went a little haywire.
Anyway to set things
straight, there will be
play readings in the
apartment at MacKay
Hall on Sunday, August 19
and 26 for anyone who is
interested.
Maybe we' should ex-
plain what a reading is. A
group o.f people get
together and read
through plays in
character parts. This
enables the group to find
new plays to perform,
new actors and actresses
and directors. Well that's
the theory behind it;
actually it can be fun.
Anyone is welcome. If
you're too shy for
auditions, try this. The

she will be calling
auditions at the beginning

to hike driver education
rates to keep the course
self supporting. The
increase will compensate
fur a ministry of
education decision to
reduce support grants for
driver education by
approximately 40 per-
cent.
John Cochrane,
\'director of education, told
trustees the board h.ad
little choice but to in-
crease student costs for
driver education. He
explained ,the student
rates were geared to
ministry grants to allow
the board to offer the
course without paying for
it. -
He said the ministry
revised its grants ef-
fective January 1,. 1979
reducing the province's
share by about 40 per-
cent.
Cochrane said the last
time the rates for driver
ed11cakion were altered
was in March of 1976.
Goderich trustee Dave
Gower said he felt the
inrrcaSt. was too much
for one year. He
suggested that the board
approve the increase in
two stages, part of it for
this September and the
remainder the following

Gower pointed out that

increase may cause a
significant decline in the
number of students
enrolling in the course
when school begins.
Bob Allan, a
superintendent of
education, said the ad-
ministration had taken
that into account when it
recommended the in-
crease. ', He said he
realized the increase was
a "sudden change" ad-
ding administration
"have a concern but don't
have a solution".
Cochrane told Gower
he agreed with the
trustees statements but
reminded the board that
the ministry of education
did not give the board a
year's notice • about
reduced grants. He said
all that would happen if
the rates were increased
over two years is that the
board would have a
deficit in its budget next
year.
Allan told the board
that rate's for driver
education ,.courses in
neighboring counties had
been checked. He said the
cheapest rate offered was
$80 with some places as
high as $100. He pointed
out that the reduced
insu•t•ance rates
graduates of the driver
education course receive
still makes it a good deal.
Board chairman John
Elliott told Gower the
driver .educatio'n
program was already
over crowded pointing
out that if people with-
drew from the course

b cause of cost it would
probably still leave a
backlog of students.
The board also ap-
proved increases for
instructors for the driver
education course. The.
instructors will receive 50
cents per student more
this year than last
bringing the rate to .$12.00'
a student. The in car rate
has alsobeen increased

bringing the hourly rate
for car instruction to $8.50
