Michigan Symphony Plays Here Monday Monday night the Michigan Symphony orchestra presented a fine concert in the chapel under the leadership of Philipp Abbas. The 50 musicians played a balanced p r o g r a m , the first p a r t made up of classic compositions, and the l a t t e r of more modern and much more effective music. Eugene Heeter conductcd one number, and John Kollen p e r f o r m ed a Mozart "Concerto" with the o r c h e s t r a . His technique was delicate, but so artistic t h a t one learned to listen f o r his solo p a r t s . Mr. Abbas seemed to conduct mechanically in the first seelctions but showed his ability mo re toward the middle of the p r o g r a m . His best work came a t t h e last when he played as a cello solo an " A d a g i o " by Bach f o r an encore. A n o t h e r request w a s his own arr a n g e m e n t of Schumann's " E v e n i n g Song," played by the orchestra. The s t r i n g section gave a pleasing p e r f o r m a n c e of a Von Weber " W a l t z " and the selection by piano and o r c h e s t r a w a s outstanding. Probably the most enjoyed numbers w e r e the Mendelssohn "Overt u r e " and the "Second Indian S u i t e " by MacDowell, because of t h e i r descriptive qualities.

The e n t i r e senior class h a s been conducting an intensive ticket selling c a m p a i g n in order to m a k e the play a success in e v e r y way. The stage s e t t i n g is to be f u r nished by the B a k e r c o m p a n y under the personal supervision of Mr. Dennis O ' M e a r a , while several p a i n t i n g s n e c e s s a r y a s s t a g e prope r t i e s have been contributed by F r e d Bertsch, S r . "The Late Christopher Bean" has always been a p o p u l a r play with professional as well as a m a t e u r companies. It was first produced in Baltimore, l a t e r in New York, and in various cities both here and a b r o a d . Reviewers have called it " s m a r t and ingenious," "pleasant c o m e d y - f a r c e — g a y and amusing," " r e f r e s h i n g , " " d e f t , " and "hilarious." T h e story concerns the situation which faces a N e w England doctor and his f a m i l y who have been l e f t a few d i r t y canvases by a village p a i n t e r of the n a m e of Christopher Bean, when he died penniless, in t h e i r care. Complications arrive when his w o r k is ac2laimed by a g r e a t New York a r t critic, and his p a i n t i n g s a r e sought by collectors and critics of every sort. A novelty twist at t h e end of the play provides i n t e r e s t and comedy. Miss Metz, the director of the play, is p a r t i c u l a r l y e n t h u s i a s t i c about it. " T h e r e is not one dull moment in i t , " she s a y s . " T h e m a n y clever touches, and the surprise ending provide i n t e r e s t and a m u s e m e n t f o r everyone."

N.B. The following poem, by Elizabeth Hodgins, was awarded the Atlantic Prize in 1936.
We print it here because it
short. The young who die must lie in chains of dust And willow roots; the old sleep heedlessly. Dissolved in clay and leaden rains and rust. The young who die have gone reluctantly With joys untasted, promises ungiven. They cannot see again the spring-green sky. The plum boughs breaking white, their branches riven By crowding sweetness.

books you will want to read. The first is a biography: Madame Curie, by Eve Curie, and translated by Vincent Sheean. It is very good reading and you will hang breathlessly on the tale of the discovery of radium. Poverty, privation — they were the bitter housemates of the Curies; yet out of the leaking shed that was for years their only laboratory came the shining, lifegiving ore that is one of science's greatest triumphs.

