Editorials

Anchor Policy B E C A U S E O F R E C E N T misunderstandings between the ANCHOR staff and members of the student body, we find it is necessary to make a statement of ANCHOR policy. This policy serves as a guide for the selection of articles printed in the ANCHOR. We believe t h a t a college newspaper should be three things: an objective report of the news, a stimulator of student thought, and a means f o r the expression of student and f a c u l t y opinion on controversial issues.

To t h e l a t t e r end, we invite letters to the editor, which we will print if the l e t t e r does not violate good t a s t e and reasonable courtesy, if it deals with pertinent issues, and if space permits.

Decisions about the acceptability of letters will be made by the editor and editorial board.

We also invite guest editorials and g u e s t columns whose acceptability shall be judged upon the above criteria.

Likewise since we believe the ANCHOR to be a product of the students, we invite and encourage constructive criticism from the student. However, we do not feel such criticism need always be printed but, this criticism will be employed in improving the ANCHOR. We believe the ANCHOR to be a journalistic venture which exercises all r i g h t s of freedom of the press. By this freedom granted in Article I of the Constitution, the A N C H O R has not only the r i g h t to print a controversial contribution to the paper but also and of more importance the right to r e f u s e to print any contribution which the editor and editorial board feel do not reach the criteria found in this ANCHOR policy.

Evaluate Homecoming A N O T H E R HOMECOMING GOES into the Hope College annals. And with its passing, the time of evaluating its strengths and weaknesses is at hand.

The outstanding s t r e n g t h of Homecoming 1959 was the academic side of the weekend. An innovation last year. Academic Homecoming is a habit that should become a tradition. With this progressive institution becoming a p a r t of the activities, the weekend has not only become a time of value and worth f o r returning alumni but also a time of new and wider insight into the modern world f o r the student.

Yet, while the alumni and students gain f r o m the strength of the academic side of Homecoming, the student loses because a weakness exists which, if corrected, could m a k e this weekend of even more value. This weak side of Homecoming is float making.

Each year, students f r o m different societies take two weeks f r o m an eighteen week s e m e s t e r and devote this time to the construction of a material object which will last six hours. F o r two weeks each society member sacrifices academic gain to produce this p a p e r and wire masterpiece. Also, each society places $20 into this soon worthless float.

Unlike Academic Homecoming activities, float making h a s no value except a tiny trophy awarded a t half-time ceremonies during the football game. In f a c t , float making has no positive side: it consumes time, money, and t a l e n t s t h a t could be used elsewhere.

It should be discontinued.

However, m a n y people will be unwilling to do away with float making entirely as Central College did this year. P e r h a p s a n alternative is having each b r o t h e r and sister society join in building one float. P e r h a p s another alternative is changing t h e two-week float m a k i n g time to a two-week service project.

The Homecoming Committee will meet soon to evaluate this most important weekend. Now is the time f o r them to recommend t h a t we keep Academic Homecoming on a permanent basis.

Now is the time f o r them to seriously consider the value of float making during the Homecoming rush. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;N. B.

Plato and Politics; Hemlock and Coffee

by Richard John J a a r s m a When Roger first brought up the idea, we applauded it loudly, even going so f a r as to clap him on the back and congratulate him on h i s thinking. We immediately ordered another cup of coffee a n d spent the rest o f t h e e v e n i n g in wild, idealistic speculations, interspersed with resolutions to get started r i g h t away.

This was the idea: Since we spent one night a week going to Cumerford's or Vogue or Fricano's anyway, why not turn these excursions into a more profitable channel by having in mind before hand some subject around which our conversation could turn.

This way, said Roger, we could still drink all t h e coffee we wanted, and yet not waste the evening in small talk. Increasing our intellectual horizons, as Dave put it, and we agreed.

As college students we felt it necessary to examine the problems of the world instead of using our time to comment on the mannerisms of some professor, or doing imitations of the Typical Rotary Club Member.

