Orono eek 4m VOLUME 37, NUMBER :3' Delegation meets with Orono Trustees A delegation of Messrs. Don Tennant, Percy Lunn and Floyd Nicholson.meet with the Orono Police Trustees on Wednesday of last week when the subject centred around the fact that the Police Trustees had awarded the contract to collect garbage in Orono to Hale's Disposal. Garbage in Orono had been picked-up by Mr. Tennant for a number of years but the arrangement was discontinued when the Police Trustees awarded a contract for the work to Hales. Mr. Tennant questioned the Trustees on the fact that the Trustees had awarded the contract without calling tend- ers and was closing the village ""mp without giving three to weeks notice. Mr. Simp- son, chairman of the Board stated that the Trustees had tendered the work a couple of years ago, to which Mr. Tennant stated that the price now being charged by Hale's was higher than put in the tender. It was also pointed out that residents of the village now had free use of the Hale's Disposai area and it was only a matter that the residents had to travel a little further. Hale's dump is open to the public every afternoon of the week along with Saturday mornings. Mr. Simpson stated that the Trustees through Mr. Partner had asked Mr. Tennant to sign a contract with the Trustees on five different occasions and had also sent Mr. Tennant a registered letter asking that the agreement be signea. Mr. Simpson said the Trustees had not obtained a replyfrom Mr. Tennant on any of the requests and asked 'why not.' Mr. Tennant stated that the Police Trustees were paying Hale more than they were paying him. To this the Trustees stated that the over all cost to the village had not increased due to the change in policy.

The project also includes some roll curb work on the south-east side of Milison Hill Drive. Bennett Paving of Oshawa is to do the work with the cost of the work on the Park Hill to amount to $3,475.00. The roll curb on the Millson Hill Drive is to cost $2.50 a foot. R. Forrester stated that Bennett's had said they would do the work this year but would not give any definite time as they have a heavy schedule of work to complete.

The Orono Public School, as did all other schools in the province opened us Ooors to students of the area to commence another yeaj- of instructions and education. For the majority of students it was a great day - to be back and to again meet witb their friends and fellow students. In speaking with Mr. D. Mol.at, the day before open- ing, he said already they had had thirty -three new students register. mainly from the ()rono Estates sub-division. lie said it was quite likely that not all had registered prior to school opneng and that he expected some additional 40 to 45 students this year. This increase, he said, would mean a new classroom and an extra teacher but that neither were available at this time. It was pointed out that he would have to wait until Tuesday before any concrete decision was made concerning the extra classroom or the extra teach- Ile said some present par- ents had expressed concern ov er the fal that their ihidren may have to make use of the portables but he said nothing could be done about this. He felt that the new students would integrate into the school without any prob- lem. The school already bas two portables and the addition of one more would bring the total to three portables. Mr. Gordon Thompson of Peterborough joins the staff this year and will teach grade seven and the school band. Mr. Grant Yeo, formerly of Orono, also joins the staff and will act as the principal's elief Mr. Al. Caldwell and Miss Grace Moore have left the Orono staff. Y--illage garbage pickup Thursday
