Jouppi heads Legal Aid The townsperson or student in

Holland who can't afford an attor-ney's fee formerly had no pro-gram to turn to for help. But the establishment of a new county-funded Bureau of Legal Aid has changed this, according to John Jouppi, newly hired Legal Aid Director for Ottawa County.

THE PURPOSE of the pro-gram, which is the first full-time county-supported one in Hol-land's history, is to. provide assis-tance for persons who are experi-encing legal difficulties but cannot afford legal counsel.

A former Bureau of Legal Aid supported by the Department of Social Services operated from March 1972 to July of last year but was dissolved after administra-tive conflicts and a breakdown of communication in the Department.

People in Holland saw the need for a Legal Aid program to fill the vacuum created by the discon-tinuation of the previous one, Jouppi said.

HE SAID that area attorneys and decision makers in the county looked upon legal aid as a good thing and felt strongly enough about it to organize a program. They found that a legal aid pro-gram was within the financial realm of the county and went to work to develop one.

According to Jouppi, a major part of his job as director of legal aid involves judging the eligibility qualifications of people applying for aid.

ECONOMIC resources and the "type and merits" of applicants' requests are the criteria used to determine who may or may not receive aid. "An applicant must show an identifiable legal problem rather than simply a personal vendetta against someone," Jouppi said.

Clients come from all classes and ethnic groups. The majority of clients are women and many people who apply for aid are young people involved in debtor-

The Kenneth Jewell Chorale, a 40-voice virtuoso ensemble, will be featured in concert tonight at 8:15 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial Chapel as part of the Great Perfor-mance Series sponsored by the Holland Concert Association and the Hope College Cultural Affairs committee.

Hope graduate Steve Wykstra will be on campus next week to present a series of lectures on "Descartes, Newton and the Scientific Revolution."

On Wednesday, Wykstra's topic will be "Toward a Critique of Experimentalism." The lecture will follow a dinner at 6 p.m. in Phelps Conference room. At 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Wykstra will speak on "The Cartesian Revolu-tion."

lished a national reputation as adjudicator-clinician-conductor of choral festivals.

He holds a B.S. from Eastern Michigan University and an M.M. from the University of Michigan. From 1949 to 1964 he was Con-ductor of Choirs at the National Music Camp at Interlochen and for 14 years he was the associate director of the Rackham Sym-phony Choir. He has taught music in the public schools of Michigan for 30 years.

anchor editor resigns post

In a memo to Student Com-munications and Media Com-mittee chairman Dr. James Seeser, Robert Eckert has announced his resignation from the post of editor of the anchor, effective at the end of the current semester.

Persons interested in assuming the position during second semes-ter should contact Seeser as soon as possible.

creditor problems, he added. APPROXIMATELY ten to 15

college students have used the services of the Legal Aid Office so far this year. "Some students who have 'been arrested on drug charges come in thinking they can get aid here. But we send them to the public defender. We deal only in civil cases not criminal ones," Jouppi explained.

"Some people think that legal aid is a form of free legal advice for persons too lazy to get jobs. However when I came to Holland, I quickly realized that there are a large number of people here who are overworked." He gave the example of elderly people on a fixed income who have served the community and now must look back to it for financial help with legal problems.

WORKING WITH low income persons in need of legal advice is nothing new for Jouppi, a recent graduate of University of Detroit Law School.

In Detroit, he organized his own law clinic associated with the school of law plus several others including a landlord-tenant clinic and a criminal clinic in conjunc-tion with the state police depart-ment.

"These were oriented to the practical approach to law. It was a very fortunate experience." Al-though Jouppi terms Holland as a "big switch" from Detroit, " the clients are not that much differ-en t -poor people have the same problems wherever you go."

On Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. the Hope Band will show its more serious side when it performs its winter concert, according to Band Director Dr. Robert Cecil, asso-ciate professor of music. "The program promises to be an inter-esting one from several stand-points," Cecil stated.

WITH THE help and advice of Manager of Theater Facilities Michael Grindstaff and Dr. Jam^s Toevs, associate professor of physics, Cecil and his musicians will be attempting to brighten the acoustics in the main theater of the DeWitt Cultural t e n t e r with the use of newly-constructed re-flective panels to be suspended over the band.

Cecil explained that the audi-torium, built primarily for thea-ter, needs some way of containing and reflecting the sound of music groups and it is hoped that this experiment will be the beginning of an improvement in the acous-tics for concerts.

FEATURED will be a perfor-mance by Charles Aschbrenner, associate professor of music.

Aschbrenner will be playing a patriotic battle piece for piano and band by Louis Gottschalk. The piece, which is built on patri-otic tunes, was performed for President Abraham Lincoln with the composer as pianist.

Greg Wortley will perform Gor-don Jacob's Fantasia for Euphoni-' um and Band. There will also be a performance of Transitions, written by Henk Badings, one of the foremost Dutch composers.