We decided to meet again a week later a t Cumerford's and discuss the "Ideal S t a t e . " We were all to have read Plato's Republic in preparation f o r this, and we said our goodbeyes hurriedly, f o r as Jim put it, we had no time to lose. John even went so f a r as to say t h a t he, f o r one, would get started on Plato right away.

The first inkling we had t h a t everything was not going to go as smoothly as we thought, was when Roger, who t h o u g h t of the whole idea, called and said t h a t he would not be able to make it, owing to his finally having gotten a date with a girl on which he had had his eye f o r some time.

We condemned this action as being a bit thick, but our enthusiasms were not dampened at all. We, a t least, were going to spend the evening in scintillating intellectual conversation.

When we arrived a t the rest a u r a n t and had ordered, John announced t h a t because of his heavy schedule and several other things (which were not elaborated upon) he had found himself unable to read as much of the Republic as he had originally planned, but t h a t he had read a "decent amount."

This later turned out to be only two or three pages, which "turned his mind to so many avenues of new t h o u g h t " t h a t he had not been able to read f u r t h e r because of t h e elevating ideas "whirling around in my head."

Jim admitted t h a t he had also experienced this, and Dave remained strangely silent. I think he w a s t r y i n g to m a s t e r the various channels of thought in his mind too. ( I t is really amazing how the mind can assimilate a sentence of Plato and f r o m there move to new realms of ideas.)

I started t h e discussion by asking the group t o establish just what Plato's ideal state

implied. This was easy and we had not even smoked one cigarette apiece before we had outlined Plato's system.

This will show you how intellectually alive we were that evening. Then Jim made some observations on the present political system and I asked the g r o u p if they had read Ortega's Revolt of the Masses.

Dave said he had but didn't like it, and Jim said no, he hadn't but he had read a f a i r l y humorous little essay by Robert Benchley on politics. He proved this by quoting a t length f r o m the piece, sending us into paroxysms of laughter. I, in turn, quoted .a few lines f r o m Paul Jennings, and Dave told the joke about the three Greeks who walked into the b a r and said "Three hemlocks please!"

Although we had heard this, we f e l t that it deserved a good laugh, since it was in some way bound up with w h a t we were discussing. The meeting now became a lot like those easy

coffee nights we had sworn to p u t to an end, but as Roger's d a t e hadn't materialized and he f e l t it his duty to come anyway, we listened carefully as he explained Aristotle's metaphysics.

This gave him such a feeling of accomplishment t h a t he f e l t called upon to follow it up by a riotous parody of Dr. Carter (I wish you could h a v e seen it.

You would die l a u g h i n g ) .

This will give you an idea of t h e sort of thing t h a t can come out of an evening of stimulating thought.

Although the success of t h i s venture is obvious, we have decided not to do it too o f t e n , since we w a n t it to remain a new experience, and doing it every week would only take t h e excitement out of it.

So we're going back to t h e inf o r m a l coffee evenings, but as soon as someone else comes up with a good topic of consideration, we'll s t a r t again. You m a y come too. It promises to be quite a discussion.

rs Word Organization Grows Over Century Into Active Group

by Don Gallo As our college has grown in numbers and influence during the past century, so have the various campus organizations grown. When alumni r e t u r n to Hope's campus, the changes and improvements are visible for them to the g r e a t e s t degree in the campus buildings.

And those who were members of such a g r o u p as Y have no opportunity to see t h a t organization in action. To those alumni of Hope College who were active in Y, who possibly had a vision of w h a t the Y was capable of becoming, to them this article is dedicated.

In the past years the Y has developed f r o m small meditation groups to a highly organized and diversified organization.

As f a r as we know there were always two groupsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;YMCA and YWCA. Two years ago plans f o r a joint organization were developed with the expectation of having a l a r g e r and more unified program with a f u r t h e r outreach than in previous years.

