Earth-Moving Equipment School
Nears Finish Of First Week
Large pieces of earth-moving
equipment are the tools of prac
tical instruction in the 44th Heavy
Equipment Operators Training
School of the Engineering Exten
sion Service. The school began
Monday and will continue for four
weeks, said Robert O. Boriskie,
information representative.
“There are numerous heavy
equipment schools all over the
U.S., but most of them are small
operations which are able to offer
little or no actual eqiupment oper
ation, Ernest A. Wontrcek, ad
ministrative assistant, said.
“Our school is one of four lead
ing institutions which can offer
extensive training in the opera
tion of heavy earthmoving equip
ment. Two of the others are oper
ated by the U. S. Army.”
Classroom instructions are con
ducted on the campus, and equip
ment operations are held in train
ing area near Easterwood Airport.
Students from all over the nation |
receive operation and maintainence
instructions.
Over 50 pieces of equipment such
as tractors, graders, dozers and
cranes are owned by the Engineer
ing Extension Service with which
to give its students at least 100
hours of machine operation. Ori
ginally, leading manufacturers
loaned pieces of equipment to the
training school, but it now buys
the pieces from Army surplus
sales.
A. L. Kramer is the school’s
chief instructor, and he heads a
staff of four other instructors.
They are Alvin Jones, Thomas
Craig, LaRue Jones and Charlie
Brannan. The instructors were re
cruited directly from the construc
tion industry.
Kramer also coordinates a simi
lar school which is designed to
teach county road agencies the
methods of operation and main
tenance of road construction mac
hinery. These courses are held off
| the campus in various parts of the
state.
