'Innovative' musical to be presented Wed. The popular musical Jacques Brel ii AUve and Well and Living in Paris will be presented by the Holland Concert Association Monday, Nov. 5 at 8:15 p.m. in the Holland Civic Center as the third event in the 1973-74 Great Performance Series.

Michel art work shown at Wooster College this month Delbert Michel, associate professor of art, is presenting a oneman show of paintings, drawings and prints at Wooster College in Ohio through Nov. 15.

The 21 works in the show were completed by Michel during his year as exchange teacher at the Portsmouth College of Art in England. The exhibit represents Michel's reaction to the English people, their landscape and their way of life.

The production, presented by the Alive Company, is in its second tour year to college and university communities.

The Great Performance Series is co-sponsored by the Holland Concert Association and Hope.

Admission will be $3.50 for adults and $2.00 for students.

Jacques Brel, a native Belgian and the author of nearly 300 songs, is one of the most popular singer-composers in France. Marlene Dietrich has called him "the greatest singer in the world." During the past few years Brel has given up performing to concentrate on song-writing, with ^ the exception of his own production of Man of La Mancha, which he adapted into French and acted and sang its title role in Paris with huge success.

Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris opened a fouryear run in New York in 1968.

The Village Voice called the production "the most influential and innovative musical of many years."

Genesis and ecology

OF

by Bob Van Voorst God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase, fill the earth and subdue it, rule over the fish in the sea, the birds of heaven, and every living thing that moves upon the earth." ^ Genesis 1:28 Perhaps no problem of our day has been viewed with greater seriousness than the problem of pollution and environmental ruin. Although the concern generated during the events of Earth Day 1970, has cooled,^ largely channeled into political action, education, and scientific research, an ecological crisis of graVfe proportions is still, with us. ..

IT IS NOW time t o take a second look at some of the arguments advanced during the heat of recent debate. Especially interesting and important among these arguments is the contention that the Biblical view of man's relationship to the world has made man a manipulator and destroyer of his environment. This contention is the subject of today's column.

The first person t o effectively expound the idea that the Biblical view of man's role in the control of nature is responsible for making man the master and despot over nature was the historian Lynn White.

WRITING IN the March 10, 1967, issue of Science, White laid a charge at the feet of Christianity, a charge echoed in many subsequent essays.

He claimed, in brief, that the Biblical teaching on man's relationship to nature, "not only established a dualism of man and nature but also insisted that it is God's will that man exploit nature for his proper ends."

Citing Genesis 1:28, with its command that man "fill the earth and subdue it," White concluded that Christianity bears "a huge burden of guilt" for its application of this command, an application which, he claims, is responsible for our present ecological plight.

WHITE'S ARTICLE enjoyed great popularity. It was reprinted in the Earth Day manual, The Environmental Handbook, where it was disseminated to the entire environmental action movement.

Other essays in the Handbook also picked up this theme, deprecating the Christian view of man's relationship to the world.

CHRIST'S

P E O P L E

Taking a closer look at White's understanding of Scripture, we see that his attitudes rest on a very limited and incomplete examination of the Bible.

SINGLING OUT Genesis 1:28 as the most important of Biblical references to this subject, he naively assumes that it can be properly understood without a thorough contextual study of the entire Biblical witness on this subject. It is this shabby scholarship which leads White to this false, harmful, and dangerous conclusion.

What, then, is the Bible's view of man's relationship to nature? First and foremost, man is a steward of this world. Since "the^earth is the Lord's," man is responsible to God for his actions. Man was placed in this Garden, not to destroy it, but to "till and SECOND, THE Bible clearly distinguishes between the proper use of nature and the wanton destruction of nature which we see about us, as illustrated by Deuteronomy 20:19-20: When you are at war, and lay siege to a city for a long time in order to take it, do not destroy its trees by taking the axe to them, for they provide you with food; you shall not cut them down.

THE TREES of the field are not men that you should besiege them. But you may destroy or cut down any trees that you know do not yield food, and use them in siegeworks against the city that is at war with you, until it falls.

WHEN WE SET Genesis 1:28 against the background of the total context of Scripture, it will be seen that this verse does not call for the exploitation of nature, as White claims; rather, it emphasizes both man's divine mandate to rule nature and his responsibility to fulfill the stewardship entrusted to him by nature's God. In conclusion, the blame for today's environmental dilemma is not properly laid at the door of Biblical faith. To be sure, there are historical roots to our crisis, and the search for the historical understanding of our present predicament must continue, but White's thesis is no answer.

When this misunderstanding of Biblical teaching is rejected, the true light of Biblical stewardship will illumine the path to environmental responsibility.

Bill to allow liquor sales on college campuses defeated

on the issue

Impeach!

by Chad Busk My roommate, Paul Christenson, took time off from studying physics recently to inform me that he favored impeaching one Richard Milhous Nixon, currently President of these United States.

Before I hit the ceiling in shock and dismay, I asked him to document his views for the student body, promising he could print them in this column.