The expectations became realities last year when the YMCA and YWCA met jointly and conducted all business and programs as a unified group under a joint cabinet with co-presidents and co-vicepresidents.

This was still a trial period while a new constitution was constructed. By the end of the school year the new constitution was adopted with the many changes in organization and duties.

There was no longer a need f o r joint leadership if the Y were to be a single group, and t h e new Y h a s emerged this y e a r with Diane Sluyter as president.

The f u r t h e r unity is provided f o r by the first and t h e second vicepresidents; D o n G a l l o ' s main responsibilty is public relations and t h e advancement of t h e Y, and Ron Stockhoff's responsibility is program.

There have also been minor changes in the cabinet which now h a s 16 positions filled by 22 students.

The t h r e e cabinet positions which have the widest influence on campus are Mission Drive, Deputations, and Spiritual Life Week (Religious E m p h a s i s Week of the p a s t ) .

Last y e a r $1200.00 was raised in the mission drive f o r the purchase of new books f o r t h e library at Annville Institute, Kentucky. In the s u m m e r of 1958, deputation t e a m s visited and conducted worship services and youth p r o g r a m s in 23 churches in the New J e r s e y area.

Another outgrowth of the Y, begun last year, is the commission p r o g r a m . T h e r e a r e f o u r special interest groups which meet monthly, or more o f t e n if they like, and which are a n aid in spreading the influence of Y to a g r e a t e r number of students.

Following along on the triangular Y principles of Body, Mind and Spirit, the Social, Service, Worship, and World Concerns Commissions c a r r y on a wide vaiety of p r o g r a m s : ski and canoe trips, service a t Prestatie Huis, C h i c a g o work camps, conducting devotions in the dining-halls, and a one-half hour Sunday a f t e r n o o n radio p r o g r a m on WTAS. The worship commission last year set the wheels in motion f o r w h a t developed into t h e allcollege r e t r e a t l a s t weekend a t Camp Geneva. The weekend was successful and, with continued support, will be an annual event.

The regular Tuesday evening meetings and t h e many additional p r o g r a m s carried on by Y have been the result of the work and p r a y e r s of m a n y students over the y e a r s to present a religious p r o g r a m which is now geared to the religious concepts and t h e needs of students in the twentieth century.

As I See It

A N C H O R

by Ron Chandler

Trend Towards Socially Oriented Conservatism It might justifiably be argued t h a t the results of t h e British general election, which returned P r i m e Minister Harold Macmillan and his Conservative P a r t y to five more years of power, is, in a certain way, indicative of a trend seen throughout much of Europe.

Though I may be reading into events an interpretation not wholly w a r r a n t e d by fact, I feel t h a t Europe generally is experiencing a r e t u r n to a popularly supported and more socially oriented conservatism.

Obviously, terms like "conservative" a n d " r i g h t i s t " are, at best, very relative and ambiguous words, as meanings change as the situations to which they apply change.

I hope, however, that I may assume a common understanding among my readers of the t e r m "conservatism" in a broad sense, as space does not permit an adequate definition.

I feel, as do also many more competent observers, t h a t Macmillan's victory constitutes a definite repudiation of the more left-wing type of Socialism which manifests itself in the Labor P a r t y p l a t f o r m (if such a p l a t f o r m still exists).

Is not the same general trend seen, in varying degrees, all over E u r o p e ? If so, what is the significance, if any, of such a trend ?

At the end of World W a r II, Europe lay in ruin a f t e r five years of the most terrible destruction ever witnessed by man. The task of social and economic reorganization was gigantic. The a r g u ment for highly regulated planned economies a t this crucial point in history was very cogent.

The f r e e nations of E u r o p e had f o u g h t a war which was f r i g h t f u l l y expensive, both in t e r m s of money and manpower, f o r a just international order. Popular opinion didn't want the struggle f o r justice to end there — it was f e l t that the time had come to fight social and economic injustice as well.

