Joan Schroeder aids in the ground-breaking ceremonies for the new dormitory which should relieve the pressure on women's housing, when completed in 1960.

Rooming Assignments

Given to Women ' 'What room did you get?*' "Durfee 202." "Good, I'll be right across

the hall. We'll have a blast." So it went last week as hun-

dreds of Hope's women went

through the long process of pull-

ing rooms. There was talk, later,

about things tha t were related.

We sat and listened.

"Fourscore and seven minutes

ago our four deans broke ground

for a Columbian Mansion. Pro-

found words emanated f rom the

lips of those concerned only to be

outdone by the more profound

shovelfuls of sand displaced in an

eager a t tempt a t hardihood. Well,

as fo r me and my belongings, give

me VanVleck or give me Calvin."

Wish we could get back in the

annex again. What riots we had

there." You lived there as a fresh-

man. Would you replace your jun-

ior year with your f reshman?

Heavens no, when you think of all

the things you've learned, and

heard and seen and found . . .

"Voorhees wouldn't be bad to

live in again. If we all got to-

gether in one hall." Why do we

always stick together this way?

We landed together as freshmen

and we're nothing but a clique.

How many times have we vowed

to get as f a r away from each other

as possible? And don't I get on

their nerves no end, and vice ver-

sa. But I'm not going to say no.

Here I sit.

"When are they going to have

the new dorm finished?" It 's a

good question, but not while we're

still here. It'll probably go up

with the grace and ease of a hard-

shelled crab backing its way into

the mouth of a milkbottle. By that

time even the political conventions

will be over with. We ought to

go to the one in Chicago.

"Hardly seems possible tha t

we're this f a r in college already,

does i t ? " Yes it does, we've been

Interview

Buttrick Gives Views On Chaplain for Hope

by Sharon Grossman

Dr. George A. Buttrick, the

speaker of our "R. E. Week in

Miniature" recently, preaches at

Harvard Universary three out of

every four Sundays.

It used to be the practice of

H a r v a r d to have a different

Dr. George A. Buttrick

preacher every Sunday but the

services were poorly attended and

the administration was eager to in

crease Biblical studies and interest

in the church.

I t was also felt tha t if one man

were to preach regularly, the stu-

dents would come to him for coun-

seling. This has proved to be very

successful. The Sunday morning

services are crowded and the wait-

ing list of s tudents for counseling

is very long.

When asked about the need for a chaplain here at Hope Dr. Buttrick replied that he could see two sides to the mat ter .

Because of the many Holland City churches which are close to the campus, Dr. Buttrick feels tha t if there were a campus church there would be a conflict with these churches which welcome Hope stu-dents to their services and in the participation of choir and Sunday School teachers.

The advantage of having a chap-lain, on the other hand, would be t ha t he would be available fo r counseling a t all times.

Anastasia Finale Tonite Anastasia, the exciting melo-

drama of a girl who seeks to find the answer to her t rue identity — whether she is an imperial prin-cess or impostor — was presented on Wednesday and Thursday, May 13, 14, and will be presented tonite a t 8:15 P.M., in the Hope College Music Auditorium by Pallette and Masque.

the glories of their state.

A long established tradition, this one week in spring offers an op-portunity for the inhabitants of Michigan to publicize their very special par t of the country. For as K. T. Keller, former chairman of Michigan Week stated: "Michigan has more to brag about than any other s tate in the union."

This is the state of the Bridge — the $100 million s t ructure that is listed among the wonders of the world. This is the s ta te of dynamic Detroit — the birthplace of auto-mobiles that are driven around the world.

This is the state of glistening winters — the dream of countless worshipers of snow and sun. This is the state of sparkling waters — the paradise of rushing s t reams and peaceful lakes.

"Mighty Michigan." Is it any wonder tha t Michigan chose as its s ta te motto, "Si Quaeris Penin-sulam Amoenam Circumspice" ? If You Seek a Pleasant Peninsula, Look About You.

Required Class Attendance? A record which is kept carefully by each student — perhaps even

more carefully than the record of his grades — is tha t of the number of cuts he has in each class. Occasionally a student is seen running to class because he has "used up" a safe number of cuts. Some s tu-dents hardly ever cut, while others cut indiscriminately. Actually, however, there should not be a limited number of cuts to use up, tha t is to say, class attendance should not be required!

