w a t e r ' s posit ion on civil r igh t s and would like to

ask a few ques t i ons about P r e s i d e n t J o h n s o n ' s s t a n d . Sen. . G o l d w a ' e r voted for the civil r i gh t s bills of 1957 and 1960 and voted a g a i n s t t he civil

1 do not think tha t th i s vote can be c o n s t r u e d a i

being an t i -Negro .

As we h a v e seen t h e r e h a s been a c h a l l e n g e of

R I E T V E L D : F i r s t of all, I would l ike to say

we do not doubt tha t Sena to r Go ldwa te r is in sup-port of in tegra t ion and that he ac ted out of d e e p

convic t ion when he vo ted a g a i n s t the civil r i gh t s

It is t r u e that Sen. Go ldwa te r h a s c h a n g e d his mind on s o m e issues , but aga in I cons ide r th is no vice as l o r e as it does not occur ren»e*itively and

LBJ or Goldwater? Debate Continues (Continued f r o m p a g e 3)

R I E T V E L D : Mr . M c N a m a r a in par t i cu la r .

DONIA: I 'm not speak ing of anyone in par-t icular . Sen. Goldwater was s imply saying that some of the decisions m a d e by civilians could h a r e been ba t te r m a d e by mi l i t a ry personnel because of their exper t i se in tha t pa r t i cu l a r a r e a .

R I E T V E L D : Goldwater h a s said tha t co-exis-tence is impossible. What is your response to tha t?

DONIA: I don't know what my response is. but I think his response would be tha t this s i tuat ion is not possible for an endur ing length of t ime and that our u l t imate goal is f r e e d o m and self-deter-mination for all nations.

R I E T V E L D : What is his a l t e rna t ive?

DONIA: F r e e d o m and and se l f -determinat ion for all nations.

R I E T V E L D : That is t rue . If he does not be-lieve in co-existence, wha t is the a l t e rna t ive to co-existence other than w a r ? He did not suppor t the tes t -ban t rea ty or uni la tera l d i s a r m a m e n t .

DONIA: I 'm glad he doesn ' t suppor t uni la tera l d i s a r m a m e n t . I do not bel ieve ei ther tha t we should give up our a r m s before the Hussions.

R I E T V E L D : Then I still would like to ask what the a l te rna t ive would be to co-existence?

DONIA: I would likie to say just a word about the tes t-ban t r ea ty f i r s t . Sen. Goldwater voted aga ins t the test-ban t r ea ty because it would allow the Russ ians to main ta in a super ior i ty which they a l rendy had at the t ime of the t r e a t y in l a r g e nu-clear bombs.

R I E T V E L D : I would like to respond to tha t s t a t emen t by saying tha t most mi l i t a ry men con-sider several well-placed, medium-sized a tomic weapons have m o r e des t ruc t ive power than one of the sup?r bombs.

DONIA: Fine, I accept your mil i tary ' judg-ment . Let ' s see. we were ta lking about co-exist-ence. Let us say fhat we cannot to le ra te ty r ran ica l r eg imes in over two-thirds of the globe for all of t ime. And that our u l t imate goal, not immedia te , not today, not next week, but our u l imate goal should ideaMy include let t ing these people de te r -mine for themselves thei r des t iny . Are you op-posed to that concept?

R I E T V E L D : No, I don' t think tha t the Dem-ocrat ic adminis t ra t ion has eve r said tha t it was in opposition to such a concept .

DONIA: Does the D e m o c r a t i c adminis t ra t ion support co-existence.

R I E T V E L D ; I think it does.

DONIA: And then it supports r eg imes wi th

Communis t dictat ion peoples? Is that cor rec t?

R I E T V E L D : T h e Republ ican admin is t ra t ion also supported r eg imes u n d e r C o m m u n i s t domina-tion. I don ' t see how you c a n label this as a Dem-

ocrat ic faul t solely.

DONIA; The D e m o c r a t i c r eg ime does not sup-port the self de te rmina t ion of all peoples then .

Is that co r rec t?

R I E T V E L D ; I did not say tha t . It suppor ts self-determinat ioq.

DONIA; It does . I see.

R I E T V E L D : Yes, and what does Mr. Gold-water plan to do if he becomes pres iden t to he lp self de te rmina t ion?

