To many Hopeites it stands out as the most important season in the entire year. There are those who sincerely hope that when it has passed it will seem so to all. Prayer Week is nominally under the auspices of the Associa- tion Union, but it will take the prayerful cooperation of every Hopeite whose Christianity is a vital factor in his or her life to make it a positive year-mark in the life of Hope College. The opening meeting will be held in Winants Chapel on Sunday evening, March 18. Prof. Hagar will be in charge. The principle speaker of the week, "Dad" Elliot, will have charge of three meet- ings, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. These meetings will, as usual, be held in the forenoon. The exact time will be announced from the Chapel platform. To Discuss Problems It is planned to have short dis- cussion meetings, for any who are interested, with Dr. Elliot from 1:00 to 2:00 each day of his stay here. From 2:00 to 5:00 he will be available to any who wish to have conferences with him. Prayer groups for men and women will be held on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings. On Wednesday evening the girls plan to have women from town to lead the groups. These group meetings are for informal discus- sion and prayer on the everyday problems which puzzle all thinking students. Is Needed To the most optimistic observer, it is evident that the spiritual life of Hope's campus is at ebb tide. The studentry is in dire need of a rejuvenation of soul that will place Hope again on the high plane of religious enthusiasm for which this school has been noted in the past. The various distinctly religious organizations on the campus are working hard to make prayer week a success. It is the hope that many may experience a spir- itual shake-up that will bring them out of the rut into which they seem to have fallen and start again on the up-grade to bigger and more glorious things in Christ Jesus, having new hope and joy in living. BIG CARNIVAL TO APPEAR ON CAMPUS Everybody notice!!! Keep your eyes and ears open for the an- nouncement of the dates for the jig Carnival to be held shortly ifter spring vacation.

Miss Klooster has been promi- nent in social and religious activ- ities as long as she has been on the campus. She comes to Hope from Central Lake, Michigan. She was ' graduated from Ellsworth High School with highest honors.

The remaining offices of the organization will be filled by appointment. The newly elected officers will assume their duties after the in- stallation which is to take place on the second Thursday after vaca- tion. Pres. Helen Zander was in charge of the election procedure. A fairly large group of girls came out to this important meeting of the year. A short devotional exercise pre- ceded the business meeting. Prof. Harry Hager gave a few words of caution about careful selection of officers. He stressed the impor- tance of having the right type of girls as leaders and the necessity for them to center their interests on the work of the Y. W. C. A. Y. W. C. A. is now focusing its attention on Prayer Week and is looking forward to the services of the week with a hope of real bene- ficial results. The night was dark and stormy. The clock was striking ten and thirty. (Sorry I couldn't say mid- night but this is a true story.) Slowly through the corridors of Voorhees drifted the acrid smell of smoke. A door opened, two, three, four, fifty. The halls became the scene of ultra confusion. In the lower regions the right valient Dr. Nykerk with the heroic aid of Mrs. Durfee, Miss Gibson, and a number of the girls labored diligently with pails and pitchers and one small hose. Before many minutes the fire was out, the dormi- tory saved and the Dean of men proclaimed the hero of the occa- sion. But that is not yet the end of this story. An impromptu circus followed.

