This decision was made by Oakville public school board at its regular monthly meeting Tuesday evening following pro- tests by Hunter Reld and H. F. Ryan, fathers of children attend- ing the class. Mr. Reid said his son had been put in a class of this kind before, and .that being away from the discipline of the school was bound to have an adverse effect upon him and the other pupils. Victoria Hall, Mr. Reid be- lieved, was mot suitable for a class. "I believe the -- experienée will seriously impede development of desirable scholastic habits," said Mr. Ryan, whose child was also in the separate class for the sec- ond year. "Missing school disci- pline for more than one year Is extremely undesirable. I think we owe it to these children to give them all the training we can. Victoria Hall, he pointed out, could not be properly heated in winter. A. Weatherstone, chairman of the board, explained that the board had hoped to be able to use a classroom in the new Westwood school addition early in 1951, but wouldn't be able to because of delay in the building schedule, which was two months behind. Steel which had been promised for August was only delivered last (Friday. "We are suffering a series of delays," said Mr 'Weatherstone. "Getting anyone in Westwood until well into next year is absolutely hopeless." Commenting on the need for new school accommodation due to the growth of the town, the chiarman predicted that within two years' time another complete school would have to be built in the new Forster survey. - agreed tha Mr. Weatherstone t the Victoria Hall arrangement was not satisfactory, and that make no further to council for the present, accord- ing to Jack Ribble, of Wm.

SEEMS LIKE A college was recently defined as a fountain of knowledge where students gather to drink. Signs At Variance "Mayor Black pointed out that the sign at the town's east ap- proach now Oakyille population to be 6,100 "At the west entrance, however, we still see that we are only 4,100," he commented with a chuckle. "It seems the highways department only works one way at a time, and I imagine "they'll catch up with our rapidly increasing population on their way back." proclaims some other solution to the present| overcrowding should be found. The High school board had been asked for the use of a room, he sald, but had refused it. The chairman, Mrs. Malcolm Smith, chairman of the educa- tion committee, Miss 'May Den: nis, principal of Westwood, and Inspector L. L. Skuce will work out an arrangement for a stag: gered class at Westwood. This will mean that Westwood pupils now attending Central will return to their regular school, and make room for those now in Victoria Hall. Total registration is 834, prin- cipals of the three schools re- vealed. This is an increase of 64 pupils over last year. Registra- tion at 'Brantwood is 327, at Cen- tral 343, and at Westwood 164. Mrs. Smith told the board she had received a complaint from one mother about the number of| flies at Central school. She blam- ed the proximity of the town dump. "If we had any more flies we'd need another storey on the school," commented Principal Holmes. "They're quite bad." Clarence Byers, secretary of the board and also town clerk, pointed out that the dump was sprayed daily with D.D.T. which eliminated the flies. FACE LIFTING NEAR END, LUSK HALL HAS NEW LOOK Hall undertaken by the congre- gation of John's United Church are still unfinished but are sufficiently advanced to per- mit reopening of the Sunday School on September 24: This is the report from J. A. Caulder, head of the building committee in charge of the renovation work, and Harry Coote Smith, new sup- erintendant of the Sunday School who succeeds the ldte Gordon Watts, superintendant for many years before his recent death. St. Johns has followed the lead of many other churches in chang- ing the time of its Sunday School from an afternoon to a morning time. For a trial period at least, the Sunday School will' be held at 11.00 a.m., parallelling the morn- ing church service. Another innovation is introduc: tion of a nursery department for children below the ages of four years. Executives of St. Johns feel that the nursery department will be a distinct help to parents with very young children, who wish to attend the regular morning church services. As part of the new Sunday School plan, the church has in- vited Rey. Frank P. Fidler and Mr. Roy Belford, whose work on the United Church Board of Christian Education keeps them in constant touch with Sunday School problems, to address a meeting in Lusk Hall on the eve- ning of Wednesday, Sept. 27. All those interested are invited to at- tend. CRICKET COMMENT By BERT BOORER NEWS HELD OVER FROM PREVIOUS WEEK'S PAPER Oakville cricketers took a beat- ing in" their last match of the sea- son, played Saturday against St. Edmund's of Toronto at Appleby College. The score was 100 to 79 for the visitors. St. Bdmunds bat- ted first, and scored 38 runs for the first four wickets. Then B. Ince and J. Rogers took the score to 86, 'when Ince was put out for 26 runs, Rogers carried the total of 100, and was ninth out for 40. Bruce Lockhart distinguished himself by taking 3 wickets for 6 runs, D. M. Dewar had 3 for 28, Ty Wiffen one for 11, and 7. Dix two for 23. Blake Millar and Pete Downe started the batting for Oakville, and only two runs were scored when Millar was bowled for one, D. Mills was put out for 11 and Downe for 19. Half the side was out when Chris. Armstrong went to bat and rolled up 25 runs be- fore being put out for Lb.w. Bib Macrae was caught for 7 runs, Buck Hepburn was bowled for 1 and D. M. Dewar for 3. J. Dix was caught, and Ham Smith was not out. Ince, bowling for Oakville, took 4 wickets for 15 runs, Mar- Extensive renovations to Luske Oaks Pluck Crows (Continued from Page 1) land miscues added another pair in the sixth to give the locals a comfortable 7-0 lead. Mark Tires Up to this point, Mark Pollock had the visitors well and neatly handeuffed, tossing up his pepper- fest assortment of shoots as he doled out two meagre singles. The pace began to tell on the stocky twirler in seventh, how-| ever, as Crowland pushed over it's first run. The boys from the fruit-belt tacked on three more in the eighth, as the Oaks added single tallies, leaving the count at 9-4 as the last inning opened. Mark still apeared to have the situation in hand, even when a hit and a pair of errors loaded the sacks with two out. A drive through the box, which carromed off Pollock's payoff hand, plated two more runs, however, and brought AT Yarnell rushing to the rescue. "Old Folks" came up with a perfect fireman's chore, sending the last Crowland batter down on strikes to end the game. Actually, the Oaks had a better edge than the final score indicat- ed, and over confidence contrib- uted largely to three of the five errors that set the water to boil- ing for their persevering hurler. Hank Galbraith and andy Milne provided the brightest fielding features, while Ken Pollock start- ed a fast double play that was a bandy highlight. The teams lined up as follows: CROWLAND: Knezich; cf; Men- ard 3b; Haydu rf; Hodowan 2b; Trotter ss; Blazetich c; Kodat- sky 1b; Hominuik 1f; Buchkow- ski p; Buzash p. OAKS: K.
