I i OPE COLLEGE anc or OLLAND, MICHIGAN 82nd Anniversary-14 Hope College, Holland, Mich. 49423 December 12, 1969 Appointed by CLB Committee to study parietals Shakespeare Company to perform 'Macbeth' William Shakespeare's Mac- beth will be presented hy the National Shakespeare Company Jan. 30 in the Holland Civic Center as part of the Great Per- formance Series. The group, a nationally known company, is on an eight- month tour with a cast of 12 actors performing Shakespeare's The Tempest and Moliere's SehooI for Wives, as well as Maebeth. PHILIP MEISTER, co-founder of the National Shakespeare Company, is the artistic director of the production. Playing Mac- beth will be Robert Evans Col- lins. Collins came to the group directly from the Lake Cham- plain Shakespeare Festival where he played Polixenes in Winter's Tale and Richard in Riehard III. Issue rocks Council Collins attended the John Lcr- nalds Academy of Dramatic Art. Marguerite Davis will be play- ing Lady Macbeth. She has made several films and television appearances as well as stage appearances. SHE HAS PLAYED the Duchess of York in Riehard III, the Princess in Sweet Bird of Youth, and has appeared in The Doe tors, Sweet Charity, Popi and Midnight Cowboy. She holds a B.A. degree in speech from the University of Illinois. The set used in this produc- tion is unique in that it is a tri- level aluminum structure which is adjustable to any size stage. It was designed by William Pit- kin, a distinguished Broadway set designer. by Jean DeGraff anchor Reporter The Campus Life Board formed a special committee to make a "progress report" on the open visitation proposal of the Student Congress at its meeting last Friday. THE COMMITTEE is to study the questions that have been raised about the new policy and to report on the objections to the strengths of the policy. CLB chairman Dr. David Mark- er said that he had invited Charles Curry, Director of Admissions, Marian Stryker, Alumni Executive Secretary and President Calvin A. VanderWerf to see how the pro- posal might affect the alumni and operations of admission, and to investigate Board of Trustee re- action while the proposal is still being considered. VANDERWERF SAID that the Board of Trustees, which would have final reviewing power if the proposal was passed, would give "sincere consideration to the policy." He added that the policy "that comes out should be de- cided with real conviction and should be based on real ration- ale." He further said that he hoped that what "comes out of the Board is not decided on a 7-6 Churches refuse draft card by Tom Donia anchor Editor The Vietnam war issue and the draft rocked the National Council of Churches general assembly last week as the result of an attempt by Hope College junior James Rubins to turn his draft card over to the Council. RUBINS PRESENTED a reso- lution to the Council's session Wednesday, Dec. 3, in Detroit which would make the NCC responsible for his card. He sat quietly through four-and-a-half hours of debate which followed the resolution and its eventual defeat. Rubins received a standing ovation for his statement after the final vote. 4 T will respect the decision." he said. "1 am not in agreement with it. 1 will hold no grudge against the people who voted against me. 1 respect very highly those people who, in con- science, did stand up and be counted. I can see there is life in the church from the kind of dis- cussion that went on here in the committee of reference. 1 take my stand with the church. Thank you and (iod help us all." COMING TO RUBINS' sup- port after the vote was the gray- haired NCC recording secretary and Reformed Church in America official. Rev. Marion de Velder. "It seems very ironical that we can be so eloquent in telling an individual to follow his conscience and commit an act of civil disobe- dience, but as a Council of Churches we cannot bring our- selves to be put in danger, too," he said. "If we do nothing more, we are not keeping faith with these young people." JAMES RUBINS But Rev. Jack York, an Episco- pal priest serving in the Free Church of Berkely, Calif., took the podium after de Velder's remarks and shouted, "This is despicable." He splashed red paint over the work table of top NCC officials to emphasize his state- ment: "The blood of Vietnamese and Americans is dripping from the minutes of this meeting and from our hands. By God, wash off the blood of your brothers." "IT WASN'T MY intention to make any dramatic demands," Rubins said. "1 was looking for advice. The actions of York and his group seemed rather childish to me, but if it was his way of witnessing, 1 can't question his actions." Rubins had discussed his reso- lution with RCA delegates. The original statement asked that the NCC pass Rubins' draft card on to Selective Service offices. The question of legality of the action was presented, but no concensus of opinion could be reached. "ONE WOMAN delegate didn't want to take action which was open to interpretation," Rubins said. "She rewrote the resolution to make the action clearly illegal. She actually strengthened it." Under the new resolution, the NCC would keep the draft card in its possession rather than pass it on to the Selective Service. The amendment was approved by a 237-155 vote, and the new resolu- tion was passed by a 228-184 majority, but a point of order noted that a two-thirds majority was needed on the question. "THIS WAS JUST a ploy by the opposition," Rubins said. "Other motions had been passed by a simple majority earlier in the convention without receiving the necessary two-thirds vote." A second vote was taken on the original resolution to pass the card on, but was defeated by 200 to 176. Rubins later stated that his actions were partly the result of the Vietnam peace moratorium held at Hope in October. "1 heard Rev. Raymond Pontier say that if my conscience told me the war in Vietnam and the draft were immoral, 1 should do something about it. 1 decided to attempt to turn my card over to the NCC, and Pontier helped me write the resolution which was presented." "1 COULDN'T just go before the Council and say 'what should 1 do about the draft?" Rubins continued. "I was looking for advice from the church, but the (Continued on page 6. eolumn 3) vote, but that there is unanimity before any decision is made." VanderWerf stated that several questions should be answered be- fore the proposal is passed. He questioned whether the proposal is in harmony with the aims and purposes of Hope College, whether it will further the pro- gram of an educational institu- tion, whether it will benefit a majority of students, who will eventually accept responsibility for the program and what the specific benefits will be for the College community. He further questioned whether there were any alternatives to the proposal. HE ADDED THAT the policy presented a problem for room- mates. An alternative to the pro- posal might be the use of other rooms on campus other than stu- dent rooms, he said. Mrs. Stryker sent a letter to the Board and stated that "alumni disturbance over this college trend is minimal." Curry did not see that this proposal would greatly influence admissions, but added that it "might raise an eyebrow of the over-protective mother of a fe- male student." MARKER HAD also petitioned the faculty for their comments, because the faculty could make use of its option to review the proposal if it is passed by the CLB. Harrison Ryker, who had served last year as the faculty advisor in the Arcadian fraternity house, stated in a letter that he saw the policy as providing a significant service to the students in the areas of morale and mental health. He added that it is wrong for the College to gear its policy to the two per cent or five per cent of students who make for misbe- havior. Instead the College should gear its policy to those who do not misbehave. HE FURTHER stated that in "test house parties" sponsored last year by the Arcadian frater- nity at which girls were allowed to be in men's rooms, the "good behavior of the men increased with the presence of members of the opposite sex." Dr. Leslie Beach and Dr. Robert Brown also sent state- ments to the Board that they definitely approve of the policy. Dr. James Van Putten wrote that such a policy would "attract men students to the College." DR. HARRY Frissel wrote that such a policy is not needed be- cause there will soon be a new student center. Dr. Jay Folkert wrote the Board that the parents of students had defeated the proposal by a 5-2 vote last year, and that the College can expect to lose the support of many parents if the proposal is passed. He further stated that the stu- dents are admitted to a college that does not have an intervisita- tion plan. Hope College has a moral obligation to tell students and parents about the plan before the beginning of a new year, not during the school year. DR. GERHARD Megow does not think that the intervisitation proposal should be passed. In a letter to the Board, he wrote that the students have not acted re- sponsibly in the past. He listed the "repair and restoration work in dorms and other buildings and the grounds due to actions of negli- gence, irresponsibility, and thoughtlessness on the part of the student body." He further wrote that "what is going on here is faddism in my opinion. 1 would not send my daughter to a 'Christian' college with an open visitation policy." He also suggested that there might be some legal manifestations to be considered by the Board. He wrote, "Suppose a coed be- comes involved in some serious long range consequences as a re- sult of such newly established policies. "IF UNDER AGE, would the parents have a legal right to sue the College for sustained impair- ments, tangible and intangible, of the coed's and parents' ensuing life because the College permitted circumstances to be more than (Continued on page 6, eolumn 4) Post resigns Church Relations directorship Stuart Post announced Wed- nesday his resignation as Direc- tor of Church Relations effec- tive Jan. 1, to assume the posi- tion of Director of Development of the Reformed Church sem- inaries.

