MILESTONES
Stones are the symbols of Permanence.
Eternity has been typified in Stone; Time has been defied by it.
Basalt and Granite have outlived men and epochs and ages.
Life in its simpler forms has clung to rock-ribbed mountains as if to secure to itself Perpetuity.
Death, too, has claimed Marble for its Mausoleum that it might hold its place and position unchallenged.
Temple Block and Hearth-stone Slab and Funeral Shaft tell the infant's primal cry, youth's passionate bliss a n d the shadowed anguish of age.
Milestones are the memorials of indomitable Mind.
Aspiration, Achievement, Advancement,—these are the records the Milestone plants deep-bedded in the onward course of the Pioneer.
To all other Stones Humanity turns its face, lifts its eye, voices a requiem for the known. To the Milestone—graven only on its hither-side, if any mark there be,—Mankind turns its back, looks for no promise, gives no hostage of dependent faith.
Each Stone beside,—be it veined with the blue of the azure or the red of life's pulsing blood; be it flecked with the flash of the diamond or light-starred like the blackness of night—stands sentinel of Life's twilight Peace.
The MILESTONE, untraced by the fancies of Nature's vagrant dreams and uncut by the savage flint or artist skill, dares the eastern dawn and challenges' the coming Day.
MILESTONES are the Soul's answer to the Unknown, her response to Futurity, and for her, will ever ab ide The Symbol of the Trek.
—Edward D. Dimnent

Class of 1941
"Oh, yet we trust that somehow good Will be the final goal of ill, To pangs of nature, sins of will, Defects of doubt, and taints of blood;
"'That nothing walks with aimless feet; That not one life shall be destroyed, Or cast a s rubbish to the void. When God hath made the pile complete."

DEDICATION

May his ideals of teamwork, clean sportsmanship, and fair play charac-terize a n d animate all the milestones in our lives.

HOPE COLLEGE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
This revered body of men is elected a n d appointed by the various churches a n d classes which sponsor the interests of Hope College. It is their duty and their trust to direct the policies a n d needs of the institution during their term of office. Their meetings occur in April a n d in June. Their aims are set forth admirably in the following excerpt from the Foreword to the College Bulletin of February, 1930:
"A special value a t taches to the small college of this type that insures its per-manence among the educat ional institutions of the land. . . . We mean a college that does not aspire to do the work of a university, that is not ambi-tious to number its studentry by thousands, but sets its own bonds and limi-tations, and places emphasis upon the quality rather than upon the quanti ty of the work it under takes to do, a college that has a definite aim and purpose a n d adheres to it sacredly, no matter how alluring the present-day temptations may be to b roaden its scope and exploit the whole field of study and research.
"There a re such institutions, fortunately, and they will a lways be in demand. There a re parents everywhere who will still select such schools for their sons a n d daughters in preference to the popular educat ional centers."

STUDENT COUNCIL
The Student Council greatly increased its usefulness by affording a more in-clusive student representation. Representation was based on literary societies rather than classes. This enlarged the group from nine to fifteen members.
Headed by Senior Andrew Vollink, the Student Council investigated campus problems and supervised several college affairs. It started off with a success-ful All-College Mixer. Other college functions included the Frosh-Soph con-tests, the Freshmen trial. Homecoming, the Frosh-Soph girls contest for the Nykerk cup, pep meetings, an interesting Get-Acquainted and Dutch Treat week, a campaign to increase the college library, and an All-College day climaxing in an All-college banquet .

BLUE KEY
Blue Key is a national honor fraternity, composed locally of Hope Senior men, selected for their high s tandards of scholarship and active participation and interest in campus affairs. Its basic purpose is service to its Alma Mater and her student body.
As evidence of this fact, Blue Key aga in conducted its Book Store in Van Raalte Hall, published a series of the most elaborate football programs to be found in any M.I.A.A. school, prepared the Student Guide, put out a basketball pro-gram for the final Hope-Kazoo contest, and provided for the installation of an indirect lighting system in the trophy case in Graves Hall.
At their monthly dinners these representative campus men discussed college problems openly with their faculty advisers, thus providing for a better under-standing between students and faculty. Meetings during the past year were held at the various fraternity houses in rotation, and uniformly excellent meals were served. Hope is the only small college in Michigan which can boast of a Blue Key Chapter.

ALCOR
Alcor, Senior Girls' Honorary Society, has completed its first year of existence on the campus of Hope College. In the spring of the year 1937, the society w a s conceived of a n d organized by the Senior Girls' Association. At that time eleven girls, chosen for qualities of scholarship, leadership, a n d service, were elected from the Junior class to become the charter members of the new society. In the fall of that year the society chose a name, Alcor Honor Sorority, a n d elected four new members to fill out the quota.
Alcor is primarily a n honorary group, but it does not plan to be a static organ-ization. Its activities for this first year were limted because getting started involved much organizing a n d planning. Among its activities have been the successful souvenir selling project at our Homecoming in November, a n d a formal dinner in December held in honor of new members.
The objective that will b e kept before the sorority is that of becoming a part of Mortar Board, which is a national honor sorority. Until that is realized, Alcor .shall be a unique organization with its own constitution a n d s tandards.

ADDISON
"Fidelity, Culture, Leadership"—Fidelity that perseveres to the end, no matter how rugged the road; Culture that makes associations pleasant and profitable; Leadership with vision and service in all fields of endeavor;—with this three-fold motto, Hope's youngest literary society has completed another year of mutual fellowship and truly literary enjoyment.
Addison has not overlooked social development in its program, as is evident from its fall and spring parties and its alumni banquet at Homecoming. In campus sports men of the purple and white were also represented; in fact, its members have participated in almost every campus activity. Addison aims for the development of well-rounded individuals—whole mentally, physically, and spiritually. It aims to develop true and worthy representatives of Hope. Looking toward the achievement of our goal, we constantly keep before us the words of Joseph Addison, whose name we proudly perpetuate:
"If you wish to succeed in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experi-ence your wise counselor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius."

ALETHEA
Once aga in the Aletheans resumed their year of activities with the annua l s lumber party held at the cottage of one of the members. Plans were here dis-cussed for the coming year , a n d many exciting activities were proposed.
At Thanksgiving time a tea w a s held, a n d in December the annua l Christmas breakfast w a s given at the Copper Lantern. At the winter party during Janu-ary the girls traveled with their guests to enjoy a n evening of fun a n d jollity in "Toyland". The social ca lendar would be incomplete without a Mother's Day Tea given in honor of the girls' mothers, a n d later a spring bangue t to
wind u p the events of the year.
Included in the programs of the regular meetings, the Aletheans enjoyed pot-lucks, teas, and informal gather ings at the homes of members. Thus happy friendships were continued for another year.

