Smoking banned in Van Wylen

by Pam Lundberg assistant news editor Smoking has been banned from Van Wylen Library starting last Wednesday.

The staff of Van Wylen library, along with input from s o m e students, decided to ban smoking from the lobby a r e a . This decision. therefore, bans smoking anywhere in the library The permanent library staff has received complaints f r o m n o n - s m o k e r s . These nonsmokers feel that the only a r e a where they can go to eat or drink in the library is being taken over by the smokers.

Damage has been done to Van Wylen Library by smoke and cigarette butts. The lobby and t h e e n t r a n c e of H o p e ' s multimillion dollar library smells of smoke constantly.

Elaine Cline, Associate Director of Libraries, supports this decision. She feels that it is acceptable and fair because it goes along with the campus-wide policy of no smoking in most buildings other than dorms.

Another factor in this decision is the fact that Van Zceren is

smoke-free Since Van Zoeren and Van Wylen a r e connected, the decision to m a k e Van Wylen smoke-free promotes consistency in r e g u l a t i o n s r e g a r d i n g smoking.

"Actually students brought i the problem) to the s t a f f ' s attention Students complained about the smoking," says Cline.

Freshperson Kaya Ikuma. a nonsmoker commented, "I would've put my personal opinion against those who smoke, but if they want to study bad enough, they can live without a cigarette."

Another non-smoker freshperson Tim Johnston is very happy with the decision because he hates smoke. He feels a smoking room is needed, but going outside is an acceptable solution.

Smokers a r e not a s pleased with the decision.

Amy Somers is very unhappy with the ban on smoking. She feels that this is very unfair because, "just because one person burns something, it doesn't mean everyone should s u f f e r . " Somers r e f e r s to burn d a m a g e from cigarettes to furniture in the lobby.

Somers understands the rights of non-smokers, but there a r e few places where smokers can smoke as opposed to other colleges. This decision will prevent her from using the library.

Layne Hammond understands *vhere the college is coming from, but is still unhappy and feels that it is unjust. He feels that his rights a r e being infringed upon.

Sophomore s m o k e r , Ingrid Felten, is disgusted. She feels that "these types of regulations oppress and reduce understanding of the s m o k e r . " Felten explained in the 50s smoking was socially accep table, but in the health-conscious 90s, it is not. She feels that because of this, her rights a r e infringed upon.

Of those informally spoken to it seems most people a g r e e that a s m o k i n g l o u n g e is n e e d e d somewhere in the library. But since this decision was studentsuggested, the concensus of the library staff is that most people a r e happy with it. The library staff is still open to c o mme n ts .

News Minority enrollment levels unequal Jon O'Brien staff writer Many national studies have indicated that the enrollment in 1969 of minority students is below that of enrollment figures for 1976.

Hope College's figures show no exception.

"The Hope College student population is overwhelmingly middle class and white," reported November's Steering Committee report.

H ope' s e n r o l l m e n t r e c o r d s show that the minority population decreased between 1976 and 1986, from 3 percent of the student body to 2.5 percent of the student body.

In the y e a r 1989 the percentage of minorities rose slightly to 3.7 percent.

This percentage includes four minority groups; blacks, Asian or Pacific Islander, Hispanic, and American Indian or Alaskan Native. The statistics do not include the non-resident (foreign exchange) students.

In 1976, Hope had a 1.4 percent black population, .4 percent Asian or Pacific Islander, 1.2 percent Hispanic and 0.0 percent American Indian. In 1989, the population of minorities consisted of 1.08 percent Black, .97 p e r c e n t Asian or P a c i f i c Islander, 1 37 percent Hispanic, and .32 percent American Indian or Alaskan Native.

Hope graduates between 400 and 500 students a year, but the number of minorites graduating is declining. In 1976, there was a graduating class of 437. A ninth of t h e s e s t u d e n t s w e r e minorities.

In 1989. t h e graduating class was 512 and only 5 were minority students.

According to the Steering Committee report, "The inclusion of hispanics, blacks, and other minorities is important to provide a 'real world' environment

at Hope, a better way of preparing our g r a d u a t e s for their lives beyond college," Hope's Dean of Multicultural Life, Alfredo Gonzales commented on what Hope College may be doing to increase the minority presence on c a m p u s , "According to my knowledge, Hope has not had a specific policy set to enroll x amount of students."

While a d d r e s s i n g some misconceptions about minority enrollment a t Hope, Gonzales commented on the idea that minority s t u d e n t s at Hope receive a receive a special financial aid p a c k a g e as incentive for coming to Hope.

