"It is much closer to the popular provincial figure than is the teachers' request. In most instances we are $100 off." "The teachers said thgt new teachers were hired on at sala- -ries higher than, those already on staff with equal qualification and experience," said Elliott. "No doubt this is true but the board tried unsuccessfully to eliminate this last year. The bind came be- cause of the fact that as well as teachers who were receiving less for experience, there were those who were receiving more. Those receiving more were asked to ,forego any increase last year 'while the others caught up: This:• was turned down by the teachers." "If the board's first offer was accepted without the recal- culation of. expenses it means that every teacher across the board except those in their first two ' years of teaching inHurotiCounty would receive a $600 increase 'made up of $400 inCrement plus the $200 increase in category," continued Elliott. "The teachers with two years or less would re- ceive $500, $300 increment plus the $200 increase in category." 'Because the board also is not happy with 'inequities in 'the salaries between schools, the teachers recalculation of the tea- chers' Salaries is a desirable move," advised Elliott. "How- ever, the problem will be again, are those. that are overpaid wil- ling to wait for those that ate underpaid to catch up?" '" The teachers point out their concern for the ratepayers," said Elliott. am glad to hear it. Their concern does not seem to be as great for the taxpayers of Ontario of which Huron County is a part. This old theory that because grants are paying apor- tiort of the cost that caution can be forgotten is a pOor one. Every taxpayer knows that Mr. Mc- Naughton has no magic money machine to pay the grants. It is simply the other pocket of the taxpayer." "We agree the teachers Should be on a comparable level salary-wise with the rest of the province" added Elliott. "Let us realize,' however, that In- creased grants for the have-not areas such as Huron are pot to be used merely to raise salaries but to bring about -the quality of opportunity for the students of Huron County. which was why the county system originated. I might point out that although the tea-. chers taught last year without a signed salary agreement, they did receive by their own admis- sion, a salary schedule • which Was practically dead on the Ora- vincial median." Failure to settle last year was attributed by the teachers to a general attitude of the board and ,.in decisions affecting education 4in the county," concluded Elliott. "These are not the reasons the board was aware .of. A. joint press release in the London Free' press last year states the rea- sons for disagreenient as date ' and frequency of pay periods." "There has been far too much discussion outside of the nego- tiation room already thiS year,"' said Elliott. "Our suggestion is that our differences are so slight that we can't understand why they were not negotiated." Delegations representing both the elementary school teachers and the secondary school tea- chers were on hand at the mee- ting. HIRING TEACHERS In his report concerning Sa- turday's session at which 'tea- chers will be interviewed, James Coulter, superintendent of edu- cation said that 25 elementary school teachers are needed to fill vacancies. He reported that 58 appli- cations had been received "front 'people who have certificates." Of these, 12 - are 1969 graduate's from Teachers' College who were not able to get jobs last year. Mr. Coulter also said there ar e several applications from p-dOple still in. school". Mrs. J. W. Wallace, Goderich, remarked that there was a pos- sibility that all the vacancies for elementary school teaching positions in the county could be filled next year with teachers in Category 4. She asked what the board would do , in this instance since it was evident that Cate- gory 4 teachers would receive Much higher salaries. Mr. Elliott told her that if two applicants impressed the in- terviewers to the same degree, the only difference being that one had' more qualifications than' the other, the one with the better qualifications would be hired. It was also indicated by several board members that tea-' cher& who hold more degrees are not necessarily better, leachers. "You 'have to use' your intui- tion," advised' John D. Cochrane, Director 'al Education. 00.00•110.0.~...1.00.00.10../06.410.0!..11040.0.4.40.4101, The Seaforth Hospit Auxi- liary meeting will -be held Tues- day, April 14th. at 8 p.m. at the Seaforth community Hospital.

