1 tereStS and capacities will be dis covered, consumer knowledge will be gained, and many simple tool skills learned. Experiences in many types of activities together with intelli- gent guidance on the part of voca- tional counSelors should enable the student to select some one field in which he will work in the high school grades following.
 In the eleventh and twelfth years of the high school, training for; vocational needs would be broadly specialized Basic tool Skills in many occupations would be taught through practical work in well equipped shops; business procedures and basic office skills and practices taught in business laboratories; and merchant diSing and sales methods learned through study and life situations. This education in the high school is not trade education. Trade edu- cation, according to the State De- partment of Education, is training for a high degree of skill in a specific field and should be available only to those who have shown a high degree of aptitude for it. Un- der no consideration should the high school program for vocat tional training be 8 substitute for it.

 Each girl, on graduat ting from high school, should possess some skill that will allow her to gain entry to some remunerative field. F1inda- mental skills in retailing, merchan- dising, business and office practices, practical nursing, child care, and other fields commonly open to women should be imparted in the secondary schools.
 The problem of the boy or girl who leaves school for some reason or other before completion of the regular school program is not neg lected by the report. These young people must be provided with some l skills which will allow them to enter employment immediately on leaving school. The State Department rec ommends that every effort be made through the existing facilities of the schools to prepare these students for immediate induction into gain- ful activity and to provide facilities for further training or retraining when necessary.

Borough Chief
 Not Speaking .AbOut'ExpOse'
Startling" Evidence Ru- mOred As Probe of LOt-
 tery Is Continued

Chief of Police John J. Gormley, of Naugatuck, to- day declined to comment on a statement attributed to him that he has uncovered evidence of a startling na- ture" in connection with the lottery sponsored by the Cru Sader Post, Veterans of For eign Wars, and indicated that his disclosure will not be made until the accused are brought to trial.
 Chief Gormley said, however, that two Sheriffs from Duchess county, New York, had found no connection whatsoever between the Naugatuck lottery and an irregular football pool in their county. The two officials were present yesterday when Judge Alfred 0. Baldwin, of the superior court here, denied mo- tions for reducing the bonds of 6uCAdO1A oAOWAA, DO, O4 octCO11, IN. Y., and Louis Goldsmith, of Brook lyn, N. Y, who are held in $10,OOO each at the New Haven county jail.
 States Attorney William B. Fitz- gerald was occupied today trying a civil case in the court of common pleas, but he indicated at the noon recess that the state is now concen- trating on experiencing Jack Gold smith, of Brooklyn, and Bert San- ders, of Beacon, for whom bench warrants were issued Friday. He said there was nothing new for pub ication.
 The states attorney yesterday objected to reducing the bonds of Brown and Goldsmith, and told the court that the case involved not only violations of the lottery laws, but contained a distinct element of fraud. Atty. Edward Mascolo, coun- sel for Brown, and Attorney Israel Jacobs, counsel for Goldsmith, asked the reductions on the ground that the two men faced their first crim- inal charges and would have to be confined in jail until January un- less they obtained substantial re- auctions. Both men testified in their own behalf. Judge Baldwin however, said the bonds appeared reasonable to him in the light of the charges.
