In any case, Mr. Turkheirn "'stated emphatically that no shuffling of students would take place until after this school year has been completed. New committee to look at school boundaries A new committee to look into the problem of students' dis- tribution within Huron County hasbeen formed as a result of a ratepayers meeting Wednes- day night at the Brucefield school. The committee is com- posed of the school board trust- ees plus Paul Steckle, repre- senting Stanley township, Hank Binnendyk representing Tuck- ersrnith township and Ben Bridges representing the people of Vanastra. Close to 4Q0 ratepayers attended the meet- ing to show their concern over the proposed changing of boundaries, Wilfred Shortreed, chairman of the Boundary Review com- mittee outlined the problem to the ratepayers. Clinton public school has a capacity of 480 students but an enrollment this year of 521 making the use of portable classrooms mandatory. Huron Centennial has a capaci- ty of 510 students and present enrollment is 505. Hensall Public is causing the board concern as its capacity is 210 but its enrollment this year is only 148. Zurich public school enrollment is also down with a • capacity for 180 students and an enrollment of 150. The problem is how to re- distribute the students so all the schools are filled without overcrowding. The proposal of the boimd- aries committee as expressed by Mr, Shortreed is to change the present school boundaries in the southern parts of Tucker- smith and Stanley townships and send some of the students in those areas from Huron Hensall events Pine Triple Dresser, Hutch Mirror, Armoire, 54,60 Cannonball Headboard, bed frame Reg.

The vacancies created at Huron Centennial by this would be filled with students from Vanastra who are pre- sently enrolled at Clinton. However, this proposal was not met very favourably by any of the taxpayers present. Grand Master visits The Past District Deputies of Huron District No, 23 of the IOOF held a dinner meeting at Hensall Lodge Hall on Friday evening. P.D.D.P, Ernie Chipchase presided for the meeting following the dinner. Grand Master M. Hathway of the Sarnia District was guest speakdr, Plan installation Amber Rebekah Lodge met on Wednesday evening with Noble Grand Bertha MacGregor presiding assisted by Vice Grand Dorothy Parker. Arrangements were made for the installation of officers on October 20 when District Deputy Ben Bridges of Vanastra presented a formal brief on behalf of the parents at Vana- stra. In it he claimed the potential growth of Vanastra in the next two to threeyears would be from the 195 students they now have to 345 students. Because of this rapid expan- President Mrs, Mary Fisher of Exeter and her installing staff will be present. An invitation was received from Huronic Lodge, Clinton inviting the members to a "Dessert Euchre" October 27 at 1:30 p.m. The Vice Grand Dorothy Parker reported for the Visiting Committee. Following the meeting a social hour was en- joyed in the lower hall with hostesses Dorothy Parker, Alice Ferg and Bertha MacGregor.

Otherwise, Mr. Bridges claimed, there would have to be reshuffling of boundaries many times to accomodate the increased grow- Sararas.

Mr. Bridges also told the board thepeople of Vanastra do not wish to have children in the same families split up with older ones in one school and younger children in another. The only way this can be avoid- ed is supply Vanastra with its own school as there is no school presently operating in the County which can accomodate all the Vanastra students. Another formal brief was presented to the committee by four concerned ratepayers nom- inated by a previous meeting of approximately 80 parents from Stanley and Tuckersmith, The brief was presented by Paul Steckle and co-signed by Evelyn McKinley, Hank Binnendyk and Jack Bell. In the brief, Mr. Steckle agreed with Mr. Bridges the ideal solution would be to allow Vanastra to have their own school. However, in case this would not be possible for some time, Mr. Steckle offered some further temporary alter- natives. He proposed taking Grades 4 to 8, representing 100 of the older students from Vanastra directly to Hensall on two buses each carrying 50 students and allowing the younger Vanastra sutdents to continue undisturb- ed to Clinton. Additional busing costs from Brucefield to Hensall were suggested to be $2.50 per day per bus, a total of about $1,000. This would mean an increased bus ride of only 10 to 15 minutes over their present bus ride into Clinton, Mr. Steckle argued this would alleviate the shortage of- students in Hensall while dis- rupting the least amount of students. He said a study into the number of students who would be attending Huron Cen- tennial within the present boundaries over the next four years will vary only slightly and this is ideal as the school is presently running within five students off ull capacity. Herb Turkheim, chairman of the school board, said he too felt opening a school at Vanas- tra would be ideal, but express- ed concern that it might not be as easy as it sounds. "When you have empty classrooms in schools within the area, it might be difficult to get the permission of the Minis- try of Education to go along with a school at Vanastra." This was echoed by Mr. Lockerbee of the Ministry of Education's regional office in London. While he was at the meeting in an unofficial capa- city, Mr. Lockerbee explained that due to financial restraints within the province the competi- tion for funds is fierce, "The school age bodies have to be present for us to approve a school." The province would not likely approve a school on the basis of projected enroll- ment. As a result of the discussions, the board trustees requested that three people be nominated from the meeting to work with the hoard on this matter, They will look into the possibility of opening a school in Vanastra, as well as all other possibilities available. Mr. Turkheim said he "sensed" those present were not in favour of changing the school boundaries, and speak- ing as a father he did not blame them. However, he said, a solution to the problem must he found within the financial restrictions placed on the board. With Mr. Steckle, Mr. Bin- nendyk and Mr. Bridges work- ing with the board, Mr. Turk- CIDERFEST The Van Egmond Foundation is holding a 'Ciderfest on the grounds of the historic Van Egmond House, Egmondville, on Sunday, October 17, from 1 to 6.
