Pi Kappa Delta held its annual

banquet in the private dining room

in the Dutch Mill restaurant last

Wednesday evening, May (5. Fol-

lowing the meal, Calvin De Vries

was installed as a new member of

this honorary forensic fraternity.

He has done outstanding oratorical

work, winning first place in the

stale oratorical contest with his

oration, "Standards That Stand."

Installation of officers for next

year included Clinton Harrison,

president; Corinne Pool, vice-presi-

dent; Daniel Fylstra, secretary-

treasurer; Andrew Veldhuis, direc-

tor of men's debate; Vivian Tardiff,

"Spiritual Defense." Prof. William

Schrier, head of the Speech depart-

ment, was also present at the ban-

quet which was attended by twenty-

Campus Firemen Ready tor Emergency Ac+ion

At a recent meeting of the cam-

pus firemen, composed of four men

chosen by each fraterni ty, Fire Chief Roy Davis outlined the plan

of action to be followed in the event of an emergency. The cam-

pus has been divided into three

areas, with firemen assigned to a

particular section.

In case of a city-wide emergency,

the campus firemen would have ac-

cess to local fire equipment, but would be completely responsible for the protection of the campus build-ings and the fraterni ty houses.

Chief Davis states, "The war may seem far away from Holland, but surely no harm and only good will result from this program of preparedness."

Hinga Is Speaker at Albany Alumni Meet

Albany Chapter of the Alumni Association held its annual spring banquet at the Scotia Reformed church Monday evening. May 4. The meeting was presided over by the president, Rev. William Buiten-dorp. Professor Milton Hinga spoke to the group on the subject, "My Challenge to the Students of Hope College."

Mothers Honored at Y W Meeting

the YW meeting held in the com mons room. Those girls who were unable to bring their own mothers brought an older friend.

Mary Blair opened the meeting by leading the girls and their guests in an inspirational devotion-al period. Beth Marcus gave a toast to the mothers.

Mrs. Alexander Van Bronkhorst, of Conrad, Montana, gave the ad-dress of the evening. Mrs. Van Bronkhorst is the mother of Ruth Van Bronkhorst, who is a t present a member of the sophomore class. Af ter the conclusion of the formal meeting a social was held.

Blue Key to Install New Members May 27

Tonight Blue Key will tap its new honorary members at the May Day banquet. At the last meeting of the year, on May 27, these new men will be officially handed the reins of the society for the coming year. At that time, they will also choose their officers, with the meet-ing under the direction of the pres-ent members.

There still remains work for the society to do as they balance the ledgers of this year's labor. Prob-ably the most interesting item be-fore them yet is the selection and presentation of their traditional gift, annually given by the society to the school.

It has also been announced by Jack Baas, chairman of the pro-posed sale of defense stamps on the campus, that because of unfore-seen circumstances, this program will not be carried out.

Dorm Cook Presented Gif t by Co-ed Residents

Last week Miss Celia Schepers, cook at Voorhees hall, was present-ed with a set of dresser lamps by Jean Ruiter, house president. The lamps were a gif t f rom all the girls in the dormitory as a token of their appreciation of the fine meals which have been provided during the past year.

Wednesday evening. May 13, the last birthday dinner of the year was held in the dorm. The difmer honored all girls having biittltfays in April, May or June."

Louise Becker, social chairman, announced that plans were being made for the annual junior and senior dinner on Sunday, May 24.

Practice teachers for this semes-ter will also have an opportunity to entertain their teachers a t a dinner to be held on Wednesday, May 27.

Kik Dr. Dame Comesto Campus on May 19

"Tiie Good Priest of the Gaspe"i was the topic of Henry Kik, senior from Grand Rapids, as he spoke to the men of the college at the YM meeting last Tuesday evening. Henry Kik, who is personally ac-quainted with the priest who was converted from Catholicism, told the life story as it was given to him from the lips of this "Martin Luther of Canada."

Jack Yeomans led the opening song service, accompanied on the piano by Charles Moolenaar. Bud Karel led the devotions. Special music was provided by Niles Han-sen with a violin solo.

Next Tuesday evening the men of the college will be privileged to have Dr. Clarence P. Dame, pastor of Bethany Reformed church of Grand Rapids, as their speaker. Dr. Dame, an alumnus of Hope, will bring a message of inspiration and help especially prepared for young men.