COSMOPOLITAN
Phi Kappa Alpha—the watchwords of Cosmopolitan have aga in led the way through another successful school year. Since its founding forty-eight years a g o Cosmopolitan has been salient in all phases of college life. This year, as in others, the incentive which inspired the charter members of Cosmopolitan has aga in driven Phi Kappa Alpha to a dominant position in all campus activities.
Considering social development a s second only to scholarship, Cosmos ini-tiated the social season with open-house after the Junior College-Hope football game. This was followed by the Cosmos stag dinner, fall party, and joint meetings with the Delphian and Fraternal societies. The annual spring party climaxed this phase of Cosmos life.
Looking back at another successful year. Cosmopolitan is proud to close the 1937-38 chapter of its prominent history.

EMERSONIAN As history claims another year, Phi Tau Nu celebrates its advent to Hope's campus two decades ago. In that short time Emersonian has arisen to promi-nence among older brother societies. Located on one of Holland's finest estates, the fraternity enjoys the vitality and vigor of youth. Spirited in social life, Emersonians demonstrated their virility in more creative channels also. In forensics, music, religious activity, and scholastics Emersonians led the way.
Following the fall rushing period, twenty-two outstanding Hopeites were accepted and initiated into the Order of Emerson. Then came numerous ban-guets, pleasant parties, joint meetings with sororities, and a unigue spring open house, all contributing to make the Emersonian House a center of colle-giate social life.
Though the memories of other achievements fade, '"still shineth the light through our memories' haze of our friendships that ever abide".

DORIAN
Years hence, the Dorians will repaint this successful a n d happy year of 1938: the breakfasts at the Warm Friend Tavern, the Alumnae banque t at which Miss Boyd, the founder, spoke of her European trip, the Thanksgiving tea, and the "Last Night Aboard Ship" at the winter banquet .
The memory of the Senior play. Junior band, and Sophomore puppet show, when the Freshmen girls were entertained, will recall hours of toil a n d fun. Their minds will retrace the intensive rushing, the Fair at the Literary Club, a n d the excitement of pledging sixteen new Dorians, later known as Dorian cowboys. They will remember the joint meeting with the Emersonians a n d also the spring banquet . A fleeting picture of the Dorian room with its new maple set and comfortable folding chairs will make them recall with joy a n d tenderness the pleasant friendships formed under the lavender a n d gold.

FRATERNAL For one hundred and four years, established at Union College of Schenectady, New York, Fraternal has been among the leaders and during the past year the banner of the purple and gold has carried on. The cardinal virtues of Friendship, Love, and Truth have lived on, being borne by men outstanding in athletics, forensics, scholarship and other activities. In its eleventh decade of existence Fraternal is still making its name known far and wide by the cali-bre of its members.
During the collegiate year of 1938 Fraternal has kept its place by its shining work. In its winning Homecoming house decorations prizes, in its winning honors at the All-College Carnival, and in its winning of the Interfraternity Basketball Championship, and by its social activities. Fraternal has proven that it can and will march ever onward, a lways an integral part of Hope College.

KNICKERBOCKER "Shout a shout, all ye Knicks, like a clarion call"—for the results of Knicker-bocker endure, and live forever. That shout resounds with a repetition of moral, social, and of intellectual attainment. It reverberates from the pages of Knickerbocker history. The "ruby and the black 'neath the orange and the blue" has never faltered on the march toward successful achievements.
Another chapter of laudable accomplishments is added to Knickerbocker his-tory at the termination of this year. The opening triumph was the acceptance of a very select group of pledges, in accordance with the qualifications of the Knickerbocker triangle, in order that posterity will continue to uphold the high ideals a n d traditions that a re precious to every member. For social prestige there were the annual fall and spring banque ts and a number of stags.
Every member can be justly proud, for at the turn of a quarter of a century of development, Knickerbocker stands unequaled.

SIBYLLINE
Sibylline comes to the close of another highly successful year, during which thirteen new members were admit ted into the fellowship of the sorority. True to the ideals which have been its bas ic determinants since the founding of the chapter in 1919—the ideals of love a n d loyalty, of sincerity a n d truth—the sorority has steadily progressed.
"Orchestral Imitations" w a s the theme of our mid-winter party, which featured unique decorations, scintillating costumes, a n d an excellent, inimitable pro-gram. A delightful St. Patrick's Day party w a s the highlight of the month of March. The climax to the events of our social ca lendar w a s the spring banquet .
Active in college affairs, holding a high scholastic record. Sibylline looks for-ward to the future regretting only the loss of her Senior members who have been a definite asset to the sorority a n d to the campus. With her goal firmly established, she strives "to keep the body strong, the mind pure, the spirit
right".

Y. W. C. A. Starting the year with an enjoyable beach party for the Freshmen, the Y.W.C.A. has had another successful year. The meetings have been varied, and such interesting speakers a s Mrs. De Free of China, Mrs. De Valois of India, and Dr. Marjorie Drury of Grand Rapids were heard.
The Y.W. packed a Christmas box and sent it to Dulce, New Mexico, where a Hope g radua te is working. The Girls' Basketball League and other sports activities were continued during the year.
In cooperation with the Y.M.C.A. the Y.W. sponsored a very successful Week of Frayer under the direction of Dr. Frederick Zimmerman. Together they also brought to the campus other exceptional speakers, as Hon. Richard Gregg and Dr. Samuel Grafln.
The outstanding event of the year was the resuming of the missionary project after a lapse of several years. Due to the help of Mrs. A. De Young, Dr. Mylrea, and Dr. Shafer, who were the speakers, the campaign yielded over five hun-dred dollars towards the support of Dr. John Van Ess and his Basrah Boys' School in Arabia.
Meetings were held every Tuesday night and much inspiration and benefit was derived from them. The "Y" is anticipating another year of active prog-ress on the campus.

Y. M. C. A.
The 1937-1938 term of the Y.M.C.A. w a s eminently successful; the customarily excellent program of the association saw innovations during the year which will s tand out in "Y" history on Hope's campus.
Introducing itself to new students a n d renewing its acqua in tance with return-ing students by means of the "Y-Fore" the union's work b e g a n briskly a n d continued with the traditional b e a c h party for newcomers on the campus. Throughout the year a high s tandard w a s mainta ined in the weekly meetings; the roster of speakers who addressed the g roup included such names a s Dr. Frederick Zimmerman, Dr. Samuel Graflin, a n d many of prominence from both Grand Rapids a n d Holland. Dr. Zimmerman s tayed on the campus for the guidance of the inspirational a n d successful Week of Prayer, which centered about the theme, "Religion a s a Way of Life."
The biggest event in the "Y" year w a s the renovation of the missions drive among students, which the association union sponsored. An energetic a n d well directed campaign, climaxed by a pledging drive during a special chapel service, brought in more than five hundred dollars in p ledges to the Basrah Boys' School in Arabia.

