'VICTORY' HOMECOMING BEGINS 12 Elected To College Who's Who

The biographies of twelve out-standing nope seniors w.li be in-cluded in the annual Who's Vvho Among Mudents in American Col-leges and Universities publication ii was announced this week by ii . Pettus Randall, editor. Those se-lected for the honor are Clinton Harrison, Milton Verburg, Editn Klaaren, Harvey Koop, Barbara Dee Folensbee, Alfred Borgman, Iwaijorie Brouwer, Donald De Fouw, Daniel Fylstra, Winifred M. kameau, Seymour K. Padnos, anu Jean Ruiter.

Nominations for selection were made by the college registrar . Professor Thomas E. Welmers in consultation with other memben. of the administration on the basis of character, scholarship, leader-ship in extra-curricu.ar activities, and potentiality for fu ture useful-ness to business and society.

The purpose for the national publication is to serve as an out-standing honor in which deserving students, a f te r displaying merit in college and accomplishing their goals, may be given recognition without having to pay some fee and to establish a reference volume of authoritive information on the great body of America's leading college students.

One of the services of Who's Who is a free placement bureau which aims to help students bridge the span between college and the world of business. The publication office maintains a detailed file of stu-dents' records to which all business concerns in the United States and Canada may refer . In addition, students selected for the publica-tion may indicate their preference for the firms with which they would like to be affiliated and the placement bureau sends his com-plete record there. The service is already planning to help selected students who enter the armed forces re-adjust themselves to civilian life a f t e r the war.

Naughty Freshmen Receive Penalties From Council

Freshmen ego was crushed Tues-day night when three frosh were tried for misdemeanors before the Student Council in its regular busi-ness session following the "Y' meeting. Ken Steketee, "Bobbie" Roosen and 'Bud" White were held on charges of not wearing the "green," dating upperclassmen, and jay-walking a f t e r 10 P. M.

Deeply chagrined, following hu-miliating questioning and convinc-ing paddling, the erring frosh readily agreed to remain law-abid-ing Hopeites for the duration of the "green" period. After render-ing a verdict of "guilty," the coun-cil, in session, issued an obiter dictum warning to all forty-sixes who feel themselves too important to be classed with the other frosh who wear the "green" and stay home a f t e r 10 P. M. "Several other freshmen will soon be summoned before the council for trial," stated Student Council Prexy Clint Harri-son in his general warning to the frosh. Harrison announced that these freshmen will be sentenced to "penalties" at the annual "pot" burning ceremony to be held imme-diately a f te r the Nykerk contest, November 23, on the College ath-letic field.

Following the freshmen trials, final plans for Homecoming were reported by Co-chairmen Mildred Timmer and Al Weenink. The In-terclass chairman gave detailed in-formation on the Frosh-Soph games and Pull, which were postponed last week because of weather, and reported on ear ly plans for the Nykerk Cup contest, annual Frosh-Soph girls ' event. Verne Boersma reported tha t t he Student Council petitions for opening the library a t night were filled, and stated tha t sttMlents will probably be using the night library service within a week or two.

Anchor Masthead to Feature Voice for Victory Eagle

The masthead of the ANCHOR

will soon feature a new emblem,

that of an eagle perched upon a

pen and below it the words, T h i s

Paper Is a Voice for Victory."

The emblem, soon to be used

by a majori ty of papers in the

Associated Collegiate Press, is

symbolical of the paper's aim to

be a Voice for Victory by publiciz-

ing bond and stamp sales, salvage

jampaigns, and other drives, and

cooperating with the government in any way possible to aid the war program.

The eagle is permitted to appear in any college newspaper of the ACP group which signs a pledge of cooperation in the Voice for Victory movement. The ANCHOR signed this pledge earlier in the week. It reads, "Without sacri-ficing editorial independence or their r ight to make independent judgments, editors and staff mem-bers of this newspaper agree to unite all college newspapers of the nation to support, wholeheartedly and by every means at their com-mand, the government of the United States in the war effort, to the end that the college press of the nation may be a united Voice for Victory."

The campus is literally over-run

with old grads. It happens every

year. Each year you think there

can't possibly be as many of them

as there were the last year, and

each year there 's more. You can't

win. The only consolation is tha t

every year they 're different.

For instance, this year there's

J e t t s Rylaarsdam to inspire our

stu prez to grea te r heights of ora-

tory at the banquet. There's dimin-

utive Ditty Bonga to make Vandy's

day complete, and Jim White, in

uniform, to squire Phyl Pelgrim.

Blase will be h e r e (surprised,

aren' t you?) and so will Cornie

. ett inga. This will not affect the

composure of either Barb or Billie.

Rose is radiant on Alkie Muilen-

berg's arm, and Norma walks with

Tappan.

