Donald Williams spoke to the members of the Holland Branch of the American Association of University Women Thursday night at Durfee Hall. Dr. Williams, chairman of the Holland Area Environmental Action Council, confronted the group with specific pollution problems. His slides reminded everyone of the water pollution in Holland and its surrounding communities. "We have to face a dilemma nationally as well as locally.

All of us want to do something about pollution, and yet we aren't willing to give up the type of life which causes the pollution of our own natural resources," Dr. Williams said. "In Genesis 1:28, God gave us dominion over the earth, but we need to have a more mature attitude toward this dominion," he continued. "In order to combat pollution it will take a lot of political muscle, economical hardship, research and perhaps more recycling methods," Dr. Williams added.

Persons were asked to write letters to state and local authorities to generate group action, because there is "a definite gap between concern and the necessary action to get something done about our local water pollution problems," Dr. Williams concluded. Those serving on the Social Committee were Mrs. Clark Weersing, Mrs. David Paulson and Mrs.

Students will be charged a small fee for the courses, and they may sign up on a first come, first served basis.
