Hope Seniors To Continue Work In Graduate Schools

Many 1949 Hope graduates will be found still plying their school books next year, in some graduate school or university. Hope College has been cited in the past for her exceptionally high percentage of graduates who go on to do success-ful post-graduate work. The pres-ent senior class promises to main-tain this record.

In the field of medicine, seven men have thus f a r been accepted into medical schools for next year. These future "Docs" and their

In the field of law, Phil Meengs

has been accepted a t the University of Michigan Law School.

Jerome Veldhuis will be attend-ing Indiana University, where he plans to study on in social work.

To become a tooth-doctor is Bob Nyboer, who will be attending Loy-ola School of Dentistry.

P e g g y Prins plans to attend the Univers i ty of Michigan, where she will carry on her study in English.

In the biology field, Wal ly Fried-berg will be examining "bugs" a t Michigan State, where he will work in the field of parasitology.

This list is by no means exhaus-tive. Many other seniors have not yet definitely determined upon the Graduate School of their choice or are not yet reported as to their future plans.

Hope Sponsors Conference

To Study Teaching Outlook Outlook For Teaching Profession Uncertain

by Stephen Partington

Every day each student on this campus is forced to make several decisions. No mat-ter whether such decisions at the time seem important or insignificant, they do determine the success and liappiness of each individual toward the goal for which he is striving. Many decisions require a split second of thought before they are executed; others require hours of meditation and wisdom be-fore the decision is finally made.

As this semester comes to a close, we begin to realize that again we must decide what courses we shall plan on taking next year so tha t we may derive the greatest ben-efit f rom our college education. Many of us are at a loss to know what would be wisest to choose for our classes. All too many of us apply too little thought to such an impor-tant decision. It is our duty to read the college catalogue, have conferences with our professors, and discuss the pro and con of classes with dependable s tudents who have already taken those courses we are consider-ing. Our greatest concern of ten is the prob-lem of applying for courses which will neatly add up to that magic number 16. That is im-portant, but should be considered secondarily a f t e r we have determined which are the wisest courses to take.

As the thoughts of homework, exams, and sunny weather whirl through our minds this spring, let us set aside a little time to really investigate and determine the courses of most value for our fu tu re . Certainly the sen-iors can vouch for the fact tha t a well-planned program will save much worry and grief. Finding out a year f rom now which courses we should be taking next semester is a trifle late. Making a decision is necessary; making the correct decision may be the dif-ference between success and failure.

world. Time is our prime standard of meas-urement. We can hardly state a thought or a conclusion without bringing in the element of time.

We eat by time, sleep by time, work by time, play by time. We record our accom-plishments, not in terms of pleasure, or of the performance, or of satisfaction, but in terms of time. Time is money, as our fore-bears were fond of saying. But money is a tangible thing. The more you save, the more you have. Time is far more subtle stuff.

As soon as man seriously starts saving time, make up your mind that he will no longer have a moment to spare. But the supply of time is a daily miracle.

You wake up in the morning, and lo, your purse is magically filled with twenty-four hours of the tissue of the universe of your life. It is yours. It is the most precious of

The P&M dramatic society is deserving of words of approbation fo r their performances of "Everyman." The production was an achievement of technical expertness in dra-matic a r t . The skillful execution of lighting effects, the competent acting, the appropri-ate make-up, the exquisite costumes, and the unique musical background combined to give a professional result. The frui t ion of hard work and cooperation was a series of g ra t i fy -ing performances.

The staging of the morality play estab-lishes a precedent, fo r it is the first religious drama to be used by P&M. A play of this nature can make a real contribution to com-munity thought .

The production of "Everyman" also marked a step in the improvement of the material facilities of Hope College. The construction of the theater on the four th floor of the Science Building and, more recently, t he ad-dition of lighting equipment are improve-ments of permanent importance.

Consider Well Few college students any longer appear

interested in knowledge for knowledge's sake, or learning for cultural and self-sat isfying purposes. The great specialization urge has invaded the college mind, discrediting the once liberal education.

