Immediately the new employ- ee began co-ordinating a prog- ram for student jobs. "It will be my job, " he expl- ained at the time, "to both seek out the employers and the students." In the months that followed Mr. Dillon has been doing just that, with considerable success. This year, approximately 500 students registered with the C.M.C. office in search of summer work, last year there were only 260 registered. Of that 500, Mr. Dillon explains, 200 found jobs with little help from the C.M.C. while anoth- er 200 were placed directly in jobs by the Canada Manpower Student Placement officer. "This means we have about 100 students left, " he said, "and I'd like to find work for them as well." Many of this group are younger students, from 12 and 14 years of age and up. Young- er students are best suited for casual employment by home- owners or by farmers needing • harvest workers. There a a number of older, university age students, still available though and Mr. Dill- on feels these students "can do anything and do it well. " Even with twice the number of students registered at the C.M.C. the student placement officer can boast of a 200 per cent increase in placements in 1973 as compared to 1972. ' Girls are more difficult to place than boys, Mr. Dillon explains, but the placement officer has found work for 40 per cent of those registered. "We have enjoyed great co- operation from industries in the area, " the officer notes. "They always seem willing to talk with us. When he took up his position in the spring Mr. Dillon predic- ted that 1973 "should be a good summer for employment" and for those students who registered with his office it has been a very good summer. In addition to employer- employee line ups Mr. Dillon has also been supervising plac- ing those who wish to take part in programs such as cadet and military or Opportunity for Youth schemes. 0 No person can be a great leader unless he takes genuine joy in the successes of those under him. It is the malady of our age that the young are so busy teaching us that they have no time left tb learn. oeerem Vfrite/ Edirov 00060 SO 6 60.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 0 0 0 Dear Sir; It was a pleasure to read a recent letter from the Minister of Natural Resources, in which he alleged that as the MPP for Huron, I had supposedly misled the public regarding the "loss" of Inverhuron Park. I can app- reciate the heavy workload that the Minister must have, however a man in his position really should take greater care in read- ing what I actually said as opp- osed to what he believed I said. This is what I originally wrote in my June 14th column. "Leo Bernier indicated that the expansionof the Bruce nu- clear complex will mean the "loss" of Inverhuron Park." The Minister believes that from that statement I as a new- ly elected Member have mis- led the public. Mr. Bernier's reply is the epitome of what is wrong with the present Queen's Park government. They only like to look at half of the truth. Perhaps, the people of Ontario could find out from the Minister the following points. Why did the Minister not explain that the Ministry for the first time is now handing out pamphlets to campers warning what to do in case of a deadly leak from the station? Why did he neglect to ment- ion that the new recreation centres in Inverhuron are noth- ing more than "gas shelters" in case of a leak? Why did he not state that many campers view the new site as undersirable even with imp- rovements. While Mr. Bernier dances around the definition of the word "loss, " I assert quite clearly that any park that now requires gas shelters and warn- ing pamphlets due to inadequate and faulty planning is quite farnkly a "loss." I do not believe for one moment that Mr. Bernier wil- fully intended to mislead the public about Inverhuron and while I appreciate that Mr. Bernier is under a heavy work- load on the Ontario Legislature, inaccuracies such as thos in his letter, lead to unnecessary mis- understanding, which I am sure, he is as anxious as I am to prevent. Yours truly, Jack Riddell, MPP Huron.