DONIA; Well, I think we can think that h e will a t t empt to achieve se l f -de terminat ion for the peoples of Vie tnam, someth ing which w e a re not now doing.

Final Statements

DONIA: We h a v e two m e n runn ing for the pres idency: this is obvious.

We ask you to con t r a s t these two men . Look at Mr. Johnson . He h a s held off ice for about eleven months now and in the pas t h a s had some quest ionable dea l ings with such m e n a s Billie Sol Es tes and Br>bby Baker . T h e r e is a t r emendous migrat ion of those peoole to the Democra t i c pa r ty .

Look at his record in foreign a f fa i r s . Look at Vie tnam, a w a r be ine fought with no s tated pur -pose. Look at the Atlant ic Alliance, slowly, e rad -ua^y doter iora t ing. Look a t United S ta tes ' p res-tige ab^o^d, lower than it w a s before .

Fu r the r , look at his domes t i c p r o g r a m . T h e federal burp'Hirra^v. which is cons tant ly snreading , the noverty bill which amoun t s to a collection of pronosals, put toge ther into one big p a c k a g e a n d caiTed th r t iend of the dole soon to c o m e . Look at some of his avoiding of the issues. Look at the

views of his runn ing m a t e . And then w e ask y o u . to con t r a s t this wi th

the oositive p r o g r a m of Sen. Goldwate r . that of declar ing our intension on the in ternat ional scene to oooose Communi-sm w h e r e it t h r ea t ens to ad-vance. Look at h is oronosal for domes t i c imnrove-ment . for m o r e individual l iber ty and g r e a t e r rea1 i7a f ion of individual ootential . We ask you to suoport for the o res idency of the Uni ted Sta tes , Sen. Ba r ry Goldwate r of Arizona.

R I E T V E L D : I would like to s ay th^ t if Mr . Johnson h a s question-able dea l ings with such oeople as Bobby BaVer. Sen. Goldwater . ner-haos iunwittin?ly. h a s aue«t ; onahle deal ings with t h e e x t r e m i s t s w h H i the A m e r i c a n people m u s t r e j ec t .

DeVries Heroes Meet Mate I by Bryce Butler

" R e u b e n , R e u b e n " is the s to ry of twen t i e th -cen tu ry A m e r i c a as a de g e n e r a t e society .

Through the useful and c lever device of s t a r t i n g with the blow-b y - b o w account of one who " r o s e " f r o m being a chicken f a r m e r in Connect icut to being some th ing of a soc al i te a m o n g the new th rong of c o m m u t o r s who took over his quiet rus t ic village. Author P e t e r Do Vries d e m o n s t r a t e s the c h a n g e in A m e r i c a f rom the ru r a l to the p re sen t , m o d e r n u r b a n ex i s tence F r a n k Spofford himself ' t h e r i s e r ' m a n a g e s to keep f rom be ng im-

m e r s e d in the new Amer i can w a y of life, but his g r a n d d a u g h t e r . G e n e v a , b e c o m e s to ta l ly m o d e r n and it is a round her tha t the s to ry revolves .

The en t i r e t h e m e of the s to ry is told outr ight in the first two sen t ences . "Given a little money , educat ion and social s t and ing , plus, of course , the nece s sa ry leisure, a n y man with any s tyle at all can m a k e a m e s s of his love life. And given these, plus a little of the right •o self real izat ion that goes with

modern life, a little of the old self ana lys i s , a n y woman with a n y gumpt ion at all can m a k e a s h a m b -hles of her m a r r i a g e . "

The s h a m b l e r . in this case , is G e n e v a and the en t i r e d e g e n e r a c y of a m o d e r n Babylon is po r t r ayed th rough her idyll and that of her town.

For the r ea son that it se t s out to judge an en t re society, the novel is a huge work, a l though it isn't real ly very long. The s to ry ach ieves its size by being b road , a s s u m p t i v e and complex , in de-l ibe ra te p a n t o m me of a broad , as-s u m p t i v e and complex society .

var ious a s p e c t s of the society it is Because the book is a sa t i re , the

sa t i r i z ing work their way into the s ty le and a re c lear ly pointed out . Fo r ins tance , the do-it-yourself F reud ian a n a l y s i s so popular a m o n g A m e r i c a n s is not only a l a rge f ac to r in the n a r r a t i v e , but also a m a j o r e l e m e n t in the plot. And this is all on a superf ic ia l level.

