KWHS STUDENTS

Yest participates in such state
activities as the district conven-
{ ion held in Miami each year, and
/ sends delegates to the state con-
antion in Tampa.
The group of trainees here has
club through which they can
e mp for any social life of the
they may miss by being at
jobs. The club has picnics,
as and makes the trips to the
lyentions.
Il you wonder about some of the
employers actual reactions to the
training course as shown by their
comments about their present en-
ployees-in-training, take the words
I OF Mr., Ed Tucker, manager of
3. H. Kress Co. He said, ''It is an
excellent program. I have had lots
of experience with programs Of
this kind and this is one of the best.
We get the very highest type of
employees through this means. !"
Now working at Kress are Mary
Lowe and Dolores Valdez.
The head mechanic at Mulberg's
had this to say of Jack Ward who
is learning body and fender repair
there, "He can do anything. He
is one of the best boys we have
ever had working here"
So the comments ran, and there
was never a derogatory statement.
That's cause Mr.. Chapman works
tireIessly at the job of getting the
right person in the right job. If
student begins at a job and finds,
after a long enough period Of time
to give him a real concrete idea
of what the job is like, that the
Job is really not what he wanted,
Mr.. Chapman helps him make a
change which is amenable both to
him and to the employer.
Sometimes it's tough struggle
getting a student placed, Mr.. Chap
man said, because in some cases
the ambition Of the student doesn't
fit with any Of the existing job list
ings. But he always hunts around,
and so far he has been able to
make placements satisfactory to
the students.
This is not simply a business Of
asking the prospective trainee
what he wants to do, either, be-
cause in some cases they don't
even know for sure what they want.
Aptitude tests are given and in
serviews are conducted, in fact
every effort is made TO find out
what the student is best Tilted for
and TO make that jibe with his per-
sonal interests.
