FOREWORD 1851 - 1951 Our memories a r e some of our fondest treasures — experie n c e s a n d priceless d r e a m s which will never reoccur. Some of these experiences m a k e us smile; others bring a few tears, but all a r e a part of our growth a n d learning. A few of our d r e a m s h a v e b e e n fulfilled, but most h a v e b e e n stars beckoning in the distance, guiding us a l o n g the p a t h w a y to k n o w l e d g e a n d to fuller lives. As our experiences a n d d r e a m s h a v e enriched our lives, so did the experiences a n d d r e a m s of our forfathers enrich theirs, e n a b l i n g them to ever struggle a n d r e a c h b e y o n d into the future a n d to fulfill h o p e s a n d aspirations. O n e h u n d r e d y e a r s a g o a "Pioneer School" w a s formally o p e n e d . It w a s through the active ambitions a n d experiences of m a n y who r e a c h e d out, g r a s p i n g for the stars before them, that a m a n ' s d r e a m w a s fulfilled. Realizations a n d disappointments, successes a n d failures h a v e b l e n d e d together to form our college t o d a y — the college of which Dr. A. C. Van Raalte said o n e h u n d r e d y e a r s ago, "This is my anchor of h o p e for this p e o p l e in the future." And so it is the desire of the Milestone staff of 1951, with this a n n i v e r s a r y edition, to recall with thankfulness a n d a p p r e c i a tion, the experiences a n d d r e a m s of those to whom w e a r e ind e b t e d for m a k i n g possible four of the most precious y e a r s of our lives. And it is also our wish that all who s c a n these p a g e s m a y feel that in some w a y the class of 1952 h a s contributed to the strength a n d g r e a t n e s s of our "anchor of Hope."

O n e such p e r s o n is Miss L a u r a Boyd, c h a i r m a n of the D e p a r t u r e of G e r m a n a n d one of the most a d m i r e d a n d r e s p e c t e d p e r s o n s on our c a m p u s . As a G e r m a n t e a c h e r s h e h a s m a d e her courses a n inspiring s t u d y of s o m e of the world's b e s t literature. As P a n - H e l l e n i c Council a d v i s o r she h a s h e l p e d u s to form more significant a n d i n t e r e s t i n a social groups. As a m e m b e r of the Student Direction Committee a n d the Administrative Committee s h e h a s worked for the c o n s t a n t i m p r o v e m e n t of her a d o p t e d college. As a citizen of the c o m m u n i t y s h e h a s b e e n a part of the D a u g h t e r s of the A m e r i c a n Revolution. As a n e d u c a t e d w o m a n s h e h a s b e e n active in the W o m a n ' s Literary C l u b a n d in the local c h a p t e r of the A m e r i c a n Association of University Women. As a Christian s h e h a s b e e n o u t s t a n d i n g in her church a n d t a u g h t a S u n d a y School class for twenty-five y e a r s . But b e s t of all w e s e e Miss Boyd a s a friend, one w h o is interested, c o n c e r n e d , a n d s y m p a t h e t i c with all the s t u d e n t s on c a m p u s . Miss Boyd h a s stood for m a n y y e a r s a s o n e of the p r e s e r v e r s of tradition on our c a m p u s , a n d yet, she is not one to blindly follow tradition. She b e l i e v e s in u s i n g the b e s t of the p a s t to modify the p r e s e n t in order to m a k e the b e s t future. She r e m e m b e r s y e s t e r d a y but s h e lives t o d a y for a better tomorrow. Culture, tact, g r a c i o u s n e s s , p a t i e n c e , k i n d n e s s w o u l d b e just a few of her other a d m i r a b l e qualities. We of the class of 1952 feel that she r e p r e s e n t s the finest result of Christian e d u c a t i o n a n d w e look to her a s a n inspiring e x a m p l e to follow a n d to her c h a r a c t e r a s a n i d e a l g o a l to a t t a i n . Thus to the most loved a n d r e s p e c t e d l a d y on c a m p u s , to Miss L a u r a A. Boyd, w e the C l a s s of 1952 d e d i c a t e our "Milestone."

Kappa Delta

Kappa Delta entertains Alpha Chi.

