Back for the reunion were 11 former and present teachers. Talk over school yarns There was plenty of reminiscing when former pupils and teachers got together at the Winchelsea school reunion, Saturday, and the two chaps here probably had as many interesting tales to tell as any of those in attendance, Newton Clarke, left, was on the board when the school was built in 1919 and James Cottle, 95, was the oldest former pupil present at the reunion. --T-A photo By MRS.

Talk over old times at school reunion The weather man provided plenty of damp weather for the Winchelsea school reunion, Saturday, but he failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the 361 former pupils and teachers who registered at the school reunion. Similar to other Usborne schools, the building will be closed as students will be transported to the new central school near Exeter. This photo shows clearly the enjoyment the people had. From the left are: Mrs. Dorothy (Johns) Radcliffe, the former pupil who had the largest family present; Mrs. Carl Weitzman, a former teacher; William Routly, chairman for the event; Mrs. Calder (Lila McCullough) McKaig, who taught there for 23 years; Torn Heywood, a teacher at Welland, who came from the farthest to attend. Mr. Heywood helped his father do the brick work at the school also. --T-A photo h es Road youths atter convention, fair While the future of the two, room building at Winchelsea is still uncertain, it was opined at a reunion of the seetion on Saturday that it would remain Sturdy for many more years-s- even longer than the new Us- borne central school, which will take its place. The opinion was expressed by Newton Clarke, who was a member of the board when the red-brick structure was ereet- ed in 1919. Other members were George Godbolt and Tom Bell. Citizens appointed to the committee for the construction of the $10,000 school were Tom Washburn, Charlie Johns and Sam Brock. After the school was built, two acres was added for a play. ground at a cost of $75. A total of 361 former and pre- sent pupils, teachers and area residents were on hand to hear the history of the school told by Mr. Clarke and to join in the events of the day. Rain and a faulty public ad- dress system tried hard to spoil the proceedings, but they just couldn't beat the enjoyment the folks had in talking over old times at the school. Officials delayed the start- ing of proceedings in the hope the rain would cease, and just after everyone had started to settle down in the school, the rain did curtail. However, no sooner had they started to set things up outside again, than the rain came down and forced the program indoors. A microphone was set up in the top floor and the program was piped down to the first fieor and the basement. It went on the blink midway through and many missed some of the events. William Routly was chairman for the day and noted that Mr. Clarke was the logical person to give the history as he had helped build the new school. "From all reports he helped wreck the old one too," Routly chided. He also explained that as township treasurer, there was no one who had paid out more money for the school than Mr. Clarke. The mason on the school was John Heywood, who was assist- ed by his three sons, Wes, Thomas and Hubert. The lat- ter pair were present for the reunion and Thomas, now a teacher at Welland, won the prize as being the former pupil having come the farthest dis- tance. The history report also noted that a woodshed erected at the old school in 1883 was the same one that was being utiliz- ed on Saturday as a booth by the Junior Farmers. Delving back into the history of schools in Usborne, Mr. Clarke explained that some 105 years ago, the total levy for pub 1 i c school education was $1,'/16.73. A total of $190 of this being raised by SS 6. In comparison, he told the reunion that this year's levy would be about $33,000 for the township. They travelled with abusload from Hamilton which left that city Friday evening and return- ed Wednesday. One day was spent at the World's Fair. Over 1,500 young people of the Christian Reformed denom- ination from Canada and USA were in attendance at the con- vention. Murray Coward, Philip Bern and Allen Johns.
