Out-of-School Men May Learn
National Defense Trades at A. & M.
The A. & M. mechanical engi-.
neering department, in cooperation
with the state department of in
dustrial education, will offer a
special course in machine shop for
young men who want to prepare
themselves for jobs in national de
fense industries.
The federal government, through
the industrial education services of
the states, has made available
funds for training out-of-school
youth for occupations in industries
which have contracts for national
defense materials. The A. & M.
mechanical engineering department
has one of the largest and most
complete machine shops of any
school in the south for training
men for industry and has offered
its services. The federal govern
ment will pay the complete cost of
the training and has specified re
quirements for those who enroll.
This particular class will be for
any young men who are not now
in school who have reached the
age of 17 but not the age of 25.
They must have completed the com
mon schools and should have had
some high school work. They must
be mentally able to learn the com
putations, calculations, and blue
print reading required in a machine
shop and physically able to do the
work.
Any young man interested in
learning this work should register
at once with the Texas State Em
ployment Service in the new Eagle
Printing Company Building at 120
East 26th Street, Bryan, Texas. It
will be the responsibility of this
office to try to find employment
for the young men as soon as they
are employable.
The class will start as soon as
25 qualified young men have regis
tered. It will run from 3 to 10 p.
m., five days each week until July
1, 1941.

hours of the show free of charge.
The motion picture distributors
have lent the selected comedies

is made up of comedy and musical
shorts. The six include a Donald
Duck Comedy, a Merrie Melody
A Warner Brothers 2-reel techni
color musical, a Universal 2-reel
musical, a Three Stooges comedy,
and a 1-reel musical. The selec
tions were made to give variety
and entertainment to those who
witness the showing.
The last showing of the feature
regularly playing at the Campus
will start at 3 o’clock each day.
This showing will be over so that
the benefit show may be run at the
specified time. The benefit show
will not be run Sunday afternoon
but will begin again Monday.
Tickets for the show are avail
able from first-sergeants and pro
ject house managers for students
on the campus. They are also avail

Structural Drafting
Course Starts April 15
In the interests of National De
fense, the U. S. Office of Educa
tion has authorized the A. & M.
college to make plans for an En
gineering Defense Training Course
in Structural Drafting. The cours
es will begin about April 15 and
will run for 12 weeks.
The instruction offered is des
igned to train men for positions as
draftsmen in industry and to qual
ify them for similar positions un
der Federal Civil Service. Qual
ifications for admission are two and
one-half years of an engineering
school course, including Elementary
Mechanics and Strength of Mater
ials.
The cost of the course to the
student will be only the cost of
books, drafting materials and main
tenance. The students will be hous
ed in dormitories and will take
their meals at the mess hall. They
may thus obtain room, board and
laundry for the nominal sum of
$25 per month.

Engineering Department for fur-
thur information concerning en
