B. Sissoos' ad- dress at the weekly Rotary Club emeeting held in the Balmoral Ho- ctel Friday at noon. Prof. Sissons Vgave members an enlightening rand new aspect of this recent re- sport released by the Ontario Gov- ernment. This meeting was in charge of Rotarian Mel Staples Who turned it over to Rotarian Walter Rey- nolds Who in turo introduced the speaker. Mr. Reynolds stated tYlat Prof. Sissons Who has beer a* resident of Durhami County for a number of years at his farm just south of Orono was keenly in- terested in ail fields of education. Writes History He was Professor of Ancient History at Victoria College. To- ronto, until his retirement. For many he has been a great student of history especially in the field of education and is noted for his book on the History and Life of Edgerton Ryerson. Prof. Sissons recently completed his book on the history of Victoria College. Holding aloft a huge 933 page volume Prof. Sissons started his address by stating that ai mem- bers of the Bowmanville Rotary Club were able to say that they had seen the "Report of the Roy- ai Commission on Education in Ontario 1950" better known as the Hope Report. Took Five Years Prof. Sissons stated that this volume was the work of tweoty men and women and the resuit of five years of deliberation. It is the produet of a lot of hard work and study, but he thought that it was impossible for ail the members to have studied every part of it, an he believ£d that the report was hot altogether writ- ten by one person. Prof. Sissons' personal feelings toward the re- port were mixed, some of At is very good, other parts fair and stili other parts poorer than that. He condemned the newspapers for the poor press reports they Escaped Prisoner Of Burwash Admits 13 Crimes in Court Arraigoed before Magistrate R. B. Baxter at Bowmaoville police court on 13 charges including car theft, breaking and entering and escaping custody, Arthur Walter Fryer, alias Rembrandt, 31, of Montreal and Sault Ste. Marie was remanded for trial in Co- bourg, Frîday. after pleading i guilty to ail charges. Shackled in handcuffs when he made his appearance in court here Tuesday. Fryer gave his oc- cupation as painter and artists. He escaped f rom Burwash Indus- trial Farm for the second time August 10 and was apprehended t at Grafton by O.P.P. Constable E C. E. Meadows, Cobourg, in a car j stolen from the Royal Pines Tour- i ist Home, King Street, Bowman- 1 ville, after an 85-mile-an-hour 1 chase. t Constable Ray Kowai of the E Bowmanville Detachment first 1 noticed Frver prowling around t Alexander Motors immediately 1 east of town. As Frver fled into a the trees nearby, Constable Kow- r ai fired a warning shot over his v head but Fryer paid no heed. a Shortly afterwards Kowal pick- t ed up a radie report from Peter- 1 borough in his cruiser which saia tý a car had been stolen from the C Ro ' al Pines Tourist Home. Kow- ai radioed Cobourg to alert that o detachment and Constable Mea- Iý dows, Who just came on duty, o ;potted Fr *ver going through Co- h bourg, caught up with him at a Grafton, and took him loto cus- todv. t!

There is nothing so discouraging, he said, after ail that work to have the newspapers shy away from a frank and penetrating discussion. In the oid days the press would have publishied a cornQplete report. Grave Matter Prof, Sissons continued that he ýhac1tread the report from cover (.0 cover and considered this matter of education theory a vcry grave question. The Hope Report advocates the adoption of the lockstep method where the pupils advance from grade to grade on an age basis, înstead of as now with the clever student advancing faster than an- other. The report recommends ages 6 to 12 for the Elementary SchooIÈ;: 12 to 16 for the Second- ary Schiools and ages 16 and over to Junior Colleges or Techoical Schools. Prof. Sissons stated that he coùld flot accept this doctrine. Under this proposed system a student would complete Grade XI at the age of sixteen then would pass loto a superior school, a j ior college or techoical school. Ilpwe had a Junior College in Bowmanville, operated by a Board of Education, the students wouid continue until they wcre 19 years of age and have complet- cd what is the equivalent of two years of university education. First Year Best Prof. Sissons cootinued that he did not think that the Junior Col- lege was a sound idea. He feit that the Universities already es- tablished had been running, some for 125 ycars, conducting highcr education for the benefit of young men, and later ,young women. They cao start at the age of 17 and in their first year Prof. Sis- sons feit that they gained a great <Continued on Page Seven> Mr. and Mrs. Harle Given Silver Service By Trinity Board Mr. and Mrs. R.