Anchor To Give 7 More Awards; Still 3 Gold Keys
Calvin Vander Werf and Peter Vanden Berge, who were both graduated from Hope last year, received outstanding graduate honors last week.
No Action on Associate Editor Nominees Monday An increase in the number of Anchor keys f r o m three to ten, t o be awarded annually, was approved a t a meeting of the publications committee Monday afternoon. The committee did not take action on the name of nominees f o r the position of associate editor submitted by the Anchor staff a f t e r a caucus last Wednesday, but returned the m a t t e r to the staff with a suggestion that two associate editors be elected. The publications committee also voted unanimously to approve tobacco advertising in the Anchor if the board of itrustees approves such action. The question was to be submitted to the trustees today by Prof. Clarence De Graaf and Charles Bertsch, Anchor editor. Only ads t h a t appeal to men will be considered. The seven additional Anchor keys will be awarded this year as follows: four for staff members who have had one or more years of service; three to • two-year staff members. The three gold keys, hitherto the only ones given, will be presented for three or more years of work in addition to the other requirements, the committee decided. Other requirements for all awards will be considered by the committee in awarding keys under the heads of: (1) efficiency, (2) attendance at staff meetings, and (3) initiative. Details of the plan as accepted will be discussed at staff meeting next Wednesday. Two Associate Editors? Another point to be discussed by the staff is the suggestion from the publication committee, made Monday, that two associate editors be elected this spring. The committee felt that if the final choice of the editor were made the spring before he^went into office, the danger of having a mediocre associate automatically become editor some year would be obviated. Prof. De Graaf, on behalf of the Milestone staff, announced that the annual will be off the press during the last week in May. Prof. De Graaf presided at the meeting.
Alumni Groups Hold Chapter Meetings In Various States The alumni chapters of Hope college have been holding their annual meetings this spring in various parts of the country. The Rochester, Albany, and New York City organizations held their meetings on March 25, 21, and 22, respectively. Dr. Wichers spoke and Mr. Paul Brouwer represented the alumni. The Muskegon and Kalam a i o o chapters have also held their meetings. These were attended by Dr. Wichers and Prof. Clarence Kleis. Mr. Osborne attended the Kalamazoo meeting a f t e r which the Hope College Glee club gave a program. , The Chicago chapter met Friday at Judson Court. May 6 has been set f o r the date for the organization of an alumni group around Sheboygan, Sheboygan Falls, Cedar Grove, and Oostburg, Wis. The Rev. Raymond Lubbers of Sheboygan Falls, class of '23, is chairman for the organization plan. It is also hoped that a group may be organized for the alumni living in the vicinity of Detroit and Ann Arbor. The plan is to organize more groups and to have a well-knit organization throughout the country. Mayor Henry Geerlings of Holland is president of the parents organization. Elections for the year were held a t the spring meetings with the following results: New York City chapter elected the Rev. Frank Huff of Paterson, N. J., as president; Arthur Winter, '17, vicepresident; Mary Waldron, '29, secretary. About 115 attended this meeting. The Albany meeting was attended by approximately 45. Rev. William G. Matt, '27, of Nassau, N. Y., was elected president. Vice-president is Mrs. Norman Vander Hart, nee Edith McGilvra, '29, of Knox, N. Y. Helen Van Ess, '27, of Albany, is secretary, and t h e Rev.

ATHLETES GIRD FOR ANCHOR MEET MAY 6 Plans Completed For Track Events On College Field Girls Ready For Class Games During May Day Festival Hope's second annual interfraternity track meet will be run off May 6 with the pomp and ceremony of an M.I.A.A. track and field meet. Plans of the committee working on the meet indicate that the event here the afternoon of the student council's May Day will be a preview of the athletic festivity to be enjoyed late next month at Kalamazoo. The meet will get under way at 1:30 when Miss Marjorie Moody, senior Victory queen, and her court wave the athletes of five f r a t e r nities and an independent group into action on the cinders of the college athletic field. Beginning with the shot put and pole vault simultaneously, officials of the meet expect to run every event on schedule, finishing in time for the crowning of the junior May queen in the sunken gardens shortly a f t e r 4 p. m. The events of the meet vary but a little from those of the M.I.A.A. finals at Kalamazoo. In the relay, one lap of 1/5 mile will be substituted for the usual Vi mile for each man on the team. In other distance laces, the runs may be limited to an even number of laps. Trackmen of the various teams have been in drills for two weeks, and the workouts by this week end are expected to swell as team managers have all candidates report. The fraternity team managers will list their entries, and report them at a meeting in the gym at 3 p. m.. May 5. The meet marks the second track event in Holland in as many years. Track work in the Holland high school was discontinued more than five years ago, and since that time no meet has been staged within the city. A crowd is expected to attend the events, and to avoid accidents during the meet, the spectators will be requested to remain on the sidelines. No person will be allowed within the track without a competitor's ticket, or an official's ribbon. Each track team will be assigned a base, and entrants will remain outside of the track except when in competition. While work for the boys' meet on the afternoon of May Day has progressed rapidly, Misses Gladys Moerdyke and Ruth Van Popering have organized the women's track meet for the morning events in May Day. The girl's meet will s t a r t at It) a. m., and will include a program of events slightly different from those staged by the Women's league. The events include the 50-yard dash, the 75-yard dash, the basketball throw, and the six-girl relay; the shot put, the high jump, the broad jump and the baseball throw. Awards will be made to three places. Misses Ruth Klassen, f r e s h m a n ; Ruth Van 'Popering, sophomore; Thelma Kooiker, junior; and Gladys Moerdyke, senior; are the class team managers. They will solicit entries in the events, and meet with fraternity team representatives May 5 to receive instructions, and to draw for lanes and places in the events of May 6. According to plans, a permanent trophy will be established for the girls, and a new trophy will be purchased f o r the f r a t e r n i t y meet. Ribbons will be awarded for places in both meets.

