Dr. Wichers stated that of the 640 students who enrolled in the college last September, J45 ol the boys have ali^ady left for service in the Armed Forces. He also spoke of the problems con fronting the small Liberal Arts colleges in this time of crisis, am appealed to the group to keep these smaller institutions operat- ing. The officers elected for the en- suing year were: President, Rev. Norman Vander Hurt; vice presi dent, Mrs. Franklin J. Hinkamp; secretary, Virginia C. Freligh; treasurer, Rev. William Maat. Refreshments were served dur- ing the social time which followed the business session. Y Poll Results Enlightening Approximately one-sixth of the student body, representing all four classes and a majority of the vari- our departments, participated in the American Opinion Poll spon- sored last week by the joint Y or- ganizations. Questions asked dealt with various present and post-war problems. In response to questions relative to giving assistance to our allies through the shipping of food now and an extension of the Lend- Lease program after the war, about 75 per cent of the partici- pating students voted positively. No Reparations A majority of students felt that the defeated nations should not be forced to pay reparations; while an overwhelming majority are of the opinion that Axis representa- tives should be included in post- war conferences. The idea of a post-war international police force was not a popular one, but opinion was quite definite on the responsi- bility of the United States in help- ing less favored peoples develop a higher standard of living. The concensus of opinion was quite strongly to the effect that the colored races must have equal opportunities in order to avoid a third world war; and a fair num- )er, but by no means a majority, felt that in the event of another war, Russia would ally herself with the colored peoples of Asia against the United States and Great Britain. Repeal Not Advisable A majority voiced the opinion that it would not be wise to repeal the Oriental Exclusion Act in order to help strengthen the confidence of Asia in democracy. An over- whelming number felt it impera- tive that the United States take steps now to end discrimination against negroes in the United States. As to the question of the exten- sion of the Beveridge Plan to the people of India and the British colonies, apparently a good many students were unfamiliar with the Third Annual Sunrise Service Will Be 6:30 Easter Morning at- Newly Elected Board Assumes WAL Duties The 1942-43 WAL board ended its current year of activity last Thursday, April 15, by entertain- ing the newly elected board at a tea. After Edith Klaaren had re- ported on plans for May Day, Hope's big springtime event, all WAL business was handed over to the new board. Vivian Tardiff, swinging the gavel for the first time, conducted the remainder of the business meeting. Retiring officers are: Barbara Folensbee, president; Louise Beck- er, vice president; Dorothy Wich- ers, secretary; and Mildred Tim- mer, treasurer. Succeeding these girls are: Vivian Tardiff, as new prexy; Norma Lemmer, the vice president; Rose Winstrom, in charge of the minutes; and Joan De Young, as keeper of the money bags. Glee Club Concert Will Be May 20th The Girls' Glee Club, under the direction of Mrs. Snow, undaunted by war difficulties, will present its annual concert on May 20.

The guests inspect- ed the dorm rooms as an added feature. . Dorm girls rushed to the base- ment (air raid shelter) last details of this plan and had no opinion on it. Of those who did express a view, however, a good number felt it to be a wise thing. The results of this poll have been sent in to the National Inter- collegiate Christian Council where it will be included with the tabu- lations from similar polls held in colleges throughout the country and turned over to the National Opinion Poll for inclusion in a na- tional tabulation which is to be released to the press of the nation and to officials of the United States government.

Several dorm giris are leaving a few days early for their Easter vacation, in spite of the fact that they will not be excused from their classes. (So says Doctor Wichers.) The Ail-Out War Effort hasn't put a cramp in the style of the majority of our Hope-ites. As their patriotic duty, quite a few men- tionables are going in for morale- lifting on the home front. Take the case of Bobby Roozen, Al Borgman vs. Phyd van Duxer and Jim Burger: the poor Roozen fam- ily is. going to need a morale-up- lifter, itaelf, when they finish their Milwaukee visit.