Final Mission Drive

During the remaining few weeks of school the Y is endeavoring to collect those mission pledges which still remain unpaid from this past year's drive. Already $550 has been sent away to the Mexican mission, and Prof. Bast urges all students who have not yet paid their pledge to do so immediately to facilitate the complete success of this com-mendable drive.

Among the many items discussed a n d - f a n n e d a t - t h e annual Y re-treat held on May 5 were Orien-tation Week, the Mission Drive, and Prayer Week. Included in the plans for the first week of school will be beach and skating parties. The money which will be given at the mission drive next year will go to the Kentucky mission, according to present Y plans. Several of Hope's seniors are preparing to go there a f t e r graduation to teach and do other kinds of service.

Prayer Week Changed The annual Week of Prayer on

the campus will be held during the second week of February in the next school year. Previously this week of spiritual emphasis had been held during the first week of Feb-ruary. but because it conflicts with the opening of the new semester, and because it is necessary for Dr. Wichers to be away from the cam-pus at this time, the combined cabi-nets have moved to change the date. It is believed that a fuller cooperation can be gained by re-moving such unavoidable conflicts, and thus the students and faculty can be more greatly benefited by this week of prayer.

Council Elections to Be Announced Textbooks close as Hope's annual "Spring Carnival" opens

promptly at 10 a. m. today, and the entire college comes out

to put another successful program of May Day festivities

"in the books." A full card of events insure "never a dull

Refreshments served later ended the club meeting on an enjoyable note.

Jean Ruiter Elected House Board President

At a general house meeting

held recently in Voorhees hall,

Jean Ruiter, M u s k e g o n Heights junior, was elected house president for next year. Jean served on the house board during her f reshman year. During her three years she has been active in ath-letics, winning the women's tennis championship for the past two years. At present she is on the business staff of the

MILESTONE and is chairman of

the annual All-College sing.

Other officers, elected from new

board members, are Mildred Tim-

mer, vice-president; Louise Beck-

er, social chairman; Norma Lem-

mer, secretary; and M a r j o r i e

Emery, treasurer. The remaining newly elected

house board members are seniors Dorothy Renzema and Marion Van Zyl; sophomores Muriel Macke-prang and Marion Sandee; fresh-men, Jayne Smies and Mayneen Jellema. Josephine Fitz and Dor-othy Atkins were chosen to repre-sent the Annex.

At a joint meeting of the old and new boards held in Miss Lichty's room on April 28, the business of governing Voorhees hall was offi-cially turned over to Jean and the new house board members.

Folensbee Takes Over as French Club Prexy

Nola Nies, president of French club for the past year, handed over the gavel to Barbara Folensbee on Wednesday evening when she en-tertained French club a t her home. Other officers installed a t this time were: Vice-president, Mimi Mon-cada; secretary, I rma Stoppels; treasurer, Wendy Rameau.

A f t e r a business meeting in which plans fo r the coming year were discussed, a series of unusual French games were played. Re-freshments, in charge of Persis Parker , were then servod.

games between seniors, juniors,

sophomores, and freshmen will be

a regular attraction; supervising

these activities will be Nancy

Boynton and Dolly Kamps, chair-men in charge of girls' sports.

Something new will have been added to the men's track meet in the afternoon when this year's queen and her court reign over the athletic field to present the various awards as the events are run off. Beginning at one o'clock, the four fraternit ies and the independent athletes will vie for honors in all the events that are included in a regulation track meet. Ribbons will be awarded for the first three places in all the specialties and as per usual the award for the out-standing boy and girl athlete of the day will be presented a t the ban-quet in the evening. Contrary to tradition and due to a shortage of golf balls, it has been necessary to strike the usual golf tournament from the schedule.

In keeping with the trend for changes that seems to permeate this particular May Day, it is ap-propriate that another alteration be instituted, that of the new loca-tion for the c o r o n a t i o n cere-monies in the pine grove just be-hind the president's home. Here, directly following the afternoon's sports, the old queen will crown the new monarch and the new at-tendants to Her Royal Highness of '43 will be duly installed in the place of the outgoing court. At this time the queen will announce the names of those girls who have been received into Alcor, the choices having been made the pre-vious Wednesday night at a special meeting of the society.

