VOCATION WORK IN SCHOOLS IS T0 START SOON New Supervisor Tells of Plans and Ol)_j.ectl\'es of Coming Term for starting voca- n the schools of 1 are being made by ettler, was recently Supe Vocational for the Territory. In dis- 1ssing plans for the work the Sup- said tional education Alask: A E this who isor the the purpose of work is to prepare for useful em- ployment, and to this end the in- struction given must be of a type to fulfill this purpose. Courses of study, equipment, time allotment in the educational prog n, and teach- ing personnel must all be shaped or trained to meet these ends “The instruction offered may take several forms, day school, part- time school, and evening school ‘The first is preparatc for en-| trance into the occupation; the sec- ond, training supplemental to regu- lar employment; and the third trade extension, again supplemental to daily employment Three Forms of Classes ‘These three forms of y be in giving major ation. In a ucation it is presumed students live on farn tive contact with r basic principles of tk farm projects, quite varied in their nature, as field crops, animal husba poultry raising, horticulture, In addition to the classroom struction in technical asses in used that t ve 1 life. The s training are be hich may ete in- agriculture, it is also necessary that some sort of project be carried out through the extent of the course. The same applies to training in home econom- jcs which, in addition to requiring certain standards of instruction and time allotment, also provides for the home project method of train- ing. “Trade and industrial education in classes requires that considerable time to be actually applied to shop work during the school day. This op work must be of a useful and practical nature, using the same meéthods as the trade requires, and the product of the shop must meet certain standards. The minimum time for shop work is fifteen clock hours per week, and in addition at Jeast five clock hours on definitely related subjects. “Evening trade extension and part-time classes do not have re- quirements for shop ti in fact much of that work will be of the informational ty tures, dem- onstration and discussion, the em- phasis being placed on the techn rial of the trade and not 1 cdueation is no! ir cluded in the program, as no pro- vision was made for that form of vocational education in the original Smith-Hughes Act. Plan: fcr Alaska Schools ‘““The rather limited appropria- tion wiil make it necessary to con- fine the work to the larger schools in incorporated districts. Plans under way to establish vocational classes in several of these schools where the local board is interested and wishes to cooperate. “With the beginning of the school year, at least one school will have clazses in Vocational . Agriculture and perhaps others will find it pos- sible to begin some of this wokr. Other schools will enlarge and modify their programs in Home Economics to meet vocational stan- dards, making allowance of increas- ed time for that work in the high schoel program. “In the field of Trade and Indus- trial Education, the General Indus- trial Shop is the type of program best fitted for the larger schools, This is the type of training found One Riggi One Choker Setter One W hist EXPERIENCED MEN ONLY!

Needs of Community | “It is not the intention of the Supervisor of Vocational Education Jto Insist on any school adopting | this work, but rather to aid and assist the local schools in develop- ing a program in one or more fields of vocational work best suited to the. needs’ of ‘the community. However, standards set in the Vocational Plan must be met if Federal mon- ey for reimbursement is to be ex- pected Courses study, equipment, teaching personnel are all included in these standards. In addition, the | raining ‘of teachers in vocational methods will be a part of the work of the Supervisor. It is hoped that as many of the schools as possible will avail them- lves of this opportunity of en- riching their curricula to meet the needs of those studemts who must early take their place in our eco- nomic society.” - \ opening of Both Boxers Claim Win; Court Disagrees There are some who say Sammy | Nelson won; there are others who v Freddy Mack was the victor. | City Magistrate A.
