Both Room and Board Raised

$100 Fee Increase Announced for Next Yeax A $1()0 increase in s tudent room

and board fees will go into effect next fall, due to a decision m a d e by the Executive Commit tee of the Board of Trustees . Pres ident Calvin VanderWerf announced today.

The announcement stated tha t the Execut ive Commit tee prescr ibed a $50 hike in both room and board expenses , raising room costs to $,350 per year and board fees to $500 per yea r . Added to the $950 per y e a r tuition rate, this will bring the total year ly cost of a Hope College education to $1800.

A 20 to 25 per cent increase in the upkeep cost of dormi tor ies and dining halls and the cost of employ-ing personnel to main ta in them m a d e the hike necessary , accord ing to Henry Steffens. Vice Pres iden t , f inance. The last increase in board charges , in 1%2. was $50. while the latest room expense ra i se was $20.

in 1963.

As stated in the 1966 Hope College Catalog. "The College rese rves the right to increase the board fees a i any t ime it may find it necessary to do so." Thus the Execut ive Com-

mi t tee was able to m a k e the change without the approval of the full Board.

The increase c o m e s in the face of the following s t a t emen t made by the Board of Trus tees at their annual meet ing last October: "We feel that any increase in tuition would significantly and substanti-ally change the c h a r a c t e r of the College as we have known it for a cen tu ry . " The room and board rise will also mean a slight increase in the cur ren t 86.3 pe rcen tage of the cost of education being paid by Hope students .

When asked if he expec ts any fu r the r increase in tuition or room and board next yea r , P re s iden t VanderWerf said. " I do not fore-s e e any fu r the r increase , al though the decision depends on our success in raising the d i f ference between what the student pays and the total cost of his educat ion. Since our giving has great ly increased this y e a r , there is reason to believe tha t no increase will be n e c e s s a r y . "

A new thrust in the a rea of church relat ions and church giving w a s mentioned by Pres iden t Vander-

Werf as a potential source of funds for r i s ing costs. Under Stuar t Post , recent ly appointed Director of Church and Communi ty Relat ions, a p r o g r a m to develop close ties with each Refo rmed Church congre-gation by ident i fying the s tudents f rom each " h o m e c h u r c h " is being initiated. At p resen t . Re fo rmed Church congregat ions contr ibute about $75 per s tudent per y e a r to Hope College. " I t is hoped that through this p r o g r a m the churches will realize a keener sense of re-sponsibi l i ty ." Pres iden t Vander-Werf said.

Application Forms for Draft Test

Now Available in Records Office Application forms for the Select-

ive Service College Qualification Test, the non-mandatory examina-tion which will be used by local draft boards as a criterion for de-termining the college student's draft classification, are now available in the Records Office of Van Raal-te.

The application deadline for the three-hour . 150-question e x a m is April 23. Official information con-cerning the applicat ion amd test p rocedures as well as a list of 20 sample questions a re avai lable for study in the Records Office.

The College Qualification Test to-ge ther with the male s tuden t ' s class rank will aid local d r a f t boards in their ef for ts to place more men on the I-A list to provide a larger base for the high monthly draf t call due to the war in Vie tnam. It is expected that in genera l the

boards will use an a l t e rna t ive sy-s t em: They will use ei ther class rank or test score as the determin-ing factor , whichever is higher .

Dean of Men Thomas Carey said tha t in de te rmin ing class rank the Records Office will probably

submi t the s tudent ' s rank based upon e i ther his cumula t ive g rade point ave rage or his g rade point ave rage for the previous semes te r , whichever is h igher . Students wishing to know their c lass rank or to be advised a s to whether they should take the test should see Dean Carey in his office in Van Raal te .

In applying for the test, the stu-dent must list his test center choice for each of the three test da tes : May 14. May 21 and June 3. Selective Service r e se rves the right to ass ign one testing date of the three to the

appl icant . The Hope tests will be adminis tered in G r a v e s Auditorium, where 200 testees per session will be admit ted . Tes tees will be finger-printed upon a d m i t t a n c e to prevent proxy-cheat ing.