Whole pages a r e wr i t ten almost en t i re ly in psychological ca tch ph rases . Indeed, the impor t ance of words, or m e r e words, is s t r e s sed throughout the book. The whole s to ry is wr i t ten in var ious sor ts of lingo, indicat ive of the ex te rna l i za -tion to which we have fa l len .

The book goes by s t a g e s f rom the r a t h e r light h e a r t e d mood of the f i r s t sect ion to the sense of person-al ruin that de scends ove r all the m a j o r c h a r a c t e r s by the end of the book. The conclusion is depres-sing.

The only hope shown in th<4

en t i r e book is the l imi ted one of-fe red by the fac t that while F r a n k Spofford does fall into the decad-

ent society and picks up s o m e of its ways , his na t ive in te l l igence and the tension between the new socie ty and his b a c k g r o u n d a re enough to keep h im f rom being lost en t i r e ly . Thus, the only hope for A m e r i c a in gene ra l is pe rspec t ive , which is what most of the people

in " R e u b e n " lack.

We m u s t avoid total i m m e r s i o n in m o d e r n , u rban society. We mus t view even this intel l igently and judge w h e t h e r it is good or bad . and. p e r h a p s above all. we m u s t re-s e rve our s e n s e of h u m o r in the f ace of a society that m a k e s deadly se r ious issues of t r ivia l i t ies .

And we m u s t take th is all ser-iously. The usual e s c a p e routes a r e closed. De Vries ' l i ke F r a n k S p o f f o r d ' is not a blind reac t ion a ry , but ne i the r is he a sympa th -et ic humor i s t mere ly point ing out the foibles of a society that he bas ica l ly bel ieves in. He is r a t h e r the i m p l a c a b l e cri t ic , holding up our l ives for us to look a t in all their wrong colors and tac i t ly ask ing us whe re we think we a re and where a r e we going.

OPE COLLEGE

anchor OLLAND, MICHIGAN

Published weekly of the college year except vacation, holiday and exam-ination periods by and for the students of Hope College, Holland, Mich., under the authority of the Student Senate Publications Board.

Entered as second class matter at the post office of Holland, Michigan, at the special rate of postage provided for in section 1103 of Act of Con-gress, Oct. 3, 1917, and authorized Oct. 19, 1918.

Subscription: $3 per year. Printed: Zeeland Record, Zeeland, Michigan. Member: Associated Collegiate Press, Michigan Collegiate Press Assn. Represented for national advertising by National Advertising Service. Office'.Ground Floor of Graves Hall. Phone: 396-2122.

HO P E C O L L E G E A N C H O R has been basically conservative and Republ i can in its political out look for three years

and it will cont inue to be so for at least one more year.

T h e reasons for this posit ion are varied, but are fundamenta l ly grounded in a belief essentially inherent in the f o u n d i n g principles >1 the nat ion: a belief in the right of indiv-

idual freedom and the necessity of individual d isc ip l ine and participation.

In a campus s ituation in which such a belief is especially emphasized, the anchor cannot he lp but stand in oppos i t ion to na-tional polit ical principles which reduce the power and freedom of the individual through increasing control of the federal government .

Therefore , the anchor cannot support L y n d o n Johnson's candidacy for the presi-dency of the U n i t e d States. T h e principles of the party which he represents and the principles of the man are too conducive to the m o v e m e n t towards increasing socialism which has characterized the last 30 years of

national politics.

DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATIONS of the past three decades, inc lud ing the administrat ion of Mr. Johnson's last 11

months , have shown an all too sweeping dis-regard for the const i tut ional foundat ions of the country and an all too paternalist ic at-t i tude to the individual citizen, under the assumpt ion that the federal government can take better care of the individual than the

indiv idual himself .

In the national e lect ion, the alternative to tlie support of L y n d o n Johnson is the support of Barry Goldwater , a m a n whose principles are based on bel iefs in the rights of the individual and const i tut ional govern-ment .

As the o p p o n e n t of a man w h o s e election would m e a n the cont inued march to a wel-fare state and as the proponent of the strong principles u p o n which the nat ion was found-ed. Barry Goldwater remains the better of the two alternatives offered in the nat ional elec-

tions.

