Huron board at
By WILMA OKE
° At a special meeting of the
Huron County. board of
education Monday night. to
discus the make-up of the
budget, R.D., Dunlop, business
administrator, reported he had
,received the grant structure in
the mail that day.
Mr. Dunlop ' outlined his
proposed method of presenting
the budget and said he could be
ready for a meeting with board
.members next Monday. He
reported numerous calls from
clerks in the municipalities
anxious to have the school
levies. He said the ceilings,
have changed but "this has not
been a .problem with us".
John Henderson, RR 5,
Seaforth, asked for a com-
tliiarison on a school to school
•basi, "When the teachers. send
in their budget, how much >,are
they allowed and how much do
they use?"
D. J. Cochrane, director of
education, ' said that each
school's budget is based on a
formula which guarantees that
each school is treated fairly.
"Are some schools 'spending
more than others?" .Mr. Hen-
derson asked. •
E. Cayley Hill, chairman of
the board, asked the board
mernbers whether they would
accept the paper on a count --
wide basis or if they wanted it
'explained on a school to school
basis. Mr. Henderson said if
the trilstees could have the din -
formation on each school then
they could figure_ it out for
themselves.
,Mr. Dunlop said the infor-
d ation was on large spread
sheets which would have to be
re -typed in order to make
-,copies and it would require•
faring another person to carry
out so much extra work.
Mrs. Marion Zinn Of Rl 2,4
Lucknow, made a motion that
if any individual board member
wanted to see the files that they
be 'permitted ' and then this
Auld he sufficient and the files
would not have' to be
reproduced. -
Herbert Turkheim 'of Zurich
said a motion was not needed'
,since board file.4 are open to
trustees and it would 'not be
necessary to reproduce them:
' "Mr. -Henderson " asked if
equipment was being kept up in
the, schools and if replacements.
;L • were being made, such as
typewriters. .. Mr, Cochrane
„ replied 'that since, the, 'board
. was within .3 per cent of the
budget. last year "we must have
spent all we ,could".
•Mr. Henderson said that the
teachers knew more than board
members about getting equip
trent, and he felt that when he
was asked why a certain thing
wasp•not availablehe should
kno* the answer; without
having to bother the board of-
fice for that information.
Mr. 'Henderson voiced his
CS '
concern as to whether all teachers will be hired to the

share of field trips and Mrs. at theme meeting but that after
Mollie Kunder of Seaforth said ''the. budget is completed, and
this was one area she was con- funds are available, then hire
cerned about.
Mr. Hill suggested that when
the 'budget report pis presented
that a ' report be made on
budgetry allowances br ,field
'trips. and that a generalized
report be made on the board's
ability to keep Lip with expen-
ditures. '
Mr, Henderson asked„ that
when the budget is presented
Monday at mb
given threethdays the to emstudy ers be it
before' being asked to,vote it.
Mr. Hill said that' with a $12
to $13 million budget it was
onlyr,reasonable to have time to
study it and that a subsequent
meeting will be held to, vote. •
In order that the principals
may proceed with „program to make a , decision as to
