"They say that life is a highway and its milestones are the years . . â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Joyce Kilmer

"The past is stone, and stands forever fast Eugene Lee Hamilton

y \

The morning was bright and ho pish, and I shall never forget it. Came the greenied days in anticipation with pots and things. The lines never stop or go but we are here and that counts. Long nights dykstraining and creeping out of caves: Leave a stone . . .

The maples shook and threw their red fingers in my face and I laughed. I stopped and listened. It was coolish late and the message was Bach. The snoiv-stars twinkled and squealed when I walked. "Dark limbs clutched an ice-moon', craving green. I saw my shadoiv on the wall, but I knew I was really not that big.

Leave more stones: The sun set into the lake, and with red and blue quietness all around I jumped from the dune with the grains in my mouth and ears while the wind whistled by because it was spring.

Leading and following with more stones Four times we pulled with Breugehlian splendor, and we sang, too. Stones and miles of them, marking the way and the words. For I'll forget the testing and the teacups, but inside goes the learning how to learn and the hoping how to hope.

A speck of the variety of human experience gets lodged and we wonder and wonder and wonder

. . .

And who can say that it never really happened? Late times over deepness or tears with friends who will last longer than time can suppose, a slaterish stomach and the jokes about it, sleepy eyes watching colors change as the sun comes past the eight a.m. stained glass, kletzian warmth in rich browns . . .

Build with milestones a place to exist, for a somethingness is godding through us. A hundred years past and mine now a part yet apart . . .

The campus came alive with cries of "Pot, Frosh," hailing the beginning of freshman orientation. For the 495 Freshmen, the first few days were filled with placement exams, library tours, counseling sessions, discussion groups, and receptions. Some faced housing problems, as an all-time high enrollment forced girls to triple up in Phelps and others to live in cottages without sufficient furniture. With the aid of 50 faculty advisors and 100 student advisors the Freshman Class faced and overcame a m a j o r obstacleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the schedule. They soon became familiar with terms such as honor points, credit hour, and grade point average. At the Monday night mixer, the frosh received their "pots" and were taught the proper way to show subservience to superiors. Although the wearing of the green was less prominent this year, the newly-formed class of '70 united against the class of '69 at water fights and at the Frosh-Soph Beach Party. Climaxing the week-long rivalry was Kangaroo Court which brought forward the most daring criminals in the Freshman Class. After the appropriate punishments were meted out amidst water balloons, both classes united to sing the Alma Mater, and the Class of '70 was welcomed to the Hope College Community.

R o g i s t r s i t i o r i C o n v o o s t t i o n Again the familiar lines formed and general confusion was evident as 1,837 students from 38 states and 20 foreign countries registered for the fall '66 semester. CHECK YOUR PACKET (Don't bend the cards. Handle at top corners.) It should contain a yellow card, 3 pink or brown cards, 3 green or blue cards, and the blue Hope College information card. . , . And thus, through the wonders of automation, you were registered easily and efficiently with only a two hour wait in line and 3 schedule changes. The first academic year of Hope's second century was formally opened at the 105th Convocation. Dr. I. John Hesselink, Professor of the History of Doctrine and Ecclesiastical Latin at Tokyo Theological Seminary, spoke on the "Quest for Authenticity". Dr. Hesselink, who had just completed his second term of missionary service in Japan, challenged the students to expose themselves to the ultimate truth, for a commitment to truth is necessary in the search for authenticity. And then the classes began. . . .

Campus Evangelismâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;What is it? Two hundred students gathered for a week-end of discussion September 23-25 to find out. Too many people have rejected evangelism on the grounds that they resent being beaten over the head with salvation. Evangelism needs defining perhaps. As stated by Chaplain Hillegonds it begins with an intelligent, mature concern for others. Several speakers from organizations including Young Life and Y.M.C.A. explained how they felt evangelism should be carried out on a college campus. The retreat concluded with a panel dis iscussion designed to promote questions in the minds of the participants.

There was something both exhausting and restful about wind, waves, and white sand.

Highior Horizons Ror VoLJngstors On almost any day during the school year, Hope students involved in Higher Horizons may be seen with the elementary and junior high children to whom they relate on a one-to-one basis, giving at least an hour each week to this friendship. Activities are geared to provide opportunities for the development of selfexpression, self-realization, and growth. Together they walk and talk, bowl, or go to a concert, assemble a model, ride bikes, cook or sew. The full time director of the program, Mr. Bruce Struik, advises almost 300 students involved in the volunteer program, and he has initiated many new and beneficial activities this year. Parents, school authorities, and townspeople have supported Higher Horizons enthusiastically, recognizing its worth in the lives of those involved, and its value in meeting a need in the community. Through culturally and academically enriching activities, the child can learn values and skills; college students also learn much as they enjoy these friendships. Jfith a little coaching from Ted Johnson and other Higher Horizon advisers, these Holland boys built a model road racing track.

Christine Hansen says, "Sift together one cup cup of flour", to her Higher Horizons friend.

They make a special effort to get to know well everyone who is under their charge. In this way they can be the one to whom a new student or any student may come with questions or problems about dorm life or college life in general. Many times, general gab sessions with R.A.'s yield a growth in wisdom and close friendship. As experienced, responsible upperclassmen, R.A.'s are guardians of dorm and college rules and are directly responsible for their enforcement. F R O N T R O W : J. Sutherland (Zwemer) ; D.