He said, " T h e r e is an equal treatment of all students. Their aid is based on financial need only. Hope has 84 percent of the student body receiving financial aid. It just comes down to the fact that our c a m p u s is just not informed in this a r e a .

The minority students come f r o m different backgrounds of which many students do not totally mderstand."

Another misconception that students m a y have is that Hope s minorities go to special classes and have other special p r o g r a m s because they a r e lazy and not intellectual.

"That is an unfair assessment of the m i n o r i t y s t u d e n t at Hope,"Gonzales said. We a r e a private institution that has very hard working students across the board."

"Many students do not feel that there is a need for the presence of minority students." said Gonzales. In fact, he said, some students believe the community life at Hope is fine the way it is.

Others a r e indifferent to the issue.

"In fact, our minority students a r e not really embraced by the entire college c o m m u n i t y , " said

Gonzales.

Commenting on s o m e racial incidents (like verbal slurs) on campus last s e m e s t e r , Gonzalez said he thought m a n y of them were just verbal misunderstandings, but that could not be said for all of the reported incidents.

Gonzales added that " a lot of times people a r e perceived to be racist when really they a r e clashing becuase they a r e not talking or they a r e uninformed about the issues. There is not a single description for white or black or any other minority students. The college (Hope) has many labels. We must a s a comm u n i t y o v e r l o o k t h e s e differences. We must work with the faculty and students to communicate and talk about the problems."

Joseph O'Grady, a white Hope junior and Upward Bound tutor said, " I think that the minority students on c a m p u s need to express themselves. They need to have an identity all their own.

They should not be forced to be like myself or any other m a j o r i t y group. However, I don't feel that the college or the student body gives them that option."

"As a Christian community, we should be concerned to assist a l l o u r s t u d e n t s in b e i n g knowledgeable and caring toward people of different ethnic backgrounds," stated the Steering Committee.

"Are we preparing students for life?" Gonzales asked. "No, we a r e not.

We should h a v e multicultural opportunities on campus available to any student who wants to p a r t i c i p a t e . " "We a r e making progress but we need to do so much more by the fall of 1990. It is hard. People say that we live in a very conservative community, but in the late 60s and early 70s there were over 100 minority (students) on cam pus," said Gonzales.

At Alvernia College, a small Catholic college in Reading, Penn., administrators edited the student handbook over the summer to delete passages ensuring collegians "the right to freedom of expression without prejudice" and to add a passage making the Alvemian, the student paper, the "official campus newspaper."

The designation clarified that Alvernia itself published the paper, and consequently had the right to determine what it does and does not publish.

On some campuses, officials have used their publisher status to try to keep their students from reading ads for condoms.

In Milwaukee, for example, Marquette University forbade d i s t r i b u t i n c o p i e s of CV Magazine inside issues of the Marquette Tribune, noting that someone had already distributed copies at off-campus sites and

CAN TELL i

.. ^o...

When we leave for college, we a r e told that we a r e going to p r e p a r e ourselves for life in the real world. Yet here at Hope a least in relation to minority population, this isn't the c a s e While it is true that minority enrollment has been in decline through the past decade, Hope's minority enrollment has never been sigmficanty large. Hope has taken action lately to help inc r e a s e the minority enrollment, which seems to have done some good as the statistics show the minority enrollment for 1989 rose slightlv.

r

w ' ! % 4,

vt 1* f V M

v.

Thi question remains, however, is the college doing enough to recrui ninorities. Even with the increase, the minority population at Hope is only 3.7 percent. With numbers like this, one has to wonder if the admissions office is doing all they can to help improve the situation.

Of course the ultimate decision of whether a student will attend Hope or not belongs to that particular student. So if the c a m p u s does not appeal to the student, they will likely not attend that particular school. This brings up the question of whether the low minority enrollment is because of poor recruiting, or is it that the c a m p u s does not appeal to minorities.

This cetainly could be the case. With so low a minority population, one must wonder if that has anything to do with the decision of some minority students to attend Hope.

Of course, we must also wonder what it is about our c a m p u s that doesn t appeal to minority students. Is it because the enrollment for minorities is low? Or could it be something m o r e serious like the c a m p u s attitude toward minority students. According to Alfredo Gonzales Hope s Dean of Multicultural Life, p a r t of the problem is m a t the college in general is not informed in this a r e a .

Gonzales said there had been several racial incidents on c a m p u s last semester Does this m e a n Hope is a racist c a m p u s ? It could, but it also might mean that Hope students just a r e n ' t s u r e how to act towards the minority community at Hope There is no real excuse for either of these possible explanations, and steps should be taken to see that they a r e not the cause for fur tner incidents.

