Pinochle, iwhisl. Admission 50c. R s WhHY Need for Wider Vocational Training More than 50 per cent of the boys and girls leaving high school today must secure jobs only because of the help of friends or relatives and after five years at work earn an average of only $17.83 a week. Speaking from this experience, they declare that the high schools of the United States should provide more vocational training of a kind that would prepare students for business or industry. These conelusions are reached by Dr. Edward Landy, 30-year- old high ‘school principal® of Abington, Mass., who has just completed a survey of the rela- tionship between school and business under a grant from the General Education Board, a Rockefeller foundation. The, survey showed that not only do most high school gradu- ates need such help in getting jobs, but that one out of every six actually work for relatives or friends and that only three per cent were placed in jobs through their school itself. Questioned as to high school subjects which they thought proved of most actual value after graduation, more than a third named specific skill-zro- viding subjects in comumercial, agricultural and industrial fields. Next in importance, they said, comes English. Em- ployers stressed the need of more and better vocational training in reading, writing, spelling and artihmetic. Within five years after leav- ing high school, the survey re- vealed, 22 per cent of the work- ers left their first jobs because of undesirable pay or working conditions, and that about 25 per cent of them lost their first jobs because of slack business or ending of temporary jobs. Only -one per cent of those studied never obtained a job after five Years, and 93 per cent had at JeaSt six months work during the fifth year out. Most of the students, it was found, remain fairly steadily at the same occupations, at least for five years, and more than 90 per cent settled down in their own communities. Most common occupation for Top, boys learn tailoring, wocdworking, meat cutting. Below, Dr. Edward Landy. At right, girls learn retail sales and sewing. boys was that of sales clerk; next, semi-skilled work in man- ufacturing. Of the girls, 20 per cent did semi-skilled work in textile and jewelry manufac- turing. Other fields were: sdies clerks, 11.8 per cent; office clerks, 10 per cent; housemaids, 7 per cent; stenographers-typ- ists, 6 per cent; bookkeepers, 4.2 per cent; secretaries, 3.9 per cent, phone operators, 3 per cent. Sixty-three per cent of those studied were earning from $12 to $21 a week, with seven per cent earning under $9 a week and six per cent more than $30. Average weekly wage for the boys was $20.45; for the girls, $14.87. Summing up the results of his study, Dr. Landy comments: “Specific training of attitudes and habits in specific job-situa- tions, with opportunity for self- direction and self-control, seems to make for better adjustment on the actual job. It would seem desirable for the schools to pay considerable attention to the task of providing its school- leaving youth with at least inr itial job competence.” BARNEY GOOGLE SON,0H, 80N % | ANWMATCHA THNK !