For girls desiring to share their joy in Christ, K a p p a Delta provides information a n d opportunity for doing just that. Special speakers are called in; the girls discuss their own experiences in Christian work; a n d a stimulating project is undertaken each year. Miss Reeverts, the club's new adviser, opened the year's activities with a n informed talk concerning her mission work in the Kentucky hills. An impressive candlelight recognition service welcomed the new members. Christmas boxes were sent to Dulce, New Mexico, a n d Brewton, Alabama. Reports on summer opportunities for Christian service highlighted another meeting. And a joint Valentine meeting found the hearts of Alpha Chi a n d Kappa Delta members thrilled by "the love of God." Officers were: Pauline Hendrieth, President; Louise Loula, Vice President; Ruth Welt, Secretary; Marjorie Pickens, Treasurer; a n d Lucille Fikse, Sergeantat-Arms.

Sociology Club This h a s b e e n a g r a n d y e a r for us. We gained in both numbers a n d prestige a n d held some very fine meetings. On our field trip to Detroit w e visited the slums, Gillespie Street, a n d the neighborhood settlement houses. This year's field trip rates on a p a r with our previous trip to Chicago. Both were very interesting a n d informative. One of our other meetings w a s a forum on race relations. The subject w a s ably discussed by a group of our students representing various racial a n d religious minorities in American culture. Another meeting dealt with mental hospitals. We learned of types of patients, n u m b e r per hospital, a n d other details.

Philosophy Club

Maybe Plato could, but we Kant.

As the consistently large attendance at this year's meetings indicated, the Philosophy Club is not a n exclusive conclave of campus intelligensia. The universality of philosophy's a p p e a l w a s m a d e all the more evident by the n e a r violence which resulted over several controversial issues. Besides providing the opportunity to hear a n d consider superior p a p e r s by Dr. Clarence De Graaf, Dr. Richard Oudersluys, a n d Seminarian-co-sponsor Allen Dykstra, the Club initiated a new policy of directed discussion gatherings. The success of the first, occurring at the home of faculty cosponsor Dr. D. Ivan Dykstra, provided justification for other meetings like it. Officers for the year were Roger Shafer, President, a n d Harold Dean, Secretary-Treasurer.

The Anchor You are there! It is a morning in May, 1951. You a r e in a small paper-littered room. Your nostrils a r e filled with the pervading smell of printer's ink, a n d the staccato of typewriters cuts through the throbbing undertone that environs journalistic production. You glance at the m a s t h e a d spattered with n a m e s of journalistic prominence. Many of these correspondents h a v e seen service in the forbidden regions of Deanzoffisez a n d many will venture this y e a r into the unexplored regions of Fynlyagrad. Your meditations a r e interrupted by the clang of the telephone a n d one of the multitude snatches equipment a n d hurries off. A young man behind a large

desk beckons two others a n d a hushed conference is held. Four more people arrive with reams of paper marked "News," "Feature," "Sports," "Society." Nine hours have passed since you first stepped into the sanctum. You now hear only the soft shuffling of Hammermill Bond, a n d intermittent graphite scratchings. Only a few w e a r y persons remain. The solitude is broken finally with sighs a n d the stacking of copy. You join in the repartee a s desks are cleaned a n d closed. You see the h u g e stack of papers pushed into a n envelope a n d turn toward the door. You step out into the spring air of the campus; breathe deeply. "30" h a s b e e n written on Volume LX1I1 of t h e A N C H O R . . You w e r e there!

The Hope College Bond, under the direction of William Druckenmiller, a g a i n played a very prominent part in the activities about the campus. Stepping off at the beginning of the year, the b a n d entertained Riverview Park's vast audiences between halves at the home football games. The band, with its very colorful uniforms, went through some very clever a n d tricky formations during the football games. The famed Homecoming Par a d e w a s one of the many events of the year. Hope College w a s well represented at this a n n u a l affair. Holland saw a very loyal turnout to witness the p a r a d e with its beautiful floats a n d marching band. Featured also during the year w a s the very c a p a b l e basketball p e p band. The enthusiasm of the audience, together with the spirit of the p e p band, m a d e the g a m e s even more exciting a n d thrilling. Student conductors participated several times during these basketball games.

