First Come Fundamental Modern industry is crying for expert help- ers, but there is no time for the old-fashioned methods for training workers by apprentice- ship. By the time one has spent seven years to learn a trade, so many new trades will have appeared his job could be obsolete. Instead, high schools and trade schools are concen- trating on teaching fundamentals, leaving it up to industry to bring the young workers up to date in their special fields of interest. Central High offers fundamental training in electronics, mechanical drawing, radio, gen- eral shop, and auto shop. Students who want more specialization, such as in woodwork, metal shop, auto body and painting may enter the PUHS industrial arts school where millions of dollars in equipment await their study. Central's program is adequate for those who want to check their aptitude in mechanical fields or in one of the related vocational areas. 'lk l38
