R.B, Dunlop, Superintendent Of Business Affairs, for the Huron County Board of Education was authorized at the Board meeting in Clinton Monday to negotiate individually with the custodians and to produce for ratification at the earliest date, re- commended contract values, and that this be completed by the addle of August. On recommendation from the Management committee the ,Board and the McKillop Township Council will sign a 10-year lease from September 1, 1973, to June 30, 1983, for the Board to use the area behind the McKillop Township garage and Office as a turn-around for school buses and loading of pupils for various school The Board decided not to blacktop the existing driveway as the cost was too high - $3,000 for three-inch topping. The Board turned down an offer from Clarke Zinn of the real estate firm of Wilfred' Mc Intee Co., Limited, for a parcel of land 82 feet by 264 feet ad- jacent to Central Huron Secon- dary School in Clinton as the pride of $6,000 was considered excessive. The present house on the lot is being moved. The Board granted per- 'mission to John. Armstrong of SentleSboro to build a-wooden similar to the One running along the back of his property?, on his land which borders on thd south side of Hullett Central School at no cost to the Board and to be' maintained by Mr. Armstrong at no cost to the Board. The Board will co-operate with the Hoirick Community Cen- tre 'Building Committee which requested the use of nine acres of land owned by the Boa:rd ad- jacent to Howick Public School, whiah the Committee requires for a race track. The track will be built when Howick and Gorrie amalgamate their two fairs. The property requires draining. At present it is only a hayfield. If leased it will be for a long term. The Board will continue its present policy on age for admis- sion to kindergarten - fifth birth- day before December 31 of the applicable school year. Some of the sample comments from schools on the suggestion that the .age be 'lowered were: More 4- year old pupils riding buses could cause problems; over 90 per cent of our teachers want _the policy left as it is. and lowering the admittance age would merely b3 robbing from next year's total and not solving the problem of low enrolments. The Board accepted the report of A.M. Harper, chartered accountant,. for the official audited financial statement. It will now -be submitted tb the Ministry of Education, and the superintendent of business af- fairs will be instructed to publish in, all weekly newspapers of Huron County the summarized version of the auditor's report. The Board will advise parents of Bruce County pupils enrolled or to be enrolled in Brookside Public School, that, if the Bruce County Board of Education re- fuses to pay tuition fees, such pupils may complete their ele- mentary education in Huron County schools, if the parents so wish, at no cost to the parents, but that any children who have not yet reached school enrolment age will have to enrol in a school designated-by the Bruce County Board of Education. The Board will refer the let- ter from the Society for the Study of the Heritage of Canada re existing problems of current "March break" to the Adminis- tration for recommendation when the 1974-75 school year program is, being drawn up. The' letter was prompted by the number of 'students and teachers who travel found the address of the forioal rental firm in one of the pockets and gave them a call. They rushed over to the hotel with the buttons and cufflinks at about ten after seven." Describing the dinner, Reeve Elston said, "there was more crystal- and silver on our table alone than you could find in the whole of HuronCounty,I'm sure." At Mr. Elston's table were the publisher of the Globe and Mail, MPP for Huron Jack Riddell and the secretary to the Governor General. They dined on "jellied goose liver, which doesn't sound very good but tasted all right," the reeve noted, steak, potatoes with cheese sauce, "some sort of ferns from New Brunswick bill forget just what you call them," and plenty of wine. Reeve Elgin Thompson ex- plained that he arrived at the Conservation Authority event early and obtained one .of the best seats right beside the podium where the Queen sat. "She passed so close I could have touched the hem of her garment," he told the members, ""but I didn't." Describing the Queen, Reeve Thompson said she was very "slim and very very lady-like:" She exceeded my expectationS by far."

Cayle3t Hill, Chairman of the Board, asked if any pupil is being deprived of any course he, wants to 'take because of de- clining enrolment. He was told that at the present time no one is, however, Latin is no longer rewired for any course and is being phased out. Mrs. J.W. Wallace reported a student at Goderich, who will be taking Grade 13 French and wanted to take History rather than a Math, was having trouble arranging this on her timetable. Mr. Coulter said this may be straightened out by next fall for the student. Afterward he explained he also attended a luncheon but noted it was not quite the grand affair described by Reeve Elston. Warden pattison described the Queen as a "very very gracious lady" as he recounted his Royal dinner at Centennial Hall in London. "The weather wasn't the best, he explained, "but the Royal visit to London was a success." "Because of large crowds in Cambridge the Queen was more than a lalf hour late for the dinner but we were eirtitertained by two school choirs and the time passed very quickly," he explained. At the London dinner, Warden Pattison dined on pheasant, potatoes, asparagus, rice and sherbet. "As the London Free Press very correctly reported," he added 'they kept the wine glasses full."

Reeve Elston, In describing what he termed "one ofThe lights of my life", sent the council chambers into gales of laughter as he described a last minute problem he faced upon finding that his rented tuxedo was minus button clasps and cuff links. "I started to get ready inlets of time, at, about 6:30, for the dinner which was to begin at 7:30 when I found there were no buttons," he eXplaitted.
