BUILD HOPE F U N D GIFT A N D PLEDGE REPORT

Trend nationwide

Frosh applications still lag Applications for admission to Hope are still nearly 20 percent behind last years' according t o Director of Admissions T o m La Baugh. As of April 25 the admissions office has received 9 1 6 applications, which is 221 behind the same time last year. T h e expected freshmen class for the fall semester is 563 or 53 below the original projection of 616.

According t o a s t u d y published

by U.S. News and World Report.

Hope's decreasing enrollment situation is typical of many private colleges t h r o u g h o u t the country.

The National Association of College Admissions Counselors estimates there are more than 6 0 0 , 0 0 0 places still available in the nations and universities as of mid-April. A b o u t half of these openings are for freshmen, the rest for transfer students.

The report continued that private colleges are experiencing the decline more t h a n public schools because public schools are less costly.

A r t h u r E. S u t t o n , assistant t o the chancellor of the University of California at Riverside, was q u o t ed in U.S. News and World Report as analyzing the enrollment situation this way: " T h e crux of the matter is really centered in a whole batch of social, economic and political pressures which the universities face today. There is a changing attitude toward education among people which is apparently a very f u n d a m e n t a l shift.

"It is seen particularly in the upper and middle class white American traditional attitude toward the value of a college degree.

CLB approves T h e first change in Hope drinking policy came Monday night at a meeting of the C a m p u s Life Board when they voted t o enact t h e amended version of t h e o f f campus drinking proposal passed earlier last week by the S t u d e n t Conduct Committee.

THE AMENDED proposal stated that off-campus drinking will be permitted at registered social events on an experimental basis during the 1973-74 academic year 4 provided the event is held at an establishment with a license t o sell alcoholic beverages.

Committee

Received to Date

Off-campus drinking passes

Choir will present concert Sunday in Dimnent Chapel Hope's Chapel Choir under the direction of Professor Of Music Dr. Robert Cavanaugh, will present its annual h o m e concert Sunday at 3 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial Chapel.

The concert has in past years been the concluding event of Tulip Time but because of the new college calendar it has been advanced three weeks.

The program of sacred music will be the same as that presented by the choir during its recently c o m p l e t e d tour of midwestern states. Included will be works by Orlando Gibbons, Heinrich Schutz, J.S. Bach, Vincent Persichetti and Ralph Vaughan Williams.

The choir will sing in four languages and the evening's program will feature a triple choir n u m b e r and selections by the men's and w o m e n ' s choirs.

T h e choir has recently finished transcribing m a n y of the songs p e r f o r m e d on this year's t o u r for a new record to be released next fall.

Admission will be free, the concert open t o t h e public.

Pierpont added that $ 1 2 0 , 0 0 0 has been pledged from businesses in the Hollahd-Zeeland area to date. He also said 10 of the 2 0 large gifts planned for in the Fund had been committed and good prospects existed for the other 10.

"ONCE YOU GET the big gifts and the small gifts accounted for the ones in the middle start falling into place," he noted.

Asked about possible effects of inflation on the original cost projections, Pierpont stated, "The only project where this might pose a problem is the phys. ed. building. At this time, though, we feel we can probably do it for the budgeted figure ( $ 2 , 5 0 0 , 0 0 0 ) . " "The Business Office took projected construction costs of the mid-seventies into account when they drew up that figure," he said.

Pierpont added that no major gift towards construction of the physical education complex had been received yet.

The Build Hope Fund is slightly short of the goal it had set for this point in the drive but an upturn is expected "very soon," according t o Fund coordinator Robert Pierpont.

PIERPONT stated that the end of April would mark the midpoint of the campaign, with $ 4 , 2 8 0 , 0 0 0 committed thus far. The total goal for the Build Hope Fund is $ 8 , 8 5 0 , 0 0 0 over a 36 month period.

"We're $ 1 4 5 , 0 0 0 short of where we should be at the midpoint of the campaign," he said.

"We expect to make this up quite soon, though. Both the Campaign Cabinet (Key Gifts) Committee and the Advance Gifts committee are working on some substantial prospective gifts right now."

THE F U N D coordinator pointed out in addition that the amount of funds received in fund raising drives such as Build Hope tends to "wax and wane."

r

T h e original proposal would have permitted drinking offcampus a n y w h e r e regardless of whether t h e y held a liquor license.

DEAN OF STUDENTS Robert DeYoung told the CLB, "1 have been i n f o r m e d that it is illegal for students t o rent a place like Enterprise Lodge and bring their own beverages."

