Because the Huron County
Board of Education exceeded
the ceiling on per pupil operat-
ing expenditures for elementary
school purposes by an amount
of $16, 003 or $1.99 per pupil
in 1972, the amount of general
legislative grant payable to
the board for 1974 for element-
ary school purposes will be
reduced by $4,695.
Mr. Cochrane reported that
an invitation has been extended
to parents and trustees to visit
the recently renovated Exeter
Public School and the new
addition which has been compl-
eted.
An opportunity class has been
organized at J.A.D. McCurdy
School, also a senior opportun-
ity class at Howick Central
Public School consisting of 16
boys and girls who receive
practical training as well as
academic instruction, using
the portable as a classroom.
Kindergarten children at.

is now in operation at Colborne
Public School and will be at
Blyth's school later this month.
Instruction in instrumental
music is being given four tunes
a weel. at Hohnesville School,
in 35 minute classes. At a
total cost of $1, 307 rental for
the year, 29 instruments have
been rented. Participating stud-
ents are paying $45 each and
the students' council, local
Women's Institute and service
clubs have assisted to provide

Herb Turkheim, of Zurich,
and Mrs. Marion Zinn, of
Lucknow were named to the
Educational Leave Committee
which will bring in a report
by December on leaves by
teachers requested for 1975-76.
The administrative staff were
told they could have November
11 as a holiday the same as the
pupils, teachers and clerical
staff in order to attend Rememb
ranee Day Services.
D.J. Cochrane, Director of
Education, advised the board
members that the editor of the
Goderich Signal Star had made
" a very inaccurate report"
on her column, Dear Readers,
on an accident when an area
youth sustained an eye injury
in a basketball game at Central
Huron Secondary School at
Clinton on September 13.
Mr. Cochrane reported he
received a telephone call
from the Goderich editor out-
lining the mother's version of
the incident and asking for
comment,. He said he interview
ed school personnel and the
administrator at the Clinton
Public Hospital and called the
editor to "fill her in on the
details of the incident" which
apparently were not in her poss-
ession. He was informed the
newspaper column had already
been written.
Mr. ' Cochrane outlined the
details of the care given the
youth stating he hacl in his
possession signed statements
from the principal of the
school, the teacher of the phy-
sical education class, and the
attending nurse at the Clinton
Public Hospital attesting to
the accuracy of the reported.
Mr. Cochrane said that, "In
my opinion the injured student
was treated quickly, sensibly
and in a manner that was in
his best interest, and the adv-
erse criticism to which the
school and the board have been
subjected was totally unwarrant-
ed."
Asked by the press represent-
ative at the conclusion of the
meeting Friday as to whether
they would stand for re-elect-
ion at the December municip-
al election the following trustee
responded in the affirmative;
vice-chairman, Wilfred Short -
reed, of Walton; J.P. Alexand-
er of Wingham; Kenneth Cooke,
Clinton; Mrs. Mollie Kunder,
Seaforth, Harry Hayter, Dash-
wood, Herb Turkheim, Zurich;
and John Westbrook, Clinton.
Clarence McDonald, of
Exeter, said "Too early to
decide, " and John Henderson
of Seaforth, "Maybe. " John
Broadfoot, Brucefield said he
was retiring. Mrs. D. Wallace,
Goderich, Mrs. M. Zinn, Luck•
now, and Donald McDonald,
Brussels, left the meeting early,
Chairman E. Cayley Hill,
Goderich, and Charles Rau,
Zurich, did not attend the