AN ADDED feature will be a commemoration of the 100th an-niversary of the birth of Charles Ives, one of America's most origi-nal and innovative composers. According to Cecil, not as widely known is the fact that Ives was a very successful insurance agent. The band will play Ives' "Country Band" March, a parody of a per-formance by a country band.

In recognition of Ives' success in the world of insurance. Dale Van Lente, a local insurance agent and part-time instructor in the business department, will conduct another Ives march, March Inter-collegiate.

Foundation grant cited

Development fund rises Despite the lagging economy's

effect on the pocketbooks of alumni, total giving for the first four months of this year increased by 34 percent according to Direc-tor of Development Kurt Van Genderen.

THE INCREASE was largely the result of one grant of $160,000 from the Andrew Mel-lon Foundation, who invited Hope to submit a request for funding and selected the college from among all other GLCA col-leges to receive the grant.

Despite the overall increase, funds for operating costs dropped 24 percent from last year. The tlrop-off is due mainly to the tight economy. Van Genderen said, coupled with the fact that letters soliciting funds were mailed out later this year and many contribu-

tors have not yet responded THE CAPITAL Fund division

of the development office showed a 40 percent increase in contribu-tions from last year but Van Genderen also attributed this rise to the grant. "Without the grant the percentage would have been much lower. The economy is af-fecting everyone, especially lai^e foundations," Van Genderen said.

The only other marked in-crease in donations was in the area of planned giving which includes wills, bequests and annuities. "Gifts for the first four months of this year already equal those of all of last year," Van Genderen said. "We've been doing a lot of work in this area, especially with large foundations."

FUNDING WILL be channeled into four m^jor projects: the $3.2

million physical education facili-ty, the completion of Lubbers Hall, the renovation of Voorhees Hall and the Hope Heritage Fund which provides funds for all col-lege scholarships.

According to Van Genderen, of the $3.2 million needed for com-pletion of the physical education center, $500,000 has been raised with $2.7 million expected to come from alumni and outside organizations.

STUDENT CONGRESS has set up a task force to solicit funds from students for the Build Hope Fund, the college's capital devel-opment program.

A fund raising campaign, simi-lar to the one four years ago, will be kicked off second semester, Van Genderen said.

Durfee develops 'unity, personal atmosphere' Durfee resident Larry Wisner.

THE FIFTH article states that any committee decision which is petitioned by at lenst 20 percent of the community will result in a dorm meeting, and the last three articles deal with passing, rejecting and amending committee deci-sions and the constitution.

The committee, chaired by Mc-Connon, has complete control over the five dollar per person dorm dues. They have' appro-priated money for a party with Gilmore, are in the process of puchasirfg new lobby furniture

and are planning to establish a 3

judicial board. DR. ROBERT Elder, associate

professor of political science, has found Durfee's environment inter-esting enough to include the sub-ject in his course "Political and Social Thought." Several of his students are investigating various aspects of the Durfee situation as a part of their term research proj-ect. Demarest is advising their efforts.

Rob Pocock, of Elder's class, is looking at the effects of the ex-tensive roommate pairing in Dur-

fee on the basis of the Meyers-Briggs personality test. Pocock said that Durfee probably could not have reached its present con-dition without Demarest. A simi-lar program in another dorm would not work without a similar driving force, he opined.

The results of these projects will hopefully b e used by the Campus . Life Board for planning self-governance, Pocock said. As for his view of the future, he said, "1 would hope that we could institute something similar to what Durfee has in other dorms across campus."

VP job—evolving process'

DeYoung explains duties

by Peter Maaserr

"It 's kind of like a fraternity ought to be," said sophomore Doyg Irons, but he wasn't discuss-ing Alpha Phi Omega, Omicron Kappa Epsilon or Phi Tau Nu. The subject was Durfee Hall, whose personal atmosphere, system of constitutional government and representative council make it unique among Hope's dormitories.

ACCORDING TO all sources, the moving spirit behind this "utopia" is Gary Demarest, Direc-tor of the Counseling Center and head resident of Durfee. "He's

' done a fantastic job of running the dorm," said Tom Westervelt, Durfee Hall Manager. Demarest kno^s all of the Durfee residents personally, helping to unify them and create a feeling of respect and friendliness.

The resident advisors are in-tended to further this atmo-sphere: "We're more meant to build relationships than to be an authoritative symbol," said David Smazik, Durfee RA.

DEMAREST HAS instituted in

Durfee more RA's than are re-quired, so four are paid only half of regular salary. Yet they work harder than most RA's, having to consume an ever-growing sheaf of papers on personality, dorm gov-ernment and college community as well as working with the men on their wing.

"For freshmen, Durfee is ideal," said Smazik. For the first few weeks of school there were regular meetings for getting ac-quainted, easing into college life and finding friends.