CHRISTIAN WORKERS' LEAGUE
The Christian Workers' League, an organization of students who, interested in Christian work, definitely plan to enter either part or full time service for their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, has experienced its most active year of service since its inception in 1934. The great increase in membership and loyal attend-ance of the members, combined with the religious zeal and fervor of the group has enabled the League to do its part in the advancement and extension of the kingdom of our Christ. The majority of League members are actively engaged in teaching Sunday School, in Christian Endeavor leadership, in conducting prayer meetings and church services, and in personal witnessing for Christ. A Calvin-Hope Joint Conference was held at Holland, December 11 a n d 12, at which a large Calvin delegation was entertained and inspired by several highly esteemed clergymen.
The League meets every Friday afternoon in its room in the Memorial Chapel. The meetings are opened by a devotional period, after which a minister or a missionary speaks with the purpose of preparing students for Christian work.

CHAPEL CHOIR
1938 completes the eighth year of the musical activity of the Chapel Choir, a year in which new ideas were inaugurated. For the first time, academic credit w a s given for membership in the organization, and rehearsals were at tended as classes. Prof. Osborne, director of the Choir, included more than singing in the schedule. Each student in the group received a baton, and the fundamen-tals of directing a chorus were taught. Opportunities to direct were offered, and students regularly conducted the responses in the daily chapel service.
On December 14 the Choral Union, which includes the Chapel Choir, once aga in presented Handel 's Messiah. Four prominent soloists were secured, and members of the Kalamazoo Symphony supplemented the Holland Civic Orchestra. The performance of the oratorio was under the direction of Ken-neth Osborne, and w a s a successful celebration of the Christmas season.
Several times during the year the Choir was heard in Chapel in special music. A spring recital was presented at a Sunday afternoon vesper service on March 4, and Senior students were the directors for the occasion.
Permanent accomplishments in a tangible form were seen in the new music bought this year. The singers have included Negro spirituals, Russian litur-gical numbers, and classic songs in their repertoire.

HOPE COLLEGE BAND
During this year the b a n d has maintained Hope's h igh musical reputation by-reaching its goal—"The Greater Hope Band of 1937-38 Through the per-sistent a n d untiring efforts of both b a n d members a n d directors Hope's b a n d has become "the best b a n d in the M.l.A.A. This w a s evidenced by all who heard the fine production at the Hope-Kazoo playoff. Hope s b a n d w a s classed in a large Michigan newspape r a s "one of the outs tanding college musical organizations in this part of the state".
This year the climax w a s reached when forty beaut iful new b a n d uniforms were purchased. In colorful a r ray the b a n d p layed at all home games of foot-ball a n d basketball . The b a n d rendered concerts in Coopersville and Grand Rapids a n d marched in the Tulip Time parade . The b a n d also p layed for all school functions. Much praise a n d many favorable comments have been received this year by students, faculty, alumni, townspeople, a n d spectators
at the athletic games.
Practices were held each Monday a n d Thursday in the Hope High School building. Much of the success of this year ' s b a n d is due to the hard labor of Mr. Daniel J. Zwemer as Bandmaster. "Don's" friendly att i tude toward the members a n d his interest a n d enthusiasm during the year has kept Hope s b a n d "on top". Much praise must be given to "our director", Cornelius J. Steketee, who worked many long hours a s b a n d president. Our conductor, "Cornie", wielded his ba ton like a professional. One of the best college news-papers , in a n editorial, stated that "Hope's b a n d director is outstanding and talented beyond other college b a n d directors".

WOMEN'S GLEE CLUB
The Hope College Women's Glee Club enjoyed a pleasant and busy year. The Club did not go on an extended trip this season, but confined its concert appea rances to cities in this community. A concert was given for a joint meet-ing of all the Christian Endeavor societies in Grand Rapids, and the club also presented a program at a Grand Rapids church. Concerts were also rendered in other nearby cities, and the usual appea rances in Holland were made.
Mrs. Grace Dudley Fenton, who has directed the Glee Club for many years, aga in successfully headed the group this year. The work done was of the usual high guality which has a lways characterized the Hope College Women's Glee Club. The club will miss its senior voices next year, but hopes for a very successful season in 1938-39.

MEN'S GLEE CLUB
The Men's Glee Club under the leadership of Professor Kenneth Osborne can look back on a very active year , a year in which it has figured largely in the musical life of the college.
The group of eighteen men presented concerts in Allegan, Kalamazoo, a n d Grand Rapids during the winter months. On March 25, the Club left on a two-week tour through the East, accompanied by Prof. E. P. McLean.

PI KAPPA DELTA
The Michigan G a m m a chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, a national honor society for the promotion of forensic activities, has experienced an eventful year in debate , oratory, extempore speaking, and interpretative reading.
Hope's chapter has the distinction of taking in more members in the year 1937-38 than any other chapter in the national organization.
The year 's activities have been interesting and varied. The regular monthly meetings included guest speakers, orations, and dramatics. As in the past w e sponsored a high school deba te tournament. This year Hope College had the privilege of being host to the State Interpretative Reading Contest.

WOMEN'S INTERPRETATIVE READER
Lucille Buter
Interpretative reading aga in held a deserving place in the college forensics this year . The students por t rayed a hear ty interest in this dramat ic activity, va luable for its development of appreciat ion in spoken verse. Miss Lucille Buter, reading "In a n Atelier" a n d "Hill Hunger", in her own capab le manner represented the college in the poetry division of the state contest. In the spot prose contest, Nina Fopma ably showed her skill at reading unfamiliar mate-rial. Hope College w a s host to the state contest this year, entertaining twelve schools on the campus May thirteenth.
"Abraham, the Man of the People," a n d "Doors" were read in a most com-mendab le manner by the local victor. Dean Dykstra, at the State Interpretative Reading Contest held on the campus May thirteenth. Robert Bonthius a d d e d interest to the spot prose contest by his effective reading of the "spot" assign-ment. An interesting feature of the contest w a s the evening Festival at which the contestants effectively entertained the audience with good reading of poetry for its own sake. That, after all, is the purpose of this type of forensic activity.
At the local contest held in November, Miss Alma Nyland w a s chosen to repre-sent Hope in the field of extempore speaking. Miss Nyland repea ted her honor of last year; thus for the second year she competed in the Michigan Inter-collegiate Speech League Contest. This year the contest w a s held at Albion College November twenty-third. The general topic w a s "The Spanish Situa-tion", a n d Miss Nyland aga in bore high the n a m e of Hope by winning fourth place in the final contest.
Constantly increasing interest has been shown in this type of public speech Its appeal , no doubt, lies in its call for quick and clear thinking while speaking. His ability, a s that of the woman extempore speaker, is not confined only to this type of speech; for he is an excellent deba te r a s well. In the finals Mr. Miles received fourth place, speaking on a subject concerning "The Far East-ern Situation".

