BERN AND JEAN HENDERSON • 8!.:*1E 4-HORON EXPOSITOR, SEAFORTH, ONT., MAY 7, 1970 cif Engagement so, A brief report on the driver education courses offered in the five county high schools was set aside at Monday evening's mee- ting of the Huron County Board of Education until more informa- tion is made available. The initial report showed a wide variance in the costs to students and the methods of operating the course at the dif- fer ent schools. Dan Murphy, Goderich, suggested that a much more detailed study should be made of the actual costs of the various systems before the board approves or disapproves any mo- tions pertaining to driver educa- tion in the county. Recommendations in the re- port were that students be charg- ed a uniform fee for the course; that classroom instruction be given by a teacher of the secon- dary school concerned with night school rates per hour to be,paid for this; and that sufficient li- censed private citizens be en- gaged to give the in-car instruc- tion so that all eligible students can be accommodated. Roy B. Dunlop, business ad- ministrator, said he could ascer- tain the costs of the various me- thods of instruction and bring a report to the board at some fu- ture meeting. C hai rtn an John La- vis said it should be "an in- teresting comparison". Wingham undertaker,Gordon Moir, said that he has, seen the results of bad driving 'too often and advocated that the cost of driver education to the student be kept as low as possible so that most everyone could benetit by it. Although the press represen- tative for the Huron County News- paper Association asked the Hu- ron County Board of Education members Monday evening for a breakdown of the 1970 budget, an Seek (Continued from Page 1) the board solicitor, Elmer Bell, Q.C., Exeter, make a recom- mendation concerning clergy re- serves in Tuckersmith and Mc- Killop Townships. Also while dealing with the auditor's report, it was 'noted cafeterias in the county's secon- dary schools earned $57,000 in 1969, but cost $67,000, "I'm surprised they came that close," was Dan Murphy's com- ment. acme members of the board were opposed to subsidizing stun' dent's meals. More were con- vinced that the board should not subsidize meals for the teachers. Decision was made to launch a study of school cafeterias in the county. There is a wide variety of meals, menus and cafeteria ma- nagement throughout the county and the study will be designed to discover what methods are the most profitable. A $3,300 item in the auditor's report for elementary school ca- feterias was questioned by the board in view of the fact there are no cafeterias at the elemen- tary school level. It was agreed, however, that this was probably an account for milk which isproa vided in some county schools. The question of whether or not the county school board should aim to provide cafeteria facili- ties in the eleMentary schools was discussed only briefly. Gordon Moir, Wingham, said that because of the .age of the children, particularly in the pri- mary grades, it was not feasible. Highways (Continued from Page 1) saved by permitting studded tires to be used. • ' County Engineer Jim Britnell, however, reported that in three years of use in Ontario, it has been estimated that studded tires have caused, about $8,000,000 worth of damage to road surfaces. "As well, since the studded tires were blamed for removing the white line which mark the lanes in the highways, studded tires could be considered a hazard to safe driving. County Council also agreed to support in principle a resolution • from the town of Goderich peti- tioning the provincial governmerit to immediately consider the fea- sibility of providing adequate four-lane highway linkage in the. Huron/Perth area to Highway 401 but to reserve full toncurrence until the Georgian Bay-Lake Hu- ron area study report has been made public and is studied. Huron will also support a re- solution from the county of Lamb- . ton recommending amendments to the Expropriation Act 1968-69. It was also learned that the county road committee is now in the process of inspecting the 340 mile county road system along with the road and bridge priori- ties contained in the 1969 Needs Study. The committee proposes to submit a long range construc- tion plan just as soon as possible. It is hoped the Needs Study will be available to county council at the June session. outline of expenses according to categories will not be forth- coming until the end of June. . "I say. the end of June,", said- Board Vice-Chairman,, Bob El- liotaGoderich Township to the county reporter Mrs. Shirley J. Keller, "so you won't think I'm hedging."--- It was Elliott who introduced an amendment to a motion to re- lease a breakdown of the budget spending to the press. The amendment which ultiMately gained favor with the board sti- pulated -that the breakdown be' made available at the end of June. Board policy on the disposal of surplus equipment was dis- cussed. At the present time the Board's policy requires that all surplus equipment be sold by pub- lic auction. Since there are at the present time a number of student desks and several teachers' desks in the county, none of which "would warrant hiring an auctioneer" ac- cording to Director of Education John Cochrane, policy will be amended to read "for sale by public auction or adver- tisement in the local newspaper of the community where such equipment is located". The board also learned of the following resignations: Mrs. Mary Robinson, Colborne Cen- tral; Mrs. Grace Jutzi, East Wa- wanosh PS; Edwin Anderson and Miss S, Huston, F. E. Madill SS;• Mrs. P. Bechard, Grey Central; Mrs. Debra Newby, Huron Cen- tennial pS; Gerald Martinson, South Huron District-'HighSchool; Mrs. Shirley Mousseau, Stephen Central; and Mrs. Marion Isaac, Usborne Central. Mr. Cochrane reported that the question of•corporal punish- ment raised at the last regular board meeting has been referred to the Principals' Associationfor study, but that results are not yet all into the. Board of Education office. A full report is expected in the future, Teachers in the county who are working with the superinte dents of education to write courses of study for English, his- tory, geography, mathematics and science in Grades 6, 7, 8 and 9 will be released from their tea-. ching duties for up to two school. days this year and if extra time is required to complete the work, it will be done Saturdays and tea- chers will, be paid $30 per day, the supply teacher rate. • • As well, supply teachers will be hired to fill in during the times that the teachers on these- study committees are away from their classes. Mr. Cochrane explained that since the department -of educa- tion is issuing only broad guide= lines for, the.. teachers to follow, it is deemed important for a course of study in the basic sub- jects be set up in the county sys- tem to ensure uhiformity here. • • In other business, John Laois was named to sit on (he Hilton Presbytery of 'the United*Church of Canada 'committee to study religious education in the schools; Howick Central School staff was increased by a half teacher to complete 'the French program initiated by the previous board; and board members • learned they were invited to sit in on a meeting to discuss the possibility' of establishment of a Mental Health Association for Huron County.