DeYoung indicated it would be legal if the group obtained a day license, but added, " A t an establishment with a liquor license they are liable for the actions of their patrons, but otherwise Hope College would be held responsible."

STUDENT BOARD m e m b e r Bob Schellenberg stated that "students would act in a responsible way if allowed t o obtain day licenses," and that places like En-

terprise Lodge were "ideal because of their location away f r o m city life."

ASSOCIATE Professor of Physical E d u c a t i o n and Chairman of t h e CLB Russell DeVette said that if drinking is allowed only at places with a liquor license, "a s t u d e n t will k n o w right away w h e t h e r t h e r e will be drinking.

This gives a s t u d e n t a real choice."

SCHELLENBERG disagreed. " A student always has a choice w h e t h e r he wants t o drink. By passing the amended version, it is infringing o n the rights of students w h o want t o drink when an event is held at a place like Enterprise."

When debate ended, the amended version was passed by a vote of six t o four.

SCMC reappoints Brown 'anchor' editor for '73-'74 The Student Communications Media Committee has reappointed Peter Brown as anchor editor for the 1973-74 academic year.

Brown, a junior political science major from Bridgewater, New Jersey has been the editor during the present semester. Assisting Brown on the editing staff will be Dave DeKok, Paul Timmer, Marcy Darin and Tom O'Brien.

In other action the SCMC decided to leave the editorship of the Milestone open in order t o allow interested students more time to apply. Anyone interested in applying for the position of Milestone editor should contact Dr. James Seeser, associate professor of physics.

New faculty members hired The a p p o i n t m e n t of Dr. Barrie Richardson, vice president and dean of the faculty at Bethany College in West Virginia, to the position of chairman of the department of economics and business administration at Hope was announced Wednesday by Dean for Academic Affairs Morrette Rider.

RICHARDSON will take over the chairmanship from Associate Professor of Economics Dr. Douglas Heerema, who has held that position since 1970. Heerema had earlier indicated his interest in devoting more time t o various research projects concerning the industrial revolution which he developed while on leave in London during the fall semester.

Richardson graduated f r o m Carleton College in Minnesota in 1955 with a major in history. He received his Master of Business Administration and his doctorate in Business Administration f r o m Indiana University.

I N 1967, he became Assistant to the President at Oberlin College under a fellowship from the American Council on Education and the Ford Foundation. He returned to Bethany as Dean of the Faculty in 1968 and was m a d e Vice President in 1970.

Stewart seeks students to assist in orientation Upperclass students are needed by the Academic Dean's Office to assist with academic advising during freshman orientation next fall, according t o Associate Dean for Academic Affairs John Stewart.

Students who sign up will need to be on campus Monday morning, August 27. Interested Hopeites may pick up an application form in Stewart's office.

Rider also announced the appointment of three new assistant professors.

BARBARA Jane Barker will join the faculty of the department chemistry, replacing Dr. David Klein, professor of chemistry and chairman of the d e p a r t m e n t , w h o will be on a full year's leave performing research at Oak Ridge National Laboratories, and Dr. Eugene Jekel, professor of chemistry, who will devote one-half of his time to the newly-developed position of Director of Research and Academic Development.

Barker is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati, and received her Ph.D. degree from the same institution. She presently holds a post-doctoral research position in chemistry at the University of Kentucky.

PHILIP Greenberg will join the faculty of the music d e p a r t m e n t , teaching violin, viola, chamber music, and music education.

Greenberg has been teaching at Hope during the past year on a part-time a p p o i n t m e n t along with several other assistants filling the position vacated by Dr. Harrison Ryker in 1972.

Greenberg, a native of Detroit, held a position on the faculty of Olivet College during 1970-71. He also taught at the National Music Camp at Interlochen, Michigan.

GREENBERG received his Bachelor's degree from Indiana University and Master's degrees f r o m the University of Michigan in conducting and violin. He has studied violin under Harry Farbman, concertmaster of the St. Louis Symphony, Joseph Gingold, concertmaster of the Cleveland Orchestra, and Tadeusz Wronski of the Warsaw Conservatory.

Greenberg has worked with Janos Starker and William Primrose in the field of chamber music.

Greenberg has recently been appointed concertmaster of the

by Chris Liggett Tuesday's meeting of the Administrative Affairs Board found the necessary quorum in attendance and ratified the proposal to keep the Student Communications Media Committee in existence. This was one of the proposals made by the Committee on Committees, headed by Professor of Religion Lambert Ponstein.

