Because of the recent events in the Soviet Un i o n , w o r l d a f f a i r s h a v e become especially important to Hollender On March 11, the Republic of L i t h u a n i a d e c l a r e d its independence f r o m the Soviet Union. Its r e c e n t l y e l e c t e d parliament approved a resolution reaffirming the status that existed before it was annexed by Moscow 50 years ago. The parliament renamed the state the Republic of Lithuania.

While her family no longer has ties to relatives in Lithuania.

Hollender still shares concern for the struggling Soviet state.

Hollender's great-grandfather was a Lithuanian R e f o r m e d Minister in Lithuania prior to World War II. He spoke out against communism and fled for safety to Germany with his family when Soviet occupation was imminent in 1940.

Hollender's family lived in Germany until 1953 when they immigrated to the United States.

Hollender's mother was nine y e a r s old. T h e y s e t t l e d in Southwest Chicago which is an area that is home to the largest population of Lithuanians outside of Lithuania.

Hollender's grandfather is also a Lithuanian Reformed minister, now in C h i c a g o . P r o t e s t a n Lithuanians a r e in the minority, while 90 percent belong to the Roman Catholic Church.

Parking lots vandalized

by Carrie Maples news editor Incidents of vandalism to cars parked in college lots have increased in recent weeks.

Over the weekend two cars in College lots were damaged. One car in the Dykstra lot was scratched with a key doing approx imately $500 worth of damage.

The second car, in the Siberia lot between 10th and n t h Streets, had windows s m a s h e d with bricks and several items stolen from it. The damage in this case was approximately $300. Both cars were found by Public Safety officers on Sunday morning.

Ray Gutnecht, director of Public Safety, said on Monday, these two c a r s brings the total to three cars in six days. Gutnecht blames the vandalism on local high school students who were on spring break last week and over the weekend. He explained that there is an increase in vandalism during this time every year.

It only takes five minutes to vandalize a car, Gutnecht explained, and the perpetrators can easily hide from patroling Public Safety officers. " I t ' s difficult" to catch the vandals in the act he said.

When asked if the one or two officers patroling the campus were sufficient, Gutnecht said, "They try to get out there as much as possible at night."

In response to questions about what was being done to prevent further damage, or if patrols of the parking loLs would be increased, Gutnecht said, "I don't know." He explained the officers do patrol a r e a s randomly.

In related news, the Hope escort van is no longer using the flashing light to attract students and identify itself. Officer Duane Terpstra said, "We had a pro blem with neighbors complaining that the light bothered them."

Terpstra said Public Safety contacted the Michigan State Police to m a k e sure the flashing light was legal and discovered that since the van is not a school bus the light wasn't really legal.

Use of the light has been discontinued for the remainder of the school year and Terpstra hopes they will have found some other means of identifying the van by the time school starts next fall. He urges students to make a definate visual identification of the van before entering.

Sophomore receives Younger Scholar Award (HOLLAND) - Kerstin Byorni, a Hope College sophomore and classics m a j o r from South Bend, Ind., has received a prestigious Younger Scholar Award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).

The award will provide $2,000 in support for Byorni to conduct

Byorni will be studying the Roman philosopher Seneca, who was a tutor of the emperor Nero and a contemporary of the apostle Paul. Her resarch will focus on possible inconsistencies in Seneca's Stoic doctrine as it is presented in his essays and in his tragedies.

Modern scholars have noted c o n t r a d i c t i o n s in S e n e c a ' s teaching and his lifestyle. He praised the virtures of poverty, for example, while enjoying enormous wealth. Inconsistencies in his presentation of the doctrine, however, have not been examined in any detail.

Byorni is the second Hope classicist in three years to win an NEH Younger Scholar Award.

Byorni plans to go on to graduate school and pursue a teaching career.

r r o e rri^H n Ii; J O h 1 accepted scholarship monies from Gerrard W. and Edna Haworth to create three scholarships.

Haworth give three full scholarships (HOPE) - Gerrard W and Edna Haworth have presented Hope College with a gift that will be used to create a major endowed scholarship.

"The Gerrard W. and Eddie Haworth Endowed Scholarship F u n d " will be available to students with a demonstrated financial need who show promise of making a positive difference in the world, and will provide three f o u r - y e a r s c h o l a r s h i p s each year. The first recipients will be awarded scholarships from the f u n d d u r i n g t h e 1990-1991 academic year.

"We're very grateful to Gerry and E d d i e Haworth for remembering Hope College in this way." said Dr. John H. Jacobson, president of Hope College. "This is a very significant gift, and we're very pleased that it will be possible to create an endowment to provide significant financial aid to deserving Hope College students."

G.W. Haworth is chairman of the board of Haworth Inc., the firm he formed in 1948 as Modern Products. Today Richard Haworth serves the company as p r e s i d e n t a. n d C E O . G.W..

Haworth and his wife Edna (Eddie), a 1947 Hope graduate, live in Holland.

The Haworths' gift of $538,000 represents a long-standing int e r e s t in e d u c a t i o n . G.W. Haworth c a m e to Holland in 1938 as an industrial arts teacher, a position he held for nearly 10 years. Eddie was an English teacher.

They have also provided extensive f i n a n c i a l a s s i s t a n c e to higher education. A $5 million award from the Haworth family and firm to Western Michigan University led to the renaming of the university's business college as the "Haworth College of Business." The Haworths have also been generous supporters of Hope College in the past.

"One of the greatest needs in our country today is quality education-leaders such as Dr Jacobson, president of Hope, and Dr. H a e n i c k e , p r e s i d e n t of Western Michigan University, and their f a c u l t i e s need assistance from individuals and firms to enrich these schools " G.W. Haworth said. "We a r e proud to have a part in giving that Uiai

assistance."