Stuart Post Appointed To Hope Administration

of the present Board of Directors and the philosophy of Pres iden t VanderWerf . Mr. Post commen ted . "The College can go nowhere but up . "

Before a s suming his position a s director , Mr. Post rose f rom the " jungle of s a l e s " while working with

Many Important Figures In Hope's Arts Festival

Joins History Staff

Yugoslavian to Teach Here Dr. Paul Fried, cha i rman of the

Hope College history depar tment , today announced the addition of a >oung Yugoslav historian to the staff of the depar tment . Michael Petrovich, who holds a Master ' s de-gree f rom the University of Chi-cago, comes to Hope College with five yea r s of exper ience as a State-Depar tment in terpreter and escort officer for distinguished East Euro-pean visitors to the U.S. His ap-pointment to the Hope faculty un-derscores the interest of the college in the expansion of its offerings in this impor tant a rea of (he world.

A Yugoslav by birth, Mr. Petro-vich at tended e lementa ry and sec-ondary schools in Serbia, then be-gan his studies at the University of Ljubl jana < where Bob Donia spent the past s emes t e r ) . At the age of 21 Mr. Petrovich left his home in East-ern Europe and came to the U.S. He enrolled at Shepherd College, served as IRC president for his school, earned a varsity letter on the swimming t eam and logged some 100 hours as a gli;ler pilot. He also met the a t t rac t ive young lady who is now Mrs. Pet-rovich. b e c a m e a U.S. citizen and graduated with high distinction.

At the University of Chicago his mas t e r ' s thesis dealt with Yugo-slav-Soviet relations. He speaks English and Russian fluently, also Serbo-Croation, Slovene, Czech.

"No person shall be subject to . . . t ra ining and service in the a rmed forces . . . who, by reason of religious t raining and belief, is conscientiously opposed to partic-ipation in war . . .

The above s ta tement f rom the Draf t Act makes provision for thos'j young men who. being opposed to war for reasons of conscience, may apply for classification as a consci-entious objector — a C.O. — to avoid possibility of mili tary serv-ice precipi tated by the Vietnam conflict. This can be done by writing the local d ra f t board, and request-ing them to send SSS Form 150. the special form for C.O.'s. If a stu-dent is reclassif ied I-A due to low class s tanding or to a low grade on the coming dra f t tests, he must appeal to his local board within 10 days of the date when the notice of classification was sent out if he wishes to be given a C.O. classifi-cation.

The student who is opposed to war and then finds that he is no longer eligible for a 2-S de fe r rmen t has four a l te rnat ives f rom which to choose: he can grit his teeth and, in compliance to the ethics of the major i ty , submit to mili tary serv-ice; he can a t t empt to get 1-A-O status, for non-combatant mili tary duty; he can seek a 1-0 position, which calls for a l ternat ive civilian service for the duration of his nor-mal mil i tary service; or he can re-

Bulgarian. Macedonian and French . Mr. Petrovich 's interests in spor ts and hobbies a re equally varied. He is an expert skier, has played soccer in Yugoslavia and in the U.S.. and likes table tennis and chess, as well as painting and sculpture.

At Hope Mr. Petrovich will teach courses in Russian history and Eu-ropean Civilization both this sum-mer and next fall. During the sum-mer he will also take part in the special s u m m e r session for inter-

fuse to cooperate with the d ra f t law, and face a max imum fine of $10,000 a n d / o r five years in prison.

Men getting 1-A-O ranking a r e us-ually trained for medical service and occasionally for office work or a mil i tary band. 1-O's typically serve as hospital a t tendants , or government and social welfare per-sonnel either in the U.S. or abroad . Non-cooperators ' prison sentences tend to be less than the m a x i m u m .

The World Council of Churches, the world's largest Protes tant or-ganization, has delineated three Christian at t i tudes toward war : ' 1' that while war may be a Christ ian 's duty in peculiar c i rcum-stances. modern war fa re can never be justif ied: <2) that it is the Chris-t ian 's duty to defend the law, whose ul t imate sanction is war; '3) that war is absolutely wrong, and an absolute witness for peace is the Christ ian 's duty.