Singly and in pairs they come

Homecoming Promises Sweet Music,

Keen Competition, and Solid Food Some people don't like college. Some people don't like to sing. Some girls don't like boys, Some boys don't l i k e beautiful

girls.

SOME P E O P L E DON'T LIKE ANYTHING!

But to those of you who are nor-mal and really appreciate an on-the-beam good time, here's the low-down of tha t high-class affair — Homecoming.

The excitement s tar ts with a bang-up pep rally tonight on the practice field. Climb aboard with Admiral George Lumsden. Cheers led by Al Rypstra and his new-crew of cuties, Viv Moncton, Mimi Moncada, Vonnie Yntema and F ran Van Duzer . . . Music by a group of solid senders styled the Bob Snow way . . . A word from the wise — "Doc" Wichers and Coach "Stage-Door-Canteen" Hinga . . . Meet the team and a few words from Captain Jlarvey Koop . . . Any noise you can make will be rewarded. In fact , get out there, gather around the bonfire, and yell like — you really meant it.

That torrid lady, our own Queen Edith, will preside at ye Riverside Stadium when Hinga's Henchmen meet the Albion All-Stars on the field of mortal c o m b a t It'll be a tooth fo r a tooth and an eye fo r

the band — new, super, and reor-ganized under Mr. Heeter, of Hol-land High fame. Watch them s t ru t their stuff at the half f o r the deah old Alma Mater.

Alumni, of course, will be all over the place. Invites have been sent to those in the nearby terri-tory and New Brunswick. Comes Saturday night, comes the ban-quet. In fact , do come. No pink chewing gum wrappers to send in, no man-hole covers to save — just come!

I t 's V for Victory and V for Voorhees and Van Vleck. The op-portunity of a life time since tha t contingency of the f a i r e r sex has been graced by a dorm discount Oh for a s tudent guide, at least one for each f ra te rn i ty .

A good programmie has been hashed out, and of course tha t chow t rea t served up by Trinity Ladies' Aid. Once again we'll be subjects of Queen Eek and King E t s . . . Right in the well known groove will be Bob Scheerhorn and the band with vocals by Bud (Eber-ly) White . . . Victory decorations and a salute to the branches of the armed forces.

I t just won' t pay to stay away, but definitely. So come on out, chilluns and help us Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition.

Captain Harvey Koop

Weather Allowing, Delayed Pull Wil l Be This Afternoon

The annual frosh-soph pull that

was scheduled for Friday, October

15, will be held today at 4 o'clock.

The frosh with Bob Van Zyl as

captain will take their traditional

place on the south side of Black

River and the sophs with Con Vander Woude acting as captain will pull from the north side. The flooding of the frosh holes was the reason for the postponement.

Both teams have been practicing fai thfully but the postponement will be in favor of the sophs who will have a few extra days to work under Coach Dan Fylstra. Never-theless, the boys of Rog Koeppe and AI De Voogd may be counted on to put up a good scrap. The victorious team will not be known until one team is dragged through the muddy river.

The rules as prescribed by tra-dition require that the teams pull in their holes for fifteen minutes. Then, following a one-minute rest period, the teams come to their feet and tug until one team is pulled through the river and the first man touches the opposite bank.

Also following a postponement, the frosh-soph games were held yesterday. Keen spirit was exhibit-ed by the boys and girls in both classes. Ets Kleinjans and J i m burger acted as chairmen for the boys' games while Millie Timmer and Jean Ruiter directed the con-tests of the girls. While the games were of real interest to everyone, it is the annual pull that really determines the superiority of the Freshmen or Sophomore class.

Competition for Nykerk Cup Set for November 23

It was in 1934 that the frosh class first pulled the sophs through the muddy waters of the Black River. As class rivalry was at its height, the female members of the poor unfor tunate class strongly felt the humiliation of defeat . The incited Amazons immediately chal-lenged the inexperienced frosh girls to a pull to show the male sophs that this is a woman's world.

Before the pull got under way, I>r. Nykerk, late Professor of Eng-lish, intervened and suggested a program more adaptable to the weaker sex. Consequently, a liter-ary and musical contest was held — each class presenting an oratori-cal number, a musical selection and a one-act play. A cup was accord-ingly presented to the class re-ceiving the grea te r number of points for its performances.

The contest, which has since be-come a traditional annual affair, will be held this year on Novem-ber 23rd a t the Li t Club. Soph cap-tain is Mary Elizabeth Aldrich, who will be a s s i s t e d by Edith Klaaren as coach. The f reshman class will be captained by Elaine Mensinger, and will be coached by Marge Emory.

with Prep-Meeting around Five Week-End to Be Climaxed By Game Victory Banquet Is In Carnegie Gym Dr. Frederick Yonkman to Be Speaker

The twelfth annual Homecoming events will s tar t off officially tonight at eight P. M. on the college athletic field. A giant pep meet-.ng, to take the place of the patriotically eliminated float parade, will be staged under the direction of Master of Ceremonies, George Lumsden.