G.W. Haworth graduated from high school during the Great Depression, and financed his own education at Western Michigan University by working his way through school. The scholarship fund at Hope is an example of his and Eddie's desire to help other students achieve their dreams "I think the needh of the in dividual students who would not be privileged to have the educa tion at Hope without financial assistance a r e most important, G.W. Haworth said. "That need is what we want to meet. It would be very rewarding to us if our assistance can help them be successful in their lives."

The Haworths' establishment of the scholarship fund is not ending with their financial con tribution, however. They hope to have opportunities to interact with the scholarship recipients " I t ' s both Eddie's and my desire to have active participa tion in the scholarships and to get to know the students who receive t h e m , " G.W. Haworth said "It would be enriching to us to know their activities and their sue cesses "

EIO sponsors Earth Day projects

by P a m Lundberg assistant news editor As a result of the growing concern for the f u t u r e of our environment, the Environmental Issues Organization w a s foun^l ed This unofficial group consists of 40-50 m e m b e r s . Right now its biggest project is recycling. The EIO is working in conjunction with t h e N a t i o n a l W i l d l i f e Federation (a nationwide network) and Holland Waste Management.

Throughout the month of April, boxes a r e being put in dorms and a p a r t m e n t buildings to m a k e it easier for residents to recycle their garbage. Members of the organization a r e picking up these boxes now, but soon maintenence will be taking over the project.

They will be using biodegradable bags to transport recycleable products.

Holland Waste Management also has plans to construct a two million dollar recycling plant. As of this year, recycling will only be done with paper. In the future the group hopes to branch out to include the recycling of glass and plastic.

The EIO is "growing out of concern for the environment," according to Matt Johnson, the group s spokesperson. Their goal is to send a m e s s a g e of concern to the Hope College community and the Holland community as well. F u t u r e activities of the group include, probably most importantly, research on Hope College. This research will include information on how much waste Hope College generates, how much waste can be recycled, and how to go about creating an "environmentally-friendly" campus At Westshore Mall on April 18

the group will have an information table set up to promote E a r t h Day. E a r t h Day is April 22. This year is the 20th anniversary of the start of legislation for a better environment. In honor of this day, The EIO will be planting a tree in front of Gilmore H a l l a t t h e r e q u e s t of maintenance The group will also be part of a walk with Ottawa Soil and Water Conservation District in late April. " W e ' r e a budding organiza tion. I'm looking toward the f u t u r e with o p t i m i s m , " said Johnson. "Think globally, act locally," is the groups slogan and philosophy. They hope to bring information and concern to this campus for and about the env i r o n m e n t a s a w h o l e but especially the environment in Holland. Their m e e t i n g a r e Wednesdays at 4:45p.m. in Lubbers Loft. Everyone is welcome

Campuses work for a better environment (CPS) - Here is a list of some of the projects that students nationwide have been working on in anticipation of April 22, E a r t h Day 1990.

The Spelman College (Atlanta) student government has started a c a m p u s recycling project and is c o o r d i n a t i n g w e e k l y environmental projects.

Non-traditional s t u d e n t s at Concordia College in St. Paul, Minn., a r e working to replace disposable diapers with cloth diapers at the c a m p u s day c a r e

center.

Fraternities at Alabama's Birmingham Southern University have taken on a campus-wide recycling project. Students separate the g a r b a g e into groups - such as plastics, glass and papers - for disabled groups to pick up materials for recycling.

Dartmouth College students and local residents in New Hampshire will take a 1-mile walk on E a r t h Day that will end with the planting of 500 white pine seedlings.

The senior class a t Bentley College in Waltham, Mass., raised nearly $20,000 to refurbish the C e n t e r for B u s i n e s s E t h i c s library with books, periodicals and videotapes about the environment.

Students at Washington University in St. Louis a r e "buying" rain forest land at $50 per acre. Various student groups a r e raising the money to sponsor and protect rainforests through Prog r a m for Belize.

Collegians in South Carolina

will simultaneously announce on E a r t h Day the creation of a statewide environmental network.

Princeton University students will spend the day hugging trees.

Students plan to hug the s a m e number of trees that must be cut down each day to supply the university with its paper.

A giant rally where student will d e m a n d changes in the way the university is run to m a k e it m o r e environmentally s a f e will take place at the University of

Michigan.

A University of Virginia stu dent will attempt to break the world record on after-dinner speeches by talking for 25 hours about the environment.

Students at Millsaps College in Mississippi, the University of Kentucky and Little Hoop Community College in North Dakota will plant trees on their campuses.

U n i v e r s i t y of N e b r a s k a Lincoln will host a brown-bag lunch lecture series.

(CPS) - Building on a y e a r of i n c r e a s e d e n v i r o n m e n t a l activism on campuses, students and national organizers a r e gearing up for what's being billed as the environmental event of the decade - the 20th a n n i v e r s a r y of E a r t h Day. Organizers expect some 2,000 campuses to participate, and they're hoping that collegians will provide the backbone for the April 22 event. " T h e environment is a hot issue," said Owen Byrd, national student coordintor of the group E a r t h Day 1990, headquartered in P a l o Alto, Calif. "Students have a pretty sophisticated understanding that the environm e n t t o u c h e s on all o t h e r issues."

A 1989 national survey of college freshpersons conducted by the University of California at Los Angeles found that 26.1 percent - the highest p e r c e n t a g e in the 24 y e a r s of conducting the survey - believed that getting in-

volved in p r o g r a m s that clean up the environment is "very important."