Delphi " . . . Memory turns while life shall last, Delta Phi, to you." As the sorority y e a r d r a w s to a close, w e look b a c k over it with a feeling of regret that it h a s e n d e d all too soon. September found all the Delphians at the Delphi fall house party eagerly renewing friendships, refreshing memories of past years, a n d making plans for the n e w year. As w e r e a d our Round Robin letters, w e s a w it a s a symbol of the joining of girls from various parts of the country a n d of different circumstances into one common sisterhood. The Round Robin Tea in October w a s the reason for the u n u s u a l excitement a n d bustling a b o u t campus. The traditional Delphi Fashion Show a d d e d touches of femininity, beauty, a n d charm to this occasion. Welcoming our n e w pledges in true Delphi style, w e m a d e our w a y to the Ranch House in G r a n d Rapids with corsages, honking horns, cars decked with blue a n d yellow streamers, a n d the flush of excitement on all our cheeks. The pledges aren't the only ones who shall long r e m e m b e r Pledge Night. Homecoming found us happily e n g a g e d in greetP a g e One Hundred Fourteen

ing our old a n d n e w alumni at the Delphi luncheon before the big game. Together w e cheered for the football team, for our Homecoming Queen, Delphian Lynn Van Weelden, a n d for the Delphi's float receiving honorable mention. Before the excitement subsided, w e found ourselves covering the town for clues to the treasure on the Date Night—Treasure Hunt. As a farewell gesture, our a n n u a l Delphi Christm a s breakfast w a s held at the Dutch Mill just before Christmas vacation. Returning from vacation w e saw clouds of exams h a n g i n g low over the c a m p u s (and our heads). In time they lifted, a n d w e viewed a sunny horizon filled with promises of good times in Delphi's future. The first bright spot w a s our Formal Party "Holiday For Hearts," held on February 10, at the Morton House in G r a n d Rapids. Some of the events which followed were the Penny Carnival, St. Patrick's Day Potluck, the All-College Sing, the Delphi Spring Informal Party, a n d the final Spring House Party after exams.

Dorian Turning the p a g e s in the a n n a l s of the Dorian society, this thirtieth y e a r h a s proved to b e one crowded with delightful memories. The first p a r a g r a p h of chapter 30 tells us of the traditional house party. After much eating, a n d more talking, Dorians b e c a m e a c g u a i n t e d with the executive committee for the fall semester. Kamela Korteling, Willie Devore, lulia Bernius, a n d Ellen Lidston were e a g e r to discuss plans for the coming year. Skimming over to the next p a g e , w e find that the first event on the a g e n d a w a s the traditional Homecoming breakfast. Dorians a t t e n d e d the homecoming g a m e in the afternoon along with a n a r r a y of mums. Dorians a n d their d a t e s g a t h e r e d for a h a y ride on a chilly night in November after which all met at Miller's b a r n for a snack. The details of the formal initiation ceremony are, told in the next p a r a g r a p h . A yellow rose, the symbol of Dorian friendship, w a s given to e a c h of the

12 novice members who pledged loyalty to Dorian. Reading on further, w e see that the members of Dorian g a t h e r e d at the Korteling home on Saturday, December 9, for the a n n u a l Christmas party. Aside from eating, talking, a n d gift-wrapping, officers were elected for the winter term. Beth Thompson, Dot Fennema, a n d Sally Palen led us through the rest of the year. Highlighting the events of the y e a r w a s the formal party, "The Highland Fling," at the Pantlind hotel in Grand Rapids. The "Mad Hatters" w a s the cause of many laughs at the Penny Carnival in February. Dorians really tried to win the "cup" for the second consecutive year. Coming n e a r the end of this, the thirtieth chapter in the history of the Dorian society, we a r e reminded of our participation in the All-college sing. Many a Dorian w a s breathless after those w e a r y hours of rehearsals. And so, the book comes to a close a s all Dorians look back upon this thirtieth y e a r of friendship.

Sorosis It's the girls who m a k e u p a sorority. It's the placid seniors laughing with jaunty juniors at the early lall house party. It's startled sophomores waiting to b e p l e a s e d at the round robin tea. Sophomores felt more at e a s e w h e n Sorosis o p e n e d ranks to them at Jeanne Ver Beek's home. By informal initiation time, one might h a v e said they w e r e almost cockyl But at informal initiation w h e n the accordion laughed, w h e n the a m o e b a couldn't function, a n d w h e n the mermaid wouldn't, or couldn't, sing the sorority song, the sophomores learned their places. And it took little more than ten cents to b u y the services of Pluto, or the Empire State Building, or a football for one week. Then, silent white set all at equilibrium in formal initiation. It's the school, too. Seniors, juniors, a n d sophomores aren't all that compose a satisfying society. The school m e a n s other people; it m e a n s alumni. The school generalizes with a homecoming; a n d Sorosis specializes on its a l u m n a e , fetes this branch of Homecoming b y a breakfast. The lady across thetable, who w a s in Sorosis not long ago, compliments you on the Mashwell House Coffee float; a n d she is e a g e r to h e a r more. You express hopes. You're hoping to live u p to last y e a r ' s record in P a g e One Hundred Twenty

