After the welcoming address, given by the Hon- orable Roy A. Taylor, Mr. Woodrow W. Jones recognized the Appalachian Regional Commission and introduced Federal Co-Chairman John Swee- ney, the principal speaker. Previously, Asheville-Buncombe Technical Institute trained students mainly for employment in manufacturing concerns. With the addition of the hotel-motel complex, we will now be able to serve the fast-growing tourist industry. A two- year, seven-quarter curriculum in hotel-motel management and chefs ' training will teach stu- dents food preparation and service to guests. Upon successful completion of either course, graduates will receive the Associate Degree of Applied Science. The new complex will contain four kitchens equipped for every phase of food preparation, a small dining room seating approximately two hundred and fifty persons, fourteen motel-hotel rooms, plus a typical office and check-in counter. Only participants in institution- sponsored re- gional seminars and extension classes will uti- lize these facilities as guests. Students will prac- tice chefs ' training in the cafeteria and kitchens. Also housed in the D Building will be the school library and fifteen classrooms, in which fourteen business courses will be offered. Fi- nanced by Vocational Act, Appalachian, and State funds, the complex will have an area of 40,000 square feet. Several major manufacturing con- cerns will furnish the rooms, and the equipment will be valued at $100,000. Mr. John Sweeney, Co-Chairman, Appalachian Regional Commission, Mr . Roy A.