However , whi l e Mr. Goldwater may be the belter choice in the nat ional contest, the fact remains that some of the practical annli-cal ions he has recently made w i th sound const i tut ional principles have not been par-ticularly satisfactory, as in the cases of his stands on the use of a tomic weanons and federal grants-in-aid, as discussed in last week's

anchor.

ALTHOUGH IT IS EVIDENT that Mr. Goldwater has relied on the advice of a staff of highly competent assistants

for the actual working out of his program, the the actual working out of his programs, the concern of many Americans about the prac-tical so lut ions so far derived from Goldwater's principles still remains.

T h e anchor shares that concern, whi le still m a i n t a i n i n g that Goldwater is the better of the two men r u n n i n g for the presidency.

T h e choice in the nat ional election is clear. However , in the mock e lect ion on cam-pus next week, the students have an oppor-tunity to express their concern about the presidential choice by supnort ing through write-in votes a man whose actions have dem-onstrated strong conservative principles and have displayed a positive talent for evo lv ing workable programs from those principles, a talent which Sen. Goldwater has not ade-(juately displayed as yet.

In this way. students can express their conservative convict ions and their concern over the Republ i can candidate w i thout be ing forced to jo in the Democrat ic c a m p by de-fault.

Therefore , the anchor nominates George R o m n e y as a write-in candidate for president in the fnock' election: '

WHY MR. R O M N K Y ? B E C A U S E Mr. Romney's principles, listed at the left, are principles based

on strong conservative convict ions . In a speech n o m i n a t i n g Mr. R o m n e y as a favorite son candidate lor president at the Republ ican convent ion at San Francisco, Michigan Con-

gressman Gerald Ford Jr. said, " T h i s m a n bel ieves that the responsibil i ty for meet ing h u m a n problems lies first wi th the indiv idual , second with voluntary action at the commun-ity level, third by action at local and state governmenta l levels and only if these f a i l -by the federal government ."

B E C A U S E Mr. Romney ' s past t w o years as head of the Michigan state government have been marked by practical programs br ing ing prosperity and long-needed improve-

ment in the state.

U n d e r the R o m n e y administrat ion, new jobs in the state were increased by 98.000. A debt of S85 mi l l ion , bui l t up dur ing 14 years of democratic government , was wiped off the books and replaced by a surplus of SfiO mi l l ion . Efficiency, economy and good management cut unnecessary spend ing by SI.8 mi l l ion. Al lo tments for higher educat ion were increased by S27 mi l l ion .

B E C A U S E R o m n e v has gained the trust of the people . In 1%2 he succeeded in becouj-ing the first Republ i can governor of Michi-

gan in M years.

For these reasons, the anchor herebv calls for support for the write-in vote for George

R o m n e y on Oct. 28.

Hope Scores 21 Against Alma

Hyink, Bekkering Lead Contest by J a m e s Mace

With H a r l a n Hyink throwing bul l seyes and J i m Bekker ing turn-ing in a t r e m e n d o u s runn ing per-f o r m a n c e a f t e r miss ing two g a m e s , Hope ' s F ly ing D u t c h m e n c a p t u r e d the i r f i rs t g a m e of the season with a 21-8 v ic tory over the Alma Scots las t S a t u r d a y a t Riverv iew P a r k .

Hyink, who s e e m s to have re-ga ined the f o r m t h a t m a d e h im AI1-MIAA las t y e a r , eng ineered all t h r e e touchdown dr ives , pas s ing for two goals and scor ing the o the r one h imsel f . Bekker ing r e tu rned to his ha l fback spot and responded with 49 y a r d s rush ing for the a f t e rnoon .

Hope went into the lead for the f i r s t t ime this s eason late in the f i r s t q u a r t e r when they took the ball on the i r own 43-yard line and m a r c h e d 57 y a r d s for the score . Hyink p a s s e d 31-yards to Rog K r o o d s m a for the t a l ly .

