Smith. the president of Boilersmith in Seaforth, called into question some of the numbers on which hoard direction seems based. FIGURES DIFFER He wondered. for instance. why the hoard is using a square -footage of about 62.000 feet at the local high school as a basis for calculating a current 66 per cent capacity. Smith said that square footage- includes the basement. which is non- functional. • Shirley Brugger confirmed this. She said the basement of the school floods regularly and the SDHS hand lost about S1.000 in equipment stored there recently because of it. If you subtract the basement, Smith said. he comes up with a square footage of roughly 48,000 square feet for the school. which would work out to a capacity of closer to 88 per cent. He also said it appears the capacity of the local high school appears to have been downsized from 560 to 505 recently. but even if the latter figure is accepted he said it is "ludicrous" because the school could not accommodate that many students. He urged everybody to pressure the boarld to make- sure akesure the figures it - is working with add up.

In the same 'vein. Smith said the accounting done by the Avon -Maitland hoard and province in regards to educational grants and transfers don't appear to be on the same wave length. and this should he clarified. The group's handout at last week's meeting further noted: "The hoard is still trying to figure" out how much money it will get for 1998- 99. MPP Helen Johns claims that there is 53 - million more than anticipated. and that no schools need be closed." NOT AS GOOD Local kids would get less than they arc accustomed to if forced to go to Clinton high school. Burgess claimed. He recently retired as a teacher at SDHS. He said the co-op program in Seaforth is a good example of this.

Jane Powell, a student at Seaforth high, said students are not short-changed here. if anything, just the opposite because "everyone knows your name." She feels trustees are overlooking the school's good "reputation" in their decision making. All speakers stressed how close the vote to close Seaforth's school. should it come, could be. They urged supporters of the local school to pressure the decision makers, including arca trustee and Avon - Maitland chair Ahhy Armstrong. She was not there last Thursday night but called to say she could not attend. Agar said given the short notice of the meeting it was understandable. Armstrong was in favour of the withdrawn motion to close Seaforth's high school and establish the Bacteria is not a risk to health CONTINUED from Page 1 two. Hc said that Gleason has a right to launch a lawsuit as part of living in a free country. but he said $1 billion dollars is an amount most people can not even comprehend. "SOLVE started out looking for high bacteria counts and didn't sec them," he said. "in fact, the numbers were rather low most of the time." As for the resistant bacteria. VanderBurgt said it is not a health risk in itself. but is a concern because it is an indicator of the levels of antibiotic resistance in bacteria in general. • Ex -files Revealed Dolly McQuaid: owns a this museum should read owns a museum, page 2 I.