In the light of a mammoth bonfire, cheers and songs will be led by Al Rypstra and his new cheer leading crew; and music supplied by a mock German band under the leadership of Bob Snow. Dr. Wichers

and Coach Hinga will speak, mem-

bers of the team will be intro-

duced, and a few remarks heard ^

from Captain Harv Koop.

Saturday morning will be re-

served for society breakfasts and

luncheons. S a t u r d a y afternoon

Queen Edith Klaaren and her court

will be ceremoniously escorted to

the football field. At the game.

Homecoming favors may be pur-

chased from any of the Alcor girls. Open House will be held at all the f ra tern i ty houses a f t e r the game.

Banquet at Six-thirty

Climaxing the week-end's activi-ties will be the banquet held in Carnegie Gymnasium promptly at G:30 P. M. Saturday evening. Tick-ets which are seventy-five cents for the general public and fifty cents for girls residing at either dormi-tory, must be purchased before noon today. The menu, though not released for publication, promises to be a good one and will be pre-pared and served by the Ladies' Aid Society of Trinity Church.

Guest speaker of the evening will be Dr. Frederick Yonkman, professor at the College of Medi-cine of Wayne University. Dr. Yonkman is a graduate of Hope, Class of '25, and brother of Fri tzi Yonkman, present junior. Upon graduat ing from Hope, Dr. Yonk-man spent two years each at Iowa State and Yale University. Before r e c e i v i n g his appointment to Wayne, he spent some years teach-ing at Boston University.

Other features of the program of which Clint Harrison, Student Council president, is master of ceremonies, will be selections by the Trombone Quartette, composed of John Kleis, p r e s e n t junior, and alumni Bob Swart, Gord Van Wyk, and Cy Voogd; remarks by Dr. Wichers, and music by Bob Scheerhorn and the orchestra with vocalist Bud White. The Queen and her court will reign at the head table.

Red, White, Blue Featured

Decorations for the affair will be in keeping with the theme of the Homecoming activities, "Vic-tory fo r Hope and Hope for Vic-tory." There will be a red, white, and blue "false ceiling" converging to a flag in the center of the room. Walls will be trimmed with red, white, and blue paper and the in-signias of the various service branches. Tables will be decked with colored bunting and red, white, and blue candles.

General chairmen of all Home-coming activities have been Seniors Millie Timmer and Al Weenink. They have been assisted by Sub-chairmen George Lumsden, pep meeting; Jean Ruiter and E t s Kleinjans, banquet; Edith Klaaren, decorations; Louis Becker, pub-licity; and Mimi Moncade, alumni bulletins.

42 Y earbook Scores First Class Honor Rating in NSPA

Just released to the editors of the '42 Milestone are the ratings, criticisms, and comments as made by the National Scholastic Press association. From the Ail-Ameri-can Critical Service, the Milestone, the H o p e C o l l e g e yearbook, emerged with a first class honor rating.

The judging of the yearbook was made upon comparison with the books considered the best in their division. These divisions are made according to the number of stu-dents in the school, and to the type of school the yearbook is rep-resentative of. The Milestone was entered in the division of univer-sities and colleges with the enroll-ment of students from 500 to 999.

The rat ing was made upon the t reatment of the book as a whole with special recognition given to the book as it was divided into its various parts. Special emphasis was placed upon the excellent way with which the athletic set-up was dealt. This included the complete and interesting write-ups of the games and the action pictures ac-companying them.

The headings or captions of the various divisions of the book re-ceived s p e c i a l favor with t h e judges. The division of school life, its ar rangements of pictures, views, and portrayal of campus ac-tivities were all highly commended.

All in all, the plan, content and organization, together with the ap-pearance, effect, and originality of the 1942 Milestone received high recommendations and praises from the judges.

The 1942 yearbook was a product of the present senior class. Milton Verburg was editor, Edith Klaaren, associate, and Seymour Padnos was business manager. A literary and business staff of twenty-three jun-iors helped make the book a suc-cess.

German Club Plans to

Elect New Officers

The first German Club meeting of the semester was held on Wednesday evening, Oct. 14. Since most of the officers elected last year have left school a short busi-ness meeting was held to make plans for a new election a t the next meeting. The group sang a few songs in German and ad-journed down town for ice cream cones. Any second year German student or anyone having had two years of high school German may join the club, but Pres. Ruth Van Bronkhorst warns tha t only Ger-man will be spoken at fu ture meet-ings.

