Berry Report draws criticism

by Mary Houting A controversial report o n Holland's Mexican-American population, prepared by a graduate s t u d e n t at Michigan State University and published last November, has been met with a variety of responses which could a f f e c t the relationship b e t w e e n the college and Holland's b r o w n community.

A Survey of the Holland Spanish-Speaking Community, by Mrs. Carol W. Berry, has received mixed reactions f r o m e l e m e n t s in b o t h Holland's Anglo c o m m u n i t y and its C h i c a n o c o m m u n i t y .

T H E R E P O R T HAS o f f e n d e d m a n y t o w n s p e o p l e because they feel it is the " w o r k of an outsider looking d o w n her nose at the t o w n , " r e p o r t e d Dr. David Myers, associate professor of psychology.

According to Myers, Mrs. Berry claims she has not been one-sided

in her p r e s e n t a t i o n , but rather has been equally as honest a b o u t the C h i c a n o c o m m u n i t y as a b o u t the Anglo c o m m u n i t y .

Avery Baker, a resident of Holland and f o r m e r c h a i r m a n of the Holland H u m a n Relations Commission, is sensitive to the kind of backlash the report could generate in the c o m m u n i t y . Baker said his main c o n c e r n is the adverse effect which wide-spread publicity of the report could have on Anglo-Chicano c o m m u n i t y relations. " S o m e harm has already been d o n e , although some good can come f r o m the t h i n g , " he stated.

M Y E R S N O T E D that he also would prefer to ignore the Berry report and "gel on with doing s o m e t h i n g a b o u t some of the p r o b l e m s t o u c h e d u p o n in the report."

Authorities arrest 11 in Holland-area drug raids F o u r Hope s t u d e n t s were am o n g 11 persons a p p r e h e n d e d in t w o Holland area drug raids Feb. 13 and 14.

The raids, which involved h o m e s at 285 E. Ninth St. and 2 2 7 5 O t t a w a Beach Road, culminated a m o n t h - l o n g investigation by the Holland police force. All f o u r Hope s t u d e n t s were appreh e n d e d in the raid at the Ninth St. address, which t o o k place a b o u t 11:30 p.m. S a t u r d a y .

A c c o r d i n g to Holland police Lt. Gene Geib, a b o u t f o u r p o u n d s of marijuana, undetermined a m o u n t s of hashish, LSD and capsules, and some o b j e c t s used in administering drugs were seized in the t w o raids.

T h e Hope s t u d e n t s were arraigned in Holland district court Tuesday and Wednesday. O n e was charged with disorderly loitering, while t w o o t h e r s faced charges of disorderly loitering and possession of narcotics, and the f o u r t h was charged only with possession of narcotics. All three of those charged with possession demanded e x a m i n a t i o n to d e t e r m i n e whether sufficient evidence existed to warrant the charges.

T w o of the s t u d e n t s w h o faced possession charges were released a f t e r posting $ 5 , 0 0 0 b o n d , but the third could not furnish $ 2 , 5 0 0 and was r e m a n d e d to O t t a w a C o u n t y Jail.

T h o s e p r o b l e m s e n c o m p a s s the areas of housing, legal aid, emp l o y m e n t , cultural c o n f l i c t s with the D u t c h c o m m u n i t y , e d u c a t i o n , identity and leadership within the Spanish-speaking c o m m u n i t y itself.

" B R I E F L Y D E F I N E D , the purpose of the Extra-curricular Affairs C o m m i t t e e will be to present " o p p o r t u n i t i e s f o r developing the intellectual and moral faculties of s t u d e n t s individually and c o r p o r a t e l y within the comm u n i t y by e d u c a t i o n . " The c o m m i t t e e will be responsible to develop and maintain recreation and relaxation facilities for the college, to survey the social and cultural means of all s t u d e n t s and to apply the results of these surveys in evaluating and improving the social program, the proposal states.

F U R T H E R M O R E T H E committee will provide i n f o r m a t i o n which will aid advisors in guiding s t u d e n t s with respect to social and cultural p a r t i c i p a t i o n in the Hope community.

The m e m b e r s h i p of the Extracurricular Affairs C o m m i t t e e will be c o m p o s e d of nine s t u d e n t s , three faculty m e m b e r s and one representative f r o m the Dean of Student's Office.

THE NEW Extra-curricular A p p r o p r i a t i o n s C o m m i t t e e will " a c t on all budget requests f r o m those areas d e t e r m i n e d to be u n d e r the general category of extra-curricular activities."

