Students Sponsor Village Relief

Hope OffersVietnam Aid Since the Vietnamese Conference held at Hope three weeks ago, interest in the possibility of Hope College directly lending a hand to help the Vietnamese people help themselves has been mounting among the student body.

Recognizing this interest and realizing that personal aid to these people is a valid expression of Christianity, Student Senate president Wes Michaelson has organized a committee to coordinate efforts toward such an end.

Hope Choirs Will Perform 'Messiah' in Chapel Tuesday The Hope College music department will present its thirty-fifth biennial performance of Handel's " M e s s i a h " next Tuesday, at 8 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial Chapel.

Dr. Robert Cavanaugh will be the director and Dr. Morrette Rider will be the assistant director.

The soloists for the program are soprano Joyce Morrison of the Hope music department, contralto Mrs. Margaret Sherman from Muskegon, tenor Richard Knoll from the music department of the University of Indiana and bass K. Charles Graves from Chicago.

The organist will be J a m e s Tallis and the harpsichordist will be Dr. Anthony Kooiker. This will mark the first time that the harpsichord will be used in Hope's rendition of the "Messiah." The original performance of the Messiah in 1742 used it.

The chorus is composed of the two college choirs—the u i a p e l Choir and the College Chorus— which have been practicing together since the first of October.

Handel wrote the "Messiah" in a m e r e 22 days. It is an oratorio in three parts: the nativity, passion and resurrection. The standing oi the audience during the singing of the Hallelujah Chorus dates back

By Donation Dr. Otto van der Velde, who was director of Hope College Health Service until this year, has given a monetary stipend to Hope in order to continue the giving of the van der Velde Award on the campus.

to a tradition begun by King George II of England who was very moved when he first heard it.

Now in her fourth year on the faculty. Miss Morrison is performing in the Hope presentation of the oratorio for the third time.

She received her music degrees from Augustana College and the American Conservatory of Music.

Mrs. Sherman, a graduate of Julliard School of Music, is currently studying voice and academic courses at Hope for the attainment of a B.A. degree. Knoll is on the faculty of the School of Music, Indiana University and will be making his second "Messiah" performance at Hope. Graves, who also performed here two years ago, has had extensive oratorio experience and has appeared with the Chicago Civic Opera Company.

Second semester the Old Testament course at Hope will take on a new format as Dr. J a m e s Muilenburg undertakes his newly-created position at Hope as Theologian in Residence. Dr. Muilenburg retired from Union Theological Seminary three years ago and is now associated with the San Fransico Theological Seminary at San Ansalmo, Calif.

A Hope alumnus, Dr. Muilenburg graduated from Hope in 1919 and was presented with the honorary Doctor of Divinity degree in 1956

by Hope. Dr. Arthur Jentz commited, concerning Dr. Muilenburg

1 \

\

that "any ivy- league university would be glad to have him and we are very fortunate that he holds a special esteem for HopeCollege."

At the beginning of his career, Dr. Muilenburg devoted himself to problems of literary criticism as is shown by the title of his graduate dissertation, "The Literary Relations of the Epistle o( Barnabas and the Teaching of the Twelve Apostles." He has been in the field of theological education for over a quarter of a century and according to Dr. Henry Voogd, Dr. Muilenburg is, "one of the renowned Old Testament scholars and theologians in the country."

Dr. Jentz also spoke of Dr. Muilenburg as a "very vivid" and "lively" lecturer and the "dean of Old Testament scholars."

A recitation period rounding out the three Old Testament courses which Dr. Muilenburg will teach will be conducted in a manner similar to that of the discussion groups now being used by the psychology and philosophy departments; however, faculty members instead of students will moderate the groups.

The talents of Dr. Muilenburg will also be used by Western Theological Seminary where he will teach a course on the prophets.

DR. JAMES MUILENBURG 4

Dr. Wesley Fishel, who spoke here on Nov. 20. organized a project at Michigan State University to adopt a Vietnamese village. With his aid. a specific village designated for Hope College is being selected. All funds raised in a drive would go directly to this village, by-passing U.S. and South Vietnamese government bureaucracy. "Any student, whether s u p porting U.S. policy or not, can support this humanitarian peopleto-people project divorced from Government programs or control," said Michaelson.

According to Mr. Dolf Droge, who also spoke here, the Voice of America could prepare a documen-

Old Testament Course Revised for Mullen berg

The Award is given to the outstanding male student of each graduation class and the winner is presented a gold medal in recognition of his high character and achievement at Hope. The Award was originated by van der Velde in the late '30's and h a s been annually awarded ever since.

Dr. van der Velde is a Hope graduate of 1915 and became physician in 1919. He has published in various medical iperiodicals and is a member of the American Medical Association, Michigan State Medical Society, International College of Surgeons, Detroit Surgical Society and American Colleige Health Association.

Dr. van der Velde is holding a reunion for all past Award winners this spring at graduation at Point

West.

In Vietnam, limited amounts of U.S. currency can accomplish much more than in the United States. A thousand dollars can build an entire market place for a village; a well can be dug for only $110; a youth can be sent to school for a y e a r for only $35. In an extensive fund-raising campaign, Hope could raise enough money to significantly improve the life of a Vietnamese village, said Michaelson.

tary of the Hope project for showing around the world. The V.O.A. could also prepare a film and tape on Hope's village for showing here at Hope.

Details for the drive are still tentative. Service projects and contributions b y organizations, campus and town-wide canvassing for individual contributions, and the canvassing of the businesses and high schools of Holland are some of the proposals on which the committee is working. The

campaign will most likely take place during the second week after Christmas vacation, Michaelson announced. Student Senate members will poll the student body for students willing to help in the drive.

Committee member Neil Sobania commented. "It would be especially significant that we show our enthusiastic support now for such a project; for it is the Christmas season when we should give of ourselves for others in dire need of assistance."

EFFICIENT CENTRAL REGISTRATION—During the past week the semi-annual IBM card holocaust took place as students began to register for second semester classes.

Sinfonia to Sponsor Davison Concert Dec. 11 Ph 1 Mu Alpha, the men's mus : c fraternity, will present a concert of music by the young American comnoser John Davison tomorrow at 8:30 p.m. in Snow Auditorium.

Editors note: This article on Dr. Wynand Wichers, which was written by his grandson, sophomore Rill Wichers, is another article in the Centennial Series on one of Hope's past presidents.

