Keller) Huron County Board of Educ- ation will send a request to the board of governors of the CBC requesting that the program Sesame Street be retained on Canadian television. Board members learned the program is highly valued by school officials and teachers and is used each day in many kindergarten classes throughout the county. Associate superintendent W. H. Kinsely and board member Dr. A.B. Deathe both advised the board they had watched the program recently and found it uniquely successful in teaching children the basics of learning, "I don't think we could prov- ide anything to compare with it in a pre -kindergarten program" observed Dr, Deathe. The program Sesame Street has been suggested as one which could be dropped next season because it is an all-American production which provided no spaces for commercials, thus making it a highly expensive program to carry. There was a further allusion during the board meeting to the problem caused by the CRTC's ruling in an attempt to cut down the amount of American prog- ramming in Canada - though purely in fun. Referring to his appearance with the Director of Education John Cochrane Monday, March 8 on CKNX-TV during Educat- ion Week, board chairman Rob- ert Elliott remarked, "They are really scraping for some Can- adian material for television."

Steer This Way BY LARRY SNIDER Soviets hope to triple their automobile production during the seventies, which will bring the ratio to about 1 car per 70 people. Car shaky in reverse? Probably nothing more than a loose adjustment on the reverse band of the transmission. Do not leave your registration or license in your car. Thieves can use them, too.