PRINTED AT OLD NEWS PRINTERY

Easter, 1943 In this year of Our Lord Nineteen Hundred and Forty

three, Easter falls on its latest possible date: April 25. The timing of Easter is a very confusing system, mixing astron-

omy and ecclesiasticism. This method of determining the

date was worked out by the early Christian Church at the

Council of Nicea in 325 A.D., and has never been changed

The last time Easter fell on this date was in 1886. Presi-

dent Cleveland was serving his first term. In this perkx there was much talk about political and economic reforms Civil service had been inaugurated under the Pendleton Act a few years before. Grant attempted to run for a third term and was defeated. America was just fully recovering from the bad effects of the Civil War, having just elected their first Democratic president since 1856. We were beginning

our surge into world affairs. This was our America the last

time Easter fell on April 25.

Today the face of America has been scarred with many

a terrible plight. To the American youth frustration and

misunderstanding have replaced the security that was once theirs. And we ask why and wonder ^na t the outcome will be.

What would have been the outcome if our Lord and Savior

had faltered on the road to Golgatha? If He had not died for

our sins and transgressions? Did He ever doubt the plan

of God? Then why should we?

In the year between Easters that have past many events have occurred that have had a direct bearing on our life.

This period of history is one that is comparable to any tha have preceded.

Scan back over the ages and try to find an era of such importance. Go back to Egypt, Babylonia, Phoenicia, Greece,

Rome, France, Briton, Prussia, or Scandinavia. Go back anywhere in history and nothing can impress you as much as being as important as what our job is today. We are in a changing world. This is a most exciting time. Our deeds will be recorded with those of Alexander, the Caesars, Wil-liam, Charlemagne, Ivan, Khan, Washington, Wellington, Lincoln, Bismarck and many others. Those boys don't have anything on us. Our chances are greater, our cause is more important, and our success is more sure. This is the secom Renaissance and we are the creators of a new life.

That is the reason that this Easter is so important. The death and resurrection of our God is the principle that we are fighting for. Everything that is good is represented by the Easter season. Let us reconsecrate our lives to God this year so they will have not been spent in vain.

once Not too bright, but not exactly a

dunce . . .

Sort of an unconscious lookin' guy,

iad a droop chin and an anxious eye.

And more trouble than Hitler,

t was that way all along.

If anything went wrong.

It was with his machine or his car

Or his romance. There was noth-ing in particular

That you could really blame.

But it always happened the same.

Poor old Cornie got the tough breaks.

Well, he had what it takes.

You gotta give him credit for trying.

He kept on going, and no crying.

Either. Until he met Mabel.

Mabel was blond, naturally, and Capable

Of darn near anything.

But you couldn't tell him a thing. We tried.

But he just sighed

And got that soulful look on his funny mugg . . .

Mabel was a gold-digger, and she dug.

He never took a tumble,

Just got more and more humble.

And finally one night he gathered up all his intestin-

A1 fortitude and popped the ques-tion.

He really loved that dame,

And it never occurred to him she might be playing a game.

Well, you know how it would go.

She didn't even bother to say no.

She just said, "Oh, Cornie, go hire a hall,"

Not even mad, and walked away.

That was all.

Cornie wasn't very bright.

He went home that night

And thought the situation over.

And — blind as a bat or a lover —

He didn't get it. He figured he was pretty dumb

About women, and the way it is with some

Like Mabel, they never say things right out straight.

And if she was going to give him the gate,

She'd have done it before. The poor old duck

Actually figured she'd brought him good luck!

Cornie's mind was literal. He went out next day and hired a

hall, And a preacher and a caterer and

a German band. The situation got out of hand When he called for Mabel at seven-

thirty. She gave him a look that was more

than dirty And a good-sized piece of her not

extensive mind. ' About eight or so ber ^ears began

to grind. And she ended up with, uGo jump

in the lake!" And slammed the door. C omie

thought of the cake And the portly preached and the

German band. And he mopped his brow with a

trembling hand. But he. went to the hall and told

the boys The party was on him, and he

wanted a lot of noise. Then he sat off by himself and

thought awhile. The lake-front was a good mile Or so, and he kind of hated the

subway ride. He wasnt very bright, but he had

some pride. And his luck was getting pretty

hard to take. So about midnight he went out and

jumped in the lake.

