Mars Hill Students
Compete With Weather
MARS HILL - Among the
activities Ming the wrath of I
winter'* fierceness w Mars i
IB11 Colleges Continuing i
Education Program <9EP).
Designed to bring college level i
courier to adults in Western I
North Carolina, the evening \
program ha* been feeling the i
pinch of curtailed evening ,
activities in several areas. I
The latest source of their
frustration has been the
closing of the First Baptist
Church in Ashevilie to most
evening activities. Heated by
natural gas, the church is
trying to comply with
President Carter's request to
conserve energy and this type
of fuel. CEP classes which
have been meeting there have
been temporarily moved to the
Mars Hill campus.
Both public and private
institutions in the mountain
counties have provided
meeting rooms for the adult ^
education program. However,
as the intense cold has con
tinued, some of the
organizations have had to
abbreviate their activities, .
especially in the evenings.

KENNY J. SMITH of Mar- i
shall, a 1976 graduate of
Madison High School, enlisted |
in the armed forces July 13,
1976. He spent 12 weeks at Fort
Sill, Okla., in basic training
and AIT. He was then assigned
to the famous second Armored
Division, "Hell On Wheels" at
Fort Hood, Tex. He will go to
Germany in August for six
months duty and then return to
Fort Hood for permanent duty.
Other problems, as well,
have plagued the CEP
?tudenta such aa travel on icy
roada.
For moat, however, con
tinuing their education haa
been important enough for
them to brave travel on
lometimee dangeroua roada
and to endure the alow but

[erect in physical education
was to take a double major,
which meant at least one,
probably two more years of
school on the undergraduate
level."
The new recreation major
has three separate interest
areas or "triple tracks" in the
academician's jargon. The
first is church recreation and
will prepare students to work
in churches, as a youth
director, for example. Classes
From the religion department
are mandatory and religion
majors can double major with
greater facility than before.
The second "track" is en
vironmental recreation and is
For the student who wishes to
work outdoors. This "track"
includes such professions as
Forestry, environmental
control, and camping.
The third "track" is com
munity recreation and
prepares students for work in
adult and youth recreation
programs such as the YWCA
and YMCA, city and county
parks and recreation
programs, and scouting.
Completion of the un
dergraduate program at Mars
Hill will, of course, enhance
job opportunities; however,
the Mars Hill graduate will
also be prepared for post
graduate study for degrees in
forestry, physical therapy,
recreation, and teaching.
The new courses are not
easy, according to Phillips, but
they do exemplify Mars Hill's
efforts to find places where
people are needed in areas
where students have ex
pressed interest and to offer
courses to satisfy both.

Patriots Felled By Sylva-Webster
(Continued from Page 3)
breaking the backbone of
Madison's offense. The
Patriot's frustration allowed
the Eaales to increase their
lead and win 75-63.
Todd McCormick and
Jimmy Davis sank 18 and 16
points, respectively, and
David Lee chipped in 10 points
for Madison. Tom Bryson and
Steve Streater had 20 apiece
forSylva-Webster.
Any team that played as bad
as Madison's girls don't
deserve to win, and the
Patriots didn't get any in
justice as Sylva-Webster
clobbered them 55-29. The
second half spelled doom for
Madison when everything
seemed to go wrong.

JAYVEE BOYS: Sylva Wabstar, 51 44.
The Patriots played pretty
well in the opening period.
However, they passed up
many scoring opportunities
through nothing but mental
mistakes The Patriot defense
did keep the Eagles under
control, and Madison claimed
a 10-4 first period lead.
Both teams were guilty of
playing bad basketball in the
second quarter. The Eagles
and Patriots were both making
turnover after turnover, but
neither team could take ad
vantage. Madison's offense
played very poorly as they
mined at least a half dozen
layups during the quarer. The
Patriots still clung to a 21-15
lead at the interm ission.
The Patriots played like a
bunch of fifth graders in the
second half. They couldn't do
anything right. Even a team as
bad as Sylva-Webater couldn't
let a break like that go by. The
Eagles took the lead at 25-23
with 5:01 remaining in the
third period, and it was
downhill from there. Sylva
Webster led 35-25 at the end of
the third period, and outscored
Madison 20-4 again in the
fourth quarter to almost
double the score after being
behind at half time.
Carlene Gunter had 13
points, Peggy Rice 7, and
Beverly Bruce 6 as they
combined to score 28 of the
Patriots 29 points. Pam
McMahan popped in 20 points
for the Eagles.

Madison didn't get any breaks,
but they played well con

Patriots were trailing 57-S8
going to the fourth quarter.
The two teams played pretty
evenly in the final period.
Madison was being
outrebounded, but the girls
never completely gave up. The
Patriots finished the season
with a 2-12 conference mark

Madison enjoyed a balanced
scoring attack with Carlene

each. Peggy Rice scored only
five points but gave one of her
best defensive performances
of the year.

WATCH FOR COLOR
IN SPRING FASHIONS?
As spring fashions and
seamstresses begin to start
remember that color ia usually
the flnt thing people notice. In
order to take advantage of its
importance, remember that
there are two main groups to
choose from: warm colors
such as red and yellow; and
cool colors such as blue and
The right color choice can
make you appear heavier or
lighter. Cool, dark, or dull
colors have a retreating effect'
and make the wearer appear
smaller. Warm, strong, or
light colors make the wearer
appear larger.
In order to appear shorter
use contrasting colors for tops
and bottoms. To appear taller
wear one color outfits
Take off a few pounds this
spring as you prepare your
spring wardrobe by wisely
selecting your colors. Bright
colors should remain accents
in small areas such as
neckties, scarves, belts, etc., if
you are a little overweight.