Hope ia going to have Spring vacation beginning March 23. About the Campus The '28 Annual workers have been putting forth real efforts and sight a completion of their task. Such is the statement/of Editor Kenneth Hyink. The '28 yearbook will have an art theme which will startle every Hope student and alumni because of the appropriateness and the clever use of it throughout the book. The yearbook aims to re- flect campus life of this term in as interesting and novel a manner as possible. At present 325 out of a student body of 510 have subscribed for the book. The price has been ad- vanced to $3.50, due to the limited time before publication. The printing and engraving expenses of the book amount to over $3,300.00, showing that considerable finance is involved. The last orders for the "Milestone" will be taken in April. It is expected that release will be made the first week of June. The printing and engraving work is under contract to be done by some of the most capable con- cerns in the country and the book will undoubtedly give evidence of their workmanship. ALBION GLEE CLUB PERFORMS IN CITY VISITING MUSICIANS ENTER- TAIN LOCAL AUDIENCE WITH PROGRAM Look up those old snapshots of your friends, slip them to the Mile- stone Staff, and surprise them when the Annual comes out. Lester Kuyper desires to an- nounce that he will not be respon- sible for any window-rapping going on in his apartment for the pur- pose of attracting fair passers-by. It seems good to have Mrs. De Jong again on the campus, teach- ing French as she used to do. She expects to take Miss Barkema's classes until after Spring vacation. We hope her visit among us will be a pleasant one. "Stretch" Sluyter gained some glory for himself on the way back from Albion. Being mistaken for a celebrity is some distinction in itself. It isn't every young man who has nice old ladies enquiring whether or not he is Colonel Lind- bergh. Unfortunately Dr. Nykerk's love of truth forced him to deny it. Too bad, "Stretch", it would have been an interesting expe- rience. If Voorhees girls were not well prepared in classes Friday morning it was not entirely their fault One can't very well fight fires and have all the excitement connected with them and at the same time study her lesson. Anyhow, it's a good excuse! We are watching with interest the progress made on the new chapel. Judging from recent de- velopments, we may yet live to its completion. The waiters at Voorhees have re- cently been iuformed of the requi- sites for a good waiter. We imagine that they are now bereft of any conceit they might formerly have cherished. The girls have particu- larly noticed the absence of the thrice daily "serenades" and also the heated discussions. Be at rest, all ye who have la- mented the absence of a Spring va- cation. The faculty claim to be more surprised of the report than we are. So go ahead and make your plans for March 28 and the week following. Voorhees girls unconditionally grant the cook a gold medal for economy and utility. On the morn- ing following the Are she served amoked beef for breakfast The Albion College Men's Glee Club entertained the public of Hol- land with a concert presented in the Methodist Church on Monday, March 5. A very large audience was present to hear the visiting musicians and Hope College stu- dents, being interested in the ac- complishments of other schools, at- tended in large numbers. The program was well arranged and included several varying fea- tures. In addition to the splendid vocal selections of the Glee Club, an accomplished violinist and an excellent orchestra contributed to their success of the entertainment of the evening. The Albion musicians are touring the cities of Michigan in a large motor bus, and Holland was one of the first cities included in their itinerary. Albion College is one of the several colleges of Michigan and one of Hope's rivals in the M. I. A. A. circle. Former Instructor Is Filling Vacancy The Music Department has been extremely fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. W. H. Loomis of Grand Rapids as an instructor, She has studied for many years under the greatist artists of Chi- cago, New York and Paris and the studentry can be very thankful for the opportunity of studying under her. She will conduct classes in History and Appreciation of Music, Harmony, Theory of Music, and Sight-singing. As soon as arrangements can be made, she will give pipe organ lessons also. Among her many other teaching duties in Grand Rapids, she is choir director and organist of the Park Congregational Church. Music Is Worth While Mrs. Loomis told briefly of her work at Chapel Friday morning and spoke interestingly on music. "Music is a gift from God. It is just as much a part of this uni- verse as the sun, moon, and stars." It is a powerful influcncc for good, being born, cradled and reared in the church. It is also of great advantage socially. In comments ing on the music of the day Mrs. Loomis stated that the much con- demned jazz has a place and that a knowledge of its use is neces- sary. A college is incomplete without a well-organized music depart- ment and Hope is making fine progress in this direction. It was organized by Prof. Nykerk in 1903 and has been growing stead- ify. Each year Hope awards sev- eral B. M. degrees to students who have completed the necessary six years' work. A new Bush and Lane piano has been bought for the Grace Marguerite Browning Studio. Courses Are Varied The Faculty of the School of Music offers a wide range of courses of instruction. The eight members and their courses are as follows: Mr. Oscar Kress—piano; Mrs. Grace Fenton—Voice and Singing; Mrs. H. L. Dunwoody— Voice and Singing; Miss Martha Barkema Singing; Mr. Walter Ritter—Violin and Director of Or- chestra; Mr. Kenneth Mook—Con- certmcister and Assistant Direc- tor; Mrs. W. H. Loomis—Theory, Marn.ony and Counterpoint, His- tory and Appreciation of Music, Sight-singing, .and Pipe Organ; Miiw Margaret Hondelink-—Cornet at.d Trumpet anil Director of Trumpeters. A classroom vacancy caused by the illness of Miss Martha Barke- ma, Instructor in French, has been temporarily filled by Mrs. Marian Van Drezer De Jonge. Mrs. De Jonge is not a stranger to many of the students, having held a posi- tion on the Faculty last year. Prof. Welmers in making the an- nouncement in chapel remarked that there might be a marked im- provement in her diacipline. Star-gazers Seek Knowledge of Sky At eight-thirty o'clock every Tuesday evening a group of stu- dents, in search of more knowledge, meet in the open under the direc- tion of Professor Lampen to study the stars. Their observation, however, is hindered because of the lack of satisfactory equipment, but nevertheless the study hour proves a great help to them. In the fu- ture the class will attempt to use the telescope in the observatory even though it is inefficient and sot the kind the astronomy students should have. The class fhu) these observation nights very imtructive and interesting. Juniors To Entertain With Usual Banquet Juniors will entertain the Senior class with the usual banquet. Such was the decision of the class a t a meeting of recent date. The ques- tion occasioned quite some discus- sion since a large number preferred some form of novel entertainment to the customary lifeleaa affair. The "old timers" won by a majority of one vote. The class, being in a conservative mood, also rejected the proposed idea of having the Junior giria in- vite Senior men and Junior men in- vite Senior girls. It ia Leap Year to no avail.

