• Due to bgd weather conditions
last Wednesday ,night, only six
members of Clinton District Col-
legiate Institute Board were able
to attend the meeting. Only one
municipality, the Township of God-
erich, has approved the addition to
the building.
Menno Steckle reported that the
councillors in Stanley Township
were concerned over the basis of
assessment. This township pays
for 31 percent of the costs of the
school, based on equalized assess-
ment throughout the district. They
unfair.
George Reid introduced the sub-
ject being. talked „of in the Hay
and Stanley Townships, of chang-
ing the area slightly, and building
another collegiate probably in Hay
Township at Zurich. This would
save in distances travelled by the
students.
He was reminded that if such
another school were built, the rate-
payers now in the Clinton Area
would have to fulfill their obliga-
tions for the Clinton school until
the debentures are paid off. In
addition would be the cost of build-
ing, furnishing and staffing
school, and transportation of pup-
ils.
J. W. VanEgniond, Hullett
Township's representative said he
felt. the present school should be
completed with a decent auditor-
ium and proper gym, before plans
were made for another one.
Chairman I. Tebbutt, Goderich
Township, reported that there was
some talk of sending a delegation
to Toronto to ask for grants on the
gymnasium and auditorium. Mr.
VanEgmond said, "If the Depart-
ment of Education would only
think back to the time when grants
on these items were cut off. It
was when all those big metropol-
itan schools were building those
large gymnasiums. Ours would-
n't cost a fraction of that. Yet at
the same 6 time we're helping to
pay for those large gyms which
•were built when the grants Were
;still in effect"
Principal E. A. Fines noted that
ratepayers taxes Were paying for
all those other buildings, and we
'should be getting some help with
,our own building, from those peo-
'.ple already benefitting,
