'Much misunder standing has developed between the two nations (U. S. and Ar gentina), mainly because of bi? businessmen interested only in matters of material wealth. "Argentina, Ihe largest coun try in South Arcerica, and The United States, largest in North America, are countries which , must understand and get along with one another. And the only way to do this effectively is by exchanging students and culture-minded people so that by talking to those, who we don't fully understand,' many prob lems will be clctred up."

After 25 years the president of the University has again assumed the role of ' a student. He's auditing a course in gen eral psychology under Dr. Nor man Garmezy, a visiting pro fessor from Duke University. Gray says he "finds it inter esting and stimulating. I'm pleased to have this kind of as sociation with students." . The UNC president majored in psychology as an undergrad uate, and was an honor student. A lot of things have happened in the science since he was a student; and, as he puts it, "There are a lot of facts that I have forgotten." Gray has been asked by the Psychology De partment to consider teaching a course next year, and it is in connection with this request that he's auditing the course. It's probably a good thing that he's just auditing the course, for with the new cut system in 1 education somehow."

Need less to say, the president is a busy man, and can't be in class every time it meets. He's al ready missed a couple of them. Gray sits unobtrusively at the back of the classroom, quietly taking notes. It's a rather large class, and the students don't seem to take any notice of him. Instructor Garmezy says "he's a good listener," and finds it enjoyable to have him in class. The professor says "His presence makes me improve the quality of my jokes, if not the quanti ty," and added, "he laughs at them. I find it stimuating to have him. Every instructor ought to have a college presi dent in his class." One of Gtray's fellow students remarked that he was "rather surprised to have him in the class," and was interested to know of Gray's interest in psy chology. Another summed it up simply, "We all gotta get an feet deep and 15 feet high. The marionettes themselves are three and on half feet tall. All are hand carved and ". . . possess a person ality of their own." said Wallace.

Fitch, ATO o o ttBCIO W ore Possibility Of Two Free Days, Though "'The provision of two class-free Saturdays each se mester may mean that addi tional days will have to be added to the sprino: term,' was the reply that Roy Hols- ten, assistant dean of student affairs, gave yesterday to 'an inquiry regarding the passage of a resolution by the stuelcnt Legislature calling for such holidays. "There is, however, a pos sibility that the two holidays may be squeezed into the curriculum of the spring semester without involving more days' being added I to the total," he added. Holsten was tne only university otncial who could be reached for com ment. Holsten said that he was en couraging the administration's Calendar Committee, the body wci king on the idea, to "give the proposal serious consideration and to work out the best solution possible. There are numerous factors which figure into the es- tablishment of holidays, including the fact that the University has a certain . quota of class days to meet," he said. Holsten said "the whole matter I is simply the fitting of .an availn able date into our calendar." The original resolution passed by the soions, with no opposition, had an amendment tacked on to it which said that "A report will be given back to the Legislature within two weeks after its pas- sage." In this manner, the group called for quick action on the pro-j posal by the administration. Duke Professor To Talk On U. S.

This was surprising in that the Student Party rammed through three of the planks out of an original four in its plat form without a University Par ty man cracking a word of dis sention. But when the session got ar ound to voting on the big bill that the UP wanted to see slide through, the bi-partisan board bill, a continous stream of SP and UP solons assumed and left the rostrum for a full hour and a half. During the course of this debate, only one SP man joined sides with the UP on the issue, and that was Tom Lambeth. As far as the speech that Tom ; Creasy gave to the group is concerned, the Legislators ap parently received it favorably for when the student body pre University' Of Oslo Sets Aids For Study In Summer Session The University of Oslo, Norway, will hold summer sessions this yea ! from July 2 to Aug. 13.

The address by Creasy hit ha:rd on a subject close to all students, and that is the matter of class cuts. He said "the fac ulty just isn't together on this idea of three cuts limitation. They, or some of them, have told me that they resent bein-f turned into clerks which must devote a lot of time to keeping up with excuses." Regarding the decision which decides on the legitimacy of various types of excuses, Creasy said that "the faculty can't de cide Which are the proper ex cuses and which are not. They have been haggling for some time on whether or not it is all right to excuse a student to go to a wedding."
