planned as well as a bus trip to
Toronto on June 23, 1971;
family night in November; a
Dessert Euchre in January when
all the branches in South Huron
will be invited; and the members
will bring a friend to the March
meeting. The roll call contest is
again conducted and each
member has a secret pal.
Friends, neighbours and
relatives gathered in the Hensall

miscellaneous bridal shower for
Kathie Henderson, bride-elect of
this month. The hall was
decorated in pink, white and
mauve centred with a bridal
umbrella. Mrs. Leonard Noakes
read the presentation address,
and the Misses Pamela and Sheila
Lindsay, nieces of the
bride-elect, presented Kathie
with her gifts.
Following the presentation
BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER
The matter of health examinations for
students entering kindergarten and Grade 9
in Huron County Schools was tabled again at
Monday's -.meeting of the Huron' County
Board of Education until the Huron County
Medical Association has had an opportunity
to pass an opinion on the problem,
Dr. harry Deathe, one of two medical
doctors .on the board of education, said he
doubted that the medical men in Huron
County would have the time to adequately
examine all the students who would require
physicals before or shortly after the opening
of school in September.
"I'm not criticising the value of this,"
said Dt. Deathe. "You're just not going to
get a good job. You're deluding yourselves."
Dr, Alex Addison agreed. He said that a
family physician will often sign a form for a
child entering school not after a thorough
An ad hoc committee consisting of James
Taylor, Marilyn Kunder, Clarence
McDonald, Wilfred Shortreed, Marion Zinn
and Chairman Robert Elliott to study
kindergartens in the county of Huron
received the board's approval to leave things
as they are at the present time with regard to
kindergartens.
Any new kindergarten; in the county will
be encouraged to adopt a full-day
every-other program and to provide bus
transportation for kindergarten pupils only
insofar as it is coincidental with bus
transportation .schedules for other pupils in
the same'school.
To permit the organization of a
kindergarten to be changed, there must'be a
request from at least 75 percent of the
parents or legal guardians of children
affected by the proposed change, but only
examination but rather on the strength of
what he has learned' about the child in the
years he has been the family's doctqr. He
indicated that most'doctors just do not have
the time to give a thorough physical for
camp, for school, for swimming lessons, etc.
Dr. Deathe added that in his opinion, a
doctor could much better use his time giving
periodical thorough physical examinations
to those students involved in tough body
contact sports such as football, hockey etc.
The suggestion for the physical
examination came from the Huron County
Health Unit through the office of Acting
Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Frank Mills,
Dr. Mills felt the policy could be of value,
particularly in view of the severe health
problems which came to light only during
the great storm last winter when children all
over the county were stranded in schools for
two or three days,
after the ramifications of such change have
been explored in consultation with the
Director of Education or his delegate, the
principal and the teacher, and provided that
such change does not cause additional cost
to the Board.
John Henderson, McKillop, was not
happy with the decision of the board.
"I thought this committee was going to
take a survey of kindergartens in the
county," said Henderson. "They didn't take
a survey at all. They had a committee
meeting and came up with a pulicY."
Henderson made some attempt to have
the committee re-organized to complete a
study of students, parents and teachers
involved in kindergarten thrthigh out the
county but later abandoned •the idea in favor
of silence.
Health examination question
tabled again to await comment
Kindergarten policy remains the same
