High School are shown with the new dual oontrol auto presented to the school last week by the Critchfield Chevrolet Company of Tecumseh. Four boys and eight girls are registered. Each student will spend 20 hours in the car and 30 in the olassroom. Five pamphlet text books are used and students will be given regular tests. Classroom instruction is in charge of Supt. A. V. Grass. Instruction in the car is given by Urban Wendorff, who took a special driver-training teachers course at Minneapolis. The car is the first to be delivered in Nebraska under the plan offered in oo-operation with the American Automobile Association.—World-Herald News Service Photo.