The college bulletin s tates tha t :

"Class attendance is regarded as an essential part of the educational process at Hope College. The student is expected to benefit by classroom discussions as well as by his daily text assignments. In the classroom he gives his reactions and listens to the reactions of his fellow students. In such an educative pro-cess, a student misses an irreplaceable something when he misses class.

In accordance with these principles, all absences have an ad-verse effect upon the teacher's est imate of the student 's progress in the course unless made up to the satisfaction of the instructor. The student is to consider himself directly responsible for his absences. It is his responsibility to present an excuse to and to request make-up privileges f rom his instructor."

Actually what is at issue here is the integrity of the s tudent himself. If class attendance is an essential par t of the educative pro-cess then this is fo r the student himself to determine. It does not seem necessary to require something which is essential to one's education.

When a person comes to college he is supposedly interested in securing the best education tha t is available to him. If he is genuinely interested in using every available channel of learning then he will come to class of his own volition. I f , however, the student does not take advantage if available opportunities then it may be regarded as his loss. In either case it is not the duty of the college to require the student to take advantage of his opportunities.

The mature student can determine whether it benefits to attend a particular class or to cut it. The immature "s tudent" who cuts classes indiscriminately and whose grades suffer as a result of it should not be coerced into attending class but permitted to follow the road he has chosen.

Actually, there are some courses where the material is presented directly from the book and in which the student can obtain the material from the text on his own without a t tending class. Some courses are primarily drill which can be done alone. There are other courses which consist primarily of lectures. I t is false to assume all classes of all courses to have the same educative value. Some courses do not demand the student 's attendance as others do.

Also there are times such as just before exams when a student perhaps could use his time more wisely by studying on his own ra ther than sit in class. This procedure has already been demonstrated on our campus when the last week before exams is left to the discretion of the student. He is expected to study on his own, but if he is in need of help the instructor is. available.

Furthermore, class attendance should not be used as a th rea t for a grade. Absences should not be always regarded as the student 's desire jus t to " take the hour off," but as a sign t ha t the instructor might not be presenting the material adequately so tha t the student feels he may benefit more by studying on his own. Required attendance should not be used as a crutch by the instructor. The best instructors, with the most interesting courses and the most interesting and worth-while presentat ions have the best attendance.

I t is time we recognize — as other educational philosophies do — that the student can decide fo r himself how to most effectively derive the greates t benefit from his courses. If a student can a t ta in a good grade and master the material, he should be able to decide whether or not class at tendance is essential.

The Inquiring

Reporter By J a n e Tomlinson

Question: What do you think of

Tulip Time?

Vivian Anderson, senior: My

first year here I thought it was

grea t ! My second year it was

great , but much too crowded. Now

this, my third year in Holland —

well, I'll have to wait and see.

Sarah Needham, sophomore: I

think Tulip Time in itself is a very

beautiful t i m e manifes t ing the

glory of spring. But when the

town of Holland becomes filled be-

yond reason with curious people

just to see a tulip festival, I think

it becomes ridiculous. It is all right

for the visitors and fo r the mer-

chants in town, but it is the time

I would like to hibernate.

Reporter 's Note : "The Inquir-

ing Reporter", was originated to

feel out student opinion on various

mat ters that, in one way or an-

other, had an effect on life at Hope

College. On one or two occasions

there has been sufficient interest

to s t imulate enough responses to

the poll to establish a good repre-

sentation of student opinion.

In most cases this has not hap-pened. WHY? It could be the in-appropriateness of the questions used. It could be apathy on the part of the student body. If the questions are at fault, if they are not of immediate interest to you — I would appreciate suggestions. If the problem is apathy on the part of the student body — Let 's just call it Spring Fever and forget about it.

Senior Philosophy

Science-Religion Viewed by James Tan

Science and religion can go hand in hand as long as they don't claim authority on each other 's terr i tory. Both are concerned with different perspectives of t ruth.

Science is a systematic and for-mulated knowledge, it can help re-ligion provided it does not try to explain the ultimate being — God cannot be found in scientific data.

I think that science should play an important role in liberal a r t s education. By studying science, it enriches our consciousness by mak-ing us acquainted with new and valuable ways of thinking so tha t we may be more aware of the uni-verse we live in and the greatness of our Creator.

But we should realize also tha t tools of scientific method like mathematical equations, logical rules and disciplined observations and so on are just means, not ends.

I t is a g rea t intellectual venture to understand the s tructures of man and nature. When it comes to the "whys" and "wherefores" of one's existence it can only be found in Christ.

The I-Thou relationship of ev-eryman with God cannot be found in a methodology which is subject to the law of development itself.