Churches refuse draft card by Tom Donia anchor Editor

The Vie tnam war issue and the draf t rocked the Nat ional Counci l of Churches general assembly last week as the result of an a t t e m p t by Hope College jun io r J ames Rubins to turn his d ra f t card over to the Council .

RUBINS P R E S E N T E D a reso-lution t o the Counci l ' s session Wednesday, Dec. 3, in Detroit which would make the NCC responsible for his card. He sat quie t ly through four-and-a-half hours of deba te which fo l lowed the resolut ion and its eventual defeat .

COMING TO R U B I N S ' sup-port a f t e r the vote was the gray-haired NCC recording secretary and R e f o r m e d Church in America off ic ia l . Rev. Marion de Velder. " I t seems very ironical t ha t we can be so e loquen t in tell ing an individual to fol low his conscience and commi t an act of civil disobe-dience, but as a Counci l of Churches we c a n n o t bring our-selves to be put in danger , t o o , " he said.

" I f we do no th ing more , we are not keeping fai th with these y o u n g peop le . "

JAMES RUBINS

But Rev. Jack York, an Episco-pal priest serving in the Free Church of Berkely, Calif., took the p o d i u m a f t e r de Velder ' s remarks and shou ted , " T h i s is desp icable ." He splashed red paint over the work table of t op NCC off icials to emphas ize his state-men t : " T h e blood of Vie tnamese and Amer icans is dr ipping f rom the minu te s of this meet ing and f rom our hands. By God, wash off the b lood of your b ro the r s . "

"IT WASN'T MY in ten t ion to make any dramat ic d e m a n d s , " Rubins said. "1 was looking for advice. The act ions of York and his group seemed ra ther childish to me, but if it was his way of witnessing, 1 can ' t ques t ion his ac t ions . "

Rub ins had discussed his reso-lution with RCA delegates. The original s t a t emen t asked that the

" A second vote was taken on the original resolut ion to pass the card on, but was de fea t ed by 200 to 176.

VanderWerf s tated that several ques t ions should be answered be-fore the proposal is passed.

He fu r t he r ques t ioned whe the r there were any al ternat ives to the proposal .

HE ADDED THAT the policy presented a p rob lem for room-mates. An al ternat ive to the pro-posal might be the use of o the r rooms on c a m p u s o the r than stu-dent rooms, he said.

Mrs. S t ryke r sent a let ter to the Board and s ta ted that " a l u m n i d is turbance over this college t rend is min imal . "

Curry did not see that this proposal would greatly inf luence admissions, but added that it " m i g h t raise an eyebrow of the over-protect ive m o t h e r of a fe-male s t u d e n t . "

MARKER HAD also pe t i t ioned the facul ty for their c o m m e n t s , because the facul ty could make use of its o p t i o n to review the proposal if it is passed by the CLB.

Har r i son Ryker , who had served last year as the facul ty advisor in the Arcadian f ra te rn i ty house , s ta ted in a let ter that he saw the policy as providing a significant service to the s tuden t s in the areas of morale and mental heal th .

He added that it is wrong for the College to gear its policy to the two per cent or five per cent of s tuden t s who make for misbe-havior. Ins tead the College should gear its policy to those who do not misbehave.

with the presence of m e m b e r s of the oppos i t e s ex . "

Dr. Leslie Beach and Dr. Rober t Brown also sent state-men t s to the Board that they def in i te ly approve of the policy.

DR. HARRY Frissel wro te that such a policy is not needed be-cause there will soon be a new s tudent center .

Dr. Jay Folker t wrote the Board that the pa ren t s of s tuden t s had defea ted the proposal by a 5-2 vote last year , and that the College can expec t to lose the suppor t of many pa ren t s if the proposal is passed.

He fu r the r s tated that the stu-den t s are a d m i t t e d to a college that does not have an intervisita-tion plan. Hope College has a moral obl igat ion to tell s t uden t s and paren ts abou t the plan before the beginning of a new year , not dur ing the school year.

folk mass on Hope ' s campus will be held Sunday at 3 p .m. in the Coffee Grounds .

" T h e folk mass will be open to al l ," stated Dan McAulife, representing the Cathol ics ," and will be both an expression of worship for the 58 Catholics on campus and a means for Protest-ants to bet ter unders tand Catho-l icism."

The folk mass will follow the basic s t ructure of a Cathol ic mass with the addi t ion of folk music.

The folk mass is the result of a pet i t ion f rom Catholics on campus for a place to worship. McAulife represented the Catho-lics and submit ted the pet i t ion to the Religious Life Commi t -tee. He was met with encourage-men t . and his pet i t ion was re-c o m m e n d e d to the Campus Life

Moratorium to be localized T h e V ie tnam Morator ium

C o m m i t t e e will work to have stu-dents bring the anti-war move-ment to their home towns during Chr i s tmas vacation using the theme "Peace on F a r t h . "

SAM BROWN, co-ordinator of the Vietnam Morator ium Commit -tee, said, " I t would indeed be a tragedy to miss the oppo r tun i t y to carry the anti-war movement f rom our university communi t i e s to our home towns. The work necessary to end the war in Viet-nam cannot be restricted to the areas where we have already been active. We must ' take the mora-tor ium home for Chris tmas. ' "

The commi t t e e suggested that s tuden t s canvass ne ighborhoods , d is t r ibute leaflets to shoppers , organize high school s tudents , send delegations to elected offi-cials and hold vigils or processions

on Chris tmas eve, one of three mora to r ium days this mon th .

MORATORIUM DAYS are December 12, 13 and 24. Since the entire focus for the month is on a small scale, basic grass-roots activity will be modest in scope. Today and tomor row, canvassing and leaflet d is t r ibut ion will occur m many areas across the nat ion. Town meetings are being held in some localities to discuss the e f fec t of defense and military spending upon local needs. Stu-den t s will visit the district off ices of their congressmen to discuss posi t ions on the war.

Activities center ing on the Chr is tmas theme of "Peace on E a r t h " are planned for December 24. A group of clergymen is being organized to relate the mora-tor ium to normal Chris tmas reli-gious activities. Among the events which will occur are vigils and

p rocess ions preceeding church se rv i ces , caroling which will emphasize "Peace on E a r t h " and special church services.