By Bill Wichers Dr. Wynand Wichers, sucessor to president Dimnent, brought Hope College through one of its most trying periods, which included the great Depression of the '30's and the Second World War. Dr. Wichers' better than 64-year association with Hope College began in 1901 when he entered the former Hope Preparatory School.

From the " p r e p " school he went ori to the College and graduated in 1909 with a Bachelor of Arts degree.

Served as Registrar After gaining a Masters degree at the University of Michigan in 1918, he returned as a professor of history and also served as registrar. In 1925 he was elected to the Board of Trustees by the classis of Holland, an office he was to hold for many years. In 1930, he was elected president of the Board, Dr. Wichers assumed the presidency* of the college at a time when the Depression had left much of the endowment in default and the very existence of the school was imperiled. After appealing to the churches for suport and the faculty to accet a cut in cash pay, he was able to see the school survive and increase its enrollment for the first time to 500 in i m With the endowment funds in 1938 back almost to their pre depression level, and a stabilizing economy, Dr. Wichers was able to carry out a camoaien to build the present scienee hall. This facility was comoleted in 1942 in time to give Hope the equipment necessary to put it in the forefront of all schools in training the scientists demanded by a country rebuilding

from world war. It has been called his greatest contribution to Hope College, for the science education at Hope has been one of the prime reasons for the school's excellent reputation.

Science Hall Built Also during this period, it was possible for Dr. Wichers to add many fine people to the staff and lo help initiate many new college institutions. Some of these institu-

ing a term as president of the Reformed Church General Synod, the only layman ever elected to that office. In recognition of his services to the Dutch people in America, he was made an officer in the Netherlands Order of Orange Nassau in 1941 by Princess, now Queen Juliana of the Netherlands while she was at Hope College.

War Crisis During the time of the Second World War, he was to see the college's enrollment drop as low as 288 in 1943. During this time, it was only the fact that the government was attracted to use the school's facilities as a military training school, for which compensatory money was paid, that the college was able to survive.

Although Dr. Wichers left the school's staff in 1945, he maintained his association with the college and was elected an honorary member of the Board of Trustees and President Emeritus of the College in 1963.

Hillegonds Asserts the Necessity Of Communication for Humanity "Communication is a fundamental human fact and the way you use this communication with another human establishes your relationship to h i m . " This was t h e theme of Rev. William Hillegonds' paper, "Agents of Communication," which he presented on Tuesday night as the Third Centennial Lecture in Education.

In a preview, Dr. Robert DeHaan, head of the education department. summarized modern trends in the philosophy of education and noted the important difference between a teacher viewing a student as a person or merely as a producer. Dr. DeHaan then introduced Rev. Hillegonds, the college chaplain.

HOPE'S OWN—The Shady Hollow Singers will appear this weekend with their spirited folk music at the Basement Upstairs. The Singers are irom left to right: Menno Kraai, Amy Wilson, Corliss Nelson, Barb Phail and Ken Feit.

Tonight 'Upstairs' Features The Shady Hollow Singers The new addition to week-end activities on campus, the Basement Upstairs, will feature the Shady Hollow Singers tonight starting at 8:30 p.m. The Singers a newly-formed folk singing group which specializes in high-spirited fast-moving numbers, will present two half-hour performances at 9:30 p.m. and at 10:30 o m.

Included in the program tonight are "This Old Riverboat," " F o u r Strong Winds" and " D e n v e r . " Enthusiastic response has greeted the Singers at their past performances, stated publicity manager Mike Vogas. The group is looking forward to engagements in the near future at Carousel Mountain and at the American Legion Country Club.

Members of the Shady Hollow Singers are Ken Feit, banjo and guitar; Menno Kraai playing bass; Corliss Nelson, banjo and guitar; and Barb Phail and Amy Wilson, vocalists. All have been performing either as soloists or in other folk groups for several years.

The Basement Upstairs, located in the Little Theater, was created and arranged by members of Palette and Masque in answer to the complaints of many students that week-ends in Holland lack variety.

Rick Rietveld. business manager for the Basement, stressed the fact that it is not set up for an entire evening's entertainment. One mav come and go at will for no admission and enjoy refreshments in the coffee-house atmosphere, although the evening will be highlighted bv the two performances of the Shady Hollow Singers.

The problems of communication are shared by both the teacher and the preacher.

During both a sermon and a lesson, similar b a r r i e r s exist which retard communication of the message of the spirit and of the mind. For a variety of reasons laymen often fail to get the p r e a c h e r ' s meaning from a sermon. In a classroom situation, student and instructor often fail to communicate and knowledge remains untransmitted.

What are the causes of these difficulties in communication?

According to Rev. Hillegonds, the chief detrimental influence is a "lack of empathy-the projecting of one person into the feelings of another." The completeness with which an agent of communication meets another person determines the success of the intellectual exchange between them.

In the words of Rev. Hillegonds they

must meet as " u n m a s k e d individuals."

The masks hiding the revelation of the individual take many forms as they raise obstacles to communicate.

A language barrier comes into play when the communicator forgets that meaning lies with persons and not with words. Preconceived meanings of ideas often stagnate the consideration of new theories presented to both class and congregation, he said.

What then is required for successful communication? The agent of thought exchange must, of course, possess a good understanding of what is being transmitted. He must also, however, scan the life of the one with whom he wishes to communicate with in order to deal with him as an individual. The communicator must listen to "ov^rton^s of n e e d " often crying to be heard from beneath an exterior of blase indifference or sullen recalcitrance. Therefore, the teacher and preacher must both examine their motives for choosing their vocation. To be a successful com-

municator, they should "look upon thought exchange not as a job but as a vocation to be fulfilled," he concluded.

Rev. Hillegonds accented his paper with several personal anecdotes illustrating his various points to the audience of some 175 students and faculty.

Underclassmen Coordinate Christmas Hop The f r e s h m a n and sophomore classes will hold an informal dance, "Mistletoe andTinkertoys," for all classes. The festive event is to take place tomorrow night from 8:30 — 11:30 p.m. in Phelps dining hall. The Shades of Lynn will provide the music for the holiday dance.

Sue Albers, publicity chairman, stresses that the dance is for individuals as well as couples and reports, too, that the dress will be school clothes.