Socialist, and in many cases. Communist parties, appealed to this new desire f o r justice. In France and Italy, large and vocal Communist followings demanded a complete revision of the then existing order.

In Britain, the Labor P a r t y ' s program of nationalization and rigid economic controls added an entirely new, though austere, dimension to British democratic tradition. Only the Iberian Peninsula remained untouched by these social movements.

With the gradual r e t u r n of prosperity and economic stability, however, the many fallacies and inadequacies of Marxian and Fabian theories could be seen in a new light.

In Britain, f o r example, it was found t h a t workers were not necessarily better off or happier because t h e y were working f o r the government r a t h e r t h a n f o r private employers.

While admittedly g r e a t f o r w a r d strides were taken in the field of social welfare legislation throughout most of Europe, semi-radical a t t e m p t s at re-creating the basic social structure proved unworkable.

W h a t is often referred to as "socially modified capitalism" has come into its own, combining the best f e a t u r e s of Socialism and the f r e e enterprise system. Relative social justice has, in most European states, become a virtual reality.

At the same time, expanding opportunities f o r trade and profit are building up new and better standards of living f o r all classes in England and on much of the European continent.

In Britain, as well as in France, Germany, and Italy, various Socialist leaders have, in the past two or t h r e e years, made statements expressing doubt as to the validity of many of the formerly popular leftist remedies f o r society's ills.

Socially modified capitalism has given modern Germany the highest standard of living as well as the highest level of industrial productivity in Europe. Close behind is Great Britain, with an economy soundly booming a f t e r a few y e a r s of control by the Conservatives.

Italy, in cooperation with private corporations, is establishing new p a t t e r n s of dealing with her vast social problems, while, at the same time, slowly increasing her industrial capacity by maintaining initiative for the use of private capital. These are three, but not the only, examples.

It goes without saying that the more people have to lose, the less anxious they will be to cast about for a new method of doing things.

I think t h a t recent events are encouraging, in t h a t they seem to demonstrate t h a t progressive social action can be taken in a society which does not discard the principle of competition.

Colorless mediocrity, regimentation of human resources, and drab uniformity are not necessary to an industrial nation f o r survival. For me, this is a cause f o r no inconsiderable amount of optimism.

Dr. Zsiros Returns to Faculty After Absence

by Ed Ericson S L WEEK COMING . . .

(Cont'd f r o m page 1) the quest of relating our lives anew to unchanging values.

The externals, set-up, or organization of the week will not change much. Merely changing to a better name, does not mean t h a t the week itself will be better.

One other significant change in the structure of Spiritual Life week, is t h e addition of a p r e p a r a t o r y meditational vesper service on Sunday, November 8, which precedes Spiritual Life week.

His aim as a teacher is "to develop a good scientific spirit in the lives of my students."

But he hastens to add that "science and knowledge in themselves without f a i t h in J e s u s Christ cannot make man ha^)py."

Besides speaking English and his native H u n g a r i a n fluently.

Dr. Zsiros has also written a book in German. Other lang u a g e s which he h a s studied include Hebrew, Latin, Greek, Arabian, Syrian, Aramaic, and the Egyptian hieroglyphics.

Yet all this knowledge only accentuates the humble and loving attitude of this man of God. To put it in Dr. Zsiros' own words: "I have received everything out of the f r e e grace of God, and I am very g r a t e f u l to the good Lord f o r everything, even f o r being a citizen of America and a teacher of Hope College."

" I am a poor servant of God and nothing else. I w a n t to be nothing else but an instrument in the hand of God in the service of His everlasting Kingdom."

These are the words used by Dr. Joseph Zsiros, the new G r e e k professor, to describe himself.

Dr. Zsiros was born and reared in a small village in H u n g a ry. He attended college and theological seminary at Sarospatak, H u n g a r y . This school, founded in 1531, shortly a f t e r the Reformation, is one of the oldest Reformed colleges in Europe.