the All-College Sing next spring. Dorothy Ten Brink conducts, a n d " S e r e n a d e " swells the chapel. . . . You're hoping to b e friends. Sibs a n d Sorosites meet for a Thanksgiving meeting. . . . Praters extend an invitation to Sorosis. . . . You're hoping to p r e p a r e a profitable a n d a n interesting booth at the Penny Carnival. All is confusing, like Alice in Wonderland. . . . You're hoping to b e better a s a group. Merry Mrs. Sennett comes in a s sponsor to Sorosis, bringing her bundle of ideas. . . . But it's still more than the people; a n d it's more than the school. It's partly a n occasion. Christmas m e a n s presents—philosophy of, humor about, music suggesing — the spirit of giving. The New Year comes in with crazy hats a n d party poetry. Cowboys s t a g e a rodeo; cows a n d horses run wild. The westerners sing; a judge a w a r d s ribbons. An election tea m e a n s m a n n e r s a n d more restraint than is seen at the spring house party. A formal evening enchants; couples a r e whirling, swirling, in "Gay Diversion." Down the streets of Paris this night. And u p the stairs of Sorosis always. They're climbing — these girls, a m o n g the rest of the school, upon occasion— climbing. This is Sigma Sigma!

Thesaurian Thesaurians first meeting opened with much spirit a n d enthusiasm. Each Theta w a s willing a n d e a g e r to m a k e this the best y e a r yet. It w a s a milestone; w e were ten y e a r s old. However, before long w e were h a r d at work on the Round Robin Tea. Theta Theater delighted all those who a t t e n d e d the performance. The Homecoming Brunch w a s a success, a n d our float, "Say It With Flowers," looked lovely. Eventually formal initiation came, a n d w e welcomed ten n e w m e m b e r s into our fellowship. Each p l e d g e received a red Thesaurian rose a s she knelt a n d rep e a t e d the creed. These were h a p p y d a y s a s old a n d n e w members b e c a m e acquainted. At Christmas w e h a d our a n n u a l meeting with the a l u m n a e in our newly decorated sorority room. Good fun a n d fellowship w a s enjoyed by all. The sorority song sounded better than ever a s the mellow voices of the a l u m n a e blended with the lighter tones of present members. At last c a m e the Penny Carnival. The theme was* "Alice in W o n d e r l a n d " a n d the Thetas served food to the "characters" who attended. Most of us will remember with delight the informal party. A beautiful snowy night w a s perfect for a P a g e O n e Hundred Twenty-Two

hayride. Everyone m a d e himself comfortable on a piece of straw a n d amid laughter a n d song rode through the snow-filled night. We e n d e d our evening with s q u a r e dancing a n d a satisfying meal. Much of the time now music could b e heard ringing from the walls of the sorority room. We worked hard in anticipation of the All College Sing. We h a d a reputation to uphold. And now the formal party. The Thetas a n d their escorts m a d e a striking picture a s a n April moon lent its touch of romance to the scene. Particularly delightful is the memory of our houseparty. We were reluctant to go to bed, a n d so, as the w a v e s lapped gently against the shores of Lake Michigan, Thesaurians could b e seen dotting the sand. Seniors thought longingly of the d a y s they w e r e leaving behind. The rest looked forward with e a g e r n e s s to n e w e r a n d even brighter horizons. It h a s b e e n a y e a r filled with joys, friendships, successes. The senior members h a v e now joined the ranks of the alumnae. It is not g o o d b y e to them but just, "until w e meet again." The ties of Thesaurian bind all the members together very closely. Theta G a m m a Pi plans another year of service to their college, their country, a n d their God.

