Health Unit." Mr. Connolly said, adding that the report, if • implemented, could eventually have impact on the schools. ,The board decided to send a letter of thanks to the Huron Council for involving them in • their discussions. At the last Board meeting in July, trustee Vince Young was asked to approach the Huron County board of education on the possibility 'of tendering together for fuel to supply the boards' properties. On a question from Stratford trustee DasVid Teahen, Mr. Geoffrey said that the Huron board had completed its fuel negotiations for this year and therefore the matter was dropped. A principal, rather than one or two Board members, will be sent to a Toronto meeting which is organizing Education Week throughout the province, the board decided. Trustees Geoffrey and Shantz, who have attended these meetings previously, both said they felt that sending a principal would accomplish more in getting local participation in Education Week. Superinten- dent Vintar agreed saying "a principal can get information out to the schools through the Principal's Association." Trustee Vince Young repor- ted for the personnel committee -that Barbara Rau has been hired as a custodian at Ecole Ste Marie and that Michael Denomme will be a new bus driver on one of the routes at the same school. The board's policy committee asked for 15 minutes to report on the many "outdated" policies at the next meeting. On a question from Trustee Crowley, Mr. Vintar said that an evaluation on the board's pilot Family Life Education project should be available in September. The board agreed to pass on any information on the history of early education in Stratford to T. J. Dolan who is writing a history of the city. Handbills will be sent through the Stratford HPRCSS Schools advising students and parents of a sports' equipment exchange being held at the Stratford Y in September. Trustee Shantz asked that -board members be informed about when administrators are going on holidays. Mr. Vintar said it could be arranged for next year.

(continued from page 1 board's physical education con- sultant John McCarron. Many separate school sup- porters in Huron and Perth are paying higher mill rates for their children's education than are public school supporters, according to the comparison in- cluding 1972, 73 and 74 presen- ted to the board by Business Administrator Jack Lane. "We've attempted to identify trends over three years and they are discouraging from our point' of view," Mr. Lane said. Eighty percent of the 47 municipalities the board serves are experiencing decreasing mill rates for public elementary schools and increasing rates for the high schools. Public and separate supporters share the high schools which means that the separate supporter is get- ting hit with two "major kinds of increases", while the public supporter, with the elementary decrease, ends up paying "about the same as before." More information will be available through trustee Ar- thur Haid's finance and in- surance Committee, Board chairman Michael Connolly said. A. bridge in Hibbert Town- ship just south of St. Columban has been condemned and HPR- CSS bus drivers will be instruc- ted not to use it, Trustee Don Crowley reported for the tran- sportation committee. A new bridge is not being built but bus routes do not have to use the old one, Mr. Crowley said. Huron County Council, Huron's Board of Health, the medical officers of Health of Huron and Perth, Hospital auxiliary and Medical representatives, all oppose the Mustard Report on restruc- turing of health services in On- tario,Trustee Ted Geoffrey and Chairman Connolly reported. They attended, as Board representatives, a special session of County Council on Monday afternoon, called to discuss the report and the Department of Health's request for feedback on it. "I think it's a good idea to support the Huron County The final production of the 1974 Festival of Summer Theatre at the Huron Country Playhouse is a new musical ver- sion of the old temperance play Ten Nights in a Bar Room. It begins its four-day run in the playhouse tent on the Stephen B Line off Highway 81 on Wed- nesday, August 14 at 9 p.m. with a final performance taking place in Kincardine Town Hall, Sunday only, August 18, at 8:30, as the last offering of the Kincardine season. Ten Nights in a Bar-Room is a melodrama depicting the evils of drink. It was first produced in England more than a century ago. The full 1974 company ap- pear onstage in this season (continued from page 1 large unneccessary bureaucracy would be created. Dr. Susan Tarnblyn, medical officer of health for the Perth District Health Unit, said public health needs more em- phasis on improving lifestyles and physical fitness. The Mustard report does not consider these improvements in its proposals, she said. The proposals threaten autonomy, make health care costlier and do nothing to im- prove health, Dr, Tarnblyn said. Jack Riddell, MPP for Huron, said the county would be lost in the district proposed by the Mustard report. Murray Gaunt, MPP for Huron-Bruce, agreed with Mr. Riddell when he said that the county "would be completely smothered" when policy decisions were made. Experience has shown that regionalization proposed in the report would increase costs, he said. He warned of a "bureaucratic dictatorship" the councils would create. If people don't agree with policies made by their district councils, they can't remove council members in .electimis because the members are ap, pointed, Mr. Gaunt warned. Dr, Frank Mills, medical of- ficer of health for Huron County, said at thebeginning of the meeting that the im- plications of Mustard Report proposals on countyresidents were "just beyond belief'..

Advance bookings for 'Ten Nights' - with Saturday, Aug. 17 already sold out - indicates a strong contender for becoming attendance record- breaker against The Last of the Red Hot Lovers of a couple of weeks ago. That production averaged 91% houses at each performance, with many theatregoers having to be tur- ned away at the box office. Dining at the Playhouse on Fridays and Saturdays in the Great Barn's dining room con- tinues its popularity with the $7.50 "Dinner & Play" package.
