709 LOCAL MEN BACK IN SCHOOL

FOR JOB STUDIES

Classes Formed Rapidly; . ‘Some Sent to Manual And Attucks.

By LEO DAUGHERTY

- Men over 18 in Indianapolis—700{| strong—went to school today to be- || craftsmen to meet the||

come skille demand for man power voiced by local factories. . The men, the . majority between 20 and 35, registered yesterday for

the industrial training school, one

of the first (if not/the first) in the country. | They assembled in the stands of Tech’s gymnasium, home of the sec-

tional basketball tournament. The atmosphere was a little different than that which accompanies the

hardwood classic.

They wore overalls or other work- |

fhg garb, prepared to ready themselves for jobs essential to increasing production for the national defense program. , ay 100 Sent to Manual +The roll was called as in an ordinary classrodm. There were too many students to be accommodated. To Tech’s shops there were assigned 350. Another 100 were sent to Manual High School. More than 50 will train at Crispus Attucks. " There still may be a chance for some of the disappointed ones, be-. cause those accepted must pass an achievement test this week to /insure themselves places in the classes. The men will study a six-weeks course, six hours a day. Three hours are devoted to machine shop practice, one hour to blue print reading, ‘one hour to reading precision ingtruments, such as gauges, and another hour to arithmetic. Fractions Are Stressed - The arithmetic instruction stresses fractions, the same old fractions which stumped these men when they were kids. But fractions must pe learned, the schoolmen say, because of the exactness which is demanded in the modern factory. © The men won't put out products for the market, but they’ll complete each job just as it’ is done in a factory. And whilé men far beyond the school age took over the campus, youngsters were being enrolled in regular summer ‘high school courses, and another group of 150 boys between 18 and 24 were being assigned to NYA training. The high school classes were under way today with the largest enrollment in history. ~- Shortridge .had the largest en-~-rollment in regular classes with 575 high school pupils and 135 elementary music pupils. 433 Enroll at Tech Tech had 345 high school pupils and 88 elementary school pupils. There was a class of 125 NYA . youths at Tech taking an industrial training course which will continue for nine weeks. Summer enrollment ‘at Crispus Attucks was 102. Washington High School, having summer classes for ‘the first time, enrolled 85. Manual High School had 54 high school pupils and 81 elementary pupils in band and orchestra work.

County and township officials claim to. have solved the riddle of

months: with no money. They simply will ask the "merchants who furnish relief com-

payment of relief bills. When the suits for payment clear the courts, the townships can go to the County and say: “Here, there's a judgment against us.” Then, according to the plan, the County will have the necessary legal excuse to float some refunding bonds to pay judgments. Necessity for the emergency measure arose last week when a proposed $550,000 bond issue to pay four months’ relief costs in Center and Wayne Townships was killed by action of 173 remonstrators, one more