WOMEN'S DEBATE
This season four affirmative and three negative teams deba ted on the inter-coiiegiate question, "Resoived: that the National Labor Relations Board should be empowered to enforce arbitration in all industrial disputes." Again the women's squad was fortunate in being coached by Professor De Graaf, with Eunice Sluyter a s its manager .
The women took part in their first intercollegiate debat ing when they enter-tained Western State Teacher's College from Kalamazoo in two rounds of practice debates . Between deba tes the girls were hostesses at a tea given at Voorhees Hall.
On February 4 Calvin College held an invitational tournament for practice deba tes with neighboring colleges, in which Hope was happy to participate. The State Debate Tournament was held at Western State Teachers' College on February 19. Hope won six deba tes a n d lost eight, and emerged in fourth place in the tournament in which seven schools participated.
The squad was honored to have the opportunity of debat ing two women s teams from Northwestern University, as the latter were enroute to the East, where they were scheduled for several debates. They, with their coach, were our guests on the twenty-fifth of April.
At the end of the season Professor and, Mrs. De Graaf entertained at their home for all the women debaters.

MEN'S DEBATE
Men's d e b a t e had another highly successful season at Hope this year. In November, the men's manager , with the assis tance of other Pi Kappa Deltians, s taged the biggest high school tournament yet held on the campus, nearly one hundred visitors taking part. In January, the men put on a tournament of their own on the college question, "Resolved: that the National Labor Relations Board should be empowered to enforce the arbitration of all industrial dis-putes." Seven visiting colleges sent thirty-six teams, Hope entering eight, for two decision deba tes each. Losing only three of the sixteen debates , Hope men took first place, outdistancing Albion, Michigan State, Western State, Calvin, Kalamazoo, Battle Creek, a n d Alma. In February, nine teams were sent to the state tournament at W a y n e University, where with nine victories, Hope outpointed Wayne, Central State, Michigan State Normal, Hillsdale, and four of the seven colleges a l ready defea ted at Hope. In March, four teams went to Huntington, Indiana, for the Manchester-Huntington tournament; here eight class A deba t e victories over such opponents a s the University of Chicago, Loyola University, Wheaton College, Taylor University, Heidelburg University, and Northwestern University, gave the local boys a tie for fourth place among the fifty colleges from eight states which took part. In April, two men, Wendell Miles a n d Wilbur Jacobs, were sent to the National Pi Kappa Delta Convention a n d tournament at Topeka, Kansas. A large number of deba t e s were held in addition on our campus a n d before civic groups in Holland and neighboring cities; over eighty deba tes were held in all.

WASHINGTON BUST CONTEST WINNER Dean Dykstra
Once in four years the college holds a peace oratorical contest at which a bronze bust of Washington after Houdon is presented to the victor. This year Dean Dykstra won the coveted award , given by J. Ackerman Coles, with an exceptionally fine oration entitled "A Declaration of Inter-dependence". Mr. Dykstra also used this oration as the Raven contest representative in the State Oratorical Contest, held at Alma on March four. Here he won second place, due to his ability and months of hard work and practice, during which he was expertly coached by Dr. Holland Shackson.
With a sincere, revealing oration concerning maternal mortality entitled "The Perfect Tribute", Miss Gladys Van Lare entered the women's oratorical contest of the Michigan Intercollegiate Speech League. This contest was held at Alma College on March four, Hope's contestant receiving fifth place. The judges of the contest were the coaches of the colleges represented. Miss Van Lare was ably coached by our play director. Miss Ethelyn Metz, who w a s initiated into the oratorical work this year.
Dr. Holland Shackson, head of the forensic department, was influential in inserting a very worthy activity in the local Pi Kappa Delta chapter this year. Four delegates and Dr. Shackson represented Hope at the National Conven-tion held at Topeka, Kansas, April 18-23.
Our delegates included a woman orator, Eunice Sluyter, who delivered a commendable oration entitled 'Wild Fire", a discussion of the mar i juana drug traffic. The men's orator, Wilbur Jacobs, speaking about the danger of Fascism destroying American Democracy, received third place with his ora-tion, "Let Freedom Wring".
The extempore speakers were Alma Nyland, talking on "Careers for Twentieth Century Women", a n d Wendell Miles, whose subject was "Democracy or
The college was very proud of our delegates who were versatile enough to enter debat ing competition as well a s speaking. The men won five out of eight debates, while the women won two out of eight debates.
The convention was represented by one hundred thirty-five schools from thirty-five states. Hope's delegates were highly successful, receiving the praise of competent critics. Dr. Shackson received the signal honor of being chosen official parl iamentarian for the* convention. Indeed the Pi Kappa Delta is proud to have been represented so ably at this national convention.

ANCHOR
Backed by an unusually large and enthusiastic group of reporters, this year the Anchor staff has put the publication of the paper on a more systematic basis. This has permitted more members of the staff to participate in journal-istic work, and has allowed the heads of the Anchor enough time to plan improvements.
Under the leadership of Charles D. Bertsch, the first editor to have the advan-tage of previous experience as associate editor, the staff has begun an inex-pensive system of getting small half-tones of most of the students in college from used Milestone plates. Other accomplishments include increasing the number of Anchor key awards , a t tendance at national and tri-state collegiate press conferences during the fall and spring semesters, two staff parties, and revitalization of the circulation department.
Close cooperation between the business and editorial staffs has resulted in s teady reduction of the debt to $350, the lowest since 1929.

WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES LEAGUE Under the capable leadership of Kathryn Boon, president, the Women's Activi-ties League closed a successful year. Early in the school term year-books were distributed to all members with a mimeographed outline of the year 's activities.
According to custom, the league provided for one party a month for all the girls. The opening event was a tea for the new girls under the chairmanship of Betty Nieusma. In October a breakfast hike was held, and Lenore Vander-m a d e was chairman. December found all the girls dressed as youngsters in the lobby of Voorhees with Lois Voorhorst in charge. Rose Teninga was in charge of the January event, a sleigh ride.
Because of complications the February event, a carnival, was held in March. Under the charge of Marjorie Moody it was a delightful all-college event with each society having an act or concession. The March event, a Forum on Mar-riage and Courtship, was conducted by Mrs. J. W. Hornbeck, former Kalama-zoo College dean. Evelyn De Haan was in charge of the April Style Show.
May Day was decidedly a success. Esther Hinkamp was in charge and the crowning event was the coronation. The year 's program closed with a fare-well beach party in honor of the Senior girls.

CHEMISTRY CLUB
This year marks the fifteenth anniversary of the founding of the Hope Chemistry Club. It w a s begun under the leadership of Dr. Van Zyl in 1923. Throughout these years the club has mainta ined a high scholastic s tandard which has served a s a n incentive for study among those interested in chem-istry. Its members comprise those Sophomores, Juniors, a n d Seniors who have decided on chemistry a s their life's work. An a v e r a g e of 2.0 in all subjects is reguired of those desiring membership.
At the monthly meetings pape r s a re presented on various phases of theoretical a n d practical chemistry. Upperclassmen are reguired to give their topics in the form of an informal lecture. This is done in view of possible pos t -graduate work, for most former members of the Club have obtained assistantships at some large university. Occasionally an a lumnus speaks to the Club concern-ing his work or g r adua t e study. Once a year a trip is m a d e to some industrial plant. These trips prove both interesting a n d educational .
Under the able sponsorship of Dr. Van Zyl and of Dr. Kleinheksel the Chemistry Club strives to maintain the highest traditions of science at Hope College.