Vienna Scholarships Open; Fried Announces Increase Five scholarships worth $600 each will be available this year to Hope students who wish to participate in the Hope College Vienna Summer School, according to program director Dr. Paul Fried. The amount has been increased to $600 this year because the previous $500 no longer covered half of the program cost, as the scholarship is designed to do.

The main purpose of the scholarships is to enable Hope students who might not be able to travel and study abroad without this aid to gain a significant cultural experience and to add an international dimension to their liberal arts training, said Dr. Fried.

In order to be considered for a scholarship a student must have completed two years of college work with an academic average of 3.3 and plan to return to Hope for the following school year.

Students wishing to apply for a scholarship for the summer of 1966 should first discuss their summer plans with their academic advisor, who must support the ap-

plication. In addition to completing the regular application for the Vienna scholarship, the applicants are requested to write a personal letter to the scholarship committee giving an outline of their academic and professional plans. They are also to include how they view their proposed foreign study program in relation to their overall object i / e s and financial circumstances.

Last y e a r ' s scholarship recipients were Millie Koeman, Leslie Leppla, Joan TenHoor, Dorothy Trorke and Dick Wolters. Commenting on this year's opportunities for scholarship aid. Dr. Fried stated: "We wish that more students would apply for the Vienna Scholarships than have in the past."

Application forms for the Vienna Summer School program are vailable in Dr. Fried's office, which is located in the Admissions Building. All scholarship applications must be returned to Dr. Fried no later than February 1, 1966. The deadline for regular applications is March 15, 1966.

English Dept. Announces Requirement Change require intermediate proficiency in a foreign language, a basic prog r a m in composition and the core of literature. To this core a student must add enough electives to give him a total of 30 hours for the liberal arts major, 35 hours for the teaching certificate, and 40-45 hours for graduate school.

"In this way all majors, regardless of professional interests, will have a common core of experience in literature study and a p r o g r a m of electives to follow out their more individualized interests," added Dr. DeGraaf.

The English department has announced a change in the requirements for English majors. The new program will be based on a 28hour literature core which will include the following: World Literature, 6 hours; Shakespeare, 4 hours: The American Novel, 3 hours: Survey of American Literature, 4 hours: Literary Criticism, 2 hours: Survey of English Literature, 6 hours: and a choice of Milton, Chaucer, or Spenser, 3 hours credit. Since composition is a skills course required of all students, it is not considered a part of the major.

"The twenty-eight hour program in literature is planned to provide both depth and breadth in the study of literature," according to Dr. Clarence DeGraaf, chairman of the department. "The American 'No-vel is a 'genre' course introducing students to that type of literature: the Milton, Chaucer or Spenser courses wifl be an opportunity to do intensive work in one author: and the surveys will give broad coverage to the chronological development of English and American literature," continued Dr. DeGraaf.

There a r e three classes of English m a j o r s ; the liberal arts major, the teaching m a j o r and the graduate school major. All three

Mis. Edward Savage, associate professor in this department, commented. "The new requirements are fine, but they don't include any oi my courses."

Union Open The Student Union will be open for dancing with the reorded music of Dyno-Vybe 475 being featured this Saturday night from 9 to 12 p.m. announced Bob Thompson, Union chairman.

Refreshments will also be available and dress is to be casual.

LUXURY LENER—The Cabo San Vicente, a Sjpan ish trans-Atlantic liner, will be the new ship that Vienna summer school students will travel on to Europe this summer. The ship will dock in Englamd instead of on the continent and from England the stu dents will go directly to Berlin to start the tour.

New Ship and Tours Available

Vienna P r o g r a m I m p r o v e d

By Joyce Pollitt As s u m m e r plans begin to take form in the minds of Hope students, visions of traveling abroad invariably arise. The time to start acting on these d r e a m s is fast approaching.

Tentative plans for the 1966 Hope College Vienna Summer School have been unveiled and a change in appearance is evident.

Dr. Paul G. Fried '46, who has continued to direct the program to its eleventh season, expresses much enthusiasm as he discloses various aspects of the forthcoming Vienna Summer School.

What are some of the changes In this year's program?

Dr. Fried: This will be the llth year that Hope College has presented a Vienna Summer School and it will be the longest in its history, offering many new features with it.

Departure is set for June 7, when students will board the Cabo San Vicente, an air-conditioned transAtlantic liner which we will be using for the first time. Much larger than the previous ship that we used, it allows four persons to share a cabin.

The ship will dock in England this time instead of on the continent. Students will travel directly to Berlin, where they will remain for five days as guests of the city.

Another pioneer venture will be the Eastern and Western Study Tours r a t h e r than Northern and Southern tours. The tours will be extended to 22 days this time.

To what places will these study tours take 'the students?

Dr. Fried: The Eastern Study Tour will be able to spend two weeks behind the iron curtain, where visits to Prague, Warsaw, Krakow, Budapest and Zagreb will be made. Poland will be celebrating her millennium during their visit there. Concerts, operas, meetings with foreign students, briefings, and factory and university visits are among the planned activities.

Churches, museums, and historic landmarks in Strassbourg, Colm a r , Zurich, Florence, and Rome will highlight the Western Study Tour. Both groups will join again in Yugoslavia and go on to Vienna together.

This program has much academic respectability besides being an enjoyable adventure. What studies wrtl be offered?

Dr. Fried: The heart of the whole summer is the six weeks study in Vienna. Students may, in fact, elect to go over on their own and study in Vienna.

Courses scheduled will again include art, history, music, literature and German. Any other course that can best be taught in Europe will be offered if an interest is shown by at least five or six students. One such possibility is a course in architecture. In each course there are some field related trips, for we want to offer something more than classroom instruction.

During their mid-term break students can choose one of three trips: to Italy, Salzburg, P r a g u e or Budapest.

Where will students live during their stay in Vienna? Your bulletins have always stressed the fact that they actually become residents of the city of Vienna.

Dr. Fried: That's right. They will live in Viennese apartments with Austrian families or with landladies. Usually there is a great deal of contact between the student and his host, but that depends upon them.

Students will receive their breakfast where they live, while lunch will be eaten with the other students in the dining room of an old palace. A cash refund will be given to them for the purchase of their own supper. This prepares them for their independent travel.

