McKerlie Automotive Ltd. 86 Albert Street Clinton (Dy "Zurich Cttieens. News Reporter). Stanley Township Council anenisnoraelY approved the ePs POintMent of Bruce McOlinchey to /the Clinton. District Colleg- iate Inetitute Board, at their meetileg asset Thursday. Mr, Mc- Cline-hey replaces Mestne Steck- /Or who has represented Stan- ley on the beard for mew years, Mr, Steckle reported to the council neeting as requested by Reeve Harvey Coleman. at the meeting of December 5. Mr. Coleman asked for, end received a full report on sal- aries paid teachere and all other .employees of the school. He suggested that "It appears that there are fewer students per teacher than is the case in. Exeter and Seaforth. How do you account for this?" "It was estimated at the RCAF Station that there would be a large number of students attending Collegiate this year," answered Mr. Steckler "Due to a transfer is personnel there, we' have net pearly als maw students as we anticipated. We had about 30 percent fail tin grades nine and ten last years Most of these, along with some Who barely passed, did not re- turn this year, This W91,11:4 ac- count for our ratio of students per teacher being a little eat of Rite. Regarding the 30 per- cent who failed, I feel that the principal and his teechlitie staff, are working hard to car- rent this situation this year." "I agree that the principal is trying to do a good jab," commented Coleman, "but how do you account for the large number who failed last year?" "It is' due in pert to the overcrowded conditions last year', The teaching staff is not satisfied with the results that they achieved, They are trying. :to build' up the educational standard's of the students," Councillor Elmer Hayter as- serted, "I understand that the student is not allowed to take notes while the teacher is ad- dressing the class,. He must do this later from memory," Deputy Reeve, Alvin Rate said that he had followed an Exeter School bur, for several miles and noticed that none of the students carried books for home work as they left the bus'. seems to me that those attending Clinton' Collegiate have a, great deal of home work," he stated. "The board has discussed this situation," replied Steckle. "How many hours are spent each evening doing home wo- rk?" asked the Reeve. Coun- cillor -Ernest Talbot, who bas two children attending CDOI said, "My children are spending about four hours each evening doing home work. The council is not finding fault with the principal," he continued, "There have been erroneous reports broadcast by radio implying this, but it is not true, I do think though, that 'the princi- pal should not attend the bo- ard meetings." "He goes out of the room when the board has anything to discuss that dose: not concern him," said! Mr. Steckle. "Last meeting Reeve Coleman asked me why the secretary had open- ed the applications for a part- time secretary. With one ex- ception; all applications were addressed to the secretary in plain envelopes. One was mark- ed "application" but it did not indicate what the application was for. What else could the secretary do but open these letters addressed to him? The principal is needed to advise the board' when a teacher or secre- tary is being hired. He has to Work directly with these em- ployees, and it is only fair that we consult him on their selec- tion." "Has the board decided on the action it is going to take regarding the hiring of the part-time secretary?" asked Talbot. "We are not taking any ac- tion now," the board member. replied. "The fact -that the board is. not taking any action proves that we were on the right track," observed Coleman, "I think that we have a goad principal and a good secretary," said Steckle. "Mr. Steclde, you have been on the board for almost ten years, and I understand that you have attended every meet- ing," claimed Mr. Coleman, "Was there ever a motion by the board to give the secretary the power to take the action he does? I think that he oversteps his authority." "I have missed only one meet- ing since I was appointed to the beard. There has never been any motion like this passed. The, business was always man- aged in the same manner as' it is being done now," ,answered Mr. Steckle. An animated discussion fol- lowed on the cost of the new addition to the school. Steckle said that the architect had sug- gested cutting costs, by altering construction slightly and sub- stituting some of the materials used. This plan was scrapped by the Department of Educa- tion. Pin-pointed was the cost of the electrically operated door which divides the gyms'. The cost of tls:s door was 'about $8,000.00. "The Department of Education demanded this type of door," said Steckle, "We, as a board, have no authority in this field. We are dictated to by the Department of Educa- tion." Bob Peck, who was appointed to the collegiate board recently, and has attended only two board meetings, accompanied Mr. Steckle to the council meet- ing. Because he was a new beard member, Peck was not asked for any information, or held responsible for any action token by the board. Council passed a motion to enpoint the reeve to contact the township's engineer to get his approval, then engage a local contractor to deepen Branch No. 5 of the Brucefield drain. The work is to be done Mr. and Mrs. Barry Pipe, London, spent the weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Harry Williams.