PRESIDENT Gordon Van Wylen's request to perpetuate the President's Advisory Committee was accepted. This committee was originally formed to help Van Wylen in his first year of service at Hope. The committee's functions will include consideration of long range goals, formulation of policy and the added responsibility of participating in departmental reviews.

I counted 229 beer cans, including only those which were conspicuous and near the road.

HUMILIATION is the best weapon to use against litter-bugs. A friend of mine who works in a gas station knows how to prevent litter. A guy once drove up t o the pumps and emptied his ash tray o n t o the service area. My friend brushed the butts and ashes into a dust pan and dumped them into the back seat of the Cadillac.

Current members of this committee are Associate Professor of Religion Elton Bruins, Associate Professor of Education James Bultman, David Meyers, associate professor of psychology, George Ralph, assistant professor of theater, and Professor of Chemistry Sheldon Wettack.

DAVE VanderWel, -assistant director of admissions, represented the Religious Life Committee in their recomendation that the committee be kept alive. They also recommended that the committee be enlarged by one faculty member and six students, and that the representative from the Dean of Students be eliminated after the addition of Chaplain Hillegonds.

The AdAB accepted the proposal after deciding that the additional six people need not be students and that they would not become members of Student Congress.

SIX of the eleven members of the Teacher Education Committee voted to abolish their committee.

Dean Bryson, associate professor of education, spoke on behalf of the committee and said that the members felt that their work was a duplication of the education department's efforts.

The AdAB voted to approve abolishment and sent the proposal to the Academic Affairs Board for final acceptance.

Kooiker graduated from Northwestern University and holds his Master's and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Rochester.

He replaces Associate Professor of Music Dr. Robert Ritsema who will be on sabbatical leave the entire year for research in renaissance and medieval music instruments in England.

PROFESSOR OF Physics Dr. Richard Brockmeier, a Hope graduate who holds his Master's and Ph.D. degree from California Institute of Technology, has been named acting chairman of the department of physics for the fall semester of 1973, replacing Professor of Physics Dr. Harry Frissel who will be on leave to research at Arizona State University.

TELEVISION stations traditionally schedule their best shows t o run at the same time. In filling out next year's class schedule I got the impression that the registrar's office uses the same technique.

Classes that are i m p o r t a n t , stimulating and relevant are all held at the same time. The system prevents the student from getting t o o excited and overheating his brain.

With the recent exposure of many art masterpieces as forgeries one must admire the foresight of Michelangelo. No imitator even came close t o pawning off a fake of the Sistine Chapel.

Human being GIVE A DAMN. In huge letters, the slogan stares at the crowd in Yankee Stadium. The sign is plastered on the outfield wall, pleading for responsible citizens to act on the serious problems facing American society. But as the fans chug their beer and scream at the umpire, the sign becomes less prominent until it blends in with the stadium clock.

anchor editorials Once this semester at Hope College, some students rallied behind a man whom they believed was being unjustly dismissed.

They broke away from their own world to express, t h e ^ c o n c e r n for a fellow human being. Some observed the pine grove rally as a mere social event or a nostalgic regression into the activist-oriented late '60s. But to those who took an active part, it was a small but sincere approach.

At the protest, the students agreed to continue their effort until Dean of Students Robert DeYoung reversed his decision to oust Director of Student Activities John Jackson.

In his essay concerning A. J. Muste in last week's anchor Merlin Whiteman urged students to consider donating money toward the construction of a humanities hall named for the great pacifist.

This is an admirable idea.

But why look far into the future for a humanities hall named after Muste when an unnamed one presently exists at Hope?

Following completion of the Peale Science Center and some renovative work, the present science building will become a humanities and social sciences building.

Why not rename it after Muste?

Of course, the reverse logic so recently employed here with the Peale Science Center could prevail again and dictate that the building be named after some scientist.

But seriously, Hope has a moral obligation to establish some kind of memorial to this man who devoted his entire life to the

struggle for peace and justice in the world.

Muste is perhaps the most distinguished American pacifist of the 20th century.

What better way to honor him and keep his spirit alive than by naming a humanities building after him and perhaps establishing a lecture series featuring speakers whose views are similar to Muste's?

This will not be an easy step for the Board of Trustees, who make these decision, to take. The word pacifist is synonymous with coward in the more conservative segment of Middle America, some of whom send both their children and money to Hope. It seems ironic that it would be difficult to name a building after a man who strove wholeheartedly for world peace, but that is the way things are in America.

