Board chairman Donald
Crowley of RR2 Gadshill said
of the wholesale moving of
principals and teachers, "It's
a strengthening move for the
system."
Superintendent Joseph
Mills explained: "It is the
first time it has been done in

vacancies, to strengthen the
system and to make the best
use of personnel."
Mr. Mills said all the
principals and teachers to be

transferred are: Gary Bir-
mingham to Our Lady of
Mount Carmel, RR3 Dash-

Three Huron students
will conduct survey
An approved federal
government grant for $8,274
will enable three Huron
County students to be em-
ployed this summer to con-
duct a survey in the• northern
part of the county in the hopes
of starting a county day
centre for thehomebound in
the Wingham area this fall.
Ann St. Jean, co-ordinator
of ` the Huron County day
centre for the hornebound
located in C.linton at
Huronview and sponsor for
the grant, says the idea of a
Centre for the homebound has
"taken off like wildfire" since
the one in the Clinton area
opened last October after
being established by the
Huron Outreach Committee.
The centre provides activities
and asocial outlet for those in
the county who, because of
age and or disability, would
• not otherwise be able to take
advantage of such outings.
Mtg.' St. Jean emphasizes
that all age groups, from 20 to
90 years, are catered to.
Volunteer drivers pick up the
homebound people and
transport them to the centre.
More such drivers are
needed.
The Clinton area centre can
only handle about 15
homebound persons a day.
Because of time and
distances, it is difficult to
serve all the homebound in
the county through this one
centre. Mrs. St. Jean would
like to see the centre at
Huronview, as the core centre
with satellite centres located
around the county, the first
such satellite centre perhaps
being located in the Wingham
area.
The three students hired to
conduct the surt>Vy and lay
the footwork for such satellite
centres, will work from May
to September. They will
receive an initial training
period in Clinton. They will
then visit doctors, ministers,
recreation centres and
anyone who knows of
homebound people. After
this, they will visit and in-
terview these homebound