THE MORATORIUM Commit -tee recently sent a special memo to over 3000 campus organizers urging them to devote their at ten-tion to the Chris tmas peace e f for t . The C o m m i t t e e suggested that s tuden t s con tac t existing peace groups or sympathe t ic persons in home towns to bring them into the planning, in the hope that the Chris tmas e f fo r t would have a lastmg e f fec t .

Spokesmen for the mora to r ium poin ted out that many s tuden t s will re turn to their towns in Jan-uary be tween semesters, and could expand u p o n the initial December activity. Anti-war senti-ment would thus be solidified and peace groups organized in many areas which have seen little anti-war activity to date.

that it would be diff icult for parents of f reshmen t o get the s tudents to the College at a t ime during the week.

Student Congress president Tim Liggett s tated that beginning classes before Labor Day would put a burden on those s tudents whose summer jobs required them to work until Labor Day and those s tudents a t t end ing Vienna Summer School .

THE REMAINDER of the cal-endar for next year will be estab-lished by Dean for Academic Affairs Morret te Rider.

Dr. David Clark made a motion that classes be held on the day following Thanksgiving and have an extra day of vacation added to Christmas vacat ion.

Clark said that in this way s tuden t s will not leave for the entire week preceding Thanks-giving break. He added that the present vacation system "breaks up the semester in such unnatural ways ."

DR. JOHN HOLLENBACH stated that the s tuden t s and fac-ulty needed "a little block to get away f rom things ." He added that it was a long period f r o m Septem-ber to December , and a break in the semester was needed.

John N. Timmer named as new Alumni Director

J o h n Norman T immer of Bowie, Md., a ret ired United States Air Force Colonel , will become Director of Alumni and C o m m u n i t y Relat ions at Hope in January .

T immer , a 1938 graduate of Hope, served 20 years in the Air Corps start ing with his enlistment in 1942. At the t ime of his retire-ment in 1968, he was a colonel in the Command Cont ro l and Com-municat ions Directora te in the Pentagon. T immer was awarded the Air Force C o m m e n d a t i o n Medal and the Joint Services Com-mendat ion Medal.

After World War II and his discharge as a reserve off icer in 1946, T immer a t t ended Michigan State University and received his masters degree in economics and educa t ion before being recalled to serve during the Korean confl ict in 1951.

President Calvin VanderWerf added that if Thanksgiving vaca-tion is th rown ou t , there should be some other break during the semester.

Clark's mot ion was de fea ted .

THE BOARD ALSO discussed the registration and course num-bering procedures .

Director of data processing Kenneth Vink suggested that the course numbering system should be changed. He added that a survey he had made showed that 180 course changes had been made in the past two years.

HE ALSO SAID that com-plaints o f t e n come f rom univer-sities which are trying to under-stand the descript ion of a course listed on a s tuden t ' s t ranscr ipt . The course number listed does not compare with the descript ion listed in the College catalog.

V i n k r e c o m m e n d e d that courses be established in the hun-dreds level. Freshman courses would be listed in the 100's, and senior courses in the 400 's .

James Beckering said that such a system would help a s tudent to know if he were in a high level course.

H O L L E N B A C H MADE a mot ion that Vink should make a r ecommenda t ion to the AdAB concerning the course number ing system a f te r discussing the issue with the deans.

The mot ion was passed. In fu r the r ac t ion , the Board

tabled a request f rom the admis-sions commi t t ee that "all depar t -ments be encouraged to make up depar tmenta l b rochures to be used in the recruit ing of stu-den t s . "

DR. JAMES Van Put ten s tated that the admissions off ice is con-stantly gett ing requests for bro-chures f rom certain depa r tmen t s . Van Put ten added that there are a large number of s tuden t s with vocat ional interest .

He said that the admissions commi t t e e believed pre-profes-sional brochures are i m p o r t a n t , but that such brochures should be produced by the admissions com-mit tee and not depa r tmen t s of the College.

Hollenbach said that he saw some value in preparing the state-

ments , bu t he wasn' t sure if it were the j ob of the depa r tmen t iieads. He suggested that the pro-posal be tabled.

Silence is not golden The Campus Life Board is presently

considering one of the most controversial issues that it has had to face this year. The Board has been gathering information and testimony on inter-room visitation. It invited Charles Curry, Director of Admis-sions, to give his opinion regarding the possible effect of parietal hours on admis-sions and enrollment. It invited Marian Stryker, executive alumni secretary, to speak on possible reaction of Hope alumni. And it invited President Calvin VanderWerf to remark on what Board of Trustee opinion might be concerning the issue.

Curry reported that the open hours proposal would have l itt le effect on enroll-ment and that inter-room visitation was a feasible idea. Mrs. Stryker stated in a letter

tjj, *

oncl|or editorials that alumni disturbance would be minimal. But when VanderWerf was asked for his evaluation of Board of Trustee reaction to the proposal, he said, "The Board wil l give the subject careful thought." Someone obviously didn' t do his homework.

VanderWerf has to ld the anchor and the Student Congress that he does not wish to influence the policy-making structure by imposing his own view on that structure. This is an admirable position, for the President's unsolicited personal opinions of the issue might unduly influence the deci-sion makers. However, when the Campus Life Board specifically requests informa-t ion about the Board of Trustees f rom that Board's personal and only representative

on campus, he should not hide behind such excuses as " I would rather not second-guess reaction by the trustees." The CLB has not asked for second-guesses, it has asked for an honest appraisal which the President has refused to supply.

There are many possible reasons for VanderWerf's refusal to appraise the trust-ees. It could be he honestly doesn't know, although this is doubtful in the case of a man who has worked wi th and who is hired by the trustees. It could be that the President feels trustee reaction wil l be negative, and he is afraid to discourage CLB consideration of parietal hours. But this is also highly unlikely, for the Presi-dent does not seem to be a strong backer of the proposal himself; last week he questioned "whether the bill was in the positive interests of all students."

Or it could simply be that the President is afraid that the Board of Trustees is too unpredictable, and thus could prove him wrong. This may be the case, for Vander-Werf seems to like a great deal of support behind whatever move he makes. He want-ed to be sure when he decided about the October Vietnam peace moratorium, so he sent the question to the faculty, even thought they had no power to act on the recommendation. He waited for their "straw vote" before he made any personal choice.

The t ime has come for the Campus Life Board to demand the information it needs to make a decision on the parietal hours question. If VanderWerf chooses to remain silent, then maybe the trustees themselves should be asked to testify before the Board.

A concern for instruction This week the anchor has published

the first faculty evaluation by students open to public inspection in the history of the College. An analysis of the eval-uation and its meaning is nearly as im-portant as the numerical results of the evaluation.

The e v a l u a t i o n ques t ions were adapted from those of other institutions. Many large universities have made use of faculty evaluations for years, and smaller schools are now beginning to use them as well. Most of these schools use com-puters to compute the results and pub-lish them as an entire book.

The Hope College survey received 679 responses, representing about one-third of the student body. A total of 3,000 evaluations were computed. This was a good response, especially consider-ing the small amount of t ime allowed for students to complete the forms. A small amount of t ime was also allowed for computat ion of the results. It took only 13 hours to feed informat ion into the computer and obtain results. This compares wi th Dean for Academic Af-fairs Morrette Rider's statement that it would take "a group of students work-ing eight hours a day, a mon th " to do the same job.

Possibly the most important question on the survey is the first one. It is a general, over-all question rating the teacher and the way he handled the material. It applies equally to all teach-ers in all areas of study and can be appl ied to seminar courses, lecture courses, reading classes and advisory functions in independent study projects.