A. S. A. Step right up, folks! A.S.A. is on p a r a d e . This year's show w a s a h u g e success, brought a b o u t by the efforts of sixty enthusiastic freshmen girls. O n e of the sideshows of this y e a r ' s performance w a s the Homecoming celebration. At the w e e hours of the morning, through fog, drizzle, a n d mist, four faithful souls strung crepe-paper, p o u n d e d nails, a n d stuck scotch t a p e on the A.S.A. float. Although w e didn't win the prize, w e w e r e proud of our contribution. Preceding the p a r a d e , all members, w e a r i n g white mums tied with green bows, g a t h e r e d at the Dutch Mill for breakfast. First rate entertainment w a s offered in the Tulip Room of the W a r m Friend Tavern w h e n w e s t a g e d our informal party, "Cupid's Court," on February 3. Admittance w a s only granted to those who p a s s e d through the heart s h a p e d entrance. Valentine boosters, b e a r i n g the n a m e s of e a c h couple, gaily d e c - , orated the walls of the court. The star performers of

P a g e O n e H u n d r e d Twenty-Four

the show were the crowned king a n d queen, a n d six of our early twentieth century models reacting the Charleston. W h e n it comes to music, the All-college-sing w a s brightened by the g a y rainbow colors of each A.S.A. member. The finale of this year's show w a s the colorful Spring Party held in May. No successful year's performance is accomplished without the g u i d a n c e of competent leaders. Our trainer for this year's show w a s Miss Mary Breid, assisted b y numerous ringmasters a m o n g which were our officers. As w e look over our books, w e a r e well a w a r e of the fact that w e h a v e completed a very successful a n d prosperous year. Through hard work a n d good times the "bonds we formed shall never break." Each one of us "will a l w a y s hold in our memory— our Alpha Sigma Alpha, the Freshmen Sorority."

Arcadian Fraternity houses returned to Hope's c a m p u s this fall. The college procured the Oggel home at 126 East Twelfth Street for the Arcadians. Fraternity activities b e g a n almost a s soon a s the twenty-three m e m b e r s who h a d chosen to live in the house h a d moved in. The activities consisted mainly of trying to m a k e the house livable in the midst of the confusion a l w a y s attendant on remodeling. By Homecoming time, however, the major part of the remodeling w a s finished, a n d with the arrival of our house director, Mrs. leannette Boeskool, the house took on a distinctly livable crir. Activities for the fraternity a s a whole b e g a n with rush meetings which culminated in a very successful rush party at the Country Club. Twenty-eight n e w m e m b e r s were formally initiated into the fraternity on January 7, 1951. We h a v e lost several m e m b e r s to the a r m e d forces. The fraternity led chapel on October 19th with very favorable comment from all sides. In intramural games, the Arcadians placed first of the fraternities in touch football a n d their record in basketball at the time of writing is very good. Homecoming activities this year, besides the usual float a n d house decorations/ consisted of a Homecoming Breakfast, held at the Tulip Restaurant for the alumni a n d members, a n d a highly successful open house, at which time the house w a s officially o p e n e d for inspection. The acP a g e O n e H u n d r e d Twenty-Six

tivities for the first semester concluded with a formal party held at the Pantlind Hotel in G r a n d Rapids. The first semester's activities were undertaken under the inspiring leadership of our president, W. Hoekenga. Ably assisting him were B. Yurash as vice president; H. Parsons a s secretary; D. Kooiman a s treasurer; B. Moolenaar a n d B. O'Donnell as sergeants-at-arms; D. Hoffman a s Student Council Representative for the year; D. De Young a n d G. Bont a s Inter-fraternity Council representatives; a n d G. Bont a s House Board President. At the Formal party held on the evening of January 26, 1951, the n a m e s of the new officers for the second semester were officially announced. J. Hakken w a s elected president; B. Yurash w a s re-elected vice president; K. Van Wyk, secretary; B. O'Donnell, treasurer; B. Benson a n d D. Howard, sergeants-atarms; D. DeYoung a n d J. Hascup, Inter-Fraternity Council Representatives; a n d G. Bont w a s re-elected House Board President. The World Adventure Series, with proceeds going to CARE, is a g a i n being undertaken this year under the a b l e leadership of a l u m n u s D. Veltman, with the assistance of members of the fraternity. The fraternity is energetically preparing to take part in the All-College Sing a n d in this year's Penny Carnival. All in all, the y e a r h a s b e e n characterized by vigor, enthusiasm, a n d interest.