It's hard to say why students have become active, said George Washington University political science professor Howard Gillette.

"The Exxon spill probably helped renew e n v i r o n m e n t a l issues, but environmentalists also see more possibility for activism because President Bush is taking the issue more seriously than Reagan ever did."

Collegians planning to be part of this month's E a r t h Day claim it's a way to draw the nation's attention to the environment.

"We see so much d a m a g e all around u s , " said University of Cincinnati student Brenda Johnston. "People get tired of waiting for politicians and companies to take the initiative to do what should be done."

"This is going to start a chain reaction," promised J . Burger, a University of Nebraska-Lincoln student and m e m b e r of Ecology Now. 4 4 We're t r y i n g to get

prepared for new ( m e m b e r s ) . " The original E a r t h Day was planned for much the s a m e reasons 20 y e a r s ago. " F o r 10 y e a r s I was trying to figure out some sort of device to get the environment into the political a r e n a , " recalled originator Gaylord Nelson.

"Politicians weren't paying attention to the issue and I thought that it was i m p o r t a n t . " "I was reading an article about an anti-Vietnam teach-in, and the idea popped into my head to hold an environment teach-in," said Nelson, then a U.S. senator from Wisconsin who now works with the Wilderness Society in Washington. D.C. T h e t e a c h - i n p r o v e d successful. F o r the decade following, e n v i r o n m e n t a l i s t s won s e v e r a l s m a l l battles, when federal l a w m a k e r s started the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and passed the G e a n Water Act and the Endangered Species Act. But during the R e a g a n y e a r s , environmental progress suffered

greatly. Nelson said.

A slick promotional campaign has helped put the environment back on center stage. Sponsorships for this y e a r ' s E a r t h Day r a n g e f r o m $10,000 for a p a r a d e banner to $250,000 for a concert in New York's Central park, compared to a total $190,000 budget in 1970.

Of the few corporations that have offered their sponsorship, many have been turned away because of a policy against accepting money f r o m chemical, oil or timber companies. Even Exxon, the company behind the biggest oil spill in history, in which 11 million gallons of crude oil spilled into the waters surrounding Alaska last March, wanted to sponsor E a r t h Day. Some of the sponsors that have been accepted include Coca Cola, Esprit and Church & Dwight, m a k e r of Arm and H a m m e r Baking Soda. " I ' m curious by the fact that so much attention is being given to E a r t h Day this y e a r compared to past y e a r s , " George

Washington's Gillette said. "1 think when you have an anniversary it draws m o r e attention."

Collegians maintain the Exxon oil spill, deforestation and the threat of global w a r m i n g , not a successful m a r k e t i n g campaign, have led them to become environmentally active. " T h e activism is a function of the urgency of the c r i s i s , " says E a r t h Day's Byrd.

But American University Professor Gary Weaver says it's p r e m a t u r e to c a l l t h e environmental movement "activism with a capital A . " "At this point it's not the kind of activism we've seen in the past. It's nothing like the 60s because people a r e n ' t sacrificing for the c a u s e , " he said.

Full-fledged political cause or not, s t u d e n t s h a v e a l r e a d y started environmental activities.

Last October, students f r o m m o r e t h a n 250 c a m p u s e s gathered at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill to

Kellogg program sponsors science contest ( H O P E ) -- To e n c o u r a g e hands-on learning, the Kellogg Science Education P r o g r a m at Hope College is sponsoring a mystery-solving contest that only the application of chemistry skills can solve.

The " B a t in the Lighthouse" chemical competition has challenged 800 second through fifth g r a d e student f r o m 40 classrooms in four area school districts to identify a " m y s t e r y powder" supplied by the Kellogg

program. The participating districts a r e Holland Christian.

Five powders a r e being used in the competition, plaster of paris, flour, c r e a m of t a r t a r , powdered sugar and baking soda The second grade participants have been given a single s u b s U n c e to identify; the third through fifth grade participants have been given a mixture of two powders.

To identify their unknown powder, the students will compare the way the unknown reacts to several tests with the way known samples of powder react.

The tests can include solubility in water, acidity, reaction with acid (vinegar), change upon heating and reaction with iodine.

This is the second competition sponsored by the Kellogg program this year. The first, a paper airplane flying contest, involved students from 17 classrooms.

Students at Hope m a y consult with department chairpersons about submissions to the journal.

E m p h a s i s will be given to writing that displays knowledge of more than one academic discipline, and which deals with topics that a r e interdisciplinary.

In addition to research in the academic disciplines, some creative writing will be accepted, such a s poems, short stories, one-act plays and librettos.

The journal is purposely being i n t r o d u c e d at a t i m e when u n d e r g r a d u a t e writing is being assailed by critics.

Siberia needs protection In recent weeks the number of c a r s vandalized in college parking llots has escalated This past weekend two c a r s were damaged in allegedly patrolled college lots This brings the total, as of Monday, I to three c a r s in six days. When questioned by the anchor. Public Safety blamed the vandalism on high school students who were on spring break at the time But this does not account for the numerous incidents that have occurred before their spring break Because an officer s patrol is not patterned, the single officer on duty after 1 a.m. may elect not to pass through certain a r e a s of campus or may not patrol all a r e a s regularly. This tends to m a k e c a r s in college lots sitting ducks for vandals.