Homecoming Is Time tor Remembrance Homecoming! Old grads return and the whole student

body tingles with excitemcnt! Yet behind this excitement is some serious thought. What have Home College grads of the past 75 years done? What have they accomplished; If we look into the records they'll show us that, judging by the millionaires she's turned out, Hope has been a big failure. Yes, if Hope's grads had headed for money, we could have had a new science building twenty years ago. But they didn't. However, if we measure human achievement by the amount of world-wide service done, then Hope's grads are second to none. The men and women that Hope has sent out in three-quarters of a c e n t u r y are, and have been, servants of humanity.

W^at made and kept them that way? What was the motivating force behind their lives? No, it wasn't money. How about knowledge and intellect? Or was it science? Could it have been a lust for personal glory? No! No! No! Surely it was something else. Something greater than money, knowledge or science. But what was it? It was an intangible something which can be summed up in the words, "Faith of Our Fathers."

Then the question comes, do we still have that motivating force on the campus today? Or do other things come first? Are we stressing science and intellect too much ? Money talks and always will; but isn't it talking a little too much? Perhaps our many extra-curricular activities take too much of our time. Are we putting first things first? It is impossi-ble for one person to answer all these questions. However, we are sure that as v.e celebrate our first war Homecoming, we could afford to pause and say with Rudyard Kipling, "Lord God of Hosts, l)e with us yet; Lest we forget ; . . . Lest we forget!"

WORRY . . . WASHINGTON — (ACP» —Lat-

est Washington figures show that college enrollment has fallen off at least 10 per cent; the final fig-ure may prove to be much higher. Nobody knows yet exactly how drastic the drop.

War needs for technical and pro-fessional men have probably kept enrollment in such courses at a relatively high level. However, the liberal ar ts curricula have taken a kick in the face which, as an offi-cial in the Office of Education here put it, is "somewhat disturbing."

What 's the answer? Apparently there isn't any while the war lasts. And it's a moot question whether an answer should be sought before the war's end.

Manpower Commissioner McNutt has said that "non-essential courses we have come to regard as essen-tial to a classical education must be replaced. This war demands chemists, engineers, doctors, ex-perts in nutrition, public health and agriculture."

Then there were Secretary of War Stimson's two contradictory statements of recent date which, once unraveled, seemed to echo McNutt.

• •

Since there's nothing to be done about war-inspired c u r r i c u l u m changes, the attention of educators here is now focused on two prob-lems: gett ing a specific policy on the Selective Service s ta tus of col-lege men, and clearing the way for much more government-financed college training.

The former presents some knotty problems. Shall deferment depend entirely upon the courses t aken? Then what courses shall be basis for deferment? How fa r along in his studies should a student be be-fore he is considered for defer-ment, if at all? And what about the 18 and 19-year-olds if the age limit is lowered?

Some of these questions have been partially answered, but on the whole the answers have been inadequate and confusing. A clear-cut system is needed.

The question of gett ing more funds to finance capable students was answered in small measure last spring when Congress appropri-ated $5,000,000 for student loans. The money is being loaned to stu-dents major ing in physics, chem-1 istry, engineering, medicine (in-cluding veterinary), dentistry and

i pharmacy. 1 But sources here point out that Lhe fund is not nearly large enough. Four millions have already been allocated to 240 colleges, and the balance of $1,000,000 will be par-celed out soon. On the average, the schools got only half the mone> requested. And requests were pre-sumably based on direst need.

In order to get a loan from this fund a student must be studying under the wart ime speedup plan, i situation that makes it virtually impossible for him to take a job )n the side, or to work during the summer. If he can't get a loan and must have help to get through school, there is on'y one answer — get out! Which may mean that a man already partially trained for highly specialized work goes into military service to do a job that might be done by any one of thou-sands of untrained recruits.

Severe, wartime logic leaves no room for argument on the question of whether there should be more funds for this purpose. The ques--ion of who slia'l have an education •hould never be left to economic •hance, or mischance. In wart ime it cannot be.

An official here points out that 'if need can be shown, supplemen-.al funds may be forthcoming." It is Congress, of course, that must be 'shown." The question is do congressmen recognize ' ' n e e d ' ' when it scratches their eyeballs? JOBS . . .

About all you have to do now :.f you can use a federal job is ask for it. Since the outbreak of war in September, 1939, the number of persons on the government payro'l has considerably more than dou-bled.

• •

Right now, for example, there are openings for technical assist-ants in engineering, metallurgy or physics for applicants who have completed one, two or three years of college. The pay ranges from $1,440 to $1,800 a year.

» »

Dietitians are being sought for jobs paying $1,800 annually. Re-quirements have been loosened.

If, by odd chance, you want to come to Washington you can s tar t work as a junior clerk the third day a f t e r you arrive. You need one day to put in your application and another to take a routine test . The pay is $1,440 a year. Because va-cancies must be filled promptly the

Brother Ratt, You, my dear friend, may do your bit by appearing at the big

Alumni reception on Saturday. In fact , you may have charge of decora-tions for the big event. It is to be held in the phone booth in Graves Hall. I'm sure that a few split participles and dangling modifiers would suffice as "homey" homecoming decorations.

