New highway training be given students A new training program to provide high school graduates with technical engineering in struction and subsequent em ployment with the Highway Department was announced by Chief Highway Commissioner, Silas N. Pearman. This pro gram, to begin in June, will be a work-study venture jointly conducted by the Highway De- Department and the Sumter Technical Education Commis sion. Each class will be divided into halves, with one half at tending classes while the oth er half is working with con struction units in the field. The classes will alternate in this manner until a total of nine months of classroom study has been completed. Under this program, the field employment will be at established rates of pay. The students will be re sponsible for their own living and tuition expenses during the periods of classroom training. First of its kind in South Carolina, this pilot program will be open to all eligible stu dents within reasonable driv ing range of Sumter, and is designed to open profitable ca reers to those students unable to continue their education thru college. If the course proves satisfactory, it will be made available to High school grad uates at other Technical Edu cation Centers.