The Music Department has been extremely for tuna te in securing the services of Mrs. W. H.

She will conduct classes in History and Appreciation of Music, Harmony, Theory of Music, and Sight-singing. As soon a s ar rangements can be made, she will give pipe organ lessons also.

Among her many other teaching duties in Grand Rapids, she is choir director and organist of t he Park Congregational Church.

work a t Chapel Fr iday morning and spoke interestingly on music. "Music is a g i f t f rom God. I t is just as much a pa r t of this uni-verse as the sun, moon, and s ta r s . " I t is a powerful influcncc for good, being born, cradled and reared in the church. I t is also of g r ea t advantage socially. In comments ing on the music of the day Mrs. Loomis stated tha t the much con-demned jazz has a place and t h a t a knowledge of i ts use is neces-sary.

A college is incomplete without a well-organized music depar t -ment and Hope is making fine progress in this direction. I t was organized by Prof. Nykerk in 1903 and has been growing stead-ify. Each year Hope awards sev-eral B. M. degrees to students who have completed the necessary six years ' work. A new Bush and Lane piano has been bought f o r the Grace Margueri te Browning Studio.

Courses Are Varied The Faculty of the School of

Music offers a wide range of courses of instruction. The e ight members and their courses a re as follows: Mr. Oscar Kress—piano; Mrs. Grace Fenton—Voice and Singing; Mrs. H. L. Dunwoody— Voice and Singing; Miss Mar tha Barkema — Singing; Mr. Wal te r Ritter—Violin and Director of Or-chestra; Mr. Kenneth Mook—Con-certmcister and Assis tant Direc-tor; Mrs. W. H. Loomis—Theory, Marn.ony and Counterpoint, His-tory and Appreciation of Music, Sight-singing, .and Pipe Organ;

Miiw Margaret Hondelink-—Cornet at.d Trumpet anil Director of Trumpeters.

A classroom vacancy caused by the illness of Miss Mar tha Barke-ma, Instructor in French, has been temporarily filled by Mrs. Marian Van Drezer De Jonge. Mrs. De Jonge is not a s t ranger to many of the students, having held a posi-tion on the Faculty last year.

Prof . Welmers in making the an-nouncement in chapel remarked tha t there might be a marked im-provement in her diacipline.

Star-gazers Seek Knowledge of Sky

At eight- thir ty o'clock every Tuesday evening a group of s tu-dents, in search of more knowledge, meet in the open under the direc-tion of Professor Lampen to study the stars .

Their observation, however, is hindered because of the lack of sat isfactory e q u i p m e n t , but nevertheless the study hour proves a grea t help to them. In the f u -ture the class will a t t empt to use the telescope in the observatory even though it is inefficient and so t the kind the astronomy s tudents should have. The class fhu) these observation nights very imtruc t ive and interest ing.