The four th evaluation question is per-haps the second most important, for it deals w i th the teachers knowledge of the subject he is teaching. The f i f th question was not answered by many stu-dents who have ungraded courses.

Question six asks whether the teacher provides any uni ty in his course. It is not applicable to many cases of indepen-dent study courses. The seventh question is particlarly relevant in the humanities, although many science professors were considered to have provided important intellectual leadership for students. Ques-t ion number eight asks about the teach-er's open-mindedness. While the question appears most applicable to the human-ities, science students often f ind that

their teachers encourage students to use d iverse methods of solving similar problems.

The ninth question is more important in some areas than in others. Science and mathematics students may f ind that memory is more important for exams than students in other areas. Students taking courses wi thout tests answered that memory was "un impor tan t " for exams. For professors in some areas, this question may be considered " fo r information on ly , " as memory would be required in the course no matter what professor taught it. For teachers in other areas, the answer may depend on the educational philosophy or personal preference of the individual professor. Question ten is similar, as math stu-dents, for example, are rarely required to write papers, particularly in lower level courses. This question may be use-ful in many cases simply as a reference for students who are planning their course schedules.

One of the most important aspects of the evaluation is its impact on students before they see the results. The evalu-ation provokes students to think about some basic concepts of education. It makes them ask the question, "Just what is a good professor?" Students begin to realize that a good teacher is one f rom whom they learn, not just one who is entertaining or an easy-grader. They also begin to realize that com-munication of knowledge and stimula-t ion of intellectual curiosity is what ed-ucation is all about.

Finally, students realized that the im-portance of the evaluation they were f i l l ing out was not to be under-estimated. There was no feeling of "re-venge" evidenced on the returns. And it is important to note that the students who evaluated t h u r teachers were of all class standings and all grade point aver-ages. There was no "e l i te" or " l o w grade point group" that dominated the re-turns.

The results of this f irst evaluation should be seriously considered by all members of the Hope communi ty , and attempts should be made in preparing t he next evaluation to include all persons concerned wi th the quali ty of instruction at Hope College.

Be advised that your parade permit does not allow you to go beyond this point."

Professor on trial by Art Buchwald

There seems to be a trend in universities these days to have college s tudents rate their professors. Some schools are even setting up s tudent boards to decide whether a teacher should get tenure or not. If it cont inues , we can well imagine the fol lowing scene.

A BOARD ROOM with three somber s tudents s tudying a dossier. There is a timid knock on the door . " C o m e in ," one of the s tudents shouts.

E n t e r Professor Higgins, nervously biting his lip. The three s tuden t s study him for a lmost a minute . Then the chairman speaks; " Y o u can smoke if you want. Professor, this report does not look very good. It says you slur your words, have a very annoying habit of clearing your throa t , and your handwri t ing on the black-board leaves much to be desired."

"ALL I'M ASKING is ano ther chance , " Professor Higgins pleads.

One of the o ther s tudents says, "Hig-gins, I would like to remind you that your parents went to a great deal of t rouble to make you a professor. Is this how you repay t h e m ? "

" I ' m sorry, gent lemen. I t ' s just that I've been writing my book on Antarct ic philo-sophy and I haven' t had enough t ime to work on my lectures ."

"A LIKELY STORY," another s tudent says. "If you ask me, you ' r e probably spending too much time thinking about your wife and children. This is not a count ry club, Higgins, and the sooner you discover this, the bet ter off you ' r e going to be ."

The chairman says, " T h e report also states you give too many exams and rely too much on outside references. What do you have to say to th is?"

"I don ' t want to complain, but the s tudents are always picking on me. I just can't seem to do anything r ight ."

"HIGGINS, I'D like to ask you this quest ion. How many hours of television do you watch at n igh t?"

" T w o hours, maybe t w o and a ha l f . " "Why don ' t you cut it down and

shape up to your responsibili t ies? Decide what you want ou t of life, Higgins. We're here to help y o u , but we can't do it if you don ' t help yourse l f . "

" I ' m trying t o . " Higgins says, " b u t it isn't easy. There ' s so much pressure on a professor these days that I seem to lose sight of my goal ."

"DON'T YOU THINK i t ' s a simple mat te r of discipline, Higgins? You've got to ident i fy with y o u r subject mat te r . Here is the report it says you ' r e con-stantly quot ing f r o m your own books . Do you call that t eaching?"

"Higgins ," the chai rman says, "I d o n ' t want to get off the subject , bu t it also says in the report you seem to concen-trate on the coeds in the first row when you ' r e lecturing. Do you have any excuse for this?"

" N o , sir ."

"What are we going to do with y o u , Higgins? What are we going to do with y o u ? "

"MAYBE I could take an ap t i tude test. Perhaps I'm teaching the wrong sub j ec t 9 "

"If we let every professor teach the subject he was most qualif ied for, Hig-gins, where would the university be?"

"Higgins, we're going to put you on probat ion . We are going to assign a stu-dent to tu tor you, and you will report back in two months . If you don ' t show any improvement , we ' re going to have to ask you to leave."

"THANK YOU, gent lemen, I'll prove your fai th in me. You won ' t regret i t . "

"We like your spirit , Higgins. Now let's see you measure up. Good day . "

T h e cha i rman takes out a new dossier. "Who is next? Oh, no. Not the Dean of the Law School again?"

— — Hope College anchor Page 1

STUDENT EVALUATION OF FACULTY Listed below are the results of the first

student evaluation of faculty at Hope College. The survey was by the anchor in conjunction with the Student Congress.

A TOTAL OF 679 students responded to the survey. Evaluation forms were submitted to the anchor of f ice by Resi-dent Advisors and anchor staff members on Friday, Dec. 5. The results were computed by the College computer on Monday.

Some professors were graded higher by students who are majoring or plan to major in the area in which the professor taught. However, no trend was found in the over-all results to generalize that this was true. Also, students of all class standings evaluated the teachers differ-ently, and no one class or group graded generally higher than any other.

SPECIAL ASSISTANCE in technical problems with the computer was pro-vided by students David Cook and Roger DeVries, and Dr. Richard Brockmeier, associate professor of physics. In charge of the survey for the anchor was staff member Clarke Borgeson.

in order to publish the survey with most accuracy, professors were divided into arbitrary categories. Professors who were evaluated by fewer than 10 students were not included in the list below. Professors whose names appear in bold face were graded by more than 20 stu-dents, and those whose names appear in light type were evaluated by more than 10 but fewer than 20 students. The number fol lowing the professor's name is the total number of students that evalu-ated the teacher.

EVALUATION QUESTIONS:

TO USE THE evaluation, read the number of the question at the top of each page. The numbers listed in each row are the percentage of students who provided a specific answer to that question. In some cases the total of percentages is not 100 percent because the figures were rounded off , and some students did not answer all questions.

Eight percent of the students re-plying to the survey claimed to have an over-all grade point average of 1.5 to 1.99. Students with a grade point of 2.0 to 2.49 numbered 25 percent. Thirty-five percent of the students had a grade point of 2 .5-2 .99 , and 24 per-cent replied that they had a G.P.A. of 3.0 to 3.49. The remaining eight per-cent had averages of 3 .5-4 .00.