AFTERMATH SYLVIA HUXTABLE
Hazel Henderson had a pronounced aversion to spring, secretly she d readed its coming, a n d its subtle whispers and promises no longer aroused a happy-response from her; but today, on her walk, she was forced to realize it had arrived. All week in the office the young stenographers had been gay in flowered prints and had exchanged sibilant whispers of Johnny and Tom and Joe and the De Molay Spring Formal. Miss Henderson, when she heard their sprightly talk, moved restlessly, sat u p a little straighter in her chair, and adjus ted her glasses to a more forbidding angle. (How could they know she had been young and in love once?) And this afternoon on her walk Miss Henderson saw little things which last week she would not have observed, but now were brazenly apparent—like the look the girl in the drugstore where she had stopped for aspirin sent the perspiring soda-clerk; and the way the big negro proudly helped the young colored nurse air her white charge. Spring, the minx, was here again, letting everybody know its quick languors and enthusiasms, causing the wind to clip along at a furious rate and then stopping it altogether to sing a sly and secret song in one's ear. No, Hazel Henderson certainly did not care for spring. It had been a spring day when Roger sailed for France, and it had been spring, too, when he came back; When Miss Henderson fainted on the dock seeing his poor vacant eyes, and knowing all Roger would ever remember aga in were shells and gas and blood slithering thickly over the ground and broken bodies hurtling through the trenches.
Miss Henderson climbed slowly to her room on the second floor, absently deducing from the varied smells that she w a s going to have ham and c a b b a g e for her dinner. She a r ranged her hair and washed her hands detachedly. The walls in the house were very thin and in the next room the talkative little typist from the Insurance Exchange was relating to her roommate some new incident from her exciting life. Miss Henderson had often noted with mingled amusement and disgust that ordinary things never happened to Miss Simpson: they were "swell" or "just g rand" or "too simply thrilling;" but tonight she didn't hear.
She w a s walking along the lake with Roger, brave in clean new khaki. It was very warm for May and she had on a hat with ribbons and a ruffled white dress that swirled about her a s they walked.
"Are you happy. Hazel? Happy that you are mine forever?"
"O, you know, Roger!"
"1 am, too. So happy I feel I should shout it! Isn't it strange, Hazel, that one heart can hold it all?"
For a time they walked in silence, each thinking that no one had ever loved like this before.
[108]
"Darling," said Roger suddenly, "do you suppose when we a re d e a d the world will be the same? Do you think the sun will b e a s bright and the woods a s green a n d life a s kind?"
"No," replied Hazel with happy certainty, "it will never really b e the same."
The bell sounded then, a sharp, quick peal, and Miss Henderson went down to the dining room. The boarders were finding their seats a n d she slipped in a n d sat down among them. The landlady served the ham a n d c a b b a g e cheer-fully. The boarders accepted a n d a te them silently. It struck Mrs. Parker that everyone at her table w a s rather quiet. Rather quiet a n d rather sad, except-ing, of course. Miss Simpson a n d Miss Hines, who were never sad, a n d never, by a n y chance, quiet.
"And I said," said Miss Simpson, " 'What do you take me for, a n y w a y ? A doormat? ' She didn't say much back, let me tell you!"
"The nerve of her," ag reed Miss Hines.
Mr. Carmicheal cleared his throat. He w a s gray a n d fiftyish, with a depressed, frustrated face, a n d a n oddly breathless voice, a s though, try a s he would, he could not succeed in catching u p with life. Miss Henderson knew it w a s tacitly understood by the others that he thought a great dea l of her a n d that they thought it a pity she didn't feel the same w a y abou t him, because , a s Miss Simpson had once said to Miss Hines, a little too loudly for the thin walls of the house, "I'll bet she 's forty if she 's a day ."
"A lovely day . Miss Henderson," said Mr. Carmicheal in a low voice.
"Yes," returned Miss Henderson politely.
"The sun w a s so bright."
"Darling, do you suppose . . . the sun will be as bright?"
"Yes," said Miss Henderson again . From the corner of her eye she s aw the avid glances of Miss Simpson a n d Miss Hines.
Mr. Carmicheal mustered a gaiety he w a s far from feeling a n d persisted. " T h e world's at the spring' . . . a n d 'all's right with the world' eh?"
"Darling . . . and life as kind?"
And here Roger w a s the same a s d e a d in the Veteran's Hospital in Illinois, a n d she wished wretchedly she were dead , and life clutched them both after its futile, v a g u e fashion. And everything w a s a s it had been: the sun w a s quite a s bright a n d the woods would soon be quite a s green.
"O, yes," cried poor Miss Henderson, "it's been a lovely day."
Mr. Carmicheal cleared his throat aga in a n d looked at her desperately. "1 unders tand there is a very good show on tonight. 1-1-1 wondered if you would care to go? With—with me?" There, it w a s out. He drew a d e e p breath. Miss Simpson a n d Miss Hines took u p their forks simultaneously a n d poised them over their plates, heads bent.
[ 1 0 9 ]
H O P E C O L L E G E M I L E S T O N E
"Thank you," said Miss Henderson, after a pause. "Thank you, but I am going to be busy tonight. I have several letters to write, letters that must be written. Another time, perhaps," she lied. Mr. Carmicheal knew well enough that another time she would find something else to do, but he smiled bravely, a w a r e of Miss Simpson's pitying interest.
"Yes. Yes, indeed, another time," he answered slowly, quite defeated.
In a depressed silence they watched the solitary maid clear the table and bring in the dessert. Surprisingly, it w a s a strawberry shortcake, and Miss Hines, who w a s fat, brightened u p visibly; after c a b b a g e which, al though it had been creamed and disguised with cheese, was still cabbage , one really hadn' t expected much for dessert, had one?
Mrs. Parker aga in noticed the abnormal silence of her boarders. They were never like this: all so sadly engrossed with their own private thoughts. "Well," she said a n d smiled heavily down the length of her table. Her great surprise had fallen a little flat. "A strawberry shortcake in honor of spring."
"Darling, darling, darling . .
Miss Henderson suddenly put down her napkin and stood up. "Will you excuse me?" she said to the landlady. "I feel rather ill." She went out of the room hurriedly. Mr. Carmicheal looked after her in anguish and fell to talking very brightly with Miss Simpson.
In her room Miss Henderson dully watched the lights flash on and off in the dusk, but saw only a lake with a woman in a rufflled white dress and a man in khaki. Then she sighed and turned to her chair. She polished and adjusted her glasses and picked u p a book. Unseeingly, she turned over its printed pages. They were blurred and dim.
In the next room Miss Simpson twisted the dials of her radio in an attempt to find her favorite crooner. First, however, she got another station.
"Spring is here," Miss Henderson heard the announcer say importantly, "and we feel we must greet it. And so for our opening number we present Mendels-sohn's 'Spring Song.' "
"Gosh!" said Miss Simpson. "There's something about that music that gives me the creeps. It makes me feel like doing something crazy. Like—like—O, I don't know." She twisted the dials aga in and the crooner was in the dingy, but forgotten room, serenading the infatuated Miss Simpson and Miss Hines.
But a husky voice was singing in Miss Henderson's ear. It was soft and tender; it was all Miss Henderson had to remember.
"Darling, do you suppose when we are dead the world will be the same? Do you think the sun will be as bright and the woods as green and life as kind?"
Hazel Henderson dropped her head on the arms of the chair and began to cry, very quietly and sadly.

"DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES" SYLVIA HUXTABLE
There is a delightful poem by Haniel Long that h a s never been given its due publicity. The title is Dead Men Tell No Tales, a n d it concludes:
"But dead men tell no tales, they say!
Except old tales that burn a w a y The stifling tapestries of day:
Old tales of life, of love a n d ha te Of time a n d space, a n d will, a n d fate."
The d e a d men whose fine gray dust sifts through Time at those two Eldoradoes of Western Michigan, Port Sheldon a n d Singapore, must move their ghostly jaws in sepulchral grin when some new smart-aleck solemnly reiterates that d e a d men tell no tales. As Haniel Long puts it, d e a d men do tell tales; tales of "—love a n d hate, of—will a n d fate."
More than a century a g o a young Philadelphia b lade on a p leasure trip over Michigan's lakes, found a n ideally isolated spot on the "big lake" near Grand Haven. An Eldorado d ream w a s born a n d materialized. In the fall of that year the Ot tawa House w a s built by New York a n d Philadelphia capitalists a n d shortly af terward the settlers came—about forty strong—with provisions, a doctor, a n d flimsy houses ready to set up. Engineers laid out the wild-cat settlement into lots; roads were built to Grand Haven and Grandville; a light-house w a s built; a company yacht w a s maintained; and a boat ing club organized.
Then came the great panic of 1837. The gay founders of the village kept u p their lives of debauche ry for a time, a n d then, after a final wild night of revelry, during which several men a n d women were killed, the bubb le burst. The d e a d were buried next day, a n d the irresponsible backers went on to greener fields. One Abram Pike w a s left the solitary monarch of all he sur-veyed. He sold the hotel a n d a few lots for what little he could get, a n d the wild-cat town w a s deserted. But the romance remains. They still say, when the wind blows high, that ghosts a re dancing the stately measures of their day in the long since gone Ot tawa House; they say that the young Philadelphia wastrel roams about a n d weeps to see the ruin of his fine plans; they say that the ardent fools buried most of their money under the tag-alders for safety, a n d that there it remains to this day.
While Port Sheldon's sun w a s rising, another town w a s being p lanned some twenty miles south on the "big lake." Capitalistic schemers from the east h a d investigated the lumber in Western Michigan a n d found it promising. Singa-pore 's founders knew the value of the giants that grew along the wooded shores; they knew how easily the logs could be driven down the Kalamozoo

in the spring freshets to the lumbering mill at the mouth of the river. Michi-gan s white pines and oaks were to fall under the ruthless saw of the lumber-jacks, The sanguine capitalists, however, overlooked one thing in their calcu-lations: Nature's powerful tool, the wind.
Behind the village of Singapore stretched a huge sand dune. To the hardwork-ing jacks, it was, if they thought of it at all, like Vesuvius, the mountain forever stilled. But the wind is a s trange element. It may sweep softly across the lake a n d the dunes, scarcely causing a ripple; it may lash the lake into an inferno of wild waves. The dune that crouched behind the town began to move downward. Slowly, slowly, but surely, sand drifted through the streets and upon the steps of the frame buildings. It lay as a fine film of dust upon the windows. It huddled about the bases of the trees. The company became a larmed as the aimless drifting continued; wisely they stopped operations and moved a w a y with all their paraphernal ia . And Singapore was deserted and left to the dead.
For a time, it w a s inhabited by squatters, who scurried like stray animals through the sand-laden streets and houses. And still the dune continued to drift over the once teeming village; and Singapore, too, was a forgotten Eldorado of Western Michigan.
Although it w a s October, and the season at an end, we had decided that we could not forego a final picnic. The highway, which was usually so busy, had little traffic. We drove through part of the fruit belt, but now the trees were stripped a n d barren against the sky; and the cherries and peaches that had not been sold in the Chicago markets or taken to the canning factories, were standing in proud and even rows upon the basement shelves. The lake drive w a s dark and deserted. Dark, for al though fall w a s here, most of the bordering trees had retained their leaves and the sun had not sent its warming rays through the thick autumnal mass—and deserted, for the summer resorters were gone, the cottages boarded up, and the furniture stood shrouded and disconsolate in the darkened houses.
After we had ea ten we cached the thermos and the baskets and walked down the sandy beach. There, before us, lay Singapore, the tiny lost village. One hundred years ago and less this had been the site of a thriving lumbering settlement; and then the eternal shifting of the dune country had buried it, and where the proud sturdy buildings had stood, now only dune grass waved lonely spears through the white sand. One hundred years ago, I thought, husky lumberjacks stood beneath this dune, where I stand now, sawing Michi-gan ' s hardwoods, floating them down the Kalamazoo, placing them on the river barges, drinking the whisky at the bright saloons, and cursing and loving life and themselves. Now all this is gone; and this great dune, a Vesuvius in disguise, is solitary master.

We were silent, our high spirits temporarily quenched in the face of this slight but overwhelming force, when suddenly, not three feet away , a spoonful of sand shifted a n d fell. Another spoonful shifted a n d fell slowly. Still another shifted a n d moved down, gather ing speed a n d more sand as it moved, a n d fell, a tiny avalanche , into the s tream that w a s once a river. There w a s a g rand a n d impressive finality to that gesture; a ruthless hand w a s behind this; a n d a n u n h a p p y ghost seemed to be saying in a proud, unrelenting way, "1 mean to show you who's boss a round here." The wind blew hard a n d flat-tened our clothes against our backs. I shivered. The moment w a s pregnant with memories of a tempestuous, ghostly past.
We walked pensively back to our banked fire. We piled the driftwood high a n d watched the f lames go roaring up. Above us a flock of wild geese honked in haunted, mournful cadences, bound on their long southward flight—forever p a g a n and untameable , like the dunes. The dim haze of on-coming winter w a s about us in the chilling air. Behind us furtive shadows laughed at our solemnity. I looked a w a y a n d saw, in the shadowy af ter- image of the fire, jacks quarrel ing over their cards, and their jealous women watching them, looking over their shoulders—looking over our shoulders! . . . We said little a n d in this eerie dusk, I would not have been surprised to see Paul Bunyan himself drop down to warm his hands at our fire. In fact, such w a s the spell, that 1 knew he w a s with us, a n d the wind whistling thinly a n d then heavily in from the lake w a s not the wind at all, but the Blue Ox champing uneasi ly at the seven league boots of his master.
From the glow of the fire w e could see the white breakers pouring onto the beach. The wind blew strongly from the lake a n d w e felt the first stinging drops of rain upon our d reamy faces. We were sad with the sadness of year ' s end. There w a s a hint of heavy chill a n d even snow in the air. Winter w a s very definitely just a round the corner.
Our sadness, too, w a s the sadness of mortality; for things, a n d for towns that live, a n d therefore, in time must come to die; e labora te fancies of the ghosts of the past. I knew, suddenly, that Hazlitt w a s wrong; youth does realize the mortality of things. I knew that it is finally only the d e a d men who tell tales:
'. . . old tales that burn a w a y The stifling tapestries of day:
Old tales of life, of love a n d hate Of time a n d space, a n d will, a n d fate."

