"Duck" unexpectedly fails to resign from post Despite earlier suspicions based on editorialized anger and occa- sional displays of bad temper, Terry Graham, current editor of the Hope anchor has recently announced that she will not resign at the end of the fall semester. GRAHAM, ONCE described by the anchor as a near-senior from East Lansing, Michigan, with no previous practical newspaper ex- perience, updated her status by pointing out that she now has some experience, the practicality of it not withstanding, in anchor work. "I'm still a near-senior from East Lansing." she said, "and at this rate 1 will continue to be a near-senior for two or three years. I signed up for eighteen credit hours next semester, a load I'll bear for about a week and a half before I decide which classes I can carry." WHEN ASKED why she de- cided to refrain from resigning, Graham said, "In the course of a conversation with President Gor- don Van Wylen, I was informed that my last few issues of the anchor were too conservative. I cannot quit with that reputation. Although," she added, "he may have been joking." In an interview with Robert Baker, assistant editor ol the anchor, Baker said, "I think it's great that the old battle-ax has decided to stay on. A change in leadership at this point would be damaging to the anchor's exhibition of what a college paper should be. Changing editors now would be like changing courses in the middle of the stream. We may sink, but at least we'll still be going in the same direction." ACCORDING TO Suzanne Wat terson, associate editor of t h e anchor, "Graham was a blind fool to take on the editorship to begin with, but she's no longer blind (only foolish) to put herself through the grinder again. Be- sides, if she doesn't continue sloshing through each issue, I might be coerced into the position of blind fool. Her altruistic act has pre-saved my sanity." Mark Preston, photography editor, said that Graham's decision to stay put is "truly three- dimensional." "GRAHAM? What does she look like? She may be my roommate, so I'd better not say anything. No comment," was all that Business- Advertising manager Cindy Bere would venture. According to Graham, the clinching argument for retaining the editorship was a recent encounter with Chaplain Hille- gonds, who, when asked his opinion on the subject, picked up a baseball bat laying in the anchor office in Graves and said, "Yes. You will be editor." WHEN CONFRONTED with the comments made by her staff to this reporter, Graham pursed her lips, but her only comment was, "I'm considering firing Boom- Boom Baker for calling me an old battle-ax." Twelfth Street proposal tabled by City Council VOLUME 89 - ISSUE NO. 10 NOVEMBER 19, 1976 by Ericka Peterson From the indications the Hol- land Neighborhood Association (HNA) has had from the City Hall and City Council, it seems that the "Trucking down Twelfth Street" proposal itself has been tabled due to other pressing business matters and the HNA's influence. THE PROPOSAL has been sent back to committee for further study, but the City Council is still divided on the issue, some members preferring the original proposal, while others would like to see it tabled permanently. An alternative to making a new proposal would be to rewrite the original trucking ordinance so that the Holland Police Department can enforce it more easily. The present ordinance does not stand up well in court, thus there is a fair amount of violation presently underway. THE HNA is hopeful that the City Council will decide in favor of this alternative. The HNA will soon be broad- casting a program on WHTS and Cable TV concerned with the heritage of the Holland community on a monthly basis, and publishing a newsletter on a quarterly basis. They are seeking community support; people in possession of any ideas for the betterment of the Holland community can write to the HNA, Box 206, Holland, MI 49423 and receive the quarterly newsletter free for the asking. Fewer women in Hope faculty roles (>¥7 Till \/on*\v«ln a by Jill Vanderlaan Women are able to success- fully compete in the mascu- line occupational world to the extent that they can bring "Masculine"personality qual- ities to the role: objectivity and not subjectivity, assertion and not passivity, achieve- ment motivation and not fears of success or commit- ment or ambition and drive. By temperament and sociali- zation, relatively few women have these personality quali- ties. Success can be achieved by a greater number women in less masculine occupations-- those that professionalize in- terpersonal communication, subjectivity, empathy and nurturance--not simply be- cause these are traditionally feminine fields but because the personality qualities wo- men bring to these fields aid them in achieving. (Judith M. Bardwick, Psychology of Women) The field of teaching is one in which "interpersonal communica- tion, subjectivity, empathy and nurturance" are valuable personal- ity qualities. Granted, it is always refreshing to find male professors who find their job more precious to them than simply as an instrument by which they could make money. IT HAS been drilled into men, and speaking now only of men that the anchor personally discuss- ed this with, that deviance from this to satisfy personal desires or to aid those outside of the family circle is considered a deliberate attempt to escape from the male role as financial supporter. Thus, it takes a special sort of male to teach well. The one who can rid himself of these stereo- typed roles set by society and history, and honestly believes that how he