Nolte, a play based on The Bacchae presented tonight and to-mor row night in the L i t t l e Theatre at 8.

by Brooks and Nancy Wheeler

Blessed Daddy, a c c o r d i n g to i ts a u t h o r and d i r ec to r , Dr. Char l e s Nol te , is a ' ' f r e e a d a p t a t i o n in a m o d e r n se t t i ng of t h e legend of the G o d D i o n y s u s wh ich Euri-p ides used in his play The Bacchae some 2 5 0 0 yea r s a g o . " Since we are classicists by t r ade , no t t h e a t r e crit ics, a caveat lector is q u i t e in o rde r : we ' r e fa r m o r e c o m f o r t a b l e in the wor ld of l i te rary c r i t i c i sm than in the wor ld of t he t h e a t r e .

In the Bacchae t he p r o t a g o n i s t s are the G o d Dionysus , t he l eader of a cult of w o m e n , a n d P e n t h e u s , the k ing of t he c i ty of T h e b e s . D ionysus o f f e r s his f o l l ow e r s love a n d f r e e d o m f r o m a n x i e t y : P e n t h e u s sees this " l o v e and f ree-d o m f r o m a n x i e t y " as an e x c u s e fo r sexual excess a n d a t h rea t t o the secur i ty of the c i ty ( a n y t h i n g to avoid the t e rm " l a w a n d o r d e r " ) .

DESPITE R E P E A T E D warn-

ings by the c h o r u s ( f o l l o w e r s of Dionysus ) , by t h e r e spec ted seer Teiresias, by the k ing ' s aged f a t h e r C a d m u s and even by the god.

He even tua l ly c o m e s u n d e r the spell of D i o n y s u s and is p e r s u a d e d to spy u p o n the w o m e n whi le they are p rac t i c ing the secret r i tes of the god . T h e w o m e n , led by P e n t h e u s ' m o t h e r , Agave, and driven mad by Dionysus , tear h im to pieces, and t h u s the god is v ind ica ted .

THE PLAY p r e sen t s the con-f l i c t b e t w e e n the i r ra t ional ( D i o n y s u s ) and the ra t iona l ( P e n t h e u s ) . Both are fo rces which mus t be r e spec t ed . In the Bacchae the fo l lowers of Dionysus are involved in a k i n d of spir i tual ecs tasy , un t i l P e n t h e u s t r ies to supress them.

Once suppres sed , the sp i r i tua l ecstasy begins t o show an increas-ingly des t ruc t ive side, until t he re is an o v e r w h e l m i n g desire t o des-t roy the oppresso r .

A d m i t t e d l y , t h e r e are those w h o wou ld disagree with this i n t e r p r e t a t i o n of Eur ip ides ' play. (The re seem to be as m a n y in ter-p r e t a t i o n s as the re a re cr i t ics .) Most cri t ics, howeve r , would agree tha t m a n y of the e l e m e n t s of t he play are s tr ikingly c o n t e m p o r a r y and a d a p t a b l e t o a m o d e r n set-ting.

IN NOLTE'S a d a p t a t i o n , t he p ro tagon i s t s a re Blessed Daddy , the leader of a f e m a l e religious cul t , and a local pol ice chief . Char les Lang gives a good per-f o r m a n c e as the m y s t e r i o u s Blessed D a d d y ; Domin i c De Faz io as the police chief is in the f inest t r ad i t i on of Nixon ian law and order .

They are ably s u p p o r t e d by the " s i s t e r s " of the cu l t , par t icu-larly Sister E d n a , the wife of t h e police ch ie f , p o r t r a y e d by Mary Schakel .

THE SET, IN MANY respects , r e f lec t s the Greek or igins of the play, as it is s imple a n d relatively u n c h a n g e d t h r o u g h o u t . Director Nol te also has e f fec t ive ly used the l imi ted c o n f i n e s of t he Lit t le T h e a t r e to d i a w his aud ience i n to the ac t i on of the p lay , which opens wi th a revival mee t ing led by the fo l l ower s of Blessed Daddy

and c o n t i n u e s with i ts ac t ion u n i n t e r r u p t e d to a b i t t e r conc lu-sion.

A l though this u n i n t e r r u p t e d ac t ion enables the play to bui ld to a compe l l i ng c l imax, it is some-what held back by the o p e n i n g scenes of the play. T h e revivalist a t m o s p h e r e seemed to mislead the aud ience as to the real m e a n i n g of the play, as it la ter deve loped .

IN THE OPENING scenes of the Bacchae Eur ip ides descr ibes the benef ic ia l and posi t ive side of this cul t and gradual ly deve lops conf l ic t be tween the cult and its oppresso r . In Blessed Daddy, Nol te also tries to descr ibe the posit ive side of the cul t , but leaves his aud ience w o n d e r i n g w h e t h e r he is indeed ser ious or mere ly

satirizing rel igious revivals.

The la ter scenes, however , are very s imilar t o the Eur ip id ian model . In f a c t , Nol te m a k e s direct use of m a n y of the l ines of the older play. In these later scenes, Nol te p lunges his aud iences in to t ruly Eur ip idean d rama , but per-haps w i t h o u t suf f ic ien t prepara-t ion.

DESPITE OUR u n d e r s t a n d a b l e t e n d e n c y to c o m p a r e with the Eur ip idean mode l , we e n j o y e d this c o n t e m p o r a r y i n t e r p r e t a t i o n and p r e s e n t a t i o n of t he t imeless conf l ic t b e t w e e n the ra t ional and the i r ra t iona l , be tween the mind and the e m o t i o n s .

T h e spirit of Eur ip ides is alive and well and residing in the Li t t le T h e a t r e .

A black Christmas by Red Cohen

It is n o w t h e o f f ic ia l season of the year when the p e o p l e of t he world are supposed to s t o p killing and love one a n o t h e r .

CHURCHES ALL over t he world are urging n a t i o n s to pu t d o w n thei r w e a p o n s and to em-bark on the p r eca r ious road t o peace. Even the Un i t ed S t a t e s mil i tary has agreed on a 24-hour t ruce in V i e t n a m . A n d , the race " p r o b l e m " c a n n o t be neglec ted .

One can predic t t he changes G o o d White Chr i s t i ans are going t h r o u g h to ease thei r gui l ty con-sciences for having lived still a n o t h e r year as b igots ; the c o p s will smile at black chi ldren on C h r i s t m a s Eve, the same black chi ldren they harassed the day be fo re .

THE RICH WHITE w o m a n living in a p e n t h o u s e on F i f t h Ave. will let her S40-a-week maid o f f an hou r ear ly as her " C h r i s t m a s b o n u s " . T h e usual speeches fo r racial h a r m o n y will be given by the usual " l i be ra l s " and " U n c l e T o m s " .

The whole e m p h a s i s seems to be placed on m a n jo in ing t oge the r wi th m a n , in a kind of super-U n i t e d Na t ions , t o p r o m o t e "Peace on E a r t h , G o o d w i l l t o M e n . "

BROTHERS A N D sisters of H o p e College, we real ize this pro-m o t i o n fo r wha t it is. We are the new black g e n e r a t i o n , and we aren ' t as easily deceived by t h e whi te m a n ' s o r a t o r y .

While the wh i t e e s t ab l i shmen t asks us t o put aside o u r w e a p o n s and o u r d e m a n d s , it makes sure tha t t he ho l idays w o n ' t be dis-r u p t e d by increasing the n u m b e r of po l i cemen on d u t y in the black c o m m u n i t i e s . T h i s is jus t a n o t h e r e x a m p l e t o add to the list illus-t ra t ing the d i shones ty of the whi te sys tem.