INFLUENCED, no doubt, by the ideals of Jim Beran, former Durfee resident, Dick Thayer and Tom McConnon suggested at a September dorm meeting that a constitution be drawn up. A com-mittee of volunteers was formed, and the result is one page of eight simple articles.

The first four outline the na-ture and duties of the dorm com-mittee, a body of seven elected representatives (one from each wing) with Demarest as advisor. "It 's better than going to dorm meetings all the time," said

by Sue Poppink

Following his appointment last year to Vice-President for Student Affairs, Robert DeYoung sees his changing responsibilities from dean of students as an "evolu-tionary process," stating that it has evolved from the college's "new needs and new president."

SINCE COMING here nine years ago DeYoung's "responsi-bilities have grown. 1 originally came here as Dean of Students," he stated. DeYoung continued, "At that time the student person-nel function was fragmented. Admissions was under the aca-demic dean, counselling was under the psychology department and health services were under the treasurer. There was no placement office and student activities were

directed by the student senate." Gradually DeYoung put these

different aspects of college admin-istration under one jurisdiction and coordinated them, at which time he became dean of students. DeYoung referred to this position as "the umbrella of student per-sonnel."

LAST YEAR when President Gordon VanWylen "took steps toward a more effective struc-ture throughout the administra-tion, I moved from dean of stu-dents to vice president," DeYoung stated.

Presently, from a centralized location, DeYoung oversees stu-dent activities, counselling, reli-gious life, housing, health services, admissions, food services and the student center.

WHEN ASKED to clarify his role as overseer and coordinator, DeYoung compared his job to that of an anchor editor. De-Young explained the editor has to coordinate the job of news editor with that of advertising manager and numerous other staff mem-bers. The editor also has to be aware of the goals and purposes of the paper in order to make sure each of his staff understands them and works toward achieving them, he observed.

DeYoung spends "a lot of time" with his staff, to keep all the departments aiming at com-

mon purposes. According to De-Young each department has three things toward which it works.

FIRST, the departments try to understand exactly what they want and what they are working toward.

Second, the different depart-ments try to understand what they have in common and what they are working toward as their goals fit into the orientation of the college.

THIRD, the departments have the task of getting feedback from the administration and from each individual member of the depart-ments.

DeYoung said that it is impor-tant to have "meaningful com-munication" because "you can't accomplish your purposes without meaningful attention to all the people you work with."

IN DEYOUNG'S words, the structure hangs together because of "individuals, groups and organi-zations."

As a dean, DeYoung said he spent about 80 percent of his time with students. .Now he reports that only about 30 percent of his time is with students. DeYoung stated that he is now doing the same type of counselling that he did with students with members of his staff. He called this type of management, "management by objectives."

The rights of children Hope College anchor November 15, 1974

National movements to secure the rights of minorities and oppressed peoples are noble and necessary. But as various groups attract more headlines and more support, there is one • group that is continually passed by-children.

s u a e t

.An example of discrimination against children in our own area was featured recently on WZZM-TV. That station re-ported on various Grand Rapids business-men and shopowners who will not allow minors into their stores, especially in groups of three or more.

A more serious example, however, is in West Virginia, where many parents are protesting the presence of "anti-Christian and anti-American" books in the public school system.

The protest has involved parents keep-ing students home from school, the estab-lishment of private "Christian" schools that expect an enrollment of 10,000 by next year and assorted incidents of vio-lence.-

Throughout the controversy parents have been quoted as saying they want a say in what books their children read. They've kept their promises to keep their children away from school. They've continually emphasized their rights as parents to deter-

mine the kind of education their children will receive.

Has anyone thought to ask the students what kind of books and schools they want? No, neither were black slaves asked whether or not they wanted to work on plantations.

By demanding the right to keep text-, books out of schools, parents are admitting their diffidence in their ability to rear children. Surely if the children have been hearing about morality at home as much as we have in the nevyspapers and on tele-vision, they will be able to weigh the worth of a particular book on their own. Of course, if the children of West Virginia are growing up sans morals, it only makes sense to blame public education.

* Most people will agree that the parents involved have gone a little overboard-protesting "Jack and the Beanstalk" seems a bit extreme. But what most people deba'te is the value of the books, rather then the rights of the children to make i!p their own minds.

Most of us will be parents soon, proba-bly sooner than any of us realize. Hope-fully, the West Virginia controversy will serve as an example to us, reminding us when the time comes that children have individual minds and individual desires. Hopefully, we'll grant our children the rights that children in West Virginia are being denied-the right to self-determina-tion.

The oppression of children is as real as the oppression of any racial or ethnic minority, and as absurd.

The loser ©1974, The Los Angeles Times Syndicate

A 'Christian community? It would seem as I read some articles

and letters to the editor in our newspaper that many consider this campus to be a "Christian community." It does not appear to me to be anything of the kind and if one would look at the biblical context of the term, there would be little doubt that this community is not "Christian."

deaur ®dlS4®ir The' community of believers in Acts

2:42-47 was something very different from this Hope community. It is recorded by Luke that "they devoted themselves to the apostle's teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

"Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miracles were done by the apostles. All the believers were together in the temple courts.

