Teach- ers and inspectors from the schools of Oshawa and the sur- rounding district will take part in lectures and group discus- sions. The leader of this year's work- shop will be Dr. Russell G. Stauffer, director of the reading study centre, University of Dela- ware. The general theme of the workshop will be, "The Dynam- ies of the Reading-Thinking Pro- cess in the Junior Grades". Al- though it will have particular emphasis for teachers of Grades 4, 5, and 6, teachers of other grades will find much that will be of assistance in the teaching of reading to their classes as well. Dr. Stauffer, who is an eminent authority on the teach- ing of reading is the general editor of a series of readers used widely in many school sys- tems, the editor of a periodical, "The Reading Teacher', and has addressed the Ontario Edu-| cational Association at its an- nual Spring Convention in To- ronto.

RC Board To Reopen Bilingual School Study Once more was the question of a bilingual school brought to the attention of the Oshawa Separate School Board. Rev. Norbert J. Gignac, pas- tor of the parish of St. Mary of the People, presented the board with a brief Tuesday asking the board to reconsider this "thorny problem". P, F. Pocock, archbishop of Toronto, has di- rected me, as pastor of the French speaking people of Osh- awa, to convey to you the mes- "Most Rev. If Father Gignac had hoped for immediate action on his lat- est brief, it was clear the board' is not prepared to dive into this head-over-heels. "We have spent hours and hours on this problem," said Chairman Michael Rudka, "'it was tumed down, rescinded and turned down again. We have to go by our bylaws.

Archbishop Pocock had au- thorized the offer of financial assistance and free property to the board last summer, but the board did not take any action on it at that time. this problem together with an over-all assessment of the class- room shortage problem. CLAIMS MISCONCEPTION Father Gignac, in his brief, said there was a misconception bilingual schools. He said misconceptions might have been caused by news- paper articles last year and Skating Club Trophy Tests Completed The Oshawa Skating Club held its annual club competitions in mid-February, at the Oshawa Children's Arena. was very keen and each trophy was strenuously contested. The results were: FIGURES Novice -- Sharon McMahon, Rhonda Waisglass, Karen Schoe- neau, Maureen Hughes. Junior -- Avy Lycett, Cathy Debbie Shawn Leddy, Gail Nugent and Tana Leach. All of these fine young skaters are to be congratulated for the excellent performances demon- strated during these competi- tions, It should be noted that they will all be taking part in the annual Club Carnival on Sat- urday, March 23. : Competition election advertisements by a Separate School Board candi- date, "holding himself up as the champion of the Catholic taxpayers." Reference was made to "French schools,"' said Father Gignac. "What was it exactly that the French wanted?" the brief states. "They had asked for a bilingual school, not a French school. If there is such a thing in the province of Ontario it is privately owned and operated. "What the French people wanted for Oshawa, the eighth largest city in Ontario, was simply such a bilingual school for their tax money. They want their children to learn both French and English; English because they will live and make their livelihood for the greater part, very likely, in the prov- ince of Ontario, and French because of their family and so- cial ties with the French places of their various origins." Father Gignac pointed out that the French people had bought the land, kept it up concerning the true nature of land, would help out financially, by permission. of arche bishop of the diocese. Outlining the history of the French speaking group in Can- ada, the brief poimts out the French language is an official language in Canada. "We do not wish to infer this brief that any given hand- ful of French Canadians have the right to march solemnly upon any school board and de--. mand a bilingual school. "We do believe, however, that when a sufficient group of re- sponsible French Canadian families, all Separate School taxpayers for years, such as we have in Oshawa at the present time, are willing to make sacri- fices in sending their little ones to three different schools in outlying areas in four years, so that they may benefit by a bilingual education; when they are willing and ready to go out as apostles and have their com- patriots dig in deep in support of the board's building pro- gram for bilingual education in Oshawa, it is to be hoped and prayed for that the members of the board will take the hands ex- tended to them and will stand back to watch a rose grow from the thorny problem."