WTHS has taken steps towards helping with the problem by sponsoring a racial relations candlelight vigil. While this is certainly a step in the right direction,surely more can be done. And until we identify and educate ourselves minority students will continue to h a v e to fight for their own identities at Hope College while the rest of us h a v e to pretend w e ' r e being well prepared for the business world.

Letter to the Editor

Student disputes last editorial To the Editors: This letter is in response to your editorial about apathy at Hope. I have to question the basis for your a r g u m e n t , which as f a r as I can tell r e s t s on the low turn out to a concert as proof of this apathy. This s e e m s to be a rather broad condemnation based on a very vague generalization.

The concert. Lifeline, had a low turnout. This cannot be denied. But could there possibly be reasons why, other than a lack of concern for Women's Week at Hope or apathy in general?

I saw very little publicity for the concert. Reading through the J a n u a r y 31 issue of the anchor, I saw no mention of it at all; neither as an article nor as an advertisement. I did happen to see mention of it in the 44 Where of Hope," but his is not the most widely read of the c a m p u s ' literature and it is not what most students plan their F r i d a y nights around.

There were also at least two fraternity rush dances that night.

These were rather important events for those involved and may have affected their plans. I am sure that there were other events of equal importance which also drew students away from the concert.

Finally, I would like to point out the coverage of the Lifeline concert in the February 7 issue of the anchor. It is practically nonexistent. With the exception of

your editorial and a 6 , , x 4 " a r t i c l e (without photos) on the last p a g e of news, there is nothing. (There is, however, a very nice c e n t e r page photo spread on F a n t a s i a . ) As to the apathy at Hope. I have to a r g u e with this. I h a v e been a part of two c u r r e n t events discussions put on by the History Honors Society a n d the Political Science Honors Society, both of which were standing room only from beginning to end. The anchor h a s published a n u m b e r of articles showing c a m p u s groups doing service projects around the area (the Hope College Republicans and Arcadian F r a t e r n i t y . ) Also, the keynote speaker for Women's Week, of which we a r e so apathetic, spoke to another capacity crowd. In fact, they turned people a w a y a t the door. There a r e active groups

for Amnesty International, the environment, and even the neu Hope Students for Choice group I m a y not a g r e e with all of the positions taken by these groups, but I find it hard to call them apathetic.

In v i e w of all of these achievements, especialh in the last year. I think it is time for The anchor to pay attention to what it has written in the past and to watch its own coverage of such events a s the Lifeline con cert. It w a s n ' t W o o d s t c k , to be sure, and even The anch * had a hard time finding someone lo take pictures of this great event It would a p p e a r that we were not the only ones looking forward to F a n t a s i a that weekend.

Sincerely.

Opinion 'Over-generalized' editorial becomes To the editor: I a m a woman. I also consider myself s o m e w h a t of a liberal, which is to say slightly left of the m a i n s t r e a m conservative trend abounding a t Hope. Given that, those prone to sticking others in to stereotypical slots might consider m e a likely candidate to attend the functions of Women's Week, such as the Lifeline concert held F r i d a y night, F e b r u a r y 2. Yet I had no interest in attending that particular function.

Does this m e a n that I have no interest in the abilities and talents of women, or that 1 fail to even acknowledge the fact that those abilities and talents exist?

I don't think so. I think the real issue is that I had already m a d e plans for that particular evening, and I had no desire to see a concert, be it a group of four women or of four men, or a random intermingling of the two.

Yet somehow, somehow, according to last issue's editorial, 44 Life is m o r e than just a g a m e , " failing to show up for that conc e r t c a t e g o r i z e s m e a s an "apathetic** h u m a n being lacking a sufficient show of concern for the real-life, pertinent issude occuring outside of my sheltered

existence h e r e at Hope. I a m only just a little bit offended. I would have casually forgotten how my eyes narrowed f r o m indignity if the editorial's w r i t e r had m a d e reference to a g r e a t m a j o r i t y of Hope students, instead of ALL of Hope students who 4 'prefer to live for the here and now." In that case, I would have, a little self-righteously, and perhaps incorrectly, considered myself the small minority in exception. Yet it was Hope, and all of Hope, implying every single one of its students who a r e 4 4 just cogs in a m a c h i n e . " It's (supposedly) ALL of the students at Hope who don't have their priorities straight.

Well, let m e ask this, what exactly a r e the right priorities?

And why do any priorities I might hold a u t o m a t i c a l l y become skewed because I don't attend one concert? Is caring about the world a good priority to have? I can accept that -- in fact, I wholly support it - and I got the impression that you, the writer of the editorial, feel the s a m e .

