one can be presented to the Queen while she s in Canada for official sanction It isn likely that the Queen would refuse his choice Two names are most prominent in the list of possibilities They are

lawbreaker the theory is that that lawbreaker would face the death penalty But the lawbreaker would never go to the gallows His sen tencc would be commuted and he would serve a prison term instead He would probably be back on the streets before the policeman family reached middle age Canada is supposed to have a death penalty for the of policemen and prison guards and even for treason but in more

Mr It miaul l With respect lo the creation of the chairmen system which will replace headships Mr stated teachers have voted per tent against changing from the present department heads system to one of chairmen We maintain that department heads arc specialists and the ihairmen do not have lo be specialists In many if the areas fin winch they will be responsible A hierarchy is beinc which will remove Ihe chairmen away from Ihe classroom Another of administration is being created Will this meet the needs students and mi prove schools To my thinking the chairmanship idea is practised on a five year experimental basis in one of our schools and the chairman will teach very little classroom teachers will have to pick up the extra load and students will lose in terms of individual teacher time in larger classes We feel department heads need changing the machinery for such is there and it ought to be used if valid reasons arc given The board has passed the reorganization of staff cording to the chairmanship plan and the morale of the has sunk to a very low level In long run when morale is low is ihe students who will tie changed The board must be held responsible for whal is take place in ihe next years My hope is parents to become aware it is loo late Trustees should be held accountable fur ir ions in the next the lion I can only repeal what Pi of xilhur Porter a member