Student Senate is the organization through which students may voice their opinions, suggestions and criticisms of school policy and activities. It is an elected, representative body which draws its members from all classes to get a true cross-section of student sentiment. This year's Senate wrestled with such controversial issues as compulsory chapel and women's rules. This body also planned many of the cultural affairs and other social activities. Student Court, made up of juniors and seniors, is selected by the Senate to serve as the disciplinary board. It hears cases of rule violations and is careful to decide each case for the mutual good of the student and the college.

The Interfraternity Council and the Pan-Hellenic Board are the governing bodies for Hope's Greek societies. Two representatives from each fraternity made up IFC this year. They set the dates for frat rush activities, devised the rules concerning rush and pledging, and when necessary, saw that these rules were followed. The Pan-Hellenic Board drew three members from each sorority. Early in the year, fall and spring rush rules were revised. Allowance was made for an increase in sorority membership. Together, IFC and PanHel made plans for future Greek Activities.

Sleepless, John Windover continued 48 hours in the radio marathon.

Radio station WTAS got off to a slow start during the fall because of technical breakdowns. However, hard work and creative ideas, coupled with appropriate expenditures, corrected this situation. By March air time averaged sixty hours a week. P r o g r a m m i n g included classical, pop-standard, contemporary music, campus and national news, and special events coverage. At the end of the year during i weekend of marathon broadcasting, WTAS D.J., John Windover, managed to stay awake and continue programming for 48 hours, a new national collegiate record!

Hope's Debate Squad took on the national debate question: "Resolved: that the United States should substantiate Red foreign policy commitments." Debaters traveled to the national convention of debaters at Peoria, and also debated at Goshen, Indiana, Lansing, and Purdue. They attended the Pi Kappa Delta Convention at Whitewater, Wisconsin. Debating gives students a fine opportunity to improve their public speaking skills, as well as clarify and formulate their opinions on pertinent public issues.

Hyper-active has become a synonym for the Student Church in its first year of existence at Hope. Since its conception in the spring of 1966 on a trial basis, the Student Church has grown to be one of the leading organizations on campus. One of the greatest tasks of any church is to challenge its members. This the Student Church has tried to do under the leadership of its student board of trustees. The Student Church presented the student body with much more than a Sunday service; it provided opportunities for discussion and dialogue with outside speakers, faculty, and other students; opportunities to see the challenge of the church s task in places like Harlem and Appalachia on spring vacation trips; opportunities to work and give help in a wide range of areas. The Student Church is the one organization where anyone who wishes to give of himself can participate.

New York theater designers in costume, lighting, and sets were invited to Hope's campus. Miss Sarah Gift, a professor at United Scenic Artists, helped design costumes for "Queen After Death". Their beauty and lavishness were stunning. Richard Bianci and Richard Casler were lighting and set designers respectively. Each of these people taught a seminar in his own field. James Bridie's "What Say T h e y ? " was the Little Theater's November production. Life in a Scottish University was set against an Old Testament scheme. A literary drama of little actual action was "Queen After Death" by Henry De Motherlant. Alan Jones performance as King Ferrante was the strongest of any in the, primarily literary, drama. The studentdirected Greek satire, " T h e Clouds" was presented in the Castle Park outdoor amphitheater in May. The satirical burlesque by Aristophanes, directed by Mike Vogas, dramatized the new morality and the immoral logic taught by the younger Greek generation. This year's Little Theater activity seemed to leave room for enlargement and improvement during next year s season of drama.

Seen in "Queen After Death", in lavish professional costumes, were Alan Jones, Jeff Lambkin, Dave Crothers, and Dennis Jonqs. The King's advisers asked for the death of Dona Inez, his daughter-in-law.

Bonnie Tompkins, as Immoral Logic, told Pheideppedes, (Mike Vogas) how much of the art she can teach him, if he will only come to study at the "Thinkery". Sokrates (Frank Hine) looked on longingly.

The fifty-nine members of the Hope College Chapel Choir had a busy and successful year. Members could often be seen carrying their bright-colored robes to 8 a.m. Chapel. Besides singing at Chapel, the Choir contributed its music at Convocation, Student Church services, the Christmas Vespers concert, Baccalaureate, and a Tulip Time Concert. At Tulip Time, the audience was thrilled to hear the program which the Choir had learned well on its spring tour through the West. Concerts were held in Phoenix, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sacramento, and elsewhere. The Choir members got in some sight-seeing at Disneyland and Marineland, and generally had a great time together. ^ During the summer of 1967, the Chapel Choir will make its first European concert tour. The five-week tour will take them to Italy, Austria, the Netherlands, and other countries. The Chapel Choir is becoming more and more well-known nationally and now internationally for its magnificent performances of sacred music.

its repertoire

The Motet Choir specializes in the a cappella madrigals and motets of the 16th and 17th Centuries. The Choir's repertoire includes Dutch folksongs, hymns of the early American colonies and Southland, Christmas carols of many countries, and other sacred and secular literature from the 16th to 20th Centuries. Motet Choir is essentially a non-touring group, made up of approximately twenty members. Under the direction of Mr. James Tallis, the Choir has made local appearances in Grand Rapids, Zeeland, Grandville, and at special activities on campus and in the Holland area. Highlights of the year included a concert of sacred anthems of the church year given in Dimnent Chapel, and appearances at Trinity College and Shimer College.