Dr. Zsiros was a professor at the theological seminary at Sarospatak f o r twenty-three years.

He spent 1924 in this country studying classical Greek at the University of Pennsylvania. The year 1931 found him in Germany a t the Berlin University, specializing in Oriental languages.

Dr. Zsiros has been residing in the United States for the last twelve years. His first four years in America he spent as an instructor in the Bible Department right here at Hope.

For the next year and a half he was the minister of the Hungarian Reformed Church, with congregations both in Milwaukee and Racine, Wisconsin. For the next six and a half years he pastored a church in Toledo, Ohio.

Now he has returned to Hope, this time as an instructor of Greek.

HOPE

Spera Sports by " T y " Kleis The one remaining component, and I believe the primary one is the 'plane' or the football t e a m members themselves.

We shall split up the team into two basic catagories, looking at one this week and the other next week. As opposed to tradition, let us be different and look first at the alert and agressive Hope college linemen.

Dick Bakker is a 205-pound junior tackle f r o m Chicago Heights, who never played prep football. Last season provided him with his first taste of the grid sport. Did: also competes in basketball and track. While serving his stint in the service his number one sport was played on the hardwood floors.

Tom Bishop is a Freshman center f r o m Muskegon Heights High School where he played under the renowned 'Okie* Johnson. Receiving all-city second-team honors, Tom is expected to give added s t r e n g t h at the middle of their fine line.

Rich " B u c k " Buckley is the dynamic 5'5" 180 pound sophomore center f r o m Detroit Northville High. Filled with desire, though the shortest man on the squad, he's an adept tackier.

Playing both guard and center "Buck" specializes in centering the ball back on punts and e x t r a point a t t e m p t s .

Ron Bush is a junior guard, who t r a n s f e r r e d f r o m Western Michigan University. He played prep ball a t Kalamazoo Central.

Bill Byrne is a F r e s h m a n guard from Holland High, where he played under ex-Hope quarterback Bill Hinga, son of Dean Hinga.

Doug Hoffman is a Freshman guard, who played f o r two years on undefeated Waukesha, Wis. High School football team.

Waukesha team won league championship and was undefeated in 1958.

John Hubbard, a f t e r t r a n s f e r r i n g f r o m Muskegon Community College a f t e r his f r e s h m a n year, experienced his first year of collegiate football. He played tackle a t Whitehall High f o r f o u r years, captaining the squad as a senior.

Bill Huibregtse is the fine co-captain and leader of the Hope *59 team. In a previous issue he was f e a t u r e d along with the other co-captain Gene VanDongen, rough and burly center.

Paul Hyink is a Freshman fullback or guard, hailing f r o m Kohler High in Wisconsin. He also plays basketball, baseball and track, appropriately nicknamed "Cage".

Ralph Jackson is a F r e s h m a n tackle who received allconference honors a t F r a n k f o r t High. He's s t r o n g and likes the g a m e rough. He played football under f o r m e r Hope tackle John Hollander, nicknamed "Bing".

Howard Jansen is a Sophomore, who was plagued by a knee i n j u r y as a Freshman. An operation earlier this year has again removed him f r o m the disabled list. Having prepped a t Caledonia, he's expected to be in their fighting for a tackle berth.

Tom Moore is a Senior tackle who prepped a t Schenectady, N. Y. He is an A r m y veteran who works hard and may help on defense, being one of the biggest men on the squad.

J a n Nienhuis is a Freshman tackle f r o m Holland High, where he received t h e M.V.P. award in '58. Named to the AllArea team, he also received All-State honorable mention. A strong competitor, J a n also plays baseball.

George Peelen is one of the main cog's in the "Stone Wall".