"THEY SHALL NOT DIE" SYLVIA HUXTABLE
I
They shall not die. Because they once were young And cooly dared the spray of swinging seas And freely gave a light and ready tongue To all that pleased themselves, or did not please, They shall not die. The laughing boys who talked Of life's sweet pain and spring's enduring breath And with true loves at dusk dim pa thways walked; These lads shall never die a final death. They know not yet the sullenness of blood. The dreary trenches that before them lie; That from their hearts will rise no joyous flood— But since they once were young, they shall not die.
And they know not, nor make they any sound. When their bodies plummet to the riven ground.
II
They shall not die. A bright field now they know, A lovely field that no stark cross defines. The thousand shy and muted winds that blow Are but the subtle chorus of their minds. But now a chill and darker wine they guaff, A heavy wine that was not mulled on earth. That bears the ring of Hades mighty laugh And mellowed not with Thalia's heady mirth. Because they once were young, they have not died: A sea-change they have known; a rising wind Has by some alchemy cold death defied And to the ages, their brave wings has pinned.
And no sere gas aga in will blind their eyes To war, and all the truth that with it dies.

THE SENIOR PLAY
The dramatic production of the class of 1938 was acclaimed by an apprecia-tive audience as the best play given in Holland in several years. The presen-tation established the continuation of the annual dramatic tradition as a certainty. The production, which was entitled "The Late Christopher Bean", written by Sidney Howard, was s taged in the Holland High School auditorium, April twenty-eight and twenty-nine. Much of the great success of the play w a s due to the skilled and able direction of Miss Ethelyn Metz, a graduate of the Northwestern School of Speech.
The play w a s exceptionally well cast, distinguished by smooth action, clever portraiture, and proper emphasis on the dramatic moments occurring fre-quently in the plot.
The action of the play is laid in the New England home of Dr. Haggett, a typical village doctor, with the plot centering around the paintings of a poor artist "Chris Bean", who had spent some time on the Haggett place before his death ten years previously.

The curtain rose on the Haggett living room, a most attractive setting, a n d the characters took their parts with the ease a n d assurance of veterans. Mayo Hodden w a s a most convincing Dr. Haggett , while his attractive daughte rs p layed their parts capab ly in the manner required by their roles. These parts were taken by Marjorie Moody a n d Patricia Verhulst, the one thoughtful a n d sweet, the other vain a n d ambitious. Mrs. Haggett , p layed by Alberta De Jonge, por t rayed the shrewish wife a n d mother to perfection.
Outs tanding in her leading role of Abby, maid-of-all-work, unduly interested in the better things of life, w a s Lucille Buter. Others who were convincing in their parts were Harold De Pree, the bashful though talented Warren Creamer; George Ziegler a s Tallant; Earnest Tirrell, who gave a clever characterization of the Jewish art dealer; a n d Del Te Paske as Davenport, a distinguished art critic.

WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
The Women's Athletic Association was founded at the beginning of the year 1938 for the purpose of furthering athletics for girls within the college. Under the joint sponsorship of the Athletic Debt Diggers, the Women's Activities League, and the physical education department, the Women's Athletic Asso-ciation has a l ready laid the foundation for a permanent means of developing the physical side of Hope women students.
All the girls of the college automatically become members of the Association with the payment of their activities fees, but there is a board of nine which control all its activities. The Association was backed financially by the A.D.D. a n d the college administration. Under the main board there were girls appointed to take charge of handling the various athletic activities of the Association.
Among these activities were bowling, swimming, basketball, badminton and ping-pong during the winter, and hiking, tennis, roller-skating, and horse-back riding in the spring. The Association also had a hand in sponsoring the annual girls' track meet held on May 6, and was responsible for the tennis team which competed with various M.l.A.A. colleges.

VARSITY FOOTBALL
The 1937 football season w a s not a successful one. Hope ended in a tie for fourth place. After starting the season rather auspiciously with three wins and a tie, we lost our final four games, partly because of the inability of Marcus and Northouse to play because of injuries.
Opening the season with twelve letter-men from last year 's squad and strong Sophomore and reserve material, Hope conquered its first opponent of the season. Olivet, in a night game, 6-0. Northouse was injured and w a s laid up two weeks. Hope counted in the first period on a forty yard jaunt by Bran-nock, a Sophomore, playing his first game of college ball. Hope pushed Olivet all over the field for the remainder of the game, piling up sixteen first downs to Olivet's two. Brannock's running ability stood out in Hope's first win of the season.
Hope's second game and also its second victim w a s Grand Rapids Junior Col-lege. Score 12-0. Hope scored in both the first and fourth quarters. Thomas scored in the first quarter by smashing over center. Marcus and Thomas "stood out" in the back field, with Schaubel, De Groot and Heneveld playing excellent games in the line.
Hillsdale proved to be Hope's first M.I,A.A. victim, but not until after a long, hard-fought battle. Hope gained a great deal of ground the first half and it

looked a s if Hope would score readily, but the half ended 0-0. In
H the second half Hillsdale did most 1 : ? of the ground gaining, but did not
score. A long pass, Marcus to Schaubel , in the waning minutes of the g a m e put the ball across a n d g a v e Hope its first conference vic-tory.
The Ferris g a m e ended in a 0-0 tie. The team showed a marked let-down after the Hillsdale game. Hope's next g a m e w a s with Kala-mazoo a n d Hope w a s bea t en rather badly, 26-0. It w a s Hope's first de-feat a n d placed Kalamazoo at the
top. Kalamazoo scored twice in the first few minutes of play and it took a lot of pep out of our fellows right from the start. This g a m e cost us Bob Marcus who w a s laid u p the rest of the year with an extremely b a d shoulder. Van Domelen really stood out for Hope. The Kalamazoo jinx certainly hit us this game. The g a m e w a s a homecoming g a m e a n d a large crowd witnessed the contest.
The following week Hope journeyed to Ypsilanti to play Michigan Normal and lost 19-0. However, Hope h a d some tough breaks which spelled defeat. Thomas p layed the best g a m e of his college career. Van Domelen also p layed
a n excellent game. In those last two games Hope outgained both oppo-nents, Kalamazoo nine first downs to eight a n d Ypsi, seven first downs to six, but the scoring punch h a d been lost.
Alma w a s Hope's homecoming oppo-nent a n d not until in the last minutes did Alma come through with a field goal to win 3-0. Both teams were re-peatedly near the other's goal line but could not put the ball across.
Hope lost to Albion 6-0 in its last g a m e of the season. Hope's running attack was smothered by Albion's fast, hard-charging line a n d the passes failed to click. Hope failed to threaten at any time during the game. Albion scored in the first guar ter a n d then fought hard to retain its lead.

