For many of us the experiences of the first few days are just old stuff, while for others there is required a certain uhreaking-in period. One of the first things to strike our eye is the heautiful campus of our schooi. The huiidings have an ideal location in one of the hest residential districts of a city known for its well-kept homes. The school is itself a very fine example of harmonious architecture: every building is designed on the same beautiful plan, and erected on just the right spot. But Calvin is much more than just a collection of huiidings. Each nook and cranny has its own tradition and atmosphere. The honcis of friendship renewed, and the new ones formed are an important part of the students life at Calvin. Students may come from far and near, and yet there is immediately dis- cernihie that honci of fellowship which hinris true Christians. The tie of Christian love soon draws them together. Herein lies the secret of that spark of Calvin Friendship, that, if once caught, can never die again! it is the purpose of this hook to help recall something of the campus, of the traditions, of the friends, of the truly Christian atmosphere of the school, which we have grown to love so well.

It is this maneuvering hand that carries the bewildered new female coiiegians through the tide of the first few wccics of school with its Big Sister movement. This year Vviima Heyns, chair- man of this activity, saw to it that each wondering iittie Miss had a Big Sister to help her with the early prohiems of stuctent life. Vtfhen the iist of the students was finaiiy completed, the entire League was divided into groups'-each for the purpose of raising funds to furnish the girls' room. Their lounge has been renovateci recently, ctue to the efforts of this 'sgroup cam- paign. Uncier the aisle leadership of the President, Mabel Jahaay, and the sponsorship of Nlrs. pets, stiii more improvements are expected. The Leagues main purpose is to promote friendship among all the girls of the school f-I first at the beginning of the year by means of the Big Sister movement, then hy means of the group campaigns throughout the year, and finally, hy means of an occasional scavenger hunt, trip, or sleigh-ride. A 21 V J PRESHMEN 1944 S IOIIN XXAN Tu, GLENN VAN Nooizn President Vice-President Fino BAKER RUTH t'looc.srEEN Q-2. Student Council Secretary-Treasurer The class of '44 started, as previous Freshman classes have, bewildered and amazed at the routine of college life. However, after a few days of going around Hin a daze, we began to adjust ourselves to the new surroundings and decided that Calvin was definitely a fine school to attend. After just a few days of woric, the social phase hegan to show itself, introduced by the Soup Bowl. iVIost of the newcomers enjoyed the occasion very much and iearned to know and to recognize their classmates better. A month or two afterwards the Sophs entertained us at the Soph-Frosh party. Because of the stormy weather, the scavenger hunt at Faiiashurg Park had to he abandoned. and we resorted to some tine entertainment in our own school gym. But before we were aware of it, the Christmas Holidays were due. Of course, they were a welcome recess which gave us an opportunity to catch up on those choice hits of neglected woric, hut we soon found that, as the vacation days passed. we were eager to get hacic--'even if it was only to he greeted hy our first set of finals. But these were soon over, and we began the second semester with new zeal. Then we began our part of entertaining. There was the Freshman Nlixer. Its theme was in keeping with the times'-'of a military nature-'and it was very successful! And now. as our first year at Calvin is drawing to an end, we are already iooicing forward with eagerness to our next three years here, and we know that we shalt enjoy them as much as we have this first one. 23 Dorris Arrance Gerrit Ballast Jim Bere Ed Berends Kenneth Bcrgsma Angie Beulcema Vern Boersma Peter Boogaarcl John Boone L Na ,:-. gr x45 ..:'W5--- 1 55: 5 ::':'l!z!: 2:,::::T, AIIIIZAIQE Q 1 EE 5E:iEE' :: ' '55 SEEEEEE 35+ V 4 LICHHUB BOSUIHII Ada BOSSCl'lSF Yvillis Breulcer Henry Buikstra Clara Buitenlvos Nlary Buurm a Paul Dame Joanne IDC Boer Doro thy Dekker Helen De Lange Virginia De Nise tVlarg'aret De Vos Evelyn De V ries Helen Doornloos EI'Vi1f1 lDOTI1b0S Dorothy Dykstra Jeanne .

