New- market Seek Elected Board King City Women's Institute is pursuing its campaign of several months to have high school board members elected by the public rather than ap- pointed to office. W. R. Stewart. assistant sup- erintendent of secondary edulc- ation, who officially opened King City Composite School in April, gave considerable en- couragement to the delegation, Mrs. Austin Rumble told The Liberal. Mrs. Rumble thought the next step would be for the branch to revise its resolution, possibly omitting reference to "women board members, and forward the proposal again through W.I. levels. When their proposal was re- jected recently by York County Council, the institute made an appointment and conferred with a Department of Education of- ficial at Queen‘s Park. She was accompanied by W.I. members Mrs. William Wil- loughby, Mrs. Robert Innes, Mrs. E. McCoy and Mrs. How- ard Hayward. The institute also favored more women being represented on high school boards. whether they are elected or appointed. They learned that high school boards are usually elected only where a board of education exists. Mrs. Rumble said the group was urged to continue working for a system of elections and advised it would be accomplish- ed when enough ratepayers were sufficiently interested to support the change. Last year the resolution by the King City Branch was pass- ed by the district conference and later the area convention. but did not receive the approval of the higher body, the Feder- ated Women’s .Institutes of Ontario. Awards sponsored by King City Home and School Associa- tion were presented to winners of junior and senior field days at Eva L. Dennis School. Tom Cober presented medals to the two champions in the ‘senior division. Florence Mc- Donald and Gunther Schlag. Florence McDonald’s winning team received track bars to be worn on their sleeves. Poian were given for all competitions during the two half-days. The girls and boys tried obstacle races, hop, skip and jump, high jump, soccer kicks. throwing balls, balanc- ing on the edge of a plank running bases and tossing bean bags. ‘Large Increase In the junior section. Miss Alice Hall awarded medals to Renate Schlag and Raye Bar- rett. While the number of build- ing permits issued for the first six months dropped from last year, the total estimated value of all construction more than doubled in King Township.

They visited TOWARF (Traf- algar-Oakville Water Air Res- cue Force), where instruction is given on water safety and artificial respiration. TOWARF was started five years ago because of the drown- mg of three scouts. It is a ‘voluntary organization. Saturday night the boys had a weiner roast and sing-song after spending Saturday after- noon witl. the search master on a cruiser. He showed the boys how it operated and let them steer the boat. The scouts were taken to Oakville Park for swimming Saturday. On Sunday the boys were picked up about 4 o’clock by Bill Orton and A. Thorne. and driven home. Instead of the boys bringing individual food for these trips. .they will be asked to pay so. much per meal and food is‘ bought for the group. Some parents feel they cannot afford to do this. Members of the group committee say this should be remedied and the Scout Mast- er feels that no boy should be denied the privilege of going on trips because he cannot pay.
