Plumsteel, Principal of the Seaforth District High School, there will be more pupils using bus facilities this year than was the total enrollment of the school two years ago when he first assumed the principalship of the school. He stated that he expects nearly 250 pupils to en- roll next Tuesday when the school reopens. This will be an increase of about 35 from last year. Five buses will again be requir- ed to trar•3por•t the pupils. The routes as outlined on page 7, will mean a total of nearly 200 guiles to be covered each day. The co- operation of the pupils being on time for the buses each morning has been excellent during the past year.. according to Scott Habkirk, who has the bus contract. He hopes that it will continue, be- cause this co-operation helps the drivers considerably to maintain their schedules.
