For Senior School TSA 2 Markham Plans Purchase l5-Acre Site; three; senior principals in the area should be involved in planning the senior school, but .no ap- pointment to the prinCipalship TSA 2 Markham's plans to build a senior public school to be ready for occupancy in Sep- 1968 have advanced step. lember another proved the proposal and has agreed to forward to the Ontario Municipal Board an application for purchase of a l5-acre site on the LaRose property. This site is on Concession 7 a short distance north of Highway 7. opposite the Markham Village boundary where there will be easy access to town sewage and water. The trustees have discussed plans for the school with archi- tects and an offer of purchase has been made to the owners of the property. Plans are to build a school of 31,710 square feet. including 16 home rooms with possible ex- pansion to 20. with special rooms for science. art, music. library. guidance. home econom- ics. industrial arts and health. There will be a general purpose room and additional space for offices. storage, lunch room and showers. At the last board meeting In- spector Maynard Hallman told trustees that the type of educa- tion to be offered in the school will have to be decided before architectural plans can proceed. "If the new school is built for a new type of education. a dif- ferent design will be required." he explained. “It will require movable walls to permit enlarg- ed areas.“ The inspector also stressed the necessity for a specially selected staff. "Not everyone is adapted to the new type of edu- cation and some may not wish to be involved in it." he said, suggesting that the person chos- en as principal be urged to study new education programs in other communities. “The staff'for this school should be enthusiastic. You should seek people interested in the new type of education.“ he advised York County Consultative Committee has ap- Trustees agreed the will be made until later. WATER STILL PROBLEM Although construction of the 8-room addition to Dickson's Hill School on Highway 48 is ule. the water supply is still a problem. it was reported. One hole drilled to a depth of 400 feet. proved to be dry. The board has sought advice from several experts and all agree there is water at the site but there is a band of quicksand about 30 feet down which makes boring difficult. Elson Miles. chairman of the property committee. reported he expects to hear soon from a firm which works with steel casing in deep construction. which may have a solution to the problem. "Water is proving costly." he stated. “but for a $500,000 school we must have it." Mr. Miles reports the school should be ready for occupancy by Sep- tember. BOARD BRIEFS TSA 2 will share with TSA 1 cost of secretarial services for Librarian Jack Nemchin. The late Richard Person of RR 2 Gormley. promoter of the Cachet County Club develop- ment at Don Mills Road and 17th Avenue. bequeathed the revenue from $20,000 to pay for education of four Markham Township children. Mr. Per- son’s will named the “board of education" to administer the bequest. but Markham Township does not have such a board. Trustees have learned that the court rules the township may assume the role of trustee and administer the fund. Exercises for the graduates of Parkview School in Union- ville were held June 28. Trustees regretted no pins had been approved for this year‘s class. but agreed to consider graduation pins for subsequent the board. years. Council Asks Meeting With TSA 2 Markham Township Council will ask TSA 2 for a meeting soon to discuss its request for approval of a 5990.000 deben- ture for a new senior public school. In a letter to council last week. the board said it was neg- otiating for a school site on Concession 7. one quarter mile north of Highway 7 on the Markham Village boundary line. Said Councillor Anthony Roâ€" man: “It seems strange that they'd be building on the sev-. enth line when the school is being built primarily to ac-l commodate Unionville childâ€" ren." He said also that there was property available there. Mr. Roman suggeted the joint meeting with TSA 2 and it was agreed to by the rest of council. tutti! At a recent meeting of TSA 2. it was pointed out that the board had investigated the pos- sibility of a campus-type devel- opment with Markham District High School Board in the Un- ionville area. but that the lat- ter wasn't contemplating any new high school construction within the next five years. The board said municipal water and sewers would be eas- ily accessible in their new site. and also land there was much less expensive than serviced , land at Unionville. 39c 39c 39c U 55 39c M 39c 39c 39c 39c Council also: Gave third and final reading to its rural area bylaw, which regulates the use of land in most of the township.

CFGM Radio Boosts Power To 50,000W The Board of Broadcast Gov- ernors have approved a power boost to 50,000 watts for radio station CFGM in Richmond Hill, day and night. It now broad- casts at 10,000 watts day and 2,000 watts night. Approval of the power in- crease and change in antenna site was linked with undertak- ings to ensure that CFGM would not try to move into the metro- politan market at the expense of service to its present suburban listeners. The station promised one item of York County news in each hourly newscast plus a mini- mum of five minutes a day of county news. It has also un- dertaken to increase the sta- tions public affairs program- ming to 71/2 hours a week with a minimum of two hours devoted to York County. It will also re- port once each quarter to the BBC on other public affairs programs aimed at rural and suburban audiences. The application had been op- posed by other stations on the ground there could be an in- vasion of the metropolitan mar- kets. The change now awaits feder- al government approval. Arm Nearly Severed Motorist ls Charged A motorist whose left arm was left hanging by a thread fol- lowing a two-car crash south of‘ Stouffville last June. has been charged by Markham Township Police with three counts under the Highway Traffic Act. Bruno Joanette, 21. of Union- ville. has been in Scarboro Hos- pital since the accident June 19, where doctors are still work- ing to save his arm. Joanette was the driver of a car, which was in collision with another automobile driven by William Brown, 21, of Stouff- ville, on Concession 9. near Highway 7. Joanette has been charged with careless driving, failing to .share one half of the road and. operating a motor vehicle with-g lout a licence. 39c 39c 39c 368 968 968 368 Hicks and Wayne Morison also singled earlier in the game. while Richard Burton homered.

A. Wall. While a lot was baled last week. there is almost none that isn‘t badly bleached at best. or very musty and mouldy at worst. The outlook for roughage feeding this winter is grim. Those who :had silo storage available are in little better shape as more than normal spoilage has been taking place in silos too. In Mr. Wall's opinion. chop- ping hay into a stack or pile is not worthwhile as losses both on the surface and inter- ior will be just as high as in bales. He emphasizes that this year‘s experience emphasizes the risk factor in harvesting by baler. which is more of a worry now than formerly because of the move to more specialized dairy farms. With hay basic to the whole farm income, a har- vesting system less dependent on dry weather and sunshine is worth thought. An obvious alternative is haylage. which isn't by any means foolproof but is more re- liable to some degree. Another alternative is to switch some of the hay acreage to a crop which stores more easily. such as corn or oat sil- age. There is no way to handle the livestock business other n Safety Devices Cut Farm Mishaps wanted medical bills.

It is called the 4-H Farm School and will be held for three days. . Members of this group from all parts of the county will be bussed to Huron Heights Sec: ondary School. where they will participate in well illustrated} talks and demonstrations given ’in the morning by staff mem- Ibers from the Ontario Depart- ;ment of Agriculture. Emphasis will be placed on beef and dairy cattle management and farm mechanics. In the afternoons the young people will visit farms which illustrate practical and up-to- date farming methods. This school is part of a re- vised 4-H program for York and is supported by the agri-I cultural committee of county council. YOU GET WITH on. A HEAT THAT'S CLEAN, A TRIAL wru.