Of course, in next week's column I shall endeavor to refute Mr. Christenson's arguments for impeachment, just to make sure that no one gets any funny i d e a s . . . C.B. Almost two hundred years ago, one of our founding fathers coined a phrase which has since become the motto of American conservative thought. He said, "Government is best that governs least."

JUDGING BY this criterion, one might well be led to conclude that the present administration in Washington is perhaps the finest to have come our way in the history of our nation.

Indeed, since the revelations of Watergate first began to break into the headlines over a year ago, Nixon's credibility - and his consequent ability to lead the government of the world's largest free nation - has steadily declined.

MISTRUST and suspicion of his motives in Congress have made it virtually impossible for either branch of government to cooperate on badly needed legislation. Until two weeks ago Saturday, amid rumors of impending announcements of further scandals in the Nixon administration, various individuals in the Congress had openly discussed the possibility of impeaching the President.

These suggestions had not been taken seriously; they had been interpreted as little more than expressions of liberal discontent with the President's policies.

THE FIRING of Cox, however, in one instant transformed that little murmur of discontent into one enormous, nationwide cacaphony of cries for impeachment. Realizing that he had very badly misjudged the reaction of the American people, Nixon relented, and turned over the tapes - an action which three days earlier would have averted the whole crisis.

This action quieted, to a large degree, demands for the President's impeachment. Yet, in order to gain a better perspective, one should pay heed to a few other lesser-known facts.

CONTRARY TO common belief, the issue of the tapes was not what led to the firing of Cox. Last Monday, Cox testified before the Senate subcommittee on Watergate that far more critical than the tapes to his investigation were a number of White House documents - papers which at one time Cox had been promised.

For months. Cox had tried to get these papers without success. Nixon, apparently fearful of what the papers would reveal, attempted to use the tapes issue to quell Cox's demands for the documents. As is well known, Nixon's compromise would have allowed Senator Stennis to listen to the tapes, and verify written summaries of them.

NOT WIDELY known is that Nixon tacked onto the compromise the provision that Cox would agree to cease his attempts to gain access to the White House documents. As Cox told the Senate, to agree

h •• A

!

to this would have been to cripple his own investigation.

There are those in the media who claim that Nixon had other reasons for purging Cox. The prosecutor was also hot on the trails of other possible scandals as outgrowths of the Watergate investigation.

IN PARTICULAR, his office was looking into the possibility that Nixon made improvements on his San Clemente estate with funds from his campaign budget; and that he made some fraudulent income tax deductions while vice-president.

Also under investigation was possible Nixon intervention in a Justice Department anti-trust suit against ITT and allegations that he had allowed the Cost of Living Council to approve an increase in the price of milk only after the Milk Producers' Association had made illegal contributions to Nixon's re-election campaign.

A LARGE unrepaid Howard Hughes loan to Nixon's good friend Bebe Rebozo was being looked into, as was a charge that the Committee to Re-elect the President had actively solicited illegal campaign contributions from corporations.

This is only a partial list of investigations which Nixon could have hoped to stop by firing Cox. By now it seems clear to most that all of these grave indiscretions could not have been perpetrated without Nixon knowing of at least a few of them. The crucial question therefore becomes how We the People are to react.

TRYING TO comprehend the full legalistic implications of the current state of affairs is proving to be very difficult indeed. Not having available a precedent by which to judge the case, the nation has been caught up in lengthy debates, strangely enough, not on whether Nixon is guilty of any wrongdoing, but rather on how much a president should be allowed to get away with.

What most people do not seem to realize is how dangerous this frame of mind is; we need only permit the President one sm^ll crime in order to set a precedent for a host of others. Instead, we should ask ourselves if we are ready to sell out the highest office in the land.

PERHAPS WE ought to acknowledge that there is another less compromising, if less simple, alternative. It is not a new idea; in fact, Christ was the first one to think of it: "If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away; it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.'

Matthew 5:30 More than the integrity of the office of President of the United States is now being challenged; at stake are the ethical foundations on which our country is based. We must demand a re-affirmation of faith in the principles which have made our nation great. An administration like the present one should have no place in American government.

Nixon must be removed from office.

The specter of this action is indeed terrible, but we should not allow that to frighten us. As a people, our hallmark has been to rise to great challenges and meet them; to confront great dangers and overcome them; to face difficult decisions and make them.

Clearly, the time has come to make a difficult decision. It may be the last chance we get.

The Michigan House Colleges and Universities Committee last Wednesday voted down a proposal to allow alcoholic beverages to be sold on college campuses.

Representative Jackie Vaughn III (D-Detroit), sponsor of the bill, said he would re-introduce it "and keep on doing so until college students are given the right to purchase alcoholic beverages in their local community like every other Michigan adult now can."

Voting for the bill were Vaughn, H. Lynn Jondahl (D-East Lansing), Perry Bullard (D-Ann Arbor), and Committee Chairperson Daisy Elliott (D-Detroit). In opposition were Richard Buth (R-Belmont), Charles Varnum (R-Manistique), Gerrit Hasper (D-Muskegon), Bela Kennedy (R-Bangor), Mrs. Lucille McCollough (D-Dearborn) and Robert

Young (R-Saginaw). Absent was Dale Warner (R-Eaton Rapids).