Juniors To Entertain With Usual Banquet Juniors will entertain the Senior

class with the usual banquet. Such was the decision of the class a t a meeting of recent date. The ques-tion occasioned quite some discus-sion since a large number prefer red some form of novel enter ta inment to the customary lifeleaa affai r . The "old t imers" won by a major i ty of one vote.

The class, being in a conservative mood, also rejected the proposed idea of having the Junior giria in-

vite Senior men and Junior men in-vite Senior girls. I t ia Leap Year to no avail.

A woman is known by the com-

pany she keeps wai t ing (Coo).

"I believe in metempsychosis ;

when I die I shall be reincarnated

in the body of an animal ." "But then, you don ' t need to die."

H U M O R

Is there any more poignant criticism of a man than tha

he is devoid of any appreciation of humor? The man who

does not respond to the elfin pranks of a playful humor and

who views the world in the light of his own dulled nature is

automatically ruled outside of the pale of the most desirable

society. And there is reason sufficient for this.

Someone has said that freedom implies a sense of humor.

If a man cannot raise himself above the seriousness of his

own situation to view with a smile his own idiosyncrasies,

then, indeed, he is not master of himself, but a slave to his

own narrowed self. When one has been concentrating all of

his efforts on one thing for some time, how good it is to sit

back and laugh! This will dispel any idea that the entire

world depends on the success of your work; this will show you

your real position in relation to the things of life. If \ou aie

unable to free yourself from the grasp of your task, then the

thing has gotten holf of you and you cease to be master, f ree

to do as you please. We have been writing in this column and shall continue to

do so. We are serious in our ideas. Yet, when you read —

and we assume tha t there is a possibility that > ou ma\

some of these editorials and then do not feel that the course

of your life is changed, do not think our end is defeated.

Remember that we do not expect to revolutionize the world.

Dismiss it, if you will, with a smile and we are satisfied.

A song of scorn was sent to me.

A CARNIVAL!

Have you heard rumors concerning the approaching car-

nival? Lights and laughter, wild beasts, acrobats, fun and

f reaks! (There was a time when freaks were a common

sight so as to be considered quite a nuisance. But in this

unindividualistic age when everybody is like everybody else,

people will pay large sums to gaze upon a f reak) .

Are you old enough or well enough informed to recall the

carnival of some years ago? It was a grand success.

There were ferocious animals that looked as it they hadn t

eaten for a month and were eager to break their tast. (We

quickly threw peanuts to them.) There was an incubator

baby—very good sized and perfectly healthy. The Miamese

Twins were friendly—and so were all the other freaks. There

was a dark cave full of dangers to be explored by brave

people. There were gypsy fortune-tellers and acrobats and

good things to eat! The enormous crowd had the best time ever.

That is why we are looking forward to the coming event.

We believe that Hope harbors just as ingeneous, wise, and

witty folks now as then (are we optimistic?)—even more

so! And a word to the wise is sufficient.

The carnival is a town affair. The admission will probably

be a nickel with the side attractions costing all the way from

a penny to fifteen. Who knows, Simple Simon may find his pieman if he brings

his penny and Little Bo-Peep will surely find her shy sheep.

SATURDAY SCHOOL

Each Monday morning finds the cloud of "blue Monday

hovering around in the classrooms. Students seem to be at

their worst and the week-end work proves invariably to be

weak indeed. Is it mere procrastination or might there be some explanation in the order of affairs?

This is the situation. The student completes the work of the week on Friday, gives a big sigh of relief, and feels that a well-earned rest is due him. Since recitations are two days off there is no immediate necessity for working under the strain of a tired mind and rest continues — yes, it continues too long and the results are evident. Now if a student were to go to school on Saturday, have an opportunity to rest on Sunday as he should have, prepare his lessons on Monday, and go to school on Tuesday, would it not be a more logical order of events ? It would insure a better preparation for the work of the first school day of the week. It would pro-vide an excellent opportunity to write term papers and attend to outside work. And above all it would eliminate the prac-

tice of Sunday study. Of course tradition would balk such an innovation, but

believing that there are worth while results to be gained, we ghould like to see the idea put to the test of practice.

