SoI a tos General Geoli a ?I`agi<gr dnd OPP
Co� unissioner Art hie rerguson said recent-
ly
ecently they were delighted with the results of a
campaign designed to encourage more
women to seek out careers as police of-
ficers.
"A ,provincialtour conducted by Con-
stable Sherry Baker has been an
Outstanding success in attracting women
applicants interested in police careers,"
Taylor said.
!Constable Baker, an OPP officer for 10
years, was recently named Affirmative Ac-
tion Manager for the Ontario Ministry off the
Solicitor General. The OPP is part off that
ministry.
Commissioner Ferguson had said before
Constable 'Baker's tour that in the 75th an-
niversary year of the OPP, a priority would

the interest
The Southwestern District of the Cana-
dian Cancer Society has surpassed its fund
raising goals for this year's campaign,
District Campaign chairman Morley Taylor
has announced.
The 1984 objective had been set at
$1,200,000 for the district, which encom-
passes Elgin, Huron, Kent, Lambton,
London -Middlesex and Oxford counties.
Over $1,251,00 has been raised to date, with
almost three months still remaining in the
current campaign year. The overall 'provin-
cial objective is $13.2 million.
"We're running about 15 per cent ahead of
last year at this time," Taylor said. "The
results are a real tribute to the hard work of
our unit organizers, and especially our
volunteer canvassers, whose long hours
have been so well rewarded by the response
of the public. It's been a total effort - on
everyone's part."
Fund raising activities have included
"Great Rides", daffodil sales, teas, fashion
shows, and the main door-to-door can-
vasses. "The number of events throughout
the district increased,this year, and I think
that helped to put us over the top," Taylor
added.
While most of the funds collected will sup-
port canc.er research through the National
Cancer Institute of Canada, Taylor said that
approximately 30 per cent of the money
raised will be spent in the areas of patient
services and education.
"These local programs are not as well
known to the public as cancer research, but
they are integral parts in our overall efforts
to battle cancer and its effects."

s tour has shown that
'ere" c'Onunissioner
Fergu5on s (d ;:aotlnf lthat the number of ap-
p1icationsf im *open bas increased by 170
per cent forthe first six months of 1984 as
compared to the same period in 1983.
Solicitor General Taylor noted that the
percentage of women applicants for OPP
policing jobs has increased from less than
nine per cent to 21 per cent this year.
"This as. a welcome indicator of increasing
interest by young women in what is a
.challenging and rewarding career oppor-
tunity," the Solicitor General said.
Commissioner Ferguson said that no
quota for the number of female recruits has
been set,. and the. Force wants the best
qualified applicants regardless of sex. •
Constable Baker said she was ap-
preciative of the assistance of the media in
her efforts to encourage women to. consider
police work as a career options.
During her tour of' 40 Ontario
municipalities, Constable. Baker par-

dent of business and finance seem to be do-
ing a good job. •
"In summary, the senior administrators
are valuable and valued members of the
system".
The co-ordinators and consultants are
also doing a good job, but according to the
report, some principals identified concerns
with the role of this support staff.
"Because of the range of duties assigned
to the Superintendent of Education it has
become necessary to delegate many of the
administrative duties to a person originally
hired to be a consultant. This has resulted in
a reduction of the time spent serving as a
consultant," the report states.
The trustees role was also considered in
the report. The report says the trustees are
doing their duties as required.
Trustees and some clergy .discussed the
influence of administrative staff over' deci-
sions
ecisions made by the board; However, all
trustees agreed administration should be
serving as advisors to the board.
Communication, as it relates to such
between the board and staff, administration
and staff, the board and the public and the,
schools and the public was also noted in the
CEDSS report as an area where some im-
provement is necessary. .
The recommendations in the report will
be studied by a board ad hoc committee
made up of chairman Ron Murray, vice-
chairman Michael Moriarity, director (ac-
ting) John McAuley and superintendent of
education (acting) and chairman of the in-
ternal team Blanchette. .
This ad hoc con»nittee will set up general
plans for establishing the CEDSS r9com-
mendations over a• five.year period.
There were about 80 ratepayers randomly
surveyed for the CEDSS report as well as
- parents, teachers and principals.
