Will continue to publish high school exam results After considerable discussion on the subject the board decid- ed to authorize publishing the names of the students who had received passing grades, but not to publish those of students who had failed. The principal also reported that five teachers had been hir- ed on a tentative basis pending the settlement of salary negoti- ations which are still in pro- gress. A letter will be sent to the parents of students who are go- ing to Expo during the school term stating that the school in- surance will not provide protec- tion. Mr. Madill said that in the past, two students had been at- tending a United Nations Sem- inar in London each year at the end of June, sponsored by the board. The board also said that two places have been alloted the Wingham school on the Youth Travel Program this year. They will spend one week in North Vancouver. The principal also recom- mended the hiring of a bus for school trips which cannot be ar- ranged by a double bus run. The board agreed to pay for the ex- tra bus when needed. Financial assistance will be given to two teachers who are taking special courses this sum- mer, which will not improve their category. Mr. Mason, principal of the Lucknow school, reported that a centennial ball had raised $180 for the Expo fund and that "Ca- reer Day", held on Apri113, had been most successful. Mr. Mason went on to ex- plain the details of the Expo trip slated for May 7 to 11. A high percentage of students from the Lucknow school are going. A number of teachers will act as chaperones. In the same con- nection a rummage and bake sale will be held at the school on April 21 and 22 with pro- ceeds for the Expo fund. Mr. Mason said attendance for March had averaged 90.4 per cent.

Letter to the Editor Dear Sir: Last week we had an acci- dent occur at Western Foundry where an employee, Anthony Carter of Lucknow, was struck by a piece of grinding wheel which had exploded and flown apart. The man appeared to be seriously injured as he was knocked out by the object. The action taken by our people was to immediately call the hospi- tal for ambulance service. The ambulance was at the scene of the accident in almost no rime at all and the injured employee was in the hospital with the doctor on the scene in approx- imately five minutes after the accident occurred. I think the people responsi- ble for setting up this extreme- ly efficient ambulance service should be complimented -- it is certainly a credit to them that this type of service is avail- able and a comfort to the peo- ple in the community to know that in cases of emergency they will be looked after in an ex- tremely efficient fashion. Fortunately, the employee was not seriously hurt and we expect him back to work short- ly. Yours very truly, R. W. LeVan.