Dear Quizzed Kidd, As an alumnus, I am of course interested in the football game to

be played on Saturday. I would like to know just what condition the 'squad is in, and whether or not it looks like a big day for the "Dutch."

Howie Smackem.

My Dear Mr. Smackem, It touches me deeply to know that you are so greatly interested in

the well being of the football squad, and I am moved to tears when I say that although the boys are in fairly decent physical condition, shock and overindulgence have left their marks. You see, the boys won 'heir game at Hillsdale last week . . . that accounts for the shock. And those cigars of Herb Van Tongeren didn't help any when it came to keeping strict training rules. Nevertheless, Coach Hinga has been pulling plenty of things lately (a tendon for one) and he'll pull this game out of the fire. Hope for Victory . . . Victory for Hope.

He added that "75 per cent of the failures in the study of navi-gation must be attr ibuted to the 'ack of adequate knowledge of mathematics. A candidate for train-ing for a commission in the naval reserve cannot be regarded as good naterial unless he has taken suf-ficient mathematics."

Co-eds Advised not to

Fear War Marriage by

H'western Counsellor (ACP)—Marry if you are ready

for matrinmony, but don't wed if you are not prepared, was the ad-vice on war marriages given to Indiana university co-eds by Mrs. Ruth 0. McCam, counsellor to women at Northwestern university.

"There is no simple rule or prin-ciple for a good marriage," she said. "There are hazards in all marriages and war increases these hazards. But, even so, we marry on fa i th ."

"In the years ahead, it is going to be increasingly difficult to work out our relationships with men due to men and women being called fo r the armed forces and for industrial defense work," Mrs. McCarn said. "There will be dislocations of fam-ilies and delinquencies are bound to result."

Mrs. McCam expressed the hope tha t all Indiana university co-eds marry .

"But marry wisely," she advised. "One of the grea t advantages of a co-educational institution is tha t i t can serve as a matrimonial bu-reau."

Hope's Grads Reassemble On Campus

To Inspect, Reflect, and Recollect "Tempus fugi t s , " doesn't it, as

we "grads ," old and new, reminisce on the times when we were frosh, just beginning those four, glorious years at Hope. Some of us older grads remember when the campus was a lot different f rom the mod-ern version; when we went to chapel in Graves Hall, which is now the joint property of the li-brary and the office staff. That was before Dr. Dimnent got plans underway for Hope Memorial Chapel. Even we, of the class of '41, notice a great many changes on the campus. Most noteworthy are the completion and usage of the new science building, (by the way, are we ever going to give it a name other than "the new Science Building?"), and the miraculous transformation of the old Men's Dorm into Van Vleck Hall, Dormi-tory for Freshmen Women.

Walking along the campus we

see many new faces but with fa-

miliar expressions. There go two

frosh fellows, labeled so, not only

by the green they're sporting, but

also by the bewildered "What ' s

the score?" expressions on their faces. We are accosted by several sophomores, eager to show oq their sophomores, eager to show off their

inside of college life. While we a t tempt to be interested listeners as they tell us how antique we are in campus verbal technique, we look around to see if we can't spot some of the junior class.

They aren ' t very hard to pick

out, either. The juniors are the

ones who go around with intent

I m AWFULLY busy" expressions

on their sober faces. Finally get-

t ing rid of our informative sophs,

we, (those of us in the classes

39-41) see several famil iar faces,

those of members of the senior class. They were only freshmen when we were at Hope. And, how they've changed! But then, we have, too. Maybe our waistlines aren' t the 22 we used to pride our-selves on having, and maybe our hairline has receded quite a bit, but, fundamental ly we are still typical Hopeites.

Yes, despite the physical changes here on the campus — and else-where, there 's one th ing tha t has not changed throughout the years, the t rue "HOPE SPIRIT." We grads, class of '98, '23, '34, or '41, all agree tha t this, Hope's strong-est influence and greates t virtue, is still the same!

Issue of Debaters Is Federal Union of United Nations

T r y o u t s fo r the men's and women's debate squads will be held the first week in November. Stu-dents interested in debating should begin securing material on this topic: Resolved: "That the United Nations should establish a perma-nent federal union with power to :ax and regulate commerce, to set-,le international disputes and to •nforce such settlements, to main-ain a police force and to provide

for the admission of other nations which accept the principles of the union." The debate topic was chosen by a committee composed of members of Pi Kappa Delta, Delta Sigma Rho, and Tau Kappa Alpha, under the sponsorship of the National Association of Speech Teachers.