Vaughn said the bill was an attempt to further extend the rights granted in the Age of Majority Act. "If we are going to be honest with ourselves in calling 18-year-old college students 'adults,' we must be willing to grant them all of the privileges enjoyed by non-student adults," he said.

"College students, especially those who live in residence halls, perceive their campus as being their 'local community,"' Vaughn continued. "They eat, sleep, vote and work there, yet they cannot buy liquor there.

"By permitting non-students to purchase alcoholic beverages in their local community while denying college students that same right is to make students secondclass citizens," he said.

Local politics are certainly not as glamorous or sensational as international detentes and Watergate investigations.

anchor editorials

Gooje dag With regret, we learned of the resignation last Wednesday of Director of Planned Giving William Stone.

Throughout his two years of service at Hope, Mr. Stone showed his ability to instill confidence in the friends of the college, while encouraging them to lend financial support.

He developed deferred giving into a viable program. A strong deferred giving program will help increase Hope's endowment which is now relatively low for comparable small colleges. An increased endowment is

important for the Hope community as it gives financial stability and could eventually enable tuition costs to decrease.

However, due to the nature of his postition, the results of Mr. Stone's work may not be immediately appreciated as the financial rewards will not affect the college for many years.

We sincerely hope that Mr. Stone's successor will have equal capabilities and insight into the financial circumstances of the college.

Dedication a success—Brink Speaking on behalf of the Peale Science Center Dedication Committee, I wish to take this opportunity to express deep appreaciation to all the many f>cudents, who in various ways helped to make the dedication of the Peale Science Center a success.

Thanks t o you and the anchor staff for making the special effort to publish a day early. Thanks to the choir members, to Mr. Fedak, the members of the brass choir, and the horn quartet, for the music which really made the difference between what might have been a good service and one that was truly memorable.

To Mr. Wolff and his fine crew of ushers, to all the many students who

assisted with the open house, and t o those who served as waiters and waitresses we say thank you very much. Thanks to all boarding students who suffered the inconvenience of being displaced from the dining hall for lunch on Friday t o make it possible for our guests to ei\joy a meal together.

An undertaking of the magnitude of the dedication program required the cooperation and the sacrifice of the entire campus community for success, and we received excellent cooperation. Your contribution made it possible for our guests t o leave with pleasant memories that will not be soon forgotten.

Strike

by Art Buchwaid (£)1973, Los Angeles Times Syndicate WASHINGTON-lf anyone is wondering why the Japanese are leading the world in productivity, 1 think I may have a clue.

A FRIEND OF mine was visiting a factory in Tokyo that makes television sets. As he was being taken on the tour, he noticed that the Japanese workers were wearing headbands painted a bright red.

"What is the significance of the red headband?" my friend asked the manager who was showing him around. " T h e workers are on strike and that is their way of telling us."

"BUT IF THEY are on strike, why are they working?"

The manager seemed amazed at the question. "If they didn't work they wouldn't get paid, and we would lose production. This would never d o . " "So instead of going out they wear their red headbands?"

"YES' THAT'S TO let us know they are unhappy. Naturally we are very disturbed that they are unhappy, so we try to negotiate the grievances."

"Is the red band the only way you know they're unhappy?"

The manager answered, "No, they show their discontent in many ways. For example, when they're on strike they come to work 15 minutes early and they stand in the courtyard and sing songs telling of their unhappiness with the management. It's very sad for management to hear these songs because it means we have not done the right thing for our workers. The songs hurt us more than the red headbands." " D o they sabotage the TV sets they're assembling?"

THE MANAGER WAS aghast. "That would not be an honorable thing to do. As a matter of fact, they work even harder and with more proficiency to show how unhappy they are. The better they perform, the more unhappy we in management become and the more eager we are to reach a settlement."

"I know you Americans will never understand this, but it is a terrible thing to

come to work in the morning and hear your entire labor force singing songs against you. It is also very sad to walk among the workers as we are doing now and know that although they are. doing their jobs with fervor, their hearts are not in it."

"WILL THEY speak to you while they're on strike?" my friend asked.

"Oh, yes, they will speak to me," the manager replied, "and no one will mention in the conversation that they are on strike.

But I know and they know what the situation is and it's very uncomfortable for all of us. When a strike takes place, the management has many soul-searching meetings to discover what we did wrong. It is a great loss of face in this country to have your workers on strike."

"HAVE YOU EVER had a strike where the workers have refused to go to work?" " N o t in our plant. But American labor methods slowly are being brought to Japan by some radical leaders. Not long ago the subway workers went out on strike."

"THAT MUST have caused havoc," my friend said.

"Not exactly," the manager replied.

