Criticizes policy
Continued from front page
of screening applicants and
handling interviews and had
accepted their recom
mendations.
The director pointed out
that the board’s hiring policy
states that a certain per
centage of the applicants for
any position as non-teaching
personnel had to be in
terviewed. It does not say
what percentage should be
nor does it stipulate that a
person must live in Huron
County to be eligible to work
for the county.
He said the person hired
was an exceptional typist
and was a graduate of the
one year secretarial arts
programme at Fanshawe
College in London. He added
that she was the best of the
applicants for that position.
Cochrane said he detected
“innuendos” from com
ments from trustees and he
“resented the implication
that we (administration)
pulled some kind of shady
deal”. He said that “simply
didn’t happen” adding that if
the board wasn’t happy with
the policy it could “change
it and we would follow any
policy set down".
Board chairman John
Elliott said he got the im
pression that trustees were
not blaming anyone for
anything suggesting that
possibly the board should be
looking at its own education
system. He said if the
schools in Huron are not
turning out peoplequalifiedto
handle jobs they’re being
trained for the board should
find out.
Goderich trustee Dorothy
Wallace said that if the
board was going to “try to
have an effective system,
criteria for jobs should be
qualifications not where
applicants come from”.
Elections
Continued from front page
,areas for school board
representation..
Present Huron County
Board of Education member
for Hay, Zurich and Hensall,
Herb Turkheim is facing the
callenge of Minnie Noakes
of Hensall, Mrs. Noakes is a
former reeve of Hensall.
Eligible Middlesex
Separate School supporters
in Lucan, Biddulph and parts
of London and McGillivray
townships will be choosing
between incumbent Pat
Crunican and challenger Ted
Giesen.
In Grand Bend voters will
choose between Gerald
Edwards and Walter King
on the Lambton County
Board of Education.
“Surely we wouldn’t hire
someone not qualified for a
job just because they come
from Huron County,” she
said.
Elliott pointed out that the
persons’s place of residence
would not necessarily enter
into it unless two applicants
were considered equal. He
said in that case if one was
from Huron and another
wasn’t the Huron applicant
would get the nod.
A suggestion from
Colborne trustee Shirley
Hazlitt that the board form
an ad hoc committee to look
into hiring policy was
passed by the board.
Hensall arena
Continued from front page
I hope it shows.”
He said this was the second
time he helped open a
Hensall arena as he was a
member of the Seaforth
hockey team that played the
first game in the old arena.
Keys for the centre were
turned over to Peter James
of C. C. Parker and
Associates, the centre’s
engineers by president of
Logan Construction Oliver
Gaffney.
James then turned the
keys over to the chairman of
the Hensall Parks Board
Wayne Reid.
Taking part in the ribbon
cutting ceremony were
Knight, Luther, McKinley,
Riddell, Sinclair and Doug
Mann of Thompson’s
representing the financial
contributers to the project.
Following the ceremony, a
wine and cheese party was
held.
On Thursday night, thp
centre was jammed for the
tours and public skating
while on Friday evening a
good crowd turned to see the
game between the Zurich
Buckeyes and Hensall.
Saturday evening saw
some exciting hockey played
as the Hensall-Zurich
Combines Junior D team
from the early 1960’s
defeated the Zurich Old-
timers 9-3.
Water main
cuts supply
Residents of Ailsa Craig
and area found themselves
temporarily without water
Monday. A ruptured water
main just north of town
caused the water stoppage in
the early afternoon. The
breakage was located
shortly after and repairs
started but it was almost
midnight before service
could be restored.
FINAL DUTY — Exeter Mayor Bruce Shaw performed one of his final public duties before