A period of free time following the end of the s u m m e r session will again permit students to get "off the beaten p a t h " on their own for three weeks before they meet for

U

the return flight f r o m P a r i s on Sept. 9.

What would you suggest for students who wish to travel to Europe on their own?

Dr. Fried: The Vienna Summer School is not the only way to go to Europe. If students want to go on their own, the Great Lakes Charter allows them to fly to and from Paris quite reasonably. It offers a similar flight to J a p a n from San Francisco too.

If one wants intensive language study, the Goethe Institute in Germany and the French p r o g r a m at the University of Pau in F r a n c e are both excellent.

Work p r o g r a m s of different kinds are offered, but many tend to involve long hours and low pay with little f r e e time. The most notable exception is the International Assn. for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience. We have placed several chemistry and biology students in this program in previous years. The deadline for student applications for this program is December 15, 1965.

Readers Speak Out

Dear Editor . .

I wish to thank the education department for their concern for the individual student's understanding of general concepts of lectures.

The sheets handed out previously to the Rev. Mr. Hillegonds' truly excellent lecture on "Agents of Communication" must be termed helpful and effective. Since they were collected after the lecture, we can be sure that they will be put to good use (i.e., the slips could prove beneficial for purposes of recording attendance, keeping attention and evaluating student expression.)

It would appear that we students

PRESS

of Hope College must be forced to attend such "lecture" periods as chapel, the education series and Tuesday morning assemblies. In cases where attendance is not required of recorded, we feel no great obligation to listen to the "boring unknowns" placed before us. Pressure is our only motivation! (Students love those pluses and minuses!)

We anxiously await knowledge of the guidance measure which will be taken at the next education series lecture.

§ade Reveals Warped Imagination

By Bryce Butler The Grove P r e s s has recently published the first collection of Sadean literature to be offered in English. This lat-ge edition, called simply.

"The Marquis de Sade," contains two introductions, a chronology of Sade's life, a selection of letters and personal documents, two philosophical dialogues and two moral tales, including " J u s t i n e , " Sade's m a j o r work.

Sade lived in F r a n c e during the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries.

V Let us begin with the obvious.

A rationalist (at least partially) and a liberal, he had high hopes This is an excessive book. The for a complete change of society language is the vilest, the events to come out of the Revolution. His social aims are s u m m e d up in a portrayed are the products of pamphlet entitled "Yet Another Effort, F r e n c h m e n , If You Would a warped and feverish imaginaBecome Republicans," which is reproduced in the present work. tion and the ideas that support These aims are largely a very radical extension of the aims of them arc the works of a mind most French intellectuals and revolutionaries of the time. given over to madness. ^ Was Censored The chief interest in Sade's work stems f r o m its transitional position between rationalism and existentialism, its treatment of certain morbid psychological conditions and its analysis of the concepts of power and destruction.

poet Swinburne, waxed clearly insane in their praise.

While Sade predicted that his work would be forgotten, and while it has been heavily censored since it was written, being offered only in bowlederized versions, or, sub rosa, in editions calculated to stress the pornographic character, it has always had its students (Dostoyevsky, Strindberg) and its partisans, some of whom, like the

cause of this, the book is almost unbearably repetitious, even to the arguments the heroes use to justify their way of life. Finally, the presentation is entirely discursive.

There is no use of art, no symbolism and no presentation of real human beings or real human situations.

And the book is dangerous. In reading it, one must be intelligent enough to resist the sophistries that fill the pages, sane enough neither to be convinced by the arguments nor fascinated by the details and strong - stomached enough to quell the waves of nausea that flow over him with each new debauch.

Not Literature In a very real sense, this book is not literature at all, as the author never manages to achieve any distance from his subject.

Some writers who worked out their personal problems through their art were able to c r e a t e great fiction in their attempt: D. H. Law-

G. B. Shaw on the 'Messiah'

By Barb Kouw The forthcoming performance of Handel's "Messiah" brings to mind a few words of George Bernard Shaw (many words, actually, since G.B. has never been known to express himself in a few words) dealing with a particular English (England type English, that is) performance of the work in question.

Painful as it is for me to admit this, it must be said that the (great) m a n ' s comments are . . . interesting.

ments in the work, "but the 'Messiah' is not all Hallelujah."

Even so, one must tolerate "the experience of listening to the fiercely tumultuous 'He trusted in God,' with its alternations of sullen mockery with highpitched derison and its savage shouts of 'Let Him deliver Him if He delight in Him," jogging along at about half the proper speed, with an expression of the

Beginning with the statement that he has for some time "recognized the impossibility of obtaining justice for that work in a Christian country," Shaw goes on to describe the "typical" perf o r m a n c e of the "Messiah." A sampling of his observations: "To h e a r a thousand respectable young English persons joggling through 'For he shall purify the sons of Levi' as if every group of semiquavers were a whole bar of four crotchets a capella, or repeating 'Let Him deliver Him if He delight in Him are healed,' or lumbering along with 'Hallelujah' as if it w e r e a . superior sort of family coach. All this is ludicrous enough: but when the nation proceeds to brag of these unwieldy choral impostures, these attempts to make the brute force of a thousand throats do what can only be done by artistic insight and skill, then I really lose patience. Most of us would be glad to h e a r the work seriously performed once before we die."

Granted, t h e r e are high mo-

sisting of no less than thirty-two semiquavers."

A comment upon the cooperation between the chorus and orchestra: "In the beginning of 'For unto us.' the tenors and basses told each others the news in a prosaic, methodical way which m a d e the chorus quite comic until the thundering 'Wonderful, Counsellor,' one of Handel's mightiest strokes, was reached: and even here the effect was disappointing, because the chorus, having held nothing in reserve, could m a k e no climax. The orchestra needed at that point about twenty more of the biggest of big d r u m s . " In the midst of all this confusion, " T h e impulse to sing soreads even to the audience: and those who are old hands at choral singing do not always restrain it."

Of course there is more — with G.B. there is always more.

(And still more). Let us take these words and ponder them in our hearts. For unto us a performance will be given.

deepest respect and propriety, as if a large body of the leading citizens, headed by the mayor, were presenting a surpassingly dull address to somebody."