"They went out at 3 a.m. on Sunday for a half-hour so they would inconvenience the least number of passengers." " I T WOULD BE marvelous if Japan would teach American labor leaders their methods," my friend said. "All it would cost the unions over here would be the price of red headbands. I can just see the United Auto Workers singing antimanagement songs in the courtyard of the Ford Motor Co." The manager checked a list of production figures someone handed him. "Just as I thought," he said, "we're up 10% this week."

"WHEN DO YOU think the strike will be over?" my friend asked.

"I hope soon," the manager said sadly.

"Management can't take the pressure much longer."

anchor review

Trower looms as new Hendrbc, Fisher lyrics shine Editor's note: This week's anchor review is written by Robert M. Kruse and Rodney C. Murray.

They review Matthew Fisher's new album and Robin Trower's new release.

Matthew Fisher, one time producer, organist and backbone of Procol Harum, has produced an old mate's new LP, Twice Removed From Yesterday. Robin Trower, former guitarist of Procol Harum, has also released an album, in which the influence of the late Jimi Hendrix is dominant.

TROWER DOES his idol justice with a worthy attempt at unearthing the secrets of the guitar that the master took to his grave. He displays the same understanding of special effects that Hendrix introduced to the world of rock.

Trower broke away from his restricting role as a back-up guitarist with Procol Harum after their LP Broken Barricades and mastered the wah-wah pedal and fuzz box with the bluesy-rock style of Hendrix.

ALONG WITH unknowns Reg Isidore on drums and James Dewar on bass and vocals, the group has given rock a much

needed shot in the arm. Although the group sounds like the old Jimi Hendrix Experience, their musical personalities surface to produce an original extension of one part of the Experience.

Isidore and Dewar serve as adequate back-up men for Trower's lead. Dewar's voice is vaguely reminiscent of Paul Rogers, singer for •Free, of "ALL RIGHT NOW" fame.

The musicianship of Trower's rhythm section, although adequate, falls short of the excellence marked by Mitch Mitchell (drums) and Noel Redding (bass) of the Experience.

ID1SORE AND Dewar lack the creativity and versatility of Mitchell and Redding. Where the Jimi Hendrix Experience could improvise at any given moment, The Trower trio seems to know their boundaries.

Trower's ability is pushed to its limits following the Hendrix technique, on this, his first solo LP. Who knows? Maybe after a few more discs, he could surpass the giant. This seems doubtful however, as Hendrix booms as the greatest ever.

ADMIRATION must be extended to Trower's attempt at exacting his style but the fact

Prominent sculptor to display work in DeWitt gallery

by Nancy Struck "Love Is Where You Find It" is what Hope Assistant Professor of Art David Smith has titled a collection of artist Tom Silver's sculpture. The showing of Silver's sculpture is scheduled to open at the DeWitt Gallery Thursday, Nov. 6 at 8:00 p.m.

A UNIQUE feature of this opening is that Silver will be on hand that evening to discuss his works. Visitors will have the opportunity to talk with him and ask any questions they might have.

Silver is currently a professor of art at Cleveland State University. Prior to this position he taught at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. He attended San Francisco Art Institute and Long Beach State Univer-

Noted sociologist to lecture Nov. 9 in Dimnent Chapel Dr. Samuel Weingarten will present a lecture on "Social Change in Urban America" in Dimnent Chapel Nov. 9 at 10:30 a.m.

This lecture is the second in a symposium on urban affairs sponsored jointly by the political science, psychology and sociology departments and assisted by the Cultural Affairs Committee.

Weingarten holds the rank of professor in the Jane Addams Graduate School of Social Work, University of Illinois, Chicago Circle and also holds a joint appointment as Professor of Health Care Services in the University of Illinois College of Medicine.

Weingarten's professional activities and publications have included the application of sociological principles to community organization and planning.

sity as an undergraduate student and obtained his Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Kansas.

SILVER HAS had many oneman shows at various galleries and museums throughout the United States, the most famous of these being the Henri Gallery in Washington, D.C. and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. " F o u n d objects" are the basis for Silver's sculptures. Using such things as bones, feathers, and stones he assembles them as sculpture. Smith stated, "He approaches his work in a very playful way, and is actually a juggler of things we see everyday and the result is something that is very startling."

"SILVER IS AN example of a younger school of artists that are not content to deal with abstract or formal design problems, but who wish to express who they are and how they interpret life."

Silver's work will be on display through Nov. 30. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 12 noon, 1-5 p.m. and 7-10 p.m. weekdays, and 1-5 p.m. on weekends. This program is part of the monthly art series sponsored by the art department and was arranged for by Smith.

Lehman to give recital in Wichers Sunday afternoon Baritone Carroll Lehman, assistant professor of music, will present a recital Sunday at 3 p.m. in Wichers Auditorium.

He will perform a program which includes five Moerike Lieder by Hugo Wolf, three songs by Henri Duparc, and a song-cycle based on poems by Thomas Hardy with music composed by Gerald Finzi.

Anthony Kooiker, professor of music, will be the accompanist.

remains that he is not a mere duplicate of Hendrix, but provides enjoyable listening in his own right.

