nounced a long term program in
the Legislature with this objec-
tive but said no major parts of
the program would be imple-
mented this year.
The program will provide for
the eventual integration of On-

the universities, The first
phase of the program would re-
quire that all prospective ele-
mentary school teachers be
qualified for university admis-
sion and that they take a two
year course in colleges affiliat-
ed with the universities. The
second phase would extend the
period of university training to
three years and the third phase
to four years. The new plan
will not affect those now teach-

The Ontario Liquor Control
Board announced it will intensi-
fy its testing of all beer and ale
brands sold in the province. The
move came within hours of the
announcement that Dow Brew-
eries Ltd, had closed its Que-
bec City plant after two of its
brands were suspected of con-
tributing to a number of heart
case deaths,
The L.C.B.O. normally tests
each of about 1,000 brands of
alcoholic beverages sold in the
province on a rotation basis.
Grade 13 has been undergo-
ing some serious examination
since 1964 with a view to mak-
ing a number of major changes.
The basic complaints are(a)
that the student is required to
study too many subjects, (b)
that the content of each of the
subjects he does study is so
heavily charged with :actual
material upon which he will be
examined that his approach to
the subject is narrow rather than
wide ranging and philosophic,
and (c) that everything depends
upon success at the examina-
tions he will face in June.
In addition many difficul-
ties are created for the teacher
by the existence of grade 13 in
its present form.
The original study commit-
tee on grade 13 recommended
the establishment of an extend-
ed system of post-secondary
education. The Colleges of
Applied Arts and Technology
are intended to serve this pur-
pose. As well the committee
recommended, with respect to
the number of grades that On-
tario change to a 12 grade
structure. It was against this
background that the ministerof
education made an announce-
ment outlining the Grade 13 ex-
amination procedure for the
immediate future.
In 1906 Grade 13 Departmen-
tal examinations have been
prepared as in the past. The
examination will be writtenbe-
tween June 6 and 24 according
to a published schedule and will
be marked centrally by appoint-
ed examiners from the second-
ary' schools, private schools and
universities. The final mark
will consist of 3556 teacher's
mark and 650/0 examination
mark.
In 1967 Grade 13 students
will write tests prepared by the
newly formed service for ad-
mission to college and univer-
sity, These tests will include
an aptitude test and achieve-
ment tests. In order to make a
smooth transition the depart-
ment will continue to have
Grade 13 examinations, The
teacher's mark will remain at
35%,
In 1968 no Grade 13 exam-
inations will be set. University
applicants will again write the
aptitude and achievement tests
prepared by the Service for Ad-
mission to College and Univer-
sity.