A dr ive in the second period, se t up by a 25-yard pass f rom Hyink to Bruce Menning, gave the Dutch the ball on the Alma one-yard s t r i pe , but a pena l ty and a f u m b l e by Hyink, r ecove red by A l m a ' s

T o m Gray , killed the opportuni ty . F r e s h m a n c o r n e r b a c k V e r n

P lagenhoef set up the second Dutch touchdown when he in te rcep ted a Mike Knowlton pass and r e t u r n e d

it 33 y a r d s to the Alma e ight -yard line. Af ter t h r e e runn ing plays fa i led , Hyink th rew his second touchdown p a s s to Kroodsma and Hope led 13-0.

A l m a s t a r t e d a dr ive ea r ly in the second hal f , but Hope s ta l l ed the m a r c h when they s topped the Scots at the Dutch 23-yard l ine in a four th and two s i tuat ion.

Hope then put toge the r its best sus t a ined dr ive of the season when they t rave led 77 y a r d s to score with Hyink p lunging the f ina l ya rd . The dr ive w a s highl ighted by the f ine running of Keith Abel and Bekker ing. Hyink then f i red to Bill Hul tg ren for the two-point con-vers ion.

A l m a ' s lone six-points c a m e in the fourth period when Knowlton e luded five Hope t a ck l e r s and f i red a long pass to F r e d Scha i tbe rge r . Scha i tbe rge r g r a b b e d the ball be-hind two Hope de fende r s and wal-loped the res t of the w a y for the touchdown. Overa l l the play mea-su red 89 y a r d s f rom s c r i m m a g e .

La te in the g a m e , a f t e r the Scots had lost the ball inside the Hope f ive , Rog Abel was tack led in the end zone for a sa fe ty , and tha t ended the scor ing .

With a 1-1 MIAA record , Hope p lays Adrian t omor row at Adr ian .

P e r f o r m i n g before the h o m e f a n s for the f i r s t t i m e this season , Hope ' s new soccer t e a m r a n g up i ts th i rd consecu t ive win with a 5-1 t r i u m p h over Oakland Univer-s i ty of Roches t e r , Mich, at River-view P a r k las t S a t u r d a y .

T h e D u t c h m e n began their g a m e d u r i n g ha l f - t ime of the Hope-Alma footbal l g a m e and P i e r r e Sende quickly got the h o m e t e a m off to a

one goal lead when he blas ted in a p a s s f r o m J a m i e Zeas . The D u t c h m e n d o m i n a t e d the r e s t of the ha l f - t ime proceed ings al though they did not score again .

When the g a m e was r e s u m e d a f t e r the footbal l g a m e , cen te r Zeas booted h o m e Hope 's second coun te r on a pass f r o m Benne t t A m e t e f e and Hope w a s never stop-ped a f t e r t ha t .

Sende got his second goal ea r ly in th i rd period when he picked up a rebound on a shot by Ray Cooper and eas i ly kicked it into the net . Allan Griswold scored an-o the r Dutch goal in the fou r th per iod on a solo e f for t and A m e t e f e

ta l l ied the f ina l m a r k e r on a pass f r o m J i m P ie rpon t .

Oakland scored its only goal la te in the final period when the t e a m s coach c a m e off the bench and beat subs t i t u t e goal ie J i m Boelkins f r o m close in. Regu la r goa l t ender Br ian Bailey missed the g a m e due to a leg in ju ry .

On Tuesday a f t e rnoon , the Dutch-m e n played the Calvin f rosh at G r a n d Rapids for the second t i m e and Hope a d m i n i s t e r e d its second 5-0 whi tewash to the Knights .

Flying Dutch To Play Adrian

Afte r succes s fu l l y de f ea t i ng Al-m a . 21-8, las t S a t u r d a y for the i r f i r s t v ic tory of the season , the F ly ing D u t c h m e n t r ave l to Adr i an

t omor row to ba t t l e the Adr ian Bull-dogs in Hope ' s f inal away g a m e of the c a m p a i g n .

By v i r tue of the i r win over the Scots, the Dutch evened the i r rec-ord at 1-1 in the MIAA, wh le Adr ian w a s blas ted by the Olivet Comets , 20-71 to d rop into the l eague ce l l a r . It w a s the second l eague loss for the Bulldogs who were de fea t ed by l eague co-cham-pion Albion, 36-0, two weeks ago.

