It was fate, but will live to see another day. A group of Mennonites arrived at sold to John Gingerich and will be rebuilt near Mount Forest. Only 17 at plan meetingda"`h"' Seventeen concerned citizens attended a public meeting Monday night to question and express feelings about the proposed secondary plan for Blyth. Answering questions were Roman Dzuz, Huron County planning department, Ian Deslauriers, Maitland Valley Conservation Authority, Don Noble village reeve and concillors Helen Gowing, Albert Wasson, Bill Howson and Tom Cronin, Many of the property owners present had land either bordering or in the flood plain mapped for the village along the Blyth creek. Although many maintained that the possibility of flooding as high as the map indicates would never happen, there were those who were concerned about how the mapping would influence their homes and future development in that area, Mr. Dzuz pointed out that the bank along the creek is sloped and is not very suitable for development. "It becomes too costly to develop when sewers have to be pumped for that area" added Mr, Dzuz. Mr. Deslauriers pointed out that the MVCA tries to warn people about building on flood plains. "It is not until they see water running through their recreation room that they have just spent $5,000 renovating that they realize there is a problem" said Mr. Deslaurier. It was pointed out by Mr. Deslaurier that council may not approved any building permit for the flood plain. The federal government restricts mortgages and the Auburn gets ready for big weekend celebrations BY ELEANOR BRADNOCK Colorful pennants were put up across the streets by the decorating committee and the Ontario Hydro employees last week as the first step to get Auburn ready for the four day celebration. 17 flower baskets will be placed on Goderich street along with other decorations. Flower beds have been planted by the Auburn Horticultural Society and the village is taking on a festive air to welcome back all the former residents. Many people are complaining that they do not know the program for the four days but this appeared several months ago in all local papers. The souvenir store in the former variety store opened for business last Saturday 10 to 5 p.m, and did a good business under the direction of Elaine Craig and Laura Law- rence, Lynn Chamney and Mary Arthur assisted during the day. Other assistants are Jackie Collins, Margaret Craig, Shirley Luna, Arva Machan, Nadine Scott, Hillie Blok, Patti de Veau and Regina Campbell.

The few times I have had a lucky feeling I would go and lay my buck down for a Wintario ticket. On the night of the draw I go to my Dad's place to watch the draw. All night long 1 appear confident and say very little about the positive feeling 1 have about this very ticket folded several times over in my pocket. While each number is drawn 1 hold my ticket carefully, concentrating ever so hard on the balls being spit out of those beastly machines. As the draws near an end I become frantic and slowly lose my confident air and take on a feverish look. My ticket by this time is wet from my drippy palms and the numbers arc slowly but surely becoming illegible. At the final draw 1 disgustedly throw the ticket in the fireplace and act as though it is just the silly draw that it is. I ant hoping there are many more people out there who feel the tickets they have bought is a sure one for the big money. Many times l know 1 would be pleased just to win $25. So when 1 lose a few times, I know I don't buy tickets for a long time because my lucky streak just hasn't got it strong enough for winning money. But for those of us who'are discouraged there is a game where the odds are a little better. Mind you the winnings are not great winclfals of cold cash. But you, like me can look forward to playing the penny sale circuit, Next week the Legion Ladies Auxiliary will be holding their annual penny sale draw and that's a place. 1 feel my where my chances are better. If you win you get what you want, If you lose, well how touch are you out? And the good things is that it is only once a year. There is no constant luring by tclevison ads. No bioring posters in windows enticing you to spend your last bit of milk money on winning tickets. A gambler I'll never make. 1 even lose bets that if 1 had known better I would never have attempted. My luck was really good last year at the penny sale. I won four red and white placemats and this year I ant trying for something bigger. Maybe. As for Wintario, there is a draw in Seaforth coming up. Do you suppose that if I buy a ticket the odds would be in favour for ate? Probably everyone in Seaforth is gambling 011 those sante odds too. ***** If you can believe this, we are almost halfway through this delightful month ol'June and everyone has been so busy here in Blyth I just wonder if anyone besides the kids is out there enjoying these memorable sunny days. Don't forget the Blyth Lions Park Barbequc Saturday night. And if the only time you eat well is when you eat out, then the summer country suppers at Memorial Miall this summer as the place for you.

