January, 1948 THE DIALETTE Page 3 Sports COLLEGE . . —A t h 1 e t i c Notes The new year which we all so joyfully helped ring in only a short while ago is not yet so old that we can’t add another res olution. After that wonderful va cation, we all felt like just lying down and lei-ting the rest of the. world go by last week; but now that we have recovered (almost, at least) from our fatigue and are m the mood for recreation again we should resolve to be beter sports than ever and even more loyal to our dear ole’ tribes than We were last year. After those hard days of rack- tog your brains and sweating through those horible exams which begin next week, you will undoubtedly be throughly ex hausted. Instead of cramming for more the next day, why not take 3 little time out for recreation? It will, I am sure, help you both physically and mentally. Don’t forget hiking. The dead- line for geting your points in tills time is January 27, so be sure to get them. The hiking club IS going to have a gay ole’ time st your picnic soon. If your tribe is playing indoor sports, be sure to go down and join in so you’ll get your points. Det s be better sports in every way throughout the year.

C. Phone 4301 High School Cagers Warm Up For ’48 Season Are you going out for basket ball? No? Why not? Do you think you are too short? Nonsense! Some of the best people who ever played basketball were short. You can learn to be as quick as lightning! That way, if you are a forward, get away from your guard and get two points for your team. If you are a guard, you can stop “your” forward from making a pass that would enable your opponents to get a basket. So everyone! Come on! Let’s go out for basketball! Remember that if all of you go out you will have a better team because there will be more to choose from. If you want your tribe to win, go out for basket ball! You should, by all means, keep on with your hiking. That way ;-/ou get points toward your “M” and when you get into the Hik ing Club, you can make special hikes. Then there is Indoor Sports. You get five points for each hour. Another way to work for your “M.” It is lots of fun, so try it! Argentine Ambassador Visits Montreat Dr. Oscar Ivanissevich, Argen tinian ambassador to the United States, spoke in Gaither Chapel Wednesday afternoon, January 7. Seated on the stage with him were his wife and son, Mr. Herb Sanders, State governor of Lions from Black Mountain; the Hon orable Hugh Mitchell, State Sen :’s ESSO SERVICE Tires, Tubes, and Batteries DIAL 2491 BLACK MOUNTAIN ator from North Carolina; Jane Bachman, and Dr. McGregor. Dr. Ivanissevich’s appearance at Mon treat was sponsored by the CCUN. The ambassador spoke inform ally contrasting the educational systems of North and South America, and outlining briefly Argentinian methods of school ing. One of the great differences is the emphasis placed on theory in Argentina, contrasted to the practicality and student—partici pation methods of North America. After Dr. Ivanissevich had spoken, the audience were en couraged to ask questions. When someone asked whether Latin and Greek were taught in the schools of Argentina, Dr. Ivanis sevich threw up his hands in a gesture of mock despair with “But life is so short!” and much to everyone’s amusement, patted his son William and said, “This poor boy has had six years of Latin!” At the close of the ambassa dor’s talk, those who wished to, spoke personally with the mem bers of the party.