"They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their numbers daily those who were being saved." As one observes Hope little resem-blance can be found.

There is good reason for this, however. This is a liberal arts school supported by a

man made institution, the Reformed Church of America. It's not the simple church of the New Testament. There are many groups on campus under various names each with a different view of Jesus or on methods of approaching Him and His teachings; and of course there are members of the Hope community that are not "Christian." -

So why do people refer to Hope as being "Christian" (of the annointed of God)? Perhaps it is due to our concept of being a Christian and the result of that existence in today's world.

To believe in Jesus, the Messiah, to put your faith in what he has done and will do for salvation (Romans 5:1-2) has been put into so many contexts and changed by man's philosophies and traditions (Colos-sians 2:8) that the idea of early Chris-tianity as a living, moving, loving existence has become a non-entity.

I believe that there is a need for Hope to have a "Christian Community", not a crusade or an edifice of worship but an active force which relates to every part of the believer's life and likewise to those outside the community of faith. Perhaps it's time for a new reformation of our thought on the terms "Christian" and "church" which have become truly cliche.

Seise case clarified On November 12 at 9:45 a.m., a meet-

ing was held in the Art Department office concerning the article entitled Student Leaves Hope Following Grade Dispute, and the anchor editorial, A Matter of Integrity, in volume 87-9, Hope College anchor, November 8, 1974. In attendance were Professors James Seeser, Robert Vickers, Delbert Michel and John Wilson, anchor editor Robert Eckert and editorial assis-tant, Lynn Grunewald.

It was pointed out by Mr. Eckert that in composing these articles quotations were excerpted from a letter received from Mr. Seise. The following statements as they appeared in these articles do not reveal the entire truth:

Paragraph 3 — "After appealing to the administration, Seise said he was advised to take the matter up with Vickers and Art Department Chairman Delbert Michels, who told him that allowing him to retake

WASHINGTON-In every political con-test there is a winner and a loser. You hear a lot from the winner but nothing from the loser. What happens to a defeated candi-date? How does he feel?

"GOV. HABADASHER," I said. "Oh, you still remember me?" Haba-

dasher smiled. "You only lost the election Tuesday,

Governor." "PEOPLE forget fast in this state, son." ^It must be tough to have been a

governor and then be turned out by the people. What was the first thought that came to your mind when they told you that you had lost the election?"

"I THOUGHT about all the good things I had hoped to accomplish for this s ta te-the unfinished business that I had started; the dreams that were shattered by an electorate that didn't understand what I was trying to do."

"That's very nice. Governor. But what were you really thinking?"

"WELL, if you want me to level with you, the first thought that came to mind was 'Damn, there goes my helicopter.' You know, I really got to love that helicopter. It would land right out there on the front lawn and zoom! I was above all the traffic and the stinking congestion and lousy air down there and I could get to the football game in 15 minutes. There's no feeling like it."

"No one could fault you for thinking that. Do you blame anyone for losing the election?"

"I BLAME myself, only myself. Of course, I had lousy TV commercials. I mean they really stank. But every time I complained, they told me I didn't know anything about show business. And those infantile newspaper ads didn't help me any, nor did my campaign staff who seemed to be drunk every time I needed them.

"And I'll tell you this—I got creamed because some idiot was running for senator on the same ticket as I was and his opponent stole all my votes. Except for that, I would say it was my fault."

"THAT'S VERY generous of you, Gov-ernor. Your wife said after your defeat that she was happy you were getting out of politics." ,

"She was lying. She enjoyed being the governor's wife more than I enjoyed being governor. Boy, did she love all those servants and that chauffeured limousine and everyone playing up to her because she lived in the Mansion. She may have told the press she was happy I was getting out of politics, but she hasn't talked to me since I lost the election."

"GOVERNOR, what does the future hold for somebody like you? Where does one go after being the head of a state?"

"I'd like to get into the Cabinet." "President Ford's Cabinet?" "WHY NOT? He blew the election for

me with his pardon. The least he could do is give me a Cabinet post."

"But if he gave everyone who lost the election a high post in his Administration, the President would have to hold his Cabinet meetings in RFK Stadium."

"THAT'S WHAT my wife said." "Governor, by American standards,

you're.a loser. You have tasted the bitter fruit of defeat. Having lived through it, would you advise young people to run for public office?"

"I CERTAINLY would." "Why?" "Because if you win, you have a chance

of getting your own helicpter. There's nothing like it, son. You're flying way up there in the clouds and when you look down, all you see are suckers jammed bumper to bumper trying to get home from the football game."