Baseball Players in Games This Week Open Sched Gentlemen enthusiasts of America's greatest sport will cavort in the uniforms of Hope college this week as the 1938 baseball season gets under way, and college athletes begin a schedule, which although meager, is expected to go a long way toward establishing Uncle Sam's favorite on the campus once more. For two years, Hope has been represented on the diamonds of Michigan State and Western State by a club which called themselves the Hope College Interfraternity nine. If sportsmen look now, they will see that same club taking the practice field this week in drills for their first real engagement at Western State this Saturday. Among the veterans of the Hope team is the king of the local mound, Bob Vandenberg, who needed no manager's urging to get him on the field this spring. Vandenberg i s the standout of the pitching staff, but Coach Jack Schouten has a job this spring Bob Vanden Berg

A new development on the campus this spring will be the girls' tennis tournament, sponsored by the Women's Athletic association. The tournament, already under way, will be competition between classes. Jean Hoekje, working in cooperation with Jack Schouten, will be in charge and will schedule all matches. The freshman class has already been scheduled f o r play-off matches. Winners will be selected from each class. These will compete in a final match. Any girls entering the tournament will receive credit toward the senior athletic award.
Net Team Faces Hope Trackmen Trail in Meet But Show Promise for Season Olivet Comets in Season's Opener In an unimpressive but encour- second instead of three points f o r a g i n g showing, Hope's track team opened its 1938 season by running third to Kalamazoo and Olivet teams at College field in Kalamazoo last Saturday afternoon in a triangular relay meet. Kalamazoo's Hornets showed a lot of power in the relay events by taking four of five relay firsts, and picking all four places in the javelin to cop the meet with 59 points. Olivet ran second with 36 points, and the Dutch trailed with 33. Hope lost a tie for second when Olivet's third place medley relay team was awarded six points f o r
SPORTING JOTS By Bob Wishmeier To insure best success of the I n t e r f r a t e r n i t y track meet on May 0, the men of Hope college ought to s t a r t a training table similar to one initiated at Voorhees Hall yesterday. . . The only difference in such a plan is that the girl's table is a diet table. . . While boys would have a single purpose—training, the girls have divers ideas. . . They stick to the tape measure. . . We hesitate to mention the members of the new club. . . Getting off the scales, and back to the track meet, the boys of all f r a t teams have been actively training for a number of events. . . The pole vault, high jump, broad jump and javelin, however, have been neglected. . . Equipment for these events will be in use this week. . . A full schedule for the events of the track meet follow: POLE VAULT. 1:45 1st 2nd .Jrd 4th Height SHOT PUT. 1.45 Ist 2nd 3rd 4th Distance O N E MILE RUN. 2.00 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Time 440 YARD DASH. 2.15 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Time 100 YARD DASH. 2.30 1st 2nd 3rd 4 th Time JAVELIN. 2:30 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Distance HIGH JUMP. 2:30 1st 2nrf ;<rd 4th Height 120 HIGH HURDLES. 2:45 1st 2nd .3rd .4th.

