Retiringteachers honored
The Huron Association of
Federation of Women
Teachers of Ontario honored
three retiring teachers: Mrs.
Eluned McNair of Grey
Central School; Mrs.
Margaret Tyreman, Brussels
and Mrs. Amy McCrostie,
Colborne Central at their
annual meeting May 3.
Business was conducted by
the president, Mrs. Mary
Huother, Brussels, who in-
troduced head table guests
including:,. D.J. Cgtchrane,
Director of Education for
Huron County; Mrs. Marian
Zinn, Vice-chairman of
Huron County Board of
Education; Mrs. Lillian
Thompson, Wiarton, Director
of Region 1, F.W.T.A.O. Mrs.
Jeanne Frolick, Provincial
President of F.W.T.A.O., and
Dr. Florence Henderson,
Executive Secretary of
F.W.T.A.O.
The highlight of the
meeting was a discussion on
the pros and cons of
Amalgamation of the
provincial men's and
women's teacher association,
which will be voted on in
June.
Mrs. Frolick in speaking
against Amalgamation
stressed the value of
cooperation between rather
than amalgamation of O.P.S.
and F.W.T.A.O.
Doug Pearson, an O.P.S.
panel member, felt
amalgamation would end
duplication of services and
offices at all levels of
Federation. He felt an
amalgamated group could
"speak with one voice to the
people, to the boards and to
the governtient."
Dr. Florence Henderson
firmly stated that,"for the
time being F.W.T.AO. should
remain the, autonomous
organization which it has
been since 1918." She stressed
the value of F.W.T.A.O. to
women, as a professional
organization which will
"allow you to become highly
competent as possible in
pursuing your role as an
educator.' She pointed_ out te
vast differences in the career
patterns of men and women
and advised that "when our
career patterns become more
alike, then there may be a
time for amalgamation."
She urged that F.W.T.A.O.
members not give up "the one
organization which allows
you entry, allows you to stay
and develop as a teacher."
F.W.T.A.O. as a protective
organization is needed to
"support women in pursuit of
a cared in cooperation with
other affiliates of O.T.F."
John Mann as a, proponent
of amalgamation proposed
that inequalities felt by
F.W.T.A.O. members were
"due to forces outside the
profession." He questioned,
"if the public sees us divided
inside; the profession, will this
attitude change?" Other
panel members replying
were Rick Whiteley and Dave
Medd from O.P.S. and Carol
Simons for F.W.T.A.O.