We don't know where Matthew Fisher has been since his last appearance with Procol Harum on Salty Dog five years ago, but it's too bad he didn't reveal himself years ago as a solo artist. His organ work was distinctive in almost all of Procol Harum's material. Along with Gary Brooks' piano, they formed the first significant organ/piano combination in rock.

ALONE FISHER continues this musical interweaving of organ and piano, extending this virtuosity with his own guitar work and the writing of some of the most original and personal lyrics to date.

His words give insight into Fisher's personality: an independent, yet defensive, individual where people are concerned.

Some folks say I'm a loser, I never had much money, 1 never had a friend that didn't sometimes let me down When I try to remember to think of all the good times Well 1 was just a victim of a joke that was going round But the laughs they don't bother me at all

And if they think I'm gonna crawl Well, they'll have to think again.

HE SPEAKS of friends who lied, a lover lost, people who play games with him; and mixed in with all the pessimistic thoughts (a la Keith Reid, lyricist for Procol Harum) is the subtle putdown of Procol Harum. He claims that all these things don't bother him, but his high, urgent voice betrays him.

The music has a wide scope.

Sometimes he rocks' as in the opening tune "Suzanne," then Fisher plays a slower, painful "Going for a Song" in which he displays his electric piano prowess and newly found guitar ability.

THE SONG subtly refers to his days with Procul Harum: You can take the stain glass from my windows You can drink my whisky and champagne You can drive a plow across my golf course But please don't make me sing that song again.

You can put pirhana in my swimming pool Kick me and I just won't feel the pain Scratch your name all over my Lamborghini

But please don't make me sing that song again.

Its not because it's hard to reach those high notes That it makes me sad And when I think of what I used to be It makes me feel so bad Please don't make me sing that song again.

HE USES brass and strings, which he arranged very tastefully.

It can almost be said that Fisher is writing the same Procol Harum material only without the aid of &ooker and Reid. His words are what really shine in this product.

He has the need to verbally express himself and since music is his only medium, he sticks to a Procol Harum style (unlike Trower).

A note on his friends in the band. Geoff Swettenham on drums and Mick Hawksworth on bass provide a firm background for Fisher's statement, following him to rock, to ballad, to symphonic moods. Procol Harum musicians are superior in pounding out the points Brooker and Reid make.

But in time, Swettenham, Fisher and Hawksworth should be able to equal any of Procol Harum's achievements. This band will go as far as it wants.

The Nixon visit

by Paul Boddy President Nixon planned to give an address at the dedication of the Peale Science Center but backed out when the Mid East War erupted. The following is an account of what would have happened if he had come to Hope.

THE PRESIDENT scanned the crowd in Dimnent with his beady eyes and began, "President VanWylen, Dr. Peale, Hope alumni and students: 1 am honored to be here on this historic occasion for your fine college. The new building we dedicate symbolizes America's hope for the future, hope in her young scientists." Nixon emphasized the word " H o p e " and smiled awkwardly whenever he said it.

Nixon told how impressed he was when the Chapel Choir sang at the White House, talked of his friendship with Hope alumnus Guy Vandeijagt, mentioned twice that Dr. Peale had married David and Julie, and made it perfectly clear that he wasn't going to say anything of importance.

THE AUDIENCE listened patiently. Nixon started his last anecdote, "1 want to tell you about when I took fundamentals of chemistry at Whit-" when the left front Chapel door flung open.

Dr. Curry, who had been at Skiles trying to forget that Nixon was contaminating Hope's campus, staggered into the Chapel and shouted, "Impeach the scoundrel." The crowd, momentarily stunned by the exclamation, recovered and started chanting, "Impeach, Impeach."

HOPE cheerleaders ran onto the stage holding little basketballs with Nixon's face painted on them.

Alumni, professors and students on the left side of Dimnent roared " I m " and those on right side answered "peach." The "peaches" screamed louder than the "ims" and scrambled for the basketballs thrown by the cheerleaders.

When the noise subsided Dr. Peale said to Nixon, "Maybe this would be a good time t o fess up, Richard."

NIXON blasted into the microphone, "1 will tell all. I remind you that my administration has accomplished much: peace with honor in Vietnam, renewed relations w i t h - " .

Again the President was interrupted. This time Dave Yeiter said, "Excuse me, Mr. President, please get to the point. Football practice starts in five minutes."

NIXON CUT the rhetoric and explained how a Mission Impossible-type task force, hired by the

THE MAN explained, "I fired Cox because he was about to discover the conspiracy against me. If Cox or a member of his staff leaked news of the Communist plot, it would have shaken my friendship with Breznev and jeopardized our efforts for peace in the Middle East."

Nixon gave more details which further cleared himself, and concluded in a trembling voice, "I thank Hope College for forcing me to tell the truth.

I have decided to sell the San Clemente White House and donate the money to Hope so it can continue its pursuit of the t r u t h . " The crowd stood and ovated the president for a half hour and gleeful Republican alumni shouted, "Nixon's not the one."

Holland council candidates speak Cora Visscher is running for councilworn an-at-large.