This year's ceremonies will be more impressive than ever with a real interest among the student body as regards their individual opinions manifested through a pop-ular election for a candidate to the throne.

As a culmination of the day's activities, the all-college banquet given in Carnegie gymnasium at 7:30 will feature a parody on Shakespeare, s tarr ing Ruth Van Bronkhorst, Janet Bogart, Jane Smies, and Rosanna Atkins. Clin-ton Harrison and Andy Veldhuis, Gordon Girod and John Hains as court jesters will debate on a prop-osition which will please Her Ma-jesty and attendants.

Her Royal Highness will announce the members to Blue Key national honorary society and the results of the student council election. The program also includes a piano duet by Marge Friesema and Ruth Van Bronkhorst and selections by the girls ' glee club.

Alcor Holds Last Meet

Final Alcor business meeting for this year was held Wednesday eve-ning, May 13, a t the home of Peggy Hadden. A t this time new Alcor members were chosen f rom the •girls in the junior class. The names of those selected for membership wil be revealed when Alcor " taps" a t the coronation exercises this evening. This ceremony is as much an attraction as the crowning of the queen.

• * * A Toast to W A L And Long Live the Queen!

Commendation is due the Woman's Activities League for their successful efforts in regaining our rights to crown a junior girl May Day queen of the campus.

Last fall the selection of a queen for tne campus was ques-tioned and criticized as being undemocratic. Later, qualifi-cations were made that the objection would be withdrawn if a new method of selection were used. Throughout the entire year, the members of the WAL board worked on the formulation of a new plan for choosing her royal highness and six members of her court. The plan which was finally approved by the faculty of the college is one which incor-porates the choice of the student body.

Monday morning every student on the campus voted for five junior girls on the basis of popularity, attractiveness, character, and activity. Of the ten girls who received the highest number of votes, the six court members and the May Day queen will be chosen by May Day chairman, Nola Nies, WAL President Doris Vander Borgh, and Dean Elizabeth Lichty. There could hardly be a more democratic way of

choosing a campus queen. When the right of crowning a May Day queen was taken

from the student body, the objection was loud and strong. Now when the right is restored, there should be just as loud and strong praise for the donors, the WAL board.

The Tattler This column has always been re-

garded (don't ask me by whom) as a highly accurate mirror of the in-terests and desires of the public. And consequently no one should be jvercome with astonishment to dis-cover that this week's kernel from .he old familiar cob will consist— among other things — of a lucid account of Gil's chant to Kooiker:

"You know what you promised me, Kooiker. You know what you jrowiiseJ me." Has it anything to io with the frill shortage?

The senior class is proud of its .all bonde president — so much so .hat they composed this yell to

him:

Rah, rah, rah, Toot, toot, toot, Here comes Visser To Annville, Annville In-sti-tute.

As You Leave Me

What can I say to you? What can 1 do? You will be lost to me so very soon! When you march olT to war some blazing noon And 1 stand aching at the sight of you And feel that passionate rush of love anew, 1 will remember, as the echo of a tune. The loveliness of moments stardust-strewn . . . When will we know again what once we knew? There is so little time for loving now! And 1 would tell you, yet not knowing how. How deep and inexhaustible this love of mine. Oh, my beloved, this is heady wine. This life! So let us joyous drink it deep. Laughing. There will be time enough to weep.

HIGH PRICES CHECKED . . .

Washington — (ACP) — College students — because their "income" is relatively "fixed"—should bene-fit more than the average person from the Office of Price Adminis-tration's over-all ceiling order on

prices.

The inflationary spiral has sent retail prices up 19 per cent the last year. Were the spiral to continue, students would tind it tougher and tougher to compete for goods and services in a market glutted with eager buyers.

The ceiling on retail goods goes into effect May 18, while that on services becomes effective July 1. Retailers then must charge no more than their highest March price. Here is what will happen to some important items in the stu-dent budget:

Room and board — If you live in a war-rental area room and board will be controlled. Some two-thirds of the nation's population is included in these areas.

Restaurant m e a l s — No price

control.

C l o t h i n g — Both men's and women's controlled.

Movies and entertainment — No ceilings.

Carfare — No ceilings. Cigarettes, cosmetics, tooth paste,

aspirin — Just a few of the thou-sands of "processed commodities"

on the controlled list.

