Record of First Semester To Be Completed January 19-23

by Diane Roskamp

by J i m Vander Lind Hope College has a new addition to its campus in the form of a huge s k a t i n g rink f o r the students. The rink was the idea of Tim Vander Mel, intramural mana g e r f o r the school.

Vander Mel, coming upon the idea several weeks ago, saw it become a reality J a n u a r y 9 as action began. Mr. Rein Visscher, business m a n a g e r f o r the school, hired a local bulldozing agency to clear an a r e a approximately two hundred by two hundred and fifty feet. The new rink is located on the school's i n t r a m u r a l field.

"A problem f a c i n g us a t the moment is where to hold the Sing," commented Miss Wiersma.

Holland Civic Music Association will present the third musical event of the season on Tuesday, J a n u a r y 20th a t 8 p.m. The concert will f e a t u r e the National Artists Symphonette, a distinguished ensemble of first chair players drawn f r o m many m a j o r orchest r a s of the country.

William Haaker, the conductor, has enjoyed a career as both pianist and conductor, having t h e experience of multiple t o u r s in both capacities in The Netherlands, Canada, Mexico and Cuba as well as the United States. In f a c t the tours have earned him the unofficial title of "Musical Knight E r rant."

The piano soloist, Spanish-born Amparo Iturbi, h a s also appeared before every s t a t e of the Union as well as Europe and Latin America, records f o r RCA Victor, and has performed in motion pictures, on radio and television. She will play "Rhapsody in Blue," "Grieg Rono Concerto," and "Siegfried Idyll" as well as others.

Also f e a t u r e d will be various instrumental combinations—concertos, s t r i n g q u a r t e t s , woodwind quartets, in addition to f u l l orchestral works.

Community Council Formed to Better Hope-Town Relations Announcement of the formation of a Holland Community Council f o r Hope College composed of t h i r t y business and professional men in and around the Holland a r e a w a s made by Dr. Irwin J .

Lubbers, president of Hope College, yesterday.

"The council," Dr. Lubbers reported "is to work out a program so t h a t the community of Holland h a s an organized voice in the affairs of Hope College."

Elected chairman of t h e committee w a s F r a n k Kleinheksel whose f a t h e r w a s a t one time a math professor a t Hope. Vice-chairman is Mrs. Helena Winter.

Serving as secretary is J e r r y Kruiff, public relations director a t Hope.

The record we leave behind is not easily forgotten. We tied with two o t h e r colleges f o r the conference championship in football, as upperclassmen we welcomed the f r e s h m e n and saw them go through the Black River. We heard the Messiah f o r perhaps the l a s t time on our campus. We heard of another g r a n t , saw another Homecoming and witnessed another Nykerk.

If you can come up with the correct amount of your individual growth indeed you have made a careful study. F o r the rest of us, we can only guess a t how much we have learned since September. This is the half-way point f o r most of us, f o r others it is the end of college. F o r those of us who remain our chance f o r growth in the coming months is a stimulating challenge. For those of us who a r e leaving t h e Anchor wishes to t a k e this opportunity to wish you the best wherever you go.

The Anchor: Revisited " W h a t is the Anchor's editorial policy?" "Does the Anchor have an editorial policy?" These and similar questions have been addressed with increasing frequency to members of the Anchor staff lately. The Editorial Board appreciates this interest and feels t h a t an explanation of Anchor policy would now be appropriate.

The Anchor recognizes f o u r types of editorial m a t e r i a l : signed editorials, unsigned editorials, letters and polls. Signed editorials represent only the opinion of the person whose name or initials a p p e a r beneath it. Unsigned editorials represent t h e stand or official policy or attitude of the p a p e r on t h a t particular subject. To a p p e a r in the Anchor unsigned, an editorial must receive the vote of six of t h e seven students on the Editorial Board. The editor-in-chief maintains an absolute veto, however. If an editorial fails to become adopted by the paper, it may still a p p e a r ; but it then must appear signed, as it then represents only the author's feelings.

In an ideal world no one would be needed to enforce any rules, ordinances, or laws. Every individual would of his own f r e e will act as he ought. We do not now live in that kind of a world — even the "Honor Code" admits that much.

If, then, we at Hope do need enforcement of rules, why have students enforce them r a t h e r t h a n professors? Certainly it does not mean more honor f o r the Noncheater. And it makes no difference to the Cheater. Where, then, is the honor in an "Honor Code" ?

TIME TABLE

by Richard J a a r s m a One of the problems, I have discovered, on Hope's campus is this m a t t e r of t r y i n g to borrow a ciga r e t t e when your financial situation is such t h a t you haven't even got a penny f o r the candy machine in the Science Building.

W h a t can you do to fulfill your every nerve's screaming f o r lifegiving nicotine when everyone you meet on the campus is either a girl, who is not allowed to smoke, or someone who is in the same plight as y o u ?