The anchor feels this course of events is not acceptable The $800 worth of d a m a g e done over the weekend cannot continue. Hope students deserve the assurance that their c a r s will be safe. This doesn't have to mean adding additional offices, but if that's what is | found to he needed done, it should be The officers though should be on some type of controlled pattern An actual mute isn't the answer since it wouldn't take that much intelligence to figure out the route. But m a y b e a check list with campus a r e a s This way the officers could drive by the different a r e a s in any order maintaining the irregularitv of a p p e a r a n c e while hitting I all the a r e a s Maybe some type of fence could be added around Siberia This | might be more dangerous than productive though because it would limit exits in case of an emergency. But Public Safetv should look into what other colleges do for their students as well as student and [college property Though, it's entirely possible that Public Safety already has this information Unfortunately, information upon these topics was unavailable to the anchor on short notice. Some officers were even instructed not to comment about certain issues to the anchor (and assumably other students V If this is for consistencv and truth, then the anchor applauds the action On the other hand, if the officers a r e not going to release information, then a Public Safetv m e m o about policy changes and criminal activity needs to be released to the an| chor for publication as seen fit.

For example, the dropping of the flashing light on the Hope escort van was done with no announcement creating doubt about the dark blue van and. therefore, an unsafe environment The dropping of the flashing light should have been announced to the anchor or pasted somewhere v.. .

As tor the removal of the light, some oUier method of identifying the \ a n is needed Waiting till next fall to do something about it i s | unacceptable \Sh> cwildn t a white identification svmbol or even 1 the words "Escort Van" be added to the sides in white" This would | identify the van much better than the small Hope insignia sticker j T h e a n c h o r hopes Public Safety will f r e e up its release of informa-j ion so that the Hope College pubhc will feel safe in the hands of 1

I'm here to slap you back into shape for the s u m m e r . The s e m e s t e r ' s almost over and the snow is gone It's a good time to give up.

You've worked hard enough, Spring break was great and it's time to let that dictate to the rest of your life. Or better yet, let me dictate to your life. Afterall. I'm a pro (and I'm cheap).

F e a r is good. It's always there.

Don't you hate confident people? They walk around saying things like. "Yeah, I'll do the paper before c l a s s . " "It'll only take an hour." " T h a t lab will be e a s y . " "Vectors? No problem," "I can recite 'Wasteland' verboten. Can't y o u 9 " Can t you Don't you want to slam these people over the head with a small a p a r t m e n t building 9 Who gave them this con fidence?

THIS IS JUST TO SAY Sick at school

ANNE SCHLOFF *

If anyone approached m e this past week with the "Hi! How a r e y o u ? " bit, they w e r e m o r e than likely given one of two answers; 4 4 0h, I'm just fine, thanks...grumble, g r u m b l e " or " I ' m sick and I h a t e the world and everyone in it, t h a n k s ! " I hate being sick. When 1 was a freshperson, I had the opportunity of having one of those years when the m a j o r i t y of my time was spent recovering from one illness or another. What a great experience for a freshperson!

My favorite of all ailments was my food poisoning extravaganza (and surprisingly enough, it was NOT a result of Phelp's food!!!).

I still feel blessed to have lived right next door to the bathroom.

It's terrible enough when your sick, but when y o u ' r e sick at school, it's ten times worse.

There a r e a couple of problems that m a k e being sick at school so horrible.

First of all, if y o u ' r e anything like me, you have a guilty conscience and missing class without someone's s t a m p of approval to miss class m a k e s you feel guilty.

I can r e m e m b e r a s a freshperson trudging to my 8:00 calculus class in November with the flu. I felt like death and looked like it a s well-which I tried to disguise with a hooded sweatshirt. Biit I

But you underclasspeople must face responsibility too. You've got tuition payments to make, car payments. VISA bills to shiver about. "Who died and left me with all this responsibility?" you cry.

And that's good. Because you can't handle it. You just can't.

And I'm here to m a k e sure you can't Trust me Why would you want to overcome you fears 0 Then you'd have to deal with them. It's better to give up Don't face your fears Let someone else do it if they want to.

The key to giving up is to accept the fact that you ARE the only one who is having problems.

You ARE the only one afraid Every on else IS dealing with life. Really you ARE alone.

Now about those people who look calm and assured Many of them a r e afraid too. They just hide it better. They don't share their fears with friends. They don't help carry one another's burdens. Some of them a r e even

You a r e alone. Don't reach out for help Don t talk about your fears with anyone else Don't burden people. There is no strength in numbers. That's just a vicious rumour perpetrated by social workers who get paid for group facilitating.

rings or there's a knock at the door (and the door's locked, so you have to get up to answer it).

Now there's the problem of food When you're at home, Mom or Dad usually takes c a r e of it My mom always c a m e into the room and said, "How a r e you feeling 9 Well enough to eat?

What would you like?"

This is the only time when you're totally in control. Mom and Dad will get you anything you want from the grocery store.

Problem is, you can only handle soft boiled eggs or chicken broth.

But when you're at school,

what do you get? First thing you have to do is find the R.A. so that you can get him or her to write a note or call Phelps to tell them that you're legitimately sick.

Then you're supposed to find someone to take your i d., go to Phelps and get you what's called a "sick t r a y . " Basically, this is a styrofoam tray on which your friend can put all sorts of good things for you to eat.

If you're lucky, your friend will be knowledgeable and somewhat sympathetic a s to the needs of what a sick person wants to eatjello and 7-up. If you're not so

SUP OF THE MIND S.I. Nasty

JIM MONNETT afraid to admit to others that they are afraid.

Why? Because fear equals weakness. I know it and you know it.

And if you a r e really paralyzed by fear just sit down in a locked closet and give up That's what I. S. I Nasty, do. I don't seek out anyone who m a y be willing to listen to my plea or rant or jumbled non sensical emotions.