Any student who is considering or evaluat ing the C.O.'s position may confer with Chaplain Hillegonds. While Rev. Hillegonds does not share the C.O.'s viewpoint, he is willing to counsel others to help them construct their personal view?

national s tudents which will bring eight Yugoslav students to our cam-pus as par t of the GLCA Yugoslav-American Seminar p rog ram initi-ated last year .

Mr. Pet rovich. who visited Hope twice during the past several months when he was still es-corting Eas t European V I P ' s for the State Depar tment , is eagerly looking forward to his u o r k at Hope College. "I be-lieve that there a re t remen-dous opportunit ies for growth h e r e . " he explained. "1 have found the faculty very friendly and the stu-dents eager to learn ."

In his "Last Chance" talk to the student body of Hope College, Dr. Lars Granbe rg spoke about educa-tional vaccinat ions and their rela-tion to Christianity. Titled "My Vaccination Didn't Take , " the ad-dress dealt with how moral i sm in-hibits the educational process.

Education, he said, is a vaccina-tion against a closed mind. An open-minded person, one with a capaci ty to reconcile and synthesize ideas, is (he truly educated man . Fur ther-more. it is not one's stand on an issue, but r a the r his approach to it, that m a r k s an open mind. Thus, personality fac tors present before education begins sometimes affect the effect iveness of the vaccina-tion.

The " regress ive cycle of moral-i sm" is the factor that most often closes a m a n ' s mind. The moral is t can be seen in the brother of the Prodigal Son. whose approach to

Relationship Between Local

Children and Thefts Feared Call Commitment

Edi tor ' s note: Mrs . Rober t Cecil, a 1946 child psychology m a j o r grart-ua te of Vassa r College, is the di-rec to r of the Higher Horizons pro-g r a m at Hope. Since its inception three yea r s ago. the college-spons-ored p rogram to provide "b ig broth-e r s " and "b ig s i s t e r s " for g rade-schoolers has grown f r o m 40 to 175 children. Mrs. Cecil began with Higher Horizons as voluntary l b -son to the e l emen ta ry schools last ye? r . She and her husband , associ-a te professor of mus ic at Hope, served last s u m m e r as advisors for (he Vienna s u m m e r p r o g r a m .

By Mrs. Robert Cecil

Dick is a k i n d e r g i r t e n e r whose bro thers and s is ters a r e all in High-er Horizons. The youngest of five, he whines, clings and throws tan-t r u m s when the o thers leave on excurs ions with their "b ig s is ters or b ro the r s . " His fa ther left home two y e ^ r s ago and has r e m a r r i e d . His mo the r is doing the best she can

and meets most of the children'.? physical needs. Dick is a bright child and responsive to at tent ion and interest .

J u a n is 13. His large family is closely knit and the pa ren t s a r e ve ry interested in their chi ldren. They spend as much t ime with them as they can. although both work. Juan needs to become a pa r t of the communi ty , to meet new people, and to feel someone c a r e s about what he thinks. Next yea r he will be in the seventh g rade in a l a rge junior-high school where his limited background will put h i m

at more of a d i sadvan tage . He is a fine, likeable boy with much poten-tial.

These a re brief descr ipt ions of rea l boys 'whose n a m e s I h a v e changed) . There a re 30 others, in

s imi la r c i r cums tances , who need "b ig b ro the r s . " Higher Horizons is not for boys only, however . This yen r we h i v e had 210 children re-commended to us ' m o s t of the re-ques ts come f rom schools), and

95 of these a r e girls, a lmost of ail ot whom have "big s i s t e r s . "

The one-to-one re la t ionship of a child with a young adult is the f r a m e w o r k of Higher Horizons and the volunteer is the bas is of the pro-g r a m . Our purpose is to provide cul tural , social, and a c a d e m i c ex-per ience through a f r iendship with a Hope College student that will help a child to gain b roade r inter-es ts and to learn values in addition to ideas and skills.

