A Whitchurch Township by- law requiring kennel owners to have licences for all dogs in their care, has brought on an angry Protest from the owners. Walter Becker. RR 3, Stoufi- ville, claimed council was de- liberately putting the kennel owners out of business, and said the operators would go to court if council ignored their protests. He said there were about 30 kennels in the township and some had as many as 500 dogs. “How can the owner possibly pay a fee for each animal?” he asked. Deputy-reeve Stewart Burn- ett said the bylaw was passed to keep kennels from maving into the township from Metro.

This is common practice Mr. Pierpoint explained that the proposed addition to the King School had been decided upon in committee but “no official action will be taken unless it’s at a pubâ€" lic meeting.” He said the purpose of com- mittee members was to work out “I'm afnaid we’re getting to the point where we‘re running just for the sake of it. I think it's time we said. ‘No further' Mr. Van Luyk also indicated that there was an increasing disâ€" regard for the value of money with palace-like schools being construc- ted. He felt if suitable facilities were available they should be used, “and they are available at Kettleby. “It‘s a waste of time for the pupils," he said, “even though the children won‘t care. They'd be just as happy spending six hours on a bus and three hours at school but it won’t help their education. It’s unbelievable the money spent each year on transportation." Mr. Van Luyk specifically cited the transportation involved in tak- ing senior pupils from one side of the township to the other. money,” he said. “to put all the senior pupils in the King School when the facilities are just as good at Kettleby."

Township School Board Mr. Pierpoint went on to defend the board‘s decision to locate 311! senior pupils at King citing the fact that “the trend today is to- ward centralization to assure all pupils are given the best available opportunities for an education. Mr. Pierpoint also commented that any trustee had a right to dn‘ssent and “it’s his duty to do so if he disagrees. It’s naive to think anything else.” Mr. Pierpoint countered stating it would have been when plans were more definite. Mr. Van Luyk interjected to stress he still thought the public should know what the board is m~ tending to do and "that it should be discussed at an open public meeting." “Until this approval is reâ€" ceived,” he said, “we’d be pre- mature in announcing any intend- ed action when we don't know if we’ll even be able to go ahead. When we know, the public will know at the regular board meet- He stated also that no definite decision on any addition to the King Senior School could be taken until approval was received first from the York County Consult~ ative Committee and then further tentative approval from the De~ partment of Eduction. with any board.” “Education,” he said,’"Â¥ih‘gs‘"ad- In other business, the board accepted the resignations of four teachers and announced the hiring of nine others to fill out the schools’ complement for NEWMARKET: Len Russell of 1‘ Sharon was elected president] of the East Gwillimbury Minor 1- Hockey Association at the an-i nual spring meeting.

I'; NEWMARKET: Plans for the building of a permanent train- ing centre on Eagle Street, have b_een completed by Newmarket and District Association for the Mentally Retarded. In order to raise funds for the $30,000 pro- ject, which is not eligible for grants at this time. there will be a door-toâ€"door canvass in Newmarket this week. “But we haven’t got one shred of authority on the crossing guard matter," said Mr. Pier- point. He suggested the associa- tion approach council again on the matter for further advice. Board members also felt the $15 a week fee ordered might be too low and unattractive to potential applicants. Mr. Pierpont repeated the board was in sympathy with the crossing guard situation. Mr. Pienpoint noted the town- ship council had accepted the responsibility for supplying crossing guards and had located one at Oak Ridges. Mrs. Underhili agreed stating it was a case of "no one wanting the job here.” He added that the board had no authority in connection with the roads and suggested supply- ing appropriate alternatives to a safety guard was the function of a police department. “We have always felt,” he said, “we should not put the lives of children into the hands of other children. I don’t think it’s right or fair to have child- ren aged 12, 13, or 14 looking after grades 1 and 2 children.” Requests 1had been made to install a cross-walk on King Street but “the Department of Highways wouldn’t go for it be~ cause it would be too close to the intersection.” Mrs. Underhill said a “safety patrol” consisting of children might solve the problem. Board Chairman Geoffrey Pierpoint said the members had no authority on the matter re- garding crossing guards and did not favor school safety patrols. Mrs. Underhil-l said letters asking for applicants for the crossing guard job had been sent to every {house in the muni- cipality but there had been no replies. “We just can’t get a crossing guard,” Mrs. Underhill said. Mrs. C. E. Underhill and Mrs. Gordon Tetley were appealing to members of the public school board for some assistance or ad- vice. There’s only one reason why they haven’t got one. No one wants the job. That was the word last week from two representatives of the King City Home and School As- socia‘tion.
