualties, but for the most part everyone but Al-bert Holland stayed on their fee t when they went through the arches. Of course, Norman and Aradi couldn't seemingly acclimate them-selves, but they weren' t much the worse for wear when ten- th i r ty came around.

Fros tbi tes furnished a delectable r e f reshment a f t e r the evening frolic. This was the second of the par t ies held by Hope's year l ings.

T h a t Capital Punishment Be Put in Vogue in Michigan." There were

two debates and two two-men t eams of Hope represented both sides of the question.

Raymond Schaap and Cornelius Net t inga debated the affirmative side and were defea ted . The second

team, debat ing the negative, made up of Carl Pos tma and Kamil Toon-

ian, won. The audience acted as judge. i |

Pi Kappa Delta keys will be pre-sented to eleven Hope College stu-dents a t a banquet to be held here

Hope got but t h r ee hi ts off the offer ings of P i tcher Nas t in the Hillsdale game. Ve r S t r a t e , J a p -inga, and Spoels t ra each got a clean single in different innings. N a s t

Karl Feens t ra , Hope's baseball manage r , is kept busy every a f t e r -noon t a k i n g care of many t a sks in connection with the team. He is

known to have t he best hand shake in baseball. His g ree t ing to rival

m a n a g e r s a lways d raws a g rea t amount of a t tent ion f rom the play-

and "Dutch" Steketee in football . * « «

At Hillsdale t he members of the team, especially J a p i n g a and Spoel-