There are infinite possibilities beyond the limitations of the hum-an mind. I wonder how of ten we underestimate the role of appre-ciation and creation and entangle ourselves in scientific analysis and criticism.

If man can come to know the mighty power and love of the Lord, he would come to the realiza-tion of his own finiteness in every field of human knowledge and stand in f ron t of Him with an open heart sincerely, reverently and even submissively with fai th.

Freedom and Southeastern Asia by D. M. Beekman

Albion College has presented fo r the past eight years a very in-terest ing and s t imulat ing forum, sponsored by the Speech Depart-ment. For one day the auditorium in North Hall serves a miniature United Nations, where representa-tives f rom different countries speak on a chosen subject. This year the topic was FREEDOM and SOUTH-EASTERN ASIA.

Last Thursday, May 7th, Mr. W. Wichers f rom the Netherlands In-formation Service here in Holland, who served on the panel, Ron Chandler, Andy Sens and I went to Albion's campus as representa-tives f rom Hope College.

Credit has to be given to the or-ganizers fo r gather ing a number of outstanding men, who, in some way or another, were experts on their topics.

Yearbook Dedicated

"In recognition of a man of superb integrity, a man who is a sound scholar, an inspiring teach-er, an understanding counselor, a man who has contributed much to bring Hope College along the road to a br ighter fu ture , we, the class of 1960, dedicate this Milestone to Dr. William Vander Lugt.

These are the words used by Betty Fell, editor-in-chief of the 1959 Milestone, in the chapel ser-vice dedicating this yearbook.

Dr. Vander Lugt, a member of the Hope College staff f o r 6 years, received this dedication in chapel on Monday, May 11. He was re-cognized as "the spokesman of a most intelligent, lucid, and effect-ive philosophy of Christian educa-tion.

Hope College students in the past two weeks have been seen busily preparing for exams at the Lake and Parks throughout the town.

We heard for example Mr. Mo-hamed Sopiee, First Secretary, Permanent Mission of the Federa-tion of Malaya to the United Na-tions, speaking fo r the Federation of Malaya, and, fo r the members of the I.R.C. a well known and liked man, Mr. Martin Hutton, Editor of the Malay Mail of Kuala Lumpur, Malaya, supplied some scattered information.

« * * * •

Or I could get excited about the speech and some dubious expres-sions of Dr. Ali Sastroamidjojo, Permanent Representative to the United Nations f rom Indonesia.

Each speaker presented a view on the country he was famil iar with, ei ther due to birth or work. The speeches were well prepared and fo r the most par t very flatter-ing for the new-born, independent s tates of South Eas t Asia.

* * * * *

I noticed the strong, nationalist-ic sentiment, sometimes apologiz-ing fo r the lack of pace, but al-ways very sure about the great fu ture wait ing in the damping dawn of the tropics. Compliments and friendly bows were as numer-ous as the cigarette smokers in f r o n t of Van Raalte between classes.

We have to admit tha t we ad-mire the progress and political vic-tory of the Republic of Vietnam, as discussed by Dr. Weesley Fishel, Coordinator, Vietnam Project , De-par tment of . Political Science, Michigan State University, or the stern and determined course the Federation of Malaya is following in the dangerous waters of inter-national politics.

* * * * *

But the complete neglect of men-tioning the f ru i t s of colonization, even as a contrast against the sup-pression of the horrid things the colonial powers did, bothered us.

For we have to admit that , in spite of the loudly basooned hor-rors of colonialism, it provided these countries with the opportun-ity to become modern and a mem-ber of the "world family of na-tions."

Without the hated Caucasian race, s t a r t ing in the beginning for personal profits but then expand-ing into the education of top men, the building of schools, hospitals, etc., the people of South Eas t Asia would never have at tained the place under the sun they have now, regardless of the hoarse cries for freedom and the victims on both sides fo r a cause tha t could have been settled by sound and calm conferences.

Physics Teachers Meet at Hope

Hope College was be the scene of the spring meeting of the Mich-igan section of the American As-sociation of Physics Teachers held on Saturday, May 9.

In the morning the 75 physics teachers were welcomed by Pres-ident Lubbers of Hope College. Mr. Richard Schlezel f rom Michigan State University spoke on Ap-proaches to the Clock Paradox."

Another guest speaker for the morning session was W a l t e r Mayer from Michigan State Uni-versity, who addressed the as-sembly on the topic, "Structural Irregulari t ies in Transparent Sin-gle Crystals."

