Dear Sir: The Halton Roman Catholic School Board has decided to remove all cherâ€"librarians from small elementary schools and all secondary schools September 1994. In these days of studentâ€"centred learning and independent studies, the ard is showing how little it understands the value of the school library. fssroom teachers expect quality research and the teacher librarian ures this. All taxpayers should challenge the Board‘s wisdom in this matter. They ieve that by replacing the qualified teachers with cheaper library techniâ€" ns, the students‘ performance will not be affected. Ask on what this conâ€" }sion is based. No studies or reports support such a claim. The Board s that with the growing technology, teachers are no longer necessary in library. How can a technician, with no teacher trammg, deal with curâ€" lum, assist other teachers in planning classes, supervise and teach stuâ€" ts as a teacher is legally bound to do, and maintain a collection that is in ping with the expectation of both the Ministry of Education and the ool? Ask to see the "Master Plan" for September. It does not exist yet. Call your local trustee(s) and insist on a good reason, FROM THE STUâ€" am standing in the middle of Oakville Place talking about impotence with three strangers. I'hls may seem rather odd, at first ice. But along with impotence, we ate the merits of John‘s hairpiece, therine‘s second â€" count m...two â€" face lifts, and whether or , she looks more wrinkled now n before the first one. NTS‘ POINT OF VIEW, why such a decision has been made without sulting the parents or anyone knowledgeable in the role of school aries. The bottom line is... the students will be disadvantaged from the k of a teacher running the school library and those who have made the cision are crying crocodile tears of support.

She replies, "Oh, since the old Jack Abbott," Everyone around nods, as if to place exactly which episode the new Jack appeared. This sets off another spirited debate as to whether or not the new Jack is better than the old. This particâ€" ular debate lasts quite some time as loyalties are pitted against each other. "I like the old Jack," pronounces one longâ€"time fan. Everyone vents an opinion, as it gets hotter and hotter. Even the peoâ€" ple crowding the balcony above look hot. We‘re getting a little impatient here. After all, this has been billed as the war of words between two arch rivals â€" Jill and Katherine. We want some action. And they are late. We listen as it is announced the Town Clerk TOWN OF OAKVILLE How WOULD You LIKE NA AND GRAMPA To MOVE IN FOR A WEEK? stars are on their way. And then, they appear. "Ooh, they are perfect, just perfect," says one noting the tiny waistline of Jill; the snappy comeâ€" backs of Katherine. The loyal fans â€" and this soap opera seems to attract intensely loyal ones dating back to the very first show 24 years ago â€" never miss a show. If they do think they‘ll miss it, they tape it. For, as one fan noted afterwards speaking glowingly of the appearâ€" ance, it is as though these people on the small screen are family. Jean Ashworth and Sue Lynes both love the unreal situations in a soap opera. "Have youâ€"ever noticed how they never finish a meal? Or do the dishes or shovel the snow?" says Lynes. Even. though the Smith Triller Viaductâ€"was opened for use on August 20, 1993, cleanup, finishing touches and all of the landscaping work associated with it have conâ€" tinued into the 1994 season. This work, costing less than 1% of the total project cost should be completed by the end of June, 1994. THIRD HERITAGE CONSERVATION DISTRICT STUDY Please be advised that a public information meeting will be hosted by the Planning Services Department to discuss the Third Heritage Conservation District Study. The meeting is to be held on Tuesday, June 21, 1994 in the Oakville Room, Town Hall, 1225 Trafalgar Road, commencing at 7:30 p.m. The specific purpose of the meeting is to present the draft Heritage District Plan for the proposed Third Heritage Conservation District Area. The preparation of the draft District Plan represents the final phase of the district study, and follows extensive analysis of the study area which is detailed in the Heritage Assessment Report. The findings of the Assessment Report were presented at an earâ€" lier public information meeting. The draft District Plan contains goals, objectives, policies, recomâ€" mendations and guidelines respecting the successful future conâ€" servation, maintenance and protection of the distinctive heritage features and character of the area in question. Any individuals wishing to attend this meeting and speak to this matter are invited to do so. A copy of the draft District Plan will be available in the Planning Services Department as of June 17, 1994, and will also be availâ€" able at the public information meeting. Any questions regarding this item may be directed to the Planning Services Department at 845â€"6601, extension 3040. The boundaries of the proposed Third Heritage Conservation District, for which the District Plan will be subject to, are irregular in shape, and are generally described as follows: The west boundary follows the Sixteen Mile Creek and includes all lands on the east and west side of Trafalgar Road from Randall Street to Old Mill Road. The north boundary generally follows the back property lines on the north side of Spruce Street from Trafalgar Road to Reynolds Street. The eastern boundary extends south along Reynolds Street to just north of Palmer Avenue, and then east over to Allan Street, to include all those properties on the east side of Allan Street between Brantwood School and Randall Street. The southern boundary generally follows the back lot lines of those properties on the south side of Summer Avenue between Trafalgar Road and Allan Street. For precise boundary delineation, please contact the Planning Services Department. Dated at the Town of Oakville this 8th day of June, 1994.

"My supper would never be done if it weren‘t for the Y R," she says. The debate about the recent; episode continues, with more and: more in the crowd speculating about: who may get written out of the show. â€" Finally, the stars wave goodâ€"bye, happy to have pleased the fans and raised money for the Hospital for Sick Children Foundation. And even as they walked away, a few of the fans couldn‘t resist more critical analysis. "Oh yes, they‘re much fatter on television," she says knowingly to her friend. They walk away, clutching their own polaroids, already immersed in another hot debate over the size of Jill‘s waistline. To the everâ€"lasting satisfaction of fans everyâ€" where, the soap opera never ends. m by Steve Nease