Hope, on the o ther hand , s e e m s to have rega ined the f o r p tha t c a r r i e d it to five s t r a ght wins las t y e a r and with a few of the reg-u l a r s back in the line-up for tomor -row ' s con tes t , the D u t c h m e n should m a k e it a long day for the Bulldogs.

Las t S a t u r d a y the D u t c h m e n had h a l f b a c k J i m Bekker ing , t a ck l e J o n Nor ton and gua rd Ken P o s t m a l e t u r n to the s t a r t i ng t e a m and all t h r e e tu rned in top-notch p e r f o r m -ances .

Bekker ing led all ball c a r r i e r s wi th 49 y a r d s ga ined in 13 a t t e m p t s . Nor ton and P o s t m a p rov ided s t r o n g line suppor t for Hyink and allowed

h im to ge t enough t ime to ge t h i s pas ses off .

However , the D u t c h m e n a r e still without the se rv ices of John S t a m , a defens ive tack le who has ye t to s ee ac t ion this season. Fu l l back T o m DeKuiper , the t e a m ' s l ead ing g round g a i n e r th rough the Whea ton g a m e and h a l f b a c k Bill Keur a r e s t i l l a m o n g the in ju red and w o n ' t s ee act ion tomor row.

DeKuiper rece ived a s e v e r e k n e e i n ju ry and is still on c ru t ches , vvhi'e Keur is r ecover ing f r o m a shoulder s e p a r a t i o n . G u a r d Bob White is also on the a m b u l a n c e squad and m a y not play.

E v e n with ihe r a s n of i n ju r i e s which h a s p lagued the t e a m s ince the beg inn ing of the season , the

combina t ions of Hyink to Hul tg ren , Kroodsma and xMenning should keep the Bulldog de fens ive back-field hopping.

Hyink, who is r ap id ly f inding

himself , connec ted on 10 of 24 passes aga ins t A l m a for 130 y a r d s and two touchdowns and should m a k e coach Russ DeVet te jus t a s happy tomor row.

Adrian, meanwhi l e , has m a n a g e d only two touchdowns in four g a m e s and with a t enac ious Hope de fense led by such men as Rog Abel, Tom Cousineau and M a x Schipper , t he

Bulldogs will have a tough t ime moving the ball along the g round .

As the res t of the schedu le s h a p e s up. t h e r e is one thing of in t e res t to note . Should Hope d e f e a t Al-bion next S a t u r d a y dur ing Home-coming and should K a l a m a z o o win also, the s a m e th r ee t e a m s which tied for the t i t le las t y e a r will be tied for f i rs t p lace aga in .

The c i r c u m s t a n c e s could be al-most ident ical , with Hope hav ing lost to K a l a m a z o o and then com-ing on to win the res t of the i r

VanderWerf Discusses Center To Meet Demands of Campus

The dr ive for a new Student Cul-tu ra l • Recrea t iona l Center w a s launched last F r iday when the Student Union Board me t with P r e s i d e n t Calvin Vande rWer f .

Twelve s tuden t s and Dr. Vander-Werf d iscussed the possibil i t ies of obta in ing such a cen te r in the n e a r fu tu re .

" T h e board of t r u s t ee s , admin-is t ra t ion and s tudents a r e unani-mous ly ag reed tha t we need a s t u d e n t c e n t e r , " the pres iden t told the s tuden t s . "But good, honest , down-to-ear th work is needed .

" I n one building we can m e e t s o m e of the most p ress ing needs of the c a m p u s , " said Dr. Vander-Werf. He proposed tha t a new s tuden t cen te r might include a t h e a t e r and d r a m a t i c s workshop, record l ib ra ry and music- l is tening room, a p e r f o r m i n g and audience room, an a r t gal lery for d isplay, r e ad ing r o o m s and act ivi ty rooms

obta in the building, accord ing to Dr . Vande rWer f : f i rs t , t he s tudents m u s t convincingly es tab l i sh a need for the cen te r , and secondly, the back ing of eve ry s tuden t on c a m -pus mus t be ob ta ined .

"LET US BEGIN" — Dr. Calvin VanderWerf consults with the mem-

bers of the Student Union Board as they set up plans for the estab-

lishment of the new Student Cultural Recreational Center.

f f T j l N ITIUSIASM IS N O T E N O U G H . rJ Once the student wishes arc made un-

mistakably known, the enthusiasm directed at being heard must be turned to p i a d i c a l eflorts to make the n e w bui ld ing a ( o n n e t e reality."