Eva-ning l':l1ll'Fl1llllIlll'Ili The Calvin Spark Flares Forth l the things that malces college lile so very interesting is the friencily rivalry we ween unclerclassmen. lnitiations this year were mainly conlinecl to our otlicially sponsorecl Soup Bowl, helcl at the cnci ol the lirst week of school. Despite quite volcl weather lor Septemher, a goocl portion of the stucient loociy assemlalecl in Franlclin Parlc lor the afternoon liielcl clay. Several contests were helcl, in which the Sophs provecl in general to he the more superior tor iuclcyl, although the Frosh also showeci their mettle hy clelleating the Sophs in the relay races. The climax ol the afternoon. however, was the customary tug 0' war through the llire hose. not quite so pleasant on a eolci afternoon. Here the score was eveneci when holh sicles toolc a soaking twice. ln the evening the Calvin Knights anti Ladies assembled in the Franklin Com- munity House. A line ciinner was servecl, after which there was a short program. Dr. Drost' was the spealcer ol the evening. clelivering a very entertaining message. Anil how coulcl we forget' Nlaestro Toeset and his nationally famous orchestra? But one thing went wrong. Someone overloolceci the slight matter ot a needle lox' ilu- phonograph. Consequently, when the orchestra started to Hpiayf' all that Coulcl he hearci was nsilent musicf, But that was all right. The orchestra ciicl very well once the phonograph. got to playing.

The college l attend is Christian, he told me. uVVe have chapel once a weelcg and if you want Bilole courses, you can talce tlmem 'privately at the home of tlme local ministerf' l neecl lmarclly add tlmat lmis profanity laetrayed his laclc of true religious training. That incident exemplifies the secularization of American higher education. It is a tragic reality that schools established in tlme inter- ests ol religion deny the very God whom they once sought to honor. The fact is, how- ever. that institutions of lmiglmer learning must light a valiant laattle to remain Christian at all. let alone propagate the faith. Theirs is tlme responsibility of malcing tlme world intel- ligilaleg tlmat is no easy taslc and as a result tlme foundations of many a church-related college have been destroyed. Difference from state institutions has laecome largely nominal. The desire to lJe open-minded witlmout reserve lmas yielded, at limest, a vicious naturalism. A more amloitious program carried to any length presents a worsely distorted view. Vvhen once the sulnordinating ol tlme Christian iaith laegins, tlme complete outlawing of tlme super- natural is inevitalale. lor riglmtly has it lbeen said: Hvvlmen religion is not iirst, it rates a 'poor second. ln a chapel address tlme Reverend Nicholas. secretary ol tlme League ol Evangelical Stu- dents, told us that tlme biggest prololem he faces in lmis worlc in tlme American student World is that of a C'compartment-Christianity. Students relegate their Christianity to a small sphere: tlmey are unalale to coordinate Chris- tian principles witli the various lielols in which they are studying. Xvitlm tlmat in mind tlme more tlmanlclul l am llmat Calvin College has taught me to relate all things to God: tlmey are tlmat . . . Christ is not only tlme Worcl by Whom all things have loeen created and in Xvhom they consist, but He is also the lrmcarnate One tlmrougli Xvlmom they lmave in principle laeen recreated. And therefore the Holy Spirit guarantees trutlm in tlle material as well as in tlme spiritual realm. Having tlmat spirit, can l, as a cliilcl ol' God, do aught else luut recognize that tlme entire uni- verse reveals my heavenly Father? As Christians we lmolcl to tlme doctrine ol direct creation lay God. Philosophers and scientists advance their theories, hut as Clmris- tians, we lcnow wlmence we and the universe are. Gur position is also plmilosoplmically ten- almle. for it explains reality lnest. lncleed. a rational world-and life-view demands the creation doctrine. Vve admit we lmave a 'plmilosoplmical duty lnut at tlme same time we would not forget tlmat. lacing linite, we never see tlme wlmole ol' reality. Vvitlm tlme Bilale as spectacles we can get tlme world in locus. tlmerelmy honoring God as tlme Creator as well as Sustainer. That is not using God to explain tlme world lmut that is 38 tlminlcing tlme tlmouglmts ol Gott alter Him. Tlmus all ol lille lmecomes religious.