He is beginning his third s t r a i g h t year as regular right tackle for coaches DeVette and Brewer. George is a senior who prepped at Kalamazoo's University High, standing 6'2" and weighing 205, he's definitely one of the finest linemen in the M.I.A.A. Ty Rupp has returned f r o m Ohio S t a t e University, and will play a t the g u a r d position, r a t h e r t h a n in the backfield, where while playing a t halfback and full-back he gained Little All-American honorable mention.

Kenneth Simpson at 225 pounds, is the biggest man on the team. Ken played prep football at Coopersville under ex-Hope player Gordon Timmerman. "Sim" also made All-Kenewa third team and received All-State mention on several teams. He plays basketball, and throws the shot put well over fifty feet.

Charles Truby is a fast, tough Junior guard f r o m South Holland, Illinois, practiced all last season, but couldn't play because of inelgibility (a t r a n s f e r f r o m N o r t h w e s t e r n ) He was All-State football player in Illinois, and also Illinois wrestling champ f o r two years. He was a member of the track team last spring. Don Paarlburg, Hope's All-MIAA and All-State guard last season is Chuck's good friend.

Jim Van de W e g is a sophomore f r o m Muskegon, where f o r three years he w a s regular offensive center. His 215 pounds were utilized by Hope last year to gain him his first letter at our college.

Bruce Van Leeuwen is a sophomore f r o m Holland, playing his second year of varsity football f o r the Orange and Blue.

Seeing only occasional duty last year, he nevertheless gained valuable experience at the guard position.

These are the hard-working men who open up the gaps f o r the flashy, f a s t backs to scamper t h r o u g h f o r the T.D.'s.

Kazoo Veterans Best Hope Harriers

by J a c k Jenner The Hope College cross-count r y team was set back a t the hands of a veteran-studded Kalamazoo College squad Saturday a t the Holland American Legion Country Club by the score of 44-17.

The victors were paced by third-year m a n Russ Schelb who maneuvered the four-mile course in a neat 22:24 clocking.

The Hornets also captured the second and third place finishes as junior Dennis Fitzgerald ran the m a r a t h o n in only two seconds more t h a n Schelb while Dave W h i t t i n g h a m came home a t 22:38.

With the Homecoming backdrop, Hope's f r e s h m a n standout Fred Colvin was the 1st Dutchman to break the string, with his 23:28 time good enough to nail down f o u r t h spot.

Young Colvin gave another fine account of himself in Saturday's meet as he wrested the f o u r t h place spot f r o m Kazoo's

Ray Boylan in the final hnlfmile stretch. Sophomore Fred Overkamp ran a seventh place 24:12 course f o r the second Hope College finish.

The " K " College thinclads chalked up finishes in the fifth, sixth, eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh place slots of the initial t w e l v e point-precious places in addition to c a p t u r i n g the first t h r e e places. Hope mustered the twelfth spot on the s t r e n g t h of Dave White's 24:46 race.

Over the years, three pairs of shoes have been used f o r the coveted award.

The present ones are still in the possession of the Hornets and have not been returned.

The rivalry between t h e two teams has been tough and difficult, with Hope w i n n i n g eleven games, l o s i n g n i n e games, and t y i n g five g a m e s with the Hornets.

Hope Routs Hornets Although most of the g a m e s have been close, 1950 Kalamazoo 21-20, 1931 Hope 35-33, the biggest victory f o r Hope was this year's rout of 41-6.

With both t e a m s f u m b l i n g frequently, Hope was unable to capitalize on the breaks until the second q u a r t e r when sophomore Steve Slaugh went over for the first touchdown on a five yard plunge.

Before the q u a r t e r was over, Hope had scored three more times. F r e s h m a n Jim Shuck scampered sixteen y a r d s to bring the score to 13-0.

Hope soon gained possession of the ball a g a i n and J e r r y Hendrickson pushed over f o r the final f o u r yards. W i t h a few minutes l e f t in t h e half, Hendrickson f o r the second week in a row, demonstrated some excellent broken field running to score on a fifty-three yard j a u n t . The half concluded with Hope leading 27-0.