Higher Horizons is nei ther a tu-torial p r o g r a m nor a rec rea t iona l

one. Our local school sys t em feels that tu tor ing would be an infringe-

ment on the pupi l - teacher relat ion-ship: a c a d e m i c coaching or help

with homework is of ten r eques ted by the t eache r s and m a n y act ivi t ies car. be academica l ly enr iching. Re-( rea t iona l activit ies, such as spor ts

or a r t s and c ra f t s , help the s tudent and child to become be t te r acquain-

ted and a r e a way to put the fr iend-ship on a f i r m e r basis while hav-ing fun together . "Th ings to do to-g e t h e r " should be planned with the child 's in teres ts , needs and age in mind. A s tudent is of ten tempted to rush a child into an " e n r i c h i n g " exper ience before consider ing the child 's wil l ingness or read iness for it. For one little boy and his "b ig b r o t h e r , " last y e a r ' s a t t endance a t his f i rs t f o rma l concer t w a s unsat-isfactory. This yea r the s a m e child has visited college o rches t r a and band r e h e a r s a l s with his "big bro-t h e r " and a t tended the Indianapo-lis Symphony concert this month .

Higher Horizons began as a stu-dent act ivi ty and is still one. We h a v e an advisory board , and two Hope s tudents a r e m e m b e r s . My role as d i rec tor is to coordinate the p r o g r a m : to ma tch chi ldren with s tudents ; to talk with paren t s , t eachers and social agenc ies ; to find things to do; to a r r a n g e for pro-fessional help when n e c e s s a r y ; to keep up-to-date records on the

p rog ram and to a r r a n g e work-shops for s tudents .

Without Hope s tudents , Higher Horizons would not exist . Most stu-dents who take a " c h i l d " have had some exper ience working with chil-dren, but many of them a r e un-prepared for the depth of the ex-

perience. We ask all volunteers to sign a pledge that they will give

one or two hours weekly and will lei the child know if they can ' t keep appoin tments . Somet imes the t ime can be longer that tha t ; of ten the s tudent is surpr i sed by the w a y the child depends on him. In sp i te of this, the ma jo r i t y of s tudents find the t ime, love and pa t i ence to endure what to some might be d i sadvantages .

A student can find mee t ing with a child re laxing or s t imula t ing — dif ferent f rom his college life: Its fun to have a snowfight or m a k e popcorn. He can look forward to a child throwing open the door with a happy smile : "Where a re we go-ing t o d a y ? " The personal sa t i s fac-

tion he gets f r om his re la t ionship with the child is his r eward .

And what about Dick. J u a n and all the others? It s eems to m e tha t here is a chal lenge to Hope stu-dents . here is a "cal l to commi t -m e n t . " To be a volunteer in Higher Horizons is to realize the m e a n i n g of the words of St. F r a n c i s : "For it is in giving that we r e c e i v e . "

The la rge number s of local chil-dren who f requent the c a m p u s a f t e r dark represen t a p roblem which w a s brought to the at tent ion of the Student Sena te last week.

Most of these youngs te r s congre-ga te in the a r ea of the g y m n a s i u m every night. The girls who reside in Columbia Cottage reported num-erous incidents of h a r a s s m e n t which have taken place in recent weeks. Columbia is isolated f rom most of the other dormitor ies , and girls walking back f rom the l ibrary and music buildings have been bothered . These incidents have varied f rom the use of obscene language to actual a t t e m p t s at " p a s s e s . "

During the day t ime these chi ldren have been found in a lmost every men ' s dormi tory and have become a cons iderable nuisance . Men in Zwemer noted that their res idence is often used as a tho roughfa re for school chi ldren on their way to Lin-coln School in the morn ing . In Kol-len Hall sma l l children have been found r o a m i n g the building. The s a m e is t rue in the f r a t houses.

Recently a rash of thef ts h a s occurred in the dormi tor ies , some of which have been a t t r ibu ted to these chi ldren. In the Knick House several BB guns were pi l fered by youngsters , who were caught leav-ing the house. Another child w a s found going through a F r a t e r ' s ca r in the p a r k i n g lot. A radio was stolen in Z w e m e r but la ter recov-ered. Mail in the Knick house has been t a m p e r e d with and a check removed . Money is miss ing f rom

7:30 p .m . Rode to turnpike with a guy and wife going to Ohio look-ins' for work. Old '57 Chevy. Ho liked the S u p r e m e s and played WLS

real loud. Wife didn ' t say much.

