Hope College Anchor f » f f Volume XLV Hope College, Holland, Mich, December 21,1932 Presentation of 'The Messiah" Well Attended EXCELLENT SYMPHONY CON- CERT RENDERED Approximately 2100 enthusiastic listeners packed Hope Memorial chapel to capacity last Tuesday evening to hear Handel's "Messiah" as presented by the Holland Civic Chorus, accompanied by the Uni- versity of Michigan Symphony or- chestra and Mrs. W. Curtis Snow at the organ. The chorus and orchestra both gave excellent response to Mr. Snow's direction. The chorus, which has doubled in size and now num- bers 150, did work far superior to any of the three previous annual renditions. The two choruses re- ceiving the most comment were "Unto Us a Child Is Born," and "The Hallelujah Chorus," which wa r "yieed a thrilling climax to the production. The solo parts were taken by Miss Marjorie McClung of Grand Rapids, soprano; Mrs. Kathryn Strong Gudekunst of Grand Rapids, contralto; James De Jonge of Grand Rapids, tenor; and Jack Bos of Holland, bartitone. The City of Holland and Hope College owe a great deal to the University orchestra, Mr. David Mattern and Mr. Earl V. Moore for co-operating as whole-heartedly with the Civic Chorus and Mr. Snow. The University of Michigan Sym- phony Orchestra gave a very line concert last Tuesday afternoon for a crowd that very nearly filled the chapel. The orchestra, under the direction of Mr. David Mattern, did finished work in all of the numbers. The "Academic Festival Overture" by Brahms was beautifully played. The ethereal quality of the strings was brought out in the lovely "Sandman's Song and Evening Prayer" by Humperdinck while the brasses brought out some of the themes in the "Excerpts from Die Walkure," by Wagner, which fol- lowed. Perhaps the number most en- joyed on the program was the Con- certo for Piano, No. 20, by Mozart, played by Mr. Harold Gellman, senior in the School of Music of the university. Mr. Gellman showed fine technique and played with ease. The "Cal'riccio Espagnole" by Rimsky-Korsakov was the colorful composition of the program, dis- playing all of the instruments and making much use of the percus- sion. The applause showed the hearty appreciation of the audience in be- ing privileged to hear such an ex- ceptional program. r Hopeites Debate At Ypsilanti And Detroit DEBATES ARE INTERESTING AND RESULTS ARE CLOSE Number 51 Students Vote For Publication of Milestone PhiTau Nu Stage Annual Ladies' Night Party K. P. HALL IS SCENE OF FROLIC Knicks Entertain Guests at Jolly Christmas Party SANTA CLAUS MAKES FIRST APPEARANCE OF SEASON Carol Serenade Rendered By Fraternal Men Pres. Wichers Attends Meeting In New York VISITS SEVERAL ALUMNI President Wichers returned from New York Saturday, having attend- ed a meeting of the board of edu- cation of the Reformed Church. While on the trip he visited many Hope alumni at New Brunswick and Princeton, New Jersey, among whom was Dr. Samuel Zwemer, who has been seriously ill for a long time. Dr. Zwemer has fully recovered and expected to resume teaching last week. Dr. Wichers also attended a lecture given by Dr. Kuizenga, who has the largest class at Princeton. The K. P. hall glistened and scin- tillated with Christmas spirit on Friday night, Dec. 9, as the Emer- .sonians and their lady friends, who had pledged Phi Tau Nu for the evening, assembled for the annual Emersonian Ladies' night. The affair was in the form of a "pledge party," and each couple found their place at the tables by means of place cards which were in the form of miniature paddles. After a short period of college and popu- lar songs, with Sam Vander Beek handling the piano. Bill Ensfield, pledgemaster, introduced the speakers in his usual witty man- ner. Bob Freeman was first presented and made a "Pledge to the Sen- iors." Little doubt was leXtJn the minds of the audience of the'fact that the present seniors are the biggest and best ever in the history of Hope. Jimmy Van Vessem then "Pledged to the Ladies," and was followed by Bill Vander Veen, who made a "Pledge to Love in the form of a vocal solo. Bill sang "I Love You Truly," "Song of Love," and encored with "Goodnight Vi- enna." Alumnus J. H. De Witt then presented a "Pledge to Santa Claus," in his own inimitable style, and assured those of us who through the years had been enter- taining doubts on this question that the proof all points to the fact that there must be a Santa Claus, for look at all the eduation stu- dents who expect jobs at gradua- tion. Finally, Weldon Rummery brought the audience to a serious level, to counteract the reaction to De Witt 's remarks, with a "Pledge to Phi Tau Nu." Delicious (Continued on Page Three) The Knickerbocker society held their annual party Friday evening at the Knights of Pythias hall. The party was in the form of an "Old- Fashioned Christmas." At about 8 the various couples assembled and prepared themselves for a jolly good time. The meet- ing was called to order by William Meengs who introduced Bob Do- rian. Bod read some letters to Santa Claus, asking for some nice presents for the lady friends. Jack Van Der Meulen then rendered two violin solos, one of them being his own composition, "Fiddle Fingers." The refreshments were then served and immediately following these "Santa" came and