(Standard Photo) We've taken a new look at Ontario's Planning Act. For land's sake. Land. Ontario has over one million square kilometres of it. It's important to all of us that every kilometre is put to the best possible use, now and in the future. That's why Ontario has a Planning Act. It's the legal framework that determines how land should be used, and in what form development should take place. Under the present Act, munici- palities wishing to pass bylaws relating to the use of land go to the Ontario Municipal Board for provincial approval. In recent years, however, the provincial government's role in municipal planning has been changing. A committee established in 1975 took a close look at the Planning Act to see how it could be adapted to suit the changing needs of the municipalities as well as to make the procedures more efficient. After getting reaction to the report of the Planning Act Review Committee, the government has now produced the White Paper outlining its position on revising the Act. The main proposals are: o The province would place more emphasis on advice and assis- tance than on its current role of supervising and approving local planning decisions. 0 Municipalities, where appropriate, would be given autonomy to make planning decisions. This will apply to municipalities which have the resources and capabilities to handle increased planning responsibility. o The public would have better access into the planning process. Municipalities will have to extend public notification procedures to people who will be affected by planning decisions. o To speed up the process, the Ontario Municipal Board would act only as an appeals body. A copy of the White Paper has been made available to municipalities, planning boards and other interested groups.

The property owners at the meeting were the same faces you will see at any function requiring public input and often these are the same ones who dearly love their village and want to see it prosper. But there must be others who feel the same way but put little effort into what they believe. The secondary plan will serve as a future blueprint for development in Blyth and concerns not only present businesses, but families who maysetire here and those whose children will become Blyth's future business people -and property owners. Questions Monday night revolved around the flood plain mapping and although many of the people there had property bordering on the flood area they were not overly concerned with the possibility of flooding. There was some concern about future growth of Blyth and the planners have foreseen that possibility and zoned an area for industrial development on the north and south ends of the village. Blyth's population has remained stable for many years and the planners feel that is an indication of things to come. Although not meant for big dirty industry there is plenty of room for warehouse operations and light industry that could give us jobs and more affluence. Maybe it is the fact that Blyth has not grown that makes people confident that a secondary plan will not effect them. Whatever the reason, everyone had an opportunity to speak out. For those of you who had legitimate reasons for not attending, the plan is reviewed svery five years and, of course, any decision concerning a new development, even if it is a house in a commercial zone, is a council decision. To the editor: Water water water To the Editor, Blyth Standard, and Blyth Village Council The report of last week's Council meeting, in the Standard, puzzled me somewhat, and people have since been questioning me about my water problem. 1 can only assure everyone that is NOT MY water problem, and that i never approached council, nor have consulted mc. Ever shirr, ' owned the propert' East of the old ( r: station, during Spring "run-off" and wh::. :here is heavy rainfall, all the excess water has drained down Dinsley Street from the height of land to the North-East, into the ditch that skirts this property on the east and the south. Until the old railroad ditch was closed, the water continued to drain away to the south-west. After that, the water filled the gulley between my property and the station, and meant that I could not use my land (at the south end of my acre) at all in 1978 - it was too wet to work until it was too late to plant anything. Also, last summer, the edge of the street in front of the house and at the driveway washed lower and lower by this water that has no catch basin to run into as it follows the slope of the street. After several down -pours that dumped much of the water at our front door steps, I paid for a load of gravel along the side of the street, so as to get the water redirected into the ditch. It is obvious that this is not MY problem, nor is it that of the owner of the station. The water that has been creating the problem does not come from either of these two properties. Council should never have allowed a natural water -course that has drained village water for generations, to be closed. Then there would NOT have been any problem. Yours very truly, W.G. Elliott The fire chief says When using anhydrous ammonia on your corn fields always be sure to keep plenty of water on hand to flush off skin and flush out eyes in case of accidental spillage.,_, This is a public service announcement sponsored by The Blyth Standard and written by the Blyth fire Chief Irvine Bowes. Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston We can all change things Strange, isn't it, how soon the crises of today fade in the changing world of tomorrow. It seems only a short time ago that we were in the midst of one of the most violent periods of North American history, partic- ularly south of the border. Rioting was sweeping through the black ghettos of the U.S. It seemed the country was on a verge of collapse. The violence came frighten- ingly close for us here in southern Ontario in the summer of 1967 when the tales of Detroit being aflame cane northward. Detroit: that was almost Canada. I remembered, as 1 heard those stories, having visited relatives in Windsor and having gone down to the riverfront and looked across the narrow strip of water at another country. Now it seemed like another world. And yet it was uncomfort- able too. Would that river be a wide enough moat to stop the violence from crossing " the border as so many other American trends had'? I remember too visiting other relatives a couple of years later and driving through Detroit from the Windsor tunnel heading for a green suburbs beyond the blight of downtown, The signs of the riot were still there, burned buildings and empty, weedy lots in the middle of the city where buildings had stood only a couple of years later. What stores were left were shuttered this Sunday morning with huge iron grates to keep out intruders, That's the image many of us have held of Detroit in the last decade: the Detroit of the riots; the Detroit of Murder City where two people died every day at the hands of others. What brought all this to mind for me recently was a spate of stories on the new image of Detroit, The new Detroit is a city with a downtown area that is once again becoming an exciting place, not a place abandoned by all but those too poor to move out to the suburbs. It's a city where the crime rate has been dropping dramat- ically. The new Detroit is symbolized by Renaissance Centre, a huge downtown redevelopment with an apt name. It was hoped that the act of faith of building a huge new downtown development would bring a renaissance to downtown. That is exactly what it has done, The man generally credited for the building of the centre is Henry Ford 11, the man at the top of the industry that made Detroit well known around the world. Ford t : r uaded bv_those concerned about the future of the city that some dynamic symbol of faith in the city was needed. Ford decided to spearhead that act of faith and put his money and his influence behind the building of the Renaissance Center. There were muny who said the attempt was doomed to failure. Just building buildings wasn't enough, they said. The Center would have to be an armed camp in the middle of enemy territory. People would have to work there perhaps, but they'd escape as soon as possible back to the safe suburbs. But the faith shown by Ford and the others seems to have been justified. The Center has inspired others to reconsider downtown Detroit, By this act of faith in their city, Henry Ford and the others around him may have saved their city. In a place as big as Detroit only a Henry Ford can make that kind of impact on his community. Ordinary people in cities can't have much effect on the future of their community. All they can hope to do is vote on election day and not throw their gum wrappers on the street, The thing I've always found exciting about small town life however is thmt :'ou don't have to be a Henry Ford to have a real effect on your community. In a small town or village any citizen with good ideas and a reasonable amount of drive can accomplish good things. We've seen it in recent years where school teachers and plumbers and other ordinary people have seen things that need to be done and organized and got those things done. We've seen historic buildings saved from the wreckers hammer and restored to let us see a bit of history. We've seen farmers markets started. We've seen day care centres or centres for helping the elderly. We've seen parks built or funds started to help the unfortunate or the handicapped. The opportunity is there in a small town for each of us to contribute. The responsib- ility is there for each of us to make our contribution. We can't sit back like we would in a city and say that there's nothing we can do to make our community a better place. We know there is a way we can contribute. We can have an idea and organize others who support that idea to get things done, or we can join a service group or a church group or other community organizations. Each of us has the potential to bring changes. We may never even have a small portion of Henry Ford's money, but we can have just as mtfch influence in our own community. , , , , , , NEAR BARN — What appears to be an old barn being taken down is really a new barn for another farmer.

