This was the first such charge laid by town police under the Juvenile Delinquents Act as police continue their efforts against the rising tide of teen- age drug use, according to Dep- uty-Chief Joseph Raimey. Charges of sniffing an in- toxicating solvent were‘ laid against a 14-year-old and a 12- year-old by Richmond Hill Police last week. The two juvenile offenders were caught in the act behind a building. Vaughan Township Police re- port that incidents of vandelism are continuing in the Richvale area. The Richvale Library had some windows broken March 28, but police found everything ap- parently in order inside the building. Also on March 28 someone removed the ceiling tiles from the Concord Post Office lobby.

In Thornhill March 27 two "mini" motorcycles valued at $400 were stolen from a garage at the home of Irwin Valliant of 63 Almond Avenue. Mark- ham Township Police say the small vehicles have not been recovered as yet. and that they may have been stolen the night of March 26 when some noise was reported in the vicinity.

Early Birds 7.40 p.m. the A system of master teachers .designed to assist and develop Ibeginning teachers accounts fori |$267,000 of the budget, and| '$70,000, (about $30 per staff member) has been designated for professional development of teaching, administrative and custodial staff. This includes the cost of almost 100 in-service training courses for teachers, fees for attendance at approved courses offered by universities, ietc. Teaching aids, now available throughout the county, include audio-visual services at a cost 1015 $239,839. Mr. Chapman ex- plained that $67,000 of this is for new equipment in schools â€" projectors, television equip- ‘ment, tape recorders, film strip viewers, etc. â€"- also $36,000 for repairs and servicing of equip- ment already in the schools, and $45,000 for the building up of a film library. A courier system operating from the Audio-Visual Centre in Maple serves all schools in the coun- ty. The two major concerns in compiling the budget, said Mr. MacKay, were to maintain a level of education equal to any available in the province, and at the same time to make sure the taxpayers of the county are getting full value for their school tax dollars. The 1970 budget includes ap- proximately $40,000 for four new kindergarten classes in areas where there were no kindergartens prior to Sep- tember, 1969 and $20000 ad- ditional to provide Oral French for 900 children who did not previously receive this. The board’s fleet of 220 bus- es carries 18,000 students over 10,000 miles twice a day â€" the equivalent of moving almost every resident of Richmond Hill twice a day. The budget al- lows $1,486,727 for transporta- tion. Also in the area of “equal- ity" there is a $96,000 allow- ance for field trips ($2.18 per student). and $374,000 ($8.50 per student) for library books and supplies to upgrade school libraries in some areas where these services were inadequate. The budget includes $170000 for psychological services and $99,000 for attendance and guidance counselling services which are now available to all schools in the county. u...) 54wvul The cost per pupii for these students, explained Education Director Sam Chapman, is ap- proximately double that for regular elementag'y students. When the 21 area boards and three retarded children’s auth- orities were combined in Jan- uary 1969 to form the county board, some services were av- ailable in some areas and not in others, Mr. MacKay pointed out. Although the board has not yet arrived at an agreement on teacher salaries for the year 1970-71, the budget allows $22,- 448,426 â€" 56 percent of the total for instructional costs compared with $19,832,796 in the 1969 budget. Anticipated, pay increases will account for about $2 million of this. It also provides $160,000 for the operation of ten special ed- ucation classes in the elemen- tary grades. . 3:; Costs are even higher for stu- dents in classes for perceptually handicapped and one such Cla'SS provided this year will cost $12,000 for salaries alone. “A large percentage of the budget is virtually inflexible,” explained Mr. MacKay. A matter of major concern to the board is the cost of debt 'charges from previous years. “Debt charges account for 12 percent of the total budget and are up 16 per- cent this year as a result of new debenture payments Board Approves $34.8 Miilion Budget For York County Schools At‘a special meeting on Board of Education approved for education in York County of $4.7 million over last year At‘a special meeting on Monday, York County Board of Education approved a $34.8 million budget for education in York County in 1970 â€" an increase of $4.7 million over last year’s budget. Chairman John MacKay commented that num- erous meetings of staff and trustees have taken place in the past three months in an attempt to Whittle the budget to a minimum that would provide equality of education for all of the pupils of the county. The board, he said, serves 44,000 students and employs 2,000 teachers. An increase of five percent in student enrolment in the past year accounts for $1.3 million of the added cost of operation. 50 Number - NEWMARKET -â€" Dr. Jim rfilghbSESezzoo’ooo to the Denison of Mount Albert Debt charges this year warned that the use of drugs in total $4,324,300.
