Recognizing the fact that there was no choice on the salary settlement, the president of the Huron Federated Women Teachers' Association of Ontario (FW°I'AO) Dixie -Lee. Arbuckle said, "we appreciate the factthat we had the opportunity to talk to the board." Both sides met several times and superintendent of personnel Peter Gryseels praised the teachers for taking "a very realistic approach" to the bargaining process. He noted they realized the dollars were fixed and they didn't request increased benefits. The new salary grid, effective Sept. 1, ranges from $16,230 per year to $42,050. The previous year's salary grid ranged from $15,460 to $40,050. The average elementary school teacher's salary is $36,419 with the average principal's salary at $44,819.

Bay City officials will be treated to civic reception The town . of Goderich will entertain six to eight Bay City civic and legion dignitaries at a reception during the Canada Week celebrations. Council passed a motion by a 5-4 margin, with Mayor, Eileen Palmer casting the deciding vote, that calls for the town to host a dinner for members of Goderich town council, Bay City council and legion, Goderich Legion executive members as well as members of the local tourist conainittee. The town will pay for the meal of six or eight Bay City dignitaries while all others will be asked to pay for their meal. The town will also provide a free bar at the reception. Originally council was only going to pay for a few of Group' s growth continues the visiting civic dignitaries, but at the insistence of councillor John Doherty, agreed to host legion executive members as well. Doherty said that Post 18 executive members hosted Goderich officials in Bay City and a reciprocal gesture would "maintain harmony". "The Goderich mayor is paid for and a few Bay City dignitaries," he said. "We should include the com- mander and past com- mander of Post 18 and some executive members because they have kept things going over the years. To overlook them could distolve the friendship that has been built up over the years." While he conceded the town should entertain some Bay city dignitaries to a meal, councillor Jim Seeds said thetown should have a cash bar at the reception. He suggested the town spent at least $700 for drinks at last year's reception, a figure which Administrator Larry McCabe was closer to $300. "Buy some of them a meal, have a cash bar and save half the money," Searls said. The motion to pay for the meal expenses of Bay City civic and legion dignitaries and to provide a free bar for all in attendance at the reception was supported by Harry Worsell, Ed Giesbrecht, John Doherty, Glen Carey and Palmer. Don Wheeler, Searls; Bill Clifford and Jim Britnell voted against the motion.
