This is always a rip-roaring fun
night and for •a good cause as you
well know. Friday and Saturday,
June 23 and 24, Goderich Little
Theatre presents ' the last
production of the 1971-72
season.
Leave them laughing—this is'
always a good way to finish one,
"Here We.Come Gathering,:" a
farce presented by the Kitchener=
Waterloo Little Theatre, will
really 'round it out.
For a nice change , of pace
G.L.T. decided to invite this fine
group with their terrific play in'
which a strange assortment ' of
characters occupy a vacant
house—and you've always -
wondered what goes on after that.
Well; you're going 'to find out and
you'll come away from the play
with enough giggles to last you for
weeks.
• Life is so doggoneti irritating,
-aggravati-ng,-a:nd----corrrplrcated,.
that any giggle you can carry
home for a re -run; later is always
worthwhile. .
Last weekend, seeing the fields
of blackened corn and other
crops,'dort of made you wonder
what it is all abou,
I have. told the southerners
(every- chance I , get) about a
picture'I took of a snowfall on the

I had to produce the photo to prove
,it --but a June the tenth freezer-up

I know we all • send
condolences—even to Bill and
other gardeners who are. weeping
over_,their tomatoes and potatoes
and other precious little garden
things.
We will all be. weeping, later in

So there you are. Mary Lynne,
with her quick smile and happy
disposition hopes you will come

fine group.
O•oops—I missed another June
'24 event Thi's one is the
.Strawberry Festival sponsored
by the U.C.W. of Benmiller and
held at their church from 5:30
p.m. to,,,7 p.m., .
John and Shirley Hazlett are

your dessert after you partake of
the interesting Smorgasbord
which the ladies have planned for
you. i was anxious to know if that
killer frost had ruined the
berries, but everything seems to
be fine -so out you go for a great
supper.

A new move seems to be afoot
within the educational system of
Huron County toward a closer -
.working relationship between th
teacher's and principals of the
yarious schools and ,the' Board
itself.
Considerable progress in this
direction was indicated recently
with the appointment of a special
comrnittee consisting of school
staff and board representatives to
resolve certain problems, or at
least make recommendations
toward the best solution.
A committee consisting of Don
•Kenwell; Huron Board of.
' ' Education Superintendent of
P ar Ewi ns Operations, • Secondary school
.principals JQe Wooden of Exeter,
' Gord Phillips of Wingham and Bob
wh eelsma n • Homuth of Clinton and elementary
school principals John Kane of
Goderich, Don O'Brien of Zurich
and Bill Black of Colborne
Central will consider the problem
of "Redundancy vs transfer" and
make recommendations to the
board.
'At a recent . meeting of the
Secondary School principals.,Q4he
whole question of redundant
teaching positions caused by
declining enrolments and° or
decline in student demand for
particular subjects as a result of
the Credit System. The situation
was apparently broughtinto focus •
by a discussion of an article in the
June issue of 'Ontario
„Education" published by the
Ontario Public School Trustees
Association. The appointment of
the committee was an outcome of
these discussions.
' `•As a result of the
discussion," Director- of
Education D. John Cochrane said

was the wheelsman on watch June

The Minister has now announced
an expansion of that program .to

The program has a primary
aim of ensuring '.the _ maximum
utilization of Ontario's share of
the industrial milk market. To
achieve this, loans will be made
available from the local branches
of chartered baulks to industrial
milk producers wishing to
purchase Market Sharing Quota.
Recognizing that in 'souse cases

grogram has been enlarged 'to

can be presented to the Board for

Another interesting move
tov�ardthis method of form•ulating-
board policy was announced in the
same monthly.memo. "During the
past.. academie year, the Board
had a' very a -chive ad hoc
committee composed of teachers, Administration Liaison
trustees and adinintstratton'
charged with the planning of a
series of afternoon presentations
to the Board on a number of facets
'of education in Huron County,'°
Mr Cochrane notes.
As a result of a subcommittee
presentation on communication
an administrative council was
formed. The chief role, of this
council was two -fold, to act as a
liaison link between the teacher in
the classroom and the board
administration and to act as an
expediter'of information.
In retrospect it was felt the two
committees had overlappino.

Officials at the Canada
Manpower offices in Goderich say
that the possibility, for
employment` of students this
summer is good although hardly
bright. ,
A spokesman for the office said
on Tuesday that 40 or. more'
University Students from the town
had registered and were "very
fortunate" ih being placed with
*various large companies and -
employers in the area. He cited
The Dominion Road Machinery
Company, Sifto Salt and . the
GodericliPsychiatric Hospital as
having been ^"very fair" in
offering employment -10 --#h
°students. ..
'Apparently the few that are still
not employed for the summed
months are mostly girls since
there seems to be, more •
employment opportunities for the
males. ••
The story for -lrigh • sc loot
students seeking jobs,apparently
is not too good however. Most of '
the ce , the,
manpowerprospeofficets are said, sincepoormost
of the jobs in -this area are short
term, Canadian Canners at
Exeter is expected to take up most
• of the slack later in the year but 'it
was pointed out that it is 'still -toe
early for that company to be
hiring to any extent. Over the
summer- the employment agency
usually manages to get most of
those registered some
employment however.
This year there is little in the
area of, special employment
programs for -Goderich as well
andthis does not help the situation
any. The Militia Program, 'which
often helps provide jobs, is not
active 'locally "'since the closest
Militia branches are located at
Loridon,and Stratford. Last year .
there was a' civilian, program for
students at the Canadian Forces
Base Petawawa but ne word has
been receiVed to date regarding:
possible continuance,. of this
program in 1972.
• in the Director's memo there
was one item oi~ additional
interest regarding the transfer of
school administrators
(principals).
"Many questiohs,mostly by
persons not directly . affected,
have been asked regarding
criteria used in determining
candidates eligible for transfer,"
Mr. Cochrane said. ."The
fallowing is taken . from the
preamble .to the report to the
Board on this particular topic."
The :primary objective in the
appointment or transfer of a
school administrator in the
system should be the
improvement of -the educational
climate in the schools, the report
said. Such factors as staff
leadership in the development of
methods and curriculum,
organization, administration and
public relations should all be
important considerations.
staff
A second objective. Mr.
Cochrane explained, of the
,system should be the utilization in
a number of schools, of the
breadth of experience and
expertise of capable principals
and vice principal: a
A third objective, he added,
should be the professional growth
- of the principal or vice principal •
as a school administrator. To this •
end -principals and vice principals
who have displayed high qualities •
• of leadership and potential should,
be advanced to positions of
greater , responsibility. On the
other hand, principals who are not
reaching their potential, or who
are not displaying evidence of
becoming educational leaders in
the community, should be given an
opportunity to do so in another
school situation before any, more
drastic measures are
contemplated.