Since 1977 when plans for the preparation of the 125th birthday party first started, Mrs. Robertson has been keeping a scrapbook of clippings out of newspaper on the preparation for the centennial, events that have been held to raise money and pictures of her own of the events that have taken place so far. She is keeping this book for ,her four children so that they can look a back and see what was done for Auburn's 125th. The first meeting of the Auburn 125th committee was held in November of 1977 and since then they have held snowmobile poker nativity scene, and there was also a beard growing contest. All of these events and more, Mrs. Robertson has kept track of in her scrapbook. One of the reasons her children will always have this book to remember by is because as Mrs. Robertson says, "I always carry my camera with me. I'm always taking pictures." She also says, "It's kind of nice to have them. We enjoy them. I'm hoping they'll (her children) be able to help with the ISOth (anniversary)." Mrs, Robertson believes that her children will look at the scrapbook and enjoy it. She said Bobby, the Robertson's youngest boy, had been in the Children's Workshop and in the front of her scrapbook she also has pictures of the generations on both sides of the family from 25 years ago. And the Robertson's might have a better reason than anybody else for wanting to remember Auburn's 125th birthday, because it waa Eneas Elkin, Bill Robertson's great-grandfather who founded Auburn, Auburn WMS read about Bhil people The Auburn Presbyterian Women's Missionary Society met for its June meeting at the home of Mrs. Roy Daer with the president Mrs. Wil- fred Sanderson in charge.

Come and visit with us. 1► ti Sugar & Spice by Bill Smiley One of the best ways 1 know to knock the mortar out from between the bricks of your marriage - to uncement things - is to join your spouse in cleaning up the basement/ attic. Take your pick, One's as bad as the other, My wife's been talking about cleaning up our basement for approximately 15 years, I have avoided it by resorting to a number of subterfuges that I will gladly send you on receipt of a certified cheque for five bucks. That may seem a little expensive, but it takes a mighty lot of subterfuges to get through 15 years, But nemesis is unavoidable, It came last week in the form of an ad in the local paper stating that the town trucks would pick up household junk on the following Thursday. It caused a lot of deep thinking in our town, What constitutes household junk? Some chaps I know sat there, pretending to watch TV, while their dark and secret minds conjured visions of chloroforming the old woman, putting her in a green garbage bag, and sticking her out by the curb on Thursday. I'm happy to say that nothing of the sort occurred to me (it says here). But the notice did draw a deep and anguished groan, right from the heels, I knew what was coming, I thought I might be able to stall her until the Wednesday evening before, when we could lug a few things out of the jungle that lies below, and leave the rest to rot, as it has been doing for 15 years, But it was not to be, With complete disregard for my feelings about the sacred- ness, the almost holiness, of weekends, she dragged me down into the underworld, on a perfect day for playing golf, pointed, and coldly said: "Let's go," Oh, I could have sneered, picked up my go lubs, walked to the car, and driven off. 1 wish I had that kind of guts, But I knew I'd come home to a living martyr and six months of sheer hell. I went. Down, That's when 1 began to envy those lucky devils who have converted their basements into rec rooms, If you have one of those, you don't unpack a box, remove the contents, and happily hurl the container down the cellar steps. You get rid of it in some seemly fashion, It's not the grubbing through spider - webs and other assorted dirt that 1 mind, First job 1 ever had was cleaning out latrines, and I have no dignity when it comes to dirt. What gets me is the dialogue. We were in two different rooms, she in the place where the oil tank is, and the Chr mas tree stands, and the paint pots, all with a little in them, and the old drum and cymbals set, and son Hugh's pots and pans and dishes, from the time he was batching, and a lot of interesting artifacts like that. 1 was out in the main cellar, where we normally shovel a path from the bottom of the steps to the furnace, the washer and dryer, It was full of wet cardboard boxes, pieces of linoleum, ancient lamps without shades, ancient shades without lamps, mildewed purses and gunny sacks and jackets, warped curtain rods, ski poles without handles, skis with the harness missing, various pieces of torn plastic, great heaps of old sheets, kept for dusting rags, and similar fascinating items, She hollers: "Bill, I think there's enough green here to touch up the woodwork." I have just lifted an