May Broaden Training At State Boys' School
Senator A M McColl chair of the state board of control says plans to enlarge vocational training at the state training school for boys Eldora include expanding trades taught and adding one or two new ones. Current courses cover printing carpentry shoemaking harnessmaking farming and tailoring. Talks with the federal government aim for a shared expense arrangement. No new buildings needed but machinery and instructors may increase. An inspection trip to Elmira showed 30 to 40 boys learning barbering, which may not receive federal funds, making a barber college unlikely here.
