THE DIALETTE
PAGE 3
THE of
LIGHTER SIDE James Moore
Have you heard? Christmas vacat
ion has been called off. Yes, the
faculty and a select number of stu
dents, three to be exact, voted and
decided to omit the Christmas vacat
ion and add the time onto the Easter
vacation. The fact that all the stu
dents were day students didn’t have
anything to do with the decision, I
was told.
There are several advantages to
the change WHAT? I don’t
know, but there must be some some
where! Oh well, all is not lost. Mon
treat has many things to offer dur
ing the Christmas season-like, the
FLU, FROST BITE, COLD ROOMS
etc. Be sure to have your presents
mailed to you early so you will have
them by Christmas; in fact, they
should have been mailed last week!
The Montreat Post Office closes Dec
ember 15th so Mrs. Solomon will
have enough time to visit her child
ren in Moosejaw, Alaska. TOO BAD!
ON THE SERIOUS SIDE: We
are glad to see Miss Smith back
after her operation and back to the
old grind of teaching math. We also
want to put out the welcome mat
for Mom Perkins, new house mother
over at good old Fellowship hall.Mom
is not new face to the Montreat
campus by a long shot—she was
here many moons ago keepin’ law
and order over at Fellowship when
it was a boys dorm; but it has been
a long time since she’s been here.
WELCOME MOM AND MISS
SMITH, WE’RE GLAD TO HAVE
YOU BOTH BACK!!
A long kept secret has gotten
out. I am really hesitant as to
whether I will spill the beans, ‘cause
I know I will be murderized when
this secret-keepin’ party reads her,
secret right here in BOLD type. Oh
well, what’s life without a few risks
now and then? Here goes—MOM
Hodge’s full name, it was discover
ed today, is ORPHIT MYRTLE
HORNBECK HODGE (I hope I
spelt that right.) There’s no need to
talk to Dean Kester, Mom, I’m pack
ing!!
It was brought to our attention
that several names were left out or
mispelled in our last issue, and since
this is the ouly column EVERYBODY
reads (Ho, Ho) I have been appoint
ed to write the retraction:
The omission of Nanci Berming-
ham’s name as being a new member
of the Merri-Macs. The mispelling
of Jeanne Clark’s name under the
homecoming pictur.e The mispelling
of Suzanne Swearingen’s name under
the cheerleader’s picture.
We are sincerely sorry girls!!!
Really we are!!!
It seems that the last two months
have been BIG months for crime in
and around Montreat. Last month
Mrs. Woody was jailed for stealing
two typewriters, and this month Mrs.
EAPm
NM.YEAR
IRISH, FRAN
FRED & TERRY
Mitchell has been charged with break
ing and entering; and contributing
to the deliqeuncy of minors.
On the night of Monday Nov. 27th,
Mrs. Mitchell asked a group of girls
if they would like to go for a swim.
After they agreed to go, the girls
were taken to In The Oaks, Episco
pal Conference Center, in Black
Mountain. When they arrived at In
The Oaks, Mrs. Mitchell tried to
open the door to the swimming pool
room. Finding it locked, she became
quite hostile. She went to the near
est window, which was two feet away,
and tore the screen off-threw the
window open and proceeded to
climb in. When she finally opened
the door there stood CAPTAIN
BIBLE. Mrs. Mitchell, seeing that
her plan had been foiled, began to
run. Within minutes CAPTAIN
BIBLE had captured and returned
her to Montreat where she is now
awaiting her upcoming trial.
After hearing of the incident,
Mr. Mitchell was quoted as, saying,
“When I met Grace, while climbing
the Andes Mountains, I never knew
it would turn out like this!”
Perhaps the frequent visite to
SHONEY’S corrupted her, Mr.
Mitchell.
The Holiest Car On Campus A-
ward this month, goes to Miss Anne
Rouzie, with Miss Bev Keith’s car
as runner-up.

Where's True
Beauty
Where does the true beauty of
women lie? This is a question that
has plagued man since the dawn of
time. Scholars have thought and
puzzled and come up with many dif
ferent answers. But recent research
has uncovered some new and refresh
ing ideas. Here is what the “men”
of Montreat - Anderson College have
to say.
Possibly the most common answer
was:
“True beauty lies in a woman’s
personality.” This was expressed by
Bob Barrett, Steve Gragg, Gary Tay
lor, Danny Daniel, Terry Grice, Van
Dotson, Paul Thrift, Bill Jones, Paul
Terwiliger and Bill Woody.
Less thoughtful ones were:
“True beauty lies in her heart.”
John Young
“In her face” Neil Wilkerson
“In her attitude” Johnny Gilbert
“In her eyes” John Schimmel
“In the way she makes you feel
like a man” Woody West
The most profound answers were
given after much thought:
Frank Glenn says “True beauty
lies in her pocketbook.” Fred Green
thinks “it’s between her face and her
figure.”
“It’s in her mouth,” says Neely
Barry
“No,” argues Everett Land, “It’s
in her hair.”
Doug VanBrookHoven almost
agrees and says, “it’s under her
hair.”
Bob Burgess decided “it lies in
her hips,”
But Bo Lowry solved the whole
controversy by telling us that “true
beauty in a woman lies from her feet
up.”
ULYSSES, THE SEARCH
The motion picture, “Ulysses” is
probably one of the most powerful
motion pictures that has been made
in the year 1967.
The motion picture is based on the
controvelsial best-seller by James
Joyce. It is the story of one man’s
search for human dignity. It if a
search which grips the audience and
causes most of them to become un
easy because they realize that this
picture is speaking for them.
In this story reality is brought
out more keenly than in any motion
picture that this reviewer has seen.
Most of he dialouge and action take
place in the minds of the characters
and are brought out through a
stream-of-consciousness technique.
In taking an overall look at the mot
ion picture this reviewer finds some
parts which were good but which
could have been better. For example,
the dialogue in the beginning was
quite hard to understand. This made
the audience incapable of compre
hending all that they should have.
The dialogue was raw in places
but when we deal with the human
minds as Joyce did we can not cen
sor our thoughts to make everything
sound nice.
“Ulysses” is the motion picture
which should be seen by the intelli
gent-minded adult and not the child
ish person who is only looking for
trash. It contains lines which will
haunt the viewer long after the movie
is ended.
“Ulysses” is a motion picture
which will cause much controversy
but in the end it comes down to
whether we want to accept reality or
try and make ourselves believe
something that actually it not the
truth.

especially sincere "thanks” for your patronage.
