Belgrave Tykes win, lose Belgrave Tykes travelled to Bay­ field this past weekend for the Tyke's year-end Hockey Tourna­ ment. The first game played was against Hensall. who they defeated 4-2. Hensall opened the scoring in the first period, but Belgrave came on strong in the second scoring four goals and holding Hensall back to theii one point. Justin Campbell scored the first two goals, assisted in the second one by Scott Folkard. The third goal was scored by Craig Marks while Justin Campbell came back with two minutes left to get his third goal of the game. Hensall managed to sneak another past the Belgrave goalie in the third period, but couldn’t bring the score any closer. However, in the second game. Belgrave saw some different ac­ tion. being trounced by Blyth 8-3. Blyth got the first goal of the game, but Justin Campbell came back to tie it up with only two seconds remaining. In the second period Blvth widened ’he margin, scoring three goals before Justin Campbell man­ aged to get one into their ret. Blyth quickly came back with two more goals to end the second period. Belgrave opened the scoring in the third period with a goal b\ Craig Marks, but Blyth kept on the heat, scoring two more goals before the game was oser. ment and school space over the last three years and during the last few months the topic has been under a great deal of scrutiny by the Management Committee with the direct involvement of a majority of trustees. The school space problem has been addressed and studied by an outside consulting firm, and inter­ nally and in the summer of last year alternate solutions were presented to the community, through school newsletters and the media. Invita­ tions were offered for feedback and comments from parents and the community, but this has to date been nominal. The board does, however, anticipate controversy, when policy details are defined. The problems facing the board begin with the cost increases for providing extra space in some schools unless enrolment can be reduced through relocation. For example, costs to provide space at Huron Centennial Public School and Hullett Central Public School could generate large local tax increases. Changes in the provincial trans­ portation grants structure to create a more cost-efficient system, sug­ gest that immediate changes may be made in some of the bus routes. The board is over-ceiling (using 100 per cent local tax dollars) for busing costs, which is close to $200,000 per year. In the absence of immediate bus route consolida­ tion taxpayers could be faced with potential dramatic increases in the 1992 tax bill. It is not logical, the committee believes, to transport children past the front door of schools that are not above capacity to schools that arc full. It is also not logical to maintain bus routes for vehicles which arc only partially full. The committee has devised a five-stage progressive sequence of interventions for the board to consider. These are: revised defini­ tions of school capacity, revised definitions of space available, re­ vised bus routes, return of out-of­ area students (if immediate costs savings result) and revised boun­ daries to reduce over-crowding. A three-year implementation has been proposed. One school in the area will be affected by the action. One bus, collecting Hullett township pupils from Highway 8 east of Clinton and Vanastra, will be terminated as it passes by Clinton Public School. This action leads to an immediate annual post saving of $5,000 in bus costs ar.d a potential staff reduction at Hullett Central Public School of up to one teacher ($50,000) by the 1992-93 school year. The cost of one portable classroom at $35,000 may be eliminated. Minor boun­ dary changes will be required in the Hullett Central catchment area east of Clinton by 1992 with additional boundary changes being considered by 1993 or sooner if possible. Other schools in the report are Huron Centennial, Victoria, and Robertson Memorial Public Schools. In addition the management committee proposes that all area schools except Brussels, Clinton, Grey, Robertson, Stephen, Us- borne and Vanastra will be closed to out-of-area pupil transfer re­ quests. Should this recommendation for policy change be accepted by the trustees the management commit­ tee estimates a total local tax saving in excess of $1,000,000.