TRY US Saturday Night MUSIC BY FRED HARBURN & NOREEN HURON HOTEL Dublin • Inquest Jury (Continued from Page 1) section. It is a gravel road in fairly good condition with no potholes to take a driver's at- tention. The speed limit is fifty miles per hour--a town,' ship road. Mr. Nicholson said the sun did not bother him. as he was driving. Mr. Nicholson testified he watched the car ahead of him. It did not waver and the driver did not appear to apply his brakes. He could not see the impact be- cause of the snow. • Mr. Nicholson said he went over to the car--he could only see one person and there was no sign of life. He stated he was first at the scene. ' • At the 'completion of the questioning by Mr. Cochrane, Mr.-Nicholson added: "I did not hear the whistle of the train, but with the windows up and a west wind blowing as then, I could not hear it." Mr.Cochrane asked him if his car heater was on and he replied it was.' Mr. Cochrane asked about the signs and Mr. Nicholson said there were two signs - - the Depart- ment, of Highways railway sign 500 feet south of the crossing, the second sign is the railway crossed arms at the crossing. Mr. Cochrane asked him if he had had any particular trouble with the crossing and Mr. Nichol- son replied he had not, he had worse crossings. The fourth witness, Mrs. Charles Silver, reported her huSba.nd left home at. 11:10 a.m. but usually left at quarter to nine: She told of a slight in- jury Mr. 'Stiver had suffered to his right foot when handling hi's horses on Sunday. He had decided not to go in •to school early(he was Guidance Counsel- lor at Huron Central Secondary School in Clinton). She said She .had suggested he go to the hospital for an X-ray. However, he felt he,,could manage sq she bandaged his foot and he was able to put on an old pair of shoes and was able to walk well. She said he was in good health and in good spirits, She said lie crossed this crossing twice every day on his way to school and, she • was sure he always slowed down. "He was a careful man. The car was in excellent shape -- new ,tires. It had just been checked over." Dr. Brady asked her if he had slept Well and She said he had. Dr. Brady asked if he had taken any medication which might make him drowsy and said he had only . taken one Dristan tablet for a congestive condition. Juror Allan Haugh of R.R.1, Brucefield, asked if the car had a radio and if it was on and she said it had a radio but would not be on. The last witness was Con- stable Ray Primeau of the Sea- forth Detachment of O.P.P. who investigated the accident. -He said the car was on the west travelled portion of the side- road, 101 feet west of the west edge of the road and 14 feet from the south track. He said damage to the car was to the right side and it was extensively damaged. Mr. Primeau said there was nothing remarkable about the intersection, the markings were visible and the snowbanks would not hide them. He said there was very slight ground drifting, if any. When Mr.Coch- rane asked him if the sun would cause any trouble Mr. Primeau replied the sun did not cause any trouble for him but that he was wearing sunglasses. He said it, was the first accident he had attended at this crossing. Dr. Brady stated he did not have a pathologist present as the findings were clear cut. He said Mr. Stiver had died instantly and death would have been caused from gross damage to the skull which was crushed, the ruptured heart and lungs and the numerous fractayes to ribs and limbs. In summing up Dr. Brady said the train was on a normal run, a few minutes late, visibility poor because of flying snow, large chunks' flying up to tops of telegraph wires,train bell was :yinging. Mr. Stiver, because of injury, Was not at the crossing at the usual time. Dr. Brady said the questions to be -answered in the verdict are: When? Where? How? and by what means did Mr. Stiver come to his death? • The jury was out from 2:55 p.m. to 3:45 p.m.' fOr a total of fifty minutes; The verdict: "Charles Edward Stiver, deceased person,' came to his death at 11:20 O'clock in forenoon on February 23, 19'70 at sideroad 15 and 16 Tuckersmith Township and death was caused by multiple injuries to his body as result of the collision of his car and the train. The jury recommends that trains be equipped with revolving flash- ing lights and more prominent whistle in rural areas." Members of the Jury, were: John MacKay, R.R. 4, Seaforth, foreman; Lorne Carter, R.R. 2, Seaforth; Bruce Coleman, R.R.4, Seaforth; Harry Arts, R.R. '4, Seaforth; - Allan Haugh, R,I4, Brucefield.
