The average salary for category A4 \the top cate- gory) increase S from 526,051 to 528,867. The contract is effective Sept. 1. Trustee Ted Loughrey of Mitchell, chairman of the negotiating committee said the board and members of the branch affiliates. Ontario • Public School Men Teacher's Federation, and the Feder- ated Women Teacher's Asso:. elation of Ontario "amic- ably" reached an agreement. "It is a settlement with few major changes," said Mr. Loughrey. Chief negotiator for the teachers, Dale Bast of Strat- ford said there was some hold -back by the teachers to enable an agreement for this year. He said there is a growing disparity of salaries between the Perth secondary and elementary and separate school teachers. "Our major goal was to attempt to close the gap." said Mr.. Bast. He said the majority of the teachers felt the closing of the gap is satisfactory for this year, because of the economic climate. Class sizes were reduced for the primary. grades from 28 students to 27.5 and the president of the Perth OPSMTF . Robert Davidson said it is a small effort in.the right direction. He also said in the next contract year, teachers will be seeking a dental plan. • The totalcost agreement, including salaries and bene- fits, will cost the board 512,059,682, up from 510,999,792, the cost of the current agreement. Mr. Loughrey said it is a "very good contract", and it "will appear to be following in line with the government austerity program". He was referring to the federal gov- ernment's recent budget ask- ing for six per_ cent salary increase Tit/tits. Elementary school princi- pals* class A (a school with 300plus students) will, effec- thie: Sept. 1, be earning a a , niinimum 544,100 to a maxi- , mum of 546,100 and in class 13 (under 300 students) a mini- mum of 541,975 to a maxi- mum of $44,050.

Dave Maloney of the New York Rangers was one of those polled and here's what he said about his dad, Steve: "My dad, Steve, is a construction worleer, a big old Irishman from Kitchener; Canada. He -worked awfully hard to raise seven kids • — I was first-born, so I might have been a little special to him. He's as proud of me as he is of his six other sons and•daughters. It 's a typical Irish father -son relationship, not overly affectionate. but you know the bond is there. The biggest thing I learned from him is that no matter what I was doing. I had to see it through to the end. There were plenty of times. I would rather have been off skiing or something, but he expected me to respond with my part by being there, spce he would always be there to drive me to practice at 5:30' a.m. My son. David Clifford, was just born a week ago and that's his first grandehild. A lot of people say they want to give their kids everything they didn't have — but I can't think of anything 1 didn't have.•• That got Steve thinking. and for Expos--"" itor readers he wrote a little about what he remembers about his dad. the late Wilfred ad Maloney, longtime Dublin correspondent: "My father Wilfred L. Maloney was not schooled for many years as his dad died in his 40's and he had to stay home to help his mother farm. I too do not have a great deal of formal education. When my mother Elizabeth Murray died in 1950. it was one of the very few times I ever saw dad shed any tears. His statement at the funeral was that he felt badly that he wasn't ever able to provide the material things that my mother desired. He never complained about the future problems of raising ,six children without a wife and mother. 1 was the oldest of our family and at age 17 years felt that mother had lived to a good old age of 43 years. In 1961 my brother Joseph died following surgery and my father said nothing is bad that could 'be worse. as he may have been crippled from an accident, or had his mind affected by drugs. My father's life was much more difficult than mine. Our Complete family was with him when he passed away peacefully following cancer. Among my values I feel that his best way of educating his family was to show us how to work with our hands and our heads at the same time." Scherbarth reunion held Bmclhog@fi Correspondent MRS.