The p r o p o s a l states that all extra-curricular budget requests will be s u b m i t t e d to the c o m m i t tee from which the request originates.

"This committee," stated S t u d e n t Activities C o m m i t tee co-chairman J o h n Boonstra, "will be solely responsible f o r the allocations of the f u n d s received f r o m the new s t u d e n t activities fee. It will guarantee t h a t s t u d e n t f u n d s are allocated by s t u d e n t s . " SIX S T U D E N T S WILL serve on the c o m m i t t e e along with three f a c u l t y m e m b e r s and two

consultants, one f r o m the Business O f f i c e to be a p p o i n t e d by the College Treasurer, and one f r o m the Dean of S t u d e n t ' s O f f i c e to be appointed by the Dean of Students.

The proposal will go b e f o r e the CLB Friday, Boonstra stated, and if passed will proceed to the Ad AB. " N o b o d y ' s against it," Boonstra added, " a l t h o u g h the actual funding has yet to be w o r k e d out."

AT A R E C E N T meetin g of Michigan college s t u d e n t activities directors at Grand Valley S t a t e College, Boonstra commented that the Hope College Cultural Affairs program was widely praised. " O u r social affairs program is a n o t h e r s t o r y , " Boonstra said. "With an operating budget of $ 3 0 0 0 f o r the current year, the program is e x t r e m e l y h a m p e r e d . " "By c o m b i n i n g the c u l t u r a l and social affairs of the college under the new c o m m i t t e e s , we hope to be able to place o u r social activities on a level c o m m e n s u r a t e with our cultural activities," Boonstra stated.

THE A S S E S S M E N T of the cultural activities fee next fall will give the college $ 7 3 , 0 2 7 f o r s t u d e n t activities, Boonstra acknowledged.

Currently $ 5 1 , 5 2 7 is labled f o r a p p r o p r i a t i o n s by the Extra-curricular A p p r o p r i a t i o n s C o m m i t t e e while the remaining $ 2 1 , 5 2 7 is still being negotiated, B o o n s t r a added.

T h e s t u d e n t activities fee will be used to finance all college extra-curricular organizations and activities with the e x c e p t i o n of athletic programs, and such organizations as b a n d , orchestra, choir and glee club. A p p r o p r i a t i o n s f o r these activities will be h a n d l e d through the college business office, Boonstra explained.

Excitement in Zeeland

Van Hill auctions are fun

by Eileen Ver duin Beneath the r a f t e r s of an a b a n d o n e d animal barn, a mass of h u m a n i t y is seated in church pews, their eyes fixed attentively on a raised p l a t f o r m , where a tall, red-faced figure c h a n t s c o n t i n u ously and a half-dozen of his h e n c h m e n stroll silently back and forth intently studying those b e f o r e them.

THE MEMBERS OF this audience are sitting erect, their eyes filled with tension, their h a n d s tightly gripping n u m b e r e d ping-pong paddles, their only w e a p o n s in this survival of the fittest.

Although the scene may s o u n d like a surrealistic vision of the d a m n e d at Heaven's gates, it is a common o c c u r r e n c e at 10880 Chicago Drive, Zeeland, where every Wednesday night at 6 : 3 0 Col. Gary Van Hill holds his auction.

Strange goings-on in bio lab

by David Dustin It's a p r e t t y widely a c c e p t e d fact that c h a n g e s h a p p e n every day a r o u n d the Hope c a m p u s , but rarely does o n e see a change of the type observed by senior biology m a j o r Jerry Bosscher recently.

I N V O L V E D IN AN experiment testing the e f f e c t s of methyl-mercury compounds upon small water animals of the salam a n d e r family k n o w n as axolotls, Bosscher i n t r o d u c e d small q u a n tities of m e t h y l - m e r c u r y i n t o the e n v i r o n m e n t s of several of the amphibians. Following standard e x p e r i m e n t a l p r o c e d u r e , Bosscher kept a c o n t r o l a x o l o t l u n d e r the same c o n d i t i o n s as the experim e n t a l subjects, only w i t h o u t e x p o s i n g it to m e t h y l - m e r c u r y .

Behavioral and physiological changes began a p p e a r i n g a m o n g the e x p e r i m e n t a l axolotls, but changes also began appearing in Bosscher's c o n t r o l animal!

