I I Mr. Epplcy, Mr. Rader, Mr. Roberts, Mr. Clemons VCDCATIQNAL All out for national defense is the by-word of the vocational shop. The shop is one of the few that has a 24-hour training schedule. Besides classes for juniors and sen- iors, defense courses for business men and laborers are offered. The courses were be- gun in March, 1940, by the order of defense headquarters in Washington, D. C. Machine shop is taught by Mr. Kenneth Clemons, Mr. Lawrence Eppley, and Mr. Ar- chie Rader, Burnham faculty members, and by Mr. William Boogher and Mr. Darwin C. jones. Welding classes are under the supervision of three town men, Mr.Iames Stack- house, Mr. Clyde Comstock, and Mr. I. Bryant. Automotive classes are instructed by Mr. Lawrence Eppley, Mr. Arnold Koester, and Mr. Ezra Spiegel. Machine shop and automotive shop are under Smith-Hughes Training. Related sub- jects include mathematics, sciences, and blueprint reading. A course may be completed in 12 weeks, or 360 hours, depending upon the individual. Of the 500 students already trained, 90 per cent have been placed. Most of the success of this department, which owns machinery worth S20,000, is due to the untiring efforts of Mr. W. R. Roberts, coordinator and national defense supervisor. Mr. Roberts received his college education at Toledo University, Wittenberg, Cincinnati, and Ohio State University. Mr. Eppley, recently married, has been here two years. He attended Toledo Univer- sity.