However, I disagree with your method of judging whether or not I, or anybody else, holds that priority to be important. It appears as though because the

Students face misrepresentation Dear Editors, In response to the article in the anchor on F e b r u a r y 7 on the proposal to restrict off-campus housing, we feel that a variety of factors a r e being ignored.

The students a t this college already suffer gross m i s r e p r e s e n t a t i o n in a d ministrative m a t t e r s . A p r i m e example is t h e fact that there a r e three student representatives on the Residential life Committee as opposed to the four administrative m e m b e r s . This fact m e a n s that even if all of the student r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s vote together on a n issue, the faculty still has veto power over our desires, a s if this institution w e r e some sort of totalitarian s t a t e r a t h e r than a place of higher education.

We a r e treated a s a minority, a body of mindless children, r a t h e r than a group of responsible >oung adults that we a r e . We come h e r e to learn, to grow, to become functional m e m b e r s of society. Yet instead of an env i r o n m e n t f o s t e r i n g development of personal values and ethics, nurturing individual growth, we find ourselves in a closed-minded v a c u u m where personal choice falls to the way de a s restriction steals f r r 4 us our dignity and selfe jem.

large majority of students w e r e absent from the Lifeline concert, you automatically interpret that as though we have no interest in anything. Have you forgotten about the great number of peole that do show up for biology seminars, chemistry seminars, presentations in the Great P e r f o r m a n c e S e r i e s , a n d Bible discussion groups? Have you forgotten that there a r e students busy volunteering their time a s Young Life leaders, a s Big B r o t h e r s or Big Sisters, or visiting nursing homes? Did you ignore the fact that other events from Women's Week, such a s the poetry reading and the presentation on women in advertising, were jam-packed? And did you realize that during the week of the Lifeline concert, there w e r e no less than thirty-six other special activities occuring on c a m p u s (accorting to The Where of Hope College calendar) ?

Given the broad r a n g e of events and the relatively small number of students on c a m p u s , I think it is a slight m i r a c l e that most activities receive as high a turnout as they do.

Has it been thought about to

offensive

p r a i s e t h e v i r t u e s of Hope students, instead of to hone down on one s m a l l b l e m i s h a n d magnify it in the light of the world? It's like this; every day, hundreds of jet planes take off and land, and not a single one of them crashes. The ground crew and technicians don't get applauded for this, but a r e merely taken for granted. Then several months pass, one plane somewhere over India crashes, and the entire world is nervously discussing it by dinnertime. We all f u m e at how the controllers could have been so careless, and wonder if air travel really is s a f e anymore. If our days were continually interrupted by reports of every successful take-off and landing, we might begin to get the idea that there a r e quite a few successes a m i d s t the m o r e noticeable failures.

I a m not, by any stretch of the imagination, or by any warped i n t e r p r e t a t i o n , a t t e m p t i n g to give the views of every student at Hope College. I a m merely responding with how I feel, assuming that there a r e a few others out there who share my views, and quite a few others who don't.

The anchor welcomes all comments and letters a n d reserves

I a g r e e with most of the points m a d e in last week's editorial.

There probably a r e a great number of Hope students who don't c a r e about too much else other than that which occurs between Columbia a n d Central Avenue. Yet at the s a m e time, there a r e those who do. I hope I can take the liberty of speaking for them and for myself when I say that I r e g r e t being lumped into one m a s s stereotypical group and subsequentially labeled as an apathetic and uncaring cog, capable only of getting riled up for a basketball g a m e or Fantasia, and who's life extends little beyond that.

And now. Wade, a s i've noticed that you've often ised letters to the editor in the pc.st a s sounding boards for your cartoon, and how last week you seemed a little out of fresh ideas for something to satirize, please feel f r e e to rip my letter a p a r t (not a s if I needed to give you my permission, though). I would be greatly honored. And if not, such is life.

Have fun. Go for it. And r e m e b e r - limits exist only in t h e mind.

P e r h a p s the most distressing aspect of this issue is the administration's e m p h a s i s on the financial benefits to the college of increasing on-campus housing. It a p p e a r s that the true reason for the founding of Hope College has been lost in the frenzy to increase m o n e t a r y gain. Is this place an educational institution or a m e a n s of obtaining maximum profit?

We, the students, deserve to have our concerns and personal rights to freedom addressed. We a r e the lifeblood of this college without us, this institution could not exist a t all. And what do we receive in r e t u r n for our attendance, for our tuition? We get disregarded and treated as secondary concerns.