We hope the Board takes the hard road and decides to name the building after the man who was the perfect embodiment of Christ's command, 'Love thy neighbor.'

Readers speak out

Indians defended In December of 1890, U.S. troops massacred between 2 0 0 and 300 Indian men, women and children in what was to be the last battle for control of the American West at Wounded Knee.

Today, in 1973, another battle is being fought at Wounded Knee, South Dakota.

This battle is for the rights and broken promises the Indian nation have long been

dear editor denied. White Americans have t o o long ignored the plight of the American Indian.

It seems the Indians have some sort of absurd notion that since they were here before us, they have some claim u p o n the land. But is this so absurd? Is it absurd to ask for an equal chance? In this land founded upon the concepts of f r e e d o m and inalienable rights, is it absurd to ask for what only a white majority now enjoys?

The discontent and indignation of this group at Wounded Knee are indicative that a change is needed. The leaders and the people of this country must re-examine their values and beliefs. These concepts and moral obligations must be recognized and applied t o all h u m a n beings.

We can no longer reserve the right to be a human with dignity and self-respect for only a few. Creed, race, or color cannot and do not determine the worth of the individual.

Just as you or I demand consideration and the chance to live full of opportunities, so too do the Indians. Russell Means, one of the leaders of the American Indian Movement, said "The white man has never allowed us to try and solve our problems.

What we want is the right to be wrong."

Violence can never be condoned, but something must be very wrong with our society if it is only through violence that the minorities in this country can make themselves heard.

I am ashamed and angry at being a member of a white majority which continues to close its eyes to the poverty and

who are they g o i n g to name J.:he old s c i e n c e b u i l d i n g after?

When we returned from spring break, reliable sources indicated that DeYoung was reconsidering his action. Wednesday, Jackson told the anchor that DeYoung had not changed his mind. The indication is that DeYoung was stalling in order to make the final dismissal quietly after students had left for the summer. In this way he would avoid another uncomfortable situation.

Evidently DeYoung did make the correct strategic move. As students waited and rumors circulated that Jackson might be rehired, the efforts of protest became disorganized. The frustration of powerlessness felt by those who were truly concerned resulted in whay some more cynical people might label "apathy."

But there is a clear distinction between people who feel powerless yet concerned, anti those who can be motivated only by their selfishness. It is the difference between a frustrated Christian and one whose capacity to care is destroyed by his own self-interest.

To persons who think only of themselves our words can have no impact. But to those who feel choked by their lack of power, perhaps Ernest Hemingway said it best: "A man can be destroyed but he cannot be defeated."

"And I can see that something else died there in the bloody mud, and was buried in the blizzard. A people's dream died there. It was a beautiful dream... the nation's hope is broken and scattered.

Jackson: 9 'Thank you This letter is a meager a t t e m p t to express my gratitude f o r all the moral support you have given me since it was learned that my contract with the college would not be renewed. Many of you went to great lengths to speak out in my behalf through interviews, the rally, the petition and o t h e r means. Others stopped by my office or stopped me in a corridor t o share words of encouragement.

All this has indicated t o me that you feel I conducted m y job with the students' interests as a high priority. This, t o me, is a more important evaluator than a raise in pay, a p r o m o t i o n or even j o b security.

Throughout these two years my most pleasurable experiences have come through the association and relationships I have established with students, faculty and staff members. Among you are some of the most sensitive and easy to love people I have ever encountered. You accepted me for what I represented and made not the slightest attempt to rip off my identity.

Although all the good vibrations and efforts y o u mustered were not "enough" to change my predicament, they were MORE than enough to convince me that these two years were not wasted.

For these and all things, I love you and thank you.

Summer of 73

"Daddy, tell me again what it was like in 1973 when anyone who wanted to could drive a car."

"1 KNOW you're not going to believe this, son, but all you had to do was drive up to a gas station and say to the attendant, 'Fill 'er up.' And you know what? He had to wipe your windshield, too, or you wouldn't buy any gas f r o m h i m . " "Aw, come on Daddy, you're putting me o n . " "I'M TELLING the truth, son. And not only that but we used to have these big c a r s - t h r e e times the size of the ones you see n o w - w i t h four doors and air conditioning and everything. Some of them got 9, 10 miles to a gallon. I think there are some pictures of them in the encyclopedia here."

"Gosh, those were some cars."