Whereas axolotls ordinarily respirate through gills, as d o fish. the c o n t r o l a x o l o t l began surfacing to b r e a t h e .

In time, the a n i m a l ' s gills withered and disappeared altog e t h e r ; its characteristically fat tail lost weight, and the axolotl shed its skin six times. In a d d i t i o n to these changes, its color changed f r o m axolotl olive-drab to black with white and yellow s p o t s and its head shape underwent a considerable change.

R E A L I Z I N G T H A T they had s o m e t h i n g m o r e than the average axolotl by the tail, Bosscher and

He a d d e d that an a t t e m p t to pair college girls with grade school girls might be made.

Hope s t u d e n t s involved in the project may receive t w o h o u r s of credit in i n d e p e n d e n t s t u d y .

"We finally began taking p h o t o g r a p h s and tried to k e e p up with the a n a t o m i c a l c h a n g e s , " said Dr. Rieck. "We were sure we had s o m e t h i n g u n u s u a l because all c o n d i t i o n s remained the s a m e - h e was fed and his e n v i r o n m e n t (water) changed three times a week.

An a m b i t i o u s a t t e m p t at dem o n s t r a t i n g the unsuitability of present m a r i j u a n a legislation is currently being organized by (irand Valley S t a t e College student J o h n S t r u t h e r s .

S T R U T H E R S HAS LED in the f o r m a t i o n of a " N a t i o n a l Bust Day C o m m i t t e e , " the p u r p o s e of which, according to its n e w s l e t t e r , is to stop the " c u r r e n t discriminate application of m a r i j u a n a laws."* S t r u t h e r s h o p e s lo accomplish this by setting aside J u n e 5 as " N a t i o n a l Bust D a y " - a day when m a r i j u a n a users t h r o u g h o u t the country voluntarily turn themselves in to local police authorities.

If sufficient n u m b e r s do this, S t r u t h e r s h o p e s that the unrealistic and unf air n a t u r e of existing marijuana laws will be dramatically d e m o n s t r a t e d , and a " n a t i o n wide period of a m n e s t y " on the e n f o r c e m e n t of the laws will be declared.

E X P L A I N I N G WHY HE w a n t s to change the m a r i j u a n a laws, S t r u t h e r s stated that they have been " u t t e r l y w o r t h l e s s " as a d e t e r r e n t . He suggested that enf o r c e m e n t of the laws is not u n i f o r m , and t h e r e f o r e not fair.

He also indicated t h a t , because of the large n u m b e r of people w h o use m a r i j u a n a , the laws are futile f r o m a purely practical point of view. " S o c i e t y is not ready for the cost of p r o s e c u t i n g u s e r s , " he said. "It cost the state of California $ 7 2 million to p r o s e c u t e 52,000 users in 1968-about $1500 a head."

IN SPITE O F these p r o b l e m s , S t r u t h e r s e m p h a s i z e d that the "Bust Day C o m m i t t e e " is not seeking to have m a r i j u a n a legal-

ized, but merely to s t i m u l a t e an awareness of the d e f e c t s in the laws.

"We're not a d v o c a t i n g the release ol a possibly d a n g e r o u s substance we're saying that it's already been released, so now let's treat it realistically," he said. "We don't propose any precise c h a n g e s , " he a d d e d .

STRUTHERS INDICATED that his c o m m i t t e e is seeking its basic goal .of a national amnesty toward m a r i j u a n a users by several d i f f e r e n t means. "We w r o t e to the s t u d e n t newspapers at 145 colleges and universities urging them to participate in ' N a t i o n a l Bust D a y , " he said, and n o t e d that there was "a surprising response f r o m the Bible belt, meaning T e x a s and Tennessee and so forth."

He also indicated that the c o m m i t t e e plans to c o m m u n i c a t e with m o r e colleges and is " t r y i n g to solicit s u p p o r t " f r o m the legal and medical professions. He said that he was h o p e f u l of s u p p o r t f r o m the Michigan Bar Association because of the fact that that organization a d v o c a t e d the legalization of m a r i j u a n a t w o years ago.

A S K E D A B O U T the a m o u n t of local s u p p o r t the c o m m i t t e e has so far g e n e r a t e d , S t r u t h e r s said, "We haven't pushed the project m u c h here yet, but we've aroused considerable s u p p o r t on c a m p u s .