can best teach his students is more important than if this scholarly paper or that chairman- ship will further his status, he is the truest teacher. BIOLOGICALLY, a woman is perhaps better equipped to be a teacher than a man. That is, her instinct and social upbringing tend to dictate to her that she will eventually be the teacher of her children; thus, she prepares for this role in a way that enables her to be a good teacher of students. It is strange, then, that most female teachers are teaching at the elementary level. The college level is rather lacking female professors. FIRST, a few facts. According to research conducted by Jantina Holleman of t h e music department on the number of men versus women on the faculty at Hope, using the Milestone as a reference, the percentage of women has decreased from 29% in 1946 to 13% in 1976. Today women hold positions in such fields as English, music, and physical education (full time positions). There is only one woman in a number of fields, mainly in the sciences and languages. Math, physics, history, religion, econ- omics, political science, philo- sophy, art and sociology are totally male-dominated. All chairman- ships are held by men, with the exception of the Interdisciplinary Studies Department, which is chaired by Dr. Joan Mueller, (Professor of English). HOWEVER, Mueller will no longer be chairing that depart- ment according to my sources. This leaves no woman in an administrative position among the individual departments. National statistics reveal that women getting degrees other than the doctorate are not scarce. There are more women than men achieving degree status in educa- tional psychology, art history, music, dance and foreign lan- guages. Men and women are equal in business and economics. Men outnumber women 2 to 1 in mathematics, history and micro- biology; 3 to 1 in biology; and 5 to 1 in political science and accounting. MEN SLIGHTLY outnumber women in psychology and vastly outnumber them in theology. At almost every level, men outnum- ber women when a doctorate degree is involved. However, statistics up to 1974 show a decrease in the number of men receiving degrees (93%) and an increase for women (300%). This covers every level of education, including the doctorate. (Source of statistics is a study by the Health, Education, and Wel- fare Department). WHY ARE there so few women teaching at Hope? Provost David Marker cited many causes. "We have a pretty good record here (of hiring women)," he said; however, he pointed to the number of women that are hired and then leave their positions to take part-time work, go to graduate school, or resign. Marker cited the new female educators that have been recently hired, such as Dr. Benem in the Geology Department. "I CAN pull out records of letters to deans and chairmen," explained Marker, that demon- strate the administrative effort to place women in college positions. Not all efforts work, however," claimed Marker. "Men did those kinds of things and women didn't." Thus, when the general practice of society instructs that men take the college-level teaching jobs and the women do whatever, it is difficult to get women to apply for the positions. "Certainly the biology of women is not inconse- quential," suggested Marker. "It makes certain kinds of demands." Judith Bardwick also finds this true: She is not a man and she is still vulnerable to being rejec- ted. Fear that she may lose love or guilt that she may fail her family will coexist with ambitions to succeed and fears of failing. Jantina Holleman, associate professor of music, echoed these fears. "I feel sorry for the younger women. They ought to be concerned. But there is no push for career." Although, cited Holleman, there used to be more of a push to get women into the field. "PERHAPS WOMEN are less willing to pay the price of personal sacrifice of marriage and family satisfactions which an earlier generation took for granted; they are less patient, perhaps, with the loneliness and isolations, relative lack of professional recognition and rewards which women in Academia have sometimes suffer- ed. "At Hope College, several men were helped financially to pursue work on doctorates, but I do not know that any women were." HAS HOPE discouraged the admittance of women into the teaching profession? At one time, claimed Holleman, women held positions of considerable power. "They were much in evidence." President Irwin Lubbers was instrumental in enforcing the practice of hiring women. When there were professional confer- ences, recalled Holleman, "he sent women, too." The position of Dean of Women was highly respected and powerful. SINCE THEN, men have been replacing women in roles that the women previously held. "We are far down from what we should be, I think," confided Dr. John Hollenbach, professor of English. He believes women have been cited as trouble makers by the administration. "They are believed to be too emotional and not logical." HOWEVER, at the present, said Hollenbach, it will be difficult to hire women into the college, with jobs tight and competition for them stiff. Competition leads to a "move into the university syndrome," claims Hollenbach. Dr. Elizabeth Reedy, preceptor in English, remarked that "good teaching is what is important. The college has been getting ambitious. Why should teachers have to have that kind of aspiration (for more (continued on page 3} BERMUDA TRIANGLE BERMUDA TRIANGLE wiH be performing both Friday and Saturday nights in the Pit Show time is from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. each evening.