"IN THOSE days you could drive your car to work or to the city all alone without violating the law. You'd see people in eight-passenger station wagons all by themselves."

"Is it true you could drive ro ine oeacn or to the mountains or a football game 100 miles away without getting a special pass f r o m the Automobile A u t h o r i t y ? " "YUP. One time your mother and I drove all the way to Florida, and we didn't have to ask permission from a soul. We just went."

"What happened. D a d d y ? " "NOBODY really knows. People just kept using up gasoline and oil until there was none left. I remember in '73 Detroit announced it had had its greatest year.

Sold more big cars than any time in its history.

"But n o b o d y bothered t o tell Detroit there would be nothing to put in the big gas tanks. They said it wasn't their problem. " I T WAS really f u n n y because in Washington they were arguing a b o u t automobile pollution and the emission standards for 1976 when, in fact, the problem solved

itself. There was no fuel left t o pollute anything."

"Why didn't Detroit build smaller cars that w o u l d n ' t use so m u c h gasoline?"

"BECAUSE they said Americans . w o u l d n ' t go for it. They said Americans had always had big cars, and they deserved big cars because big cars were what made America great. Of course now they have no choice but to m a n u f a c t u r e two-cylinder automobiles because t h a t ' s the only kind of car Americans can afford. I mean when gas is selling for $9.50 a gallon and you've got rationing coupons, n o b o d y in his right mind is going t o make a /owr-cylinder car."

"Is that why we moved back t o the city, because you couldn't drive t o work any more?"

"YUP. We lived in the suburbs when you were very little, but when the country ran out of gasoline we had t o move back here. Oh, I tried bicycling to work, but it was 4 0 miles each way and I was pretty pooped by the time I got home. So we came back. And it was curious because up until that time the blacks lived in the cities and the whites lived in the suburbs. " N o w , , of course, all the whites live in the cities and the blacks live in the suburbs because t h a t ' s the only housing the blacks can afford. The blacks didn't want to go t o the suburbs, but the whites kept buying up the ghettos and the blacks had no choice.

They're probably happier out there, anyway, living among their own k i n d . " "WHO WAS to blame for our running out of gasoline?"

"Detroit blamed it on Ralph Nader, the President blamed it on Congress, the Arabs blamed it on Israel and the oil companies blamed it on the caribou in Alaska."

"IT MUST have been f u n living in 1973."

"It was. Do you k n o w one time we drove 30 miles just to have a sirloin steak?"

"What's a steak?" " O h , the hell with it. It hurts too much t o talk about it."

anchor review

'Birthday Editor's note: this week's anchor review is written by former Hope student Donald Steele. He reviews The Birthday Party, directed by John Tammi. The play will run until May 3.

Personally I d o n ' t like reviews.

I always make up my own mind anyway. I've found that most people do. In the end everyone thinks what he wants.

1 FOUND the production neither really good nor really bad. It was o k a y . I have to admit that I didn't understand all of the play, but it could have been clarified more by the director.

As for the physical direction of the play, it got tedious. People walked around in the same pat-

Party': Good staging of difficult play terns when they delivered their speeches. If this was intended as a means to show how repetitious their lives were, it should have been made more obviously a dramatic device. It also seemed as though everyone did move when they had a lot t o say.

THERE WERE nice moments, especially between Kevin O'Connor and Steve Evans. They made a nice combination on the stage. 1 enjoyed O ' C o n n o r ' s lumbering movement. The repartee between the two men was well handled. I think their physical direction while baiting Weber could have been more, working more with the verbal movement. They were good choices as the slicker and his henchman.

The acting on t h e whole was good, even, and not dominated by any one person. I f o u n d it hard t o establish Meg's relation with Weber because her makeup did little to age her t o any degree. I thought they were lovers when he first appeared. Wendy Holmes was good to a point.

HER C H A R A C T E R was welldefined and acted, but her voice patterns got tiresome. That can be worked on later if she decides to go on with further acting. All in all her performance was good. 1 do t h i n k - s h e could have taken more time in between speaking her lines. .However, she was fun, and we all know her type.

to reser the set, putting everything back into order.

THE SET WAS good, portraying a run-down boarding house that has seen several lives and styles. I would have liked t o have seen more furniture and knickknacks placed around. I'm sure Meg is a collector and would have everything out on display.

The costumes were good. 1 think Meg's could have been fuss-

ier, with her wearing jewelry, then taking it off, and putting it on again.