presented the presents to all present. The balance of the evening was spent in enjoying various games such as pool, billiards, ping-pong and bridge. . The guests present were as fol- lows: The Misses Ruth Van Oss, Ruth Muilenberg, Joan Walvoord, Olive Wishmeier, Mildred Essenburgh, Gertrude Holleman, Marian Klaa- sen, Isabell Van Ark, Helen John- son, Camille Warren, Jean Rott- schaefer, Margaret Stryker, Eve- lyn Van Bree, Hazel Marcus, Hes- ter Pellegrini, Jewel Winslow, Lois Post, Mildred Klow, Cornelia Stry- ker, Julia Schipper, Muriel Chard, Jean Herman, Margaret Drogman, Alma Cook, Ruth Burkett, Evelyn Kingsbury, Elinor Pierrepont, Mar- jorie Scholten and Beatrice Visser. Mr. and Mrs. Donald Zwemer acted is the patrons of the evening. VARIETY OF MUSIC IS PRE- SENTED TO DORM GIRLS At about midnight on Friday the strains of the Frater song ris- ing from the court, called the sleepy inmates of Voorhees Hall through chilly halls to drafty windows to enjoy a Frater serenade. Not to be daunted by the zero weather or the illness of several of their mem- bers, the Fraters followed their long-established custom of an- nouncing to the dormites their new- ly elected officers for the coming term. Frater Jim Nettinga was the soloist, singing "My Silent Love." Christmas carols, such as "Silent Night," "Jingle Bells," etc., composed the appropriate chorus contribution of the serenade. The retiring president, John Muilen- berg, then introduced the new of- ficers to the eager listeners. With finger and toes probably decidedly a-tingle by this time, the group disbanded with the new Frater song, and "Good Night, Ladies." o Five members of Hope's debate squad journeyed to Detroit Friday, December 9, to compete with teams from Detroit City College, Detroit Law School, and Ypsilanti State Teachcrs College. Professor Ritter, debate coach; Marvin Kruizenga, debate manager; Joe Esther, Rich- ard Evenhuis, David De Witt, and Sherwood Price were the local men to take the trip. Arriving in Ypsilanti Friday aft- ernoon, Hope's negative team, com- posed ot Marvin kruizenga, Joe Es- ther, and Richard Evenhuis, de- bated against Ypsilanti's affirma- tive team. At the same time David De Witt, and Sherwood Price, Hope's affirmative team, met the negative team of the Teachers Col- lege. After the debates the Ypsi- lanti debate squad very kindly en- tertained the local debaters at a supper. Saturday noon the Detroit City Speech Conference gave a special luncheon in honor of the Hope stu- dents. Following the luncheon the negative team of Hope debated against the affirmative team of De- troit City College, while the local exponents of the affirmative side met the negative team of the De- troit Law School in the central V.M.C.A. building. After these de- bates the squad returned to Holland and arrived here Saturday evening. Commenting on the work of the local debaters, Professor Ritter stated that the debates were very interesting and the results were close. 1 he Hope debaters perform- ed especially well against the Ypsi- lanti debaters. Immediately after Christmas va- cation the debate squad will con- tinue its program of interscholastic debates. I wo debates have been scheduled with Michigan State Col- lege; the first to be held at St. Johns on January 18, the second to be staged in Allegan on December 19. Both debates will be held before county grange meetings. Professor Ritter announces that unless special notice is given, the squad will meet every Thursday afternoon at 4:00 P.M. At the next regular squad meeting Ex-Mayor Brooks will address the debators on the municipal aspects of the taxation problems. OPPOSING VIEWS PRESENTED IN CHAPEL In spite of the desire of the Jun- ior class to dispense with the Mile- stone for this year, the student body voted in favor of a publica- tion. The ballots cast showed 249 in favor and 113 opposing the issue. The sentiment of many of the Seniors did not harmonize with that of the Juniors. Therefore, Thursday morning, the Seniors, represented by James Van Vessem, made a plea to the student body in favor of the publication. He stated that the Seniors would be losing one of the dearest remem- brances of their experience at Hope if they did not have a year book in their last year. Comparing it to a fishing trip, it was like a man who goes fishing and comes home with plenty of stories but with no fish to prove his stories. He said that the plan of the Junior class to have the pictures of this year's Senior class in next year's publi- cation would not be very success- ful, because they, the Seniors, would be gone and the book would have lost interest for them by that time. Christian Walvoord, Junior, busi- ness manager of the Milestone staff, talked against the publica- tion. He said that there was still a large debt which had to be paid and it was not wise to contract more expense. He told of the plan of combining the allotment from the blanket fee for the publication with that of next year in order to produce a better annual. The pic- tures of the 1933 Senior class would be included in that annual. Although the Junior class is get- ting a late start on the year book, they will co-operate with the stu- dents and the Milestone staif will put forth every energy to publish a worthwhile Milestone.