- H o p e Col lege anchor, Oct. 9, I9()4

N o w that tlie yel l ing, the writing, the

hoopla, the demonstrat ing lor a new student

(uhural-recreat ional center have died down,

the (jucstion remains: Where d o we g o from

here?

I he answer to the quest ion, like the

answers to so many (juestions, is far from

simple. On the indiv idual level, the an-

swers vary. Student members of p l a n n i n g

commit tees are laced with the problems of

setting up leasible methods of pushing the

project a long.

Members ol the administrat ion are faced

with the problems ol drawing up workable

plans lor the bu i ld ing itself. And the mem-

bers ol the board of trustees arc laced with

the final decis ion on the possibility of build-

ing the new student center in the near future.

But students w h o are not directly involved

with the actual p lann ing of the bu i ld ing it-

sell are also faced with a problem: the prob-

lem ol proving that their interest in a new

student cultural-recreational center runs deep-

er than letter-writing and demonstrat ing .

f f r | i H E P R O B L E M can be stated in o n e word: finances."

—President Calvin A. VanderWerf

Since the final o u t c o m e of all the plan-

ning on the new center does depend on

the money avai lable for the project, the

most conv inc ing ev idence of sincere student

desire lor the new b u i l d i n g wou ld be a con-

tribution from the s tudent body to he lp in

:II least a small way to pay for the center.

In comparison to the total amount need-ed to f inance the s tudent center, the S3,000 goal of the Student Center Campaign Fund ( o m m i t t e e may appear paltry. Rut if 1550 tradit ionally broke students will take the l ime and effort to raise several thousand dol-lars in lour weeks, they will be providing the most concrete expression of their responsible interest possible.

In essence, the proposal ol the s tudent ( o m m i t t e e in i t iat ing tlie f u n d campaign is s imple: an average of two dollars from every s ludent. Members of organizations such as the Iraternities and sororities may wish to raise their share of the money through spe (ial projects of their own.

Fund raising projects open to the entire student body will provide other opportun-ities to contribute.

Two- inch buttons will g o on sale dur ing homecoming , with profits go ing into the cam-paign hind. T h e buttons , bearing the slo-gans "SCSC" (Student Cultural Social Cen-ter) and "Our posi t ion, no higher tui t ion," will offer a way in which students can con-tribute to the campaign fund and also ex-press supuort for the drive for the next stu :lent (enter and the request for a s top to tuit ion increases.

Wi th the large number of people pour-ing into town for the H o m e c o m i n g weekend, the sale of gasol ine to all members of the student body and a lumni w h o have a car can oiler the opportuni ty of adding a sub-stantial a m o u n t to the (ampaign fund.

EA C H O F T H E FACE TS ol the campaign drive offers a way in which the students of H o p e Colleue can join together for

a eonunon cause. T h e success of each pro-ject depends upon the wil l ingness of every

...meinbei of the, s tudent bpdy lo take 4m ac-tive interest in the col lege. •

Every a lumnus returning to the campus should be greeted by a sea of blue and i«oId buttons proudly sported by H o p e students declaring their support for important col lege (ampaigns .

Every motorist enter ing H o l l a n d next weekend should discover that there is on ly one place in town where the d i scerning Hope-he will buy gas during H o m e c o m i n g .

Every A lb ion Briton ventur ing in to Riv-erview Park must make no mistake about whose home territory he is invading , since

every Hope D u t c h m a n should be identif ied

bv a blue and gold button .

II H o p e Col lege students show the uni-

fied interest needed to make the campaign a

success, one of the finest displays of respon-

sible part ic ipation and proud s tudent sup-

port of <i va luable drive can be accompl ished.

II H o p e Col lege students refuse to jo in

the student center campaign fund efforts,

they will unfortunate ly show that their re-

quests for a new student center consist of

little more than hot air.

During the last m o n t h the s tudents have

shown a great deal of promise for finally

becoming the unified group needed to push

lor mature act ion. If the s tudents wil l work

to make the s tudent center campa ign f u n d

drive a success, that promise will at last begin

to make the dreams of an active, vital cam-

pus a reality.