IT IS ALWAYS the black w h o must put away his a rms, while the whi te hides behind the police and the desire fo r law and o rde r .

When blacks point out this d i sc repancy , whi tes r e spond wi th the pat answers tha t still suggest tha t pa te rna l i s t i c a t t i t u d e , the at-t i t ude tha t d isgusts t he black c o m -m u n i t y . It t akes a lot to wish y o u r l and lord a merry C h r i s t m a s w h e n he w o n ' t provide heat or hot wate r .

THE ESTABLISHMENT lives up to eve ry th ing we b lacks e x p e c t of i t - b e s i d e s being d i shones t , it is hypocr i t i ca l as well. C h r i s t m a s is really i m p o r t a n t because peop le spend m o n e y and the businesses really " cash in . " T o m a k e sure no one m i s u n d e r s t a n d s , adver t i s ing assures the na t ion tha t the on ly way t o express a f f e c t i o n f o r some-one is to b u y t h e m an expens ive g i f t .

Most b lacks in th is c o u n t r y can not t ake " a d v a n t a g e " of this mater ia l i s t ic a t t i t u d e ; a n d , we c e r t a i n l y d o n ' t t rus t wh i t ey e n o u g h to believe in the human i -tar ian slogans.

WE ARE REALLY in a per fec t pos i t ion . F o r 4 0 0 years this socie ty has pushed blacks away and we have had to work wi th the s y m b o l s , C h r i s t m a s , Eas te r , l iber ty , f r e e d o m , to f o r m u l a t e o u r own mean ings ou t of t h e abst rac-t ions.

So, we, as b r o t h e r s and sisters, have the too l s t o m a k e s o m e t h i n g mean ing fu l o u t of Chr i s tmas . T h i s should be a t ime when black men and black w o m e n c o m e toge the r with pr ide and love and respec t for each o t h e r .

THIS CAN BE a symbo l i c t ime when we t ry t o gel b e n e a t h the o t h e r t r i m m i n g s of na tura ls , dashikis and mil i tant s logans and look at each individual black per-son and t ind s o m e t h i n g u n i q u e that can be b rough t o u t to help the m o v e m e n t and tha t person . Sure , we want peace and goodwi l l to d o m i n a t e o u r c o u n t r y . But , i t ' s not going to h a p p e n any t ime soon.

We, by seeking to r ea f f i rm our basic c o n c e p t s of b lackness , are r e -a f f i rming the basic con-cepts of a people that r e fused to submi t t o slavery, c a s t r a t i on , d i s c r i m i n a t i o n and of f ic ia l ly p l a n n e d i g n o r a n c e . Let t he whi te soc ie ty sing h y m n s to San ta Claus , d e p a r t m e n t s to res and Wall S t r ee t . We blacks will ce lebra te h u m a n i t y !

NCC has to have a proposal in order to discuss a question.

''I based my proposal on a 1968 statement of the Council, 'Religious Obedience and Civil Disobedience'. I wanted to know how seriously the NCC took its statement. I found that it was willing to go to the point of illegality, but would not go so far as to violate the law."

RUBINS AND senior Carol Koterski, a NCC voting dele-gate, both agreed that the impor-tance of the question was not the voting but the discussion . "Many delegates gave profoundly moving addresses," Miss Koterski said. "De Velder's speech was truly effective in expressing the views of many delegates about the issue," she stated.

Dr. Herman Ridder, president of Western Theological Seminary and delegate to the assembly, described the draft card discussion as "a very difficult time for the Council." He noted that the RCA delegates were unanimous in their support for Rubins.

RIDDER ALSO called pouring the paint on the speaker's table, "unfortunate, an emotional res-ponse." He said the incident "made Rubins look better. The a s s e m b l y was impressed by Rubins' sincerity, courtesy and humility." Ridder said the paint incident was "not a reasoned, deliberate approach in contrast to the Rubins resolution."

Ridder continued, "1 was sur-prised to learn the next day that the man who poured the painf-was a minister."

"I don't know why the man decided to pour the 'blood' on the table of NCC officials," Ridder added. "They had no voice in the voting. If that was his purpose, it would have been more appro-priate if he had spread the paint over those delegates who opposed Rubins." Ridder also compliment-

ed the NCC officials for their reaction. "They didn't flinch. It was as if they were steeled for such an incident."

RUBINS SAID the effect of the paint was to "alienate many of the delegates. It really didn't accomplish anything." He noted that York apologized for his actions the following day. The question which had the most effect on the discussion was whether or not the action would be illegal, Rubins stated. "As soon

as legal counsel said the action of accepting my draft card was possibly illegal, the assembly polarized," he added.

Following the vote, Rubins spoke with about 140 delegates and 2 0 0 other individuals who stated they would accept personal responsibility for the draft card. Rubins has remained in contact with those persons but has made no decision. He plans to speak with lawyers before taking any further action.

normally conducive to such oc-currences?"

Board member Dr. Elton Bruins said that he disapproved of the plan because it "allowed stu-dents to come into a close rela-tionship and can lead to an 'im-moral situation'." He said, "The type of privacy desired by the student is immoral."

RUSSELL DEVETTE said that it was true that "the room being used was a 'bedroom', but that he had difficulty putting it into a moral concept."

Marshall Anstandig said that the room to be used was not considered by the student to be only a bedroom. It was also con-sidered to be a living room and study room.

HE ADDED THAT it was not "our intention to take girls up into a bedroom, but it was our intention to talk." He added that Arkie open houses had often led to intellectual discussions by the students.

Dr. Vandervelde said that the privacy of the roommate "must be worked on."

John Boonstra said that as a Resident Advisor in Kollen Hall he saw a need for the intervisita-tion policy.

HE STATED THAT the room-mate problem may not be such a big problem as it appears. Accord-ing to the proposal, each wing will agree on the hours to have an inter-visitation policy in effect. He said that the policy would be a good experience for the room-mates in learning to get along with one another.

Jerry May also reported on conversations held with college officials at schools which have open housing policies.

The Dean at Kalamazoo said that the only major problem with the policy had been with room-mates.

AT ALMA College, the inter-visitation policy is determined by each residence hall. The policy has been in effect for four or five years, but only men's dorms have used the policy. The Dean of Alma said that the school does not make "big to-do's about it."

I t 's a b o u t an ugly th ing . I t ' s about an ugly th ing tha t is re-sponsible f o r the presen t cond i -tion of the V i e t n a m War. It is t h e d r a f t , t he p r e c u r s o r , t he progeni -tor and the fue l of this vile war and possibly will be f o r o t h e r s .

BUT W H A T IS W A R ? War is a s i t ua t i on w h e r e y o u ' v e

got th is sk inny kid wi th glasses sit t ing in a fox hole , pissing in his pan t s because he ' s a f r a id of get-ting ki l led. T h a t ' s r e a s o n a b l e , he deserves to piss in his p a n t s and deserves even m o r e so because he feels t h e r e ' s no poin t in h im be ing the re (as wi th the V i e t n a m war ) . Now y o u d o n ' t k n o w th is k id , so what t he hell , read his n a m e off in Wash ing ton - you ' l l feel b e t t e r .

But you d o k n o w s o m e o n e , l i e ' s y o u r e x - r o o m m a t e or y o u r b o y f r i e n d , and he wr i tes f r i g n t e n -ingly vivid l e t t e r s h o m e to you on occas ion . Or m a y b e he ' s y o u and then he ' s really sca red .