All in all, it isn't a bad production. It is put on; the acting is generally good. It is a hard play to produce simply because it is a hard piece to understand. But this was not a disaster, or a failure. It was also nice to know that Hope students can act a difficult play successfully.

.

Bill TeWinkle was Weber and had a difficult part to play. 1 don't think he was entirely successful with his portrayal. I didn't get a sense that he really was as frustrated and angry as he showed us he was. After a year of Meg and boredom, I think he should have been more desperate. Anyway, it was a hard part to play. 1 don't know what he could do to improve his performance.

%

SAND1 COWLES was enjoyable, but she did have problems using her arms when she didn't know what to do with them.

When she was totally in command, she was very good. 1 liked her a lot.

As Petey, Steve Britton was good. He had a nice pace about him. It was a good idea using him

AS ASSISTANT Professor of History G. Larry Penrose told those attending the campus memorial service for the victims of the downed airliner, America's staunch political and economic support of Israel indicates acknowledgment that Jews still retain a legitimate claim to Palestine, undiminished by almost 2,300 years of absence.

Zionists'] existence is surely a lash for the Christian Church. We may squirm and wriggle as much as we like, but we cannot escape the charge that Zionism would never have been if we had not persecuted the Jews."

I think it especially tragic that Christians in this country have let themselves be impelled into supporting another f o r m of persecution, this time directed against the Palestinian Arabs, WHEREAS Christians should be the conscience of the w o r l d its " y e a s t , " causing it to rise to greater heights of b r o t h e r h o o d , morality — and compassion-it seems certain that we are today afraid to take up the part of the Palestinians because we d o n ' t care to risk being called anti-Jewish.

(Anti-Semitic doesn't apply here, since Arabs and Jews are both Semitic peoples.)

Our consciences have become attuned merely to the thoughts of men, rather than to the dictates of God, a fact which shows once again how m u c h we stand in need of His strength, mercy and compassion.

THE A V E R A G E office call costs six dollars. When asked if his office had reduced rates f o r students, Dr. James Chamness, a member of the Hope clinic staff, replied, "We do give reductions on an individual basis, but not just because they are s t u d e n t s . " In addition to outside office visits, students must pay for certain medications and all shots administered by the clinic. Blake explained that " m o s t of these shots cost one dollar, including allergy shots." Cholera and t y p h u s shots are $1.50. Given in a private physician's office, these injections are usually two or three dollars.

CERTAIN medications are free at the clinic, including PAC (phenacetin-aspirin-caffeine) a pain pill, aspirin and milk of magnesia. In addition, such supplies as crutches and wheel chairs are lent free of charge, but Blake added that a bill is sent if " t h e materials are not returned for a long time."

One clinic policy which appears to upset students is the required cash payment for all medication before it is given to the student. In explaining the rationale for such a policy, Blake commented that it "saves on bookwork and gives the student the assurance of getting the best medicine at cost."

Editorial criticized

Walchenbach de fended continued from page 4 In last week's anchor (April 20), an editorial criticized Cathy Walchenbach for the stand she took on the off-campus drinking proposal which was submitted to the Campus Life Board. I think that this criticism was unfair for three reasons.

First, the editorial stated that Cathy "ignored the expressed desire of 86 percent of the student body she is supposed t o represent." But because there are five students on the CLB, it seems proper that one of them (Cathy) should speak for the 14 percent of the student body who did not favor the proposal.

Secondly, the editorial continued by saying that Cathy's rationale "maintains that students do not know what is best for them-student opinion should therefore be disregarded." I hope that the anchor by this statement does not believe that majority opinion is necessarily right.

For example, the majority of Americans at one time believed that this country should be in the Vietnam war. But was that a reason why no one should have attempted t o end the war? Of course not. Similarly, I think that student opinion should be highly considered, not disregarded.

But because majority opinion is not necessarily right, Cathy and other elected representatives, not student opinion, must dictate college policy.

Thirdly, the editorial intended.

it seemed to me, to persuade students not to vote for Cathy on the basis of this one issue. This is unfair because Cathy is a responsible, competent person who is well qualified to hold office. The fact that she voted against the proposal in the face of peer pressure tells of the strength of Cathy's personality.

I was pleased to learn that the Hope student body perceived the editorial's unfair criticism and reelected Cathy to the CLB. Carl Folkert

Hope's 3-ring circus Well, here we are again, boys and girls (and children of all ages), with our last anchor, signaling the end of another school year. I hope you've enjoyed our little show: In the First Ring, we had President Van Wylen and his sidekick Norman, w h o did their famous magic act of making two bio professors disappear, even though 90 percent-plus of the kiddies didn't like the trick.

