Concern and As part of a nation-wide drive for

government act ion on Vietnam, Hope Col-lege w i l l observe a "mora to r i um on busi-ness as usual" Wednesday, Oct. 15. The plans for the day call for discussions, debates, speakers, facul ty forums, f i lms,

readings, dra f t counselling and other spe-

cial services, and a peace march and me-

morial service in the early evening.

There has been a great deal of discussion

on the mora to r ium among facul ty mem-

bers and students. Unfor tunate ly , there has been so much discussion that the main

anchor editorial

purpose of the day seems to have been

obscured in a c loud of rhetor ic. Perhaps it is t ime to look at the mora to r ium itself,

and discover just what its objectives are.

First, the morator ium is a day to set aside normal activit ies in order to con f ron t the realities of the Vietnam situation.

Classes have not been suspended; the day is one of personal, voluntary commi tment to

show concern for a pol icy of our govern-ment wh ich has involved this count ry in

many years of war. The central issue of the

Vietnam mora to r ium is not the suspension of classes. The decision to cancel classes wi l l not be made by the Admin is t ra t ion of

Hope College. The issue is, rather, commi t -

ment and concern. Second, the morator ium is not a specific

cr i t ic ism of the of f ic ia l e f for ts of the

government to bring the war to a close.

The campus planners have not organized a

day of pickets and protests. Rather, they

seek to use the day as a means of in forming

the campus commun i t y of the issues in

Vietnam. They have planned services for

The decision of the Academic Af fa i rs Board to appoint an ad hoc sub-committee

to consider possible revision of Hope's

academic calendar could very well be the

first step toward making the Hope College

academic calendar more meaningful.

The semester system now used by Hope

has been abandoned by many colleges

throughout America who have sought more

f lexib le means of structuring the academic

year. A great variety of systems are now in

use, one of wh ich is the quarter system

which divides the school year into four

three-month periods. Under such a set-up a

student can easily adjust his academic

program to his specifications and can f inish

college in three years or in f ive w i t h o u t

ever being out of school for more than

ium is the belief that the prob lem of the

Uni ted States' cont inu ing involvement in

the Vietnam war is such a central and dangerous issue that individuals, individu-

al ly andcorporate ly , should set aside their normal tasks to conf ron t it and seek to resolve it.

Senator Mark Hatf ie ld endorsed the mora to r ium by saying, "The type of non-violent action which the mora to r ium at-

tests is not on ly highly commendable but

also sorely needed." Reinhold Neibuhr

pleaded, " L e t us all support the students w h o are t ry ing to stop, by their morato-

r ium, this disastrous, cost ly and pointless

war . "

Clearly, the activit ies planned for the Hope College mora tor ium are centered

around campus part ic ipat ion. We encour-

age each individual in the academic com-

mun i t y to careful ly consider the question of commi tmen t which the mora to r ium

raises. I f , indiv idual ly and col lect ively, we

feel that the mora to r ium may help in some

way to bring about peace in V ie tnam more

rapidly and to stop the war wh ich has

already taken hundreds of thousands of

human lives, then we must respond to the

call to lay aside meetings and classes and all

our other "business as usual" in order to

demonstrate to each other, the leaders of

this nat ion, and the wor ld , our concern. If

we are concerned both intel lectual ly and

humanly , then we must take this one day,

th is one oppor tun i t y , to express that con-

cern.

three months at a t ime. Because of the

length of the quarters, work-s tudy projects

are much more practical. Another plan is the four-one-four sys-

tem. Under this program, semesters are

retained but a one-month period between

semesters is al loted for intensive indepen-

dent research. The th i rd system is the tr i-mester plan

in wh ich the school year is div ided into

three fou r -mon th periods, w i t h a fu l l slate

of courses of fered each semester. The advantages and disadvantages of

each of these ideas in addi t ion to several more in regard to Hope w i l l be discussed

by the subcommit tee. Hopefu l ly this dis-

cussion wi l l lead to the abandonment of

Hope's present system in favor of a more

f lex ib le program.

Mrs. Jacobs sees cities as our natural habitat Edi tor 's Note: Th is week's anchor review is wr i t t en by assistant pro-fessor of English Dr. El izabeth Reedy. She reviews " T h e Econ-omy of Ci t ies" by Jane Jacobs (New Yo rk : Random House, 1969, $5.95).

D R . E L I Z A B E T H R E E D Y

A N D I F , AS Mrs. J a c o b s be-lieves, c i t ies m e a n d ivers i ty , un-end ing g r o w t h and change , busy-ness as well as bus iness , t h e n these , not u n i f o r m i t y , stasis, a calm and re t i r ing ex i s tence a m o n g acres of grass and ba rbecue pits , b e c o m e t h e ha l lmarks of o u r soc ie ty .

It is prec ise ly th is p e r c e p t i o n tha t carr ies Mrs. J a c o b s i n to t h e b o d y of her b o o k and her cen t ra l a r g u m e n t wh ich , charac te r i s t i -cal ly, de f i e s m u c h of t he conven-t ional w i s d o m a b o u t e c o n o m i c g r o w t h a n d d e v e l o p m e n t . E c o n o -mic h e a l t h , she claims, is d u e no t t o large i n d u s t r y and huge , e f f ic i -ent m e t h o d s of o rgan i za t i on and p r o d u c t i o n , b u t t o t h e ex i s t ence of m u l t i t u d i n o u s , small , diverse o f f -s h o o t s f r o m t h e larger c o r p o r a -t ions . Since large c o r p o r a t i o n s are f ocused a l m o s t exclusively on the c u s t o m e r s at h a n d , their innova-

tive a n d / o r addi t ive work is very m u c h l imi ted to i m p r o v e m e n t s in the i r p resen t p r o d u c t s .