H E ' S S C A R E D because he d o e s n ' t k n o w why he s h o u l d kill s o m e o n e , a n o t h e r h u m a n be ing he d o e s n ' t k n o w , or h a t e , and t h e wai t ing gets h i m . What he is wait-ing for is a bu l le t t o e n t e r his sk in , rip a gap ing ho le in his side and mash his gu ts u p so tha t his insides be lch all ove r t h e g r o u n d . Then he' l l vomi t b l o o d fo r a long t ime and cry b e c a u s e he d o e s n ' t u n d e r s t a n d what t h e j o k e was all a b o u t . T h e n he'll qu i t t h e scene . T h a t ' s war .

T h e t ra ins are packed with the l ivestock and sh ipped off t o the s laughte r house .

IT JUST D O E S N ' T make sense. If it d o e s make sense t o y o u , let it be exp la ined why it s h o u l d n ' t . If y o u are of a logical mind , you k n o w that if a person d o e s n ' t want t o d o some th ing , he

w o n ' t unless he ' s fo rced to . If f o r c e is used , he isn ' t f ree , which he should be by d e f i n i t i o n it he cons iders himself t o be a h u m a n being.

If you are of a n o t h e r mind and are a Chris t ian w h o believes in ( i o d and love, then you k n o w that you are not supposed to kill and h a t e , which is, in fac t , what the a r m e d fo rces teach you to do. Or if y o u are a h u m a n i t a r i a n , you love people and life and d o n ' t want to des t roy e i the r , because any m a n ' s dea th is a part of you .

IF PEOPLE W E R E to consider these incongrui t ies , the s i tua t ion of the V i e t n a m war as it now s t a n d s wou ld not exist t o d a y . Had admiss ion to the a rmed forces been a vo lun t a ry event , there wou ld not be any Amer ican in-vo lvement in the Vie tnam war n o w .

Bilyeu, Dobbin to play in Jan. 6 senior recital

It is good and decen t to protes t the V i e t n a m war and m o u r n the e x p e n d e d dead . I t ' s good to be-lieve we should not be the re , but that is not the th ing . T h e thing is that Amer ica c a n n o t be involved in a n o t h e r Vie tnam if the d ra f t sys tem is e l imina ted . Wi thout t r o o p s the re can be no unneces-sary invo lvement , no imper ia l is t ic endeavor s , no s laughter of y o u n g Amer i can men.

WHEN YOU ACCEPT being d r a f t e d , you are man i fe s t ing you r approva l , no m a t t e r how si lent ly, of a q u e s t i o n a b l e e thical s i tua t ion . If you go into the a rmed services, you are casting assent to the imperia l is t ic e f f o r t s of the Uni ted States . If the d ra f t is a m o r e viable o p t i o n t h a n jail, t hen you d o n ' t believe in peace and love, you must believe in ha te and killing, because soldiers are taught to do jus t t h a t .

If t he Vie tnam war is a deplor-able s i tua t ion in y o u r eyes and

you want t o prevent o t h e r wars, now is you r o p p o r t u n i t y . Con-scient iously o b j e c t , n o w , only moral g rounds are n e e d e d , or s imply i n fo rm your d ra f t board that you w o n ' t go. And d o n ' t !

T H E R E IS AN inequi ty in the United Sta tes , and if this is the genera t ion to herald change , to correc t the inequi t ies , t o want peace, then do some th ing about it, now. By the ac t ions of each individual , by one man at a t ime act ing, if enough men par t i c ipa te , the sys tem can be changed . If this means wri t ing le t ters and tele-grams to Congress , march ing and p ro tes t ing or even going to jail , do you r o w n par t .

If p ro tes t and jail still doesn ' t make sense and if to you the d ra f t is be t t e r left a lone , imagine what war must be like for the b o y who is the re , ( i o h o m e , take a beer can and bend it unt i l it b reaks , now take the jagged edge and twist it hard , very hard in to you r s t o m a c h until you do u n d e r s t a n d .

Knights squeeze by Dutch, 91-89, in overtime by Pete Struck

anchor Reporter

As e x p e c t e d , t h e Hope Dutchmen and Calvin Knights put on qui te a basketball exibi-tion Wednesday night. But it was the Calvin fans who did the cheering when it was all over as the Knights beat Hope, 91-89, in over t ime.

THE GAME was the first Michigan Intercollegiate Athlet ic Associat ion contest fo r both teams this season. T h e Dutch are now 1-2 for the year and the Knights even at 1-1.

It was also the first t ime Cal-vin has been able to beat Hope at the Civic Center since the 1963-64 season.

Calvin got off to a quick start as they opened up a 7-1 lead af te r two-and-a-half minutes of play. The Du tchmen came back quickly, though, and with a three-point play by Dan Shinabarger cut that lead to 9-8.

THEN WITH 11:50 remaining in the first half. Ken Hendrix scored lo tie the game at 16 all. The Knights got hot again and reeled off eight straight points. With 6 :45 left in the half, Cal-vin enjoyed a 10-point lead, 32-22.

The Dutch did manage to cut that lead to just fou r points , 42-38, before the end of the half as Marty Snoap hit for two with 50 seconds remaining and Calvin's one-shot a t t emp t failed.

Calvin quickly enlarged i t ' s lead in the second half as all-MIAA guard Mike Phelps scored four straight points.

TOM DYKSTRA b rought the Dutch back to within three . 52-49, before Calvin took off on ano ther scoring spree. The Hope fans even grew quie t for a few fleeting seconds when they saw Calvin lead, 62-5 2.

But all loyal Hope fans re-membered last year when the fourth-place Dutchmen upset the mighty Knights. "Never say d i e "

was the cry as the c rowd ' s cheers spurred the Dutch on.

A n d did those Du tchmen ever succeed! The Calvin lead was cut to first eight points , then six, and five, and finally to three as Shinabarger scored on a fast break to make the score 75-72 with 3 :50 remaining.

HOPE HAD CALVIN running scared and they knew it. Bill Van Dyke had fouled out early in the half , Del Willink had just left the game with five personals against him, and Ld Wiers was in big t rouble with four fouls on him. And as if that wasn' t enough, Shinabarger gave Coach Donald Vroon more to worry about when he cut the Knight lead to just one point on a pair of free th rows with 1:35 to play.

Then with just 40 seconds showing on the clock, T o m Dykstra hit Marty Snoap with a pass which Marty laid up and in to put Hope ahead, 80-79, for the first t ime in the game.

THEN HOPE, realizing that Calvin was still not in the one-and-one s i tuat ion, fouled Phelps to get possession of the ball. The maneuver worked as Phelps hit the chari ty shot and Hope got the ball out of bounds with the score tied 80 all.

Shinabarger took the shot with about 16 seconds left and missed. The Knights rebounded and brought the ball d o w n court but Phelps ' shot wasn' t any good either.

T h e Dutch now had the ball out of bounds with only three seconds remaining. Shinabarger passed the ball in to Hendr ix , but his 35 foot a t t emp t was off the rim. So the already frenzied crowd braced themselves fo r a f ive-minute over t ime period.

T H E KNIGHTS control led the opening tip of the over t ime, and that appeared to be all the advantage they needed. First Wiers scored a field goal for Calvin, but Marty Snoap tied it up again with a two-pointer for the Dutch .