Well, that's the way it is with life. Disappointment and grief -and

strife, | And nothing ever comes the way

you'want it to. But when you think it's kind of

tough on you. Just remember, it's the same thing For everybody. One more t h i n g . . . As for Cornie . . . don't

about him. He could swim.

"POEM" (Free Verse)

"Life in the Army" or

"Born Thirty Years Too Soon"

The food is good if you can eat it. The beds have good enter-springs. But all they do is enter your back. The pay is good, if you get it. The air is swell, what there is of it.

the Navy is the only service that is worth-

The officers are swell, if you can keep out of their way;

The weather is swell, when it doesn't rain;

The shows are good, if you haven't seen them;

The women are swell, if you don't have to look at them;

The hiking is fine, if you like wet shoes.

K.P. is fun, if you like long hours, Your time is your own, if Uncle

t Sam doesn't put you to work. The fellows are swell, for high-

grade morons; The "sargent" is swell, when he

doesn't drool. The service club is nice, if you can

find it.

This description of army life

comes fribm James Wierenga, who

is at Fort Francis E. Warren, Wy-

oming. - .

From Dale Fris — Army Air Corps — San Antonio, Texas:

"Not a darn thing to do here,

just march a little and lie around,

do^ K.Pn do guard duty, march

some more, see training movies,

listen to lectures, go to classes,

code, airplane identification, etc^

march again day after day! Shine

shoes, make bunks, clean the bar-

racks, rake the lawn, and pick up

rocks (there's more rocks in San

Antonio than any other place in

the world.")

Ted Wisner is an apprentice ath-

letic chief petty officer at G r e a t

Lakes Naval Training Station. He

is in charge of all the athletics of

his company. This new duty re-

leases him from all K.P. duty,

which Ted appreciates very much.

He thinks branch of while. •

Clarie Van Liere is in the Quar-termaster's Department as a clerk-typist at Fort Warren, Wyoming. Paul Dame is also in that depart-ment, and both of them are quite satisfied there.

Chuck Martindale, Bob Barkema, and Tony Kempker, stationed in California, are having fun in Holly-wood and Los Angeles on week-end leaves, and they think it is pretty swell. Chuck Knooihuizen is at the pre-flight school at Bowling Green, Ky. Don Williams is now studying at Jamestown College, South Dakota, and he finds it to be pretty swell. Len Pspe is in the hospitsl at Traux Field, Madison, Wis. He had an operation on his knee.

Alan Van Huis has just been accepted to Officers' Candidate School at Kessler Field, Miss. Wen-dell Anderson, who has been sta-tioned at Camp Butner, North Car-olina, is being sent to Meterology School at Columbia University.

Quite a few of the E.R.C. con-tingent from Hope are in St. Pet-ersburg, Florida, "roughing it," as they call it. No electricity, no run-ning water, dirt and grime all the time, but they are becoming used to it. Howie Koop, Dick Pfieffer, and John Kleis, who live in the same tent, write to say that the three of them hold a prayer meet-ing every night to hasten the date for their departure to civilization.

Seymour Padnos writes that he is very glad that he never spent any money to take a trip to see what Florida was like.

Hank Fylstra, writing from Cap^ ital University in Cohimbus, Ohio, says, "I'm getting the ANCHOR now, and boy, is that ever swell! Gosh, it's fun to read all the college news. The first copy was a pleas-ant surprise." Hank also adds that he is getting 95's in Physics and English. (Please note. Miss Oggel and Mr. Kleis.)