Van Raalte—scene of long-forgotten museum by Stew Galloway

An elk head, Oriental artifacts, a 40 foot python, shells from many waters of the world- i t is all part of a long forgotten museum on the fourth floor of Van Raalte. In addition, a suit«of 19th century Samurai armor and a few boxes of rare books have been saved from the dust and pigeon excrement and are now in the Heritage Room of the Van Zoeren Library.

'Tart of the plans of Van Raalte, built in 1902, was a museum on the fourth floor to be used mainly for the objects brought back by missionaries," stated Dr. Paul Fried, professor of history. The idea was pursued by a Professor Shualke and in 1903 it was called "The Museum." When World War I broke out. Professor Shaulke left and so did any enthu-siasm for "The Museum."

Some interest was rejuvenated in 1962 and there were attempts at restoration. But no one seemed to organize an ongoing system to perpetuate the museum. Recently, Larry Penrose, assistant professor of history, suggested that the Faculty Dames, an organization of wives of male faculty members, improve the situation, but they declined the huge job.

Objects were haphazardly given and brought to Hope and somet)f them were significant pieces of art and history. Old time cards were eventually stacked in what is now an attic next to portraits and busts of famous persons and a 12 foot long dugout canoe.

Vandalism, burglary and rot-ting followed and one professor believes that some 'scholars' felt the need to "rescue" valuable items from this apparent disregard for history.

Reynolds reads sci fi paper at convention

Dr. William Reynolds, assistant professor of English, read a paper "Science Fiction Anthologies and Their Applicability to Teaching" at the convention of the Midwest Modern Language Association in St. Louis, Mo., recently. Reynolds was elected chairman of the Sci-ence Fiction Forum for the 1975 meeting to be held in Chicago. -

Letters cont.

The athletic banners hanging in the Kletz, the busts (one is George Washington) in the Archives Room, the framed pictures of Hope graduates on -the second floor of the DeWitt Cultural Center are all included in the remnants of art and history on the campus. ,

Barry Werkman, business man-ager and director of campus plan-ning seems to be the only person with responsibility for the pieces in the attic. He has seen to it that the biology and geology depart-ments have gone up to the attic and retrieved anything they see of value. Much of the museum in the ground floor of the Peale Science Center is made up of the stuffed animals which were on the fourth floor.

"Alumni, friends and graduates have contributed also but many have seen how Hope has treated their donations and have given their private papers and furniture to other places. A good example is the desk of former president Al-bertus Van Raalte which was do-nated to Calvin College," stated Dr. Elton Bruins, professor of religion.

He stated that there is no one person with responsibility over all of the collected and donated items and that they are carelessly taken and given away or stored in forgotten closets.

An archivist was hired in the late 1950s and when she retired in 1968 the Archives was eliminated from the budget. Bruins and Fried kept a strain of it going on their own for the next two years until an official charter of organization was approved which put it back in the budget and another archivist, Andy Vanderzee, was hired on a part-time basis.

The Archives Council, which includes Fried, Leroy Lebbin, director of libraries, Tom Renner, director of college relations. Registrar Jon Huisken and George Ralph, dean for humanities and arts, meets monthly.

The job of the council includes "supervising the archivist, making revisions in their operations and talking policy about what we should collect and look for," Bruins reported. He calls the work of the archivist a "records man-agement" job and added that he "now evaluates current material as to how valuable it is. He recently finished cataloging and putting in

Swier rebuts essay continued from page 4

In response to the Alexanian article concerning world religions, 1 agree that they proposed "a somewhat different view of the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth." They quoted Jesus as saying, "Follow me and you shall lose me. Follow yourselves and you shall find both me and your-selves."

I don't know where that quote came from but it's a new one on me. I assume that the writers were talking about, the teaching of Jesus from Matthew 19 which states in my Bible (New American Standard Version) in verse 39, "He who has found his life shall lose it, and he who has lost his life for my sake shall find it."

This differs radically from the quote of the Alexanians and the thought behind each quote states the difference between the Alex-anians' Pelagian view of man and the Christian view stated in the Bible.

The Bible teaches that man can do nothing apart from God (John 15:5). Any efforts to save himself are in vain. Even "self-observa-tion" can't help him to become the new creature talked about in II Corinthians 5:17.

The only way one can become a new creature is by the grace of God displayed by the sending of his Son, Jesus Christ, to set us free, accepted by men through faith.

order all of the issues of the anchor."

Bruins stated that the attic of Van Raalte is only part of the problem and tl>at the council has been busy with the "emergency" work of establishing a central register system of the material they receive now and "building up donor confidence."

All deans' office material, de-

partmental minutes, anchors, Milestones, Hope pamphlets and certain files are delivered auto-matically to the Archives.

"An institution" should know its own roots," Bruins commented, and added that "Ird like a con-tinuous system of collection and an inventory of all of our fine arts and art objects." He believes that all of this would honor Hope's

graduates and alumni and it would be a valuable tool, both for teach-ing and research.