Dutchmen romp over

Concordia Comets, 117-70 Hope College downed Concor-

dia Teachers College of River For-est, 111., 1 17-70, in the tirst Dutch-men home game of the 69-70 sea-son.

Hope led at the half, 55-47, but broke the game wide open early in the third per iod.Hope utilized the fast break whenever possible. In one stretch, the Du tchmen scored 1 2 poin ts in succession.

Freshman Dana Snoap led the Hope at tack with 19 points , and was the leading i rebounder with

14. S o p h o m o r e s Ken Hendrix and Dan Shinabarger each scored 18 points . Marty Snoap scored 17.

Woody Kraemer led Concordia with 12 points , while Dave Heiden scored 1 1. Several Concordia play-ers fouled out .

With 1 1 minu tes to go in the game, Coach Russ DeVet te cleared the Hope bench , giving all team m e m b e r s playing time. All but one Dutchman scored in the Hope win.

S n o a p a n d Wiers traded baskets again before Dave Gos-selar put Hope ahead, 85-84, with a free throw. The baskets cont inued t o go back and for th . First Wiers, then Shinabarger, then Wiers again, and Calvin led, 88-87, with 1:10 remaining.

Shinabarger was fouled , but he failed to convert on the one-and-one si tuat ion and it ap-peared Calvin would be conten t to stall out the clock.

THE ONLY CHANCE Hope had was t o commi t a foul , so they did. It was against Mike DeKuiper , who proceeded to sink the shot , and Calvin led by two.

Hope failed on their next op-por tuni ty to score, and af ter two free th rows by Phelps and a last second basket by Shin-abarger it was all over.

Wiers was high scorer for bo th teams with 31 points. Phelps and Doug Taa t jes scored 20 and 14 points respectively to aid the winner 's cause.

HENDRIX LED the Dutch w i t h 2 2 tallies. Shinabarger cashed in for 21 and Gosselar 20. Marty Snoap scored 12.

Hope 's next game will be against Spring Arbor t omor row night at Spring Arbor . Last year the Dutch defea ted the Cougars, 1 1 1-84.

Lose to Valparaiso

Grapplers tie Calvin, 21-21 The Hope College wrestling

team opened its season last Friday at Calvin College and tied the Knights for the second straight t ime. Tuesday the Dutch lost to Valparaiso 23-17 in Carnegie Gymnas ium.

At Calvin the grapplers got off to a s trong start in the lower weight classes and built to build a 21-11 lead with on ly two matches remaining. However , Kurt Loosen-ort wrestling for Hope at 190 pounds and Jim DeHorn, Hope ' s heavyweight were both pinned to give Calvin the tie.

Freshman Rick Vander l ind, 134, was part icularly impressive against Calvin, pinning his oppon-ent in t w o minu tes and 47 seconds. Both Rick Hine, 142, and Karl Nadolsky , 158, won deci-sions against Calvin. Calvin for-feited in the 118 and 177 pound weight classes.

In the match against Valparai-so, Hope again was s t rong in the lower weight classes. Hope and Valparaiso exchanged fo r fe i t s in the 117 and 126 pound weight classes. Hope , however , then won the next four matches, with Hine, 134, Karl Nadolsky, and Rocky Ingalls, 167, winning decisions, and Mike Dornan , 150, pinning his o p p o n e n t . Hope wrestlers lost the last three matches. Gregg Steenbergen , 177, lost by deci-sion, and Loosenort and DeHorn were bo th pinned.

The D u t c h m e n face a s t rong Grand Rapids Junior College team t o m o r r o w at 2 p.m. in Carnegie G y m n a s i u m . This is the last meet before Chr is tmas vacat ion.

Coach George Kraf t stated that he has been very pleased with each wrest ler 's pe r fo rmance . He ant icipates , however, that with the loss of le t termen Dave van

Pamelan, Keith van Tubergan and T o m Vickrey, his team will do no bet ter than third in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athlet ic Confer-ence this season.

Sears Foundation donates $1,800 to Hope College

Hope College has been awarded a $1 ,800 grant by the Sears-Roe-buck F o u n d a t i o n as part of its program t o assist privately-sup-por ted colleges and universities.

Norman R. Hield, local repre-sentative of the Founda t i on , pre-sented an unres t r ic ted grant of $1 ,300 to College President Calvin VanderWerf and a second grant of $500 to librarian Fdward Whit-taker as a supp lement to the book acquisi t ion budget .

A second-guess by Bob Vanderberg

A BIG STRETCH-Freshman Dave Gosselar (50 ) lays one up to add to his total of 2 0 points.

All c o a c h e s hate second-g u e s s e r s . Tha t ' s because the coach realizes he has only one guess. T h e second-guesser gets more than one. And the coach gets ticked if some wise guy knocks him when he makes the wrong guess.

1 AM A second-guesser. Con-s e q u e n t l y , coaches Vanderbi l t and Siedentop may not be too pleased with me for what 1 am now going to say.

Before I go on my second-guessing binge, t hough , 1 would like to point ou t that coaches Vanderbi l t and S ieden top did a creditable job replacing Russ DeVette . They kept the team fired up even when Calvin led by as many as ten poin ts in the second half .

But I think Hope still could have, and should have, won the game. A lack of good j udgmen t on the part of the coaches and/ or the players, however , pre-vented a victory.

W I T H 31 S E C O N D S re-maining in regulat ion play, Cal-vin's star senior guard , Mickey Phelps, d ropped in a f ree th row to tic t h e game at 80-80. Hope called a t ime-out . I d o n ' t know

what went on during that time-out discussion. All 1 know is that once the D u t c h m e n put the ball in play, they d idn ' t make very good use of the clocks.

The ball went to Dan Shin-abarger, who has to be one of the ou t s t and ing shooters in the league. Shinny let fly f rom the corner , but there were still 15 seconds left when he shot the ball. Fven if he had made the shot, which he did not , Calvin would have had ample t ime to set up for a game-tying shot . Did Shinabarger shoot too soon?

THEN, WITH A ha l f -minute left to play in the over t ime ses-sion, Knight guard Mike De-Kuiper sank a free th row to give the visitors an 89-87 lead.

T h e Du tchmen brought the ball in and T o m Dyks t ra drib-bled across the ten-second line, but no o n e - p l a y e r or c o a c h -made a move to call t ime-out , which would seem to have been a logical thing to d o in such a spot .

FROM MY SEAT in the stands, I tried frantically to call time-out, but my effort went for naught. Dykstra passed to Marty Snoap, who turned and shot a I2-footer which fell

short . Calvin r ebounded , and that was the ball game.

I'll never know why nobody called t ime-out . Who knows? The Dutch might have been able to set up a play and score the tying points , thus sending the contest in to double overt ime. Despite losing the game, the Du tchmen looked like the solid club they are expected to be this season. Ken Hendr ix , per-forming on a bad ankle, played his heart ou t under the boards, leaping for r ebounds in a style reminiscent of Floyd Brady.

S H I N A B A R G E R connected o f t en f rom outs ide , and fresh-man Dave Gosselar scored well in close. Dykstra had some beaut i fu l assists, and both Snoap bro thers played well. It is un-fo r tuna t e that these fine e f fo r t s had to be wasted in defeat .

But that is all in the past. There are still 11 conference games left for both Hope and Calvin, and anything can and may happen. By the way, mark down February 11 on your cal-endar and keep that date in mind. Hope gets another crack at Calvin on that date, and there's some evening up to be done.