Fewer women in Hope faculty roles (>¥7 Till \/on*\v«ln a by Jill Vanderlaan

Women are able to success-fully compete in the mascu-line occupational world to the extent that they can bring "Masculine"personality qual-ities to the role: objectivity and not subjectivity, assertion and not passivity, achieve-ment motivation and not

fears of success or commit-ment or ambition and drive. By temperament and sociali-zation, relatively few women have these personality quali-ties.

Success can be achieved by a greater number women in less masculine occupations--those that professionalize in-terpersonal communication, subjectivity, empathy and nurturance--not simply be-cause these are traditionally feminine fields but because the personality qualities wo-men bring to these fields aid them in achieving.

The field of teaching is one in which " in te rpersona l communica-t i o n , s u b j e c t i v i t y , e m p a t h y and nu r tu r ance" a re valuable personal-ity qual i t ies . Gran ted , it is a lways r e f r e sh ing to find male professors who find the i r job more precious to them than simply as an in s t rumen t by which t h e y could make money.

Thus , it t akes a special sor t of male to teach well. T h e one who can rid himself of t h e s e stereo-t y p e d r o l e s s e t by s o c i e t y a n d his tory, and honest ly bel ieves tha t how he can bes t teach his s t uden t s is m o r e i m p o r t a n t t h a n if t h i s scholarly pape r or t h a t chairman-ship will f u r t h e r his s ta tus , he is t h e t r u e s t t eacher .

It is s t r ange , then, t ha t most female t eache r s are teaching at t he e l emen ta ry level. The college leve l is r a t h e r l a c k i n g f e m a l e professors .

National s ta t i s t ics reveal tha t women ge t t i ng deg rees o ther than t h e d o c t o r a t e a r e no t s c a r c e . The re a re more women than men achieving d e g r e e s t a t u s in educa-t i o n a l p s y c h o l o g y , a r t h i s t o r y , m u s i c , d a n c e a n d f o r e i g n lan-guages .

ou tnumber t hem in theology. A t almost every level, men outnum-b e r w o m e n w h e n a d o c t o r a t e degree is involved.

However , s ta t is t ics up to 1974 show a dec rease in the number of men receiving deg rees (93%) and an i n c r e a s e fo r w o m e n ( 3 0 0 % ) .

fears of failing.

J a n t i n a H o l l e m a n , a s s o c i a t e professor of music, echoed t h e s e fears . "I feel so r ry for t h e younge r w o m e n . T h e y o u g h t t o b e concerned. But t h e r e is no push for

Through observa t ion , I ' v e n o t i c e d o n c e a g a i n t h e eas iness of e x t r e m e posit ions on this and o the r ethical ques t ions t h a t w e a s h u m a n s t a k e . M o s t of ten we, mean ing you (plural) and me, j udge i r responsibly .

A wel l k n o w n s t a t e m e n t b y J e s u s is r e c o r d e d in M a t t h e w 7:1,2. J e s u s says, "Do not judge , or you too, will be judged . For in t h e same way you judge o thers , you will be judged , and with the s a m e m e a s u r e you u s e , i t wil l b e measured to you."

I t s e e m s f a i r l y o b v i o u s t h a t when he tells t hose f i r s t fol lowers this essence of Chr is t ian behavior , he is s p e a k i n g a b o u t t h e i r j udgmen t of people.

J e s u s , a s o t h e r p r o p h e t s h a d before said, des i res God's people to examine the i r own devour ing

selves. I t is ve ry easy for us to judge a person and place him into the pit of hell, y e t if w e only had l ooked a t o u r o w n m o t i v e s f o r judging we most p robably would be s t and ing in t h e f lames wi th t h e one whom we judged .

This is a p r i m a r y p a r t of t h e message , bu t as I cont inued to r e a d f u r t h e r I d i s c o v e r e d t h a t J e s u s had some th ing else to say about j u d g m e n t .