Q. Doei an album filled with Stamps aulomatically be> come a Bond thai wiU ma-ture in 10 yean? A. No. It muat be ex-

changed for a Bond, and it will bear no in-terest until It is so exclianged.

Q. Can payment of a War Sav-ings Bond be made to the receiver or trustee in bank* ruptcy of the estate of a registered owner? A. Yes, when bankraptey

or insolvency has been adjudicated and re-quest for payment baa been duly executed. •

Q. Can I authorise my em-ployer to set aside portions of my salary each pay day until enough is accumulated to buy a Wsr Savings Bond?

Bt Qft Ci ssfcstt. A. Yes, If your employer

baa installed a Pay-Roll Savings Plan. More than 24 million wago and salary earners are aaving their money tbia way.

Q. Can I invest a tamp sum in 4 Wsr Bonds snd receive

from the investment a return in the nature of an snnuity? A. No. The nurcbase of

each War Savinga Bond ia a aenarate transae* tion. E a c b B o n d i a dated aa of the first of the month in which payment for it ia re-ceived by an authorised iaauing agent, and ma-tures exactly 10 years from that date.

Remember—the longer yon keep War Bonds, up to 10 year*, the'mora valuable they become.

The Kibitzer . . • • by Bud Koranda

I ha?® read many Ictteri in the paat few weeka, from the boys in the different tenriees. They all seem to bring: out this point, "THE IM-

PORTANCE OF BEING IN GOOD PHYSICAL SHAPE/* Many of

us are due for a rude awakening if we don't heed their words. The

only way I know of, to get in shape and enjoy it at the same time, is

to enter in the athletics of this campus. First there are Jack's gym

classes, then there are the baseball and track teams. By entering into

the May day track meet and the Anchor softball league you are build-

ing up your own bodies, and learning to give and take. No matter if

you win or lose, you're helping yourself. If we will all enter into these

things, we won't mind the exercises the different services give quite

as much. Some of the boys in the army have written and told us, how

much the marching drills have helped them. So remember and start entering into these things. It's easier to learn a few things here and be able to pick up the rest af ter you get in the army, than it is to peel potatoes for not being able to digest it all at once.

I am sure that the track aspirants here at Hope will be glad to know that work is being done to improve and lengthen our oval. Perhaps some of you can cut down some old records, when the improvements are finished.

A passing thought — You can't expect the girls to cheer our softball league on, if we don't do the same for them on Thursday nights. They »e«m to have some real good rookies this year in Elaine Mensinger, Mary Lou Hemmes and Eleanor Mulder.

Congratulations — to Jack Schouten in baseball practice. Most of UH are lucky to hit the ball; he tells us where he is going to hit it and how it will bounce. Sure enough he's right.

Since baseball officially opened Monday, with the president tossing in the first ball a t Washington, DX3., providing he wasn't having a conference with Churchill in Africa, I'll predict how I think they'll end up. In the American league the Yankees will again win the pen-nant, out of force of habit. Their closest competition coming from the St. Louis Browns who came into the upper division last year and found they liked it. As sorry as I am to say it, Detroit will be lucky to keep in the big four. The reason being they are too weak in the catching spot.

I will lose many friends on this campus when I say I think Brooklyn will lose too many games to beat out the St. Louis Cardinals in the National league race. Brooklyn waited seventeen years to get the pennant, they shouldn't mind waiting a few more to get back again. You can't lose men like Reiser. Pee Wee Reese, Lew Riggs and Hugh 'asey and not notice it. My predictions stand, barring accidents, sick-

ness, tough luck, and the draft . If any team can get through without trouble from them, I wouldn't be surprised to see them win. This in-cludes Philadelphia.

Congratulations to "Gabby" Van Dis for receiving the "best spirit" award. "Gabby" has stood out all season as the logical one to receive this award; his spirit and playing is one of the outstanding things of this successful season. I can never recall "Gabby" with his spirit down, even in the last Calvin game.