As "three thousand five hundred choristers" sing "like a howling bloodthirsty m o b , " the result of a chorus such as "For He shall purify- the sons of Levi" is such that "the syllable 'fy' comes out in a single trait con-

As for me, I shall be thinking of you (and, involuntarily, perhaps of Shaw) as I sit wedged between a row of flutes and oboes and directly in front of the hundred-odd voice choir, trying desperately at the same time to avoid the wildly animated and uncontrolled bow of the immersed second-violinist to my right and to discern whether or not there are indeed sweet notes flowing from the bell of my clarinet.

Oh, the bathos of it all! Hallelujah, I say!

rence is a good example. Sade never manages this, however, perhaps because his approach (in keeping with his time) was too rational. The characters and the ideas are not exposed to the developmental process of art, which might change them, as it did, for instance, in "Wuthering Heights," which has very similar ideas.

Indeed. Sade's fanaticism stands in the way of his explicit purpose in some cases. The author's preface to " J u s t i n e " presents his purpose of writing a moral tale to show that, although good is not triumphant over evil, it is a more blessed estate. In a footnote, however, the speaker, who is clearly the author, continues and enlarges upon the arguments used by the heroes he has declared he will renounce. Even if he were setting up a joke with his preface 'and this is unlikely, as he dedicated it to the only person he ever really loved), an author speaking for one of his characters in a footnote is just not good art.

Inflamed to Pervisions One gets the idea, particularly in "Justine," but also in his other works, that, regardless of his purpose, as soon as Sade began writing. he became inflamed (much as his characters become inflamed as they speak) and repeated his harangue against God, man and morality to get it out of his svstem.

One may also imagine that he took an equally unartistic joy in dreaming up and presenting new perversions for his heroines to undergo.

In view of all this, his works may be more instructively read as documents than as literature. The main subject is not sex or even sadism, but the anti-Christ, and all of Sade's heroes exemplify this type.

Not a Monster In this context, the chronology of Sade's life is very significant.

He was not. in life, the monster one might expect him to be. It is true that, early in his life, he was featured in one rather obscure incident involving four "servant girls and an overdose of Spanish Fly and that his t r e a t m e n t of his wife was such that she left him, but his policies, both expressed and enacted as a government official for the revolutionary French Republic, were liberal and lenient. I almost said " h u m a n e , " but they were not.

A very instructive passage from

Sade's personal papers is relevant here. Writing from prison, he begs the authorities to release him on the grounds that he is not the sort of person who will benefi! from this sort of correction.

That he realized that the proper purpose of prison is correction is a 1 ! to his credit, but that he wished to be exempted from it is ambiguous. On the one hand, it is certain\y the consistent expression of a man who believed that we are the determined products of our en-

vironment: but on the other hand, doesn't such a position, in respect to one's self, denote a certain yielding of humanity?

Sadean Hero Free From God Here, it seems, is the key to Sade's work: it contains no human beings at all. The Sadean hero lias claimed his freedom from God and from the ties that bind him to his fellow man. The existence of the libertine's victims is absolutely negligible and the heroes revel in this fact. The fact and they way in which they rage against God (particularly in a state of passion) seem to point to the hero as an anti-Christ.

Thus, the liberalism of Sade's politics is merely another side of this same non-human character, a full and systematic expression of which may be found in "The Grand Inquisitor" by Dostoyevsky.

A? the victims are always seen in eyes very much like those of their tormentors, these victims a r e not human either, but grovelirg animals, their morality weakness, their ideas silly cant.

Enough. Away with the man!

Let us get these things from Nietzsche or Dostoyevsky or St. John's Apocalypse.

If I did say that modern education inherited more from the Reformation than from the Renaissance, I was plainly in error. What I said was that modern education inherited more from the Rennaissance than from the Reformation. This was the thrust of the entire lecture.

Review of the News Professional Love

Editor's note: A native of Hungary, Dr. Joseph Arvai-Zsiros taught at the Theological Seminary of Sarospatak and at Debrecen University in Hungary before coming to America in 1947. He taught in Hope's religion and Bible dept. for eight years before assuming pastorates with Hungrian Reformed Churches in Toledo and Milwaukee. In 1959 he returned to Hope, becoming associate professor of Greek.

By Dr. Joseph Arvai-Zsiros We live in apocalyptic times. If this can be said of any age, the following indeed applies to our time; disorder, lifeless turbulence and chaotic indifference.

Our age—if we consider its manifestations of life—is dreadfully bleak and desolate and desperately gloomy. Open wounds fester on the body of mankind. Destruction, cruelty, bloodshed and disorder prevail everywhere. The fiends of godlessness have been unleashed in the world to exterminate even that tiny germ of strength that the world wars have left as the seed of life for f u t u r e generations. The world has become depraved in both its society and institutions. The foundations of nations are tottering; death has cast his awful shodow in the life of Christianity, be cause the human soul, this pillar of the life-strength of the community, is mortally ill.

Urgent Questions Arise Knowing this, urgent questions are arising in our hearts. What shall we do? Will we, our children and grandchildren survive the cataclysm to come? How can we save our ancient heritage, the moral goods and eternal values of life for those dear to us. . . . And what is the correct way through which we are able to arrive at a more secure and blessed future?

One thing is evident: wars cannot solve the ardent problems of the world. Weapons are deepening the painful wounds in the hearts.

The more disputes are held in confcrence-rooms, the more insurmountable seems U? be the abyss between the different world views.

If any solution will be brought into our suffering world, it will come

out of the free grace of God through the sinccre and true service of peace.

Since we do not want to lose, we have to prepare our youth for this service through the most peaceful way, through Christian Education based upon love that is available for all races, nations, churches, communities and individuals. Let us not be misunderstood. Here we do not think of the teaching of special religious truths only, but we keep in sight the religious character of teaching.

The original meaning of education authorizes us to speak on this kind of teaching. Its basic form in Latin "educo" expresses more than teaching in general sense, or the technique of teaching; it means to bring up, maintain, raise, produce. The Greek equivalent is a compound verb "paidagogeo" with the following meanings: to lead, to attend children, to care for them.

Whole Human Involved According to this the goal of education can not be less than the whole human being with his physical, moral, psychical and spiritual life spheres. A young man must be healthy physically, because his healthy body is the most suitable basis upon which the development of his moral, psychical and spiritual life can hopefully be expected.

The ancient statement " m e n s sana in corpore sano" is available in modern education, too.

Man's moral discretion enables him to discern between good and bad, nice and ugly, wise and foolish, righteous and unrighteous.

