Industrial Electricity Training Leads To Electrical Apprenticeships Mr. Gumbarvic, Bill Dorsal, Harold Boully, and Jose Fernandez discuss outlet wiring. 'Yi Switches and power relays- the heartbeat of Industrial Electricity. William Russell has many opportunities to practice outlet wiring. Patience and steady nerves are two necessary attributes for the student of Industrial Electricity. Aside from learning the mechani- cal theory of electrical construc- tion, and the proper care and use of electrical instruments, this is one field in which an individual devel- ops a great respect for the power of electricity. Once thoroughly schooled in elec- trical theory, the advanced student works independently of the in- structor. The student who can complete this course may obtain an electrical apprenticeship. The Industrial Electrician must work where the job is . . . out doors, in the rain, inthe cold etc. 161

Machines In Action Daily Lay-out man, set-up man, and sur- face grinder - this is the jargon of the Machine Shop. More than ever, people are needed in this field. With the establishment of can companies, tool and dye shops, ship building companies, mines and public utility operations, the machinist has a wide variety of jobs to choose from. He may choose to be a machine shop ap- prentice after graduation, a lathe operator, a shaper operator, or any one of a number of machinist vo- cations depending upon his skill and dependability. The value of design and appre- ciation of material are just a few of the skills and theories discussed in Mr. Kimball's Machine Shop. Mr. Eckert and Mr. Hampton also su- pervise and instruct the work of many students in operating ma- chines and using cutting tools. Above all, a true respect for all mechanical devices is instilled in the mind of each student. 4 is ii Future Machinists in class. 162 ff2E'f,g!'K Mr. Kimball points out proper repair and maintenance of equipment.
