"Filth" taught, man claims
Board looks at books April 25
The Huron County board of
education is planning a special
public meeting hpril 25 at 7:30 to
take a look at a claim that
secondary school, students in the
county are being subjected to
"literary filth" in the books used
in English courses. LloydBalth of
R. R.3, Blyth spoke to the board
at the meeting Monday bringing
the board's attention to' material
from novels taught in secondary
school English literature.
Barth said he didn't really
expect the board members to
know about the filth since their
other vocations combined with
the high number of books used in
schools would not permit them to
read all material but asked who

In opposing the companies'
application, the company
stated that it may be able to
operate "all or part of the
Telontario's companies efficiently
and provide good service to our
customers, and at the same time
reduce our administration
overhead."
It noted that the incorporation
of the services of the three
companies into Bell Canada will
result in a reduction in the
number of independent telephone
companies operating in Ontario.
The Aylmer and Malahide
Telephone Company also
documentedits concern about the
effect of this reduction on "the
strength of the small companies
in negotiating toll and operating
might be responsible for the
selection of books. He conceded
thaA he, as a parent and former
teacher himself, would not have
known of the material in the
books had his daughter not
brought it to his attention.
He referred to three novels
used in schools regularly . John
Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men,
Margaret Lawrence's The
Diviners and J.D. Salinger's
Catcher in ilk-- Rye.
"When I taught school th is
filth was not there," he said.
The forme teacher told the
board that he had written letters
to eduction administrators up to
and including provincial minister
settlements with 13ellCanada and
in setting the standard for
of education Thomas Wells. He
added that everyone up to Wells
had the letters and had said a
"total of nothing".
Mr. Barth pointed out that
former generations didn't use the
kind of language used today by
children. He said if people in his
day, and in the days of the board
members childhood, had written
obscene things on walls in school
they would have been expelled or
at least received a very severe
thrashing.
"If thatwas the case then and it
isn't now who is responsible for
the change?" he asked. "No one
wants to lay blame but someone is
responsible, who selects the
books for classes?"

Superintendent' of education
Jim Coulter said the department
heads in each school meet with
their staff members and 'go over
the material available from the
ministry of education. He said
they select .the books they wish to
use adding there is no prescribed
list of books to choose from as
there was in Mr. Badrth's
teaching days.
A suggestion to turn the matter
over to the education committee
was rejected by trustee Eugene
Frayne who said the subject is
one the entire board should be
looking at: He said that when
situations where '1)04d
members and parents are no
filled in enough on what childret
are being taught, it's time it gal
looked at." Frayne also indicated
, that he felt the board should hold
a special meeting and that it
should be closed to the press and
public.
The trustee later withdrew his
motion for a closed session asking
that it rather be advertised as
public. Board chairman Herb.
Turkheim praised the move and
suggested that English
department heads and principals
be asked to attend the meeting,
