THIS AD SPONSORED BY: Richard Bedard Construction Dominion Hotel', Zurich their children will use thegym every six weeks. The board decided the group was an educ- ational one and as such came under their usual policy on the use of school buildings. Thirty-two teachers and care- takers fromthe Huron -Perth Roman Catholic Separate Schools are attending a first aid course in Stratford, organiz- ed by John McCarroll, physical education consultant to the board and George Nutt of Wood- stock. Additional classes will be organized for board personnel in South Huron, Seaforth and Wingham area, the HPRCSS Board heard at the meeting in Seaforth Mondaynight. Trustee Joe Looby, whose interest last fall led to the course being offered, asked for a list with the names of those taking the course. "Are any bus drivers taking it, Michael Connolly, Kippers area trustee, wanted to know. Director of Education John Vintar said that bus drivers were informed about the course. Big dogs running at large in the school yard at St. Patrick's School, Dublin, are worrying teachers and parents, Sister Florence Kelly, principal of the school, told members of the Huron Perth Roman Cathol- ic Separate School Board in a letter read at the board meeting Monday night. Children have been knocked over and in one case a child was bitten. Board members decided to send a letter to Hibbert Town- ship Council asking thein to prohibit dogs running at large in the village of Dublin." "That ought to solve things," trustee Joe Looby of Dublin commented. In a Committee of the Whole session after the regular meeting board members formed a com- mittee "to study alternatives for board facilities in the future Board chairman David Teahen, of Stratford said. The Board's present lease on its office in the Seaforth property owned by R.S. Box expires on January 31, 1976. Members of the committee are chairman Michael Connolly, Kippers and Ron Marcy, Strat- ford and Bill Kinahan, Kings- bridge. The presence of two princip- als as observers at the board meeting, Adrian Pontsioen of St. Joseph's, Clinton and Paul Nickel of St. Ambrose, Strat- ford, prompted Trustee Looby to say that he thought it would be a good idea for principals who attend board meetings to be invited to speak. "They could come prepared to talk about their schools, what they like and don't like, " 25TH Wedding Anniversary DANCE FOR Gordon A Jean Munn SATURDAY, FEB. 15 9 P.M.
