Questioned closely by Mr. Redelmeier, he readily admitted that the three proposals made in and thus these people will be the first to benefit from the new plan. The water heaters which are built to hydro speciâ€" fications have a guaranteed life of 10 years. Even though the customer will own the heater after eight years the local hydro will still service the unit free of charge. In the event the unit fails and has to be replaced before the 10 year guarantee expires. rental charges on the new unit will not be reinstated until the end of the guarantee period of the original installation. This way the customer is assured of two years free of rental charges. Individual and group tests will also be administered to children for purposes of diag- nostic and remedial work, determining intelligence lev- els and information on per- sonal and social adjustment. These tests will be more spe- cific than those in the group testing program and in the past have been used for spe- cial class placement and for planning specific remedial The team is also planning and will assist in system-wide testing programs.
