part of study
Mavis Dalton, of Seaforth, has spent
twenty days in Tobermory taking part in the
first controlled study in Canada of whether
hyperbaric oxygen is of benefit to people who
have multiple sclerosis.
Almost half of the 120 volunteers have
been treated with either pure oxygen under
pressure (the active treatment group) or the
equivalent of normal air under pressure (the
control group).
Since this is a double blind study, neither
the volunteers nor the researchers know
which people received which treatment until
the code is broken later in the year.

ratify agreement
The teachers and the Perth County Board
of Education made concessions in order to
ratify the 1984-85 collective agreement. The
two sides announced ratification of the
agreement after mediation.
The chairman of the board's negotiating
committee, Barbara Herman of Milverton,
said "very intense," negotiations with the
teachers were held on Sept. 21. A mediator
attended.
Ron Marion of St. Marys, hired as a
negotiator by the teachers, said the day of
negotiations were demanding, but not as
intense for the teachers as for the board
members.
Mr. Marion said the teachers have been
voted 90 per cent in favor of agreement
presented by its negotiating team.
Elementary teachers who are members of
the branch affiliates of the Federation of
Women Teachers' Association of Ontario and
the Ontario Public School Teachers' Federa-
tion first voted in favor of a 1984-85 collective
agreement on June 26. 'The' board turned
down that agreement on"Alig. 21.
The chairman of the board's negotiating
committee said the main stumbling block
over the previous agreement was in the
approach to salaries.
Mrs. Herman said originally the teachers
wanted their salaries determined by a
formula based on the settlements of 60
collective agreements across the province.
She said it could take until Feb. of the
following year before all these agreements
were reached.
"In this particular year we wanted to
determine our own rate," said Mrs. Herman.
She said the trustees wantedto have local
control over salary negotiations and not have
it based on salaries from across the province.
The board approved the total 1984-85
elementary teacher cost of $14 million, an
increase of 7.54 per cent from last year, in a
recorded 8 to 6 vote. There are 371 teachers
affected by the agreement.
In the salary grid there was a 4.25 per cent
increase or $519,543. The amount teachers
receive for their experience, (the increment
cost), increased by $266,127. Together these
two cost increases represent a 6.06 per cent
increase.
Other cost increases which bring the entire
package to a 7.54 per cent are the grid
restoration and a projected cost pt qualifica-
tions improvement.
Mrs. Herman said the grid restoration cost
of $61,985 or 48 per cent, affects 47 teachers
who, because of provincial legislation, could
not have their salary of 35,000 or more
increased last year. In effect, she said this
represents a deferred cost to the board.
Qualifications improvement costs are es-
timated at 5130,000 or one per cent of the
percentage increase. Mrs. Herman said there
was a lot of debate over this issue which
represents the increased cost the board pays
to teachers once they have upgraded their
qualifications.
Mr. Marion said the teachers agreed to
discontinue a special allowance for French
and some special education teachers. This
represents a cost saving of $7,600 to the
board.
The teachers also successfully negotiated
an, extension of the board's subsidized
maternity benefits to 17 weeks. Mr. Marion
said the board pays 80 per cent and the
teachers pay the remaining 20 per cent.
Director of education, Paul Sherratt said
most teachers take more than 17 weeks for
maternity leave.
The average teachers' salary for Perth
elementary teachers is $32,771 compared to
$31,435 last year. The maximum salary, with.
12 years experience and the most qualifica-
tions, is $43,581. The maximum salary after
12 years with less qualifications is $35,913.
Mrs. Herman said the two sides also
agreed to the establishment of a committee
that will study the uneven distribution of
open time for the elementary teachers. She
said this is the time where the classroom
teacher's time is open because the music or
French teacher is in the classroom.
The trustees voting in favor of the
agreement were board chairman Howard
Shantz, Paul Parlee of Stratford, Twyla Reed
of Ellice Township, Rod Bell of Shakespeare,
Ron Richards of Stratford, Dave Crowley of
Gadshill, Mrs, Herman and Barbara Osborne
of St. Marys.
Voting against were David Hammond of
RR 7, St. Marys, Bert Johnson of Listowel,
Dereck Ward of Wallace Township, Earl
.Oppenhauser of Logan Township, Ted
Loughrey of Mitchell and Peter Black of
Blanshard Township.
Trustees Gerald Foster of Elma Township
and Canon Michael Griffin of Stratford could
pot vote on the agreement because they have
immediate family members who are Perth
elementary teachers.