Two weekly practices of the College Chorus produce a rich sound from more than one hundred voices. Nightly rehearsals precede an important performance such as the Christmas Vespers Concert and the spring concert. The "Magnificat" by Antonio Vivaldi was the Choir's selected piece for Vespers. Maurice Durufle's "Requiem" was sung in Latin in the spring. The College Chorus occasionally contributed their musical offerings in morning Chapel and in Student Church services. Although this Chorus is often considered a stepping stone to the Hope College CITapel Choir, it is also in itself a musical outlet for those who ^njoy singing.

Concert IVlusicians-Xhe Hope College Band and Orohestra The Orchestra, under the direction of Morrette Rider, was busy working on several concerts this year. During the fall, they presented a joint concert with the Band. During the Christmas season, a concert was presented which featured the violin virtuoso, Mischa Mischakoff, who, at 70, is the concertmaster of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. A selected orchestra accompanied the college choirs at the Christmas Vesper service. They also provided the background music for "Down in the Valley", the opera presented during 1 ulip I ime for students and town visitors. Next year, the Orchestra will be directed by Mr. Ritsema, who will fill in while Dr. Rider uses next year for postgiaduate work. The Orchestra will continue to give musically-inclined students the opportunity to channel their abilities into enjoyable, worthwhile activity.

The Hope College Band is an organization on the move. Under the direction of Robert Cecil, the Band opened the season with the delightful Kletz Concert at Homecoming. This is perhaps one of the most difficult feats for a band— to play well without any directing or even some misdirecting. But the Band succeeded. The Band contributed its part at football and basketball games, and presented several concerts throughout the year. An attempt was made to show versatility by means of the pieces performed. The Band helps to create an interest for the fine art of music on this campus, and enthusiasm continues to grow.

Hope's Symphonette Went East for Spring "Tour This year the Symphonette worked industriously under the direction of Dr. Morrette Rider for the Eastern tour. They visited such cities as Washington, D.C., New York City, Philadelphia, Rochester, and Hastings-on-Hudson, and performed for many gracious audiences. Unfortunately, this was the last tour to be directed by Dr. Rider until 1969 after his leave of absence. On the program for the tour were many numbers, including one of the Symphonette's favorites The Toy Symphony." Floyd Farmer performed vocally; Dave Tubergen was the violin solist; and Dr. Kooiker, the piano soloist. The Symphonette is a small group which works closely to produce its own special sound for their own and others' enjoyment.

MEMBERS: VIOLIN: Dave Tubergen; Ellen Kulp; Frank Leese; Sue Bosman; Glenys Davidson; Ruth Oosterhof; Margo Hakken. VIOLA: Fred Schutmaat; Steve Weiden; Lynda Brown.

The Fellowship of Christian Athletes is a nation-wide, non-denominational organization whose purpose it is to confront athletes, coaches, and, through them, young people, with the challenge and adventures of following Christ in the fellowship of the Church. This year, FCA prepared and sold programs at football and basketball games. The money received will send members to an FCA summer conference. FCA also opened Lincoln School gym for two nights of the week, and joined with local youngsters in athletic activities.

W.A.A. The Women's Athletic Association provides an opportunity for recreation and relaxation for Hope's women. Any girl may participate in the bi-weekly events of archery, basketball, field hockey, softball, tennis, swimming and more. Besides having fun with their classmates, WAA girls gain a new appreciation for physical activity, feel more a part of Hope, and lose that weak, tired-blood feeling.

Having been awarded an All-American rating for its work last year, the ANCHOR, under editor John Mulder, threw itself into the thick of campus life. The housing situation, the chapel controversy, control of student publications, administrative continuity, and the effectiveness of student government were only a few of the issues on w hich the ANCHOR spoke.

Tlie seven people in the above picture are eating bananas, because they have to build up their strength in order to put out the OPUS. Those monthly issues, containing all students' contributions in prose, poetry, art, and photography, were a m a j o r undertaking. There were some meetings at which the students discussed their work with members of the OPUS Board. They needed a lot of bananas for those. The final issue with its op art cover, was the goal toward which those banana-eaters worked. Here the Board offers a banana toast to the garbage can, the symbol of OPUS this year. Next year, with a revised constitution and more bananas, there might be two garbage cans.

A Note from thie Editor: "Gone, gone forever!—like a rushing wave Another year has burst upon the shore of earthly being—and its last low tones. Wandering in broken accents in the air, Are dying to an echo." —George D. Prentice