His psychical power forces him to concentrate his mind to perceive thoughts, to recognize truths. It makes him critical of the values of scientific laws offered to him by his teachers. When and where the psychical power arrives to the limits of its finality, then and there the spiritual might of life lifts its possessor above the difficulties through faith. The education at this point will get its religious character.

Role of Teacher The only desire from the part of religion for the teacher is to form himself into a personality, from whose heart firm conviction and lively ideas are radiated toward the mind and heart of his audience. Without this vivid influence even the well known scientist will become a cold machine for those who want to be led and taught by him. In other words, the science offered by the teacher has to be his personal value, a life-forming power, thru which the person who receives it, must feel that the knowledge possessed by his m a s t e r is a living piece of his life. So teachers and professors who want to communicate scientific values and eternal truths must first be filled

with professional love, d e a r ideas, living faith and prophetic vision.

Education Is Continual In such teachers' lives the time will very soon come when they recognize that they build the foundation omy. Euucation cannot be finished in school. The task of education with which they a r e entrusted is not material, but formal in its substance. It does not consist of taking perfectly prepared materials and stuffing them into the empty brains of uneducated men. Its duty is to awaken the inventive powers and constructive abilities of the immortal souls created for unimaginable development and growth; and to strengthen them for their independent works outside of the school, in the service of life.

m i I

Hope Awaits Youth's Power Hope College, this scientific center of the Reformed Church in America, this fortress of Christian Education, waits for our youth with the riches of her "topos noetos" 'intellectual space* to help them to grow up and to fight for their own spiritual values: The truth ot science; the power of faith; and the might of love.

One more matter. Our honest request to the leaders and members of our churches and to the alumni of our beloved college is not to forget that the heavenly measurement of life is sacrifice.

Edited by Jack Schrier A devastating blow was struck at the prestige of DeGauIIe in elections held this past Sunday.

The General, who had asked for an overwhelming vote of confidence from the French people ended up with only 44 per cent of the vote while his closest rival, Francois Mitterand, the Socialist candidate with communist support, polled 32 per cent of the vote.

Although many sources suggested that he would quit rather than face a runoff with Mitterand on Dec. 19, Charles swallowed his pride and announced that he would run against Mitterand.

However, his obvious loss of prestige at home has already undermined his prestige abroad and it is quite doubtful that the 75-year-old French leader will ever exercise great influence again. Providing he wins the Dec. 19 runoff, and he is expected to. it will probably be his last term as French president.

The war in Vietnam continues.

The South Vietnamese Army has re-established its control over 35-40 per cent of the counryside in the strategic Delta area. The Viet Cong control about 25 per cent of this ricerich bread-basket. Since the beginning of 1965 when the Delta was virtually "lost l a n d " to the present division, the government forces' victories, although not spectacular, have been regular.

O u r Man i n E u r o p e

A Warlike People

By Bob Donia

CRNA GORA. Yugoslavia — Titograde is the new name for the city of Podgorica, Yugoslavia.

It is the capital of Montenegro (Crna Gora in Serbo - Croatian, meaning Black Mountain.)

Montenegro is the wildest and most desolate of the Yugoslavian Republics. From the Italian-like coast along the Adriatic Sea, the .mountains of Crna Gora seem to rise directly unto the sky. Inland, they are rocky, barren and bleak.

Occasionally one sees a small plot of earth salvaged from the vastness by a poor farmer—but such things are found only in small pockets formed by the towering rocks. The only dwellings are single stone huts, scattered infrequently through the mountains and occasionally- clustered together, never more than 12 or so, to form a village.

F o r centuries the main occupation of the Montenegrins was fighting foreign invaders, mostly the Turks, who never fully conquered the province. (Along with Dubroynik, Crna Gora stood as the only independent South Slav area during the period of the Turkish conquest.) Poor, but intensely pround, these people did and still do cling

tenaciously to the land which bred them.

The Montenegrins remain in the 20th century a people conditioned to w a r f a r e more than the pursuits of peace. Other Yugoslavs tend to look down on them as lazy, indolent parasites on the rest on the country. To the foreigner they appear somewhat more volatile,suspicious, unpredictable and primitive than the other Yugoslav nationalities, most of which are themselves a long way from western European development.

A personal example should help illuminate the character of these people. On arrival in Titograd, this writer was with two Rumanian tourists and a Yugoslav friend from Macedonia. In getting off the bus, we were surrounded by at least half a dozen Montenegrins offering private rooms. Having accepted the offer of one woman, the others began chattering that foreign tourists were not allowed in private homes and that the polrce searched any homes giving rooms to foreigners in the middle of the night.

The woman then retracted her offer and we headed for the more expensive hotel. However, a little

attack on an area about 250 miles northeast of Saigon. The Marines went ashore without firing a shot and moved on their objectives. . . . More than 25 Viet Cong were killed.

An interesting set of figures appeared in the Dec. 6 Wall Street Journal. They quote the V.C. as claiming 200 jet pilots killed in their Saturday predawn raid on an enlisted-men's billet in Saigon. U.S. figures, backed by news correspondants, show eight persons killed, including only one American and 139 wounded including 72 Americans. P e r h a p s the Viet Cong, by these extravagant claims, are trying to convince themselves and the world that they are still in control of the situation.

Rhodesia has indeed started out on a rocky and treacherous i path by declaring unilateral independence. Britain has already applied economic sanctions by taking control of the Rhodesian Reserve Bank and its reserve assets. Rhodesia retailiated by repudiating her external debt repayments due.

Worse yet; Africa is incensed.

A weekend conference of 36 African States issued a warning that its m e m b e r s would break diplomatic relations with London if Britain hasn't put an end to the rebellion by Dec. 15, 1965. They also agreed in principle to declare war on Rhodesia on that date and appointed a five nation council to prepare military action.

girl followed us and persuaded us to accept her offer, which we did since the crowd was not around.

Upon reaching the home, we discovered that the ten-year-old girl was the daughter of the s a m e rugged, hardy peasant woman who had retracted her offer at the bus station. Also, t h e price had strangely risen 25 per cent since the episode at the station.