J e s u s examines t h e way we a r e so ap t to see t h e speck in someone else 's eye ye t negl igent in not icing the plank coming out of our own. He then declares , "You hypocr i tes , f i rs t t a k e t h e plank ou t of your own eye, and t h e n you will see

clearly to r e m o v e t h e speck f rom your b ro the r ' s eye . "

I don' t bel ieve J e s u s t h r o w s out t h e n o t i o n of j u d g m e n t , b u t emphas izes our need to m a k e s u r e we a r e very a w a r e of our own sin before even a t t e m p t i n g to judge a n o t h e r ' s . T h e j u d g m e n t w h i c h God's law brings, falls upon us all.

When we d isobey t h a t law our eyes fill wi th logs and planks.

Soon we can see no longer for w e h a v e b e e n b l i n d e d b y t h e fores ts and lumber y a r d s accumu-lated in our eyes . By God's action in Chris t J e s u s ' comple ted obedi-e n c e t o t h e l a w , d e a t h and resur rec t ion , w e a r e given new sight t h r o u g h his eyes .

He b e c o m e s a c o m b i n a t i o n lumber j ack and op tome t r i s t . Cut-t ing a w a y the t r e e s and doctor ing our eyes, he gives us t h e chance to see again.

R e c o g n i z i n g o t h e r s s in is no t wrong. I t is t h e me thod in which w e r e s p o n d t o i t t h a t m a y be wrong. If our e y e s a r e cleansed, then we may begin approach ing someone o r some society in need of having c leansed e y e s as well.

J u d g m e n t , wi th love and care, becomes cons t ruc t ive r a t h e r than d e s t r u c t i v e . J u d g m e n t c a n b e r e s p o n s i b l e a n d b r i n g h e a l i n g r a t h e r t h a n t h e usual disint igra-tion.

Catch a Rising Star on Tour

Shortest Lambert review ever! by Jim Lam pert

"Catch a Rising Star",- a t r ave l ing night club act , came to Hope this pas t weekend in hopes of making some points wi th college s t u d e n t s w h o w o u l d a p p r e c i a t e the i r s tyle of humor and song.

I doubt t h e r e is one person who can deny t h a t points w e r e made, in double or t r ip le f igures . Given t h e f a c t t h a t p o k e s a t t h e W h i t e House, J i m m y Ca r t e r , college life in general and male-female rela-tions a re in vogue, t h e p e r f o r m e r s went one s t ep f u r t h e r in establish-ing the idea t h a t anyone can be a hit when they give it e v e r y t h i n g

T H E W H O L E I D E A b e h i n d "Catch" is jus t t h a t : anyone can become famous . In New York City w h e r e t h e o r i g i n a l "Catch" t hea t e r is located, it is possible for anyone to ge t up on s t a g e on any g i v e n M o n d a y n i g h t a n d s i n g , d a n c e or t a l k t o t h e i r h e a r t ' s delight. When t h e y ge t t h rough they may be s igned on as a r egu la r or have t h e oppor tun i ty to sign with agen t s in t h e City.

Secre tar ia l .positions, tradit ion-a l ly he ld by w o m e n , a r e no exception a t Hope. Virtually every sec re t a ry at Hope is a woman.

S u c h r o l e s , a l t h o u g h he ld by w o m e n , a r e commanded by men . For example:

Women comprise 61.3 per-cent of the total professional work force in college and uni-versity libraries and consti-tute the majority in every other position except direc-tor, associate director, and assistant director. In every category and at every level men earn more than women. In gross terms, the percen-tage difference is 3.2 at the entry level, rising to 23.3 at the directors level. ("College and Research Libraries News" No. 169; October 1976)

At Hope, Hollenbach believes, t h o s e t h a t a r e r a t e d e q u a l l y receive equal pay. Al though, he s ta ted , "women ' s promot ions have

not m o v e d a s r a p i d l y a s t h e y might have had ." Reedy agreed tha t women may not have been t r e a t e d fair ly. "As far as pay goes, I bel ieve I a m paid equi tably . But no t o t h e r s . " N a t i o n a l s t a t i s t i c s s h o w t h a t m e n r e c e i v e a b o u t $2,000 more pe r year for the i r job than women .

Girls in college are also greatly concerned with femi-nine goals and with the real-ization that their identity will be closely tied to the man they marry. But they are con-cerned in addition with the conflict between their indivi-dual aspirations and the cul-ture's definition of feminity. (Bardwick)

Change will only occur with the opening up of more positions that treat women as their male counterpart's equal and who consciously try to fairly replace the retiring faculty with quality people -of either sex.

