The drift of Waterbury high school students to the technical schools Is symptomatic of c trerd that has become national in scope pr. Thomas J. Conepon, superinteE l. ent of schools, told the DemocrG [ yesterday, The statement wa apropos of 6 report submitted by tEe superintenden to the school board Monday night, in which 1t was re. vealed that applications for admis- sion to the freshman class at Leav- enworth exceeded those for Crosby and Wilby high schools by nearly two hundred
 The tide of the times is in the d. rection of technological prepared ness, Signs throughout the nation point to an increased interest in the technical studies; in carpentry, drafting, machine shop practice, and the allied trades, pr, Condon explained, The sudden eagerness to take advantage of the facilities available for these studies may be attributed to the national emer- gency, and to the need for hasty but effective rearmament. It is a clear reflection Of the current eco- homie situation.
 With regard to the recent appro- priation of $250000 authorized by the state trade school in Water- bury, Dr, Condon Is of the opinion that the city will take immediate measures to bring about the de- sired result.
 The David Porter trust fund which by now is in the neighbor- hood of $i5O,O00, with interest acc crued, provides for the construction by the city of g boys and girls technical school. It furnishes land located on Meriden road near East Main street as well, and this site is under consideration for the pro- posed trade school.
 However, before either the money or the land can be used, it will be necessary for the city to obtain per- mission for their use from court, presumably superior court The Porter will make no outright reference to trade school" in the present-day connotation, because without doubt, at the time 1t was drawn up such schools did not exist Consequently, what remains is for the city to seek an interpretation of the will from the court.
 The city has been further author ized to float bond issue of $lOO, ,OO0 in order to provide additional fi- nances for the construction of the school building.
 When completed. courses will be available to surrounding communi- ties as we'll as to inhabitants of Wa