These meetings are marlcecl hy their friendly atmosphere und good lellowship. lxflemlyers of the clulo talce part in the informal programs which always have the mission theme. Qlten men and Women, engaged in mission worlc at home or ahroad, are guest spealcers at the meetings. Such gatherings do much lo arouse enthusiasm. lor Kingdom yvorlc, and the hymn sings that usually lollow the meet- ings are a testimony lo the inspiration received. The society enjoys the sponsorship of people who are very enthusiastic about its interests, Professor and lVlrs. Wlonsma. These hi-weekly meetings, however, form lout a small part ol the activity ol the Nlission Society. The unique aspect of the club lies in lhe actual mission worlc that many of its memhers carry on. Grand Rapids has a large numloer ol Gospel halls and missions that present opportunities for interested young people to share in extending the Kingdom. Several students have Sunday School classes which they teach regularly. There are others who spealc in the missions on Sunday evenings, or at the inliirmary and the jail. An important worlc is carried on lay those students who do personal worlc with individuals or families in the vicinity of the missions. The cluln has about seventy-live memhers. Qfficers for the past year were: presi- dent, Everett Van Relceng vice-president, Edward Boer: secretary, Gerda Bos: treasurer. Cornelia Dylcstrag field manager. Peter Delclcerg and seminary representa- tive, Clarence Boomsma. 52 PELLQWSHIP On each Tuesday evening at seven-fifteen, girls, sometimes thirty-tive, sometimes sixty, gather in the Girls' Room for a quiet hour of fellowship. Fifteen minutes of song opens the meeting. A member of the group then reacis from Scripture and leacls the girls in prayer. At alternate meetings stuclent cliscussions on some part of the Bible are conctuctecl, this year centering about the paraiales of Jesus. These informal discussions prove to he both stimulating and instructive and offer opportunity for expression on the part of each one present. The club enjoys the sponsorship of Mrs. Grace Pets, the Dean of Women, who once 'each month, in her inimitable manner, spealcs to the girls on a topic of vital signilicance to girlhoocl. Also guest spealcers acid to the interest of these meetings. Throughout the year the Club sponsors interesting special evenings such as the welcoming party at the beginning of the school year, the Thanksgiving potluclc and the annual spring festive party. The Girls' Christian Fellowship Club provides a retreat from the rush and strain of school life. Nlemtaers will testify to the spiritual elevation and renewed faithful- ness to ideals that is experienced at each meeting. This organiiation welcomes all girls on the campus to join its fellowship and extencis a special invitation to those whose homes are not in the city.

The members, who are either pre-nnecls, pre-clents, pre-nurses, or hiology majors, search here and there for things relatecl to the stucly of organic science. They loolc through microscopes, ancl through hospital winclows as well. Besides mnlcing a trip to Butterworth Hospital, this organization spent several meetings cluring the twenty-lirst year of its existence in listening to guest spealcers. These spealcers were gracluates ol' Calvin who have made a name for themselves in the medical lvielcl. The spealcers incluclecl such well-lcnown men as Dr. Batts, Dr. Hcetclerlcs, ancl Dr. Venema. The speeches made were very profitable and interesting lor they revealed to us the problems of the meolieal profession. Some ol them supplemented courses stucliecl in the college ancl aclclecl to these interesting anal helpful facts. They larought us into contact with the actual practice of theories we have studied ancl helpecl us in visualizing the icleals for which we are striving.

Usuaiiy a team to he reciconeci with in any man's ieague, the sophomore aggrega- tion from Kaiamazoo was heipiess ineiore the harrage which the ixfiuysicens-men iireci.

This coupled with the early banishment of Chuck iiult. gave Calvin fans an uneasy iirst half which saw their team on the short end oi a 24-16 count. Consideralfaly calmed, the Knights came hack from the loclcer-room to hegin a steady hail of shots which Heads UP! gave them their liirst M.O.C.C. victory. This game was one ol the most furiously-fought battles ever wit- nessed at Burton gym and the 41-33 defeat of the confidence proved short- Techmen gave the team considerable confidence. This lived, however, lor the Knights received a scare from a much-improved Vvestern State team when they nearly wrested a thrill-paciced hall game from the undefeated quintet. The crowd which iaattied hitter elements to witness the fray, was not disappointed. Ballard, Kohler, and iViaddoci-as of Western State Grand Rapids made the Knights light every inch ol the way for the 29-27 victory. Christmas vacation saw the Calvin team in iowa. Central College in Peiia caught our team hadiy oil form and gleefully downed the highly-touted Knights 35-29. Raniciing from this ingiorious defeat, the Maroon and Gold encountered the powerful Simpson aggregation from indianoia. By way of excuse, the Simpson hoys were Hon. Both teams were hitting the hasicet well, hut two weelcs of inactivity had dulled Caivin's edge and the iaoys lost their second in a row hy a, score oi 64-55.