Whit are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's major problems?

1 am concerned about what I consider to be a serious lack of communication between councilmen and citizens. Holland's main problems are the lack of public transportation, cultural gaps and unwillingness on the part of the city to put their priorities on people.

At-large: Cora Visscher On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

I believe that environmental control, improved housing and social services to the poor are most important; after these, land acquisition would come next.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population?

1 am concerned about the fact that we have no Latino employees in the park or fire departments. The largest portion of our 1972 revenue sharing money is going to these two departments. There is a Civil Rights provision in the Revenue Sharing Act with which we must comply. 1 have urged LaRaza Unida to encourage applications.

Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of bilingual elementary school

teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

I appreciate the problem of the schools in finding bilingual teachers. Teachers should use more aides in these schools and consider it career development training for the aides as well as a great help to the students.

How could housing opportunities for low income families be increased?

Since Holland-Zeeland Area Housing has become side-tracked from its original intention, which was the restoration of condemned housing, 1 believe that the city could take the project over.

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

1 constantly encourage my friends in the Latino community to apply for city jobs.

What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problem?

This is an obvious place for revenue sharing money. In the area of air pollution, stricter control of smoke emission from factories in the city limits is needed. To help combat water pollution, Holland should join with Ottawa County to pool some revenue sharing money and clean up Lake Macatawa.

Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws? Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

As the person responsible for the Retreat Coffee House until its closing, 1 felt the city could cooperate more with efforts such as the RCH and Focus. Also, Holland as well as other cities and states should clarify and separate the marijuana laws from other narcotics statutes.

Editor's note: The anchor sent questionnaires to the candidates seeking election to the Holland City Council Nov. 6. The editing of the answers was minimal. We regret that the views of the mayoral candidates, Louis Hallacy II and Michael Oostdyk, could not be presented as Mr. Oostdyk was out of town this week.

Students registered in Holland may vote for all of the candidates running, regardless of the ward.

Elmer Wassink is seeking the councilman-at-large post.

What are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's m^jor problems?

Enlargement of our storm sewer system, enlargement of the capacity of our d t y utilities (light, water and sewer), developing ingress and egress at U.S. 31 and Lakewood Blvd., protection of the density factor within the inner city so that decent housing is possible, encouragement and designing programs that will make possible and desirable the "rehabing" and/or re-

At-large: Elmer Wissink modeling of older homes and construction of new homes whenever feasible, cleaning up beautiful Lake Macatawa, land acquisition for recreational parks, and truck routes and streets so treated as to reduce the irritation and yet protect the channels of commerce, are the major issues.

On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

On non-recurring capital expenditures.

By law, revenue sharing will come to an end in five years.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population? Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of

Much of this is handled by the Department of Natural Resources, a state agency.

Substantial progress has been made and is in the making but we still have a long way to go.

Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws? Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

According to information I have, the Holland Police Department responds according to the procedures set up by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.

Realignment of drug laws should be done on a state level.

David VanderKooi is making a bid for the council seat from the first ward.

What are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's major problems?

Some of the most pressing problems 1 see in Holland's future are: the lack of good communication between city government and minority groups; election ballots should be in both English and Spanish; city government (especially city council) is less representative than it should be-based on our present population and boundaries.

On what d o you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

Future revenue sharing needs for our city as I see them are: street improvements-we must resurface many of our

I cannot see how we as a city operate without hiring bilingual people. Private business has recognized the need for bilingual people and now are starting to place these people in key positions. Yet, the city operates without their help.

What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problem?

With approval of the city's budget in June 1973 there are monies deemed for air pollution equipment. In the very near future we will have answers to some of the air pollution problems. What is our present city government doing about Lake Macatawa? Not one thing. They are spending $100,000 for downtown beautification under the heading of Environmental Improvement and using revenue sharing funds. If downtown beautification is environmental improvement, I then ask what heading do you put Lake Macatawa under?

Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws? Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

I cannot answer the first part of this question for the reason that 1 have not read our laws concerning this area-1 do believe though that our city laws need to be studied and updated. We are living under some of the same laws that governed this city in the early 1950 , s. Life styles and patterns have changed, but not our laws.

First ward: David VanderKooi

Food Stamps mean more food for people with a small income.

If you are eligible it's your legal right to buy food stamps at a discount or get them free.

WHO GETS FOOD STAMPS? Food stamps are for people who support a big family on a small income. Or for elderly people who earn little and live on Social Security. Or for anybody with a small income who is eligible.

Depending on your income, the government sells you food stamps at a big discount or gives them to you free.

YOU HAVE A LEGAL RIGHT TO FOOD STAMPS. Your legal right to food stamps is protected by Federal Law. In addition, you have a legal right to get food stamps as soon as you move to a new area. And you have a legal right to a quick decision on your application for food stamps.

AS GOOD AS MONEY. Food stamps are like money. You use them to buy food as if they were cash.

They stretch your food dollars and let you feed your family better. With food stamps you can get twice as much food for your family without spending any more money.