This proposal is offensive to our pride, and to our needs. The m e r e suggestion that this college should dictate to a student above the level of sophomore w h e r e they can live is an a f f r o n t to the goals of higher education. Where will it end, we ask?

Dress Codes? Administrative censors h i p of p e r s o n a l r e a d i n g material? Video monitors in our rooms? Is this 1984 revisited?

S o m e p e o p l e call t h i s procrastination. 1 p r e f e r to call it strategic planning.

You see with procrastination, Smelling the roses you're putting something off continually. With s t r a t e g i c planning, you put something off until it absolutely has to be done, then you do it. You don't complain about having to do it, or that it isn't fair because you've a l r e a d y been using your f r e e time to have fun, It's real easy at this time of and you've known since the It s starting to build up again.

All the homework that should year to get all absorbed in study- beginning of the week on what have been done before; all the ing, and forget about all the other night this particular assignment responsibilities that h a v e been things that a r e going on a r o u n d would get done. This way you've neglected so far through the you. 1 know I've had it happen to planned when you're going to do semester. We're coming to the m e several times. You get all the assignment, and hopefully point where all this stuff is finally stressed out worrying about the (in theory at least) you'll be in going to h a v e to get done. Some test you have coming up on Fri- the right f r a m e of mind to do a how, some way. Because it's get- day and forget about having good job when the t i m e comes.

The reason that this system ting near the time for mid-terms, some fun, or even getting a good works is because t h e r e is thought the point where you inevitably night's sleep.

I usually don't have much of a put into it. In the c a s e of propay the piper for w h a t e v e r it is that you should h a v e done, but problem with stress b e c a u s e 1 crastination, you simply put things off because you don't feel r e f u s e to let i m m a t e r i a l things did not quite get to.

Holland Community production held over for encore laughter

UA R o r> Brad Brown guest writer

If you're looking for a good laugh and a g r e a t time, the Holland Community T h e a t r e ' s production of L a r r y Shue's comedy, "The F o r e i g n e r , " is what you s h o u l d b e d o i n g t h i s weekend. This local production is directed by Marilyn Matula with assistant director Nancy Gasper and has been held over to the weekend of F e b r u a r y 24-26, due to popular d e m a n d .

"The F o r e i g n e r " takes place in a fishing lodge in Georgia where " F r o g g y " LeSueur has come to visit his old friend Betty Meeks, who owns the resort. He brings his friend Charlie with him in an effort to cheer him up.

Charlie who lacks personality and describes himself a s a dull person who proofreads science f iction publications is frightened the thought of having to m a k e conversation with the people at r.he lodge. Charlie begs Froggy to help him out, so F r o g g y tells Betty that Charlie is a foreigner who cannot speak English.

The people living in the lodge include Rev. Lee, his fiance

Catherine Simms and her halfbrother Ellard.

Through his pretense of knowing no English, Charlie s p a r k s off a variety of m a d c a p p e d misunderstandings and hilarious circumstances.

Charlie ignites a flame fo excitement into the ordinary lives of these c h a r a c t e r s and in the process develops a personality.

Through his innocent deception, Charlie reveals greater dishonesty on the p a r t of the Reverend and his plot to re-organize the Ku Klux Klan. When discovered of his c r i m e s in the ending, he responds that his reasoning for keeping his involvement a secret was because, "I was going to surprise y o u ! " A prevailing theme of racial u n d e r s t a n d i n g can be interpreted through this assault of laughter.

The best scene occurs near the end of the second act. Charlie finds himself in a predicament when Froggy informs the inhabitants of the lodge that the foreigner is a great teller of stories in his native land. Charlie then must m a k e up a story for the f a m i l y which ends up

resembling the tale of "Little Bunny Foo Foo".

He uses a variety of languages and expressions and an assortment of word a r r a n g e m e n t s that turn out to be a hysterical story which Betty interprets to be about a tractor.

The acting in this play is especially good for a community production. A variety of g r e a t talent showed up for auditions.

Anthony Cedeno does a s u p e r b job a s Charlie, the foreigner. Anthony's facial expressions bring in a m a j o r i t y of the laughs, and he knows his c h a r a c t e r well.

Playing the part of the prejudiced Reverend is Hope College's very own E r i c Kilbourn.

Eric is a senior at Hope, a computer science m a j o r who brings out the underlying slyness of the outwardly honest reverend.

E l l a r d , p l a y e d by K e v i n Calkins, is mentally slow and brings in a lot of side-splitting humor with his mininterpreted antics. The p a r t of Catherine played by Erica Carlson w a s a little lacking, however.

