Show NYA Offers Summer War Oasses A letter outlining training for different war jobs under the National Na-tional Youth administration, was sent to all seniors recently, listing list-ing training open to everyone between be-tween the ages of 16 and 25 and to those who secure a work permit from school authorities if the person per-son has not graduated. The letter stated that classes are to be given in Salt Lake City and Provo, where eight hours of training will be given every day except Saturday and Sunday. If living at home, the "learning wage" is $40 a month, and if living in the dormitories, $15.90. The latter does not include meals, lodging, recreational re-creational facilities, and medical care. All classes, except power sewing, are open to both boys and girls. In Salt Lake, the following courses will be given: Machine shop, which intends to teach operation of lathes, drill presses, milling machines, shapers, grinders, planers, heat-treating equipment, blueprint reading, and bench-work included.