Our nation, our college and our personal lives are at crossroads. We can feel this more and more each day as wars flare up on all sides of the globe; as college policies are re-examined; and as we ourselves face the dilemma of which career to work toward, or whether or not "he" is the one for "me". Today, in the mid-1960 , s, traditional ideas about nearly every phase of existence are being remodeled or scrapped for the sake of convenience, efficiency, "progress" and, perhaps, even for the sake of newness itself. Is the MILESTONE, as a yearbook, also at crossroads? Vast advances in yearbook publishing have opened up new vistas of exciting and different effects. With better services, facilities, and photography, great strides can be made by individual yearbook staffs. In this, the 50th edition of the MILESTONE, attempts have been made to treat the traditional contents of the yearbook in a new way. All the components were carefully selected and colored with one theme—the milestone marking the transition of past to future, and these combining in the present. The bold cover departs from everything Hope has ever seen on its yearbooks. Even the type styles chosen combine tradition and modernity. A long-used style. Cloister Bold, was chosen for the division pages. The clean, modern Excello Bold was used throughout for headlines. Other elements add to the theme, also. Students and faculty see a yearbook only once —as a published, covered book. Its single appearance often diminishes the fact that one full year of work preceded that ultimate debut. It has been a long, nerve-wracking year indeed, but well worth it as 1 present to you MILESTONE 1967. Watch closely as you review 196/ In this MILE TONE. I hope it piques your mind, as well as your memory. -—Barbara Fugazzotto

To meet this crying need. Mom and Dad's Weekend was ordained by the Student Senate to give parents an idea of what this place called Hope is all about. On Friday, October 28, the first event of the weekend was held. Three Hope professors discussed various aspects of college life from their own points of view. Saturday morning was filled with facultyparent conferences.Here Mom and Dad could meet that special, perhaps philosophy?, prof they'd heard so much about. That afternoon, a crisp and golden day, the Flying Dutchmen shone as well, beating Kalamazoo 48-29 in one of the most exciting games of the season. A show entitled "The Various Sounds of Hope", the final event of the weekend, was presented Saturday night. The program was a combination of vocal and instrumental music, theater, and selected readings. As parents left after this beautiful and Trappy weekend, everyone hoped that each parent had found at Hope that which they were seeking hereâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; and that they at last understood why it was that we always need food and money!

A Japanese Culture theme was selected this year for the Fine Arts Festival. Court and folk dances were demonstrated to an enchanted audience. The fine arts of flower arranging and brush painting were features of an evening of Japanese culture. A full Noh Dramaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;an ancient religious drama â&#x20AC;&#x201D;was presented by Tokyo's Hosho School of Noh. Movies, folk dances, and music combined with lectures to fill a busy program of events.

With the cooperation of the Holland Jaycees, Hope's Student Senate organized aur enriched and exciting Cultural Affairs program this year. A sparkling array of talent and learning was arranged to entertain, educate, and enlighten the college and local communities. A Japanese Fine Arts Festival was complemented by way out notes of progressive jazz, the "doobie-doobie-doo-bop" of the unusual Swingle Singers, the professional night cluh entertaining "Four Preps", and many, many speakers and lecturers from the pungent Drew Pearson to John Cage and his electronic music. The Cultural Affairs program gave students and faculty a look at U.S.Viet Nam policy and an understanding of C.O.R.E.'s stand on race problems. Faculty recitals and Mortar Board films further enlivened a rich program. Outstanding improvements over the last two years' programs and efforts at further improvement promise an even better program for 1967-1968.

"Way out" and "Gone" was the Dave Brubeck Quartet as they settled close to earth for Hope students in a Progressive Jazz concert. There are probably few Hope students among avid Progressive Jazz fans, but no one could doubt the talent displayed by this Quartet. Brubeck s training at JuHard is reflected in his mastery of a sort of "abstract" music, consisting of progressions, modulations, and unbelievable rhythms. An obscure bass solo, an exhausting drum solo, and the concluding number, "Take Five", completed a stimulating and truly fascinating

You see. Snow Carnival had always melted into a preview of showery April. This year was no different in the hearts of men. They still said, "Winter Carnival, uh-huh, sure," in disbelief. Then the miracle happened. Winter stood fast for the Snow Carnival. On Friday the Yukon team of Emmies skidded to victory in the dog sled races, followed by the other fraternal orders of "dogs." That evening a hootenany was held, followed by a dance. Saturday morning was snow sculptures, featuring a wide variety of artistic accomplishments—from Thinkers to Turtles, from Sphinxes to Snoopy and Moby Dick. After all was said and done—or melted away at least —the only change on campus was seen in a slight change of attitude. Now when people mention the Snow Carnival for next year, you may hear them say, Snow Carnival. uh-huh, . . . maybe."

A' A Cold Day for IVIety Day

The day was dismal and cold, but hopeful students welcomed spring anyway in the annual May Day activities. Presentation of Court and Queen and the tapping of Mortar Board members were the only features of the ceremony this year, besides the athletic events. The dismal weather was a reflection of students' spirit over the absence of the "delightful and enchanting" May Pole dance, the usual contribution of sophomore girls. No twinkletoed girls cavorted around the Pole which did appear in the Pine Grove for old times' sake. But freshman and junior escorts witnessed the crowning of Queen Sue Albers and the other honors of the day. As students left the Pine Grove, they still wondered, however, how far off spring lingered. It certainly didn't appear that day!

On the afternoon of October 14, the familiar sounds of "heave, rock," and "lock-in" echoed over the banks of the Black River. The traditional tug of war between the Freshmen and the Sophomores began excitingly enough, but it was not long before the experienced sophs hauled their opponents into the agony of defeat, in what turned out to be one of the shortest pulls in this event's history. The Pull tradition began in 1898 and has developed into one of the most spirited rivalries one will find, on a college campus. The Pull has grown into much more than simply a contest. It gives the frosh the opportunity to show their spirit and let the upperclassmen know that they have what it takes! Winning the Pull is not the most important thing. It is the spirit and determination behind it. The meeting of the two classes in the middle of the river is really thrilling. The spirit and unity this even breeds has spread far and wide. This year Sports Illustrated gave it full coverage.