Catherines's role should h a v e been understood a little better and given to someone with m o r e energy.

Roberta and George K r a f t performed musical selections of Lerner and Loewe: Broadway's Last Romantics before a captive audience of Hope alumni and local community m e m b e r s .

The event highlighted a luncheon Saturday that w a s part of Hope's Winter Happenings.

Mr.Kraft sang n u m b e r s f r o m the collaborators' most famous musicals, " B r i g a d o o n , " " P a i n t Your Wagon," "My F a i r L a d y , " "Gigi" and " C a m e l o t , " while Mrs.Kraft accompanied him on piano. Between numbers, Mr.Kraft would give the audience highlights and anecdotes "

from the c a r e e r s and lives of the famous duo.

Mr. K r a f t sang songs such as " T h e Heather on the Hill," " I ' v e Grown Accustomed to Her F a c e " and " T h a n k Heaven for Little Girls" - songs which have now almost become standards.

Highlights of the p e r f o r m a n c e were Mrs. K r a f t ' s piano solo of "I Talk to the T r e e s , " the audience joining in on "Get Me to the Church on T i m e , " and Mrs. K r a f t ' s singing debut in the humorous and always delightful duet of " I R e m e m b e r It Well."

The entertainment drew to a close with Mr. Kraft leading the audience in the old Hope College Fight Song and the Alma Mater Hymn. nyiim.

Knickerbocker movie overflows with political inuendos

by Brian P a i g e a r t s editor Unlike m a n y f a i r y stories, the movie " H u n g a r i a n F a i r y T a l e " t u r n s n i g h t m a r i s h w h e n the beautiful Maria tragically dies and leaves her son s e a r c h i n g for an unknown f a t h e r .

After a n e a r f a t a l e s c a p e f r o m

a u t h o r i t i e s , t h e son A n d r i s (David Vermes) travels crosscountry in flight, and m e e t s two other sympathetic s t r a n g e r s who eventually aid in helping him find a brighter future.

Full of implicit political innuendos, this film shows much of the absurdity of the communist political system before the re-

cent radical r e f o r m s in E a s t e r n Europe.

One such absurdity is derived f r o m a c t u a l H u n g a r i a n law which requires each illegitimate child to be given a f l r s e s u r n a m e which consequently leads Andris to s e a r c h for a f a t h e r that doesn't exist a f t e r all.

Shot in black and white, the

film also reveals the stark and bare reality of the pre-Glasnost communist world. The sets a r e elaborately detailed a n d the imagery is very real to life. The mixture of reality and r o m a n c e is m a s t e r f u l l y p e r f o r m e d by d i r e c t o r Gyula G a z d a g a n d resembles other recent political films such a s Wim Wender's

"Wings of Desire".

Full of sophisticated political messages woven delicately into an adventurous theme this " f a i r y t a l e " leaves it's viewer with something more than popcorn in his lap a f t e r the viewing.

'Heart Condition' dies trying to piease everyone's tastes

by Jim Monnett co-editor R a c i s m , car chases, gun fights, phallic jokes and heart transplants do not add up to a good movie in " H e a r t Condition" Writer and director J a m e s D. P a r r i o t t m i x e d too m a n y elements of popular movies together in an attempt to please too many different types of the people. The result is a poorly edited movie that can never decide if it's a cop-buddy movie, a serious m u r d e r story or a drama about race relationships.

The story starts off with a drug orgy which is soon followed by a violent c a r chase between burned out cop Bob Hoskins and rich, chic criminal lawyer Denzel Washington.

The beginning isn't remotely funny. Hoskins quickly obliterates any m e m o r i e s of the detective in "Who F r a m e d Roger Rabbit" a s his anti-black prejudices bubble over in his obsenity peppered language.

Later that first night, Hoskins has a h e a r t a t t a c k while

condition" a r e when Parriott is best with his directing and editing. The hospital scene when Hoskins first learns that he has a black heart in him is one of those truly memorable comic scenes on a par with the o r g a s m scene in " W h e n H a r r y Met S a l l y . " Hoskins is awoken from surgery by four police buddies singing an o b s c e n e d e r i v a t i o n of t h e 'notown classic "1 Can't Get 'iack to You ' with a prominent phallic symbol.

Unlortunately, the comic moments a r e s e p a r a t e d by a straight cop movie about drugs and violence. The two don't mix like they did for Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines in 1986's "Running Scared."

Just to keep things interesting, or so P a r r i o t t m i g h t h a v e thought, there is also a love triangle between Washington, Hoskins and a white prostitute woodenly played by Chloe Webb.