9 p.m. Got a ride onto the turn-pike f rom truck dr iver going to P i t t sburgh . He rode hunched over

the wheel . . . del ivered p a p e r supplies. But he liked poetry and

there was a copy of " P a r a d i s e Los t" on the sea t . He said it w a s "p re t ty h e a v y . " but impor tan t to read. His favor i te was Fros t . Thought Berl inget t i needed " m a t u r -

was stolen f r o m the lockers of severa l baseba l l p l aye r s in the gym. according to Coach Daryl Sicdentop.

Big b ro the r s and s is ters in the Higher Horizons p r o g r a m have been asked not to allow their youngs te r s to roam una t tended in the dormi-tories. This is a s much for their protection as for any other reason. According to Gordon T i m m e r m a n , Head Resident in Kollen Hall, the youngs te r s he f inds in the halls of ten c la im they a r e in the build-ing 'to meet their big b r o t h e r . " No Higher Horizon child has ever been apprehended actual ly s tea l ing any-thing to the best knowledge of Mr. T i m m e r m a n and Mrs. Dorothy Cecil, head of Higher Horizons.

Mr. T i m m e r m a n suggested that /residents t ake tempta t ion away f rom anyone who might steal in the d o r m s by keeping their doors locked at all t imes . Mrs. Cecil said that s tudents should keep their c a r s locked also. In addit ion, she noted tha t if incidents continue, it might be necessary to look into the possi-bility of h i r ing a c a m p u s police-m a n .

A STUDENT CONSIDERS his empty purse, and wonders why text

books cost so much. Another wonders what the Book Store owner

joes with all his profi ts—"He doesn' t look that r ich; he must be

Dutch ." Still another gives up in exasperat ion and begs, borrows and steals

his s emes t e r ' s texts. And still another tr ies to resell his old books to pay

for new ones, and finds the Book Store won't buy. Why are book pr ices as

high as they a r e?

The consistent policy of Duffield Wade, m a n a g e r of the Blue Key Book

Store, is to sell books cheaply. The following is an excerpt f rom an article

on the Book Store published in the anchor, F e b r u a r y 26. 1960:

"I t is ' M r . Wade 's) task to oper-a te the s tore for the s tudents . His text-books, and gradual ly it ex-policy has a lways been to sell the panded to other books and miscel-Book Store i tems at the lowest pos-sible prices.

"Blue Key sells college text books at the regular publ isher ' s text price. This text price is usu-ally much less than the regular t rade price of the Books.

"Other i tems, it is usually ob-served. a re priced less than other schools ask for them.

" F u r t h e r , it is the policy of Mr.

laneous i tems. As this happened, the operation of the store became too complex to be handled by stu-dents, and a full-time m a n a g e r was hired by the adminis t ra t ion. And at some point in this development, the administrat ion began to absorb the profits which c a m e of the ex-pansion. Now, according to Hope's Vice President , Finance, Henry Steffens, the adminis trat ion hires two employees, one full-t ime and one par t - t ime to m a n a g e the store.

Wade to be a ler t for any knowledge Currently Blue Key sales run bare-

of i tems seen e lsewhere at a lower price than at our store. He urges s tudents to acquaint him with any

such condition.

"The Book Store also main ta ins a s t andard policy for used books. If books a re to be re-used in courses on Hope's campus , the s tore will re turn 50 to 60 per cent of the ini-tial investment to the s tudent and then m a r k s ' s i c ' the used books up 20 per cent, depending on the risk of resale .

"Those books out of print or not used on Hope 's campus a re pur-chased as a favor to the student, at the price given by the used book companies with the cost of handling and shipping these books absorbed by the Blue Key Store.

"The Hope Chapter of Blue Kev uses a fund taken f rom the book store profi ts and turns it into a s tudent-centered gift or project .