We expect a large response in the Grand Rapids area, because we think a b o u t ten per cent of the people use m a r i j u a n a . " As far as the possible response in Holland is c o n c e r n e d , S t r u t h e r s said, " H o l l a n d has a c o n s t i t u e n c y that d i f f e r s a great deal f r o m that of San Francisco. We d o n ' t expect an enthusiastic response f r o m the local c i t i z e n r y . "

Chicano study criticized

Report stirs controversy (continued from page I) m u n i t y or minority g r o u p g h e t t o , Mrs. Berry maintains that there is no real suh-cultural c o m m u n i t y to provide an a t m o s p h e r e tor positive g r o u p consciousness a m o n g the Mexican-Americans.

This, c o u p l e d with the fact that many C h i c a n o s "see themselves mainly as victims of cultural o p p r e s s i o n , " has led to a loss of cultural identity on the part ot the Brown p o p u l a t i o n . It is i m p o r t a n t that the Mexican-American comm u n i t y attain a degree of cultural awareness and pride, suggests Mrs. Berry.

One of the biggest p r o b l e m s of the Mexican-Americans is education, since an o v e r w h e l m i n g majority of C h i c a n o children never get b e y o n d j u n i o r high school. In the state of Michigan only five out of every 100 C h i c a n o y o u n g s t e r s who e n t e r kindergarten graduate f r o m high school, Mrs. Berry reveals.

T H I S IS DUE, she says, largely to the fact that their entire e d u c a t i o n a l experience has been a negative one. Academic achievement has never been e m p h a s i z e d , and many of the Spanish-speaking y o u t h have always lagged behind in school because of difficulties with language skills.

F r o m the s t a n d p o i n t of the college. Baker c o m m e n t e d that through its e d u c a t i o n a l role it can be involved in the Spanish-A mencan c o m m u n i t y . Higher Horizons, student teaching and t u t o r i n g p r o g r a m s are all beneficial in this respect, he said.

MRS. B E R R Y states in the i n t r o d u c t i o n to her p a p e r that one or her primary p u r p o s e s is to represent " t h e overall pervasive influence of religion not only u p o n the Mexican-American comm u n i t y . but u p o n the c o m m u n i t y as a w h o l e . " It is her premise that the Dutch, conservative.

Ref o r m e d and Christian R e f o r m e d mentality of the Holland comm u n i t y is largely responsible for the plight of its Latin residents.

P r o t e s t a n t Calvinistic theology e m p h a s i z e s the h e r e a f t e r rather than the present and fulfilling m a n ' s spiritual needs rather than his physical needs. Also, aid to the needy is of more of an obligatory tithing nature than the p r o d u c t of true Christian love. T h u s , says Mrs. Berry, the m a j o r i t y of Holland's Anglo residents have expressed little or n o desire to help their Latin neighbors. She maintains, however, that Holland does have a social conscience, however latent it may be.

IN T H E C O N C L U S I O N of her paper Mrs. Berry r e c o m m e n d s the establishment of a Latin-American Council in the Holland area and increased c o m m u n i t y awareness by the Latin p o p u l a t i o n to u n d e r stand the established system and h o w it works, in order to b e t t e r f u n c t i o n within it. .

Myers said his main criticism of the Berry report is that as a piece

CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP MEETING

of research scholarship it is not w e l l - d o c u m e n t e d by facts, nor is it objective. Mrs. Berry states in the i n t r o d u c t i o n to her paper, "I c a n n o t deny, however, the presence of some biases of my own. . ."

BAKER R E M A R K E D that he too does not accept the report as a scholarly thesis. He called it an "editorial p i e c e " which definitely contains much hearsay and opinion.

In a written reaction to t h e Berry r e p o r t , h o w e v e r . Myers s t a t e d . " T h r o u g h a broad comm u n i t y c o m m i t m e n t to the goal of equality - b r o w n and white w o r k i n g t o g e t h e r in c o m m o n cause - Holland's cultural diversity can increasingly b e c o m e a source of e n r i c h m e n t for all. If the Berry Report nudges us a bit f u r t h e r in this d i r e c t i o n , despite our o b j e c t i o n s to particular aspects of it, then it will have been a good t h i n g . "

