He cautioned King residents to plan so a scth won’t have to be abandoned in three or four years. He said the teaching load could be equalized more easily with one board oper- ating schools over a larger area, by altering school at- tendance boundaries. Certain grades could be mov- ed to gain educational advan- tages. This involves transport- ation, Mr. MacDonald said. giv- ing as an example, Grades 7 and 8 could be moved to their advantage and remaining grades would benefit. “In an area you have the op- portunity to close smaller schools where their operation is uneconomicai," he suggested. “If in the future you want «to form central] schools and get graded schools, that is eight grades to a school, and abandon one or two schools. you can de- preciate a one-room school ovgr 20 years and two-room’or larg- e; on a 50-year basis." he add-I e . “There is opportunity to use special equipment, spouts equip- ment, auditoriums and fields lo- cated in some schools," Mr. MacDonald noted.

He considered an area does provide a better opportunity to attract teachers in its uniformi- ty of treatment, the same poli- cies applying to all.

He noted 100 applications were received in Vaughan for 18 unadvertised positions open this year. Some teachers left because of marriage or family obligations, but actual-by only one man .teacher was moving because he thought (he could do better elsewhere. No Surplus of Teachers “It is still estimated there are 200 fewer teachers than needed In the province, so fthere isn’t a surgl-us yet,” Mr. MacDonald sat .

Trans- portation under two milles means a new grant schedule. “One disadvantage is you mus-t double on routes 01' the cost is out of reach; some leave early in the morning and ge¢ home late," Mr. Kerr said. “I think people are inclined to ask more of a larger board. such as teachers," was Mr. Kerr's View.

Last year Mrs. Gibbs, Lake Wilcox repre- sentative of Whitchurch coun- cil. made an effort to have the limit set at 30 miles per hour all around the lake and the scene was visited by Depart- ment of Highways Minister Rowntree. It was pointed out at that time that the only area where the 30 mile limit could be enforced was the small sec- tion of the South Rd. between Park Cres. going east and turn- ing to come west. This is due to the fact that the Lake Wilcox area fronting on the main ser- vice road is not considered to be a sufficiently built-up area. but the 40 mile limit can be and is enforced wherever indi- cated. ‘ As a result of an accident re- cently to Douglas Hogben, South Rd., many residents voic- ed concern over the 40 mi-le speed limit in this area.
