Citizens want psychiatric probe The Citizens' Commission on Human Rights is to set up an immediate inquiry into ,the role, use and services by psychiatrists in the Ontario educational system. Questionnaires are being sent to schools, universities and other educational establish- ments across Ontario, asking for views on the involvement of mental health services in education today. Ontario CCHR chairman, Bryan Toner stated, "More and more money is being made available for education - and this covers an increase in the. amount of money being spent on psychiatry in shools - arid indeed, in other areas." Coupled with this has been an increase in drug taking,. stress on conformity rather individualism in sChools and ordinary everyday problems in living and growing up being confused with "Men- tal Illness". "The Commission will be in- vestigating all aspects of the role of psychiatry in education, and will publish their findings in the form of a report when completed", Mr. Toner said. 4 will run without any leaks for at least a year and that a statistical check will be made next spring or summer after suitable methods have been proven during work on unit 3. The investigation was carried out by a team of specialists from Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., Ontario Hydro, Canadian General Electric, Orenda and Canadian Westinghouse.

When first used, it denoted lapis-lazuli and .posaibly other opaque minerals that were blue in colour. As it is with Ruby, the legendary virtues ascribed to sapphire are manifold, It was the royal gem to protect kings and potentates against harm and envy. It was regarded as the best stone for ecclesiastical rings. The Persians believed that tbe earth rested on a great sapphire, the color of which was reflected to give the sky its blue color. Also it has long been considered the symbol of truth and constancy. Although many of the early descriptions of sapphire alluded to lapis-lazuli, the legendary at- tributes came to be applied to our present-day sapphire. S,apphire is applied to all colors of corundum, other than medium-light to dark tones of red, which is called Ruby. Sap- phire has been known to come in almost all the colors of the rain- bow. When corundum is blue, it is called blue sapphire, and when it comes in other colors it is called fancy sapphire. The term Cashmere Sapphire, is applied to the velvety viotetish-blue stones, which have a "sleepy" appiarance 'unlike that of any other sapphire. Any sapphire that shows asterism is referred to as star sapphire. Alluvial deposits of sapphire are mined primarily in Burma, Ceylon, Thailand, with other oc- currences in India; Australia, and North America. As with many other gem minerals the colors of sapphire must be seen to be appreciated. 'David Anstett G.G.

Harold A. Smith, Hydro's vice- president Engineering, said today only modifications are required to eliminate the possibility of problems in the Bruce units similar to those which have shown up in Hydro's Pickering 3 reactor. The Pickering unit has been shut down since August because of cracks in pressure tubes. Mr. Smith noted the study shows materials used in the Pickering unit to be completely reliable. "Cracking was due to in- stallation problems," he added, "and advanced equipment is now being developed to enable Hydro to modify and improve this." The Hydro official said plans call for pressurized tubes in all four Bruce units to be stress relieved and predicted initial work should begin early in the new year. Total cost would be about $700,000. Mr. Smith noted Hydro has found cracks in only 18 of the 390 pressure tubes in Pickering unit 3 and is optimistic that retubing of the entire reactor will be unnecessary. An acoustical testing device is presently being developed which can be inserted into the reactor by the fuelling machine without defuelling the channel. "As soon as this is ready," Mr. Smith added, "we will be able to make a scan of tubes and determine on a solid statistical basis just how much damage has occurred at Pickering 3."
