He said he tendered his resignation at a special meeting of the road com- mittee on October 28. Dempsey is the second County department head to resign this year with Dr. Harry Ceislar, the County's Medical Officer of Health, resigning in June over differences with county administration. However, Dempsey said his decision to resign was strict - ly of a personal nature. "There's no story there at all. It was a personal decision because of an opportunity offered to me. It may just look like bad timing. The County of Huron has been a good place to work and raise a family. My wife (Mary Ann) was on the Board of Education, and we were well entrenched in Huron County life." "I found working for Huron Coun- ty had its up and down days, but I have no axe to grind. I build bridges I don't burn them," said Dempsey in an interview on October 30. Dempsey said he is taking a posi- tion as the division manager of the Personal Lines Insurance Guarantee Company of North America at their office in Woodstock. he reader To Bill Batten, Editor - I am concerned with an editorial in a recent TA in which the policy of the Women Today organization received critical comment. In requesting a female reporter to cover the Women at Work Conference, an error was made by an employee of Women To- day and for this we apologize. It is not the policy or intention of Women To- day to discriminate against men or male reporters. As a result of your editorial we fear that the public may be misled in their understanding of the nature and purpose of the Women Today organization. As I have experienced it, Women Today is a mutually supportive net- work which through interaction, education and goal -directed activities aims to promote self-esteem, equali- ty and empowerment. Empowerment here is intended to mean the freedom granted oneself through self- confidence and experience to use natural talents, abilities and in- fluence. Membership of anyone - man or woman - who shares such goals is welcomed. Aside from the above it was an in- teresting coincidence that your critical commentary on Women To- day followed an editorial comment which reflects a common and damn- ing social myth. I am referring to your statement that "because of ( men) Tess tolerant (than yourself ) homes such as Survival Through Friendship are necessary". Anyone who thinks about it will see that "less tolerant" only fits if one has adopted a "blame the victim" attitude toward battered women. This myth that a woman is responsible for her hus- band's abusive behaviour reflects society's inequitable and discriminatory bias. If as your editorial suggests the TA takes pride in being non-discriminatory, how about extending it to an awareness of each person's responsibility for their own behaviour even if the person hap- pens to be a man.

T -A photo Lawsuits could keep leachers on their toes This is the age of lawsuits and the education system is often the target of heavy weight court battles. "Suing is the .thing to do today. Rights are applied differently today and teachers are right in the middle of the caldron. You can't help it, you're dealing with adolescents and their minds and emotions aren't ful- ly developed yet." This was the message given to Huron County secondary school teachers by Harry Archer at the Pro- fessional Development Day seminar The Teacher and The Law, held recently in Clinton. Archer, the secretariat with the On- tario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF) deals directly with this topic on a day to day basis. The former high school principal now works as a trouble shooter, as a field secretary who investigates incidents that involve lawsuits and charges made against teachers. He sees the OSSTF involvement in this area as a clear cut role, "Why do we get involved? It may mean the loss of a teaching certificate. We help teachers, but we do not protect im- competent- teachers." This is not to say that Ontario's teaching profession has wide -spread problems in this area. In fact, Archer notes, "Ninety-nine per cent of teachers won't be bothered by legal technicalities. Lawsuits need not hap- pen if you take precautions. Stilt, ac- cidents can happen. You should be prepared and use common sense. Archer, who works in the Toronto region, noted "The larger the metropolis the more the lawsuits." However he warned that this does not exempt small education districts, "in small towns when incidents occur, everybody knows about it and you can't get out because the only road out of town is blocked." Teachers, boards of educations and schools can face a wide range of lawsuits. For the most part, most suits are made against school boards• because it is perceived that they have greater insurance coverage. Successful lawsuits have seen Royal starts next week With the autumn harvest coming to an end., Ontario farmers are busy selecting their prize crops to bring to the fair -- the 58th Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. The Royal opens at Ex- hibition Place, Toronto, November 13 to 22. it's the largest indoor agricultural show in the world! Not to be missed on a visit to the fair is the Foodland Ontario exhibit - a tasting, learning and entertaining experience sponsored by Foodland Ontario and 8 of this province's agricultural marketing groups. Watch as food experts demonstrate how to prepare culinary delights with Ontario home grown products. Taste thc foods being sampled at this ex- hil r sr h as fresh water caviar, a goui elicacy; baked beans with hone) classic; greenhouse vegetal,. a winter treat; and ice cream h goat's milk, for the kid in Di -rover for yourself, "Or , 'e's no taste like home". While sampling tj.e best of the pro- vince, try the Ontario -Cattleman's Association computer game, visit the maple sugar shack, put in a bid at the Variety Club Auction (hid items are always a surprise), pick up some free _information pamphlets and recipe brochures or marvel at the winner of the giant squash competition. Especially for kids, Georgio the Pup- pet will be on site to entertain every day from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. When it's time to "put your feet up and relax", settle into a seat in front of the two-tiered stage. On any given day the audience can expect recipe demonstrations, games and entertainment. All this and more will be at the Foodland Ontario exhibit, Upper West Annex of the Coliseum -- free with ad- mission to the Royal. General admis- sion; • adults $5.50, students $4.00, children ( under 12) $3.00 and seniors $3.00 (November 13th and 14th only). See you at the fair! awards of up to $3.8 million made as was the instance in the case of a stu- dent who played rugby at school and had his neck broken. He was left a parapelegic and the case was cited as one of negligence. Negligence is one of the main claims that result in lawsuits. Others include assault, liability implications associated with alcohol and drug related problems, theft, vandalism, moral cases and a variety of cases surrounding the Teachers' Education Act and contract disputes. Negligence suits often involve field trips or in accidents that have involv- ed transporting students. Lawsuits against athletic activities have been made because injuries have been blamed on inferior 'equipment, or because there was inadequate supervision. Archer warned, "Teachers must be visible to supervise. Some areas like gyms and shops should never be us- ed without supervision." He placed special emphasis on chemistry lab rooms, noting, "Lock your doors if you have any chemicals or bunson burners available. In chemistry labs and in shops, students should wear goggles and aprons. Never leave the students alone. If they won't co-operate thed'send'thetf out of class." He further noted, "Give the students rules. They'll only listen with half an ear, but you've told them. You've done your job." Archer placed great emphasis on "doing your job. Just be careful." He commented, "You have to be a saint to be a teacher. You have to be able to stay sane and still do the job." The teacher must be in control at all times, and, be prepared to take logical, accountable emergency measures when the situation occurs. Teachers must show extreme con- trol and caution in dealing with dif- ficult students. A student may assault a teacher, but, "if the teacher hits him back, the teacher is guilty he has to pay," Mr. Archer warned. Many teachers are hesitant to act in emergency measures, in fear that the first aid action they take could make them accountable for serious repercussions. "Of course you administer first aid," Mr. Archer said. "You're not going to let a kid bleed to death. Often in those cases you can't find the prin- cipal, or the vice principal, the mother or the father. You have to do. something. You can't waste time fin- ding what religion the kid is." Harry Archer is one of the con- sultants that acts as a mediator bet- ween parties when lawsuits have been made or threatened. He said that the OSSTF works to provide fair, legal counselling for the teacher or educa- tion board in question, but he stress- ed, "We're not in the business of pro- tecting bad teachers. Bad teachers exist in the system because of the administration." He encouraged the teachers who at- tended the seminar to do their job to the best of their ability and lawsuit probabilities would be greatly reduced. "If you do you job well, you don't need a fellow like me. The majority of you do a good job. Remember, your primary job is to look after the students.
