NOVEMBER 16. 1978/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/PAGE 3 Glass '78 glass exhibits impress crowds by J.M. I KINKS Staff Writer "North Carolina Glass '78" is by far the most impressive production of the biennial invitational glass exhibitions that began here in 1974. Glassblowing is a high order of craft/artistry and the 86 pieces by 10 regional artists on display in Belk Art Gallery through November 17 (Friday) are a true attestation. This is the most recent result of "The Studio Movement" begun by Harvey K. Littleton of Spruce Pines and Dominick Labino at a seminar at the Toledo, Ohio Museum of Art in 1962. The studio movement has been quite successful and simply means that glass can be made in a studio with one person as both designer and craftsman. Glass, such as this, made by hand on a blowing iron, is called "free blown" or "offhand." The artists are William Bernstein, Jak Brewer, Dale Brownscombe (the only native Tarheel), Fritz Dreisbach, Gilbert C. Johnson, Robert Levin, Harvey K. Littleton, David Nichols (WCU artist-in-residence), John Nygren and Mark Peiser. Each artist is a master of glass with each piece seeming to be a triumph of its own unique form of character. Together they form another world of clear, sharp creativity. Johnson's dreamy, radiant veils have to be experienced individually and from different angles. Dreisbach's cones and latticino vases with handles can 'become drab, but don't miss his extraordinary white glass farm and crystal vases in the UC's Chelsea Gallery. o o -c eu v e 9* o M i Mondale speaks in Asheville Vice President Walter F. Mondale will speak November 17 in Asheville at the Appalachian Regional Commission's three day conference on children and the family. Interested participants can view highlights of the conference via satellite from 12:45 to 2:30 p.m. in room 129-130 of the Vocational Building on the campus of Southwestern Technical Institute in Sylva. The conference, whose theme is "Raising a New Generaion in Appalachia," will explore ways and means of equipping the children of the region for the new opportunities available to them as a result of the steadily improving economic conditions in Appalachia. Vice President Mondale took a leading role in the area of family concerns during his career in the United States Senate. As a member of the Senate Committee on Labor and Public Welfare, he chaired the Subcommittee on Children and Youth and held an extensive series of hearings on the issues and problems of American family life. Also attending the conference will be governors of the Appalachian States, ARC States' Cochairman, Governor James B. Hunt, Jr. ARC Federal Cochairman Robert W. Scott, and experts in child care and development, who will comprise four conference panels each leading the discussion of a distinct aspect of child development. the world at a glance The World at a Glance is compiled from the wires of United Press International.

A Museum spokeswoman says Dr. Mead knew she had cancer for the past year and worked right up until the time she entered the hospital. WASHINGTON—The Federal Reserve Board says the nation's industrial production rose five-tenths of one percent last month. That's a pace viewed as consistent with the Administration's moderate economic growth target for the remiander of the year. October output of the nation's mines, factories, and utilities was identical to September's gain. Much of the October increase was attributed to sharp jumps in both automobile and coal production. PENNSYLVANIA—Spokesmen for some of the nation's top steel firms say the strike by independent steel haulers has started to curtail steel shipments. The strike is now in its sixth day and more violence was reported during yesterday in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Their walkout was triggered by Tuesday's cable car accident that injured 13 people. JOPLIN, MISSOURI—The workman trapped for 82 hours in the rubble of a collapsed hotel in Joplin said yesterday that he prayed a lot and never gave up hope. Alfred Summers spoke with reporters from his hospital bed. Summers, dug out of the rubble Tuesday, said that he is still shook ::p and tired but otherwise, "I'm doing pretty gecd.

Hosni Mobarak, en route to Washington to deliver a letter from President Sadat to President Carter, told reporters in Paris that he has no new proposals. MOSCOW—A delegation of U.S. Senators held talks in Moscow yesterday with Soviet officials on the proposed Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty and a wide spectrum of world problems. Senator Abraham Ribicoff, who heads the delegation, appealed for Soviet help in the Mideast peace efforts, but was told the U.S. should expect no help from the Russians. BEIRUT—Christian militiamen and Syrian forces traded heavy fire in downtown Beirut and its southeast suburbs yesterday. Six people were killed in the heaviest fighting since a cease-fire in mid October. IRAN—American oil experts say most of Iran's oil workers have returned to work after an anti-government strike but they say tension still runs high in the country's important petroleum industry. WASHINGTON—Investigators addressed a key question in the Martin Luther King assassination yesterday telling the House Assassinations Committee that James Earl Ray apparently robbed banks to finance his flight from the country after the murder. WASHINGTON—The government has temporarily cut off federal funds for Psychosurgery, brain surgery used to eliminate severe mental illness. The Department of Health, Education and Welfare Secretary Joseph Califano says he wants to make sure that such operations are preformed only when necessary. TANZANIA—The Tanzanian government says 10,000 people are missing behind Ugandan lines in Northwestern Tanzania and expressed fear that many were killed during Uganda's two-week occupation. Ugandan President Idi Amin said yesterday the war was over and diplomatic sources said the bulk of his army has withdrawn from occupied territory. PEKING—Radio Peking announced yesterday that China has decided to exonerate hundreds of thousands or persons persecuted in the late Chairman Mao's anti-rightist campaign of 1957. EGYPT—A committee of experts has visited the monastery in Egypt which some Monks believe is the final resting place of John the Baptist and the Prophet Elisha. No immediate judgement on the claims were made by the experts. RICHMOND—The Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond yesterday heard an appeal of Frank Snepp's conviction for writing a book about the American Evacuation of South Vietnam without getting CIA clearance. A lawyer for the former CIA officer will argue that no secrets were betrayed in the volume. MARQUETTE—Michigan State Police and authorities in the upper peninsula are searching through the woods 45 miles Northwest of Marquette for a missing flier. A Minnesota Air National Guard Jet crashed and exploded Tuesday night. The pilot ejected safely but a second crewman is still missing. WASHINGTON—King Hassan of Morocco and Presi dent Carter were expected to issue a joint statement at the conclusion of their two day talks yesterday. Tuesday's discussions centered on the Middle East. Yesterday, the two men covered African affairs and a Moroccan request for American weapons. ST. LOUIS—Mechanics for the bi-state transit system have set up picket lines at bus garages in St. Louis in defiance of a court order. For the second day drivers refused to cross the picket lines forcing commuters to find another way to work or school.