FRESHMAN FOOTBALL
The Freshmen played three games: with Alma, Hillsdale, and Kalamazoo Freshmen, ending up with two losses and a tie. Contrary to the looks of this record, the boys played fine ball. The Frosh squad was one of the most expe-rienced squads at Hope during the past decade and it contains a great deal of valuable material for the varsity next year.

VARSITY BASKETBALL
Starting the season with six lettermen from last year 's championship squad a n d with some strong Sophomore material, it looked as if the Dutch might repeat in M.I.A.A. competition. The Hope squad, however, tied with Kalama-zoo for the lead at the end of the regular season. A playoff was a r ranged for and Kalamazoo won the playoff at the Civic Auditorium by the score of 44-31. The old jinx—the same team not being able to win the title twice in succession. Hope opened its season with Ferris on their home floor. Due to a shoulder injury received in football, Marcus did not play the first game. The initial g a m e was marked by some good ball-handling. The end of regulation play-ing time found Hope leading 39-17.
Michigan State, Hope's second opponent, was found to be too tough a nut to crack. The Dutch failed to repeat last year 's victory and lost 51-27. Vanden Berg, due to a broken nose received in the Ferris game, did not see much action. However, a s the season progressed, we saw that it was no disgrace to be whipped by Michigan State, a s they defeated some of the strongest teams in the country.
The final game before the Christmas holidays found the Dutch losing to Michi-gan Normal by the score of 35-26. This was due mostly to the fact that Hope was unable to stop Walsh, the Hurons' speedy forward.
Following the vacation Hope journeyed to Kalamazoo to play Western State. After playing them practically even for three quarters, the Dutch five faltered

in the last quar ter a n d Western scored eight points in the last two minutes to win the g a m e 50-35. Vanden Berg w a s high scorer for the evening with ten points, fol-lowed by Thomas a n d Marcus with eight points each. Slikkers started his first g a m e at gua rd a n d from then on he enjoyed the starting call at guard .
Following the Western game, Hope h a d one more warm-up contest, with Ferris, a n d Hope emerged victor on the Ferris floor.
In its first conference g a m e with Olivet, Hope decisively t rounced the Comets 62-20. Every player on the s q u a d got into the game. The high scoring g a m e featured Thomas with twelve points a n d Honholt and Brannock with eleven each. Following the Olivet contest Hope p layed Alma a n d by a great show of scoring power polished Alma off 61-30.
The third conference g a m e w a s with Albion, who h a d a l ready proved to bo the surprise team of the league. The g a m e w a s a see-saw batt le for three quarters. Hope drew a w a y to a 40-28 lead which in the next few minutes w a s cut to 41-40. The Dutch then pulled a w a y in a finishing spurt with the final score 47-41.
Hope's unblemished record w a s punctured when the Dutch journeyed to Kala-mazoo a n d lost a thrilling overtime g a m e to the Hornets. Inability to keep Spalsbury from scoring cost the Dutch the game. The final score w a s 39-37. The next g a m e with Alma proved to b e another win for Hope a n d it p laced the Dutch in a triple tie for first with Albion a n d Kazoo. Marcus p layed one of his best games of the year a s he led in scoring with a total of eleven points.
Olivet a n d Michigan Normal were the next opponents a n d the Dutch emerged with one victory a n d one defeat , winning from Olivet 40-19 a n d losing a thrill-ing contest to Ypsi 33-30. Slikkers put on a scoring exhibition with twelve points to his name.
Hope encountered Adrian, a newcomer to the conference, a n d walked a w a y with a 74-23 win. Heneveld, Hope's center, scored sixteen points, followed by Thomas with thirteen points.

Albion, the next opponent, proved too tough and Hope dropped the contest 44-38. The defeat dropped the Dutch to second place, a half-game back of Kalamzoo. Inability of the Dutch defense to stop Foye and Teduniak, who scored thirteen and fifteen points respectively, cost Hope the game they needed. Thomas and Boyink were outstanding for Hope with nine and seven points, respectively.
The following game with Adrian revealed Hope's fight to regain the lead and Adrian w a s taken into camp by a wide margin. Hope's fighting Dutch then returned home for the last game on the schedule—with Kalamazoo. Hope won, 48-41, necessitating a playoff for the championship.
The playoff was disastrous for the Hope team and it resulted in the loss of the game. Score 44-31. The g a m e was played at the Civic Auditorium in Grand Rapids. Brannock w a s high scorer with fifteen points. Spalsbury and Howard accounted for most of Kazoo's points.

TRACK
Hope opened the track season with the M.I.A.A. indoor track meet at Hillsdale. This year, due to a late start in practice, Hope entered only three men in the meet, Northouse and Powers in the shot put and Buteyn in the middle dis-tances.
The outdoor season for Hope started on April 30 when the thin clads traveled to Kalamazoo for a triangle meet with Kalamazoo and Olivet. Northouse and Powers were outstanding in the shot put and discus. Hop qualified in the discus event. Brannock and Buteyn excelled in the sprints a s did Timmer and Waldo in the 880 run. This meet proved to be the test for several new men on the squad.
This year the Interfraternity Track Meet, sponsored by the Anchor, was held on May Day. The contest was as thrilling as the one of last year, with genuine rivalry between the Cosmopolitan fraternity, the defending champions, and the Fraternal fraternity, runner-up of last year. The Fraternals won the meet. The medal for the greatest number of individual points was earned by Lee Brannock.
Coach Schouten trained the men every day with excellent results, which were shown at the M.I.A.A. Field Day, held on May 27.

Slikkers, a Sopho-more, was expected to give the others a good run for one of the first four posi-tions. The veterans of the squad were Marcus, Van Dussen, Hopkins, and Hadden.
Marcus, who played the number two position last year, has improved and w a s a probable winner of individual honors this season.
The golf squad seemed destined to finish at the top to win the crown for Hope. Our team has completed a successful golfing season.

H CLUB
The H Club is composed of those athletes who have won a varsity a w a r d in athletic activity of some sort. This organization does the most to stimulate interest a n d enthusiasm in athletics on Hope's campus. These men represent capab le performers on Hope's net teams, mains tays on the football a n d basket-ball teams, a n d record breakers on the track a n d on the fairway.
The Senior members of this group, each one a n al l-around athlete, have served Hope for four years. The other wearers of the coveted "H" will have opportunities to serve Hope for at least another season. It would be hard to find a finer g roup of athletes anywhere .
Hope is proud of the men in the H Club a n d thankful for the prestige that the men of the Orange a n d Blue have captured for her.