The University of Michigan has an archives program with a profes-sor supervising students who do the basic work. "Calvin also has a good program and even asked President VanWylen for his per-sonal papers," Bruins said.

The elections by Dave DeKok

Election day, 1974, is history now but despite the fears of President Ford, John P. Yeutter and other high-ranking Republicans, we don't have the legislative dictatorship they predicted in ominous tones before November 5. You can all breathe easier, members of the G.O.P.

AT LEAST until you start ruminating about the future of your party, which lost 42 seats in the House of Representatives and five in the Senate. The former number includes the seat held by Rep. Donald Brotzman (R-Colo), which senior Hope political science majors may remember as the man Assistant Professor of Political Science Jack Holmes went to work for in early 1973.

Holmes will return to Hope second semester (he was coming back anyway-and let me be the first to welcome him, even though he was'a rabid Republi-can partisan during the 1972 election campaign-some folks never learn-but it's humorous now) to resume his career as a political science instructor.

ONE PERSON who won't be coming back to Hope, as a U.S. Senator anyway, is Sen. Peter Dominick, also a Republican from Colorado. You may remember that Dominick spoke at Hope at a campaign symposium during the 1972 campaign (funny how that campaign keeps popping up in this column, isn't it? Revenge, revenge) along with Democratic Rep. Les Aspin.

Dominick was defeated by Gary Hart, Sen. George McGovern's campaign manager in the 1972 campaign. McGovern also won re-election in South Dakota, defeating the strong challenge of Leo Thomess, a former Vietnam P.O.W.

THIS IS electoral justice in its purest form. It was a classic battle-McGovern, the dove on the war who also spoke out against the corruption of the Nixon administration during the campaign, pitted against Thomess, one of the POW's whom Nixon declared en masse to be heroes upon their home-coming.

But it was classic only in who they were and what they represented; as McGovern stated, Viet-nam was a past issue, the real issue was the economy. South Dakota voters wanted McGovern's agricultural expertise back in Congress. Ideology

doesn't always matter to people when it comes to putting food on the table and money in the pocket during hard times.

OHIO VOTERS elected John Glenn to the Senate. Glenn is the man who circled the earth three times in Friendship 7 back in 1962, when most of us were in the third or fourth grade. Glenn's Mr. Clean image and personal integrity won out over Cleveland Mayor Ralph Perk, who at one campaign appearance accidently set his hair on fire with a blowtorch.

Five Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee who opposed Nixon's impeachment until the June 23 tape was released were defeated, including the outspoken Charles Sandman from New Jersey who repeatedly demanded "show me the evidence" during the televised debate on im-peachment.

NIXON SHOWED him, and he voted for im-peachment in the re-vote, but that didn't help him any. One Democrat on the committee, Wayne Owens of Utah, was defeated in his bid for the Senate.

Ella Grasso became the first woman in the country's history to win the governorship of a state without her husband preceding her in the office. Women in general fared well in the election.

THE DEMOCRATS have slightly more than the two-thirds control necessary to override Presidential vetoes in the House but not in the Senate. Even if they did, it wouldn't likely bring on a legislative dictatorship since Democrats rarely can be counted on to vote as a unit when they hold a commanding majority. Factionalism always results.

The new Congress is more to the left than its predecessor and very likely will assert itself in such areas as foreign aid that previous Congresses left up to the Executive. The national health care bill that has been languishing in committee for a couple of years has an improved chance of passage.

What they will do on the economy is the big question. The country is in a recession now, if you hadn't noticed, and voter reaction against the Democrats could be high in 1976 if things are as bad then as they are now. /

Hope will survive inflation, Anderson says by )ohn Scholten r

Some economists state that we are'headed for a severe recession in the United States, somewhat similar to the Great Depression of the 'SOs,' Hope survived that de-pression, and so far is enduring stagflation, but both involved hard work and sound planning.

PRESIDENT Emeritus, Ed-ward Dimnent, was one of the main reasons that Hope lasted through the depression. Dimnent was instrumental in getting the college back on its feet, according to James Henderson, assistant pro-fessor of economics and business administration.

During the Great Depression, according to Henderson, Dimnent invested the college's money in the stock market and was very successful in gaining the financial resources that were so hard to come by in those difficult years.

DIMNENT WAS president of Hope from 1918 to 1931. He had an uncanny knowledge of which way the stock market would go, Henderson stated in citing facts provided by Dr. Yntema, chair-man of the economics department from 1945-1967.. For example, Dimnent had some of the college's money invested in the stock mar-ket and was making a nice profit; to everyone's surprise, he sudden-ly sold all of the stock. This happened just prior to the depres-sion.

After the onset of the depres-sion, however, people were thank-ful to have a man like Dimnent involved in their financial affairs. A few years into the Depression, after Dr. Wynand Wichers was named President, Dimnent was

WILLIAM ANDERSON

still actively involved in the col-lege teaching economics. c

DIMNENT maintained a good deal of influence when it came to Hope's finances. Hope was then experiencing serious financial dif-ficulties due to the depreciation of the endowment fund and the fact that people were giving a great deal less than they had prior to the depression.