Changing Standards

By Arlyne L. Haan o

Kditor 's note : The following is an excerpt f r o m a Senior Ethics paper in which the wr i te r summar-ises an art icle appea r ing recently in the Saturday Evening Post. It re la tes the experience of a college g radua te of '07, who has been in China since graduat ion , when he r e tu rns to see for himself condi-t ions in his Alma Mater .

o The t ra in stopped, and Mr. Van

Winkle descended into the country of flaming youth. Th i s week-end celebrated the fes t iv i ty of Sp r ing Week, but a l though his f r a t e rn i ty was enjoying the las t Spring Week house par ty . Van Winkle was re-ceived with cordiali ty. He sa t in the living room of his f r a t e r n i t y house wondering if the girl in red with the sleek shingled head had been boneless to begin wi th; she cer ta inly danced without any t race of car t i lage. J u s t wha t was the dilTerence anyway, between the dancing now and the dancing he had known as an u n d e r g r a d u a t e ?

Was it merely t h a t i t seemed en-t irely e f for t less? There was some-th ing organic about it, like an accelerated hear tbea t . I t was more physically f r e e and na tu ra l—tha t

was it. As the house pa r ty progressed

the younger generat ion 's f reedom of caress caught Van Winkle 's a t tent ion probably more than any other one thing. These under-g radua tes and the i r gir ls seemed to hold hands a s a m a t t e r of course, much as a person crosses his knees or s t rokes his chin. When they rode in cars toge ther

up and down the s t ree ts of the college town the boys' a rms were more of ten than not about the gir ls ' waists . Twice Van Winkle saw s tudents ' ca r s proceeding slowly in full dayl ight with the occupants kissing each other hap-

. pily. Yet, he wondered, did i t lead to any h a r m ? There was a dis-a rming openness about the whole proceeding, a coolness tha t some how removed it f rom suspicion. But where was the a l a rming breakdown in young people's mor-als t h a t he had heard and rea( abou t? The parked cars, for in-s tance—the idea of scenes of pas-sionate abandon tak ing place in most of the cars he had seen about was laughable—those remnan t s o cast-off-fl ivvers ingeniously placet toge ther . Fp.W. . UNJ: comfortable places could be imag-ined for the a rdors of adolescent

love. Ti r ing of the dance, Mr. Van

Winkle s tar ted to enter a dark and apparent ly uninhabited l ibrary. He soon realized his mistake and as he re t rea ted in confusion one of the chaperons laughingly ad-dressed him. In answer to his in-quiries she informed him of h e r dut ies a s chaperon. "There are five of us," she said, 4 ,and we work by shi f ts . Every once in a while one of us goes casually into the

l ibrary, pre tending to look for a shawl, and reminds the loving couples, by the fac t of her int iu-sion, tha t i t is t ime they gave the

o thers a chance a t the room. " J u s t wha t is this pet t ing t h a t

I hear so much a b o u t ? " asked \ a n

Winkle. The chaperon laughed. "Ret t ing

is old-fashioned. J u s t now i t 's necking. Necking has a s t ronger

flavor than it deserves. To an out-

sider i t carr ies a more a la rming connotation than it does to the average s tudent . I don't like the sprawling around and pawing, my-

self, a l though 1 think in most cases i t is too superficial to do any seri-ous harm. I t makes for general messiness, t h a t ' s all. What I dis-like most about i t is the lack of

dignity and grace." The house-party guests de-

par ted ; the college slept fo r a night and a day, then slowly s truggled back to normal. Once more, a f t e r an absence of twenty

years . Van Winkle watched an av-e rage college crowd engaged upon the activity of an average college day. He heard the current ta lk of the campus—the agitat ion fo r an honor system, a rguments fo r and aga ins t ' compul so ry chapel; topics which were discussed with sur-prising competence. There was much post-mortem discussion of the house par ty girls; some announced tha t they were olf wom-en for life, o thers moved in a trance-like s ta te f rom which they returned to consciousness only to dispatch or receive special-delivery e t ters . He heard girls blamed or being too smooth," for not be-

ing smooth enough, fo r being dumb, for being a r ty ; fo r being high-hat ; for being gold-diggers; tie heard them praised fo r their ooks, for their conversation, for

their lack of it, for their old-fash-ionedness. Seemingly each male measured young womanhood by the most exact ine s tandards and in few cases were the s tandards

alike.

