Hamilton Township Opposed. To Closing Schools s iHamilton Township councîl was 1accused by Mr. J. M. Rolph, form- er chairman of the County Sehool 3 Board, of "playing to the gallery' over the closing of schools in the north of their township. The'accu- sation came at the Board meet- ing last Thursday when a copy of a letter from Hamilton Township to the Minister of Education was filcd by the Board. The letter also asked the Prem- ier William Davis to take what- ever 'action necessary to prevent the closing. Mr, Rolph questioned whvether the township council reflected tbe wishes of the people of the township Hie nef erned to a meeting on the subject of closing the schools held in May at Camborne and said t he general rcaction at that meeting was that the closing of the tbree schools concerned Har- wood, Plainville and Bewdley xýiould' be beneficial to ail Grade 7 and 8 pupils The Board plans to replace the tbree schools with oné senior el- ementan?7 school someWbere in the North Cobourg-ilamilton area The location of this new school bas not been settled yet' by the, Board. The former chairman of the board also noted tbat few mem- bers of council attended the May meetin g and that some of the principals of the schools were also not in attendance. "I find it surprising, said Mr, ilolph, that township council should take tbis view since the genenal concept of the people at the meeting was favourable to the schools being losed. G. K. Sherwin,, the board re- by me but he didn't show up," he added. "This follow is out to mako trouble for us lu the north part of the townshi'and for the township as a wholz." Bob, Eakins of Cobourg propos- ed that a letter be sent to the Mînister of Education on the ma- er reviewing what has already- transpire. "l don't feol we have- goeamîss", he added. It was Pointe-. out at the meet- ing that an objection can always be aired at the meeting of the school board and even, as a mat- ter 'of fact, with a committee of the Board. (ommittee -0f Adjusment A large number of applicants for land severauces anid minor variances lu Clarke Township have 'been disappointed in the time nequined to process such applications. The proviýions of the Planning Act requine min- imurn tim-ýs for eacb stop wbich times, cannôt ho altered by the Committee.