Dimnent began to reinvest in the stock market. As Henderson stated, "If Dimnent would buy a stock, it would always go up. If Dimnent would sell a stock, in-evitably, it would go down." Dimnent began to once again build up Hope's resources.

LARGELY DUE to the efforts of Dimnent, Hope was able to rebuild the endowment fund dur-ing the depression, an unusual occurrence for colleges during the depression. In addition to that, Hope was able to start planning for a Science Hall and to begin funding that building (now Called

Lubbers Hall, erected in 1941). Unfortunately, Edward Dim-

nent is no longer with Hope, but so far the school has weathered the economic storm without him. him.

WILLIAM Anderson, vice pres-ident for business and financial affairs, stated, "Yes, we are look-ing for different ways to create inflation hedges. We've been try-ing to hold down expenses under this inflation rate."

As an example of that infla-tion, this year Hope paid $162,000 for its light and power bill. Recently the Board of Public Works in Holland slapped the city with an. 18 percent rate increase. Next year, Anderson estimates the cost for light and power will run somewhere in the neighborhood of $200,000.

SOME THINGS cannot be argued with. With increases like this one, the only thing Hope can do is try to cut back on consump-tion. Cui^ently, to try1 to cut down on the power bill, only every seventh light is being used in Peale Science Center.

With the cost of living rising so drastically, Hope has to cope with the problem of paying its faculty reasonable salaries. "This year we have six fewer faculty members," stated Mr. Anderson. "We don't want to lose good people, so our salaries have to remain competi-tive, yet not contribute to infla-tion. That is an extremely hard thing to do."

THE TUITION increases for the past few years have been less than the rate of inflation. Ander-son stated, "We're trying to hold the cost at Hope below the infla-tion rate, recognizing the fact that

we have to increase our cost." One of the biggest increases as

a result of this inflation has been the rising cost of food. "Perhaps the biggest increase of all has been the food bill," remarked Ander-son. "Saga has always been real-istic, but we may have to have an increase in our board bill."

UNDER THE direction of Anderson, Hope is also looking futuristically at its financial prob-lems. A new telephone system owned and operated by the col-lege is being considered, instead of renting from Michigan Bell. This would protect the college from future rate increases.

Henderson estimated that this

year more private colleges will collapse than ever before in one year. Many of these colleges are now failing and beginning to be swept under by financial prob-lems. This is not the case, how-ever, at Hope. "We are trying to be frugal-we're not involved in any deficit spending like some colleges," noted Anderson.

Anderson added, "Hope will survive-we have a very good, sound financial base and we're not too deeply in debt. We have no deficits and we're doing enough planning in advance to foresee our problems. Coupled with this is the intelligent use of our resources. Hope College will survive.,,

Herrick reports 10,000 missing books

From 1962 to 1972, 10,000 books were missing from the Her-rick Public Library. Recently Roger Walcott, director of the Herrick Public Library talked to President Gordon VanWylen about the possibility of withhold-ing college credit from students who have not returned books.

"Hesitant to blame Hope stu-dents," Walcott said the general public, including some Hope stu-dents, is responsible for the miss-ing books. But forcing Hope stu-dents to return books will de-

* crease the number of lost books. VanWylen, though "wanting to

encourage students to return books," said the coUege does not have the right to withhold credit. The college can't try to control a

student's relations external to the college. Forcing a student to re-turn a library book would be like forcing him to pay a bill to a local merchant, he said. Walcott's sug-gestion was turned down. No other plans were discussed.

Presently Hope students living in Holland, like other city resi-dents, can use the library without registering or paying a fee. No change in policy is planned.

Dutch establish best record in fifteen years Hope College Flying Dutch-

ftien, under relaxed conditions, invaded Greencastle, Indiana, to capture their eighth win of the season against one loss by a score of 10-0. The victory was sweet for a number of reasons.

THE" DEPAUW Tigers had ear-lier beaten Olivet by eight points and had a six and two record going into the game. Secondly, it gave the Dutch their best season record in fifteen years. It also kept alive a seven game winning streak on the road and left the Dutchmen undefeated against non-league foes.

After the opening kickoff and an exchange of punts, the offense took the ball 63 yards in eight plays to score. The drive was culminated by a 15 yard jaunt by sophomore tailback Kurt Bennett who ended the day with 70 yards in 15 carries. This gave Bennett a season total of 1,042 yards mak-ing him the fourth Hope tailback in as many years to go over the thousand yard mark. , /

HOPE CLOSED out the scor-ing on a 38 yard field goal by "electrician1' Jim Miller. Quarter-back Robert Carlson was seven for 11 in the passing department for 96 yards and no interceptions.

