To counter a need for trained, specialized employees, the Alpine, Provo and Nebo School Districts are cooperating to provide effective technical training for some 15 youths. The students selected for participation in the new program are attending regular high school one-ha- lf day, working for an accredited automobile dealer or service center one-ha- lf day, as well as receiving technical training on a regular basis. Lee Shepherd, Orem High School, is teaching the automotive class, with each boy attending technical school 240 hours during the school year. The program is expected to offset the shortage of trained technicians, providing young men with jobs for the future and employees with trained technicians to care for customer vehicles. The program is aided substantially by Ford Marketing Corporation and its dealers, who are interested in bringing into the labor market graduates who are adequately trained in maintenance of todays highly complex automobiles. Keith S. Aller, service manager for Ford Marketing Corporation, this week presented new equipment valued at $3,138 to the automotive training course, which is taught at Orem High School. The grant includes a 390 engine, a 390 automatic transmission, an air conditioner and a four-spetransmission. Mr. Aller said these training aids are part of a continuing Ford Motor Company program, in cooperation with its dealers, to provide students interested in auto mechanics with an opportunity to learn about the work with equipment that features the latest in technological, scientific ano engineering improvements. Last year, Ford Motor Company donated approximately $1,030,000 worth of automotive equipment to 621 schools and colleges in the United States.

With each major automotive assembly donated to eligible institutions, Ford also provides teaching aids values at over $100 per student, which helps instructors explain the intracacies of the equipment, principles of operation, diagnosis, adjustment, repair and overhaul.