The Blue Key Book Store was founded as a service of the Blue Key F ra t e rn i ty , and it f i rs t oper-ated exclusively as a non-profit used-book exchange. Soon af te r its founding, the s tore began to sell

ly over $100,000 during the aca-demic year ' l as t yea r ' s volume was approximate ly $102.0001, although in past yea r s volume has been con-siderably less and profit minimal . Eight to ten per cent of the store 's volume of sales is profit , which goes to the t reasury of Hope Col-lege. The Blue Key Fra te rn i ty , whose fourteen m e m b e r s contrib-ute 48 hours of service a week with-out pay, receives $1,500 a year for its help.

Although at one t ime the Blue Key Fra te rn i ty presented a yearly-gift to the school with its profits, this has not been done for several years . At the end of this year , according to Blue Key t r easure r J i m Lee, the f ra tern i ty will prob-

ably have about $700 left over after the expense of dinners , which a re held about once a month. The m e m b e r s of the f ra tern i ty cannot decide what is to be done with it. Some wish to spend it on them-selves, for pins or sweatshir ts , but since it is now too late to place these orders , the money will prob-ably be used for a scholarship.

Las t Year ' s Profi ts

Last yea r , then, the College gained between $8,000 and $10,000 f rom the operation of the Blue Key Book Store. However Mrs. Steffens pointed out that the college does not charge the store for rent, heat , light, telephone, janitor services or interest on the operat ing capital which the t reasury provides. Mr. Steffens quoted fees which the Col-lege might charge to the store, based on prevai l ing commercia l ra tes :

Rent and heat $1800 Jani tor , telephone, and light 600 Financial losses 2000 Wages for Blue Key help 2100

TOTAL $6500

However, the College does not lose

this amount of money from the s tore ' s profi ts by not charging these bills to the store. These are r a t es which would be charged were the store operat ing independently and keeping its own profits , in which case the College would still be gain-ing.

Mr. Steffens expressed the ex-pectation that , a s the College grows, the Book Store 's operat ing costs will not increase significantly, and because of the g rea t e r sales vol-ume, profi ts will increase .

According to Mr. Wade, the man-aging policy is still, as ever , to give the best possible bargain to the students, and he stressed the fact that the Administrat ion never pressures him for profi ts . "If there is ever any item over-priced." he said, " I 'd be very happy to know it. because we do not ever want to be undersold ."

Pricing Policy

No item in the s tore is priced higher than the manufac tu re r ' s sug-gested price, and many items, par-ticularly paper stock and clothing, a r e priced considerably lower. However at the moment , in con-t ras t to the s ta tement of the 1960 article, the only books the store sells at discount, with the exception perhaps of some few which won't sell well, a re hard-bound books other than text-books, which are al-ways a higher-profit item than text-books or paper-backs.

*New Address

The retail prices of text-books and paper-backs are very consist-ently 20 per cent higher than the m a n u f a c t u r e r ' s wholesale price. However 14 per cent of that is lost in operat ing expenses of the s tore . It should be emphasized that , al-though the store makes some prof-its on text-books, these are not high-profit i tems.

Interestingly, the i tems which draw the highest profi t , according to Mr. Wade, a re paper i tems, which are substant ial ly discounted. The Book Store buys paper directly f rom the mills, and so can afford to discount.

Used Book Resale

Used books are still bought at 60 per cent of original cost, and resold, according to Mr. Wade, at 75 per cent. However, this is only done if the book is to be used in a course the following semester . If there is any risk in buying a used book, the store will offer the pr ice quoted by used-book companies . These prices, however , are so low that s tudents a re usually ex t remely dissatisfied with the bargain, and students ' displays of disappoint-ment in turn, said Mr. Wade, tend to make the store very hesitant to mention the possibility. This ac-counts for complaints that the s tore will not buy back cer ta in used texts.

Two years ago there was a oro-

posal that the Alpha Phi Omega f r a t e r n i t y set up a used-book ex-change lor better bargains for the students. Mr . W a d e s answer to this was that they would be doing exactly what the Blue Key was do-ing twenty yea r s ago. ihe implica-tion being that it would be point-less. Fu r the r , he said, according to a survey done among 50 college book s tores three years ago, there were only eight stores which of-fered exchange ra tes as high as those offered by the Blue Key.

