Spice And Crumbs

Chronic Gripitis?

Review of P & M Plays

In considering the success of an educational program, we find that the attitudes of the students play an important and significant role. Since it is our purpose to question, let us then examine these attitudes on our own campus.

It is quite obvious from listening to student conversations and studying student reactions that many of us have a habit of complaining, or criticising, as the case may be. The question then arises whether we are criticising in order to improve a situation or whether we have been overcome by chronic gripitis.

Before examining these feelings, it first is necessary to make a few basic assumptions. We must agree that constructive criticism and carefully thought out questioning is the basis os intellectual freedom and, therefore, its privileges are are granted to all students attending democratic institutions. We might also agree that constant complaining just to be griping is an immature emotional reaction.

In addition, it would be advisable to consider the source of a griping attitude though it is difficult to single out any one cause for a spirit of complaint. It might, however, be the result of one of two things or a combination of both: either an insipid, inconsistent program on the part of one or more departments on campus; or a laziness on the part of students who react by conforming to a rationalizing process—"If one subject is poorly planned, probably others are too, so I'm not to blame for my low grades.

So this question remains: are we always justified in our criticisms of educational programs, religious affairs, and social climate? When we criticize, do we also include suggestions and then act on those suggestions? Or do we complain because we think it is smart or sophisticated to gripe?

In criticizing, have we lost the true feeling toward our college ?

Have we overlooked its good points, ignored its assets, and blinded ourselves by petty complaints and minor controversies ?

After we have thus questioned ourselves, there remains a challenge. The honest, mature person is dared not to be overcome with the ominous cloud of complaint, but to push on to more important, more significant things and ideas. The person overcome with chronic gripitis is urged to act to improve the situations that he doesn't like, for action is the best therapy for this disease.

Bite The Dust A certain amount of sham is inevitable. Everyone pretends a little: to himself, to his friends, to the whole world. We at Hope are probably no worse in that respect than anybody else.

And usually that is where the matter is dropped. We are no worse. Nobody else is any better than we are.

But. Maybe we pretend in a different way. Perhaps here in the world of sham and let's pretend we can discover that we are unique: let us examine hypocrisy.

A pretty word, hypocrisy. Convenient and not too hard to spell. So easy to use even a child can do it.

Children do use it. It is not hard to nod the head significantly and damn someone or something as an example of hypocrisy. To use the word is a kind of badge, a certificate that the wearer is "in", enlightened, and under nobody's thumb.

This is one of our most precious little pretensions. But to pass judgements on the hypocrisy that, we must grant, is certainly there to be judged, is to accept the risk of suddenly becoming the defendant rather than the judge.

So of course this editorial cannot continue.

Treated As Adults In years past as we have walked through the ivy covered walls of Hope College, we have been embittered over our treatment as children instead of adults. Upon returning to campus this Fall we learned that finally we were breaking through that barrier and had at least gained the status of adolescents. The progress which I am speaking of is in the realm of chapel attendance.

No longer are we greeted at chapel by a one-armed disciplinarian, but rather we are being treated as adults, being put on our honor to meet college requirement without a knife in our backs.

We as a student body, always able to jeer at the administration, should be ready to cheer them now. Already there is evidence of the one-time strong negative attitude toward chapel to be fading away. The services have become more reverent and meaningful to those in attendance. Considering all factors there could have been nothing more beneficial done for our chapel system.

Originally the purpose of this editorial was solely to praise the new system, however, almost everyone realizes its merits by now. Instead some time will be given to inform some of these pseudo-adults of our campus that chapel is still held each morning at 8:00.

By the diminishing attendance it might almost seem that the administration made a hasty decision—maybe we do need that friendly metalic handshake at the chapel door in order to find the necessary inspiration to attend this worship service.

If in this trial year we, as adult students, can not prove ourselves able to attend chapel under the new and improved system nor able to live up to our college's standards we can hardly expect the administration to continue its present plan.. Only if we give it our support and show ourselves to be the mature students which we have claimed to be for so long can we expect or hope for this system to last.

It's Your Choice - Freedom or Slavery

by Leander Wang It never did occur to me when I was a child that my native island, Quemoy, would become one of the hottest spots in the world today, nor did it ever occur to me that this small island (62.4 sq. mi.) would become one of the big issues in the 1960 campaign.

During the past two weeks, both Nixon and Kennedy have been debating at length across the nation about Quemoy and Matsu (11.3 sq. mi.) islands in opposite view-points. To be sure, Kennedy said, "I think it unwise to take the chance of being dragged into a world war over two islands which are not strategically defensible."

Nixon, on the other hand, said, "We should not force our Nationalist allies to get off them and give them to the Communists. If we do that we start a chair reaction. For the Communists aren't a f t e r Quemoy and Matsu. They are a f t e r Formosa . . . . It is the principle involved. Two islands are in the area of freedom."