Girls Compote Comparing Nykerk today as it was in the past, will reveal a marked contrast. The competition began as a rough 'n' tough football game between the coeds of the Freshmen and Sophomore- classes, when the gals huddled around their upperclass coaches, learning pass patterns, offensive blocking and offtackle runs. Then the administration decided that its coeds should be directed toward more feminine activities. The result was the format which Hope now employs: the dramatic performance, the oration, and the song. "Tense" was the word for the night. The two classes were seated opposite each other, watching every move, listening very carefully, and whispering quietly to each other. The competition was close. As each class presented their selections, the tension grew. Finally, after some delay, the decision was made. A chill went through the competitors, hand clutched hand, eyes closed, little prayers were said. The winners: the Freshman Class!!

After two close losses to Adrian and league champion Albion, and two easy victories over Olivet and Alma, the turning point of the season came. Hope squeaked by Calvin by a score of 28-29.

The Hope Kickers completed their second year of varsity competition with much practical knowledge and valuable experience gained, while sustaining numerous losses. For the first time since its inception three years ago, the soccer team found itself in league competition. Several of the teams in the highly-competitive Michigan-Indiana-Illinois Soccer Conference are consistent powerhouses. In recent years they have proven themselves to be soccer standouts among the nation s small colleges. Unfortunately for Hope's hooters, this consistency of the other teams, in the form of timeliness, endurance, and experience, could not be easily contained or matched, and statistically, the Dutchmen wound up winless against five league losses. The team's greatest thrill during the frustrating season was a non-league victory over Calvin in a double overtime, 4-3. Another highlight came when senior halfback, Cornelius Agori-lwe, was named to the M.I.I, all-conference second team. Next year's more seasoned team will consist of nine returning lettermen, who will form the nucleus of a potentially stronger squad. Team talent coupled with spirit and enthusiasm could mean a successful campaign.

Gridiron Aotion A season's success is poorly measured by the figures in a record book. This year's record of three wins and four losses for the "Flying Dutchmen" poorly reflects the season of hard-fought losses and important victories. This fall saw the Dutch defeat strong Wheaton and Kazoo teams and upset the M.I.A.A. champions from Albion at Homecoming. All M.I.A.A. choices, Ken Carpenter, Keith Abel, and captain Charlie Langeland led a largely inexperienced team in these contests. All excuses aside, the game of football as played at Hope College is played for the great experience it is itself, and so it will continue next year, under coach Russ DeVette.

But, through concentrated effort, the return of Carl Walters, and some memorable performances, the Dutchmen tied with Kalamazoo for the M.l.A.A. Championship.

His plays, patented jump, and constant hustle brought much success to the team. The other co-captain Floyd Brady had an outstanding season.

The high point of the season was the two-time victory over the Calvin Knightsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a feat that hasn't been accomplished for at least the last 12 years. The team finished with a 12-5 M.I.A.A. record, and scored 1,399 points over 1,325 points for their opponents.

The Hope College Flying Dutchmen won the track crown for the second straight year. The key to this season's success was the tremendous determination of the team which resulted in the shattering of six Hope records. Leading the assault on the record books was captain Doug Formsma, who lowered both the mile and the two mile mark to 4:20.1 and 9:32.3 respectively. Steve Reynen and Dave Thomas completed the record running with Steve posting a 1:57 for the half mile and Dave, a 39.1 for the 330 intermediate hurdles. In the field events, Doug Nichols hurled the javelin 196'8", while Bill Bekkering cleared 13'6" in the pole vault.

The spring of the year again brought about the indoor, Carnegie gym baseball practices. Although "Rookie" coach Glenn Van Wieren had a sizable nucleus of veterans with which to work, the losses from the previous year's championship team were expected to be felt. Upon returning from the southern tour, the Hope nine lost two quick games to a strong, non-league Central team, but consecutive league doubleheaders with revenge-deserving Kalamazoo and arch-rival Calvin gave Hope an early 4-0 mark. But the win and tie with Albion together with the split with Alma led to a climatic double-header with "then" league leading Olivet (4-0 vs Hope's 6-1-1). Hope took two, securing the league crown and winning with the best percentage won-loss record Hope has ever had in its history of the League (10-1-1, .910). Individual statistics were quite impressive. As a result, Don Troost, Charlie Langeland, (also most valuable team and league members), Harry Rumohr, Gary Frens, Tom Pelon. and Don Kroodsma were included on the All-Conference Team.

It was a bad year on the links for Hope College. The golf team finished sixth in the league. They managed to beat out Olivet 15-0, but the only other victory for the squad was an 8-7 conquest of GRJC. The team ended up with a 2-7 record. The future looks brighter, however, with the return of all five lettermen and others too.

Once again this year, the Hope College Tennis Team went south and met powerful opposition. Hope's netmen won only two matches, and lost five. Back in the north, the team racked up a 7-1 recordâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;good enough for a league second behind perennial champion Kalamazoo (29 consecutive years). The season was enhanced by frosh-flash, John Schadler's winning 25 matches, losing only 9.

