In Elyria a mix of views emerged on a proposed vocational school and a $149,000 grant toward a $270,000 project. Most interviewees saw value in training for industry though some questioned the cost and timing, and debate continued over how the facility would be funded and operated.
A speaker argues that vocational training is essential for boys and that factory work suits country youths, while cautioning against excessive building costs. He cites Ashtabula’s one story 100 by 70 foot model built recently for about 270000 as a benchmark, noting Elyria could require less. League of Women Voters meeting discusses separating classes and labor costs while studying other districts. A separate item reports a police station call about erroneous ad column vandalism in Gallary Herald and a move in Connecticut to hire women for track work on grade crossings due to wartime policy and labor shortages.
Businessmen engineers and officials discuss a proposed $75,600 to $80,000 five to story industrial arts style building for a vocational program. Opinions vary on construction costs bond taxes and whether the project will meet industry needs or be better delayed or scaled.