Won't Lower Prices

In conclusion, Mr. Wade offered severa l reasons for not lowering prices. Fo r one, the trouble and confusion involved, and the ensuing mis takes , would m a k e it imprac-tical. For another, the students wouldn't know the difference. For example , he said, if the price of a roll of Scotch Tape were lowered f rom 25 cents to 22 cents, students would still put a quar te r on the counter. Mr. Wade also noted that a significant drop in the store 's pr ices would increase competition with the local stores, thus raising the ire of local businessmen.

In short, it would seem that the complaints of high prices are some-what unjust if ied since the Blue Key offers the best possible prices to s tudents under the present circum-stances

KtJY —The Book Store, despite its rather cramped quarters, makes use of every available inch to display tei t -books and paper-

backs.

Graduation, Ineligibility Dim Track Outlook

By Graydon Blank

With the coming of spring and w a r m weather , the baseball season steals into the hear t s and minds of the sporsters around the world.

Hope is no exception, and Coach Siedentop has had his 1966 version of the Flying Dutch Baseball t eam at work sharpening up their techniques for over a week. The warm weather has allowed the t e a m to get out and sharpen their field-ing on good ole Mother Ea r th , in preparat ion for their first regular season g a m e on the 13th of April with Spring Arbor at Spring Arbor.

In preparat ion for this game and for their first MIAA game with Kalamazoo on the 16th of April, the Dutch will take a seven-game spring

De Vette Declines Offer to Be Calvin Coach

Russ De Vette, basketball coach of the Flying Dutchmen, declined the offer of Calvin College to be-come head basketball coach of the Knights.

De Vette would be taking over the position of Dr. Barney Steen, who stepped down at the close of this

COACH RUSS DE VETTE

season a f t e r serving 13 yea r s as the Calvin coach. De Vette was con-tacted about the position during the 1965-66 season.

Qualifications for the post accord-ing to Dr. Steen are that along with the coaching duties, the coach mus t teach in the phyical education depa r tmen t and hold a m a s t e r ' s de-to hold the views of the Christian gree. The coach is also expected Reformed Church.

t r ip to Tennessee. This will allow the t e a m some actual g a m e action before their season opener . The basebal l squad will open their spring trip with a single game at Nash-ville. facing David Lipscomb Col-lege, and will finish their t r ip at Goshen College. Goshen, Ind., be-fore re turning to their home grounds.

The Dutch should be title contend-ers this year , as they won the MIAA title two yea r s ago, and finished second to Olivet with an 8 win 4 loss record. Coach Siedentop will have 16 le t te rmen returning, in-cluding last yea r ' s first t e a m all-MIAA m e m b e r s Wayne Cotts and Don Kroodsma, and second t eam all-MIAA m e m b e r s Paul Te rps t r a , Tom Pelon and Clare Van Wieren.

Ethiopia Visit Possible Hope has been selected to send

one student to Addis Ababa , Ethi-opia, this s u m m e r , the Student Sen-ate announced this week.

This p rogram, sponsored by the Presby te r ian Church and the Ethi-opion Orthodox Church, will last f rom July 12 to August 23. The s tudent will par t ic ipa te in education and work pro jec ts under the guid-ance of St. Pau l ' s Theological School in Ethiopia.

A Hope f r e s h m a n will be selected by a Student Senate commit tee . Applications for this appointment will be m a d e avai lable before spr ing vacation, announced Joan Woederhoff. commi t tee cha i rman . All expenses will be paid and the Student Senate will help def ray costs by rais ing about $250.

Dancing for Missions A " M a d r a s Dance" fea tur ing the

new campus group, the Greenbr ia r s , will take place next Wednesday between 8 p .m. and 11:30 p.m. in Carnegie Gym.

Girls will be given late permission for the SCCC sponsored event, which will raise money for its "Food for M a d r a s " pro jec t . All proceeds will be used to buy food and supplies for the people of Ma-dras . India. The project is co-spon-sored by the RCA Board of World Missions and the SCCC missions commit tee .

