North York Board of Education In considering planting I “watch- dog" on the township's Planning Board to ensure rezoning will not throw out their future school popu- lation calculations. Mr. Busch, who determines future school populations on the basis of existing zoning, submitted 25 reports, all of which were quea- tioned at great length‘by trustees who felt many of the areas in- Volved could be rezoned. Mr. Busch explained that the Board would indicate its disap- proval to the Planning Board on nny rezoning that it felt would Jeopardize existing school facilities. But some of the trustees felt they could not rely on this procedure. Trustees K. Wang and J. M. Clancy submitted a motion that would require a standing commit- tee of five members to rotate at- tendance at Planning Board meet- ings when zoning amendment ap- plication: were being discussed. The motion was based on a reso- lution endorsed by the Ontario The House of Commons last week gave first reading to a bill intro- duced by Ralph Cowan to repeal the Tobacco Restraints Act. Last year the liberal MP for York-Humber termed the present Act a farce in that it was not reasonable and was not enforced.

He continued: "Those who are students of the aocialistic experi- ment will not be taken in by the myth that the N.D.P. is the only party to keep its promises.

Saul Cowan', chairman of the Board, reprimanded the trustees for criticising something they had approved earlier: N agree that we should perhaps exercise greater caution in the future but you ap- proved of the budget and it's now too late to do anything about it." Trustee Darnell disagreed and heatedly demanded why the board had not received a report she had requested from the officials on last year's expenditures. "I asked for this report a month go so we'd have it in time to compare and discuss it with this year's expenditures," she said angrily. " should also like to know how this board an overspend without the approval of the Board," she said. In reply to Trustee Darnell's earlier remarks on "selling an idea" which Mrs. Darnell consider- ed m1perfhtouts since she herself felt the program good and not in need of telling, Mr. Cowan said it w a matter of pointing out the pnrpou ’of the program. The chairman pointed out that the budget had not been overtrpent md that a little over $5,000 still remained. But Trustee B. C.
