Doug Fraser,. Chatham's as-

all hiring for the city's public

if the age limit rule is strictly'
enforced this year, He would
pot say how many of the city's
lifeguards and instructors .are
under 17.'
He said it is difficult enough
to find' lifeguards. Older boys
have entered college and need
jobs that pay higher wages.
He said an accepted qualifica-

"Our legislators aren't, that

Nearly 10 lifeguards at the
Brantford municipal pool are
under the new age limit, but
Mr. Donaldson said they' will
not be dismissed. "They are
under contract."
He said the standards, espec-
ially referring to the age limit,
could double the recreation bud-
get since few persons in their
late teens will accept the $20 -a -
week lifeguard salary.
John Campbell, assistant man-
ager of the Kitchener pool, said
only two lifeguards there are
under age, but will be 17 'short-

He saw no way of meeting
the legislation ' requiring one
lifeguard for every 100 bathers.
The Kitichener pool during busy

as 3,500 swimmers, which would
require 35 lifeguards, he said.