Don't rely on other people And don't pray. That would be admitting weakness to someone who loves you.

Come to m e instead Come to S I Nasty. I'm like the government. I 'm here to help you. lucky, what you get on that styrofoam tray is stuff like South of the Boarder casserole with some milk and a piece of garlic bread. In these situations, you can make yourself feel better by thinking about the five to ten pounds you're going to lose as a result of being sick.

I often have thought about what this college should be doing with the extra money they ask for every year in the form of tuition hikes and I think I've come up with a plausible solution. Import our m o m s for 'sick'' season.

On Thin Ice: Outta' my field of dreams

"

what happens? Michigan gets beat by 30 points.

I heard the voice now, though.

Now it was talking about the Tigers, and I knew better than to trust it in this case. " H a ! " I said to the voice, "How big of an idiot do you think I a m ? The Tigers finished in last place last year, and a r e n ' t really any better this y e a r . " "If you watch them, they will win," the voice replied.

"Leave m e alone," I said. "I have to get my schedule for next year ready; I have to register tomorrow." "If you watch them, they will win," replied the voice I said "you know as well as I do that the Tigers will be lucky to stay out of the c e l l a r this season." "They've got shaky pitching, and they couldn't hit water if they fell out of a boat," I said. "If you watch them, Cecil Fielder will h o m e r , " says the voice.

That's true, I thought, the Tigers do have a true power hitter again. After all. Fielder did hit 3 home runs in one g a m e during the Spring. Maybe the voice had a point. "If you watch them,

Moseby and T r a m m e l l will go 3-4." Again the voice had a point.

Trammell is health again, and the Tigers had obtained Lloyd Moseby from Toronto where he had been a solid ballplayer The voice was starting to m a k e sense.

"If you watch them. Morris will win. and P e t r y will pitch." " Y e a h , " 1 thought, "those two were great in '84, why wouldn't they be now?" "If you watch t h e m . L e m o n will m a k e a shoestring c a t c h , " continued the voice. " O k a y , " I exclaimed, "I'll watch the Tigers win it all this year!"

So what happens? Morris gets bombed early, Fielder strikes out swinging a t Roger Clemens' pitches that a r e already in the catcher's mitt. Lemon drops his shoestringer, and Trammell strikes out as the Tigers lose. I'm through listening to that voice, I've got better things to do. At least it won't bother m e for a while, though, since the g a m e s a r e n ' t on TV. "If you listen on radio they will win," says the voice. So I respond a s I should, "What s t a t i o n ? "

Dance XVI

House

by Julie G.Kidl guest writer

rto^'Tu^-

The more things change, the more they stay the same. As usual, Hope College's d a n c e departmant delivered a complete, memorable, and challenging evening of dance to its packed house a s "Dance 16" opened at DeWitt Center.

W h a t' s c h a n g e d is Hope's department. Since its beginning some 20 y e a r s ago through the w o r k of p r o f e s s o r M a x i n e DeBruyn, the dance department has developed a comprehensive d a n c e c u r r i c u l u m of ballet, modern, jazz, tap, and dance theory. In 1985 Hope earned accreditation from the National Association of Schools of D a n c e (NASD), a s one of only three small liberal arts colleges in the nation to receive the distinction.

Accreditation has brought acclaim, and acclaim brings students. In the past few years the number of Hope's dance majors has quadrupled, and that wellspring of new talent is evident in the annual concerts, particularly in last night's performances.

Hope's concerts always include a p p e a r a n c e s by guest artists, dance professionals offering s o m e t i m e s t r a d i t i o n a l , sometimes non-traditional dance genres. This y e a r ' s guests have made a c a r e e r of surprising their audiences by blurring the lines, exploring the tap in tap.

T a p - a s - p e r c u s s i o n in Anita F e l d m a n and G a r y S c h a l l ' s theme as they e x p e r i m e n t through collaboration, presenting their audience with an unusual, often whimsical performance. " L a n d i n g s " features Schall on d r u m s and xylophone, and Feldman and Schall on the T a p Dance I n s t r u m e n t , " a kind of oversized m a r i m b a .

Feldman dances on the instrument (visually recalling Tom Hanks' p e r f o r m a n c e in " B i g , " though musically much more adept) while Schall plays it in a somewhat more traditional manner. by use of oversized hammers. Their duet achieves a modern folk-dance feel, as experimentation reveals elements of the roots of both tap and marimba.

Early in the evening F e l d m a n offers a different slant on her elemental, experimental tap in "Riffle," and "Tapping Music" A relatively new f e a t u r e of Hojie's concerts is the work of choreographers-in-residencÂť guest artists who sweep in for four intensive weeks with Hope dancers to choreograph a piece for the concert. This y e a r ' s guest choreographer, Julio E. Rivera, serves on the faculty of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, and has recently formed his own dance company, Contemporary Motion. Rivera, who performed for Hope audiences as guest a r t i s t - c h o r e o g r a p h e r in 1988. returns to give us " T r i b e s , " a

Mighty Lemon Drops score with 'Laughtour'

by Bill Meengs assistant editor One of the hottest tours in all of progressive music c a m e to a stop last Wednesday at Kalamazoo's State T h e a t e r . The Mighty I^mon Drops, the Ocean Blue, and J o h n W e s l e y H a r d i n g brought their " l a u g h t o u r " to a stop for one show in West Michigan.

The Mighty Lemon Drops a r e a post-punk British rock band that has been getting s o m e serious airplay on college stations across the country with their latest release " L a u g h t e r . " The album itself sounds like a rockâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;roll record with some British pop mixed in. But their punk roots show through clearly during a live performance.