The Student Education Association is an organization designed to give all prospective teachers a deeper look into, and a greater interest in, education as a profession. Its members may also become members of the Michigan Education Association and the National Education Association. During the year, the group had a chance to meet with educators in all fields and at all levels by means of debates, panel discussions, or as guest speakers. Its main aim is to give interested education students the opportunity to understand what education really means. U f M C E R S : M. Enderlin, Pres.; Pres.; W. Cotts.

Affiliated with the National Association of International Relations Clubs, Hope's IRC is concerned with keeping the students informed and involved in international affairs. To this end, it brings authoritative speakers to the campus for banquets and coffee hours. The club regularly sends delegations to national and regional conferences on world affairs. In the IRC library, students can read more than 30 foreign publications that are received regularly. The club provides every incoming foreign student with a student advisor; organizes meetings where the foreign and American students can meet; and does everything it can to promote a cosmopolitan atmosphere at Hope. This part of the program culminates annually at International Night, where students from many nations show songs, dances, stories, and plays from their national culture

Sinfonia The Iota Omega Chapter of P h i Mu Alpha Sinfonia, the national honorary music fraternity, has been growing this year. Under the leadership of seniors David Tuhergen, famous Zither player, and Gregory Hulse, Ukulele expert, the boys have helped in bringing to the Hope Conservatory such popular composers as John Cage and Mel Powell. They have aided in dexterously distributing programs and audiences at most Hope concerts and recitals. Iota Omega has established a scholarship fund for the most qualified student musician, which allows him to have one semester of free applied music lessons. Plans got under way to bring more fine lecturers and performers to the campus next year, and to further strive f o r the goals of Sinfoniaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to promote brotherhood among musicians, and to support and advance musical activity in America.

German Club members tried to learn more about German culture and language in their activities this year. Lectures, plays, outings, parties, and music acquainted members with the atmosphere of Germany, and increased their fluency in the language. Meetings were conducted in German, and the students prepared skits and songs. At Christmas, the wives of the German professors treated the club members to rich German pastries, and all joined together in carols and fellowship.

El Club Esjoanol The Spanish Club this yÂŤ year aimed at better understanding of the Latin American countries. Students who had studied in Latin America presented programs on Colombia and Mexico.

The Nu Beta Chapter of Alpha Phi Omega had an active year of service and socializing. During Freshman Orientation, A-Phi-O's directed wandering Freshmen to the dining hall or the bookstore, and gave them other vital information. At legistration, Freshmen and upperclassmen were aided by A-l hi-0 s in that confusing procedure of filling out IHAI cards. The men served as ushers at Cultural Affairs activities, and helped Student Senate and other groups in various ways. In the fall. Alpha Phi Omega's m a j o r project was the annual Blood Drive. It was not easy, however, to get blood out of 1800 turnips, so Hope lost the intercollegiate competition to Albion. Every drop collected was valuable, however. In April the A-Phi-0 men donated and installed spot lights for Hope's anchor, which this fraternity donated just last \ear. In addition to services rendered to the college community. Alpha Phi Omega men enjoyed themselves at formal and informal social gatherings. Service and brotherhood are their standard.

Dynamic upward growth was the all-pervading principle of Centurian's first year as an active social fraternity. As a result of a driving optimistic spirit, the nine founding brothers saw their group more than triple between September and the end of the spring pledge period. In the Fall, the fledgling fraternity participated in intrafrat tennis and Softball, and chalked up two surprising victories in the latter. Moreover, Homecoming guests were entertained when chanting Centurians pulled the body of Hope's departed century on a rumbling caisson in the parade. Throughout the year, the men of Alpha Theta Chi expanded their activities. They placed high in the scholastic trophy competition; held a spring informal in Saugatuck, and won the Winter Carnival snow sculpturing with their sorority sisters, Kappa Delta Chi. Under the colors of Alpha Theta Chi, strong new personal ties have grown which reflect the fraternity's dedication to individual growth through deep personal and social relationships. Thus Hope's hundredth-year fraternity pauses for a moment in its building program to reflect on a successful first year. The foundations are laid. Now watch it rise!

The men of Omicron Kappa Epsilon started off another very successful year with the winning of the Centennial Homecoming float trophy. The long hours of joint effort were proudly rewarded. The annual alumni stag brought together Fraters of all ages in a true spirit of brotherhood and lasting friendship. Fraters met in Grand Rapids during the winter for their "Hoi Soiree." Besides the weekly literary meetings, two joint meetings with Sigma Sigma were held. The Fraternal Society was also honored in receiving the first annual $500 community service award. At the annual Christmas Party for underprivileged children, Fraters again acted in response to community needs. The fall and spring rush events brought more than 20 new pledges in to the "few and chosen". OKE demonstrated excellence in all intramural sports and achieved championships in football, bowling, softball, volleyball, and took the day for the third consecutive year on May Day. Thus they captured the All-Sports Trophy. One cold spring night, the Frater tribe descended upon the Fine Grove. To the boom of a drum, Frater dates were called forth and given special invitation to the spring informal. Even many non-Fraters gathered to watch and wonder at the half-clad men in the cold air. Fraters frolicked on the stage for the twenty-first time to earn funds for SCSC. Seniors saluted Fraternal at the Swan Song ceremony, and said goodbye to their fraternity of spirit and comradship.

