School Area Chairman Reports *BROUGHAM -- D. C. Gibson, chairman of the Pickering Township School Area No. 1 has issued a statement to the rate- payers of the school area re- porting on the organization and work of the board since its formation. The report states: "On Jan, 1, 1965, the 16 school sections and area in the north and east sections of Pickering Township ceased to exist. The 16 separate administrations op- erated 18 schools with 45 teach- ers and 1,300 pupils. Replacing the former trustees was the new five-emember board elected in December. The new board of trustees consists of Mrs. Elean- or McKean, Charles McTaggart, Donald Gibson, Gordon Pearce and Ronald Simons. CAPABLE ADMINISTRATOR "During its first three months of operation the new board has completed the initial phases of the transition from 16 former boards to one central admini- stration. It was recognized quickly that the five board members could not begin to) cope with the problems handled) so well in the past by the 52) trustees and 16 secretary trea- surers. Thus, one of the first acts of the board was to ad-| vertise for a business admini-| strator. After studying the nu- merous applications to the board, Lloyd Johnston was em- ployed. Mr. Johnston brought to the position an expert know- ledge of municipal affairs and an outstanding record of service to his township after 33 years in the township office. "The board was most fortun-| ate to have, among its existing} assets, the old Green wood| School, The north half of the! school was soon converted to) the area headquarters and now| houses the office of the busi- Club Plans Ice Revue BROOKLIN -- Residents of| the Brooklin area are looking forward with much anticipation to the presentation this Friday} 3 night, at the Brooklin Arena, by the Brooklin and Area Figure] 3 Skating Club, of its first Ice Revue. More than 140 children, rang-| # ing in age from three to 18) § years, will take part. The revue will demonstrate the develop- ment program being carried on by the club from the youngest to the oldest member. The club is now in its second year of operation. It started when artificial ice was install-| fe ed in the arena. Arthur Petre, of Oshawa, is director of skat- ing and Mfrs: Gloria Taylor, of Toronto, is the club professional. Guest artists appearing during the evening will be Forder and Stephens, of Port Perry, who took part in the junior pairs competition at the Canadian Figure Skating Championships in Calgary, and Ann Marie Tay- lor, a member of the Toronto Cricket, Club.

Here, on the second Monday in each month, the board meets to conduct the business of the area. Of course, if has been im- possible to investigate and re- solve all questions facing the new board in its one regular monthly meeting. Thus, the lights in the old Greenwood School have burned late many nights during the past three months. "Shortly after assuming of- fice, the board elected, Donald Gibson to the position of chair- man and Mrs. Eleanor Mc- Kean, vice-chairman. The new board then toured the entire area and visited every school, where the problems of each were discussed with the former trustees and secretaries. Since then, the board has met with the principals for the purpose of establishing policies and pro- cedures for school operation and instruction. On Feb, 11 ne- gotiations were completed with the teachers' salary committee and the first salary schedule was established. rate of 15 has been set for this year. It is anticipated that $158,- 000 will be required from mu- nicipal taxes. This compares with $156,000 im 1963 and $135,- 000 in 1964. The 1964 reduction was attributable mainly to the liquidiation in former section surplusses which had been built up over previous years. Many sections either reduced their levy or levied no tax at all in 1964, "At an open house on Mar. 15 the board met with the teachers in the area, Here, at the new area office, over coffee and sandwiches the board members and the teachers became ac- quainted. Now the board is en- gaged in a study of the staff requirements for next Septem- ber and has already advertised for teachers to fill the known vacancies. "Much has been accomplished during the first difficult weeks. The board deeply appreciates the co-operation it has receiv- ed from the former trustees, teachers 'and secretaries..

Clarke To Buy Sanding Truck ORONO (TC) -- At a special meeting of the Clarke Town- ship Council, it was decided to extend its services in the road department by the purchase of a truck and sand box. This pro- posal. will be given formal rati- fication at the next regular meeting of council in April. The road superintendent was given authority at the meeting to call for tenders for the new truck. The sand box, similar to those used by the Depart- ment of Highways, will be pur- chased through the county which is now making a number of purchases for itself and other townships within the area. At the present time Clarke Township has only one vehicle for sanding which is not ade- quate to look after all the town- ship roads during periods of icing. Also the method of sand- ing by this truck is not con- sidered to be the best. e e 3 t tl ported at the annua) meeting of the.