VAN H I L L ' S O P E R A T I O N , which began in 1957, is t h e realization of a c h i l d h o o d d r e a m . " A u c t i o n e e r i n g is all I ever w a n t ed to d o since I was a k i d , " the colonel claims. However, it was

not until the age of 31 that Van Hill was able to enroll in the three-week course of study which resulted in his f u t u r e of fulfillment. " T o be a good a u c t i o n e e r , ya have to have a real desire f o r the j o b , " Van Hill explains. And Van Hill u n q u e s t i o n a b l y has a Hair in his field. It is largely his i n f l u e n c e over the events of the evening which make the a t t e n d a n c e of the a u c t i o n a m o m e n t o u s affair. The colonel lends a theatrical flavor to the basic process of s e l l i n g - h e r u m b a s d u r i n g a p h o n o g r a p h demo n s t r a t i o n , ties a lilac organdy a p r o n a r o u n d his waist as he vies for a suitable price, and p l a n t s a hair-dryer h o o d on the head of an u n s u s p e c t i n g assistant.

E V E N T H E T I T L E , "Col. Van Hill", is but a n o t h e r professional gimmick Van Hill e m p l o y s to add to t h e flavor of his sale. A f t e r the Civil War, colonels o f t e n sold their horses to the soldiers at public a u c t i o n . Van Hill explains.

T h e Wednesday night a u c t i o n s generally e x t e n d until 10 p.m., and during this three-and-a-half h o u r span, Van Hill m a i n t a i n s a steady stream of a u c t i o n e e r lingo, not even pausing f o r a drink of water. His d u r a t i o n record was set w h e n , during a farm a u c t i o n , he sold for nine h o u r s straight

( " m i n u s ten or f i f t e e n m i n u t e s , " he modestly admits). When asked what he does a f t e r an a u c t i o n is finally over, the colonel replies, "Well, I sure d o n ' t go and sing in the c h u r c h c h o i r ! " THE COLONEL generally moves through 100 items an h o u r .

It is a rare o c c u r r e n c e , a c c o r d i n g to the a u c t i o n e e r , when he can't p r o m p t audience bidding on an article. Even seemingly n o n u s a b l e objects such as an e m p t y p o r t a b l e sewing m a c h i n e case o r a nontumbling t u m b l e d r y e r move into the h a n d s of a delighted b u y e r .

O f t e n , Van Hill appeals subtly to the vanity of the a u d i e n c e - " N o w , this here Norelco is a beautiful razor-but it does not w o r k .

'Course, if y e ' r e the least bit h a n d y , ya could fix it u p and have yerself a real sharp b u y . " Whatever tactics he e m p l o y s .

Van Hill's system of cash-on-theline and t a k e - i t - h o m e - w i t h - y o u is flourishing in an age of installment buying. T h e c o l o n e l ' s operation brings in a b o u t $ 1 0 0 , 0 0 0 a year. These m o n e t a r y b e n e f i t s plus the e n j o y m e n t Van Hill finds to be intrinsic in his o c c u p a t i o n have p r o m p t e d him to train his 18 year old son in the field, t h u s insuring that even in t h e t w e n t y first c e n t u r y the old-fashioned art of a u c t i o n e e r i n g will be preserved.

The technicals were just the stimulant the Dutch needed to pull away, as they saw Olivet close within eight p o i n t s of their 88 tally with the help of a n o t h e r technical foul. But the fired-up D u t c h m e n were not to be denied and their scoring hit the c e n t u r y mark with three m i n u t e s left, when they led, 1 00-88.

DAN S H I N A B A R G E R once again led the scoring barrage with 35 p o i n t s followed by senior Ric S c o t t , playing his last h o m e game, and getting 22 p o i n t s in a fine, overall e f f o r t .

The preliminary game was taken by H o p e ' s surging Jayvee's, who racked up a total of 70 points against the C o m e t s ' 49.

This proposal suggests moving Congress e l e c t i o n s to the last t w o weeks in March in o r d e r to remove the lame d u c k period. T h e new m e m b e r s would not take office until S e p t e m b e r , but they would have the o p p o r t u n i t y to work with the Congress and b e c o m e familiar with the issues congress is considering, according to the rationale f o r the p r o p o s a l .

The new screening process tor c o m m i t t e e a p p o i n t m e n t s will be discussed. A c c o r d i n g to the proposal, s t u d e n t s desiring a c o m m i t tee a p p o i n t m e n t must make application to Congress f o r an interview. A p p l i c a t i o n s will be accepted next week by S t u d e n t Congress Vice-President J a n e Leismer.

Student Congress will also consider c o m b i n i n g the o f f i c e s of secretary and treasurer, eliminating one post.
