The clinic will be held in the

The phase of the NYA program
to be stressed most at the clinic
will be the program designed for
youths out of school, according to
Dr. W. K. Beggs, who is making
arrangements. It is this part of
the NYA work which is causing
the most confusion and misunder
standing, he believes, since most
educators are more familiar with
the program for needy youth in
schools whom the NYA assists by
paying an hourly wage for work
done in and for the schools.