The q u a r t e t u s e s buzzsaw guitars, and f r a n t i c , driving drum beats that really get the au-

dience into the show. This was most apparent on their hit "Inside Out," and " R e a l World" from the " L a u g h t e r " album. It makes these two real exciting, high-energy tunes. You couldn't help but dance. One problem, though, was that " R e a l World" has some rockin' kick horn parts in it. But these were covered up by the whirling guitars.

The show wasn't the tightest in the world either. Several times during the band's hour long set, there were long pauses between songs so the band could re-tune their instruments (or take a swig of beer). While this may be necessary, they could certainly find some way to keep the show flowing smoother.

There wasn't an extravagent light show either, which was just as well, since it lets you concent r a t e on the band's actual perform a n c e The Lemon Drops put

t o g e t h e r a s o m e w h a t rough show, but it was enjoyable, and had high energy level.

The key to the Lemon Drops' p e r f o r m a n c e w a s t h a t they seemed to actually be having fun on the stage. This might seem a given, but some bands cannot pull it off; they simply don't like live performances.

The Lemon Drops saved their best for last, however, as their final song in the second encore was a rousingly punked-up cover of the Rolling Stones' "Paint it Black." Mick and the boys would have a hard time trying to get as much energy out of the song as the Lemon Drops did.

Ocean Blue, likewise, put on a great show. Basing their sound on British pop similar to what Duran Duran played in their earlier days. One significant difference is that while Duran Duran wrote teeny-bopper dime

Ninja Turtles please

by Jim Monnett editor Personally, I prefer Cowabunga!'" says the talking rat mentor of the four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in this new live action movie. If you do too, then this is your movie.

Turtles, a s the movie and mania a r e affectionally called, are for children . . of all ages. At the m a t i n e e s c r e e n i n g t h e parents were there in force with their children from kindergarten to teenagers. But it was the adults doing the laughing right along with their kids.

The movie is aimed at children and adults. The pizza-eating tee-^ge m u t a n t ninja turtles a r e for the kids, but the humor is aimed for the parents. And it works for those audience

m e m b e r s willing to let go of their " a g e . " The humor isn't adolescent like many modern teen comedies, but rather generally funny.

For example one of the turtles is chasing a guy and does a flip over a New York City cab. The p a s s e n g e r asks, 4 'What w a s t h a t ? " The cabbie a n s w e r s with a straight face, "It looked like a big green turtle in a trenchcoat.

Where would you like to g o ? " It's that kind of dry humor.

The story (surprisingly there is a plot) centers around an evil Darth Vader rip-off called the Shredder who is leading the disenchanted and forgotten youth of New York on a c r i m e spree. The Shredder's black clad warriors try to mug April O'Neil, a newsreporter investigating the crime wave. She is saved by the

store pop, the Ocean Blue bases their lyrics on a much higher plane. They have done covers of many Christian band tunes including the TV's " R e n a i s s a n c e M a n " and their own music often has messages in it.

Ocean Blue is just a basic rock band (bassist, guitarist, drumm e r and keyboards) but they get a surprisingly m a t u r e and layered sound. Their best songs were "Love Song," Drifting, F a l l i n g , " and " B e t w e e n Something and Nothing" which had the entire theater dancing.

Their 45 minute set was the most enjoyable of the evening, and it was refreshing to see such young musicians (all in their early 20's) perform m a t u r e music.

John Wesley Harding opened the show with an enjoyable musical set, even if his attitude was somewhat caustic. Harding

performed r e m a k e s of Depeche Mode's "Personal J e s u s " and Madonna's "Like a P r a y e r " that were better than the originals.

Harding's p e r f o r m a n c e was totally different from most other band's as Harding performed by himself with only an acoustic guitar. Harding's problem was that he spent too much time telling people to buy his album, putting down other a r t i s t s (Everything But the Girl, Phil Collins, and Don Henley to n a m e a few), and telling people to kiss a godless communist gay baby seal for Christ (what his T-shirt read) when he should have been singing.

Despite some shortcomings, it was an exciting musical show that provided a wide range of styles. But most importantly, it was fun, which is what you go to a concert for anyway.

Plant continues growth

by Bill Meengs assistant editor Following on the heels of his most accissible solo album to date, 1988's t4 Now and Zen," Robert Plant takes another step towards the m a i n s t r e a m with his latest release " M a n i c N i r v a n a . " Plant will always be known a s the voice of Led Zeppelin, but he had been trying to move a w a y from that i m a g e with his first solo albums. Now P l a n t is starting to move back towards the Zeppelin sound with his music.

On 44Now and Zen," Plant used several s a m p l e s of Led Zeppelin songs, and even t e a m e d up with former Zeppelin m a t e , guitarist

Jimmy Page. . There ax? no Zeppelin samples on the album, and Page does not

show up anywhere, but the Zeppelin influence cannot be denied.

This is a straight-ahead rocker that is a direct throwback to Zeppelin's heyday. P l a n t ' s voice even approaches its levels of old, though a few octaves lower.

The album is a solid all-around effort, but the album works best with its up-tempo rockers.

T h e f i r s t s i n g l e 4 4 Hurting Kind" sounds similar to P l a n t ' s hit "Tall Cool One" off <4Now and Zen" minus the Led Zeppelin samples. This is not the best song on the album, but it gets the album kicked off to a rockin' start, and sets the mood for the rest of the album.

The album works the best on the two middle tracks "Tie Dye op the Highway" and "Your Ma Said You Cried in Your Sleep

Last Night." "Tie Dye" opens, with a sample from Woodstock "What we have in mind is, breakfast in bed for 400,000" then kicks into a fun rock beat with some classy guitar riffs.