Cosmopolitan The members of the Cosmopolitan Fraternity h a v e initiated a n e w e r a in the fellowship of Phi K a p p a Alpha. The society representing friendship, truth a n d progress, b e g a n the school y e a r with their acceptance of a n e w fraternity home from Hope College. With the acguiring of Mrs. Elizabeth Den Herder a s house mother, the fraternity commenced living a n d meeting at the house, located on the corner of 11th street a n d Maple Ave. Rushing s e a s o n a n d election of new officers were first on the a g e n d a . Corwin Otte w a s assigned the position of preparing a rushing schedule to impress the n e w freshmen a n d to win them over to everlasting Cosmopolitan brotherhood. A successful rushing season w a s concluded with the formal initiation of 27 n e w members. The election of officers a g a i n s a w such brilliant men a s Albert Boers, President; Corwin Otte, Vice President; Roger Visser, Secretary, a n d Douglas Lemmen, Treasurer, a s c e n d to the thrones of power. Professor Kenneth Weller w a s elected faculty advisor to the fraternity. As the y e a r moved along, interfraternity football, golf a n d tennis b e c a m e the interests. The Cosmos played brilliant golf to a s s u m e top honors a m o n g the fraternities. Homecoming, with all the tenseness of events, brought the Phi K a p p a Alpha fraternity to another skien of victories. They captured first place trophies P a g e O n e H u n d r e d Twenty-Eight

in the float contest a n d the newly formed housedecorations contest. During the week end the fraternity held open house for all its members, alumni a n d friends of the society. On Saturday evening, following the Homecoming game, a party honoring the alumni w a s presented in the Tulip Room of the W a r m Friend Tavern. After the Thanksgiving recess, the society resumed activities with interfraternity basketball. On the evening prior to Christmas vacation the Cosmos undertook to s e r e n a d e the women of the campus, journeying from one dormitory to the other singing carols. The January 5th meeting s a w the fraternity eagerly a w a i t i n g the activities of the new y e a r . The new election of officers presented the members of the fraternity with such notable personages a s David Karsten wielding the gavel, Robert Stoppels his second in command, Gail Van Zyl a s the notetaker a n d William Laing a s g u a r d i a n of funds. The climax of winter activities w a s the arrival of the long anticipated winter formal. Jack Boeskool a n d his committee g a v e members a n d their guests a serene evening of pleasure under the theme of "Moonlight Sonata." The event took place in the gorgeous atmosphere of the Kent State Room of the Pantlind Hotel in Grand Rapids. It marked just another achievement in the glorious record of Phi K a p p a Alpha.

Emersonian After a g a y summer which w a s unfortunately prolonged by e a g e r anticipation for the a c a d e m i c y e a r to resume, the men of Emersonian b a d e fond farewells to friends, relatives a n d draft boards, a n d a s early a s the first week in September b e g a n converging on the palatial Emmie House. Life w a s carefree a n d loose (figuratively) until House M a n a g e r Bob ("Uncle Joe") Henninges a n d his smiling b o a r d of satellites arrived. Of course, our w a y of life remained essentially the same; Uncle Joe's list of regulations w a s designed to provide more of a challenge than a change. The fall rushing season b e g a n quickly (and effectively) with the publication of that stirring historical document "Emersonian" (this unique title chosen from submitted list of thousands). The major events of the season were the sensational stag smoker and, a week later, the Emmie Barn Dance which featured a Broad way-calibre performance of the De W a a r d Hager stage smash, "Spamlet, the G. I. Hamlet." (Note: apologies to VFW for the s m a s h e d stage.) Homecoming w a s singularly e n j o y a b l e this year, with several Emersonians, chiefly Guy Vander Jagt,. Ray Zwemer, Howie Vanden Berge, a n d some hedonist with a b a b y - b l u e Buick convertible filling important roles. Shortly thereafter, two Emersonians, G u y Vander Jagt a n d Don Prentice, took first P a g e O n e H u n d r e d Thirty

a n d second places respectively in the Raven Oratorical Contest, a n d both continued on to even wider elocutionary success during the remainder of the year. The a n n u a l Emmie Ail-Night Christmas party w a s its usual violent success, although by 6:00 A.M. a few of us were dragging. But George! w e got a lot of studying done that night. The culminating event of our winter social season w a s the Emersonian Formal Party, "Fantasy in Frost," which occurred at Grand Rapids' far-famed Morton House. Bob Van Dyke served a s general chairman of the affair a n d A1 Jones (now serving with the navy) a s master of ceremonies. Again, in flagrant defiance of fate a n d better judgment, the casual comedy team of DeWaard a n d Hager, with the help of Geoffrey, w a s called upon to present its usual tragic performance. Fortunately, the talents of the Frozen Four (Finlaw, Erickson, Feenstra, a n d Vander Meer), mimic Bob Henninges, lyric tenor Bernie Plomp, a n d a c e accordionist Jim Loch justified the attempt. The b a n d w a s smooth, the evening beautiful, the party perfect. At the time of this writing, spring-time activities belong to the realm of the n e a r future, but on the basis of past history a n d future indications, it is safe to presume that it has b e e n George.