Many s tudents now, are concerned only with studies pertinent to what they consider their 'monetary majors. ' Any required sub-ject, not particularly revelant to their chosen fields, but necessary for the most limited kind of rounded education, meets with an angry chorus of, "What do we have to take this fo r?" Employing thought on these bor-ing essentials, becomes more distasteful and laborious as the years pass.

Education for these is but a means to an end; an end composed of a diploma secured job and sat isfactory wages.

A good example of this type of specialized thinking, occurred recently in a philosophy class. At the time, the respective meri ts and failings of Spinoza, Kant, and Hegel were being discussed. The instructor then pro-ceeded to point out the fallacies in the phil-osophers' idealist tendencies towards sense-knowledge.

One of our many specialists, thoroughly annoyed with this "absurd waste of t ime," cried indignantly, "If all these guys are wrong, why do we bother with them a t all. Why not jus t study the ones tha t are r ight and save a lot of time and trouble?

These 'short-cutters ' to knowledge are merely put t ing in time, time which they re-sentfully admit is necessary to secure tha t most sought a f t e r 'be all' — the diploma.

The dollar sign is undoubtedly an impor-tant insignia, and unfortunately governs our physical lives, but it should not dictate to the mind. The mind should govern the dol-lar, not the dollar the mind.

In later years, when the body becomes old and worn, worldly riches can no longer be appreciated, and their value diminishes greatly. The man, whose entire life has been wrapped around a far th ing ' s whims may then experience discouragement and d e s p a i r . Money, which had occupied the greatest par t of his mind for decades, will not longer seem important, and he can only wait for death with that disillusioned, vacuous thing, which might have been filled with soul-satisfying, indestructible knowledge.

Consider your set of values wisely and well. Perhaps, you will have to live with them for quite some time.—Duquesne Duke.

The college student lives in a whirl of conflicting and often confusing ideas of the purposes and principles of life. The phe-nomenally rapid advances in recent years by science have ocassioned new intellectual, social, and moral problems. Technical prob-lems abound. Developing political philoso-phies have caused new ideological conflicts. The ethical views that have arisen to pre-scribe courses of action are poorly defined, their implications poorly understood, and their importance difficult to evaluate. These and many other problems provide a vortex of disorder.

of time, or of matter? What is the place of the individual in a society in which the great emphasis is laid upon the organization ? What is the responsibility of a moral code in a scientific and technological age? The consideration of these problems sounds ab-tract and hence perhaps meaningless. But quite to the contrary, the answers to such problems have immense practical importance.

Each life must be based upon some domi-nant conviction. Trying to do otherwise re-sults in the psychological distortion of per-sonality. The college student, being in a formative stage of determining his basic ideas (either consciously or unconsciously), faces the challenging task of unifying his ideas by a central faith. The way in which he accomplishes or fails to accomplish his job will determine his contribution to tomor-row's world.

The traditional contribution of Hope Col-lege in this arena of conflicting ideas has

been an emphasis upon the adequacy of Christianity as a central faith. This is a distinctive and important contribution. Chris-tianity can provide a center for the vortex of confused ideas, become the unifying factor that gives true meaning to all particular facts of the world, and offer an adequate guidance in the process of living.

But Christianity is not a panacea for all intellectual, social, and moral problems. It is a body of general absolute truth which only has contemporary meaning when defined in terms of new situations and new ideas. And this is why it is a struggle to be a Christian. Our duty is to relate the general truths of Christianity to the new situations we face, and to relate the new situations to Christianity. The particular ideas and facts of life can only be meaningful when related to a central faith. Paradoxically, that faith has meaning only when expressed in particu-lar ideas, facts, and deeds.

Students of Social Work Visit Vocational School

Approximately f i f t y s tuden t s en-rolled in the sociology course, T H E F I E L D O F SOCIAL WORK, took an in teres t ing t r ip to the Michigan Boys' Vocational School on Wed-nesday, April 27. The g roup le f t the campus a f t e r dinner in ca rs which were supplied, f o r the most p a r t by the s tudents . This t r ip was

taken in connection with the s tudy which the s tudents have been mak-ing on inst i tut ions.