According to Gary Gilmore, Hope cha i rman of the project , "every $100 earned will buy one badly-needed water pump and 3000 pounds of gra in for the people of M a d r a s . "

Terps t ra and Kroodsma led the hit-ters last season with Don Kroods-ma supplying the pitching strength of the ball club.

Captain Roger Kroodsma will lead the t eam to regain their title, but the Hornets of Kalamazoo, and the Britons of Albion will pose a big threat to the Dutch. Kalamazoo will especially be rugged, as they had a very young and inexperienced squad last season and have many of the p layers returning, along with picking up some veterans , who were off campus last spring.

Also helping the le t termen, will be several promising f reshmen , who should come through for the Dutch with the aid of Spring Trip exper-ience. A good season should be in store for Hope baseball followers.

The 10-member missions commit-tee consists of representa t ives of each Greek society as well as the f r e shman class, the sophomore class, student council, Trinity Fel-lowship and Young Life.

Admission to the dance is $.50.

W epfer Given Grant

Richard Wepfer . Hope senior f rom South Haven. Mich., received word today that he has been award-ed a National Science Foundation Gradua te Fellowship for the a-mount of $1800. A m a t h e m a t i c major Wepfer intends to do gradua te work in the field of probabilities and stat is t ics . He has applied for admission to Cornell University.

While at Hope he served for two yea r s as off icer of the German honors society. Delta Phi Alpha, acting as vice president last year and president this year . He is also a m e m b e r of the service f ra terni ty . Alpha Phi Omega. He h a s annually appeared on the Dean ' s List.

Romney Appoints Rider

Dr. Morette Rider, professor of music at Hope College, has been appointed by Governor Romney to the cha i rmansh ip of the State Council for the Arts Music Com-mittee and to a seat on the State Council for the Arts.

As head of the commit tee Dr. Rider will coordinate educators and professional music ians through-out the s ta te in adminis ter ing a state-wide p rogram of musical events and s emina r s beginning this

Hope t r acks te r s a r e out running again, and will be t ry ing to come up with a bet ter pe r fo rmance than last yea r ' s showing. Last year the squad under coach Brewer ' s able instruc-tion. finished with a 4-2 league re-cord and came in third in the con-ference behind the Knights of Cal-vin and the first place Britons of Albion.

Hope lost a lot of potential to graduat ion last yea r , especially in quar ter-miler Dave Lane, who set a new MIAA record in the 440 yard run. and also helped set a MIAA record in the mile relay, along uith Bill Hultgren, J im Pierpont and Mike 'Greek> Pal ia tsos . Coach Brewer ' s squad also was hurt by first s emes te r m a r k s , as many po-

. i^n t ia l men became ineligible. As a result of these two factors, the track t eam will bo m a d e up mostly ol f r e shmen and untried up-perc lassmen. with a scarci ty in let terwinners.

The Dutch a re especial ly weak in the hurdle events with the loss of Gary Holvick to ineligibility He was one of Coach Brewer ' s consistent winners last year , who will be mis-sed great ly this season. Ray Cooper will again be back at his spot on

the s tar t ing blocks gunning for sprint victories for Hope this year and Steve Rynen will again compile in the 880 for the Dutch. Pe rhaps the strongest part of the Hope at-tack will be in the field where Floyd Brady and Bruce Menning will high jump. Both a re back from last season 's t eam and Les Cole will be hack at the shot put along with Chris Buys.

A f r e shman will s trengthen the Hope field a t tack as Douglas Nich-ols will throw the javelin for the Dutch for the season. Doug is a sure bet to break the present Hope record as his ave rage last season was bet ter than 10 feet far ther than the present school record. Nichols will be a great improvement to Coach Brewer ' s squad along with many other valuable but inexper ienced f reshmen

The team will have to rely on the total s t rength to get wins this year . One advan tage that the Dutch will have this year is the f a d that the MIAA Field Day at the end of the year . May 21. will be held in Hol-land on the Dutch home grounds. With the f reshmen coming through, the team could have a very fine s( ason.
