EN Pr / -------- SERN SE TRE SNELL NAA 16 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, Feb. 28, 1973 A cautious prevailed at Northumberland and Durham County board of education meeting when the optimism Thursday's "talk swung to the proposed regional government. Board members met with ministry of education officials, including John Smith, parliamentary assistant to the minister, on Feb. 14. . Chairman Art Rowan said that while he had '"'nothing concrete' to go on, he left with a "better feeling than when I went in." United Counties trustees are worried their school system will be dismem- bered, the parts inside the proposed region joining a truncated Ontario County board, the parts outside going to other boards. Ontario County board has accepted the principle of identical municipal and school board boundaries for the region. Education Director for Public not interested in schools A fluctuating number of trustees took a tour of the Northumberland and Durham County school board's western frontier. Afterwards, they held their regular board meeting at the new Bowmanville High School. The trip touched on M.J. Hobbs senior elementary near Hampton, Hampton Junior Public School, Orono Public School, Clarke High School, and the now unused old Bowmanville High School. Trustee Al Werry, from Enniskillen noting that the board meeting was well- advertised, expressed dis- appointment at the resident turn-out. The rows of seats for spectators were empty.

"They want to take the whole thing, and whether they get it depends on who has the most weight," he said. Mr. Rowan disagreed. "There's been a lot of talk without too much weight. We can't believe anything we heard until we get a final answer." a Ontario County Trustees tour schools Big issues facing United Counties school trustees were given a visual exam- ination during their tour of six schools last week. They clambered through the deserted old Bowman- ville High, and heard the various alternatives pro- posed for the building. Renovations to make it suitable as a senior elemen- tary school would cost $800,000. Building a school "They must be well- satisfied because no-one has turned up to listen," he suggested. Trustee Al Strike of Bow- manville replied '""That's one way of looking at it." He added that the purpose of meeting in the west end of the United Counties instead of Cobourg was not just to give people a chance to come see the board in action, but also to acquaint trustees with the "'problem areas' in the western sector. "If the people come out that's terrific," he said. Board newcomer Ken Lyall, from Newcastle, said "silence means consent. If the people aren't here they're happy.