In the a f te rnoon the g roup was introduced to the inst i tut ion by the daputy-super in tendent of the school. He pointed out t h a t a relatively large staff is needed a t such a school, since they a r e responsible to the boys f o r the whole 24 hours every day. Less than 400 boys (ages between 12 and 19) necessi-t a t e about 180 employees on the s taff . The social service class learned tha t th is school was no longer considered as a place of de tent ion; nor is it considered as a place fo r puniHhment. But ra ther , especially since 1946, it has been regarded as a place fo r t rea tment . The class learned tha t the job of the school is first of all to convince the boy that the school is t ry ing to help him. The school regards behavior as pr imar i ly symptomatic , and therefore believes t ha t behav-ior is really changed only when deeper emotional needs of the in-dividual have been satisfied.

It seemed very significant to many of the s tudents that religion ( the experience of p raye r ) is one of the fundamenta l practical helps which the workers recognize in thei r work with the boys. I t was suggested tha t fundamenta l th ings don't happen to people unless one uses fundamenta l sources.

A f t e r being spoken to by several of the employees of the school, the group was shown around to several of the vocational t r a in ing shops and to the field house. A f t e r sup-per the group re-assembled a t the school and they were shown around to the dormitor ies , which a re called cot tages . Each co t tage houses about 30 boys and a house mother and a house f a the r , who t ry to create as close to a home-like a tmosphere as is possible with this size of group.

TE5 Last Fr iday the Chemis t ry Club

spent a few enjoyable hours in the big city of Detroit . In the morning the Ethyl corporat ion played host to the group, while

the a f t e rnoon was spent a t t h e Engineer ing Division of t h e Chrys-ler Company or a t Br iggs Stadium where Detroi t was p laying Cleve-land. The evening was spent a t the Detroi t Symphony or a t Scur-vy's. Quite a busy day, we'd say!

Tender Jack Wickert who shows the movies f o r the Biology Club was heard to r e m a r k a f t e r a pa r -t icularly bloody scene, " T h e y ought to pay me double fo r th is job!" He mean t i t !

Don Rinkus has joined the r anks of wounded organic s tudents . Ger-r i t Hospers and J im Groters a r e the only other living members of this year ' s class. Norman Siderius is another of those vis i t ing fire-men. He was so excited a f t e r Marge pinned him tha t he acciden-tally set the lab on fire just- to give Harvey Van Wieren a hot-foot .

We mus tn ' t neglect to give our blessing to another couple. We feel t h a t the S e n i o r Lab g a n g gave this romance a big boost when they requested W.H.T.C. to dedicate the song, "Cuddles" to "Shou lde r s" Van Hall . "Lis ten, Nancy, they ' re playing our song." In the opinion of the Biology depa r tmen t , th is may set science back several years .

With the physics classes ' pro-jected t r ip to Chicago to t ake in the Museum of Science and Indus-try, we see a real ly worthwhile enterpr ise . "Shadow" Rutge r s will gladly offer his sen-ices a s guide on a conducted t ou r of Chicago. Stolen Parad ise will not be the least of the a t t rac t ions .

Now tha t the Canoes a r e here we wonder jus t how much we'll be seeing of "T.S ." Harr ison and "Paddleba l l " Fr ieberg .

Hope May Day Celebration

Began Thirteen Years Ago Thir teen years ago, in 1936, the

May Day celebration was intro-duced to t h e Hope College campus by Dr. Elizabeth Lichty, the dean of women. At t h e t ime the cere-monies were held in w h a t w a s called the Sunken Garden, the spot on the campus where the Science building now s t ands : Since the Spring of 1940, the May Day cere-mony has been held in Pine grove, the wooded spot in the center of

the immediate campus. The first three years the queen

and her court were chosen by out-side judges, who based the i r selec-tion on general effect , beauty , and

personal i ty . In 1940 it was decided t h a t a

s tudent vote should be considered in the choice of a campus queen. Consequently all t h e college women of the junior class were voted on, and f r o m the leading ten, the queen and her court were chosen by Dean Lichty, the W A L presi-dent, and the May Day cha i rman . The vote was based on a t t r ac t ive -ness, personali ty, activities, and

scholarship.