Laundry, dry cleaning, shoe re-

pairing, etc. — Controlled.

Beauty and barber shop services — No control. The Kovernment does not recognize beauty as a "com-modity," and only services involv-ing commodities are controlled.

You might remember, when the ceilings go into effect, that the or-der does not wipe out price differ-ences between stores.

Quisling's oruer sending 500 Nor-wegian teachers off to the Finnish labor camps in the cramped hold of the S.S. Skjerstad has aroused storms of protest throughout Nor-way. The 500 were among thou-sands who refused to join Norway's Nazi Teachers I'nion, Norges Laer-ersamband.

When the "Nazi slave ship" docked in Trondheim, it was re-ported that all the teachers were sick and two of them had gone mad. Even Quisling satellites pro-tested against resumption of the trip. Provincial Governor Prytz wired Quisling:

"Hygienic conditions on board are extraordinarily bad . . . Many will not be able to lie down at night . . . Many of the teachers are ill . . . The water supply is insuffi-cient . . . Suggest medical exami-nation for all teachers."

The ship was sent on its way a f te r a Quisling physician treated some 100 of the sick.

Phi Tau Nu certainly is buzzing with excitement these days, and not without good reason. Take heed, Les Femmes — measles are catching!!! Fair warning to one Frosh Cosmo, b e w a r e of the measles germ carried from Phi Tau Nu by a popular co-ed.

Any enemy spy wandering around this section without his compass and map would probably think he was in Florida a f te r oggling the myriads of briefly clad females bathing in the Michigan sun. But VanderMay wasn't a member of last Saturday's pilgrimage to the beach. Lieutenant Van Tatenhove has been occupying her time for several days. In about a month, she'll be joining him for better or for worse.

In closing, a toast to our new queen —

"Here's to our new queen. She's true blue; She's a beauty thru and thru, So chug - a - lug, chug - a - lug.

Inside Dope of "Smilin Thru" Hi, Pete —

I did go by the old Lit club last

night and almost had my chance to be a hero — heard a gal in there screamin' for bloody murder — "Keep him off me! Keep him off me!" Well, what would you have thought, huh ? So I rushes in bold-like an ' busted right in on a gang of seniors prancin' around on the stage practicin' their play, "Smilin' Thru." Seems like this here Johnny Westhof keeps a gosh-dern bull and one of the others. John or his critter was up an' chasing poor Jet ts Rylaarsdam (remember he r? ) through the tomato plants. There were a coupla old codgers up there having their daily fight (twice on Sundays). I thought I saw Jim Baar and Chuck Boonstra putt ing on the years lately but I didn't know they could get to be 70 (sev-enty) in such a hurry. Boy, can

they sling the words, too — and not only words.

I shure did lam a lot there. Fer instance, what 's wrong with Blaise Levai? I heard him say, "I have no r ight to marry any woman. Look at me!" I didn't haye time cuz Nola Nies and Gord Girod were up to somethin'. Says he, "It 's such fun doing what one ought not to do." Now what are they up to, huh ? They gotta be watched any-how — Things are happening — an' r ight under the noses of that director and gal which is orderin' everybody around. Albers and Kamps, I guess the names is.

Boy, here I get set to watch the most gloriferous weddin' — when bang, bang, the bride is murdered — oh me! What fun! What a play! By the way, almost forget. I'm a senior, too, and I got tickets to sell.

'Bye, be seein' you, ME.

work for i t? To toughen yourself p h y s i c a l l y ? To t r a i n yourse l f m e n t a l l y for a real j o b in t h e United States Navy? If you are, the Navy wants you to enlist now. You don' t have to quit college. You can stay in college, continue your studies to prepare for active du ty in the air or on the sea.

And your college will help you do i t ! In cooperat ion witn t he Navy, it offers all freshmen and sophomores who are seventeen and not yet twenty, special t rain-ing tha t may win for you the cov-eted Wings of Gold of a Naval Aviation Officer or a commission as a Deck or Engineering Officer.

How to Become an Officer T o get this special Navy training, you enlist now as an Apprentice Seaman. Then you may continue in college, but you will include special courses stressing physical development, mathematics and physics. After you successfully complete calendar years in college, you will be given a classi-fication test .