anonymous box full of dirt from when the furnace was cleaned out. The bottom has dropped out, and 1 am contemplating a one -foot mound of furnace excrement on the floor. Me: "That's great, Shove it - uh • that's fine, dear," She, appearing around the door: "You're not going to throw out that perfectly good chunk of linoleum! We might need it to patch the kitchen floor!" Me, sotto voce: "Why don't you make a bikini out of it, you great seamstress, you?" Mc, alarmed: "Hey, you're not going to throw out that gunny sack? 1 had that in Normandy in '44!" She: "It has a hole in it and stinks of mould. And what about these old med- als?" Old medals, my foot, They are precious, They are not exactly the V.C, and the D.S.O. As a matter of fact, one is for joining up, another for getting across the ocean without being sunk, a third for staying alive on wartime rations, known as the Spam medal, and the fourth for getting home alive, But the grandboys like to play with them. And on it goes. We fight over every item, for sentimental or practical reasons. I hate to see a perfectly good breadbox go out, even though it has no handle and doesn't match the kitchen, She gets upset when 1 want to discard the third -last vacuum cleaner we had, because it has the propensity of being a great spray -painting weapon for painting fences, if we had a fences and she could find a bottle exactly the sire of the one that is missing. Like marriage in general, we give a little here, take a little there, and both wind up furious and exhausted, When it was all over, there wasn't much left but a bagful of mouldy, green love letters, 30 years old, She doesn't know it, but I'm going to get up at five on Thursday morning, sneak them out, and bury them among the junk. I simply couldn't stand hearing what a chump 1 was in those days. Fr Hardy says mass Father Hardy came to Huronview to say mass for the Roman Catholic residents on June 1. Saturday morning, the choir held a short practice because it was busy prepar- ing for the Float Entry for the Clinton Parade, All were pleased to hear that the Float won a first prize.

A sense of humour key to meetings, F of A hears BY RHEA HAMILTON For interesting meetings the Huron Federation of Agriculture may have other groups beat out. Members learned Thursday night in Clinton that they already have many of the qualities that make interesting meetings better. Guest speaker Mark Waldren, of the University of Guelph spoke on how to make meetings more effective, informative and interesting. HFA President Merle Gunby and secretary - Treasurer Carol Finch conducted the business and Mr. Waldren later referred back to a lot of what happened to illustrate points �e made, Breaking into groups, members were asked to make lists their key problems in attending and running meetings. The problems later summarized included discouraging irrelevant discussion, getting better attendance out to meetings and getting committments necessary to conduct interesting meetings. Most important, Mr, Waldren pointed out. is to keep a sense of humour. Relax and enjoy the meeting and make the best of it he said. Classified ends. indicated that membership in Huron County is falling. Fieldman Bill Crawford reported to members that in general most of the farmers he talks to are satisfied with OFA but are unaware of their own provincial directors in the area and are unable to express their concerns, Compared to the provincial membership which is down one percent, Huron is down two percent. Norman Alexander reported that there is a wave of concern from a number of Blyth WI The Blyth W.I. met June 7th in the Memorial Hall, The president Mrs. Webster opened the meeting. The roll call was answered by naming something members had learned by doing. Marian Young and Jean Nethery, the Citizenship and World Affairs convenors were in charge of the meet- ing. The 4-H girls and lead- ers attended the meeting and displayed the caps, clutch bags etc. which they had made for the last 4-H project. Mrs. Young showed some interesting slides and a penny sale was held followed by lunch, The next meeting is a Ads pay divid- picnic at the Lions park July Sth at 6:30. farmers about disposal and spreading of animal waste. Mr. Alexander wanted to know if the federation is looking into this matter, The ministry of the enviroment at present keeps check of operations by aerial survcilance but are slow to act on matters, he said, Donkey baseball coming to Londesboro Baseball at the best of time requires some amount of dexterity and speed to get around to the bases, but the Londesboro Lions are going to learn just how difficult baseball can he. They'll be on donkeys. Yes, you read correctly, Next Wednesday night the Lions will be sponsoring one of the most interesting if not the funniest games in the area. Everyone has some idea on just how stubborn donkeys can be and can well imagine the