4 Teachers take U-S: tour Sister Jeanne d'Arc Brunelle, better known to those she taught in Penetanguishene _ thirty years ago as Sister Roger, was the Canadian representative on the Global Teachers tour in the United States. Brunelle, who now teaches science at Tagwi Secondary School outside Cornwall, was chosen by the National Education Association of the United States, from three can- didates put forward by the Canadian Teachers Federation, to join teachers from eight other countries on the tour.

Brunelle said the tour was interesting, but "nothing was as enriching as living with the other eight teachers." At the WCOTP con- vention in Washington, Brunelle, and the Canadian Teachers Federation, received an honour. when they were given the National Education Association Peace Trophy, given to one of the teacher organizations which had done the most helping, sharing and un- derstanding throughout the world in the field of teaching. Brunelle said the announcement of the trophy provoked a spontaneous reaction on the convention floor, with representatives of the various countries Canada has helped out standing up to voice agreement with the announcement. Brunelle was in Lafontaine last week to visit her father, before returning to Cornwall to resume her duties at the Tagwi School. Court news Pleads guilty on 10 counts Robert John Maxwell, 16, of Port McNicoll was remanded until Sep- tember 23 for sentencing in Penetanguishene provincial court last Thursday after pleading guilty to 10 charges ranging from break and enter with intent to commit theft, to break, enter and theft over $200. Judge Len Montgomery listened to a list of the offences, which occurred between June 14 and June 24 of this year, and which involved a total haul of $1,005 worth of goods and damage amounting to $105. The string of incidents, which involved three other people, all juveniles, included break- ins at Port McNicoll Public School, two Port MeNicoll churches, the Martyrs' Shrine, a private house, and a number of cars. Eight- track tapes, a tool kit, and a Pioneer cassette tape player were taken from the cars. About $590 worth of the stolen goods have been recovered. Judge Montgomery ordered the remand so that a pre-sentence report could be prepared. Acquitted Edward Henderson was acquitted after a_ short trial in provincial court Thursday, on a charge of driving while under suspension Henderson had been stopped at 11:50 a.m. March 18 on Highway 27, and had produced an Ontario driver's license which police discovered was under suspension. The crown established that the license was in fact under suspension at the time of the incident, and that notice of suspension had _ been served on him in June of 1975. The suspension came about as a result of non- payment of fines. In order to get a con- viction for driving while under suspension, the crown must prove not only that the license was suspended, but that the accused knew his license was suspended. The defense attempted to raise a doubt in the Judge's mind that Henderson knew his license was suspended. Henderson _ testified that he had' indeed received the notice of suspension, but that, in spite of the fact that he was sure he had already paid the fine in question, he immediately sent another money order in payment of the fine to St. Catharines, where the riginal traffic violation ad occurred. He then kestified that he received affpther notice saying he 'had not paid his fine, and that his girlfriend sent off another money order to St.jCatharines. He said he Yelt that his license had been reinstated after this therd payment of the same fine and had proceeded to drive again. Henderson's attorney argued that although Henderson had _ not received a notice of reinstatement, he had reasonable grounds to believe he could drive at the time he was stopped and charged. Judge Montgomery allowed that there was no reason to disbelieve Henderson's __ testimony and decided to give him the benefit of the doubt in 'Ba An exclusive tour at 0.K.

Mischief A 16-year-old Toronto man appeared in court Thursday charged with mischief causing wilful damage. Robert Nadler, a student at Silverthorn Collegiate in Toronto, pleaded guilty to the charge, which arose out of an incident on a_beach in. Tiny Township, in which a publicly owned picnic table was thrown on a fire and burned. Nadler admitted to being on the beach, at the end of the 16th con- cession, with a number of other youths, and placing the table on top of the fire. Judge Montgomery ordered the preparation of a pre-sentence report, - and remanded Nadler to September 23 for sen- tencing. Jail sentence A 17-year-old Port MeNicoll man wound up with a total of 35 days in jail in court last Thursday after pleading guilty to one charge of theft under $200, and one charge of wilful damage. Dale Gadsby was charged with theft after having stolen a Volkswagen motor on April 20 of this year in Port MecNicoll. The owner of the motor spotted it a couple of days later on Gadsby's dune buggy. The wilful damage charge resulted when Gadsby and a co-accused, Roland Buttineau, pulled the ignition wires out of a snowmobile on January 17. The damage to the snowmobile was set at $35. Gadsby was sentenced to a fine of $50 or five days on the wilful damage charge, and ordered to pay $17.50 in restitution for the damage with a further jail term of 10 days if restitution were not paid. He was sen- tenced to 30 days in jail on the theft charge. Gadsby elected to serve 35 days in jail and pay the $17.50 restitution. Buttineau, the co- accused on the wilful damage charge, was remanded to September 16 for sentencing, while a pre-sentence report is prepared. Drunk John Goodreault of Midland pleaded guilty Thursday to charges of causing a disturbance in a public place, and being drunk in a public place, laid as a result of two separate incidents which occurred on May 21 and May 25. In the first in- cident, Goodreault ad- mitted he tried to provoke a fight on Richards Beach in Tay Township. In the second incident he was found walking westbound on William Street in Victoria Harbour, in an inebriated condition. Goodreault, 38, mitted he was an alcoholic, and said he was already under' the ad- supervision of a parole officer, and was trying to attend Alcoholics Anonymous. He was sentenced to a $75 fine or 10 days in jail on the first charge, and $20 or five days on the second charge. He was given 60 days to pay. . Impaired Forgetting about court appearance is not a lawful excuse for missing it, and it costa 52-year-old area man $75 to find that out in court Thursday. Medor Hamelin pleaded not guilty to the charge of failing to ap- pear, and to a charge of impaired driving, and chose to conduct his own defense. He was con- victed on both counts. The impaired driving con- viction led to a fine of $100 or 10 days in jail. » The court heard evidence from Ontario Provincial Police Con- stable Jim Wilson, who testified'that he had been directing traffic at the scene of an accident on highway 27 just south of Yonge Street, on February 22, when a car approached the scene. The car was driving in front of an ambulance, also approaching the scene, when it slowed down, stopped and started a few times, then began to back up into the ambulance. Wilson said the car stopped before hitting the ambulance, and when it did, he jumped in, pushing the driver into the passenger seat and driving the car off the roadway. Wilson said he smelled alcohol on the breath of the defendent, charged him with impaired driving and read him the standard breath demand. He then turned Hamelin over to Constable Murray Cooper to be taken back to the detachment. Constable Cooper testified that he had-taken Hamelin back to the detachment, where he turned him over to Constable Sec McWhirter, the breathalyzer operator. Constable McWhirter took the stand and stated that he had _ given Hamelin two tests, with results of .100 and .09. Constable Ivan Price, the OPP court officer, testified on the failing to appear charge, that Hamelin' had _ been released with a promise to appear in court on March 4. He had ap- peared that time and had been remanded a number of times. Price said he had failed to show up for one of the appearances, on May 6. Hamelin questioned the first witness briefly, then waived his right to question the rest of the witnesses and offered no defense. In passing judgement, Montgomery praised the quick action of Constable Wilson, who, by jumping into the car, he said, may have prevented a serious accident or even a death.