Montenegro, despite s o m e industry built in Titograd, is still underdeveloped. The only overland routes from the coast to Titograd are a narrow guage railroad and a bus. This writer took the latter, having formerly experienced the less-than-rapid progress of southern Yugoslav trains. The bus at one point crossed a fiord of the Adriatic by " f e r r y , " which consisted of two, long, narrow boats connected by a wooden platform just large enough for the bus and a few cars. The road is quite good, though it is far from frequently used and snow-covered as of this writing.

Though primitive and barren, Montenegro is nonetheless a land of majestic and beautiful landscapes. It is a pity that Yugoslavia is not often visited by Westerners: Though life is primitive, n a t u r e is fantastic. The forlorn, windblown mountains, eerie by night, inhabited by a people eking out a n existence from the barren waste, provides the occasional visitor with a glimpse of nature at its crudest but most spectacular heights.

The Cat's Paw

On Going Home Editor's -note: A cat's-paw is a sailing term used to describe a sudden puff of wind which rises from nowhere, catches one unaware and disappears as suddenly as it rose. It is a light wind rippling the surface of water during a calm. "The Cat's Paw" does not intend to raise a storm, but rather just to ripple the calm of life's everyday tasks with a simple thought.

I was sitting at my desk Tuesday night, contemplating what else I could do before I had to study for a German test. I had already polished my shoes, so I was at a loss. My mind wandered toward the coming Christmas vacation.

I thought about a friend of mine down the hall who would be going home to Denver to spend the holidays. I suddenly felt I should pray for him to have a safe journey. 1 was about to shut my eyes (wondering if that made any difference anyway), when I though that I should also pray for my girl friend who is at Calvin, partly for Chat reason, but mostly that she could have a safe trip home too. I also decided I might as well pray for a safe trip for myself. Why not?

Then I remembered that practically all the students at Hope College would be going home. And since generally I like them too (which is irrelevant, I suppose),

The

W h o Is Santa?

I thought I had also better pray for them. And while I'm at it, why not everyone who is going home for Christmas, no matter where they are?

It struck me then that this was an awful lot of people to pray for.

And as I progressed from praying for one person to praying for a mass of people, I seemed to become less confident as to how much my prayer would mean, to me or to anybody, or how much it would accomplish.

Why did my intention seem to become less and less important?

I decided the answer had something to do with meaning. I had meaning when I was going to pray for one person. When I included everyone. I lost it. 'But too, I do hope everyone has a safe trip home. I don't want anyone to get hurt.

Then why was the meaning lost?

After a little pondering. I decided that it must only be a false face that society (or religion) makes me wear, that I pretend to be concerned about everyone. Do I care at all about soldiers in Vietnam?

— soldiers besides my friends, that it? Do I care at all about those of you who are going home for Christmas?

Probably not. but maybe I do — God be with you.

— The Cat's Paw

By Gordon Korstange There is a friend mine named Harold who is a cynic. He hates Christmas. In fact, one Christmas he sent out form letters to little children telling them that their parents were really Santa. Harold also went to the Macy's Thanksgiving parade and threw tomatoes at Santa Claus.

So it came as a surprise to me when I saw Harold one late December day standing on the sidewalk, rioging a bell and dressed in a Santa's suit. It was bitterly cold outside and Harold was shivering. His beard was long and scraggily and uneven; his suit had faded to a dull pink color; and the pillow placed under the suit kept falling down causing him to curse and push it back in his coat.

There he stood, ringing his bell

"Are you Santa Claus?"

Harold was taken aback. How could she really think he was the fat man- He looked down at her thin, pinched face and felt sad, not bitter.

"Of course, I am. little girl."

She looked at him skeptically and said. "Santa, you're a phoney." emerging in 10 minutes with a slight glow on his face.

me from a speeding car. It was a group of underclassmen heading home about three weeks early to enjoy the Yule vacation. As they zoomed down the street, their trunk came open and revealed a good semester's worth of unread text books.

But Christmas is still an odd time. It's a time of Barbi dol' sales, tinker toys (if you tinker with toys, they break and you have to buy more expensive models), evergreen trees which are only sometimes green, snow ball fights (if the "packin' " is good), food, lots of Church and sleeping late in the morning.

And Christmas happens at a time of the year when it's cold, dark and everything looks dead.

It happens in a year of war and wars. (I heard last week on the radio that the "kill-ratio" was 4 to 1 in our favor . . . what could anyone add to t h a t ? ) And it happens in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and sixty-five, even now.

I suppose that Christmas is, in part, just standing back from Saigon, Lucy Baines and our coursescheduling long enough to see that night sky and hear that kid, Christ, crying. We might be able to understand what that baby meant when we weren't running our lives out in a circle of idiocy and pain. But His birth (and, in a sense, the birth of every moment), is an intersection of the eternal and the present, of God

and us feeble mortals.

Maybe that's part of the mystery of Christmas and of Christ; that very moment of birth confirming the true worth of this life and a promise of the next. (End of Speculation on the Meaning of Christmas which will be continued, hopefully, in the private of the mind.)

But Aunt Lydia. who is always impatient with anything that smacks of thought, simply wishes everyone Happy Times and All. So do I. And Auntie Maud says "Merry C h r i s t m a s " to everyone and suggests if anyone wants a good recipe for chicken, just take two parts neighbor, one part nerve, one part luck, etc., etc.

OrQdJi Concert J a m e s H. Tallis will present an organ concert Sunday at 4 p.m. in Hope Church, to dedicate the new 42-rank pipe organ which has just been installed.

The program will include "Messe poud les Convents" (Mass for Convents) by Couperin, Daquin's noel "Grant Jeu et Duo," three choral preludes by Bach, and Brahm's Chorale prelude on " E s ist ein Ros' entsprugen."

did give money he glared at them as if to say, "Why didn't you give more?" Apparently Harold had donned this costume in order to strike out personally at the heart of Christmas . . . money.

It was late in the day and Harold was tired. He had given up ringing his bell now and slouched against a post. Snow had begun to fall softly and the city's Christmas lights shone brightly in contrast to the dirty slush on the streets and sidewalks. People rushed home laden with gifts to their holy children. And one child not so holy appeared. a little match girl who was shivering and blue from the cold.

She limped along dragging one crippled foot behind her. The shoppers ignored her as she vainly tried to sell matches. Then she saw Harold, dressed in his bedraggled Santa suit and standing bitterly by his pot.. She limped up to the pot. carefully scrutinized him and said,

A psychiatrist told me that Harold was latently resentful toward his father and mother who both worked as department store Santas when Harold was young. Apparently Harold had a traumatic experience at the age of four when he went to see Santa and he turned out to be his mother! "Resentment and lack of identification." the psychiatrist intoned meaningfully.