When the queen crowned in May, 1947, did not r e tu rn to the campus in September , t h e Hope College May Day Fes t iva l was reviewed, and a f ew changes resul ted. F rom a list of juniors whose scholastic s tandings are C or above, the stu-dent body and the facul ty vote for five college women, us ing as thei r cr i ter ia a t t rac t iveness , charac te r , personal i ty , and par t ic ipat ion in

college activit ies. A commit tee composed of the May Day chair-man, the WAL president , and the Dean of Women count t h e ballots and de te rmine t h e election of the queen and her court . The May Queen is crowned by the president of the Student Council. She par-t ic ipates in the ceremonies a t the May Day banquet and is a gues t of honor a t the M.I.A.A. a thle t ic meet in Kalamazoo the last of May.

"We a r e on the eve of a t re -mendous revolution in philosophi-cal t h o u g h t , " says P ro fe s so r J e a n Wahl , au tho r of the Philosopher's Way. To unders tand the implica-tions of th is s t a t emen t , we should inquire into the background of the cont inui ty of the intel lectual t rad i -tion in which the g r e a t philoso-phers have thought about man and the cosmos. This book does exactly those things, and also approaches the problem in a way which leads to u n d e r s t a n d i n g and the convic-tion tha t philosophy is an adven-ture in ideas, an endless but excit-

ing ques t . Trends in Student Personnel

Work, edited by E. G. Will iamson, makes much of the f ac t t h a t it is the task of colleges and universi-ties to develop the s t u d e n t as a person, a social being, and a citi-zen, r a t h e r than as an intellect

alone. Those who are pract ice teaching

in ea r ly e lementary g rades might

find it useful to know about the new ser ies of books recently ob-tained on group songs and d rama-tizat ions. One l>ook in th is series is entitled Our First Music.

Best sellers usual ly conta in ideas and incidents which paral le l real individual lives in some way. Re-memhrance Rock by Carl Sand-

burd is such a s tory . It is a novel about human beings who lived,

laughed, quarre led, suffered , blas-phemed and dreamed, worshipped and killed, hated and loved with reali ty and passion. As one cri t ic said, " I t is not about the present s i tua t ion , but it t h rows l ight on its present s i tua t ion ." Such a work helps to restore the balance of a confused world and to recall our visions of humani ty .

Hope's ne t squad will f ace i ts f ou r th MIAA opponent th is Sa tu r -day in Kalamazoo. The Kazoo team, which has not lost an MIAA match in many years , will doubt-less. be the toughest competit ion Hope mus t face th is year . Las t yea r Kalamazoo beat Hope 4-3 but did not use her top five men.

In the season opener, Hope de-fea ted Alma 5-2 in an easy match . This was played a t Alma two weeks ago. Last week Hope edged Albion 4-3 in a very close excit-ing match held on the local cour ts . Albion won three of the five singles matches. All of them were won in s t r a igh t sets except the fifth which Albion took in three sets. Hope needed both doubles matches to win. Pecks fo r t and Et terbeck had lit t le t rouble disposing of Fisk and Frever t 6-0, 6-3 in the second doubles. Casteel , Albion's ace, and Gregory played Tirrell and Bar-endse in first doubles. At one t ime in the first set Casteel and Greg-ory led 5-4 wtih Casteel serving. Tirrell and Barendse fought off th ree set points , broke Casteel 's serve, and went on to win the de-ciding match 9-7, 6-3.

Two days la ter Hope traveled to Calvin and took a 9-0 non-confer-ence drubbing. Calvin, who has had the same team for the past three years , looked very good. They won almost all the matches in s t ra igh t sets.