This year. uncler the tutelage of Dr. Henry Stola, the team is prepared to meet the toughest opposition. Athletic Director Albert H. Nluyslcens recently announcecl the purchase of new uniforms and all other equipment for the team. Baseball has otlicially become a lVl.O.C,C. sport with the champion- ship to be cleciclecl in Detroit during the seconcl week of May. Games have already been scheclulecl with Ferris. Lawrence Tech, G. R. Junior College and Western State Teachers College. Besides a large crop ot newcomers who are out for the team, there are seven returning veterans from last season. With the exception of the two ace slingers, Westveer ancl De Kralfer, all veterans will have a tough time holrl- ing their regular posts. Coach Stotx has reasons for saying, Unless the batting stumps, there is no reason why we cannot have a successful base- ball season. 70 Having already brought three conference trophies to Calvin, the traclc team of 1941 is prepared to capture another one of the golcl cups for its Alma Mater. The fellows have been treacling the cinder paths since early spring and are in top shape, according to Coach Chuck Bult. Besictes the versatile Butt, returning veterans include John Posthumus, Tom Thomasma, AI Elciersveld and Elmer Van Beelc. The two cohorts, Tom Thomasma and Junior Posthumus, loom as the loest point-getters of the coming season. Tom in the hurdles, pole vault. laroarl jump and relay is a lilcely prospect to talce individual' honors for the season. However, Junior in the quarter mile is the best het to set a conference recorcl. If the per- formances ol' both these men are up to par, Athletic Director Nluyslcens has predicted triumphs for them at the state collegiate meet late in the season. Eldersvelct in the pole vault and clashes and Van Beet: in the miclclle distances are also reliable veterans. Among the new men Coach Bult is relying on Northouse, former all lVl.l.A.A. weight man from Hope College, as one of the leaders in field events. Rouncling out the rest of the squacl are Boertje, Van Relcen. Snapper. Sluis, Nagel, Plutschouw. Van Wieren, Van Heest, Huizenga, and Vermeer.

GULF Aspirants for the Calvin golf team bave been driving tlie little wlmite pellet since the llirst sign of spring. Some of tbe low scores tluat lmve been banded in are ample reason for Coach De Vries' exuberant spirits. Vvitli llie addition ol Jolin Vanden Berg, former University ol Grand Rapids number one golfer, tlie team has been considerably strengthened. Jolm is a consistent middle 70's golfer. Teeing-oft witli tlie team this season will be Bob Van Dylcen, member ol past Cl'lalHpi0DSl'llp teams and a veteran of tbree years college experience. If Bob can get enougll spring practice, it is our propliecy lie will be tlie medalist in the con- ference cliampionsbips which will be beld at tlie Ridgernoor Country Club in the middle of Play. Otluer members of last seasons squad wbo are returning to the fairways are Lou Vander Till, .lolm Rottscliaelcr, and Tom Tliomasma. Besides tliese men, a Freshman, Vern Boersma, is strong contender lor a regular teeing-oft spot. To select lour men lor tlie team is tlle clillicult job ol Coacll Jolin De Vries. Besides tlme conference cliampionsliips. an extensive schedule bas been made so that tlie linlcsmen will be in top lorm for llie cliampionsliips. 72 TE The prospects lor a successful tennis season are very bright this year. All hut two ol last year's letter men are ready to toe the service line lor the 1941 season. A newcomer, .lerry Paulson, has provecl himself a strong contencler lor the numluer one position hy virtue ol his victory in the intramural tournament last lall. Last seasons number one racqueteer, Johnny Van Dellen, cannot he rulecl out of the light this early in the season. Paired with Pele De Jong in the clouhles. Van Dellen is countecl on to share in at least one conference Championship match. Chuck Delclcer, the only Senior on the squacl, has improvecl every year in the past ancl this year should he no exception. Another memher ol last year's team, Boh Bolt, is also expectecl to show improve- ment. Besicles Paulson, other promising roolcies are Scholten, Pelcelcter, Nleeter. anal Vancler Tuin. At this time Scholten. hecause of his experience ancl steacly game, appears the most likely candiclate to fill in one ol the open slots on the squacl. The Calvin netsters are aiming lor the Conference Championships which are to he helcl at Grand Rapicls in the miclclle of May. Sluncling: P1-lielnlm-r, Boll, Conch lvluysliens, Delilier, Dcnlung.