— Robert J . Woods, whose college professors told him he never would be an aeronautical engineer, is the Youngstown-bom designer of the Bell Airacuda and the Bell Aira-cobra.

Woods was orphaned at 17 and worked to send himself through high school and night school. When tiis family's estate was settled, he received $1,200 and with this money attended the University of Michi-gan.

One day one of his professors detained him long enough to ad-vise: "Woods, you'd better give up your aeronautical engineering and specialize in something else. You're just not cut out for it. You'll never make an aeronautical engineer. It's not in you."

Af ter a series of positions with and Towle Aircraft Co., the De-troit Aviation Corp., Lockheed and Consolidated, Woods went with Bell as a chief engineer, when he was 30.

HOPE BATTLES BRITONS TOMORROW Homecoming Tilt Appears Toss-up for Hope, Albion

A closely fought battle is in the offing as Hope and Albion come to grips tomorrow in the annual Hope College Homecoming football game. This game promises to be one packed with excitement and thrills; for, although Albion at the begin-ning of the season was rated the best team in the conference, Hope has shown that it has the offei'sive and defensive spirit that may de-feat them.

The odds in some ways seem to greatly favor Albion, for they started their grid schedule with 16 lettermen returning and also with the largest squad in the league, some 64 men. In the backfield they have Stevens, the fastest man in the conference, and Schneider, who shone brightly in last Satur-day's game against Lake Forrest. The Albion line averages 182 pounds, which is almost as heavy as the University of Michigan line. Albion already has defeated such teams as Ohio Northern and Hills-dale. The fact that Albion took Hillsdale by the score of 14-12, while Hope defeated the same team 13-6, would seem to favor Hope. Hope's victory was due, no doubt, to the shaking up of the team be-fore last week's game, and if the same combination can click in the game tomorrow they should be able to take Albion to the clean-ers.

De F o u w , K a r e l Lost

The loss of Don De Fouw in the fullback position due to injuries was a blow to Coach Hinga's plans, as De Fouw is an all MIA A full-back and the position of a brilliant player such as he is hard to fill. And Bud Karel, who showed so much talent in the backfield in his freshman year, is also out for the rest of the season because of in-juries. Hut there is a ray of hope for the local eleven in the form of "Gabby" Van Dis who, although he has never played football be-fore, stepped into De Fouw's shoes at fullback with pep and spirit and displayed a rare talent for the game. It seems that Harvey Koop, Hope captain, has found his ele-ment by being switched from tackle to guard, and is playing a hangup game in this position. It will be a toss-up as to who will replace Koop at tackle, but it will probably be Bill Draper or Bud Koranda. Dale VanLente, who re-placed Rowan at center, played the entire 60 minutes at Hillsdale and never made a bad pass. So there may be a better chance for the local eleven than the figures show.

G a t n e S u r e to Be ( l o s e

But whoever wins, it still prom-ises to be a closely contested game, because in the eleven years that Hope has played under Coach Mil-ton Hinga, the difference in scores between the two teams has never been more than one touchdown. In 11>4() Albion defeated Hope at Hol-land 6-0 in the closing seconds of the game on a blocked punt, and in 1941 A l b i o n again defeated Hope on a long pass with three minutes left to play in the first half, 7-0.

It appears that the line-up for Hope will be the same as last week, for Coach Hinga was well pleased with their performance and he has the utmost confidence in their abil-ity to repeat this week. Albion will probably start Simpson, Stev-ens, Schneider and Linn in the backfield, with Dales and Clucas at ends. In the tackle positions Stanford and Rodda, while the guards will be Clark and Parent. Bensley at center will fill out the powerful line.

In the backfield are Roy Davis Dick Higgs, Don De Fouw and Bud Karel. '

Hinga's Gridders Anxious to Change Record of Homecoming

The Dutchmen, led by C o a c h Hinga, should have plenty of zest for victory as they meet Albion for the second time in twelve home-jomings. First of all, Hope hasn't won a homecoming since 1936, when Hillsdale wus whipped 6-0. Be-sides this, the Dutchmen have some scores to settle with Albion. Two years ago the Britons spoiled Hope's homecoming by winning a hard fought game 6-0. Then last year Albion ruined Hope's cham-pionship aspirations by winning 7-0 on a rainsoaked field. Those games were heartbreakers and C o a c h Hinga and the boys are determined to do a little heartbreaking of their own.

Hope's homecoming record shows four victories, five defeats, and two ties. A victory would put Hope back in the .500 column.