Men or Mice . . .7

It seems that on the P.M. of the

13th, room 200 at the N.S.B. was

particularly active—but not chem-

cally speaking. You know the old

saying: "When the cat's away—"? Weren't MoCLAY and DAVIS a scream though?

After the Second Bounce . . .

Upon looking out of any of the cleaner N.S.B. windows, one can see in nice weather, much energy uselessly expended on the tennis c o u r t s . Have you ever seen "HAPPY" MAATMAN's racquet slash the air? It is a wonder to behold! To Have and to Hold . . .

One seldom sees PHYLIS PEL-GRIM unescorted these days—even if only from the 2nd floor of the N.S.B. to the 1st. It could be a mutual scientific interest — I said, it could be.

All Yolks Aside . . .

According to a recent slop-jar observation, ED KOSTER has been joking some yolks into thinking they were going to be chicks: but he snatched the unsuspecting em-bryos from their defenseless shells and slid them under cover glasses. Afterwards it was expedient that the N.S.B. Custodian (janitor) go in and mop up the lab. H e i l ! . . .

BOB "EMBRYO" RESCH has

his eyes adhered to the microscope

almost every P.M. not tak-up with other duties, and hopes soon to make public a thesis clearing up that "which came first" mystery— you know that "egg or chicken" business. He aptly carries on an engaging conversation about chick-ens — any kind.

S P A R S Q. How long will my training

period be? A. The training period will av-

erage about four months.

Q. Can an enlisted woman re-quest training in a particular field—for instance, r ad io -even if she has had no pre-vious training in that field?

A. Yes. But it cannot be guar-anteed 1 ; the request will be granic^..

Q. When do I get my uniform? A. After you arrive at training

school. However, you should bring enough civilian cloth-ing for a week or two.

Q. What will my hours be at training school?

A. The hours will depend on the school you attend. How-ever, they will be on a mili-tary basis. Reveille, taps, etc.

Twenty-five Tryout

For Baseball Te«m While there will be. no other

sports for the school this spring

there will be a baseball team. Jack has been working out with the boys in the gym because the weath-er has not yet permitted their going out of doors. This has been a handicap because not much can be done in the gym besides limber-ing up the players.

There are about twenty-five men coming out to the practices. The men are all new with the exception of Russ De Vette and Cick Higgs, who played with the te^m last year.

As soon as the weather is warm enough and the field dried off so that practice can be held on the field. Jack will take his men out-side. He will then be able to pick his team when he sees how well each man performs on the dia-mond.

sponsored by your Anchor, planned to open its current season Monday, April 19, at 4:00 P. M., but due to inclement weather the games had to be postponed. The games will be played every Monday at this time. The Anchor asks the cooperation of each student and especially the fair damsels from Voorhees and Van Vleck to help make this tour-nament a success. No matter where your interest lies, come and give the teams your support. The play-ers can give a much better per-formance if there is a little femi-nine appeal.

"BRING ON JHAJ ICE-COLD COCA-COLA"

Letters come from war plant managers telling how a pause for Coca-Cola is

welcomed by workers. If you had to

stand up to a hot furnace, you'd see

the word refreshment in a new light.

And as for refreshment, that's what ice-cold Coca-Cola is. No wonder

everybody agrees that the only thing like Coca-Cola is Coca-Cola, itself."

by Ruth Ann Poppen and Freida (Irote 's beautiful rendition (if the hymn, "He Lives." Joyce Muilen-berg supplied "chick feed" to all in the form of an in teres t ing book review on Lloyd Douglas ' bril l iant new novel, "The Robe." a "second peep" came f rom Frieda Grote with her lovely piano solo, "To S p r i n g "

by Grieg.

