ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, WEDNESBAV, MARCH 10, 1971 Seon Cass Ma-1ýilRegistratroa Numri OJ6r QUI IPublished ever-y Thuiirsday at the offîie of publicatior * MainSfree~OronoOntaso. Phone 983-5301 THE IRONY 0F IT AL For the 'past few years the educataoe, along with a hhost of others anrd thds includes the news media, have been stressiirg hat h1gher education niaant job secunlty and greatar finanilal rewards. The falsity of thîs view mIay be blown sky,-hgh by the people who created the view. A clash between finanelal économies and higher education is now in the making within the cor-e of the educational System itself, the eounty Boards of Educatian. Ilt N also obvious that the Premier of Ot'o William- Davis, and former Winister of Education, is unaware that bis view ýis now' open to wide diseourse. Onfy last week-end In THalton County lie caintiiued to extoli the 'virtues of a higliar education una- ware that he hiinself had placed a miil-stone. around the neck of the educated by clamping -down on scheol hudg-eting Tihe Countv Boards of Education have hai ddirective (ias certainly it was tîme) frSem the DepartmeInt of Edu- catio-n to operate wthLi à certain area finpncai'liy. This bas necessitated saime Boards to cut back and the rest to hold the uine. It has brouglit into piay the aspect of financial ecoao'nras. . . Boards of Education are for-ed to econcm- ize and to spread the dollar a littie farthar. Thea greatast area of expendtura for the Boards las that of teachers salaries and it is naturai that Boards will look at thig field first. t is impossible to cut back on pres- ent salary scedules and outside of lay-eff s the only other ar-ca whare the Boards may stiretch the dollar lils iring teachers as replacements or to augment the staff. It is tis latter area where the Boards do intend to make thair- saving' and although it is not being state'd pub- licly'or set as a poiiey the word bas gone out - '4na new teachers will Ce~ hir-ad for elementar. pur-poses who carry teaohing txper-ience or a degree. t is possible for the Boards to*hire teachers coming out of teachers' college min- us any degree at a lasser- cost than those carr-ying a degree or expenience'. The wcld of ecoýnomies overcomas the theory of job security andl greater- finanIal rawards of a higher education. t is ironical that thàs myth of the past few years bas been b)roken by the very institution that created it. Township Faced WithRsn CostsÏ In Prepomarinrg* Boudget lhe Township of Clarke eouin- cil fûled a number of financlal rqulisitfaql requests 'wtlh-.refeti4 rai ta the finance committee.
