A plan . for computerized
payroll processing was adopted
by the •Huron County Board of
Education after its business
administrator, Roy B. Dunlop,
stron.gly recommended
acceptance of a proposll by the
Canadian Imperial Bank of
Gammerce.
Robert M. Elliott of Goderich
Township chaired the board's
meeting held in the board room
of Central Huron SeCondary
School, Clinton. Board
Chairman John Lavis of Clinton
was ill and unable to attend. It is
the first board meeting he had
missed.
Cost of the. data processing
for the boards 700 employees
will be about $2,590 a year,
according to Mr. Dunlop who
said the figure is based on a
nfenthly-payroll with a charge of
about 25 cents per cheque. If,
more frequent pay.TolLs are
needed, the cost will, increase
accordingly, Mr. Dunlop said.
There is no contract and the
agreement can be terminated at
any time:
The Royal Bank of Canada
was ,the only other bank to
submit a proposal, Mr. Dunlop
said,- noting that others in the
county were nOtified but do not
have such service available.
Giving his reasons for
favoring the Bank of Commeice
proposal, the business
administrator mentioned:
- Courier service will be
supplied.
- The superannuation
commission will accept a
magnetic tape record of required
teacher data directly from the
bank twice a year.
- Discussions with
administrators in other counties,
showed good results.
- The bank can supply the
board a comprehensive cost

department and type of expense
and can give countywide

• -The nk of Commerce has
considerable experience in the
area, having developed its
accounting system more than
four years ago. Now hundreds of
customers use the service
provided by the bank's five Data

D Vv 5eo_tt, regional director'
of education for • Western

Brumfield exceeds
enrollment
Huron Centennial „School at
Brucefield is one of several
cOunty schools nearing or
exceeding capacity enrollment,
said D.. J. Cochrane, director of
education, at a school board
meeting Monday.
4 0
Using projected enrollments
for September, Huron
Centennial is •slated, to take in
703 students or 100.4 per .-nt
• of its rated capacitj of 700.
The preliminary report on
enrollment was requested by the
board when a deputation from
Blyth asserted 'that the public
schooi there was greatly
overcrowded. To place the Blyth
situation in, the - proper
perspective, the board members
asked to see data on all the
schools.
The statistics Show Blyth's
expected enrollment to be 302,
or 95.9 percent of the 315
capacity: Higher percentages are
shown for: Grey, 96.9;
Turnberry, 97.1; Stephen, 96.2
and Brucefield, 100.4. The
lowest percentage was that of
McKillop, 70.6, with 173 out of
-a maximum 245 students,
"It is obvious from the
figures that four schools in the
county are closer to maximum
• en,rollment than the school irr,
Blyth," the *.report said. "We
recommend that no action be
taken until the administrative
staff studies and reports on the
situation in the whole county."