an tics that will be happening. Eleven donkeys are positioned as follows; three for basemen, three for fielders, and one for shortstop. These donkeys remain in position for both teams. Four donkeys are used as base runners for the batters, The pitcher and the catcher are the only players unmounted. Pfayers are not required to stay mounted at all times but they must be on a donkey back to participate in any play. For a unique twist players on the base must be on the donkey and have two of its feet in the base circles which are four feet in diameter. A player may go on foot to recover a thrown or batted ball but must be on his donkey before he can throw. A player often finds after remounting that he is facing the opposite way from where he wants to throw the ball, The game starts 8 p.m. on Wednesday, June 20 at the Londesboro ball park. The two teams will be men from Londesboro and Clinton, How many innings they will complete or what the score will be is anyones guess, but whatever the outcome it sure will be entertaining. Un Monday, June 11th the Blyth Busters . defeated Londesboro in Blyth. Lori Anne Hesselwood hit three home runs and Diane Anderson hit one home run. The final score of the game was Blyth 18, Londesboro 17. Blyth will play in Londesboro on Thursday at 7:00 and then on Monday the 18th they play Summerhill at 8:30 in Londesboro. Only 17 at planning (Continued from Page 1) for a small industrial park zone at the eastern extremety north of county road 25. They suggest that through a minor annexation a larger piece of land would ba available for. development. Harvey Snell questioned the lack of commercial land in the downtown core. "If someone wanted to put up a large grocery store where could they find two acres for that kind of deevlopment.?" asked Mr. Snell. Mr. Dzuz agreed that unless there were buildings available to be torn down there was really no room for such develop- ment in the core arca. But there are areas on the border of the village that would accomodate such development. The number of residential homes in the commercial core area were also discussed. IF a building burns down it is up to council to approve the rebuilding if in a nonconforming arca. Council would like to encourage owners to rebuild residences in residential, as opposed to commercial areas. It was pointed out by council and county planners that if Blyth explands over the proposed 1,500 population the village would have to review the water plant capacity, sewage system, school facilities, and fire trucks capabilities. "All expenses have to be translated into increased tax dollars." said Mr. Dzuz, After a coffee break which enabled many to get individual question answered, Don Noble reminded that the planis not official. and can be changed with time. "This is a continuous system and is the beginning of local planning not the end" summarized Mr. Dzuz, RDOP may research (Continued from Page 1) unearthed, to take action to halt the spread of foreign ownership. John Van Beers recommended that the study should involve the impact of foreign ownership in the county. A motion was passed to ask the RDOP to consider a request to do a study on the effects of foreign ownership on farm land in Huron County. Louise Marriott, from RDOP indicated a request can be made outlining what involvement would be necessary for the study. Mr. Gunby said he was not sure of the implications of being involved with the university but that the federation did need more facts. "The problem is that we just don't have the time to do the investigating ourselves" said a Bluevale farmer, Bev Brown, Have you heard the one about the guy who kept saying to himself that he was in good shape until he took his insurance physical?

Bet- ween these two solos, Sandra McClinchey played "Waltz by Chopin. A number entitled "Tril- liums and Toadstools," com- posed by Eric Street and Dennis Hamm, was played by Eric, and it was easy to identify the sounds that Trilliums and Toadstools would hear.

Mrs. McDougall remained at the piano to accompany Sharon Wittich for another solo based on a Psalm "Like as the Heart Desireth the Waterbrook" by Alliton. Several of Mrs. McDoug- all's pupils of recent years were noticeably missing from this year's concert because these young men and women have moved on to University and other places of residence, but one who returned for the occasion and received hearty applause for his piano rendition of. "Rev- olutionary Etude" (Chopin) was Douglas Thomson of London. With Mrs, Kai at the piano, the United Church Men's Chorus sang the spir- itual "Were'' you There?" and the full choir sang Hayden's "The Creation," followed by Mr. Wittich giving the Benediction, Thanks to the fans in the sanctuary and the delightful variety of musical numbers on the program, a very hot and humid evening came to a close without anyone think- ing about being uncomfort- ably warm.

