Ask Boards to De
Size of Clinton Addition
Secondaryschool boards
Huron County associated w
the Central Huron Second
School at Clinton, will be can
upon by the Clinton board
express their respective op
ions as to the size of the p
pose& addition to the Clint
school.
The Advisory Vocatio
Committee to the Clinton bo
early last month voted "by
slim majority" calling for
addition to accommodate 3
pupils, rather than a larger
dition to accommodate 5
pupils. However, the Clint
board took no action, as it
that it must study all the p
and cons. of the matter.
Meeting Wednesday nig
the 14 -member school boa
learned from its business a
ministrator, L. R. Maloney, th
the cost of construction of
proposed addition would
charged back to the four scho
boards on a cost per pupil b
is. Mr. Maloney's informati
was obtained from the Scho
Act. However, verification w
be obtained from- the Ontar
Department ' of Education b
fore any business is commen
ed.
The school, which opened i
doors September last to voc
tional students from Seafort
Exeter, Goderich and Clinto
accommodates 1250 .student
Overcrowding in the vocation
section existed from dpenin
day. This'necessitated revision
in • the agreement among th
four boards, whereby' the Grad
IX students would remain i
the sending schools for the next
three years. At the end of tha
time the situation will be r
viewed.
If the Grade IX students
turn to Clinton at the end o
the contract time, the projecte
enrolment in 1968 is 1790;° i
they continue to stay in the
home schools, the projecte
figure is 1506.
Said George Falconer, Bruce
field, Tuckersmith Township re
presentative: "The other thre
boards should agree on what w
do, otherwise they won't bac
us up."
Board chairman John Lavis
Clinton,' added that the Clinto
board has been trying to co
operate with the other board
in what he called a "joint ef
fort", and he also favore
"shelving the idea, until we ge
the feeling( of the other boards.'
Ray Madill, Blyth, asked 1
there were any second
schools in the province operat
ing on the shift system. Prin
cipal John Cochrane replie
that there was one inHamii
ton. "In my opinion," said Mr
Cochrane, "it is impractical, bu
not improbable." If this system
was put into effect, the firs
classes in the morning would
necessitate too early a start for
the pupil before he left home;
and for the later shift, it would
mean a very late evening.
Mr. Maloney quoted Dr. S. -D.
Rendall, Superintendent of Sec-
ondary Education in Ontario, as
stating that the Department
would not approve another ad-
dition, once the proposed addi-
tion is built.
Norman Counter, Clinton, one
of Huron County's two repres-
entatives on the board, and who
is also a A.V.C. member, ques-
tioned what the future grants
would he, if the board did not
build a large enough accommo-
dation this time. He felt that
- it would 'be more economical to
build the larger addition.
Walter Newcombe, Clinton,
also a member of the A.V.C.,
>:emarked that the trend of the
student seems to• be for voca-
tional training, and that the
Clinton school, according to its
Commercial director, • W. G.
MacArthur, offers a "much bet-
ter commercial course" than
the other schools. He felt that
if- the Grade IX pupils do not
return to the Clinton school at
the end of the three-year con-
tract time, that they will be
deprived of all the school has
to offer. He predicted over-
crowding in three or four years'
time if the board does not "go
for" the larger addition. The
money angle was the reason
he felt that the AVC favored
the smaller addition.'
Robert .Elliott, G o d e r i c h
Township representative, in 'ex-
pressing his opinion, said that
if the Grade IX pupils do not.
return to Clinton,- that there
-could' be some empty rooms in
the school if the board build
the larger addition. Ray Madill,
Blyth, wondered if the trend
would revert to academic train-
ing; "perhaps jobs will run out,
it is the old story of supply
and demand,""he said.

ael Borov (Latin), Mrs. Beryl
Harper (Physical Education),
and Dieter Dahlke (Commer-
cial). The board signed con-
tracts" with Gordon A. M. Smith,
Mitchell, age 30, to teach Eng-
lish and Guidance, at a salary
of $5,900; Mrs. Aileen M. Bur-
gin, RR 7, Alvinston, age 23, to
teach Home Economics, at a
salary of $5,900, and William
Gerald Leeson, Arnprior, to
teach machine shop practise, at
a salary of $6,500.
Members of the board felt
that the problem of students
who are smoking, loitering on
town streets, and on private
property during the noon hour,
was a matter for the town po-
lice - to cope with. Principal
Cochrane reported that he has
received verbal complaints from
citizens and the Chief of Po-
lice regarding over some 50 stu-
dents loitering on private pro-
perty. He said that the school
authorities have tried to dis-
courage it, but that once the
students were off school pro-
perty he has no authority.
A report received from Dr.
Rendall, as the result of W. D.
Scott's inspection (inspector of
secondary schools for the area),
commended the board on the
way in which the school, in one
year, expanded from 632 pupils
taking -;the general course, to
1252 pupils taking the full vo-
cational program, as well as
the general program, plus the
special commercial courses. "It
has been a tremendous upheav-
al, the success of which is due
to many people, but the major
credit must go to the board,
the A.V.C., and the principal.
The new addition and the many.
new courses have been made
available to the pupils of Clin-
ton, Goderich, Seaforth and
South Huron, ,by the hard work.
and- excellent co-operation of
many people. The way in which
these courses were filled to ov-
erflowing by the pupils is ample
proof that vocational- education
was badly needed in these'
areas. Unfortunately, the school
is overcrowded, so that the four
co-operating schools have agreed
to retain their Grade IX pupils
who are in the diploma courses.
Revisions were made in, the
agreement to - permit this
change, which is subject to re-
view. Each board's guarantee
was cut to 15 per cent of its
normal enrolment to compen-
sate for the new situation. The
Clinton Board ,has agreed to
"initiate preliminary investiga-
tions concerning a further addi-
tion" because all estimates of
enrolment point to a rapid and
continuing increase in enrol-
ment in the vocational courses."
, The report suggests that the
gymnasium equipment needs to
be added , to greatly to serve
three gymns; that the Inspector
of Agriculture recommends that
agriculture be extended into
grades 11 and 12 over the next
two years (this was voted
against for this year' by the
board following thisreport, as
only six students were interest-
ed); that the Inspector English -
would prefer to see fewer teach-
ers involved in that • subject,
that is, more full-time English
teachers and fewer having. Eng-
lish •as a second subject. The
Inspector- Shops reported that
.the new shops have very fine
equipment, and that the grant
allowances did not have to be
exceeded to get it.
Mr. Scott pointed out in the
report that there ,is a tremen-
dous job ahead for -the .princi-'
pal and the department heads

ers (36), and so many with Iim='