A f t e r m a k i n g an extensive study on the thing and I blush to admit, f r o m personal experience, I have collected hundreds of ways to ask for a cigarette without actually antagonizing anyone. These have been collected in a large book all bound up in red alligator (red with e m b a r r a s s m e n t ) and can be bought f r o m me f o r $3.95 ( t h a t ' s without the s t a t e t a x ) .

J u s t so I will whet your appetite and perhaps entice you to pay me a dollar f o r the book I will here give j u s t a f e w of the m a n y ruses t h a t can be employed in asking a friend (or b e t t e r yet, a s t r a n g e r ) f o r a cigarette.

Remark v e r y innocently t h a t if someone were to offer me a ciga r e t t e I would probably accept.

The hint cannot be passed over very lightly and it is doubtful t h a t you will leave without a cigarette.

If you are offered two, don't hesitate to take both of them.

Use the blunt, f r a n k approach, which runs something like this. "I could s t a r t t a l k i n g about the E n g lish Exam, but I've only got five minutes. Got a cigarette ? " Or there's always this one which I've used myself with g r e a t success. "Since you ask me t h a t way, yes, I believe I will have a ciga r e t t e . " The obvious trick here is to m a k e the person actually believe t h a t he offered you one, and in most cases he won't have the courage to say t h a t he didn't say anything.

Also very successful is the following, "Who w a n t s to give me a cigarette t o d a y ? " (this to be addressed to a g r o u p of about five).

No one will have the h e a r t to reply t h a t he f o r one, doesn't care whether you have one or not.

If your voice isn't reliable in a crisis, you can drop your books right in f r o n t of a smoker's feet.

In stooping to pick them up he will drop t h e cigarettes which he has in his s h i r t pocket. Here is where you j u m p in to action.

Gathering u p the loose little sticks, you slyly sneak into your sleeve two or three and t h e n offer the rest to him. He'll never notice his loss, but will probably thank you no end f o r saving his cigarettes f r o m others who haven't any and quite possibly offer you one in gratitude.

These are merely a f e w of the thousands of m e a n s f o r keeping yourself in nicotine without actually spending good American money which could much b e t t e r be used f o r purchasing life-giving beefsteaks and f r a t e r n i t y pins. T r y them, and you too can enjoy unlimited peace of mind without wondering where your next cigarette will come f r o m .

I m u s t w a r n you, however, not to t r y it on me, as I shall be ready f o r you and will probably kill you without any qualms if you approach me with such sneaky intentions. If you ask me f o r a ciga r e t t e you s a y j u s t t h a t , and don't t r y to honey it over. A f t e r all, how about all those f r e e cigarettes t h a t you will get f r o m o t h e r s ?

Burning Midnight Oil Builds Up Sleep Debt; You'd Better Square Accounts After Exams Thousands of you exam-pressed students will be burning the midnight oil during the next few weeks. A f t e r w a r d s , s t a t e s an article in the J a n u a r y Reader's Digest, you should take a d a y off to sleep off your f a t i g u e .

Millions of Americans don't g e t enough sleep, t h e article says. By becoming overdrawn a t t h e sleep bank they can get into serious trouble.

To t e s t the results of prolonged sleeplessness one volunteer recently kept himself awake f o r 72 hours.

He reported these effects: he became lightheaded and detached; voices seemed to come f r o m f a r a w a y ; objects appeared to move in, then back a w a y ; he b u r s t into f r e q u e n t l a u g h t e r f o r no reason.

The effects a r e similar—though milder—says a u t h o r Theodore Irwin, when we lose even p a r t of needed sleep. E v e r y sleep cheat suffers some d a m a g e to his health.

Timing and coordination usually suffer first; t h e n h e a r i n g and vision. The amount of d a m a g e depends on the length of the sleep debt.

Most sleep cheats s t a y up f o r seemingly s t r o n g reasons—the late television show, a n exciting movie, a poker party. Some a r e "moonlighters" who hold down second jobs to pad t h e i r incomes.

But f o r others, less obvious causes a r e involved. O f t e n these are neurotic. The frenzied manabout-town, f o r example, may be t r y i n g to escape f r o m a painful reality. The stay-up-late housewife m a y be rejecting sleep because of tensions and anxieties.

F o r such persons, lack of sleep is a symbol of deeper trouble.

The amount of sleep needed v a r ies with the individual, s a y s Irwin.

To find out your own need try going to bed early enough so t h a t you'll wake up without an alarm clock. But remember to a d j u s t your sleeping time to y o u r activities. The more tired you are, the more sleep you'll neeed.

In discussing the bill, Bentley said: "This bill would amend the Code by allowing the bona fide fulltime student an additional $600 exemption and if he is married to a student they both would get the exemption. In other words, a married couple both attending college would have a $2400 exemption. I feel t h a t we should do everything possible to encourage and help our young people to go on to college. This is certainly a definite effort to help in a manner that will bring results."

