Shortage Of Teachers
Prancpal
Shortage et high school teach-
ers in Ontario was described as
",desperate" Wednesday by p.Ii.-
D.H.S. Principal H. L. Sturgis
who still seekstwo instructors to
complete his 1955-56 staff. lie
has been negotiatidg with appli-
cants for almost A Meath.
"1 didn't think the situation
• was as bad as a le," the principal
said in discussing the problem.
"I knew the shortage was acute
but I •did.n't believe it would
reach its present state for several
years."
.Several of the new •teachers
will qualify on letters of stand-
ing, which is the second lowest
category authorized by the de-
partment. At least two are uni-
versity students who are expected
to graduate this spring and will
attend the summer course at the
Ontario College of Education.
Among the applications for the
seven vacancies on the local staff
were those from people who had
not completed university train-
ing, others who did not intend to
take teaching courses, some from
fields of business who have been
out of school for years and have
never taught. Very few of the
applicants are fully qualified;
those that are demand exception-
al salaries and apparently are get-
ting them,
The principal said lie had been
outbid .on a number of occasions
by schools from larger cities and

Explore For Oil
—Continued from Page 2. •
Speaking in a more specific
vain, I would like to touclr briefly
0n two aspects of an exploration
program. At the start of an ex-
ploratory program, geological
Studies are carried out, geophysi-
cal tools such as seismograph and
gravity meter are employed, and
above all else leases of oil and
gas rights must be obtained, for
without the leases the incentive
to explore is absent. There is no
sense in spending a lot of money.
lobking for oil unless you can,
through lease arrangements, se-
cure a fair share of what you,
may find through your efforts.
The more common forms us-
ed to -day provide fpr a "drill,
pay or quit” type of obligation
on the lessee. The exploring com-
pany has the right to explore, he
has the right to drill, but at the
end Of each year of the primary
term he must either be drilling,
or he must pay his rental, or he
must quit or forfeit his lease.
Imperial doesn't operate any of
its own rigs but rather contracts
its drilling work out on contract.
The contractor is given supervis-
ion and instruction with respect to
the drilling program, the depths
at which size of hole is reduced,
the amount and position of casing
to be set, and proeedures fn the
event of shows of oil or gas. Of
a.speciai concern in the drilling
program is the care taken to seal
off all surface water by an ade-
quate
de-
u to casing
q a g In Huron
County Silurian production
may
be obtained generally at depths
below 1500 feet, and Trenton pro -
dual= below 3000 feet. '
If production of oil is obtained,
production is taken in stook tanks
on the well site and arrangements
made to transport to the nearest
refinery. If production'of gas is
encountered and it is determined
to be in commercial quantities,
with suffdeient deliverability ar-
rangements would be made to
provide for an 'outlet for the gas
to some industry, community or
public utility company. Tf the Well
is Completed as a producer, the
well site willbo cleaned up and
permanent production facilities
installed.
In conclusion, T Would like to
emphasize again that the eicpiar
ation and search for oil and gas
is a risky and speculative btlsi-
ness. It requires patience, skill,
applicatioll Of scientific techni-
titles, financial responsibility and
oertain amount of luck. While
our results in adroit County to
date have 1101 been sufficiently
encouraging to make any glow-
ing forecast for the future, yet
We intend to beep working, ex-
ploring and searching In this
area' n the hope that finally our
effor • will prove to .be justified.