"Your Ma Said You Cried..." is just an all-around fun tune Though it isn't a sample, "Black Dog" (a classic Zeppelin tune) a p p e a r s in this song. The last, verse of "Your M a " is lyric? taken from "Black Dog." There a r e several instances of s a m p l i n g of o t h e r s o u r c e s besides Zeppelin on this album There's a s a m p l e of J a m e s Brown's " P a p a ' s Got a Brand New B a g , " and several samples of E a s t e r n music, which might be expected judging from the album title.

Junior finds Capetown students involved Dear Editor, I'm studying at the University of Cape Town, a university known for being "liberal", as all of Cape Town is.

On my first arrival at VCT, I was confronted walking uphill by about 4,000 students.

AH through the week there were protests against VCT's Residential Office. It seems that Zimbabwe doesn't like its youth to attend South African Universities, so a s a deterrant, they hold back matriculation results until a f t e r the V's have started.

Thus, 350 and some odd students could f i n d no o n - c a m p u s residences. The protests seemed to be centered around the fact t h a t VCT w o u l d not g i v e residences to blacks, which is how it looks on paper, because obviously, almost all those arriving late from Zimbabwe a r e black (and incidently, one white student f r o m a state in America that's shaped like a mitten).

VCT bought m o r e housing.

Protests continued over the fact that VCT did not allow nearly 400 students back from last year because of academic failure (380 or so of these students were black). It w a s a r g u e d that many blacks come from almost zero educational background, and therefore, it is unfair to fail them. Instead there should be more p r o g r a m s to help them.

VCT gave some ground and allowed 150 to return, and introduced a new program. The response? What about the other 250? And so on, the arguing continues.

Conscription is also a big rallying cry. All South African males i

a r e required on year in the military. Those who refuse get jailed. There wer a few students from VCT who found themselves jailed and most protests a r e for their benefit. " F r e e so-and-so " posters a r e all over campus, along with all the other South African outcry posters on social issues.

I was asked at a dinner party of 15 VCT students the other night, what sort of protests Hope College comes up with. I hesitated.

4 'Surely," I was asked, " t h e r e must be problems in the U.S.?"

"Oh, yes," I quickly agreed.

"Well then, what sort of thing outrages your c a m p u s ? " And here was my problem: I could only think of one thing.

There a r e probably many more, even better examples, but this one thing kept running through my mind so I had to use it."

"Well once, a few y e a r s ago, a maintenance man or two killed a squirrel for no apparent reason with a r a k e . " Silence.

"Don't they protest against, say, Aparteid?"

"Oh yes, sort of. Rev. Allan Boesak c a m e to speak and the building was packed. He was incredible. Everyone w a s . . . " "Do the students p r o t e s t ? " "No, not that I know of. I mean, they could, and I ' m sure some try, but at best m a y b e 30-100 people show up, if that many." " W h a t u n i t e s the s t u d e n t body?"

"Uh, nothing.

Unless you count Nykerk or The Pull or basketball g a m e s . " Someone asks about Nykerk

and The Pull. 1 explain. Silence.

The concersation drifts away to other a r e a s and I take a deep breath. There was one question that they forgot to ask, a question my whole mind was dreading. " W h y ? " Why isn't Hope College's students body politically active? Why do the students nod their h e a d s a t c a u s e s they believe in but take no action?

Are there no problems on Hope's campus? Is the United States free f r o m problems? No student involvment! Why? "What can I d o ? " "What can I d o ? " is a phrase I've heard so often around Hope.

It is usually accompanied by a >hrug or a flip of the hand or x)th.

Here is where the problem oegins: students a r e using the 'what can I d o " as the answer to their inactivity, when in reality it should be the question, the starting point, the launching pad of iheir activity. "What can I do" should not be given as a response to others, but should be a haunting self-question, a question that needs to be answered, the beginning of a quest.

One of the answers to this question may be protest, but certainly involvment is a crucial first step.

I would like to think that all those a t Hope College who strongly believe in something, would seek the answer to the question "What can I d o ? " with as much passion a s their beliefs hold. Because it is not enough to declare outloud " I a m h u n g r y ! " , one must also go about in getting some food.

Sincerely, Dan Schut Junior

Editor, if you would, allow me to vent some irustrations in this hectic final pull before the summer.

The following is a list of a few recent annoyances that have made my stay at Hope College less than sublime.

1. That a m n n o y i n g , spike haired juvenile that hangs out at our library must go. I'm sure students other than I have been irritated by his attention getting behavior. I pay a lot of money to attend Hope and wish to spend it unbothered by children. I realize that he has some sort of behavior disorder and I sympathize with that but not when he make Van Wylen into Van Daycare.

2. Recently I have noticed an influx of students playing g a m e s with their and my eductaion.

Games on the Vax and Zeniths a r e not condoned by Computer Services nor by I, especially when they play at prime times (Sunday at 8:00 p.m.). Unfortunately it is occasionally the consultants that a r e partaking in the gaming (this is not the case tonight). Not only do they take up the terminals, they get into groups and m a k e excessive noise while others a r e taking things more seriously. Just tonight, as I

write this letter there is a group of six gamers taking up of the 12 computers in VZ 142 computer room. Should 25 percent of our computers be used for exclusive recreation?

3. I am appalled at the audaci ty of the smokers of our campus to literally throw their butts at the entrance of Van Wylen Tonight 1 counted no less than 120 cigarette butts on the concrete and in the planters at the en trance of our library 1 applaud the administration in making the lounge a smoke free environ ment. I wish to call on them again to supply the fuming folk an outside ashtray for the lef lovers of the smokers despicable habit.