A panel of four physics profes-sors concluded t h e morning's activities discussing "What Should We Expect of High School Phy-s ics?" Part icipat ing were: James Barnes, Eastern Michigan Univer-sity, Alonzo Wierenga, S o u t h Haven Jr . High School, Allen Bus-kirk, Kalamazoo College, a n d Everet t Phelps f rom Wayne State University.

A f t e r the noon luncheon, the group reconvened for its annual business meeting when election of officers took place.

Following the business meeting, John Vander Velde f rom the Uni-versity of Michigan talked on the subject, "Research in High Energy Physics Using a Xenon Bubble Chamber."

Another University of Michigan professor, H. R. Crane, spoke about "Automation in the Class-room."

The annual m e e t i n g w a s closed with a talk presented by George Platzer , Jr. , f rom the Chrysler Inst i tute of Engineering. His topic was "A Simple Ap-proach to Teaching Transistor Theory."

At the conclusion of the meet-ing, those at tending were taken for a tour of the tulip lanes and farms.

Three of the participating speak-ers fo r the conference were Hope Alumni: Wal ter Mayer, Alonzo Wierenga, and John Vander Velde.

Artist Is Teacher

As a teacher a t Monterey Penin-sula College in California and a one-time college s tudent himself, Bibler draws on t rue facets of life in his portrayal of our sympathy-rending Worthal.

Bibler drew his first cartoon and received his first rejection slip a t the age of 12. He received a BFA at Kansas University in 1950. He received his BA at Colorado State College and his MA at Stanford.

Worthal has had quite a face-lift ing f rom the time he first ap-peared in 1947 in the University Daily Kansan. Worthal began as a composite of the most stupid characteristics of 14 Bibler-drawn faces. At the time he had a tall boxy head and it was somewhat shaped head without a neck. His identifying characteristics, his hair, nose, and buck teeth, have not changed.

Exaggeration Employed Worthal 's running batt les with

the Big Men on Campus and with Professor Snarf have just enough reality in them to remind students of their o w n experiences and enough exaggerat ion to show that college life is humorous.

I t is Worthal 's job to step on people's toes. Laughs alone prove his value. Some people claim tha t "Worthal ' s greates t value lies in his ability to give potential and actual snar fs a look a t themselves as others see them." Professor Snarf has to develop the ability to look the other way on Worthal 's campuses. Cartoon Widely Used

About 300 college papers use "Lit t leMan on Campus." Most of these are daily papers. Mexico City College is the latest added to the list. That makes Mexico, Can-ada, and the 50 states using LMOC.

"Most people think this is a big OPERATION, but actually only in so f a r as it is t ime consuming," Bibler said.

LMOC augments Bibler's salary

just enough to permit him to "live like people." Bibler adds, "Last year J found tha t a f t e r initial and final expenses fo r the academic year, I couldn't have bought my wife a new girdle." He describes his wife as a beautiful blonde with several children.

He's Busy Man On Campus Bibler carries a teaching load of

22 hours, advises a r t s tudents, and acts as head of the ar t department. "All this keeps me busy, thus my drawing method has to be some-what hap-happy-hazard," Bibler explains. "I carry a little black book most of the time and jot ideas down as they come."

Most of his ideas come from "just s i t t ing down and thinking of them." Gripes of students and fac-ulty are great sources.

Bibler also teaches watercolor-ing, commercial ar t , design, color, and beginning craf ts . "I ra ther miss my old ar t education classes," he said.

Likes Fan Mail Asked about fan mail, Bibler

said, "I 'm always happy to receive one. I t kind of compensates fo r the work. One girl wrote a f t e r having flunked a test she returned home to find tha t Worthal had just flunked a whopper too. She said it picked up her own spirits and made her feel better. I suppose if there is any good in the cartoon, it might happen in this manner." Ironically, Bibler signs his mail—

Prof Snarf Bibler

Bibler's cartoons are drawn over a year in advance of publication. "Right now, for example," he said, "I have about two-thirds of the cartoons fo r 1959-60 finished." Cost Rise Predicted

The next two years will be crit-ical ones fo r LMOC. A price raise is in order. Unlike general news-paper syndicates, LMOC has to send out advertising three and four t imes a year because college editors change.

Worthal has by now become an institution in himself. One analy-sis of LMOC states, "There is something heroic about Worthal 's undaunted struggle, something touching about Snarf ' s willingness to suffer in order to make others suffer."