Audrey Scott ' s "deviled eggs , " a humorous disser ta t ion on Spring, were the spice of the evening and brought plenty of laughs as did the

" two little chicks," Mimi Moncada and Carol Bos, in their cute inter-pretat ion of precocious six-year-old pianists. "Scrambled eggs ," mixed by Florence Guis, were made up of rounds and famil iar songs "chirped" toge ther by all "chicks." The s inging of the society song concluded the p rogram a f t e r which Josephine Fitz as master-cr i t ic presented her report . The very successful and enjoyable meet ing was brought to a close with re-f r e shmen t s of "jel ly beans," sand-wiches and delicious punch served

bv the hostesses.

" B U N N I E S " SOROSIS T H E M E

Under the direction of " B u n n y " Millie Scholten, Sorosite Sopho-more "Bunnies ," presented an Eas te r p rogram at the regular meet ing last Fr iday Night .

For the devotions, Bunny Schol-ten read the resurrect ion story, and an Eas t e r poem, followed by a very appropr ia te prayer . "Eas t -er, 1943," was the t i t le of the very thought-provoking serious paper read by Bunny Aldrich, in which she discussed the indifferent a t t i -tude and the t rue Chris t ian at t i -tude toward this Eas t e r season.

A musical interlude was pre-sented by Bunny Taze laar , who

played Claude de Bussy's "Clair de Lune."

With Bunny Bogart as the man on the s t ree t , the Sorosites were taken to an imaginary s t ree t cor-ner to watch the Eas t e r parade, where to their s ide-spli t t ing sur-prise, they saw the " l a t e s t " in Eas te r costumes fo r the young marr ied couple, the "sidewalk Su-sie," the matron and daughte r , and the navy girl. Bunnies Aldrich, Atkins, Hadden, Scholten, Shif fner , and Taze laar modeled the styles.

Following the mas te r cr i t ic ' s re-port by Sorosite Phid Van Duzer, cokes and potato chips were en-joyed by the society, by courtesy of the Sophomores.

Cosmopolitan meet ing fo r April 16 was opened with p raye r by Dale Stoppels. Chor is ter "Dominick" Mine then conducted the song serv-ice which included such mil i tary tunes as the "Ba t t l e Hymn of the Republic" and the Army Air Corps song. The concluding number was

the Cosmo song.

"The C.B.I. a t Work" was the t i t le of Roy Davis ' serious paper . In his paper the first l ieutenant of the Cosmo Bureau of Invest igat ion outlined the effects and resul ts of smoking. The paper was presented

as a regular f e a t u r e of the C.B.I.'s p rogram of public sen-ice.

George Toren tickled funnybones with his humor paper on "Men and Necessit ies." George sketched the various react ions of different types of men in moments of neces-sity or quick decision. F u r t h e r hu-mor was added by Harland Steele and Chuck Dykema with a skit enti t led "The Internat ional Jew." The lit t le play reviewed the world-wide charac ter of the business world, the indomitable money-

maker who specializes in the cloth-

ing business. Af t e r "Duf fy" Stokdyk had given

his mas te r cri t ic 's report , the usual j business meet ing was conducted.

A song service led by Clarence Buurma opened the Knickerbocker l i te rary mee t ing f o r April 16. Dur-ing the s inging Tom Van Dahm played t h e ivories fo r the last

t ime before leaving f o r the a r m y on April 21. Inspir ing devotions were given by Don Van Fa r rowe .

Bob S t r a b b i n g tr ied his best to get some l augh te r f o r his humor paper, " T h e Lit t le Man T h a t

Wasn ' t T h e r e , " and he did p re t t y well. His paper was criticized by a lumnus Henry Satow. Because of Bill Oonk's absence the serious

paper fo r the evening was omit ted.

Dur ing the business meet ing an all-college s t a g smoker was dis-

cussed f o r all the f r a t e r n i t i e s and independent men of the college to be held in the Knickerbocker audi-torium. A f t e r the meet ing f a r e -wells were bid by members of the

Knicks to Tom Van Dahm and Max Boersma, both of whom a r e leav-

ing fo r the a rmed services.
