4-YEAR COURSE OFFERED -- Warsaw Trybuna Ludu, No 168, 20 Jun 50
Schayer, Director of Agricultural Education of the Ministry of Agriculture
and Agrarian Reform, announced that present agricultural lyceums will be changed
during the academic year 1950-51 to 4-year agricultural lyceums. Students will
be trained in zootechnology, agrotechnology, agricultural accountancy, garden-
ing, fishing, and beekeeping. The first 3 years at the lyceums will be devoted
to theoretical studies, followed by 8 months of practice at PGR (State Farms),
POM (State Agricultural Machine Centers), cooperatives, etc. The students then
will return to the lyceums to take their examinations. Graduate students will
be sent to various agricultural enterprises. Outstanding graduates will be given
the choice of continuing advance studies in schools of higher education.
New 2-year agricultural lyceums will also be established for young agricul-
tural workers and adults who wish to improve their qualifications. During the
1950-51 t'^ademic year, 140 4-year and 2-year agricultural lyceums will be operat-
ing. Registration for the new-type agricultural lyceums opened. on 15 June.
A candidate must have completed 7 years in an elementary school to be ad-
mitted to a 4-year lyceum.
Youths on the job, adults, graduates of type-I lyceums, students who com-
pleted 9 'years in elementary schools, and graduates of agricultural high schools
may be admitted to the 2-year lyceums.

STATE LYCEUM OF AGRICULTURLL MECHANIZATION -- Warsaw Gazeta Pomorska, No 152,
4 Jun 50
Approximately 90 young students attend the State Lyceum of Agricultural
Mechanization in Gronowo. There are five such schools in Poland. After the
April 1950 reorganization, a 4-year course was introduced in these lyceums
open to students with 7 years of elementary schooling. The Gronowo lyceum
prepares students for the following; positions: technical inspectors, techni-
cal clerk-supervisors in machine centers, machine center managers, mecLaniza-
tion managers at PGR, technical managers in repair shops at TOR, PGR, POM,
and SOM repair shop managers, regional machinery inspectors, mechanization
clerk-supervisors in central and regional administrations of PGR, TOR, and POM.
In June 1950, 170 students will graduate from these five lyceums. This
number is far too small to satisfy the demand for skilled help. The Central
Administration of PCR alone has asked for 760 graduates. During the 1950-51
aca',~mic year, the Ministry of Agriculture and Agrarian Reform will open four
more lyceums of this type.

buildings for 600 students are under construction and five buildings to house
trainees. Two new wings will be added. An atheletic field, a swimming pool,
a large amphitheater, and other sport and cultural facilities will be available.
A central boiler room is under construction to heat all buildings. The laundry,
kitchen, and lunchroom will be located nearby.
Practically all of the 23 planned model homes in the farming center have
been erected.
The homes will be occupied by agricultural workers, instructors of the
training center, and administration officials.