There was more talk about the subject ma t t e r of college courses than Van Winkle remembered f lora his own time, and the student body seemed more critical of the faculty. There seemed to be more s tudying going on too; certainly there were more books around. Of one th ing Van Winkle w a s con-vinced: whatever moral metamor-pnosis youth might or mi-gtit not have undergone, it had a t least grown more independent; #it stood

more on i ts own feet in a t t i tudes

and behavior. Finally, Van Winkle, so swampet

with impressions tha t he was un-able to place them in any logical order, called on Professor East , who had been teaching in the col-lege for a t least twenty-five years . East summarized his opinions a s follows: "There are calamity-howlers, whose favori te trick is

overs ta t ing the case. 'Youth has c a s t - a w a y the old securities, ' he wails, 'wha t will become of the

j eternal ver i t ies? ' And if you press hi:n fo r details you find tha t he means girls wear short ski r ts or tha t he saw an unchaperoned couple kissing in the moonlight. But, laying aside these exaggera-tions, you will still find tha t youth has changed. The relationship be-tween the sexes has changed. Girls permit more liberties; boys t ake more. Some of them come to gr ief , no doubt, but I question whether the proportion is as la rge as the proportion that used to come to grief through reticence, evasion, and false modesty. I g ran t tha t there is plenty of room for im-provement. The present-day un-dergradua te is too wastefu l , intol-e ran t , and ill-mannered. In spite of prohibition, he still drinks, but there is less mass dr inking than there used to be. His moral code dur ing the grea te r pa r t of his un-dergradua te days is a jumble, a fe rment . He begins to see tha t

morali ty is not a simple algebraic

business t h a t i t had seemed. He learns the difficulty of ty ing ac-tions up in neat packages and labelling them right or wrong. I t is easy to unders tand how, in the face of such confusion, the s tudent poses as the coolest of cynics, while a t hea r t he i s the most t im-orous and uncertain of mortals . The s tudents in my classes today are 50'/c more intellectually curi-ous than they were in your day and mine. The g rea t th ing is tha t

youth is s t i r r ing. I re fuse to be alarmed about the f u t u r e of the modern generat ion or even about i ts present behavior. I t shows un-mistakable signs of going about th ings in the r igh t way. I t is us-

ing i ts head."

Dr. S. M. Zwemer, '87, of Cairo, is a t present on a visit to India. The week beginning Jan . 22 was given to the city of Madras. Every morning he lectured to missionaries and other Christ ian workers on the religion, l i terature , customs and superst i t ions of Mohammedans; while his evenings were devoted to public addresses, a t which the at-tendance was chiefly non-Christian. The memory of his last visit has brought him large audiences. On J a n . 23 the Madras Auxiliary of the Bible Society held i ts annual meet-ing in the historic Memorial Hall, which was built in 1858 by means of public subscription a s a visible monument of public gra t -itude because the Sepoy mutiny was quelled before it reached Ma-dras and the city was saved f rom

an outbreak. The cha i rman of the meet ing was the Honorable Mr. Just ice M. D. Devadoss, t he first Indian Chris t ian to be raised to the High Court Bench in India.

To her perseverance, patience, kindliness and honor, and to her keen sense of duty, thousands of her pupils who have grown into matured life, owe to her a debt of gratitude which they will never be

able to pay.

Serving others, whether it may be in the school room, in the great professions or behind the store counter, and doing it just a little better day by day, is always worthy the best that is in us.

Service is one of life's loftiest aims.

HOPE CAGERS HAND DEFEAT TO VISITING ALBION QUINTET

VAN LENTE NETS SHOT IN

i O S G THIRTY

SECONDS

IS L A S T G A M E

Hope's basketball five ended the season in a blaze of glory with a defeat over Albion a f te r a hard-fought game in which the lead went from team to team and back again, but finally rested upon the Hope team as the whistle blew.