FIND OUT IF YOUR FAMILY IS ELIGIBLE NOW. You do not have to be unemployed or on welfare to be eligible for food stamps. However, you should check with your local welfare office to find out whether you are eligible, where to go and what to do. In some areas, the local welfare office even gives out or sells the stamps. If you run into any problems, write: FOOD STAMPS ROOM 301 142416th STREET N.W. WASHINGTON, D.C. 20036 Don't cheat your family out of better meals for less money. Remember: $5 can get you $10 with food stamps.

GOOD AT MOST GROCERY STORES. Almost all food stores take food stamps for food purchases. It's a good deal for the store because it increases total business when you use food stamps to buy extra food.

bilingual elementary school teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

School matters are not handled by city council.

How could housing opportunities for low income famflies be increased?

By the expansion of programs to encourage the remodeling and building of homes.

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

On an equal opportunity basis.

What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problem?

streets and install new or replace some of our current storm sewers; land acquisition-parks, recreation and cemetery-our city founders had the foresight to obtain the land for parks and a cemetery to meet our present needs, we should have the foresight to purchase property for future needs; River Avenue bridge-this is a very serious problem, not only for widening, but if you ever happen to go under the bridge you will see how serious the deteriorating problem is; and, renovation or replacement of the downtown fire station-with the one way streets and downtown beautification along with the buildings' age, we will have to make some changes.

1 feel that we as a city have forgotten about our most important priority-people.

For this reason, I am placing people f i r s t my theme is "Priority on people." In today's world, we place too large an emphasis on materialistic needs-forgetting about our youth, senior citizens and handicapped citizens. Their future is now. I plan to work for these people. One of the areas is assisting our handicapped citizens confined to wheelchairs. They need ramps and sloped curbs, drinking fountains, rest rooms with wide doors and hand rails, and phones at appropriate heights.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population?

I have some very strong feelings on this subject. As a city we are falling far short of goals; which would allow these citizens their equal rights.

Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of bilingual elementary school teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

Tne two school districts in question have a more pressing problem than other sections of the city. I am highly in favor of having more bilingual teachers in these areas. At the same time we should be putting forth stronger efforts in the hiring of bilingual teachers in other districts, such as Washington School.

How could housing opportunities for low income families be increased?

I feel we as a city are going in the wrong direction handling this problem. We build large housing buildings, forgetting that people have personal pride and would like to have a home of their own. I want more low income homes, not low income housing buildings.

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

James Vande Poel is running in the first ward councilman race.

What are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's major problems?

Inter-government planning and public transportation. Storm sewers and the River Avenue bridge are the issues.

On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

A Park Department warehouse, recreation development, and major capital outlay expenditures.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population?

Yes.

First ward: James VandePoel Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of bilingual elementary school teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

This is a board of education problem.

How could housing opportunities for low income families be increased?

By working with state and federal agencies.

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

Yes. What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problem?

Continued improvement in air and water pollution as knowledge becomes available.

Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws?

Yes. Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

No.

crucial issues facing the Morris Peerbolt is running for fifth ward councilman.

What are the issues are running on?

What are Holland^ major problems?

Continued quality growth of the city as we have experienced in the last ten years, further coordination of life supporting and life enriching services with the neighboring townships, major modifications to the storms water system are some of the issues.

Holland's major problem: a gradual turning on the part of many citizens from an attitude of community to a self-seeking attitude.

On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

Fifth ward: Morris Peerbolt Revenue sharing funds have so far been allocated toward non-operational, capital expenditures. I have voted this way in the past and will continue to do so.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population?

I consider the city's posture regarding the Latino population acceptable. A positive program has been pursued in hiring personnel and many Latinos now are contributing on the same basis as whites in city departments. Certainly we have not "arrived."

Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of bilingual elementary school teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

I am not knowledgeable concerning the school system.

How could housing opportunities for low income families be increased?

Low income families would be helped to some degree if the State Housing Commission policies would change at the Holland and Zeeland Area Housing project.

Also, we are budgeting $50,000 per year for rehabilitation of sub-standard housing. The human relations commission's recent suggestion to have city inspection of all rental properties (residential) appears to have much merit.

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

The city has been and will continue to hire bilingual personnel.

What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problem?

I believe existing state statutes are satisfactory for air p o l l u t i o n - o u r own power

plant needs improvements on one stack and the board of public works superintendent is working on a unique solution to this problem.

Water pollution is still a large problem.

Some industry has cooperated but not all.

Our city health department is working with the college but the problem is a long way from being solved.

Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws? Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

I've had no reason to criticize our police department for its handling of narcotics laws, nor do I think the city council is a logical origin of narcotics law reform.

James E. Clemens 11 is seeking the city council seat from the third ward.

What are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's major problems?

I am against the beautification of downtown Holland. It isn't fair to the taxpayers or smaller businesses in town for the downtown merchants to get all the revenue sharing funds. Also, I favor getting a bus system in town if we don't get dial-a-ride transportation. The major problem in Holland, I feel, is that the current city council is not cooperating enough with the voters.