Following are the scores of th? last eleven seasons:

1941—Kalamazoo 7, Hope 7 1940—Albion 6, Hope 7 1939—Hillsdale 30, Hope 6 1938—Alma 13, Hope 7 1937—Alma 3, Hope 0 1936—Kalamazoo 13, Hope 7 1935—Hillsdale 0, Hope 6 1934—Hillsdale 6, Hope 14 1933—Alma 12, Hope 19 1932—Alma 0, Hope 9 1931—Hillsdale 19, Hope 19

Local Armory, Ordered Closed to Public Last Spring, Re-opened Now

Word has been reecived that Holland armory, closed to the pub-lic since last spring when the Holland Company of Michigan State Troops was called out to patrol the Sojourner Truth Hous-ing Section in Detroit, will be re-opened for athletic contests.

Since the armory is the site of all Hope basketball contests, had the re-opening of the building not been approved by the state adju-tant ' s office in Lansing, Hope's '42-'43 basketball season would have been seriously crippled. The recent announcement gave the college as-surance of a playing floor. How-ever, as members of the Hope civil-ian pilot training course are to be drilled in the army, daily practices will still have to be held in the gym.

Third Period Pass Attack Helps Hope Trip Dale 13 to 6

The Hope C o l l e g e Dutchmen j loosed a third period passing at-tack Saturday afternoon to offset the rushing ability of Hillsdale College, and walked off the field with a well earned 13 to 6 triumph. It is the Hingamen's second con-ference game, the first having been played a week ago at Kalamazoo, and that is, of course, in the past. The local victory places Hope in fourth place, with Albion and Al-ma tied for first, Kalamazoo in second and Hillsdale roosting very lonely in the cellar. With two games remaining for the Dutch in the conference, both of them against first position teams, the chances seem slim for a first divi-sion, but there is no rule in the books that says an upset is illegal.

The game Saturday afternoon started slow, with both teams driv-ing hard a t the line and the Dales seemingly winning out in this stage of the game, chalking up 15 first downs to 9 for Hope, and outrush-ing the locals two to one from scrimmage. But the Dutch had a passing attack that couldn't be stopped, and with Dick Higgs pitch-ing the ball most of the afternoon two touchdowns were chalked up via this route.

The third quarter scoring spree

for the Dutch consisted in a 62-

yard drive; most of the distance

was traveled via the air route. The

tally came on a pass from "Gabby"

Van Dis (who, by the way, is in

his first year of football and played

his first full game against the

Dales, showing some speed and

tricks known only to more experi-

enced players) to "Hoots" Rowan,

who juggled the ball af ter it had

slipped off the nands of a Dales player, but finally tucked it away and bounced over for the score. Quarterback Roy Davis converted.

The second score came af te r an exchange of punts and Hope took over on the midfield stripe, where a long run by Van Dis and passes from Higgs set up the final Dutch tally. Higgs completed a beautiful day of football by pitching a bullet pass to Fullback Joey Noorthoek, | who caught it in the end zone.

With but five minutes of playing time remaining in the game, and c a n had with the ball on their own 26-yard line, the Dales came through for their only touchdown of the game. Halfback Tom Ward faded deep for a pass, failed to find a suitable re-c e i v e r , then side-stepped and straight-armed his way for 72 yards and a touchdown. The gun sounded and Hope had won its first game of the year.

Outstanding player for the Dutch was Captain Harvey Koop who, in his new position at guard, played one of the best games of his long career. Green, but plenty flashy, "Gabby" Van Dis also played a stellar game at halfback. The Hope eleven will conclude the season with a three-game home stand, commencing with the Albion Home-coming tilt Saturday afternoon.

Marksmanship In

Prospcct For Hope

Reservist Training Compulsory physical education

for all Hope men students got fully underway this week. All physically fit male students are now taking three hours of physi-cal education every week; with the Reservists under a more intensive training, taking an additional two hours per week.

If arrangements can be complet-ed with the Holland Rifle Club, marksmanship will be included in the Reservists' training. If this is included, Herman Prins, noted Holland marksman, and other mem-bers of the Holland Rifle Club will instruct the Reservists.

Jack Schouten, director of Phys-ical education, has planned a com-plete training program for all Hope men. The object of the program s primarily to improve physical

fitness and at the same time pro-mote discipline, co-ordination, self-confidence, and aggressiveness.

Included in the physical educa-tion program are callisthenics, mil- j itary dri.l, and competitive exer- i cises. The latter includes various j track distances—from 100 yards to : he three and a half cross country

run, throwing, vaulting, wall-scal-ing, boring, wrestling and jujitsu. First aid instruction will also be included.

Ringing the bell this week-end is Hope's "five s t a r " attraction, Home-coming, which naturally means a football game. Last year's game was proof enough that a Homecoming game can't be jilted by even the weather man and this year's classic should be no exception. Admittedly Hope is up against real competition, but that shouldn't dampen the spirit of either the fans or the players. Hope has pulled real upsets

Tonight at the pep meeting the student body of Hope will be in-troduced to a new group of cheer leaders. After a weak start in the cheering section, especially at the U.G.R. and Kalamazoo games it is hoped that a new day has ar-rived.