It doesn't add much to the movie except some boring speeches about interrace relationships.

Overall the violence sinks the movie and buries the good social criticisms on racism and learnThe comic moments of " H e a r t ing about other people.

Washington is murdered. Cut to the hospital where Hoskins has received Washington's h e a r t , and is none too happy with a " b l a c k " h e a r t in his body Washington isn't too happy having been m u r d e r e d Now Hoskins is the only one who can see and talk with Washington. As they s e a r c h for Washington's m u r d e r e r . Washington mocks Hoskin s s t e r e o t y p e s a b o u t blacks showing how stupid they really are.

On this level the movie has some worth. Hoskins' prejudices are s t e r e o t y p i c a l and Washington's constant mockery of them show the audience how absurd bigotry is.

Washington does a good job with his p a r t . His c h a r a c t e r is three dimensional and stands in stark contrast to Hoskins burnedout cop that has been done by a hundred other actors before him.

When Washington drops into one of Hoskins' black stereotypes, Washington shows the comic flair that brought him critic approval in Robert Townsend's "Hollywood Shuffle" in 1987.

Superior acting drives Miss Daisy to Academy Awards

by Stephen D. Kaukonen ad m a n a g e r "Driving Miss Daisy," a film based on Alfred Uhry's Pulitzer P r i z e - w i n n i n g p l a y , is a delightful story about a n elderly, proud, very irritable Southern Jewish woman, playedby Jessica Tandy, and her " c h a u f f e u r , " a patient, instinctively wise black m a n , p l a y e d by M o r g a n F r e e m a n , and the friendship which develops between the two.

The story begins in the late 1940s when Miss Daisy no longer is capable of driving herself around, and so her son, played by Dan Aykroyd, hires Hobe, a retired, black, milk-truck driver, to be her chauffer without her consent.

The first months a r e very difficult for everyone, as Miss Daisy vehemently opposes the arrangement, and hesitates to accept the fact that she is in-

competent when it comes to d n v ing.

The valiant efforts of Hobe to win her acceptance seem to go for naught. But his patience and persistance begin to pay off as she finally concedes, and allows him to escort her around town.

However, Miss Daisy continues to have a chip on her shoulder, and does not cease the constant criticism of everything Hobe does, despite the good and innocent intentions of his actions.

The acting in this movie was c u t s t a n d i n g , with Morgan F r e e m a n ' s portrayal of Hobe leading the way. The witty and patient c h a r a c t e r of Miss Daisy's chauffer was depicted m a g n i f i c e n t l y by F r e e m a n .

Jessica Tandy's portrayal of a h a r d - t o - p l e a s e , s t u b b o r n old woman w a s equally commendable.

Dan Aykroyd's acting was

noteworthy also, playing a h a r d working businessman and mother-pleasing son.

The plot of the movie was somewhat of a let down, as nothing really culminated into anything big. Just the developing of the friendship between Miss Daisy and Hobe. The scenery was beautiful, the music appropriate, and there was a fair amount of humor, mainly stemming from Hobe's r e m a r k s .

Civil rights lawyer Ian McKenzie (Marlon Brando) agrees to investigate the mysterious death of Benjamin du Toit's (Donald Sutherland) black gardener in MCMTs "A Dry White Season," which marks the first film appearance by Brando since 1980.

'A Dry White Season' comes to Knickerbocker In conjunction with the Critical Issues Symposium, the Knickerbocker Theatre will be showing the critically acclaimed film "A Dry White Season." The film, based on the novel by Andre Brink, follows the conversion of white school teacher Benjamin du Toit (Donald Sutherland) f r o m apathy towards apartheid to outright a n g e r against it. The film also f e a t u r e s Marlon Brando in his Academy Award nominated supporting role. This is Brando's first film role since 1980 "A Dry White Season" will be playing Feb. 28 and March 1 at 4 p . m . ; March 2 at 7 and 9:15 p.m.; and March 3 at 1 p.m. Ticket prices for students a r e $3.

Hope College faculty and staff can also get in for the special price of $3 for this film only. Please show I.D.

"Driving Miss Daisy" is a good wholesome movie to take the family to go see, and one which is recommended for its superior acting. There a r e no really big shocks in the plot which m a k e s the movie easy to follow and is entertaining and delightful at the s a m e time. If you watch the Academy Awards tonight, I a m sure you will h e a r this line at least a few times, "And the winner is..'Driving Miss Daisy'."

The winner of both the men and the women's meet was not determined until the final event the 400 freestyle relay. The women had to take at least second to win the meet. They did one better.