I realize that everyone is not to blame in the cigarette problem and the gaming. I respect the rights of anyone who wishes to smoke or game. However, it irks me when they, in turn, do not respect my rights; if I can claim that a quiet working environ ment and a clean living environment a r e my rights. This I am not sure of. but I a m sure that it bothers me and I would like to see it changed.

Thank you for your considera tion.

AIDS threat did not change sexual habits ( C P S ) -- C o l l e g e w o m e n haven't changed their sexual habits much during the past 15 years, despite the threat of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases, a survey conducted by Brown University p r o f e s s o r s found.

Just a week earlier, another study by two California professors charged that as many as a third of the nation's collegians had lied in order to have sex with someone.

The Brown study indicated that about the s a m e number of college women - 88 percent said they were sexually active as in a survey done in 1975. About 21 percent of today's women said they'd had more than six sex partners, compared to 22 percent in 1975.

The results concerned the researchers, who noted that kind of promiscuity doesn't bode well for the women's survival during the age of AIDS. They suggest " t h a t public health campaigns have not had a s u b s t a n t i a l influence on t h e habits and behavior of these welleducated young a d u l t s , " the r e s e a r c h e r s wrote in the study, which w a s published in the March 22 edition of the New England Journal of Medicine.

Fifteen percent to twenty percent of the women said they knew

somebody with AIDS, but about half said they only occasionally w o r r i e d a b o u t g e t t i n g the disease.

Public education efforts about safe sex haven't been very effective, agreed a California State University-Sonoma student who did't want to be named. "There's room for m o r e ad v o c a c y , " she said.

Nevertheless, women who had their partners use condoms increased from 14 percent in 1975 to 41 percent in 1989.

Brown University researcher Stephen Zinner, who co-authored the survey with W'illiam McCormack of the State University of New York H e a l t h S c i e n c e s Center and Brown colleagues Dr Barbara DeBuono, Maxim Daamen and Roger Williams, said that while the condom statistic is encouraging, it still isn't comforting.

"If less than 50 percent of the women in this educated college group use condoms, one would have to wonder what the proportion is in other groups," he said.

Results of the Brown study were based on questionaires filled out by women who researchers described only as attending the s a m e " l a r g e private university in the Northeast."

Dutch smash K-Zoo in doubie header

by Rochelle Anderson sports editor The Flying Dutch defeated the K a l a m a z o o Hornets in both games of a double header last Friday at Ekdal J . Buys Athletic Field, by the score of 4-3 and 7-0.

Junior Jackie Krombeen of Grand Rapids smashed the ball over the left fielders head to send in the tying and winning runs in the bottom of the seventh.

Kalamazoo scored all their points in the top of the seventh, against Malkewitz, who pitched the e n t i r e g a m e . Malkewitz walked the first batter and committed an e r r o r when the second batter hit the ball to her, leaving runners at first and second. She then loaded the bases by walking the next batter.

A double by the Hornets sent their first run in and two bad pit-

ches in a row gave them the next two. Kalamazoo led Hope three to two before Malkewitz struck the last batter out.

Track opener held against Southwestern Community College

(HOPE) - The Hope College track team opened their outdoor season Saturday (March 31) by hosting Southwestern Community College of Dowagiac at the Buys Athletic Fields.

Field events will begin at 12:30 p.m.

The Flying Dutchmen's team f e a t u r e s t a l e n t t h a t should challenge for the gold in several events, but might lack enough depth to contend for the overall MIAA championship, according to coach Mark Northuis. " E x c e p t for t h e j u m p i n g events, we a r e well balanced, but in the league championship meet it is going to be difficult to challenge defending champion C a l v i n , " said N o r t h u i s who begins his second year a s head men's coach. Hope finished third behind Calvin and Albion in the 1989 MIAA standings.

The Flying Dutchmen return 17 letterwinners, including three defending MIAA champions.

At the State University of New York at Buffalo and the universities of Colorado at Boulder and North Carolina at Wilmington, for instance, students h a v e c a m paigned to get food services to stop serving tuna b e c a u s e dolphins often get tangled into the tuna nets and die.

Collegians f r o m C a l i f o r n i a State University in S a c r e m e n t o , Central College in Iowa and Brown U n i v e r s i t y in R h o d e Island, to n a m e a few, h a v e forced their schools to stop using c u p s a n d p l a t e s m a d e of polystyrene. The s u b s t a n c e releases chlorofluorocarbons which, in turn, deplete the ozone layer.

S t u d e n t s in Lincoln, Neb., climbed trees to keep them f r o m being cut down during the first week of March. At least 18 w e r e a r r e s t e d in a three-day protest.

For example, a g r a v e y a r d for extinct species will be set up on the Quad, a high-traffic area on c a m p u s . E v e r y d a y at noon for a week the G r i m R e a p e r will add tombstones with the n a m e s of a n i m a l s t h a t have become extinct.

On another day, students will come to c a m p u s d r e s s e d up a s their favorite plant or animal.

And for those who want to symbolically go back to the e a r t h , a Mud Fest ~ a celebration of renewal - will be held. P a r ticipants will be ' ' b a p t i z e d " by being i m m e r s e d in a pit of mud.

W h i l e t h e U n i v e r s i t y of Nevada-Las Vegas (UNLV) administration is t e a m i n g up with E P A to put on E a r t h Day activities, s o m e s t u d e n t s took it upon themselves to organize additional p r o g r a m s .
