Students without jobs are returning to school trustee says A province -wide phenomenon is also occurring in Huron County. The Huron County Board of Education learned enrolment at secondary schools in the county has in- creased by 127 students over what was anticipated. Figures presented by the personnel committee at the board's Oct. 4 meeting show that enrolment was expected to be 3,843, but as of Sept. 13 was actually 3,970. "How come all of a sudden we have higher enrol- ment'.," queried Trustee Jean Adams of Goderich. "'rhe students can't find work and they find a need for higher education," replied personnel comrruttee chairman John Elliott of Blyth; In response to these increases, one -and a half addi- tional teachers have been hired at Central Huron Secondary -School, Clinton and one teacher has been hired for Seaforth District High School for the first semester. Director of education John Cochrane told the board that actual enrolment figures from Sept. 30, figures used for grant purposes, have not yet been finalized and will be presented to the board at a future meeting. Authorities create work.. In -stream work ,can take many forms or a com- bination of several. Narrowing the stream width with vegetation and other natural materials such as boulders or log's speeds up the stream flow aLitl makes the water deeper. Other improvements to make the stream more habitable for trout include using wing deflectors, half -log structures or floating -log struc- tures. ' These methods also help speed up the stream flow, ,� make eddies and back -eddies which are considered beneficial to the stream, provide spawning and nursery areas and hiding spots for the fish. The side -stream . work involves improving the vegetation growth along the banks and sometimes thinning the vegetation. Besides assisting in soil ero- sion, this vegetation; in the form -of -grass, shrubs and' trees, provides a cover for the stream to keep it cool in warm weather and encourages , insect growth which in turn feeds the fish. In southern Ontario, most of the land streams are found in are held -by private landowners. To enable this work to proceed, approval is sought from the landowners. In the Maitland Valley area, this is one of the tasks of biologist Ken Maroiiets. Along St. Helen's creek, three landowners'~ approval was sought and given. Wayne and Cathy Todd gave their approval for the work to be done and have no complaints with the crews or any other part of the program. They are hoping the work will improve the fishing oppor- tunities in the. stream. . In some cases, five-year legal agreements are drawn up with the landowners. Individual sites deter- mine the need for these agreements. The agreements also vary. The average agreements has the ministry and conservation authorities maintaining the work for one year and thenit is-t'he responsibility ofthe I i downers. It is the airn of the ministry and the con- servation authorities that once the landowners see the benefit of the work, they are encouraged to keep up the maintenance of the property. This short-term` `project will run from Sept. 7 to Dec. 1. Music program approved BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE The Huron County Board of Education has approved an instrumental music pro- gram for Howick Central Public School. At the board's Oct. 4 meeting, Howick school principal Bruce Robertson made a presentation ex- plaining the money for..the instruments would come from" fund raising within the school. "'"We feel we can finance it without help from the Huron County Board of Educa- ,tion," said Mr. Robertson. In his presentation, Mr. Robertson noted the school started with $1,135 in its music account and raised r 1 1 1 1 1 L $2,400 in a chocolate bar drive. More money will be raised in hot dog sales at the school and parents donating $10 a month for interested students. The instrument music pro- gram will start in grade seven this year and move in- to grade eight next year. Mr. Robertson said he has the, staff to teach the pro- gram.

A Strongly -worded report to the Cabinet contends that welfare payments should be increased across-the-board before November, because benefits have, in recent` years, been di'stributed unevenly and have actually penalized some of the most needy people in Ontario. The report, drafted ' by -the Ministry of Community and Social Services in June has not been made public. "There is a need for a detailed examination of the Ministry's rate structure to ensure that, within available funds, the Ministry is meeting needs equitably", says the report, and policy experts have warned that the government will come under severe attack if welfare increases are not tied to inflation. According to the report, "Rates are coming under criticism for their over-all level of -adequacy. This criticism will be heightened by any rate adjustment that is less than inflation." In spite of the fact that his own officials have recom- mended across-the-board increases for the more than 400,000 Ontarians who receive family benefits and welfare, the Minister is expected to apply any in- creases on a selective basis. yacht club near Kingston. He termed the $120,000 which the • provincial crown cor- poration will spend for the use of facilities at the.club a "shameless expenditure" which sets a wretched example for Ontario's poor. Refusal of treatment to rape victim It's been announced that the Ontario Hospital Association is to review emergency services for rape victims after a 21 -year-old woman was refused treat- ment at Humber Memorial Hospital in Toronto. The doctor on duty in the emergency department at the time is to face a "review from his peers", according to the hospital and the Attorney -General has or- dered a police report on the case. The Ontario College of Physicians and Surgeons has undertaken to "make enquiries about this case A spokesman for the Rape Crisis Centre has charged that it is "quite common" for treatment to be refused all over Metro Toronto, and the police have stated that they would welcome a Ministry of' Health investigation because doctors at the hospital have been refusing to treat rape . victims for four or five years. Restraint Program Opposition Members, continue to press the government on the subject of OHIP fees, asking why these have not been included in -the restraint program, as ad- ministered prices. Under what Section of the Act are they excluded, asked David Peterson. „ While the Liberal Caucus has supported the restraint program as a first step, we have proposed that a com- mittee be struck to consider a number of areas where improvements were necessary, including the following: broader controls, and articularly tougher estraint on administered riees.;.. a rollback of doctors' fees next year to 5 percent, if UTDC and the p Yacht Club r —0bera -'Deptity—leader`-p Sean Conway has demanded that the Ontario Government crack down on the Urban Transportation Develop- ment Corporation, which has signed a 20 -year leasewith a WORK CLOTHING AND WORK BOOTS TOP QUALITY / PRICED RIGHT SMITH'S FARM & GARDEN CENTRE 82 SOUTH ST., GODERICH '524-8761 —shopping on a budget!.... shop these food savings GRADE "A"'BEEF BLADE ' OR SHORT RIB ROAST 1 .29.