Aviation Officers If you qualify by this test, you

may volunteer to become a Naval Aviation Officer. In this case, you will be permitted to finish the sec-ond calendar year of college work before you s ta r t your training to become a Flying Officer.

However, a t any t ime during this two-year period, you may have the option to take immedi-ately the prescribed examination for Aviation Officer.. . and, if suc-cessful, be assigned fo r Aviation training. Students who fail in their college courses or who with-draw from college will also have the privilege of talcing the Aviation examination. Applicants who fail to qualify in this test will be or-dered to active duty as Apprentice Seamen.

Deck or Engineering Officers Those who qualify in the classifi-cation test and do not volunteer

for Aviation will be selected for training to be Deck or Engineer-ing Officers. In tha t case, you will continue your college program until you receive your bachelor's degree, provided you maintain the established university standards.

Those whose grades are not high enough to qualify them for Deck or Engineering Officer training will be permitted to finish their second calendar year of college. After this, they will be ordered to du ty as Apprentice Seamen, but because of tne i r college t rain-ing, they will have a bet ter chance for rapid advancement. At any time, if a s tudent should fail in his college courses, he may be o r d e r e d t o a c t i v e d u t y a s an Apprentice Seaman.

FRATERNITIES COMPETE FOR TRACK TROPHY WOMEN'S SPORTS

By Edith Ellen Klaaren

Today's the day when we're all stiff (as in board) because we didn't get out to practice up 'til yesterday. So we're in poor con-dish now, and resolve at once (like we did last year) that next year we'll s t a r t sooner. All of which is typical and perennial. Dolly Kamps and Nan Boynton, together with the individual class captains, will handle the big inter-class meets this A. M. — in relays, dashes, broad jumps, high jumps, and base-ball. Place your s takes now.

We'll cover al! dope P.D.Q., waste no chin music. WAA elections re-sulted. So now Florence Dykema is WAA prexy, Syd MacGregor t reasurer , and Rose Winstrom sec-re tary . New appointees represent-ing the classes on the board are Jean Ruiter, Virginia Ewing, Mil-dred Scholten, and Betty Kamps. WAA has closed up shop for the year, won't meet again 'til fall .

Results of tennis t r ip: At West-ern Sta te our netters lost five sin-gles matches and two doubles. Sally Brannock and Betty Kamps lost their doubles a f t e r two hours of play! Ah, me! Others making the tr ip were Micki Heasley and Hoppy Van A 1st (doubles duo) and Jean Ruiter. That was last week Thursday. Fr iday the troupe went to Charlot te for the all-MlAA meet and met a bit ter fa te . The Heasley-Van Alst combination beat the Al-bion second team, then lost to Ka-zoo number one. the tournament winners. Brannock and Kamps lost out and were eliminated. Ruiter, in

the singles, beat Albion, then lost to the Albion first t eam player, whom she beat last year. Ah! again, bi t ter i rony! And Jean hu-miliated. So here our s tory ends.

But a new beginning, for a f t e r the new girls' tournament here, in which glee clubbers will partici-pate, a team of eight will be sent to have a match with G.R.J.C.

In the novice tournament the play-offs are between Tazelaar and Cross.

Sign up for mixed doubles. Just grab a par tner and sign. (Sounds like the Russian marr iage license bureau.) Gabby VanDis and Micki heas ley in charge.

Sibs emerge victors in the inter-sorority softball league, having four wins and no losses. They took a fo r fe i t f rom the Thetas , and Del-phi took Sorosis in a thril ler a week ago Tuesday. The Delphi-D o r i a n and Sorosis-Thesaurian games of a week from Tuesday de-cide placement in the tourney, and I forecast this:

G. R, Junior Shares Series with Hope, 3-0, 6-3

Hope's diamond a r t i s t s split a home and home series with Grand Rapids J.C. In the first game of the season, Russ DeVette pitched the team to a 3-0 t r iumph. De Vette's pitching was a lmost per-fect. He allowed only two hits and walked only one man. Also, in the second he batted in the first and winning run. Ot teman ' s single with the sacks filled in the fifth put the game on ice.

The second game, a nine-inning affair , played on Lamar field in Grand Rapids, was a dif ferent story. Rosema struck out 13 Dutch-men and had a shutout until the ninth, when the Dutch rallied with three runs. Karel, making his first s t a r t for H o p e , had plenty of trouble but managed to pull him-self out of several tough spots. However, in the eighth, the roof fell in and J.C. pushed over four runs to put the game on ice.