The de fend ing champion Knicks gained a crucial win by edging the F ra t e r s 6-5 in thei r second league game. Behind the s teady pi tching of Vern Sikkema the Knicks took the lead in t h e early innings. Some hits and a few e r ro r s helped the Knicks to a 6-2 lead going into the last of the seventh. The F r a t e r s rallied and pushed in th ree runs. With a man on thi rd and two out, Sikkema came through and s t ruck out the last ba t te r fo r the win.

In thei r first g a m e the Knicks rolled over the Emmies 10-1. I t was the Knicks all the way with Sik-kema pi tching his usual good game.

The Arcadians , also boas t ing a top-notch pi tcher in Chuck Baskin, kept pace with the Knicks with easy victories over the Cosmos and the Emmies . In thei r opener they drubbed the Cosmos 19-1. This in-cluded a 16-run second inning. In the Emmie game the Arcadians took an ear ly commanding lead and coasted to a 10-5 win despite a few wild innings on the par t of Baskin.

The only shutout of the season was pitched by Bud Vande Wege for the F r a t e r s in their opener aga ins t the Cosmos. Aided by some good fielding and t imely hi t t ing, the F ra t e r s scored a run each inning and won 5-0.

In the only other game played the Cosmos and Indies tied 6-6 as darkness hal ted the game. The game will be played a t some f u t u r e

date.

In a four -way meet last week with Calvin, Grand Rapids J . C. and Daven-port-MacLaughl in , Hope won two out of three. They de-feated Calvin and J . C. bu t lost to Davenport . J . C. however beat Davenport , and so through the pe-culiar i t ies of match play scor ing three of the teams won two out of th ree matches . Calvin lost all three . In an earlier match wi th these three schools, Hope had de-fea ted Calvin and Davenport but

lost to J . C.

A f t e r hav ing one MIAA opening g a m e washed out completely and the second one rained out a f t e r two innings, the Hope College base-ball t eam finally opened its MIAA schedule aga ins t the Albion Br i tons a t Albion. Though Hope scored

first, Albion came back in the s ame inning with th ree r u n s and continued on to a 12-4 win. Hope could solve the of fer ings of Albion pi tcher f o r only th ree hi ts unt i l the ninth when they exploded f o u r hi ts fo r two runs .

Meanwhile Albion had combined infield hi ts with numerous Hope e r r o r s to score 12 runs . Bill Ver Hey s ta r t ed fo r Hope and went f o r six innings when he was replaced by Buckout.

The next day, the Dutchmen played host to the Calvin Kn igh t s a t Riverview Park . However Hope could not repea t i ts 4-0 shutout of ear l ie r in the season. Calvin's b ig 3 - run second proved too much fo r the Hope h i t t e r s who cont inual ly stood at the plate fo r t ha t th i rd s t r ike . Hope scored her only run in the seventh when Marema scored on a fielder's choice. Hope t h r e a t -ened in the ninth, but with the bases loaded and two out the Cal-vin second baseman came th rough with a circus catch of Marema ' s line drive to end the game. Don Hof fman pitched good ball fo r the Dutch except fo r the second inning where poor fielding also took i ts toll. Mike Skaalen relieved him in the seventh while Lubbers and Harvey did the catching.

For their third g a m e in as m a n y days Coach Schouten 's men t r a v -eled to Muskegon's Marsh Field to tangle with Muskegon J . C. A f t e r nine innings of play the score read Hope 13, Muskegon 2. In scor ing the 13 runs, Hope blasted two Mus-kegon pi tchers fo r 18 hi ts and took advan tage of 7 e r ro rs . Included in the 18 hits were 4 hi ts by J ack Marema, a home run by Gordy Van Hoven, a triple by Chuck Bucht rup , and two doubles by Tom Van Win-gen.

Ha rdy Ens ing pitched the first th ree innings al lowing no runs and only 2 hits. Buckout took the next th ree giving up 2 runs on 4 hi ts , while Mike Skaalen finished t h e g a m e allowing only one hit.

Th is leaves Hope with a season record of 4 wins and 3 losses. The next home g a m e will be this Sa tu r -day aga ins t Kalamazoo. This will be the regular MIAA game. T h e Dutch dropped a 1-0 verdict to Kazoo ear l ier in the season.