Naturally witli liis main taslc lacing to elirect all musical activities at Calvin, Professor Swets cannot clevote as mucli time to ttle contestants as tliey slmoulct tiave, nor as mucti as lie would lilce to give ttiem. Accordingly tlie valuable aifi wl1icl1 lVlr. Antliony l't0CliCITli1 renclers to time spealcers is greatly appreiriaterl. Qratory is tiwe main forensic activity outsicle ol' cletnat- ing. and tliree contests are lielcl annually at Calvin.

Nlarion Rilnlmens won second place and ttie equivalent of ten silver dollars while Rena Haagsrna was given tlie third place award ol' live dollars.

VVitl1in an llour tlle person must prepare a speecti containing pertinent inl'ormat'ion on a limited pliase of a very general topic. Gnly this very general topic is lcnown before tlme contest.

Of course, some of the hashlul freshman hoys were not quite sure Where they should loolf when the lady of the house leaned over and whispered things in the coach's ear. hut since she tallced business, it was no douht quite proper even in company and the laoys could loolc wherever they pleased. Dehaters sometimes in their speech worlc envy haslcethall players, for it certainly would he a great comfort to them to have a loyal gallery that would cheer and hoo the judges, The loser especially olten feels inclined to try it. Dehaters always have to rest their victories on the point system. as haslcethall players to their disgust occasionally are forced to do. But a deloater can. and usually will, return quite convinced that he won despite the decision of that particular judge and any other judge also, for that matter, The loregoing remarlcs are not intended to he an apology for Calvin's past season's record: they merely point to the tact that when a school can hold a majority of victories in lour major tournaments. there can he no occasion for calling the season anything hut successful, whereas a record lilce that would seem disaster to a haslcethall squad. Alter the customary slow, lumlaering start, the dehaters were finally proddecl into their stride hy Coach Delclcer and soon dehates were held between the Calvin teams. Then came practice debates with various schools such as Grand Rapids Junior, Hope, and Vvestern State. The men's debate tournament at East Lansing was the scene of the first decision debates of the season. Teams that toolc part in the tournament were: Vander Kooi and Pelcelder, 'Kuipers and Brugginlc. Broene and Reitsema, Stielstra and Rilahens, Baker and Vvestra, Geerdes and Huizenga. Petersen and Klooster, Beulcelman and Heerema. The Broene and Reitsema comlaination, intact since the second year of high school, were quite elated ahout Winning laoth ol' their debates to maintain a record of no defeats in this college tournament. At the women's tournament at Wayne, Calvin was represented lay a veteran team of Ruth Warner and Irene Schuringa. a sister team of Eleanor and Bernicejean Hoogstecn. a senior team of Pat' Hager and Anna Belle De Vries, and a freshman team ol Alice Zaagsma and Vvilma Vvegter. 85 Annually a tournament is tmeici at Nian- cilester Coiiege in indiana in wilictm, iast year. a few cieiaaters from Calvin partici- pated.

These deloates are less technical than time college debates and are designed to arouse audience interest lay debaters freed from time constraint of a judged debate. Controlling debating and other speech activity is a student forensics board, headed tliis year by Herm Broene. Of course most of the responsibility rests upon Professor Swets and Harold Delclcer, as coaches. Other members of the forensics laoard in addition to Broene are the following: Bill Stielstra, men's debate manager: Rutll Vvarner. women's deloate manager: Ben Vander Kooi, oratory man- ager: and Douglas Paauw, treasurer. Upon tliese individuals fall time duties of deciding liow tile most activity can be put into foren- sics, laow tlxe forensics funds may most advan- tageously lae used, and of making definite arrangements for tile specific activities.

This ycar's seheclule has heen very heavy. The semi-weelcly rehearsals were used to prepare selections for the weekly produvlion on the Baci: to God Hour. Not only were periods used in rehearsals lor these radio programs hut hours passed during the actual production of the records. This was one phase of letting . . every tongue adore Him. ln addition. numhers had to he learned for a Thanlcsgiving Day Concert, and an entire repertoire had to he mastered so that a successful tour could he enacted. The Vvestern Tour was a great suc- cess this year with the choir singing twenty concerts in sixteen days in the following states: illinois, lowa. South Dakota, Minnesota. Wisconsin and hflichigan, hesides giving small pro- grams in Central College ancl Chicago Christian High School. A well-balanced program was renclered with heautilul sacrecl selections, including a group ol Russian numhers and a group ol Negro spirituals. it hacl as its stirring climax a glorious arrangement of A lVlighty Fortress is Qur God f-1 a theme which coulcl he well acloptefl in this present war-torn worlcl.