From these two quotations we find the key phrases such as "being dragged into a world war", not strategically defensible," "chain reaction", "principle involved", and "area of freedom."

We also find that both candidates are raising two quite different questions.

Kennedy questions the defensibility of these islands while Nixon questions whether Americans should defend these islands or not. I shall attempt to weigh on these questions and phrases, and then answer them to the best of my judgment.

Let us lirsl Took into the history of the Western man. We find the Western man has been engaged in a long and weary struggle for freedom.

Even though he has the freedom now, yet he is now threatened by the two greatest revolutionary powers, the USSR and Communist China, he has ever encountered. His freedom is constantly threatened by a different social system which denies the fundamental freedom of man.

Khruschev says, "We will bury you," and Mao Tse-tung writes, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Yes, we are v advocates of the omnipotence of the revolutionary war, which is good and is Marxist." Where is

Pre-Medkal Society Goes National The Hope College Pre-medical Society, soon to be affiliated nationally with A E D (Alpha Epsilon Delta) the national Pre-Med Fraternity, held its first meeting of the year on Sept. 29, 1960. This was a general introductory meeting consisting of an outline of the plans f o r the coming year, an address by the President and Vice President, and a fine film: Resuscitation f o r Cardiac Arrest.

The next meeting on Oct. 27, 1960, will concern itself with the practice of Obstetrics. The Society's officers f o r the year are: Gary Vanden Berg, President; Mike Magan, Vice-President; and Merlin Kleinhuizen, Secretary-Treasurer. Any upperclass men or women interested in Medicine or Dentistry are cordially invited to attend and become members.

freedom under Communism ? and Where is peace under the aggression ?

What can the Western man do in his struggle against the rising tide of barbarity? What can he do but to possess a superior military force! Freedom depends on peace; but peace, in this nuclear age, can only be maintained by power w h i c h means devising ever more fearful nuclear weapons.

Whether he likes it or he has to choose between nuclear annihilation or render to the slavery of munism.

We have seen that the struggle f o r freedom is not only a struggle for principle, but also for survival. The struggle calls for the willingness to sacrifice and to pay the price. We have also seen t h a t power is the only way to maintain peace. We can now go back to the QuemoyMatsu issue.

raised by Kennedy on the defensibility of these islands is no longer vaild.

For if these islands are indefensible, is not West Berlin more indefensible y e t ? How about South Korea, West Germany, and Vietnam?

Would not they drag Americans into wars too?

Why bother to defend them if there is no principle involved?

What the Russians are after is the whole world, including the U.S. Are we then to keep retreating and surrendering until the Russians are satisfied?

Quemoy, Matsu and other places in the world are defensible as long as the Free World is stronger than the Russians and is willing to stand firmly against any threat.

The Free World should not encourage the Russians to take any free area by saying that it is indefensible as Kennedy is now proposing. Freedom or slavery, the choice is yours.

Hope College's Van Zoeren Library will be ready f o r use by the student body next fall.

A f t e r spending two days at the Seminary, she will be available f o r individual interviews. If you would like to talk with her, please sign up at the Durfee desk.

There is still time f o r students to apply f o r admission for the Spring Semester.

Let's push this program because not only does it help an individual mature but it helps the college to become known by many influential people and aids it in maintaining a high rating.

Why not consider coming to Washington?

Miss Joldersma will be speaking to Hope College students on Thursday at 7:30 in the Chapel basement. This will be sponsored by the women f o r Christian Service Commission of the Y. All students are invited to attend.

Dutchmen Meet Kazoo Tomorrow The "Flying Dutchmen" face Kalamazoo College tomorrow in a traditional rivalry dating back more years than many people can remember.

In fact, some people have completely forgotten about it.

Never-the-less, the Hornets, still smarting from last year's Homecoming Day defeat, by another lopsided score, 41-6, will attempt to terminate the Dutchmen streak of three victories and take home the "coveted" wooden shoes, a symbol of the rivalry since 1931.

The Kalamazoo eleven, fresh from come-from-behind victories over Olivet and Alma, has a dangerous passing combination of Quarterback Jim Smith and Don Pell, as well as a hard running halfback in Carl Betokski, which will probably result in a much closer contest than last year's rout.

Hope Harriers Edge Acqoinas The Hope College cross-country team, coached by Daryl Siedentop, defeated Acquinas College last week, in a three mile run. Although A1 Jaskowitz of Acquinas copped first place, Hope runners Van Wieren, Nyboer, Sterk took the next three positions, and Menken and Holleman aso finished in the top ten, to give the Dutchmen their second victory in a row.

Sound of Music (Cont'd from Page 1) the floats were announced. They are as follows: First place for sororities.