Fraternal As the one hundredth e n d seventeenth y e a r d r a w s to a close in the history of the Fraternal Society the sun of the Fraternal crest continues to ascend. The oldest fraternity on Hope's c a m p u s a n d the sixth oldest Greek letter fraternity in the United States proudly took its place of honor in the activities ot the college year. The hallowed halls of the Fraternal House were a g a i n occupied by the men of Omicron K a p p a Epsilon. Guided by the Frater theme, "Few a n d Chosen," twenty n e w members were initiated into the Fraternal ranks. First semester officers were William Hinga, Glen Blocker, Charles Wissink, a n d Robert Hartley. Fraternal continued to select men who a r e potential leaders of the American a n d World society of tomorrow. Homecoming w a s a g a l a event for the active Fraters, pledges, a n d alumni. Over a hundred a n d twenty-five Fraternal alumni a t t e n d e d the receptions a n d parties of the week end. . . . a n example of the ever-living fraternal brotherhood of the men of O. K. E. After seven years the light of O. K. E. w a s lit over the beloved home a s a welome b e a c o n to alumni a n d friends. The. highlight of the winter social season w a s the a n n u a l Winter Formal held in the Grand Ball Room of the Pantlind Hotel. Numerous parties, joint meetings, a n d s e r e n a d e s contributed more activity to the social calendar. As usual. Fraternal exhibited leadership in athletic activities. Second semester, guided by Gene Campbell, John Van Eenenaam, Robert Bos, a n d Robert Hartley, w^as o p e n e d by the a n n u a l Washington Day Alumni Stag. Again the close association b e t w e e n the alumni a n d active chapter w a s shown. The Fraters were ably directed in the All-College Sing by John Van Eenenaam. The Fraters m a r c h e d into the battle singing "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." Joint meetings were held with the Delphis, Sorosites, a n d Emersonians. The outstanding theatrical production of the y e a r on Hope's c a m p u s w a s the seventh a n n u a l Frater rrolics which played to large, enthusiastic a u d i e n c e s for three evenings. Amid the laughter of beautiful women, impressive surroundings, a n d Fraternal goodwill, the Fraters brought the y e a r to a close with the Fraternal Spring Party. In the circle of brotherhood the Fraternal men bid farewell to another y e a r at their Swan Song. In the parting words of the men of O. K. E. could be. h e a r d the repeated echoes of world strife, tension, a n d personal insecurity a s to the future. The world crisis makes the future a n uncertain one for college men the world over, but it can b e assured that the rising sun of the Fraternal crest will a l w a y s b e in the minds of the men of Fraternal wherever they m a y b e a n d that "Love, Friendship a n d Truth" will a l w a y s b e their motto.

Knickerbocker Another successful y e a r w a s d r a w n to a close during which the three sides of the Knickerbocker Triangle, Social, Moral, a n d Intellectual still prevailed. Long lingering in the minds of loyal Knicks will b e the traditional serenades. Homecoming events, parties, d a t e nights a n d h a y rides. There w a s even more spirit this y e a r d u e to the fact that w e returned to our fraternity houses. No one will ever forget Mrs. K. a n d the wonderful s p r e a d s she served. The y e a r o p e n e d with a busy rushing period during which prospective pledges were invited to stag nights, h a y rides a n d enjoyed good fellowship. Homecoming followed soon after a n d with the houses reopened on campus, the rivalry b e t w e e n the fraternities w a s stronger than ever before. The Knicks more than held their own in interfraternity competition. In softball the Knicks remained favorites to repeat their pennant winning performances of 1949 a n d 1950. They exhibited t h a t . "do or die" spirit in football, basketball a n d track. In the All College sing, the Knicks g a v e their all a n d w e r e richly r e w a r d e d for their efforts. Highlighting the Knickerbocker social calendar P a g e O n e H u n d r e d Thirty-Four