And in the Third Ring, we had the little kiddies, yes, you yourselves! Watch in wonderment as the young clownies walk out on Ravi Shankar, say "Siegel W h o ? " and won't even show up to a free Clark Terry concert tonight. And you ask why we can't get anybody except Ricky Nelson?

But for the big attraction (we saved the best for last), we had

the well-tanned Smilin' Dino De Young, and his Clown of a Different Color, John Jackson! See J.J. get kicked around by Dino and, for the final attraction, Dino will make J.J. walk out of the ring without a fight, even though more people signed a petition to keep J.J. than voted in the whole student election.

Well, boys and girls, the clock on the wall tells us it's time to go . . . d o n ' t forget, same time, same place next year!

And remember, this whole show wouldn't have been possible without you.

The student explained, "I waited for an hour and walked out. I didn't see the doctor and did not buy the medicine he had prescribed after looking at my reports. The doctor was some kind of q u a c k . " DEYOUNG was responsible for initiating the clinic's council of doctors five years ago. He hopes to improve the clinic by securing the services of more specialists.

Dr. Chamness, agreeing with DeYoung, stated, "What we hope to improve is our ability to utilize the OB-GYN (Obstetrician-gynecologist) for the hirls, either by including one on the staff, or by improving our referral service."

DeYoung added that seVeral GLCA colleges have made inquiries about Hope's health clinic, including Albion, Calvin, Alma and Adrian.

Prayer for graduates

by Bob Van Voorst Father of all men, hear our prayer for graduates.

We thank you for the enthusiasm they have shown as students: their eager curiosity, their seriousness of purpose, their scholarly abilities.

We t h a n k y o u f o r giving t h e m a share of the divine love: a c o m m i t m e n t t o others, a vision of service, and a genuine concern for persons as your children.

We t h a n k y o u for their response t o the high calling of y o u r Son Jesus Christ: a life of faith, a prospect of hope, and a love which can fill their lives with y o u r peace.

Grant, O Lord, that their lives will be a f r u i t f u l harvest f o r all those w h o have planted seeds of promise in their lives:

T H E R E HAVE been cases in the past where students were unable to finance medical bills. Dean of Students Robert DeYoung reported that in these instances "arrangements were made with the Business O f f i c e . " He added that a portion of the student activity fee is allotted to the clinic's budget.

Some student concern has also been voiced over the availability of doctors at the clinic. One co-ed suggested, " T h e r e should be a doctor there all the time. People don't get sick just on T u e s d a y . " ALTHOUGH THE clinic urges students to make appointments to see the doctor on Tuesday, this is not true in all cases. One frustrated student reported that although he had made no formal appointment, he was told by the nurse to see the doctor on duty at the clinic the next day.

parents, professors and friends. Help our graduates t o realize their obligations to those w h o have invested their lives in them.

Teach them to convert their y o u t h f u l idealism to mature, yet confident, realism.

May they not try t o control their world before they have gained control of themselves. Grant that t h e y may build their lives on a sure f o u n d a t i o n of personal integrity.

Lastly, we pray that, although they will leave the campus of Hope, they may never lose the spirit of Hope. May t h e best fruits of the learning and living they have d o n e on this campus be their guides t o t h e end of their lives, and grant that, when life's pilgrimage is t h r o u g h , all their h o p e will b e fulfilled in life eternal. Amen.

As in Dutchmen to place in more than past years, a team trophy will be awarded. one event. He finished second in There are two things wrong with this format that the triple j u m p with a distance of the intramural committee has come up with. First, 43 feet and placed fourth in the individuals still can't participate in May Day track events. Field events should be run on an individual basis to allow for the off-campus student who might not have contact with three other persons who like to put the shot, for example.

SECONDLY, the committee will never cut out the competitiveness until they do away with the team championship. Hope intramurals in the past have tended to be more competitive (not necessarily quality wise) than varsity sports. However, a lot of that competition has been unhealthy.

The intramural committee has expanded May Day to include four "novelty events" this year. First on the agenda is a frisbee throw for distance. This will be open to all students and faculty. In this event, contestants will throw a numbered frisbee in unison.

A SECOND EVENT will be a bike race. Like the frisbee throw, this event will be open to both students and faculty. The race will start and finish on the Van Raalte Field track and cover a distance of around a mile and a half.