Hope took the lead in the first minute, but Albion came back to score a fi-tf lead before Hope got started again. The half ended with Hope leading 19-17.

Gain and lose lead

Hope came back in the second half to gain a margin of ten points, but Albion gradually cut down the Hope margin until at the last minute Albion was ahead 37-36. With 30 seconds to play. Van I^n-te, rangy sophomore guard, sank a long jne from the center of the court to bring victory to the Orange

and Blue.

Schouten substituted rather free-ly, giving his reserve material plenty of chance to gain experience. Tigelaar, Vanden Bush and De Young saw action in the second half. It was during this period that Albion came so close to vic-tory but the regulars again entered the game and with the help of Van I^ente staved off defeat.

Find basket easily

Vander Hill was "hot" on the basket, scoring eight baskets to lead the Hope scoring. Martin and Van Lente also played very well for Hope. Carlson was high point man of the evening with 17 points.

Grey, also, showed up well for Kobs of Michigan State College

the Methodists. refereed the contest.

B. & M. SHOE STORE

Last year at this time there ap-peared an editorial in the Anchor which did not insinuate but frankly stated that the failure of last year's basktibull team was due to lack of training by most of its members. No such charge can be nade of this year's team. Never was there a harder-training nor a ?leaner-cut bunch of fellows on any basketball team than there was on .his year's team.

Any school could reasonably be oroud of such a team whether in \ictovy or defeat. Always fighting, lever (|uitting, the team with a record of being one of the cleanest n the state surely has kept Hope's

banner flying high. The high scholarship of the team should not •o unnoticed. Also, the morale of he '27-,28 team was the best of

any team representing Hope Col-'ege. Each man sacrificed and lelped his teammate; perhaps this is the reason for the lack of an mtstanding star.

Everywhere one goes he is al-ways sure to find many would-be critics, but I am certain that no me can criticize — rather it is .vorthy of praise — the clean jporfcsmanlike coaching of Jack Schouten. We all are proud of a .vinning team but prouder still of a team of clean players. Jack seek? to develop men as well as players.

In conclusion a word of appreci-ation is due the student body and the faculty for the splendid spirit and support given t h e . team. Whether in victory or defeat we surely have a team of which to be proud.

—By Captain Martin, '29.

season with a great comeback los-The Frosh team ended the home

ing to the Albion Freshmen by the close score of 34-33. The Albion yearlings rallied at the close of the game, gaining the victory by the slender margin of one point with a center court shot by Grey in the last minute of play.

The Hope Freshmen had a ten point lead about three minutes be-fore the gun but could not stop the long-distance sharpshooting of the visitors in the final minutes of play. Nevertheless, the Freshmen did very well considering the lop-sided victory which the Albion-ites gained over the Hope yearlings on the Albion floor early in the sea-son.

Play Well

Becker and Smith showed up best for the Hope Frosh. Becker, as usual, carried, the fight and the brunt of the offense fo r Hope; Smith was hot on the iron, scoring 13 points. Grey was the star of the Albion squad, running up a total of 15 points himself and, in addition, sinking the game-win-ning basket in the last minute from the center of the court.

De Cook refereed the game in his usual style.

HOPE CUBS CRUSH BETHANY TEAM

VICTORY IN FIRST TOURNA-MENT GAME GIVES TEAM

FINE CHANCES

Playing their first game in the Western A. A. U. tournament a t Grand Rapids the Hope Frosh up-set all "dope" and brought home a victory over the Bethany's of Grand Rapids, trimming the Furni-ture City men decisively as is indi-cated by the 33-25 score.

The Bethany's had defeated the Boter's, a team which had beaten the Hope varsity early in the sea-son; and so the Frosh were not con-ceded to have an even chance of winning. But they came through in fine style and added another s tar to their crown.

All the men who got into the game scored at least one basket. Smith and VanderWerf, however leading them all with ten points. Besides these two, Juist , Becker, and Klooster also got into the game.

The next game of the Frosh will be Friday night when they will meet the Trinity Lutherans of Grand Rapids. The Frosh should come through to win this one, the Bethany's being considered a stronger team than the Lutherans.