Falling Squirrels & High Squibs

Mary Jo C o u g h e n o u r

by Mi les M u l l s A sweet little co-ed thrilled my hear t and

my tone-deaf ears last weekend as she stood majestically upon the Genevean roof of D i m n e n t Chape l a n d sang t h e old Scottish ballad of Mary Hamil ton to sever-al sinister black squirrels a n d me .

O n e verse quo t ed a par t icu lar ly sad la-m e n t on the pa r t of the provost 's wife. Since the wind and snow car r ied away most of the words, I was at a loss to under-s t and why the fu r ry black aud ience rolled over a n d fa in ted with tears in their eyes. A couple even fell off of the C h a p e l .

I tried to approach this diminutive co-ed a f te r her descent , bu t she seemed to fear that I wanted a date . She threw her guitar at m e as she vanished in to the bl izzard, so the discourse was cut off somewhat ab rup t ly .

Now, I have always been u n d e r t h e odd impression tha t 'Provost ' was o u r Dr . Marker ' s first n a m e . I was somewha t con-cerned , since 1 h a d not h e a r d the lyrics distinctly, tha t Dr . Marke r somehow h a d m a n a g e d wha t the legendary Van Raa l t e , f o u n d e r of Hope , fai led to accompl ish , a l though we must accredit him with estab-lishing hope where there was none previ-ously: he s l ipped f r o m the bonds of a Scottish heritage and four or five centuries to r e a p p e a r provocatively in H o l l a n d .

Hav ing always cons idered my H e a d Resident a very smar t m a n (few acade-mians are acu te e n o u g h to make m o n e y out of living in a do rm) , I consul ted h im. He said tha t 'provost' is a title, and to look it u p .

"Look it up" is an insinuating expression. T h e last t ime it was d i rec ted a t m e it came f rom an eighth grade science teacher ( female) a f t e r I asked her wha t " n y m p h o -manic" mean t . I was mildly destroyed (my knees gave out ) as I sat in the L e a r n i n g Cen te r wi th the def in i t ion in f r on t of m e .

My conservative American Heri tage Dic-t ionary def ines 'provost ' in the fol lowing

i l luminat ive m a n n e r : " P R O - V O S T (pro ' vost . . . ) n . Abbr. P R O V . 1. T h e chief magistrate of certain Scottish cities. 2. T h e chief officer of some colleges. 3. T h e highest official in cer ta in ca thed ra l s or col legiate c h u r c h e s . . . f r o m La t in praepos i tus , "(one) p l aced be fo re (o thers ) , " . . . to p lace before or over . . . (see Apo- o m A p p e n d i x * ) . "

T h e business of a provost r u n n i n g cer-t a in Scottish cities fits in wi th the Flying Dame ' s (no singer 's got any business be ing on top of a chape l ) rend i t ion of Mary Hami l t on ' s t r ip to Glasgow, Scot land to lose her h e a d .

T h e th ing I really m e a n t to men t ion w h e n I set ou t was t h a t one c a n never find t h e m a n . W e wish this was a Scottish city, b u t it's no t , a n d if he's our chief off icer , I-feel sure t h a t Dr . V a n Wylen should have been i n f o r m e d some f o u r years ago.

D i m n e n t lends t h e c a m p u s a n air of pomposity befit t ing a cathedral , al though we ' re told it is no t , while u p o n closer in-spect ion a n d some scrut iny it mus t be ad-m i t t e d t h a t wha t p rops the t h i n g u p may be buttresses.

If our provost is to be High Squib in our col legiate c h u r c h , t h e C h a p l a i n a n d his Pe te r would be well advised to qui t do ing all the work. But ou r provost is not in any of these places .

Whoeve r set the whole business u p did such a bl is ter ing good job of p l ac ing the m a n be fo re a n d over us, t ha t e i ther he's a l r eady wai t ing fo r us to mee t h i m in St. Louie, or he was with the It tha t discovered l ife on Mars .

T r u e exc i t ement would be discovering t ha t our provost wrinkled t ime a n d scooted a r o u n d t h e d rea ry business of living in the cen tu ry you were b o m into a n d has, in f ac t , sk ipped off to Glasgow to he lp h a n g M a r y H a m i l t o n . If t h a t is the case, it is no w o n d e r a t all t h a t t h e weeping squirrels t u m b l e d off t h e C h a p e l . I qu i t e sympa-thize .

