Blaine Tyndall, candidate for Oshawa Board of Education in the Dec. 7 civic election, said today he accepted incumbent Trustee Stephen G. Saywell's challenge to prove his recent statements about attendance records. Mr. Tyndall had said: 'The attendance records of some trustees at board meetings is to my way of thinking, poor. I sug- gest very strongly that a trustee who attends only 60 per cent of e. meetings can at best only 'fulfill 60 per cent of his or her Obligations." In a prepared statement to- day, he said Mr. Saywell attack- ed what he had said "and stood up to defend his own attend record'. He quoted Mr. Saywell as say- ing at the Kinsmen Civic Forum Thursday night: "I missed three months on account of a mild heart attack but Mr. Backus, the board's administrator, will show you the record that I at-| tended 80 per cent of the meet- ings." | NO RECORD "I have been to see Mr. SS Board Will Name Two To Board Of Education Two future members of the Qshawa Board of Education don't have to worry about their chances in Monday's election-- they aren't candidates. The two trustees will be ap- pointed in January by the Osh- awa Separate School Board to represent city Separate School supporters on the Board of Education. "A portion of the taxes paid by Separate School supporters goes toward secondary school education and thus, by law, the supporters are entitled to repre- sentation on the Board of Edu- cation. Frank Shine, Separate School Board business administrator, told The Times today that the Board's representatives are re- stricted to voting on secondary ethool matters and cannot vote on elementary school issues. TWO APPOINTED Mr. Shine said the two repre# sentatives are appointed by the Board at its inaugural meeting fn January under the Schools Administration Act. Loyd Bolahood, retiring chair- man of the Board, said in the past the Board has had some difficulty in finding representa- tives "but I am not sure we have looked hard enough in the past either." He said in previous years new- ly elected trustees would attend inaugural meeting without having considered possible rep- resentatives. Now, he said, the Board holds a caucus meeting forced to resign several months ago due to the pressure of busi- ness, he said. "The idea of having Board § representatives on the Board of ¥RANK E. SHINE after the December election and before the first meeting of the new year. This time period will give the new trustees time to contact possible representa- tives, he said. Mr. Shine said that during the latter part of this year the Board has had only one repre- sentative on the Board of Edu- cation, Rohert Nicol. He said a vacancy occurred in 1963 follow- ing the death of Monsignor Phillip Coffey, a representative for about 21 years. A replace- ment was appointed but was Education is a good one and I don't think it has caused any problems in the past," said Mr. |) Bolahood. "There should be close liaison between the two Boards and they should be planning to- gether for the future,"' he said. Mr. Bolahood said the Board's representatives report back when they 'have information which might concern the sep- arate school system. CHANGE APPROVED He said the idea of having Separate School supporters elect their two representatives to the Board of Education was worth consideration. As an alternative, he suggestec it might be worth while to have 12 trustees elected to the Separate School Board with the Board appointing two of its members to serve on the Board of Education. Mr. Bolahood said at present it is not legal for a Separate School Board trustee to be a trustee on the Board: of Educa- tion. Mr. Shine said The Ontario Separate School Trustees Associ- iation would have to approve any change in the method of appointing representatives to the Board of Education. He said if the change was approved the Association would then approach the Ontario gov- ernment to introduce new legis- lation. 7 Get Life Memberships At the December meeting of the Oshawa Central Council of Neighborhood Associations, the "Awards Committee' proposed that seven members be granted life membership in the Council and that one person be granted honorary membership. Life membership recipients are R. J. Andrews, Chris Ma- son, Robert R. Cornish, Robert Germond, Charles Grimbleby, Fred Ellegett and Robert Wil- son. Life membership is awarded to individuals who have contrib- uted to the Neighborhood Asso- ciations and Central Council of Neighborhood Associations, who are no longer the elected repre- sentatives from their respective Neighborhood Associations but whom the Central Council wishes to retain as active mem- bers. These are the first individ- tals to receive the honor. The honorary membership aw- ard goes to Herb.

"There is no rec- ord of Mr. Saywell missing three months, two months or even one month due to illness of any\sort since the beginning of this year. Furthermore, his at- tendance record for monthly board meetings is not 80 per cent as he has stated, it is 624% per cent, a five for eight record. "His attendance at speciaily called board of education meet- ings is not 80 per cent, it is 63 per cent with a record of 18 for 23. These figures are from the records dating Jan. 20) to Nov. 23 this year. "T also feel I am being very! generous to Mr. Saywell in quot- ing these figures because on many occasions he arrived late or had to leave early because of other commitments." TWO MEETINGS MISSED "Out of 11 board meetings this year I missed two,"' Mr. Saywell said. "TI missed the May meeting while attending the Canadian Education Association short course at Banff, Alta, I was one of three school trustees chosen from all Canada to attend. "J missed the second meeting at the end of September when I was a delegate to the Ontario- Quebec, Maritimes Kiwanis con- vention." Mr. Saywell,-a 25-year vet- eran of the board who served Club To Host Senior Citizens | Max Deutsch, president of Club Loreiei, said today mem- bers of Oshawa's Golden Age Club will be entertained at a Christmas party Sunday.

H Freezing Rain Paralyzes Ont. | The first major storm of the, season brought freezing rain to southern Ontario and heavy snowfall to Northern Ontario and Quebec Friday and early today. : The freezing rain covered an area from Windsor to Kingston. Up to s.x inches of snow at Bracebridge and five inches in Montreal was. predicted before the storm subsides today. Rain and snow caused can- cellation or delay of most flights from Toronto airport between noon and midnight Friday. _ Metropolitan Toronto police traffic department called police- men in for extra duty because of hazardous driving conditions on ice-covered roads. The weather was blamed for the death of one Toronto man who collapsed while cleaning the windshield of his car. A 12- year-old boy was killed at Oak Ridges, Ort., when he was struck by a car during the snowstorm. DISRUPTS SHIPPING The weather also disrupted shipping on the lower Great Lakes. Three lake vessels pulled into Toronto Bay _ be- cause the weather made navi- two ocean-going ships were de- layed four hours in clearing by the ice, snow and hail in clear- ing Hamilton harbor. In the wake of the storm many Ontario and Quebec roads were left snow-covered or icy and drifting was expected in open areas.

"T am entitled to attend all of the committee meetings," he said, "'but I am only expected to attend the committee ings of which I am a member." 80 PER CENT RECORD He said that Mr. Backus told him today that taking the regu- Jar and committee meetings he was expected to attend "I have an 80 per cent attendance re- cord." He said Mr. Tyndall's charge of coming late and leaving early is false. Mr. Saywell said he opposed a starting change to 7.30 p.m. from 8 p.m. at the beginning of the year and told board mem- bers it would present a problem for him to get to meetings on time because of business obliga- tions. "But this business of leaving meetings early is entirely false. i nover ever ieave meetings until they are over." Mr. Saywell said that if every trustee's attendance record was gone over on the same basis one would come up with about the same record.

(Total for this is $2720.) He has advocated using schools. ' "We do use schools all we can, churches too," says Mr. Barrand. "But the polling sta- tion must be within the boundar-" ies of the allotted subdivision. "We have polling stations in. seven schools this year, but we- pay: the same rent for them as" we do for private homes," he. said. : $8,200 PAYROLL The payroll this year is $8,200.