Despite . t h e fact that Lou Northouse, Hope dash and weight man, earned top scoring honors f o r the day with 11^4 points f o r Nordhouse firsts in the shot arid discus and participation In the 440-yard and 880-yard relay races, Hope could not beat the Olivet men. Hope's only firsts came in the field events where points were awarded on a 5-3-2-1 basis. Relay winners were awarded in three places with 10-6-3 points value. Hope men got their first outdoor competition of the year, and several of the team were entered in their first track meet. Although the showing was not impressive. Coach Jack Schouten was encouraged by the possibilities seen in the green runners. No date has been set for Hope's next meet, but the thinclad men are anxious to see as much action as possible so that they will be seasoned for participation in the MIAA track and field events the last of May. Hope men who entered the meet Saturday are Lou Northouse, Bob Powers, Bob Wishmeier, Harvey Hop, Lee Brannock, Ed Buteyn, Harold Van Domelen, Charles Waldo, Jim Hallan, Glenn Quist, Norman Timmer, J e r r y Rowerdink, Bob Vandenberg and Don Weaver.

Golfers Go to Kalamazoo in First of League Tests on Sched The Hope college tennis team will take the court f o r the first time this season in intercollegiate competition this afternoon. Hope's net squad faces Olivet a t the campus courts at 2 p.m. today f o r the opener on Hope's Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association tennis schedule. While the Dutch tennists are taking on Olivet at home, Hope's golfers will be playing Kalamazoo's foursome at the Kalamazoo country club. The tennis match this afternoon will be the first f o r both teams. Hope originally scheduled Grand Rapids Junior college in tennis, but the match was cancelled because of a curtailed budget. In matches Monday and Tuesday, players of the squad finished their tournament for places, and by those results Coach Harvey Kleinheksel will pick the order of his players. Bill Arendshorst, Gordon Pleune, Paul Boyink and Bill De Groot will probably play the singles matches today. Oliver Lampen, Don Poppen, George Plakke and Al Joldersma may also see action. While the schedule opens with Olivet today, the next two weeks find the collegians playing Alma at Alma, April 30; Kalamazoo here, May 4; and Hillsdale here. May 5. Golfers already have one match under their belts, and today get into MIAA competition. Coach Bruce Raymond's men lost a tough match to the crack Grand Rapids Junior squad last week, and are facing Kalamazoo on even terms at Kalamazoo today. Kalamazoo has beaten both Albion and Hillsdale this year, but like Hope, has taken a defeat at the hands of the Jaysees. The Dutch play all matches on foreign courts f o r the first half of their schedule. In the match last week, the Grand Rapids boys took Hope's measure, 11 Ms to V^. Bill Van Dusen, at the No. 3 position, picked up MJ point when he halved the second nine with Ralph Greese. The golfers had had little practice before the match, but hope to develop each week through the season. Their matches in the next two weeks include Albion a t Albion, April 29; Hillsdale a t Hillsdale, May 3; Western State a t Kalamazoo, May 6; Olivet at Olivet, May 7; and Alma at Alma, May 9.

to replace Joe Borgman, southpaw, who failed to return to school this year. Only one holdout is left to heckle the baseball players this season. Ernest Tirrel plans to last another week on the sidelines until the senior play is over, then Hope fans expect to see one of their favorites back behind the plate. There are a number of veterans out for the team, and with the generous sprinkling of rookies, which somehow or other got to school without promise of a big league payroll, the team this yeqr shapes up as a comer. The opening test for ball players i>' scheduled for Saturday at the Western d i a m o n d , but Coach Schouten was angling this week for a practice engagement with the high school proteges of Coach Bill Poppink at Rock ford today. These two games will s t a r t off a schedule that may become really f a t before the season is over. Hope students will see the first contest at Riverview park a #week from tomorrow- when Western State's frosh team comes for a return engagement. In games at the park last year, student attendance reached over 100. Although it is not probable that baseball will return as an MIAA sport for several seasons, the game will be enjoyed here on an interfraternity basis as long as players can find ball money.