Thin-Clads Place 2nd In 3-Way Meet at Albion

Hope's track team came through with flying colors a t the t r i angular meet a t Albion Wednesday, May 6, placing second with 30% points. Albion swept the field by massing 104 big points, and Adrian trailed

with 29Mi.

This achievement must be noted as exceptional, because the boys were up aga ins t s t rong competi-tion. Albion is the MIAA favorite, and any small inexperienced squad t ha t chalks up 30 points agains t them deserve a bow. This initial success promises be t te r years ahead as most of the men who placed were f reshmen and sophomores.

Following a re summar ies of

Hope places:

Ottoman—2nd in javelin, Fuhs-ton—2nd in discuss, 4th in 220; Slocombe—3rd in 40, Higgs—3rd in shot-put, Kinnison — 3rd fi t broad jump, Moolenaar—2n^i.'^ir?; broad jump and 2nd in r00-y^.-Wgh hurdles. The Hope relay team placed second.

Howard Serves Doubles . . . . . . . . By H. Hoehji

Last year the tennis team went south on a t r ip through the sweet

Georgia and Carolina terr i tor ies . We won three out of four from

schools such as Presbyter ian (we lost to them) . South Carolina (we

didn't play them—it was ra ining) , Catawba, S ta te Teachers college

at Johnson City, Tennessee. (Cutest girl there called Cornel ia) . We

had another scheduled for this year, with matches at schools such as

Presbyter ian, South Carolina, Catawba, S ta te Teachers college. We

sold candy and pop at the high school basketball tournaments , and

were all set to go dur ing spr ing vacation. We had quite a t r ip—During

spring vacation. The money we made was spent to buy new warm-up

sweaters for the team. Tha t ' s those beaut i ful white creat ions by Schia-

perelli the tanned lads of the tennis team are wearing. Aren ' t they

just too, too divine? Are you kidding?

That boy. Van Dis, who s tarred in basketball is playing his first

varsi ty season as first man. He took only one game f rom Culver, but

Culver is like a fish out of water in the MIAA. He and Pra t t . .Last

year a t the MIAA tournament he looked like he jus t got out of bed. I

watched him sleep-walk through his morning 's matches, repeat ing a f t e r every shot he made, " I 'm lucky this morning." How he ta lks! P r a t t doesn't say much. He jus t grins, and takes the next point, too. A f t e r a match agains t them, you feel like the Battle of Dunkerk, "Too little, and too late."

It 's fun playing them though, it really is. They ' re all swell kids. They " t r im the pan t s " off you, and how you love i t! Bra i thwai te gave me two games the second set, and when we would change courts, "You're hi t t ing them well today, but the luck seems to be with me"; "I must have caught you on an off-day on your volleying"; "How are you fixed in the d r a f t ? " — I didn't have a chance.

We are three seniors on the team. Two f reshmen play, too. "Gabby" Van Dis, and Red Wierenga. Watch Lef ty swat his forehand some day, and think how good he will be when his backhand comes up to that . Move over. Lady Macbeth, I'll be walking, too. Bill Moerdyk is the only sophomore playing, and when his shin-splints heal, he'll be a

good man. It 's too bad we can' t get games with other MIAA schools so we

could stop in at Schuler 's on the way home and have some of his steaks, and melba toast . How Hoek ate tha t melba toast!

By the way, before looking at this year 's record, let me hasten to s t ress the importance of the victory of Hoekje and Tappan in the tournament last year. They whipped the Kalamazoo second doubles team in the semi-finals. Three sets it was. What a whipping! We took three games f rom Culver and Pra t t . (Make a note, Miss Brown, com-mercial taken care of.) This year we expect to do bet ter . We'll t ake four games or lose. Are you kidding?

Anyway, we had fun this year, even if Mike Arendshors t played golf in the low 70's, and J.C. beat us twice.

Forget the by line, Ken, I'll waive royalties.

Spirit hit a new high as 125 entries signed up for all events, from the hundred to the mile. At one o'clock today the big push is on. The three fraternit ies each present a power-house, and on no one can be pinned "favorite." The Emmies are defend-ing their title, as the boys f rom 13th and boys from Columbia