Bentley went on to point out that this change in the law had been suggested to him by a number of college students. " I t is shocking to note t h a t only 50% of our nation's youngsters are finishing high school and of t h a t group only 50% attend college—and only 60% g r a d u a t e ! " Bentley added, "I am sure t h a t lack of f u n d s is an important factor in this picture."

Mid-Season Report

Ml,A,A Teams Preparing To Face Conference Rivalry

by F r i t z Kruithof Jan. 9 — A f t e r completing most of their non-league encounters, eight teams, representing the oldest small college conference in the nation, appear ready to settle down and face the vigorous challenge of conference rivalry.

With the 47th MIAA basketball season well under way, only f o u r of these eight conference teams can, at this stage, boast more wins t h a n losses.

Dutch Leading Leading the pack are the "Flying Dutchmen" f r o m Hope College.

The talent-rich defending champions have won seven s t r a i g h t since their opening overtime loss to Valparaiso. Alma, Adrian, Calvin, and Kalamazoo along with non-conference foes Indiana Central, Ohio Central, and Ball State have fallen a t the hands of the height-studded Dutch.

Snarling viciously a t their f e e t are the Calvin College "Knights."

The Barney Steen coached lads have won six of eight including three of five in the MIAA. Maturing rapidly, the young " K n i g h t s " battered down both Detroit Tech and Kalamazoo in recent outings.

With Ferris Saxton and Ron N o r t h r u p leading the way, the Alma "Scots" pushed their record over the .500 mark Wednesday night as they crushed Central Michigan. Now displaying a 7-6 ledger, the Scots have lost to Hope and Adrian in league duels, while subduing Kalamazoo, Albion, and Calvin.

The win was Hope's fifth straight in MIAA play, the 19th straight home win and the most decisive achieved this season. The Dutch now have an 8-1 season's mark.

The crowd, almost identical in size to the Calvin-Hope throng, jammed the place and wanted to be entertained and also see a winning performance. This requirement seems to be brought about by a team winning at home by one-sided scores.

And they received both in the game. The Britons, who were cochampions with Hope two years ago, just didn't have the club to cope with Hope and a f t e r the first few minutes the result was obvious.

Hope got off to somewhat of a slow s t a r t but then began to roll and in so doing demonstrated some fine passing, ball control and all around classiness.

It was the classy play and the clever maneuvers which pleased most. The crowd liked Darrell (Whitey) Beernink's dribbling through and away from the pressing Britons; the way Paul Benes planted himself under the Albion basket and picked off the defensive rebounds; the uncanny shots made f r o m off balance by Ray Ritsema; the smooth bounce passes made by W a r r e n Vander Hill into the big men or a fake, followed by a j u m p shot and the driving on the f a s t break by Jun Buursma.

There were m a n y other f e a t u r e s too as Hope continued to build the

The Britons made 19 of 79 shots for 24 per cent. They sank eight of 41 in the first half and 11 of 38 in the second half. Bill Losey led Albion with 14, nine in the second half, and Garth Richey, the most rugged Briton, followed with 13.

Each team did a fine job at the free throw line. Hope made 14 of 18 and Albion 17 of 21. Beernink missed three f o r Hope and Daryl Siedentop missed the other.

lead, which at one point with 7:42 left in the second half reached 35 points, 77-43.

Coach Russ De Vette w a s especially pleased with the performance. "It was the best we've played together this season," De Vette said. 'We played about the same at Indiana Central," he added. Hope won t h a t game, 85-69.

Benes was given the opportunity to g r a b the rebounds because of the Albion offense which drew Ritsema somewhat away f r o m the basket. Benes picked off 19 defensive rebounds, his highest f o r the season. Benes' timing on leaping f o r the rebounds was the best it has been this season. Ritsema grabbed six defensive rebounds.

Hope did not do its best shooting, hitting on 35 of 100 f o r 35 per cent. This included halves of 19 f o r 51 and 15 of 49. But De Vette retired Ritsema with 12 minutes to play in the second half, and Benes, Beernink and Vander Hill followed three minutes later.

Benes also sat out five minutes of the first half.

Hope led 20-10 at the end of the first ten-minute mark and 43-26 a t halftime. The score was 72-42 a t the next ten-minute mark.

Ritsema paced Hope with ten baskets and one f r e e shot for 21 points. He fired 24 times in the game. Among his other accomplishments were some fine blocks of would-be Briton shots as he soared up with the shooter and knocked the ball away.

Vander Hill, who hit on seven of 14 f r o m the floor, added two f r e e shots f o r 16 points while Benes sank seven of 22 f o r 14 points. Buursma hit on f o u r of