On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

I feel revenue sharing should be spent where the voters benefit the most. I feel it shouldn't be spent on the beautification of downtown Holland in which $100,000 is already allotted. The money should also be

Third ward: James Clemens II spent on the repaving of the city streets instead of having the taxpayers paying for it.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population?

I don't feel the city is cooperating with its Latino people. They don't recognize them; the city treats them like outsiders.

Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of bilingual elementary school teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

Yes, I think that we should have more bilingual teachers in the school system.

This would give us better communication.

It isn't up to the council, though, it is up to the school board.

How could housing opportunities for low income families be increased?

Low income housing could be increased by putting up more apartments.

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

Yes, I feel that if we get more bilingual personnel it will get the Latino people more involved.

What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problem?

I wouldn't comment on the water and air pollution problem until I looked into it further.

Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws? Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

Yes, 1 think the Holland Police Department has done a fantastic job in handling narcotics law violations, even though they have changed so much. They should seek narcotics law reform but it is a problem of the state.

One of the candidates for the council seat from the fifth ward is Kenneth Beelen.

What are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's major problems?

None. If Holland has a major problem it would be housing for moderate income families, storm sewers, and additional sanitary sewers.

Fifth ward: Kenneth Beelen On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

We should consider using revenue sharing funds to set up a city housing authority, making it possible for the city t o buy homes in need of repair, rehabilitate them Donald Gosterbaan is seeking re-election to the city council from the third ward.

What are the issues you are running on?

What are Holland's major problems?

Storm sewers, the expansion of the city's water and sewer plants, a new park department warehouse, a street paving and sidewalk program. City and community zoning and planning (in all areas-parks, recreation, residential, commercial and industrial) are also issues. A new Skills Center for the Ottawa-Allegan area and proposed hospital authority are items to consider.

On what do you think revenue sharing funds should be spent?

Environmental protection, public safety, health and recreation.

Do you think the city is doing enough to help its Latino population?

Yes. Do you favor the hiring of a greater number of bilingual elementary school teachers for the Lincoln and Federal school districts?

This is not a council matter-but should be handled by the board of education.

How could housing opportunities for low income families be increased?

By using our government subsidized housing (already available).

Do you favor hiring bilingual personnel for city agencies?

Yes (we do have bilingual personnel in most of our city departments), if qualified.

What do you think should be done about Holland's pollution problems?

The Environmental Health Department is working on a program covering both air and water pollution.

Third ward: Donald Oosterbaan Do you approve of the Holland Police Department's handling and enforcement of narcotics laws? Should Holland city institute narcotics law reform?

I have enough confidence in our Chief of Police and his department and the methods they use to enforce all our laws, narcotic included. No, we should continue to abide by the state and federal narcotic laws.

All-Stars

by Chris Liggett As the intramural football season comes to a close I have a few thoughts buzzing around my skull about the sport. Basically the game is sound. But some of the rules, and possibly the means by which the officials are chosen, could be re-examined for some obvious flaws.

FIRST, I have to say that this year's season, with Ken Hoesch in charge, was run better than any I can remember. The schedule was set early and all the coaches and managers knew what was to happen during the season. Hopefully, the rest of the intramural sports will be run with this same efficiency.

1 can only feel sorry for those lucky young men who were able to latch on to that high paying job as an intramural referee. Subject to much abuse during every game, they are expected to see every motion that is being made by 14 players on the field.

BUT AT TIMES different rules were being applied by different refs. Not favoritism, but a misunderstanding of the rules. Sometimes the ball was dead if it was a bad snap from center, other times the ball could be picked up and the play continued.

The referees should hold some sort of meeting to get the rules straight between themselves, and let the players know that they are sure of the rules.

With this knowledge the jeering at the refs would be limited to the mistakes they make, and even then it is not necessary. When you look back at the job they have to do, consider how well you would do under the same pressure.

THERE ARE A few rules that have to be defined a little more clearly for those that play the game. If the game is going to be two-handed touch it should be played that way, with no contact. Otherwise make it tackle. With the amount of bruised faces and limps seen after a typical game, 1 can't see where there would be many more injuries if the game became tackle.

The biggest rule that has to be clarified is the new play for settling a tie game. The tie-breaker was a good idea but 1 don't think it worked quite as well as planned.

STARTING THE ball at the midfield line, and giving each team eight plays is adequate, but awarding the win to the team who gains the most yardage, whether it is an inch or fifty yards tends to leave sonie hard feelings among the players.

Perhaps the system now being employed by Michigan and Ohio high schools could be investigated. In this system, the ball is placed on the ten-yard line and each team is given an opportunity to score. The play continues until one of the teams has outscored the other.

There will be a hot time in the old dorm tomorrow night after the football team returns from their victory over Camp Olivet. Olivet will most likely be the toughest game that Hope will play this year. A tough ground attack and a sound defense might give the Dutch some problems. Hope has been playing fantastically well in the last few weeks, and might be overconfident, but 1 doubt it. Prediction . . . Hope 17 - Olivet 13.