were the two parties. The winter formal, which w a s held in G r a n d Rapids' Morton House, h a d a s its theme "Stairway to the Stars." Both Knicks a n d their d a t e s were unanimous in saying that this w a s one of the best parties that the fraternity h a d ever held. In early spring Knicks a n d dates a g a i n enjoyed Knickerbocker hospitality at the a n n u a l informal party. Eleftherios Sfachtos, a Greek w a r orphan, better known to the Knicks a s "Butch," w a s once more supported by the fraternity. It is the hope of all the Knicks that this boy will b e a b l e to enroll at Hope College some day. A few loyal Knickerbockers a n s w e r e d their country's call to arms, leaving their studies till the conflict is over. This, plus the fact that many valuable men who h a v e enriched the fraternity graduated, left the ranks rather depleted. A worthy g r o u p of neophytes, however, have b e e n a d d e d a n d these men quickly a d o p t e d the spirit of Knickerbocker. With the addition of these n e w men, all of whom prove worthy assets, w e shall reach greater heights than ever before a s all men rally a r o u n d the Banner of Knickerbocker.

After losing seven regulars including five allMIAA selections from the 1949 s q u a d coach A1 Vanderbush proceeded to mold a fine football machine for Hope College from comparatively inexperienced material. Because of a bit of hard luck throughout the season Hope's 1950 eleven placed third in the l e a g u e standings, but a tie with Alma's championship s q u a d proved the true caliber of the Dutchmen. In the initial g a m e of the 1950 season Hope met u p with a strong Michigan Normal aggregation a n d tasted defeat in the opening g a m e 19 to 6. Then for the first time in Hope College athletic history football team traveled to Waukesha, Wisconsin to meet Carroll College. Led by all-MIAA halfback Ron Appledorn the Dutch showed their powerful running g a m e to the Scots b y scoring a 37 to 26 victory which included runs of 67 a n d 17 yards by Ron Appledorn a n d a 30 y a r d jaunt by fullback Tom Van Wingen. Kalamazoo College w a s host to Hope College for the opening league contest in which the Dutch ran into a driving rain, some tough luck a n d consequently a 21-20 defeat at the h a n d s of the Hornets. Ron Appledorn's brilliant 80 y a r d touchdown scamper a g a i n highlighted the game. Alma's M1AA champs next came to town a n d in a g a m e

highlighted by defensive play especially on the part of Hope's 210 pound tackle Gene Nynhuis a n d a c e defensive end Jack Vander Velde, the Scots fought to a 7-7 deadlock with the Dutch. Grand Rapids J. C. g a v e Hope their second win of the y e a r in a non-conference g a m e by the lop sided score of 39 to 7. Hope racked u p their third win the following week when they downed the Adrian Bulldogs by a 39 to 6 count. Traveling next to Hillsdale to meet the supposedly strong defending MIAA champs, the Vanderbush eleven m a d e it 3 in a row by stunning the Dales 14 to 7 in which the whole s q u a d turned in a fine performance. The following week found the Britons from Albion opposing the Dutch in the final g a m e of the season a n d probably the only poor g a m e of the year for the Dutch in which the Albion backs ran wild to pile u p a 26-12 margin of victory over Hope a n d consequently leaving the Dutch in a tie for third place. The season which ended with 5 wins a n d 3 losses for Hope produced a number of stars from the roster including Captain Gene Campbell, allMIAA linemen Lloyd Beekman, Gene Nynhuis a n d lack Vander Velde a n d also backs Ron Appledorn a n d Tom Van Wingen.

A few of the mainstays on the club this year included Jesse King, Norm Schuiling, Rod Broersma, a n d Tim Beerthuis. Two of the lads who started the season with the freshman team showed much promise a n d were a d v a n c e d to the varsity. They were Bob Visser a n d Dave Kempker.

After participating in two large indoor track meets coaches Russ De Vette a n d Lars G r a n b e r g h a v e set out to raise Hope one more notch in the MIAA standings. Although there is a definite lack of depth a n d b a l a n c e especially in the sprints a n d hurdles, some outstanding performers a p p e a r in top shape. Wally Vander Meulen's b r o a d - j u m p i n g which won second place in the MIAA along with the high-jumping of Herb W a g e m a k e r a n d Carl Van Farowe a n d the Javelin throwing of Clayt Borgman give the thinclads strength in the field events. In the track events only Bob Roos in the distances seems sure of points.
