0. S. Y. DEFENSE TRAINING SCHOOL At the completion of the Farm Shop, Stockbridge Valley High School was given the opportunity to conduct an 0.S.Y. Defense Training School, in the evening for the out of school, farm youths of the area. Many of the young men of the area responded to the notices sent out, concerning the possibilities of such a school. As a result of the in- terest shown by the young men the O.S.Y. Defense School started February 9, 1942. Two ten week courses were offered. The first one being for Auto Mechanics, including the operations, care, and repair of tractors, trucks and automobiles. At the conclusion of the first course on April 19, the second course in Metal Work began, including welding, tempering, drilling, shaping and machinery repair. The periods of instructions were from 7:30 until 10:30 P.M., Monday through Friday. Mr. Fred Speer of Vernon and Mr. Hugh Griffin of lunnsville were the instructors. Additional equipment needed to carry on the courses was purchased from the 0.S.Y. funds. The principal equipment purchased was a complete set of auto and tractor mechanic tools, a blacksmiths forge. an oxyacetylene outfit and a metal lathe. During the continuation of the courses several tractors and many pieces of farm machinery have been repaired. We feel sure that the young msn of the area who have participated in the courses given, will be better qualified to serve agriculture as it becomes increasingly mechanized. Approximately fifteen young men will receive certificates for satisfactorily completing both courses. hz J
