An unusually brief meeting of the Huron County Board of Education was held Monday evening in Clinton, Main business for the evening was the approval of new policy governing students wishing to transfer from school to school under the jurisdiction of the board. It was decided that these matters should be handled by the director of education and the administrative staff with reports on the decision to go out to the trustee or trustees representing the area in which the student resides. John Broacifoot argued that the board should be advised of these decisions but his point was not supported by the remainder of the board members. George Parsons of Goderichfelt that few board members other than the trustees directly involved would be concerned about transfers of this nature and Mrs, Mollie Kunder stated that in her opinion, the new policy was being for- mulated to put an end to forcing the board members to take valuable time to "hash out" such matters.

Over 35 members and guests attended the first meeting of the newly formed Huron and Perth Chapter of the Council for Exceptional Children held in Stratford on Thursday, A highlight of the program was a panel discussion on com- munications between the schools, medical and social agencies. The panelists were: Miss Helen Videan, school vice-principal, Goderich; Miss Louise Robert- son, Supervisor of County Health Nurses for Perth; Mrs. Frances Greene, Supervisor of caseworkers for Perth Children's Aid Society;' and Mr. Edward Rooney, special education consultant, Seaforth, The next meeting will be held in Seaforth on November 25 with more meetings tentatively planned to be held in Goderich on March 5, 1972, and in Listowel on May 4, 1972. Edward Rooney of Seaforth is president of the chapter. Association to attend a social evening at Saltford Valley Hall, October 15, Chairman Robert Elliott noted this was the second social invitation received by the board members from the teaching staff, and urged trustees to be present if at all possible. Elliott noted that in the interest of better communications, this effort should be made by board members. The winter course in social studies for teachers is going on every Tuesday evening and several Saturdays at Clinton Public School it was announced, There are 129 enrolled with 98 of these Huron County teachers working with the Huron board. "A number of the principals are taking the course," reported Jim Coulter, superintendent," and I commend them for it," The board reviewed the agenda for the next regular meeting • which is scheduled for Monday October 18 at Central Huron Secondary School beginning at 3:30 p.m. This is the first of a series of special afternoon meetings which are designed to promote increased board insight into education aspects in Huron County schools. The first topic is "Improving Communications." The board members noted that the public is cordially invited to these sessions as they are to all open board meetings. Some discussion was heard at the meeting concerning political activities in the five county high schools now that some students, particularly those in the senior grades, are of voting age. Particular discussion centred around preliminary plans for a pancake breakfast on the lawn at South Huron District High School with Premier William Davis and Hon. C. S. MacNaughton present. While the board, by recorded vote, did after lengthy discussion grant approval for this activity to be held on the school grounds it has been since learned that the meeting which was sponsored by a group entirely separate from the school, was planned for another location in Exeter. In general discussion by board members, it was agreed that if one candidate is invited to speak to the student body at a high school during an election cam- paign, all political candidates in the election should be extended the same courtesy. It is noteworthy that on Tuesday, Hon. C. S. Mac- Naughton was at South Huron District High School as well as Goderich District Collegiate Institute. Paul Carroll, NDP candidate, has also accepted an invitation to visit both schools and the Liberal candidate, Ken Duncan, has been contacted concerning a date for meeting with the students at Exeter and Goderich. There is no report on similar activities in other county schools. The doctor told him to slow down, so now he's chasing older women. "The high cost of living is an issue in this election not simply because the NDP has chosen.it as one of its themes, but because the ordinary voter in Ontario wants .it discussed by the two parties contending for power," NDP candidate Paul Carroll said at a party meeting in Clinton this week. He charged that the Con- servatives have consistently refused to come to grips with the problem in "their" Ontario. The Goderich reeve pointed out the NDP has repeatedly called for price reviews and in- vestigations of increases in the cost of gas, home fuel oil, steel and milk, while the Con- servatives have consistently refused to do so, denying that it is the government's responsibility to protect the consumer. He said milk has become one item playing havoc with the family budget as it has increased 18.3 percent over the past five years. "Milk deserves our scrutiny because it is a product for which the Conservative government has already established partial machinery of control," he ex- plained. "The Ontario Milk Marketing Board could have all the power a government agency needs to influence every step of the producer-to-consumer route. Indeed, the OMMB now plays the role where the producer is con- cerned. Farmers have no control whatsoever over their dealings with the wholesaler and retailer. The OMMB tells farmers who can produce the milk, in what quotas, where and how much they can sell, and sets the price the dairies must pay, "However the OMMB refuses to play the same role between the dairies and the consumer, with the result that the farmer recei ves a half cent more for raw milk, dairies use it as an excuse to increase the consumer price one or two cents a quart. Mr. Carroll said the New Democratic Party would take the following four steps: 1. Most important of all, we would establish a price review board which would require companies to justify increases, and publicly disclose their balance sheets. If the board's investigations find the increases are unjustified, they will be rolled back, 2. As a protective measure, so that it never need reach the Prices Review Board, we would establish a formula so that fluctuations in farm production costs could automatically be reflected in prices paid to producers. 3. The Milk Marketing Board would monitor dairy balance sheets to assure that an excessive proportion of the consumer's dollar is not dissipated to the middlemen, thereby reducing the income of the producer. 4. The OMMB is the natural agency to keep statistics on the relevant factors in the producer- to-consumer milk route so that it is able to evaluate all changes affecting the cost of milk at any stage. The government can attack to protect producers and consumers together. It is now time for AC- TION.

The Exeter arena and Com- munity park will be a busy spot this weekend as the Exeter Kinsmen club presents Kin-Fest '71, a three day event that is sure to please the entertainment tastes of all ages.

Traffic lights — Continued from front page had planned the system and was prepared to supervise in- stallation when council intended to undertake the work them- selves. His services are no longer required, and Shaw noted that Champ had made two special trips to Exeter and had spent considerable time on the project. Reeve Boyle said he would second the motion if Shaw reduced the amount to $50, which was done. However, other members opposed the plan. Mayor Jack Delbridge said he would be willing to pay for whatever was charged, but he didn't think council should hand out any gifts. A vote on the Shaw-Boyle motion ended in a 4-4 tie and Mayor Delbridge defeated it. A motion was then presented by Councillor Jermyn and Cudmore that council write Champ and thank him for his assistance and advise they would pay him for the services ren- dered, Shaw, who had explained that Champ didn't want any reim- bursement, said the London man would be insulted by council's letter. • At middle age, your tripping becomes less light and more fantastic.