The Dutch failed on two other field §oal tries including a spec-tacular run by the electrician who was shocked into reality when his body was abused by the DePauw defense and the play resulted in a 14 yard loss. A dejected Miller limped off the field. His other field goal attempt landed in the Dads* section of the large Dads' Day crowd.

THE GAME was highlighted by Hope's outstanding defense. De-fensive coordinator Russ DeVette has called this group the best defense he has coached. DeVette must be congratulated as his de-fense has led the league for the last fpur years and this season ended up ranked fourth in the nation in NCAA college division III.

The fine defensive line of

Stewart, VanTuinen, Yeiter, Ranthum and Less led a charge that sacked the Tigers' quarter-back nine times while never allow-ing them to penetrate Hope's 20 yard line. Linebacker Louis Ten-Have blocked a field goal attempt while middle guard Dale Yeiter blocked a punt. These two plays along with fumble recoveries by comerback Tom Barkes and end Jeff Stewart kept DePauw bottled up all day.

DEPAUW'S desperation drive in the closing minutes was thwarted by an interception by freshman safety Bill Blacquiere which he returned 20 yards.

Ray Smith's Dutchmen did a fine job in regaining their winning form. Smith has to be pleased with this total team effort which will make the winter months pass faster.

IN REGARD to next year, Hope's fortunes should continue. The Dutch lose Stewart and O'Brien on defense, but this should not dent DeVette's dooms-

day defense. returning and many able veterans On offense, the Dutch will lose eager to fill those spots. Look for

Carlson, Martin, Cornell, the Dutch to continue their win-Constant, Meyer and Brooks. This ning ways with an even better still leaves JJmith with six starters season next year.

Cross country team takes MIAA title

IMotions

Emotions and sports go together like salt and pepper. It is this integral part that makes defeat so painful and victory so sweet. Emotions are what make grown men cry after an upset loss and women explode when their son is hurt.

THEY ARE ABLE to take a person to heights they have never and may never again reach. Exam-ples of this are innumerable and are continually present, such as last Saturday's upset of Ohio State by Michigan State. However, such emotions may lead us to do things which are to be later regretted. This too was apparent as Coach Woody Hayes of O.S.U. struck an M.S.U. spectator.

But we need not look any farther than ourselves to see such displays. It was brought to our attention that our emotions may have taken an upper hand, even in our Intramural program, as evidenced by the disgust of some people on campus.

HOWEVER, emotions are a universal fact which are not confined just to those competing on an organized interscholastic and professional sport level. It would seem that the tension of competition brings out these feelings at all levels. To me, it is hard to conceive of a competition in which they aren't aroused, and that one team, or person, didn't try to win.

The purpose of competition by its very nature is for one team to prove, it is better. If we place too high a value on winning, then the thing to do is to ban it. There is no way one will change this by a

by Jon Soderstrom

mere implementation of rules; they have nothing to do with the participants themselves; and though rules* can control the flow of a game, they could never exert a force over one's emotions.

ONLY ONE solution presents itself: the discon-tinuation of the source of excitation. Yet. this is a distasteful suggestion;and, perhaps, even impractical, for as long as man has existed he has sought to compete in sporting events. There is no evidence to suggest that anything has changed this in any way.

I would like to see a more sportsmanlike atmo-sphere prevail, but I suggest that rules are not the answer. In fact, I can only see the one solution previously advanced. But 1 would never want, or expect, this to become a reality. It is questionable whether these contests have the adverse social consequences that have been proposed, or whether these were already present and only aggravated in some minor sense?

CERTAINLY the behaviour observed is not perfected gentlemanly conduct, but then football is not that type of sport. Also, the overall conduct throughout the season, seemed to be relatively pleasant, though a few games may have gotten out of hand. However, these were exceptions.

Emotions play an important role which can never be separated from sports. The only reasonable suggestion is that the participants be asked to exercise self-control. Only by this manner will the problem of conduct be overcome.

Last week Hope's cross coun-try team ended its season by competing in the NCAA Division III annual meet on Saturday, but only after winning the MIAA league title on Wednesday.

It was the second league cham-pionship in a row for the Dutch-men with junior Stuart Scholl setting the pace. Scholl placed first while Phil Ceely and Glen Powers followed in 2nd and 4th places respectively. Freshman Lou Hoekstra also made a fine showing when he placed 6th. Kalamazoo was Hope's closest contender, but ended the day with some 61 points difference.

In the NCAA meet Hope placed 22nd. Again Scholl had a fine day when he placed 41st out of a total of 304 runners, as did Hoekstra who came in second for the Dutch in 134th place.

Hope's all-league candidates for the 1974 season include: Phil Ceely, Glen Powers and this year's most valuable runner in the MIAA, Stuart Scholl, who will be anticipating another fine season next year.

In their four years at Hope, Ceely and Powers have compiled an impressive winning record.