S M A L L F I R M S , ON the o t h e r h a n d , can a f f o r d to be m o r e f lex-ible. F u r t h e r m o r e , " b r e a k a w a y s " f r o m pa ren t compan ie s , which are a n o t h e r i m p o r t a n t source of new w o r k , are m o r e likely t o occur if the pa ren t c o m p a n i e s are small. Basical ly, she c la ims tha t diversi ty and mul t ip l i c i ty in f i rms , use of capi ta l , divisions of l abor , im-por t s , e x p o r t s , e tc . , beget m o r e diversi ty and mul t ip l i c i ty , and hence , increasing e c o n o m i c de-v e l o p m e n t .

It is th is cent ra l sec t ion of The Economy of Cities t ha t I f ind most unconv inc ing . N o w h e r e does Mrs. J a c o b s seriously cons ider tha t impos ing segment of t he Amer i can e c o n o m y cons is t ing of huge, t e c h n o c r a t i c ( t o b o r r o w G a l b r a i t h ' s t e r m ) c o r p o r a t i o n s . In 1968, 100 c o m p a n i e s a c c o u n t e d f o r jus t u n d e r one-half of t he n a t i o n ' s business . Th i s would seem a fact of cons ide rab le econo-mic s igni f icance , yet Mrs. J a c o b s

leaves it and all of its imp l i ca t ions out of her analysis .

A S E C O N D t e n d e n c y tha t I f o u n d t r oub l i ng in th is sec t ion was her d i s p r o p o r t i o n a t e re l iance on n o n - c o n t e m p o r a r y examples . R e p e a t e d l y , she c lar i f ied or docu -m e n t e d a po in t by re fe r r ing t o specif ic cases: Mrs. I b sen tha l ' s brassiere m a n u f a c t u r i n g in the 1920 ' s ; b icycle m a n u f a c t u r i n g in n i n e t e e n t h - c e n t u r y J a p a n ; Henry F o r d ' s beginnings in 1903; t h e c o m p a r a t i v e e c o n o m i c well-being of Manches t e r and B i rmingham in n i n e t e e n t h - c e n t u r y Eng land ; brass ke t t l e m a n u f a c t u r i n g in medieval Dinan t . Rarely did she refer t o the ' 6 0 ' s and to Gene ra l Motor s , RCA, Boeing Ai r c r a f t , U.S. Steel , etc.

T h u s , I am lef t to w o n d e r . Is what Mrs. J a c o b s says not applic-able t o such large c o r p o r a t i o n s ? How valid is her a r g u m e n t w h e n she s imply ignores the ex i s t ence of the k inds of businesses tha t a c c o u n t fo r half t h e GNP?

When she discusses how t h e d i sc r imina to ry use of capi ta l has shaped t h e h i s to ry of this coun -t ry , w h e n she d o c u m e n t s the fla-grant and embar rass ing was te of capital fo s t e r ed by A m e r i c a n wea l th , when she r emarks tha t " e c o n o m i c d e v e l o p m e n t , no mat-ter when or where it occurs , is p r o f o u n d l y subversive of t he s t a tus q u o , " she provides the reader wi th i m p o r t a n t insights in to m a n y of t h e p r o b l e m s pla-guing t o d a y ' s u r b a n socie ty , and suggests no t so m u c h what to d o , but m a y b e s o m e t h i n g a b o u t h o w to d o it. F o r Mrs. Jacobs , I t h i n k , the r e sponse we need now is no t , "Well , back to the d rawing b o a r d , " bu t " L e t ' s t une in to the life of t he s i d e w a l k . "

only one previous game and despi te having been bea ten badly by a weak t eam.

F u r t h e r m o r e , I should no t have men t ioned the fact that Kazoo had been picked by the M1AA coaches to finish in the league cellar this season. Any d u m m y knows that when a t eam f inds out tha t it has been picked fo r last place it will get so fired up that it ends up winning every game.

Just th ink what would have happened last Sa turday if 1 had wr i t ten the story the right way. T h e Kazoo squad , having read my s tory and realizing how much be t t e r it was than Hope , would have gone in to the game over-con f iden t and ripe for upse t .

T h e Flying D u t c h m e n , know-ing that an upset victory over a power of Kalamazoo ' s s ta ture would bring t hem s ta tewide and even na t ionwide a t t e n t i o n , would have played with a de te rmina t ion never before witnessed in college foo tba l l .

Groy Kaper would have had his greatest day ever as a passer and Jon Cons tan t would have come in to the game in the fou r th quar-ter and t h rown three t o u c h d o w n passes.

Harry R u m o h r would have run back a kickoff 95 yards fo r a TD. The offensive line would have opened gaping holes fo r Bob Haveman to run t h rough . The defense , no d o u b t , would have played hard-nosed, hard-hi t t ing footba l l . And Carl ton Colder might have even got ten a chance to play some of fense for a change.

But I blew it.

I let d o w n my school and my team. And I 'm sorry. It won ' t happen again.
