Artisans Workshop Planned
The University of North Carolina at
Asheville will conduct a series of four
workshops for mountain artisans
beginning on Oct. 1.
"Business Skills for Artists and
Crafters" is designed to help craft
smen hone their business skills, ac
cording to Betty Kdan, the executive
director of High Country Crafters.
"A lot of craftsmen nurture their
creative talents and overlook the
things that go into running a business.
They almost feel that they com
promise their creative ability if they
think about running a business."
Kdan says.
The workshops will be held on Oct.
1 and 8 and in February of next year.
The Oct. 1 session will examine the
pros and cons of working alone, how
to deal with risk and rejection and
how to deal with success.
On Oct. 8, the workshop will cover
time management, planning and
organization and how to remain
creative while working at full speed.
The February, 1985 sessions will deal
with bookeeping and tax considera
tions.
The October workshops will be held
from 7 until 9:90 p.m. in Room 312 of
the Owen Art-Management Building
on the UNC-A campus. Cost is $10 fa
each session.
To register, call 258-6558 or stop in
at High Country Grafters on Haywood
Street in Asheville.

Computer Link
Could Bring Jobs
Linking the University of North
Carolina at Asheville to the
Microelectronics Center of North
Carolina may attract new industries
to Western North Carolina, according
to an official at the Research
Triangle facility.
The Appalachian Regional Com
mission (ARC) has announced an
$83, M2 grant to fund a feasibility
study of the proposed link. The ARC
funds will be matched by a $180,000
state grant.
Alan Blatecky, manager of com
munications services at the
Microelectronic Center, will direct
the study. Preliminary work has
begun and the study is expected to be
completed early next year.
The study will determine the cost
and equipment needed to create a
microwave link between UNC
Asheville and the Microelectronic
Center network. North Carolina State
University, UNC-Charlotte and UNC
Chapel Hill are in the network
presently, along with North Carolina
A and T and Duke University.
Finding a clear line of sight bet
ween the Research Triangle and
Asheville will be one problem ad
dressed by the study, Blatecky said
The network currently employs N.C.
Highway Patrol microwave tower to
transmit signals The study will
determine which of these towers can
help carry a signal to Asheville and
whether new towers will have to be
constructed.
The proposed link would create two
videoconference channels.
The link would allow UNC-A to
receive and transmit live broadcasts
of courses to other schools in the six
campus network.
Blatecky said the proposed link
would be especially helpful in attrac
ting new industry to WNC because it
would allow microelectronics
research to be carried out at UNC-A
by drawing on resources at the
Research Triangle.
The EPA has fined a Chicago pesticide manufacturer $450,000 for marketing
a worthless product that supposedly repelled rats, mice and roaches with
painful high-frequency sound waves, reports National Wildlife magazine. One
restaurant owner said he'd been bilked when he saw two roaches mating in the
trap.