There will be seven, four sent from heaven, leading cheers for Hope tonight at the pep meeting and tomorrow at the Homecoming , game. The new squad consists of Mimi Moncada, Viv Moncton, Von-nie Yntema, Fran Van Duzer. Jim Braddock. Bob Nyboer and Al Ryp-stra.

Some new cheers will be intro- i duced and it is hoped that better cooperation of the student body !

S T U D I O N e x t to Center T h e a t r e

After the showing that the Hope eleven made at Kazoo on the even-ing of October 10, Coach Hinga made a revision in his s tar t ing line-up. The change proved to be a good one, for our boys returned Saturday evening with the first conference victory of the season. The start ing line-up which was used Saturday was as follows:

Nieusma—L. E "Eddie" i still holding down his position

on the end of the line and doing a fine job.

Pape—L. T. . . . Len also was in his regular place . . . at tackle. He played a good game at Hills-dale and is still the same hard-hitting player.

Koop—L. G. . . This was Harvey's first game at guard, having been switched from the right tackle position. Harv did not seem to be clicking at tackle so the change became necessary. The switch proved to be a good one for he played an outstanding game at Hillsdale.

Van Lente—C. . . . Dale took over the center position and played his first full game Saturday. He showed up well in his first ap-pearance since taking over full responsibility of this position.

Dick—R. G. . . . Len shared this position with Yeomans and play-ed his usual fine style of ball.

Draper—R. T. . . . Bill is taking over the position left vacant by Koop s change to the other side of the line. Although he has not yet mastered all the fine points necessary to play this

position, he has great possibili-

ties and is steadily improving.

Slager—R. E. . . . George is still

holding his own in his old posi-

tion at the right flank.

Davis Q. B. . . Played a bang-up defensive game. Davis was re-placed by Noorthoek, who caught a short pass from Higgs in the third quarter and lugged it over the Hillsdale goal line. Roy made good at one attempt at convert-ing, which came af te r the first touchdown. His second missed the uprights.

Higgs L. H. . . . "J ig^s" starred in Saturday's contest, playing a great game. He did most of the kicking and passing as well as some nice running, and set up one of the Hope touchdowns.

Van Dis—F. B The star of last week's game with Kazoo played his first full game against Hillsdale Saturday. He did an exceptional job, throwing a pass to Rowan which was good f j r a touchdown. Van Dis definitely is going to be a star on the grid-iron this year.

Rowan—R. H "Hoots" has been changed from the center of the line to the backfield where he played last year. Rowan snag ged a pass to score the first touchdown of the game.

The WAA Board, which engi-

neers all the doin's of the Women's

Athletic Association, has been

meetin' of late, and all sorts of

plans emerge for publication in

De Yanker." Old business is the

breakfast hike which Betty Kamps

and Milly Scholten handled one

Saturday A. M. before any of you

were awake, except of course, you

twenty-four brave souls who left

the arms of Morpheus to venture

out. The ole Four-mile saw activity

of a different sort from the tra-

ditional type for which the trail has been noted for centuries—well, not exactly centuries, but eons anyway. 1 he hike was pronounced successful and all the outdoor gals drank milk, ate sweet rolls, and munched yummy apples.

"But what of the fu tu re?" (Sounds kinda high and mighty like the 75th anniversary pa j or something.) Oh yes! Jack Schouten, patron daddy of the WAA, and Milly Scholten have been scouting about at the stables, getting the dope on rates and transportation to 'n fro. Announcement later.

Here's what's what for the com-in' up year. The ossifers of WAA, enpassant, are Florence Dykema,' prexy; Syd MacGregor, holder of

the bags; and Rosemary Winstrom, writer-up of the books.

But on that "Something New" feature has been added. Volleybftll'-wiH have a bigger place on theV association's winter sched., and basketball will have to retreat just a little, so one round of each can be played. Rosie Winstrom will handle basketball; Jean Ruiter, volleyball. Ruiter is also tennis supervisor. 'Course Mill Scholten'II chargee d'affaires equestriennes. (Reminds me of something I read once — a dissertation on "Horns — Both Green and Saddle"). Keg-lers, be informed that Betty Kamps is holding down your end. But be patient. That 's not for awhile yet. As to baseball to be headed up by Virginia Ewing in the spring when young men's fancie lightly turns to tho'ts of love and when the maple trees get sappy. (And don't ask where I heard THAT!!) Arch-ery comes then, too.

Swimmin' you'll have to take care

of on your own respective hooks

and guess why we can't go to G. R.

for it!! You can paddle around in

the lake or puddle in your tub, but

the G. R. YWCA is out for now.

Snuff for now, me pretties, just

get diggin' in on these doin's while

the weather's nice. Let's see you

make hay while the sun shines.
