      ab: The article presents information on teaching data processing in the schools and colleges in the United States. Within the next 10 years, it is expected that data processing will make more than 500,000 jobs available to qualified persons trained in the skills of programing and operating machines, maintenance and repair, and even filing and bookkeeping in support of machinery. One school district, which has taken a step in the right direction, is Olympia, Washington, where a two-year institute, operated under board of education auspices, trains vocationally oriented personnel in data processing, electronics, and related skills. The school is a compromise with local factions who originally wanted to establish a community college, but who have settled for this training school to service local employment needs. That this goal is being achieved is apparent in the make-up of the first class in data processing. Olympia's superintendent of schools, Rolland H. Upton, points out that the decision to train students in data processing was made after surveying the locality.
