THE .PROsEks. POST NOVEMBER 12, .r19$Q .9
A Huron County Board
of Education, truttee has
charged that student
councils actively in
in 'soliciting are
taking dollars' away from
businessmen who .pay
taxes to snppoit the
education Pystem,
Herb Turkheim,
trustee for the township '
of Hay and the villagei of
Zurich and Hensall, told
, the 'board Monday that
stpdent council fund-
rai sing' .efforts are often
taking tipsiness '.from the
_community,
"South "Huron Secon-
dary School students are
soliciting orders for
grapefruits and oranges
and I just can't go along
with it," he said, "They
are taking money away
from the businessman,
who pays taxes to support
eduation."
Turkheim said one of
the students indicated the
council could realize a
$5,000 profit from the sale
of grapefruit and orariges
which, he 'said, was,
competition
"The business should
go to the food stores andit
is wrong to let students
compete with them," he
claimed. = "They are
taking a • lot .of business
away from the local
businessman and that
can hurt the stores."
Goderich and Colborne
Township trustee, Shirley
Hazliti, asked what the
difference was in selling
fruit, candy or chocolate
bars.
"It just isn't fair,"
Turkheim retorted.
"They are paying for the
students through taxes.
and then they get com-
petition ' from the
students." •
Director of Educatiori,
John Cochrane, said the
board policy dictates that
students must give' fair
value, for money
received. And in that
respect, he said, the sale
of grapefruits and
oranges is legal.
Hazlitt told trustees
that curtailing student
involvement in fund
raising ventures was not
the answer. "We want
them 'to h4ye initidtiive
but we keep eliminating
things for • them to do.
• What's left?"
Turkheim said that
distributors talk student
councils into the
:proposition and take the
money out of the corn;
rnunjty. He introduced a
motion to review the
policy of selling but it was
defeated by a narrow
•margin.
Board vice.-chairman,
John Henderson, said
that _vending machines
fall into the same
,category.