Y 3 89 SSJAH Four huneireci and ninety-eight voices singing with Christmas Joy the beautiful Hancieiys Niessiaii is an experience not reaclily tor- golten. Just such an experience thrilled the thousancls who throngecl the Civic Auditorium on December 6, l9fl0, lo hear the twenty-first renciition ol this great oralorio hy the Caivin College Oratorio Society. Each year a higher rung is reached on the ladder ol' perfection hy the ahie ciirector, Professor Seymour Swets. until it seems as it he has reached the heights.

This unity is felt throughout the rendition until the ciimax is reachect in the magnificent Hhiaileiujah Chorus with a speii-hounci, reverent auclience stancting at attention. The chorus was accompanied hy lVlrs. Aiyce Lantinga at the orgatron ancl a portion of the Grand Rapids Symphony Orches- tra.

This yeaufs enlarged audience was given a taste ol the most excellent performance ol this worlc in Grand Rapids to date. The precision with which the group sang the Hliual Chorus is worthy of comment, and such intonation and shading'-1 giving the worlc a most 'polished rendition. Those who left the auditorium could not help hut feel that this oratorio was heaven-inspired. Nor could they have heard a more dramatic Elijah than Raymond Koch. Of the other soloists they could he equally proud, because they were good examples ol the alyility ol our own local talent'-Ahleen Delclcer, as the Vvidowg .lames De Jongc, as Obadiah: 'Hilda Van Dam Keuning, as an Angelg Marius Roolcs, as the Youth. The Angers Trio was composed of lVlrs. Jacolo Buiten, Nlrs. Henry Schuiterna. and lVlrs. Ben Nl. Barendse. This year the chorus was assisted lJy Nlrs.

Each Vveclnesclay evening of the seconcl semester stuclents ancl faculty of hoth college ancl seminary were hi-ought to the microphones ol station VVLAV. These programs were designed to represent some ot the activities which Calvin fosters anct to express something of the spirit which pervades its campus. According to all reports, these programs have been well received ancl have helpecl to strengthen the vital honcls of union between Calvin ancl its con- stituency. lnciclentally, they have proloaloly macle our school laetter lmown in the community, and have wiclenecl its sphere of inlluence. It circumstances are favorahle, loroaclcasting will he resumecl next year. Organizations which appeared in one or more programs are the following: Orchestra, A Cappella Choir, Thespians, lVlission Society, Girls' League, Girls' Christian Fellowship Club, Seminary Chorus, ancl Seminary Corps. There were also several miscellaneous musical programs. Harold Delclcer servecl as regular announcer. Creclit is clue to the energetic committee, of which Harolcl Delclcer was chair- man ancl Helen De Jager secretary, and to President Schultze who gave his full and hearty cooperation. Grateful aclcnowleclgment is made of the generosity ot station VVLAV in making its facilities available without cost. 92 arm in Bu:-lu-lmnn.

Business Manager N K Chimes, the hoclge-podge of student views and opinions, mirrors the soul of the Calvin student hotly. In its pages the reacler meets his fellow stuclents, touches and samples the inner thought life of the writers, and emerges from its pages with mixed sentiments, according to the tenor of the tale. Chimes contains a balanced array of reading material, ranging from the humorous to the thought-provoking. Sport activity, club life, social slants, hook reviews, and campus news comprise a large amount of the reacting material submitted each month hy the staff and student contrihutors. It is the purpose of the magazine to present a word picture of student life and thought on the Calvin campus. The staff has endeavored to live up to the high ideals instituted hy former staffs, and expresses the hope that future puhiications will continue to fulfill the purpose of the school paper. Although our school has no journalism class to manage the production of a Calvin paper, the staff has been, on the whole. more than satisfied with student response to the need for cooperation. b Outstanding writers in our circles have at one time or another filled a position on the Chimes staff, and it is with this in mind that each year an opportunity is 96 presented to aspiring Fresimman writers to put their i'il0LlQlltS into print in time pages oi' Chimes.