Changeling

A million unimaginable things happened last week. Auntie Maud got caught stealing chickens from a neighbor's barn.

She claims she was only trying to keep in shape in case there is another poultry famine; she still remembers the horrors of the Great Hen Hunger of '17. On general numanitarian grounds, the neighbor decided not to press charges. And Harvey Bates slipped on the ice while making the traditional 7:58 run to Chapel. Luckily it was only a minor concussion and the clinic reported that after two aspirins, he seemed improved.

I suppose I could talk about them or how more pink slips arcimproving pre - registration.

(I sometimes think that Hell is a huge bureaucracy in which everyone sits around and eternally fills out forms.) Or how all the "Keep Off the Grass" signs have been trampled over by students running across lawns to their next class. But I won't . . . because it's Christmas.

Christmas is an odd thing. The first inkling of it this year came last Monday when Selma Finkbone sang "He Shall Feed His Flock" while arranging the rolls in the Kletz. It's her favorite part of the " M e s s i a h " or "The Messy" as she calls it. Then Freddie Le Furd asked me if I needed a ride home to New York: only eight in his Volkswagen at $55 round trip.

He said his price was due to inflation; I said I would hitch-hike.

Then, while downtown buying a tube of striped (yellow and purple) toothpaste, I saw someone buying 302 Christmas cards with a picture on the front of the Holland City Hall being blessed by the Archangel Michael.

To top it all off, someone screamed "Merry Christmas ,, to

half-heartedly and glaring at the shoppers who passed his charity pot without giving him a glance.

Every hour on the hour he picked up his pot and entered into a bar.

After a few hours of this Harold became raucous. He began grabbing shoppers by their a r m s and brusquely demanding money. Ail he got for his trouble was some sharp blows with umbrellas and pocketbooks. And when someone

Harold pondered this. Then slowly, with gravity, he took the money out of the pot, handed it to the match girl.

"You're right, kid," he said.

"I'm not Sant Claus. You are."

With that, my friend Harold walked toward the red light of the Bar.

Senate OKs Recommendation For Change in Chapel Removal of the Monday-Wednesday and Tuesday-Thursday chapel system was recommended to the Religious Life Committee at the Dec. 2 meeting of the Student Senate.

Under the new proposal students will be allowed to attend chapel on any two days between Monday and Thursday. The choice of days would be left up to the student, providing he attend at least two days a week. There will still be the allowance of one week to make up unexcused absences.

The student center board reported that the union will be open Dec. 11 with records for dancing. In the future plans will be made to have different c a m p u s organizations sponsor an "evening in the union" as the freshman class did last Friday evening.

Dick Shiels, NSA co-ordinator. reported that he felt the Vietnam Conference had been well attended and very worthwhile. In the future

it is hoped that the student body will undertake the adoption of a Vietnam village as students at Michigan State University have recently done.

Speaking for the Kletz Committee. Bob Thompson reported that Mrs. Dorothy Burt, Kletz manager. was extremely pleased with the student response to the opening of the Kletz on Monday and Wednesday evenings. There seems to be no reason why the Kletz will not remain open evenings after the month trial period if students continue to make use of the campus extra.

A representative of the Senate is always in the office in the basement of Graves each day from 3 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. to serve the siudents in any capacity possible.

The Student Senate meets each Thursday evening at 6:30 p.m.

D u t c h Yield toValpo Zone A f t e r W i n n i n g O p e n e r

By James Mace Hope's defending MIAA champion basketball team got its 1965-66 campaign off on the right foot last Saturday night wih a 91-64 triumph over visiting Concordia College, but the Flying Dutch ran into an almost unbreakable -zone press at Valparaiso last Tuesdya and lost by a 104-65 count to the classy Crusaders.

Captain Clare Van Wieren sparked the Dutch to their initial win with a 25 point effort, helping to cap a 49 point second half which nailed down the win. Don Kronemeyer, one member of Hope's backcourt, was also in the 20 bracket with 22 markers. It was Kronemey»er who put the Dutch ahead for good with a two-pointer that made the score 73-72.

Floyd Brady, last year's freshman sensation who was honored with a berth on the second AllMIAA team, had 17 points, while Carl Walters was also in twin figures with 16 markers. Roy Anker, the other starter for the Flying Dutch, finished the contest with nine points.

Cougars Lead at Half The first half of play seesawed back and forth with neither squad taking any definite lead. A pair of baskets by Terry Peiper near the end of the half gave the Cougars a 43-42 margin at intermission.

Hope failed on nine of 17 f r e e shots in the first half and missed the opportunity to go off the court with the lead.

However, strong rebounding by Anker, Brady and Van Wieren

helped the Dutch keep close throughout the first 20 minutes of play. The second half opened up with a quick nine^point splurge by the Dutch. Baskets by Van Wieren, Walters and Kronemeyer gave the locals a 51-43 edge.

Peiper and shifty guard Tom Castons led the Cougars back and the visitors knotted the count at 64-64 with 10 minutes left to play.

Peiper and Tom Ruppert scored the next eight points between them and Concordia led 72-69. After a pair of free throws by Brady, Kronemeyer hit from the corner to give the Dutch the lead that they never lost a f t e r that.

Dutch Take Lead Walters, Brady, Van Wieren and Kronemeyer all added baskets after that to give the Dutch their final seven-point spread. Overall, the home five hit on 51 per cent of its shots while the visiting Cougars hit 44 per cent. Hope missed 11 free throws but the Dutch hauled down 48 rebounds to only 31 for Concordia to give the winners a decisive edge.

J i m "Klein, a third-year man, also saw action for the Dutch and he added two points, while Bill Potter also got into the g a m e but failed to score. Tom Ruppert, 6'7" senior center for the Cougars, led the losers with 22 m a r k e r s , while Peiper had 15 points and Castons had 14.

Valparaiso Press Valparaiso put on a nearly complete full game, full court zone press that upset the Dutch and gave the Crusaders a chance to

get off to an early lead. Seniors Vern Curtis and Rich Eynon sparked the starting Valpo burst that put the winners out in front 21-10 about halfway through the half.