Hope Junior Cristy Vredevelt started the r a c e and passed off the lead to t e a m m a t e Senior Lynn Massey, who stretched Hope's lead to half of a pool's

length. J a n i Mitchell, a sophomore, kept the lead through the third leg of the r a c e Senior Elizabeth Becker finished the race for Hope coming in almost 25 y a r d s a h e a d of the nearest Kalamazoo t e a m for a time of 3:51.49.

The men had to place either first or second and third in the 400 freestyle relay to w n the meet Senior Matt Dahl, s w a m the first leg and brought the men to a lead by barely one length of a person.

The second team for Hope finished third with a time of 3:28.77.

For the women a f t e r the first five events, Hope held a lead 60-33, but Kalamazoo swept the one m e t e r diving pulling the score closer.

The women also set some records and m a d e some qualifying times during the meet.

Lori Gano set a new Hope record in the 50 freestyle a t 25.27 seconds shaving 23 hundredths of a second off of the previous record of 25.50 seconds.

Gano also led the 400 medley

The women's 400 medley relay team broke the pool record of 4:16.15.

Also setting a pool record in the 20u individual medley was junior Jilanne Bannink with a time of 2:18.17 s e c o n d s . In t h e 200 breaststroke, freshperson Erica Hansen broke the pool record with a time of 2:38.27.

Both the m e n ' s a n d the women's t e a m s rallied around the pool for the entire meet, waving towels, pounding on the canoe to spark enthusiasm and yelling with the packed stands.

There ^rere two key turning points in the m e n ' s meet.

The first was when Hope swept the 100 freestyle with Sotok winning with a time of 48.91 seconds.

This gave the lead back to Hope with the score 78-69.

The other key r a c e was when Jim Mitchell and Bob Brown took first and second respectively in the one m e t e r diving. This gave Hope the lead of 102-99 which they did not relinquish.

Mitchell had three dives scoring at least a six and one half from each judge, with one judge giving a seven and one half.

Starting the m a t c h for Hope was B r i a n P i e t e n p o l , W a r d Holloway, Todd Hibelink, D a v e Maclntyre, Mike Gibson and Kurt Slater.

Play started slow with both teams unable to maintain control of the serve. Hope was the first on the board and held the lead most of the first g a m e .

Long rallies were typical as Hope had to fight for every point.

During one long rally, Maclntyre set a short set to Gibson who laid down a spike for a point.

The extra effort paid off for Hope, especially at the net.

Slater gave the extra push and eventually put the point winning spike down.

With the score 14-7 in Hope s favor, they committed two service faults in a row before Slater put the ball over the net. Grand Valley State let the ball drop thinking it was out, but it was good and Hope won the first

g a m e 15-7.

GVS didn't let the defeat get them down and c a m e out for the second g a m e m o r e organized and with better communication At one point, GVS scored seven straight points to m a k e the score 12-6. GVS won the second g a m e 15-8.

Determined not to let the match slip away, Hope got fired up and started the third g a m e with Maclntyre serving an ace.

This boosted their enthusiasm, but GVS c a m e back and scored the next five point. E r i n Boyd struggled with his spikes, but m a d e some key blocks when

Hope needed it.

Hope lost the third game 15-6.

The fourth g a m e was do or die for Hope and they did, starting with the first five points. GVS tied the g a m e at eight a piece and Hope rallied for the next four of five points making the score 12-9.

GVS once again tied the g a m e up, but this time a t 14-14. Pietenpol pulled Hope out of the j a m by scoring the last two points.

G a m e five decided the m a t c h and Hope started out on top, but soon found themselves down eight to four. With the score nine to seven, Hope's bench w a s on

their knees cheering their teamm a t e s on as well a s helping to m a k e calls.

After GVS scored the next three points, Hope s U r t e d their comeback, which included Slater pounding a floater to m a k e the score 12-11 in GVS's favor.

Senior E r i c Lundquist was on a roll and scored sue straight points for Hope. With the momentum in their favor, Hope defeated GVS 15-12 in the last g a m e to win the match.

" ^ ou see, when you have a loft, •no one expects you to be able to m a k e your bed. Making a bed in a loft is m o r e like a twenty -minute workout, and well, let's face if. you could get the s a m e

thing at the Dow and meet m o r e guys (or gals) there.

And what's better is that a loft , a great storage unit. If the room gets too messy, send your mess flying up into the loft Voila! In a m a t t e r of moments, your mess has been changed into a neat and somewhat organized room (It's organized in the sense that you know where everything is -- in your loft!).
