School Committee Differ on Technical Training Role
Chairman David A. Ellis of the Boston school committee challenges the Boston Children's Aid Society conclusion on juvenile delinquency. He supports more technical education and notes plans to open Brimmer school for boys over 14 with 100 students, while endorsing pre apprenticeship programs for under 14. The society urges supervision for working youths and more technical training in elementary schools to counter unengaging routines.