Rehearsals for "This Foreign Land" began on Monday June 4. Writer Patricia Mahoney has spent the last month conducting research into the experiences of recent im- migrants to southwestern Ontario. On the basis of this research, the actors will improvise situations and develop the scenes that will eventually make up the play. The actors will also be inter- viewing new Canadians in the area in order to gain a greater understanding of the problems that beset new- comers to this land, It will be the job of director James Roy, with the help of the writer and stage manager, to mold a cohesive whole from the material that is forth- coming from the improvisations. Many of the cast are already familiar with the techniques of collective creation, The actors hold credits amongst them for collective works at the The- atre Passe Muraille and Red Light Theatre in Toronto, at Twenty -Fifth Street House Theatre in Saskatoon, and at Theatre Network in Edmonton, The cast of "This Foreign Land" includes Anne Anglin, Richard Bud- zinski, Layne Coleman, Mary Ann Coles, Peter Elliott, Seana McKenna and Sam Malkin, This Foreign Land opens June 29 at the Blyth Memorial Hall, Tickets and information are available by calling 523-9300, ITON ZHOWBAND APPEARING IN THE Seaforth Community Centre SATURDAY, JUNE 23 9to1'a.m. Lunch provided Sponsored by Seatorth !.inns Club Tickets $6.00 each Tickets at Bob and Betty's, Vincent Earns Equipment and from Seaforth Lions or order h} phone.

In a clash with about 15 members of the group, trustees defended hoard procedures used to approve a list of 22 English hooks and told the parents no changes would be made to the list. The board's approval of the list of books was sandwiched between 0 brief presented by the citizen's group expressing its dissatisfaction of the board's handling of the issue and a 15 minute question period •ftr.r thr t,"..rd meeting. The present:, ool of the brief went stiu)Othty but he question period furn'd into an angry Pv.changc hemL.. n parents artu ti u ,.ees. Tiik. brief, presented by I ur. jreidanus. told the -toard the parents were con- cerned with the morals and ethics in the school system. The parents felt little had been, about complaints made to the board and that the new board policy used to approve testbooks shifted responsibility. "We wish to express our complete dissatisfaction over the board's handling of this issue up until now and dernana that the board change its stand and follow the nuidelines as set down in the "Education Act," the group stated it its brief. The parents felt some of the 22 novels approved by the board contained "explicit language." The group requested trustees "read these books before voting here today and to schedule a meeting with a delegation of Concerned Citizens to discuss the differences and come to a mutual understanding in the best interests of our schools". The brief was presented at the outset of the board session and board chairman John Elliott urged any trustees with anything to say to the concerned group say it. Elliott reminded the board that it would be voting on approval of the texts during the meeting and this would be the only opportunity trustees would have to discuss the issue with the parents prior to that vote. Trustees remained silent. No one asked Greidinaus to expand on the views of the concerned parents and no one made any attempt support or oppose the views of the parents. Despite its unified stand in support of its policy after the meeting some trustees were unhappy about the manner in which they were being asked to vote on the textbooks. When it came time to vote on the novels some trustees felt the board had not had enough time to chi ck tut the novels. Seaforth trustre John 1 , micrson told tht hoard he thought approval of the texts was given in August. He said he understood the two month period between the submission of the list of I t. 'cls by teachers and the approval of the board was to allow trustees to look the books over. "Don't we get a chance to look at them?" he asked. Elliott explained that according to the new board policy , approved two months ago, board approval was to he given at the June session. He said teachers had been asked to submit a list of texts to principals along with rationale explaining why the novels were chosen and what educational benefits they had. That list of i cels was taken to a special day long session of the education committee which was open to the public and advertised, At that education committee approved t r‘ els and recommended t' the board that its approval also be given. Wallace said she could support a motion to table the books if trustees would give her a guarantee they would read all the books. LEGION AUXILLIARY PENNY SALE at Legion Hall Thurs. Fri. Sat.