Coach DeVette pleased

Basketball begins season early By Doug irons

"I'm pleased with our progress," b a s k e t b a l l Coach R u s s D e V e t t e said of his Hope team recently. "We're pushing quite hard to get r e a d y , s ince w e ' r e p lay ing t e n days earlier than we normally do. Conditioning is still important at this stage, but we had to go faster wi th t h e l e a r n i n g of p lay ing together ."

" W E ' R E P L A Y I N G so much earlier because the NCAA moved back the session to the weekend of November 26, ra ther than Decem-ber 1, as in the past," he said. "In addition to the exhibition game

(with Egypt, November 22) we're p lay ing on t h e e a r l i e s t poss ib le regular day, more than half a week ahead of what we're used to."

The team this year consists of two seniors, Dwayne Boyce and Jeff Waterstone; six juniors, Jim H o l w e r d a , C h r i s P e t e r s o n , Ed Ryan , W a y n e V a n D y k e , J ack Hunt and Wes Vandestreak; and four sophomores, Scott Peterson, Bruce Vandershaaf, Bruce Hilton and Ken Potter . "We'll be using a different offense this year because of the different people we have playing," DeVette continued.

Harriers finish season By Steven Wissink

The Hope Cross Country team finished another brilliant season S a t u r d a y as t h e y t r a v e l e d to C leve l and , Ohio, to run in t h e N .C .A .A . divis ion III race . The team ran a good race over the snow and mud c o v e r e d course , f i n i sh ing 25th in a field of 41 teams.

J U N I O R G e o r g e Moger , wi th family and friends flying out from C o n n e c t i c u t to w a t c h , ran his s t r o n g e s t r ace of t h e season , finishing 59th in a field of over 350 runners . Lou Hoekstra was the second Dutchman across the line in 82nd, thus putt ing the finishing

touches on another great season for him.

Mark Ongley also ran well, as he finished next in 178th place. Kim Spalsbury, running his last race in a Hope cross country uniform, was close behind in 219th . Nevin Webster rounded out the top five in 262nd, with John Kostishak a few str ides behind him in 275th.

THE ONLY disappointment of the race was that freshman Dick N o r t h u i s , who had run so brilliantly for Hope this year, had to drop out on account of a bad case of the flu. However, as in past races, the rest of the Hope runners were able to pick up the slack that was lost when Northuis was forced to ret ire .

a d v a n t a g e of Chr i s ' s and J e f f ' s individual abilities. It makes good sense to use their ball-handling and dribbling abilities," he noted.

"In general, it's the consensus opinion of all the coaches that the league will be, from top to bottom, t h e bes t i t ' s e v e r been : in competition and even distribution of t a l e n t . W h o e v e r it is, t h e bo t tom t e a m may be t h e b e s t b o t t o m t e a m t h e l e a g u e ' s e v e r had."

"JUST ON point of experience we should i m p r o v e th i s y e a r , " DeVette observed. "The juniors have had th ree years of playing a lot . D w a y n e ' s s t a r t e d for t h r e e years and played a lot, s tar t ing often, his first year, Wayne played a lot l as t y e a r and S t o n e ( W a t e r s t o n e ) was a lmos t like a regular for us last year."

"Egypt has a good-sized team: no g i a n t s , but a 6 '8" (204 centimeters) player, and a couple of 6' 6" guys. They're a big, s t rong team, s t rength being the keynote of most international teams."

AN EARLY, EARLY SEASON

" T H E I R A V E R A G E a g e is a little older than us (about 24), but we don ' t know w h a t t h a t will mean: they may get s tar ted later than we do, so we may be even with them on experience."

"Par t of the appeal of the game is what does a team from another continent 'look' like? How do they play? We (the U.S.) invented the game, and thought until recently we had a 'lock' on it, but now we see these international teams, and we ' re asking 'how did they get so

good w i t h o u t our e x p e r i e n c e ? ' Pa r t of the mystique of this game will be how they compare to us."

TICKETS FOR the game, which go towards the expenses guaran-teed to the Egyptian team, and Hope's proposed trip to England and the Netherlands in May, will be $2 for general admission and $3 for reserved seats. General admis-sion t i c k e t s will be on sale in P h e l p s d u r i n g meal h o u r s , and reserved tickets are available at Superior Sports Store.