The Knicks opened the 1966-67 school year with a new resident adviser, Dr. David Marker. Immediately the informal social atmosphere of the fraternity was brought out by an all campus Open House Party. After Homecoming, which featured an outstanding float from the Knicks, and a successful banquet for Knick alumni, fall rush came and went with a flurry. Concluding the fall semester was the Informal at the Rathskellar in Saugatuck. The spring semester was looked upon with anticipation and an increasing spirit within the fraternity. Spring rush saw the inauguration of two new parties, the LSD Party and the Subculture Party, in addition to the traditional Gold Rush Party. Knicks were also to be found serving the community and college by aiding in the Muscular Dystrophy Drive, and in the annual Blood Drive. The Knicks became foster fathers of a Chinese orphan. The frat basement was rejuvenated as a result of concerted fraternity effort in raising funds. With the coming of summer and the end of school, the Knicks celebrated with a light informal at Sleepy Hollow. Along with all the fun and work, the men of Knickerbocker maintained their stress upon individuality within the college community and the fraternity itself.

Continuing the high standards of love, honor, and success, the Emersonians began the year with the traditional Homecoming activities and a successful rush. In the winter, Emmies and their dates met at a "Holiday Hideaway" in Benton Harbor. During second semester, hard work by all the Emmies brought the remodeling of the frat basement to near completion. Hardy Emersonians won the Dog Sled Race during the winter Carnival; and serviceminded members helped Higher Horizons on demolition projects. The year ended with formal initiation of fourteen new pledges, and a sunny spring informal at Sleepy Hollow.

Cosmos worked hard at their various service projects.

September 1966 was the start of a very successful year for the men of Cosmopolitan. The sports program had a good start, as Cosmos took a first place in golf. On the varsity level, the men turned out to watch the activities on the soccer and football fields. Socially the men gathered together at the Cascade Country Club in Grand Rapids for a winter formalâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;"The Twelfth Night". Cosmos embarked on an active community service program this year. Cosmos were found painting houses, apartments, and the Holland Red Cross building. After two weeks of varied rush activities, including swim parties, coffee hours, and lit meetings, twenty men accepted Cosmo bids. They enjoyed their new-found brotherhood at a formal initiation dinner and ceremony. W. C. Fields, who appeared in the movie "That Fatal Glass of Beer", made a guest appearance at the Castle Park informal held in the spring.

Every Sorosis meeting resounded with the spirited notes of the Sigma Sigma Song: "Aren't you glad that you're a Sigma S i g m a ? " as Hope's oldest sorority commenced and culminated a most successful year. Sorosites ventured into the festive Centennial year with the winning sorority Homecoming float—"Perk Up Hope—Grind Albion". Pert Sue Alberts represented the sorority on the Homecoming Court. All the traditional fall-winter events such as the fall houseparty, Date Night at the Old Crow, spaghetti dinner with the Vander Werfs, a Christmas Party for underprivileged children, reached a peak in the spring with May Day. Sorosis captured the women's Softball competition trophy for the third consecutive year. It was awarded the academic trophy for its 2.950 scholastic average.

The Dorians invaded the campus this fall with an enthusiasm and cheerfulness that lasted throughout the year. The year began with the traditional houseparty at Tim Buck II. This was followed by the long weeks of preparation for fall rush activities and Homecoming. The sorority's objectives—creating new friendships and a sense of unity through working together— were developed in these two events. The sorority's desire to serve the community was channeled in their aid to a family at Christmas, and their contribution to the Muscular Dystrophy Drive in the Turtle Race. While preparing for fall and spring rush and enjoying homecoming, Dorians took a break to enjoy themselves at their datenight, which featured a scavenger hunt. The Rathskellar was the scene of the Dorian winter informal; The spring informal was held at Tunnel Park beach. The year's activities ended with a joint meeting with the Emersonians, the annual pizza break, and a second houseparty. There they gathered their hopes and spirit for the coming year.

Dr. Calvin Vander Wert has served as President of Hope College since

"The Creative Forces of Youth. . . The Steadying Experience of IVlaturity"