Sibylline Sorority (theme: "Dry Bones"), second place, Delta Phi ("Sh-boom"). First place for fraternity division, Fraternal Society ("Slaughter on Sixth Avenue"), second place. Cosmopolitan Fraternity ("I've Got A Crush On You").

The winners of the dorm and h o u s e decorations were announced at the same time and are as follows: First place in dormitory division, Kollen Dorm ("Shiek of Araby"), s e c o n d place, Voorhees Hall ("There've Been Some Changes Made On the Street Where You Lived").

In the .freshmen girl's houses division, Oggel Cottage ("Deary, Do You Remember?") won first place and Fairbanks Cottage ("Stairway To The Stars") and Taylor Cottage ("I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair") tied for second place.

The Cosmopolitan Fraternity ("Around The World In Eighty Days") won first place f o r f r a ternity house decorations and since they have won this honor three years in succession they now have permanent possession of the trophy. Second place went to the Fraternal Society ("Without A Song").

The day ended with the annual Homecoming B a l l , the theme of which was "ShangriLa." As the name implies, the setting was an oriental one, including an Oriental duo of dances and some of Hope's female students from the Orient dressed in their native attire, who served the refreshments.

The final event of a wonderful weekend was the Alumni Recital, which was presented on Sunday afternoon in the Dimnent Memorial Chapel.

Social Sidelights

Homecoming Followups Hi! With the Freshman-Sophomore Pull and the Homecoming activities out of the way, the whole campus can now look forward to the contest f o r the Nykerk Cup. Practicing is now underway and those involved are becoming increasingly aware of the short space of time before the big night.

Alpha Gamma Phi Alpha Phi was extremely proud of their sister, Sharon Crossman, when it was announced on Thursday evening that she would reign over the weekend's activities as the Homecoming Queen of 1960. — Amid all this excitement the sorority also held a luncheon at the Eten House on October 15th.

They were happy to welcome back some of the charter members. A humor paper was presented by Gail Pennington and Judy Hoffman. The sorority Quartet composed of Mary Ann Hoogenboom, Connie Kreger, Carolyn Ringenoldus, and Marti Workman closed the luncheon by singing "Sentimental Journey" and "There's A Little Street Where Old Friends Meet".

Hope man is a b o u t to be stopped by a Muskingum tackier.

Muskingum Flattens Hope 47-0 An overflow Hope College c r o w d at Riverview P a r k watched the powerful Muskingum Muskies squeeze by the "Flying Dutchmen" in the final sixty minutes of play, and hand them their first shutout in forty-seven games. As sort of an acknowledgment of this fact, the Muskies rolled up fortyseven points to disappoint a crowd of 4,800 local fans.

Few comments can be made on the' game. The visitors played the superior type of football that they were expected to play. The Muskie defense was superb, allowing no Hope drive to approach closer than the 25 yard line.

Last year's "little All-American" fullback, Bill "Cannonball" Cooper accumulated no less than three times as much yardage

than the entire Hope eleven put together. Quarterback Jim Burson scored two touchdowns and set up countless others with passes.

The fierce rushing of 6' 4" end, Don Benson, prevented a consistent passing attack by Quarterback Mack, a n d the heavy Muskingum backfield kept the Hope secondary on their toes with an effective "bellyseries". A thorough knowledge of running fundamentals, as well as sheer drive, forced the Hope defense to rely on "gang-tacking" all afternoon.

When the scoring was finished, there could be no doubt that Hope had encountered a f a r superior team. The only possible solace lay in the fact that Muskingum was only under contract for the 1960 season.

The Delphies held their Alumni Luncheon at Van Raalte's last Saturday a f t e r the game. The Barbaretts provided some of the entertainment.

The trembling pledges were let out to their masters at the Slave Sale on Monday night. Some of the duties of these lowly slaves consist of memorizing the creed, the songs, and the birthdays of the actives. This past week has been Hell-Week so the girls have been indulging in a little disciplining.

The sorority wishes to congratulate the members of the court upon being chosen to represent the school last weekend. These girls were: Bobby Russell, Carol Sutton, and Marcia Meengs. — The Delphies received Honorable Mention in the sorority float division.

On Oct. 17 the lucky actives purchased their slaves, who have really been in for it this week! Following the slave sale, the pledges were taken on a tour of the campus on their hands and knees (blindfolded of course). Refreshments were served in the sorority room. /

Sigma Sigma The men of Chi Phi Sigma honored their alumni at a banquet in the Warm Friend Tulip room on Saturday evening a f t e r the homecoming game. The five o'clock dinner was followed by a social period during which the Arkie quartet sang. The group was led in singing by Rev. Ed Viening, an Arcadian alumnus.

A f t e r the social hour the Alumni held a business meeting for the purpose of electing officers to direct Alumni activities. Vern Hoffs, class of '59 was elected president while Bill O'Donnell and Roger Garvelink were elected Eastern and Western secretary-treasurers, respectively.
