PECIALS i DELEGATIONS PROTEST Chamber Overcrowded It was standing room only at last night's city council mee ing when members of two dele- gations, children from two pub- © lic schools, the community chest committee, the parents of ath- lete Andy Boychuk and a visit- ing New Zealand school teacher were in attendance. Public seating on both sides of the chamber was full, th community chest gations overflowed into th lobby. Council did not get down t business on the nearly 10 p.m. The delegations were protest- ing the rise in prices for skat- ing and hockey at the Chil- dren's Arena, and the proposed sale of houses in Centre and John Streets for erection of a drop-in centre, and the Grade 7 and 8 children were from Beau Valley and Vincent Mas sey schools taking some in struction in civic affairs. Mr. and Mrs. Boychuk were presented with a gold medal on behalf of the city by Alderman representa- tives lined up behind aldermen, and some members of the dele- agenda until é t | e le 0 S CITY PRESE Gordon Attersley, in recognition of their son's _achievements in because he was working in Sar- : "4 the Pan-American games thiS|nia and he paid tribute to the|WaS Miss Geraldine Miller of|tions were overturned and to-|$1,937.50 in 1956 to $27,731 summer.

Leo Karnath of 146 Centre St., spokesman for residents of Cen- tre, McGregor, Monk, John and Fairbanks Streets, who submit- ted a petition of protest against the scheme, said this at city council meeting last night. Mr. Karnath was congratu- lated by Mayor Ernest Marks for the eloquence of his presen- tation. On the motion of Ald. William Paynter, who said some inter- esting points had been brought out by Mr. Karnath, council de- cided the petitioners should be invited to. meet with the special committee working on the drop- in centre to present their objec- tions; and that invitations should go out to them for this purpose. The committee is also to report back to council. Mr. Karnath pointed out the petitioners were not a group of young people and most of them are over 60. The cost of the centre was prohibitive and, was going to en- tail something that should not happen in any city -- destroy- ing badly needed homes in the downtown area, he said. Bargaining Issue Arises Before Contracts Expire Board of control has encoun- tered a bargaining issue even before negotiations have start- ed over working contracts that expire this year for two civic employee groups. The board opened a day-long legislative sitting yesterday by getting entangled in a question centred around whether board members should play a role of observation or active bargain- ing in contract talks. ~ Déspite objections by Con. Margaret Shaw, members agreed it should assume an observation part. in negotia- tions expected to get under way shortly. Two-year contracts for about 130 city fire fighters and some 70 employees of Hillsdale Manor home for the aged expire at the end of this year." Con. Shaw feels that board of 'control would only be a "dummy" in actual bargaining if it acts only as an observer. "Surely we have a little bit of common sense," she said. For the first time in the city's history, a professional bargain- ing firm has been retained to ert Nicol and Mayor Ernest Marks thought the board would be better off playing a liaison role. No final decision has been made. The question came to light when D. A. Murray, personnel department head, and David Byers, a consultant for Central Ontario Industrial Relations In- stitute, approached the board to get bargaining teams set up. Mr. Murray and Mr. Byers recommended that fire chief Ernest Stacey and Hillsdale superintendent Douglas Johns should be involved in bargain- ing. However, they did not recommend board representa- tion. Looking down the table at Mr. Byers, Con. Shaw said: 'In all fairness to this gentleman, I cannot agree with him. There! should be elected officials on the committees." j Mr. Byers and Mr. Murray said if the board appointed a bargaining representative, he general purpose --_ committee, | week. lam disturbed that the counciljcoming in so I didn't bring up/opposed to it for 1968.

Mr. Armstrong indicated that a shift may be made to link up with the centre of its city bus operation on Farewell Avenue in the southeast end. He said PUC land in that area is large enough to accommodate a new building containing all commis- sion operations. PUC general manager, J. B.| Annand, says a lack of land for PUC development at its current headquarters is so scarce that the only way to build there would be up. And at that, there would be a parking problem, Mr. Armstrong adds. Mr. Williams said in an inter view following the meeting that the growth within the city's core has not kept pace with the city on the whole.