It was amazing what they saw—Niagara Falls, President Hoover, Mammoth cave, the sunny South, Iowa and even the Rocky mountains.

He stressed the advantage of at- tending a small college where the opportunities for real advancement were more numerous than in a large university. He related sev- eral incidents in the life of a mod- ern research chemist. The company he represents has just recently dis- covered a new glue for cementing purposes which will be used in the building and decorating of the world's most beautiful modern liner. His discussion proved to be highly interesting and those who attended were indeed enlightened^ upon the problems of a modern chemist To close the delightful evening Mrs. Van Zyl served a delicious luncheon of pigs-in-blanket, cake and piping hot coffee. The fellows are only waiting for another invitation from the "Doc" and his wife.

A BETTER CHRISTMAS

Hard times haven't kept the months f rom slipping by and once again we find the Chris tmas season approaching. But fo r many of us Christmas this year will be quite different f rom those of other years. There will be very few expensive g i f t s and elaborate parties. There will be less hilarious cele-bration and light-heartedness. And for many there will be no Chris tmas a t all, except perhaps a good meal for a change through the kindness of some charity organization. It looks

pret ty gloomy, doesn't i t? But, on the other hand, this change may be jus t the thing

we need. Amidst the exchange of many presents, the laugh and excitement of Christmas celebrations, we've almost for-gotten the real significance of the day. The joy of receiving material g i f t s threatened to surpass the joy of receiving tha t grea t eternal Gif t which was given to all men on tha t first Chris tmas day. We almost forgot, too, the peace and good-will tha t each Christmas should bring. But now with the absence of the material things we will have time to think of the more lasting and worth-while g i f t s which it is possible foi us to receive. Our homes and families will mean more to us ; our fr iendship ties will be s t rengthened; our kind deeds will give us greater happiness; our smiles and cheery greetings will have a new value. Lastly, tha t Gift of the first Christmas

will attain its full significance. Thus, our Christmas will be just as gloomy as we make it.

but if we wish it, it may be one of the happiest we have ever

known.

Two whole weeks of vacation! What are we going to do with them? Pack our bags full of lx)oks and try to write three term papers, read a few hundred pages of German, and out-line several chapters of education? Or will we go to the other extreme—sleep all morning, loll around and gossip all a f t e i -

noon, and go out every evening? If we wish, we can make our vacation a restful , useful, and

also a thoroughly enjoyable one. A little study seems to be a necessity and it will keep us in practice. We can read a couple of those good books tha t we haven t found time to read before. It will not be necessary for us to take in every show in town, but one good picture or a good play may be quite uplifting and entertaining as well. Then there are the social obligations tha t we must fill but we can easily avoid

spending too much time in tha t way. You see, if we are not careful we'll l)e coming back here

for a rest a f t e r vacation. While if we take good care of our-selves and our time during the vacation we'll come back filled with new energy and pep and we'll be able to finish up the

semester 's work in good style.

Now, since Hope College has or-

ganized a Poe t ry Club, we t hough t

it would be in te res t ing to know

what has been done by fo rmer stu-

dents in th is line of endeavor.

Among var ious samples , we have

selected a poem by Mr. Johannes

De Beer, f o rmer ly of Baileyville,

Illinois, ent i t led " A f t e r Death." Mr.

De Beer, while at college, p re fe r r ed

lo wr i te a poem and read it before

the class r a the r than pronounce an

orat ion. Realizing his abili ty in th is

line, he was o f t en allowed this priv-

ilege by his ins t ruc tor , P ro fessor

J . 15. Nykerk , and a lways encour-

aged in his e l fo r t s in poesy. The poem presented oelow found

its way into the " N e w \ ork In-dependent ," one of the leading lit-

e ra ry magaz ines of a former day.

Here is a quota t ion anent this

m a t t e r in the May, 181(8, issue of

the Anchor : " In a recent issue of

The Independent appea r s a poem

enti t led " A f t e r Dea th ," and com-

posed by the Rev. J . De Beer of

Baileyville, Illinois. The au thor , by

this one production, has at once

placed himself among the number

of n ineteenth century poets whose

sen t iments b rea the all tha t is har -

monious, yet s imple, and has at the

same t ime reflected g rea t credit

upon our ins t i tu t ion, which he a t -

tended for a t ime, and where he

received most of his education.

A F T E R DEATH

Of silent, name les s ecstacy. T h a t came u n s o u g h t and suddenly.

With s igh And smothered cry And t e a r s — t o die, to die!

0 God, as I approach the zone

Of golden l ights about thy throne,

I come

Not dumb Through fea r , nor with a quail ing

eye! But with a deep and joyous cry

I mount a lo f t to Thee, and fly

O'er shroud And pall and cloud

With Hal le lu iahs loud!

1 feel, I AM more than a clod

T h a t clung upon thy sandals , God—

Than e a r t h !

My bir th W a s f rom thy lips. Brea th of thy

brea th . Life of t hy l ife, t ha t knows not

death, Thy child, indeed—my spir i t sa i th .

And cl ings To" thee, and br ings

Its filial ofTerings. My Fa the r , tho a while estrangec

From thee, thy love is all un-

changed!

And lo,

I go Into thy "presence without fea rs , To see Thy face no more through

tears ,

To dwell with Thee, through end-

less years

With Thee,

Whose love for me

Was proved on Calvary!