An early American legend tells of an ambitious settler who wanted to found a college which, in his words, was "to stand free and unfettered, bowing to no existing authority, no established tradition." The poor colonist was thwarted before he started, however, for the first teacher whose aid he solicited, (undoubtedly a philosophy professor) pointed out that the idea of a fresh start was even then an established traditionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;one with a long, rich history dating back to at least the flight from Egypt. The traditions, beliefs, customs, practices, and ceremonies handed down from generation to generation, have long been honored on all campuses; and indeed they should be, for they undergird the very foundation of any institution. Who at Hope College wants to do away with the fun and horseplay associated with Pulls, Nykerks, Kangaroo Courts? And who can dfeny the steadying influence on a hundred classes of graduates of the magnificent idea that education is an anchor of hope for people? But unthinking acceptance of all hoary traditions without repeated, critical appraisals of their relevance and current significance produces a community that clings to the buggy in an age of jets. Tomorrow, we must remember, is just as certain as yesterday. Two years ago the educational world was rocked when students at Berkeley, sneering at tradition, raised a new rallying standard with "You can't trust anyone over thirty. This slogan, we heard, symbolized a fresh climate, it was a natural reaction to the paternalism and fuddy-duddiness of older, established authority. Student commentators reported that it signaled the start of a new tradition on U. S. campuses. It substituted, we are told, the dynamism of youth for the stagnancy of age. "Where in this intellectual maelstrom that is still raging," you and I may ask, "do those of us who now make up Hope College stand? With the creative forces of youth or with the steadying experience of m a t u r i t y ? " And the honest reply, 1 feel, is with both. The single most exciting idea I have encountered in my associations here is that education is a glorious alchemy in which the student and faculty generations join hands and pool resources in transforming the world into a brighter and better tomorrow. Only as we are anchored in all that is great, and true, and noble from the past, in mutual faith, trust, respect, and understanding can we reach toward the stars. Age and experience do not hold a monopoly on workable answeis. Youth and enthusiasm do not h a \ e the only true vision of a meaningful future. Hope College knows first-hand that cooperation among scholars and seekers of all ages is not only possibleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it is the only road to a creative, exhilarating tomorrow. This is the tradition that we must preserve above all others, for it alone can preserve us. Calvin VanderWerf

Rroshimon O r g a n i z e d for "THoir Rirsrt V ^ s t r or Run etnd Competition

The class of a new decade and a new century arrived as most classes doâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;with feelings of mixed emotion and anxiety. However, these feelings were quickly overcome with the excitement of orientation and the developing feeling of class spirit and unity as expressed in the Pull and the victorious Nykerk Cup Contest. Between serenades and waterfights, the class officers were elected. Under their direction a constitution was drawn up and ratified to last for four years. This document proved to be quite an innovation as it provided for the election of an advisory committee, the annual collection of dues, class activity cards and a class newsletter. All of these provisions were carried out with a now characteristic spirit of unity and enthusiasm. The class activity cards provided for reduced rates for the rather stormy formal, "Something Springy," the dance held in March and the beach party held in May. With the permanent constitution, the Class of 1970 looks forward to its next three years at Hope and considers its first year an honor and a memory in the Hope College community.

With the flip of a coin, another decision is made. Sophomore Class officers were Jim Piers, Vice President; Patty Dykstra, Treasurer; Bonnie Brandsma, Secretary; Don Luidens, President.

"The very best class that ever was, couldn't be anyone else but usâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Get a load of the Class of '69". This was the battle cry heard at the beginning of the year which culminated in the Sophomore Pull Victory. It was quite a switch from our defeated, yet spirited efforts during freshman year. With our Sophomore year behind us now, we look back at this eventful year which marks the half-way point of our college years. Under the direction of Don Luidens, the officers and Class Council were busy organizing the Pull, Nykerk, (we lost), three all-school dances, and various money-raising activities. It seems incredible that two years have elapsed, but now we, as a class and as individuals, look forward to our two remaining years, and the decisions to be made, careers to be sought, and lives to be further enriched.

CleisÂŠ or 'â&#x201A;Ź>S Was Still United in Spirit

As Juniors, we have left behind us two successful years and have assumed the role of advisors to the Freshman Cljiss. After our two Pull victories and Nykerk wins, we attempted to help the Class of '70 in the capacity of coaches and trainers for their two competitions. A purely-Junior activity was held in the Fall. Pizza and dancing at the Old Crow kept our " '68 is Great" spirit burning;. Now we look forward to our remaining year with amazement that our college career is ending so soon.

Gerald Alhart,

As the Class of 1967, we greet graduation with a sigh and a sense of challenge. Leaving favorite professors and friends is a sorrow, but their impressions on us are indelible. Much of what we are and what we believe has been formulated here at Hope. For it is here that the frightened freshman boy became a man; the giggling girl became a woman; the student, a responsible citizen. Ours is a challenged generation, and we hope we have prepared to meet its challenges through our c tudies and life at Hope. Hope has helped us grow in academic wisdom and self-awareness, and by her example, has given us a stronger faith in God and humanity. We hope that we were able to contribute to the strength of Hope and that our loyalty to her and her purpose will continue to live in us.

"a.Âťs â&#x20AC;˘r?

President and Mrs. Vunder Werf greeted Senior, Irene Jaarsma and her parents at the Commencement Day Breakfast in the Pine Grove. At Baccalaureate, Rev. Norman Thomas described "a dimension of life" to graduating Seniors as they sat in Dimnent Chapel for the last time.

Commencement signifies beginning. At the June 5th ceremony, Seniors graduated from the tiny, secure life of a college student to the unpredictable, often harsh, life in that "outer world". College years should be a preparation to commence that life. A liberal education outside, as well as inside, the classroom, begins to mold a personality that will be able to cope with coming problems; it w lI lead to rich fulfillment of one's own life; it will help one determine how he can enrich the lives of others and contribute at least in small measure to a degree of betterment for the world. At Graduation, Seniors have an opportunity to reflect on all they have attempted, and all they, perhaps should have attempted. The feeling is often one of fear and apprehension, but, upheld by faith in the powers that be, as well as confidence in their own strength and intellect, they can, as everyone must, proceed to discover the "fair adventure of tomorrow."

Serious faces looked toward a new, perhaps

vague, future.