Jarts competition is the third new event. Entries in this contest will be made up of one faculty Hope relay man receives the baton a step ahead of his nearest Olivet member and one student. Rules and scoring are as contender in a track meet against the Comets Wednesday at Van Raalte yet undetermined, but it will definitely be a single field. elimination t o u r n a m e n t .

THE FOURTH new event is a water balloon throwing contest. Again, this event will feature faculty-student teams.

These events are slated to be interspersed between the regular running events of the day. All individuals or teams desiring to compete in any of the four events should be signed up by four o'clock of the day before May Day. Sign-up lists are in the physical education office.

RUNNING AND field events held in the past will again be run this year. Rules also will be the same as last year.

Gene Brown emphasized in another interview that all questions of eligibility should be settled before May Day, not on the day of the event or the next day. Lists of participants will be available in the physical education office and should be checked if questions do exist.

WHILE I WAS talking with Coach Smith, I asked him about recruiting and his recruits for next year.

He noted that he has had the best recruiting for football since he came to Hope.

"I don't know whether it was our record, or our players telling friends about our program, or whether the MI A A is gaining respect among high school coaches who simply would rather see one of their players play in the MIAA, than sit on the bench somewhere else."

SMITH HAD a list of the players he had contacted and/or showed the campus to. He was reluctant to name anybody, because "some are just beginning to indicate a preference, often only verbally. I would rather wait till they indicate a financial decision."

One could tell it was a good list, for he said if Hope could get just half of the players on the list, they would be helped quite a bit next fall.

Because of the increase in number of students out for football. Hope will institute a junior varsity program next year. No matter what his class, any football player will be allowed to participate in this program. The jayvee team will let those players who see little action on Saturday get in some playing time and possibly show the coaches what they really can do.

The jayvee team will play two games next year.

One game is scheduled against MIAA foe Kalamazoo, and to be played at Kalamazoo. A second game will be played against Grand Valley, this game to be played at Van Raalte Field.

300 acres at stake

Dunes' fate undecided

by Tom O'Brien The Laketown Township Board of Appeals has yet to announce it's decision on granting a variance in the twonship zoning codes and permit development of a 300 acre wooded dune plot surrounding and including the Carousel Mountain Ski Area.

IN A MEETING held March 29, Carousel Recreation Equities Inc. requested a zoning code exception be granted to allow the construction of a year-round recreational facility primarily consisting of 1,881 housing units.

CRE originally tried to have land rezoned south of the Carousel Ski Area (see anchor March 16, 1973) for commercial use to allow for a shopping center nd gas station but dropped the request in its revised proposal.

ATTORNEYS representing the residents opposed to the proposed development cited the congestion that would be caused by the high density of the living units and the increased traffic. They also noted the lack of immediately available water and sewage facilities.

Richard Van Laar, an engineer from Grand Rapids testifying for the citizens opposed to the plan, submitted drawings depicting the terrain of the area and said that much of the sand would have to be removed to allow for the construction as proposed. He stated that this removal could mean the destruction of much of the trees and general vegetation.

VAN LAAR then presented his own plan for development. These plans allowed for minimal terrain alterations within the zoning code and grade requirements. From •Kocp drawings Van Laar estiid that 350 housing units d be built. )r. John Lamb, a civil engineer n Wayne State University, said was committed to working h the developers in retaining re than 80 percent of the trees J vegetation. He also claimed

VanLaar overestimated the amount of sand that would have to be removed and that the removal of large amounts would not present a problem.

HOLLAND BOARD of Education Treasurer Charles Bradford took issue with CRE's statements concerning the impacts of taxes and potential students on the school system. Bradford chiefly questioned whether one-third of the purpose dwellings would be permanently occupied as purported by the developers. .

Dr. Edward Helbing, resident of Laketown Township, submitted 135 signatures to the Board of residents opposed to the development in addition to the 4 0 0 signatures he submitted at the March 1 meeting.

DR. SAM Greydanus asked that the dunes be saved and pointed to a Department of Natural Resources publication which claims that much of Lake Michigan's shoreline is in danger because of development.

Leonard Hoffius, a Grand Rap-

ids attorney representing CRE, said that granting the request for variance and exception to the building codes did not constitute a building permit but allowed the developers to conduct surveys and develop more specific plans. He added that township action would determine the availability of water and sewer service to the area.

Township attorney John Bauckham, who conducted the meeting, announced that the Board of Appeals would meet at a later date to consider the testimony and reach a decision.
