Larger Enrolment
Expected At
Teachers' College
During the school week immed--
Lately following the' Easter holi-
days, staff members from the
Teachers' College, Stratford, visit-
ed secondary schools in their area
and interviewed candidates for the
one-year course and the two-year
course.
The results of the interviews
were announced by Dr. H. Bowers
at. a meeting of the committee of
selection held in the Teachers' Col-
lege recently. Dr. Bowers report-
ed that 165 students plan to enter
the one-year course and that 43
plan to enter the two-year course.
When these candidates are added
to the group at present in at-
tendance in the first year of the
two-year course and to those who
avill be returningfor their year of
professional training after two
summer courses and two years of
teaching, the total will be well
over 200, This increase in enrol-
ment is particularly gratifying be•
cause of the shortage of teachers
Which, it is predicted, may last for
a number of years.

new million -dollar Canadian plant
at Goderich will be officially dedi-

tos factory provides 36,000 square
feet of manufacturing and storage
area and connects with the new
one-story brick office beading. The

year at which time the company's
operations, formerly conduated at
Melton, Ont., were shifted to
Goderich. The site of the new
plant was selected after a survey
of 33 Ontario communities.
Highlighting the dedication cere-
monies will be the sealing of the
predictions of Goderich's school
children on what the world of 2000
A.D. will be like. The prognostica-
tions of the school children, to-,
gether with those of the plant's
employees, will be put in alarge

fountain pen, placed in a vacuum
sealed box and entombed in the
wall of the new plant.
The burial spot will be sealed
over by an employee's nine-year-old
son, who it's hoped will remove the
seal nearly a half century later.
