manual training

Born in Brooklyn, Pepitone went to Manual Training High School, signed with the Yankees in 1958 and made his big league debut in 1962.

Dubbed the Wisconsin Avenue Manual Training School, it was ready for occupancy in October 1911.

Underwood, who had been a teacher of drawing at McKinley Manual Training School, was the first principal.

The District’s schools weren’t desegregated until 1954, and the Wisconsin Avenue Manual Training School was for white students only: cabinet making and woodworking for the boys and housekeeping for the girls.

Manual training schools were for students not expected to go to college.
