Provincial taxes and Trustees of York Gaunty Ro- man Catholic School Board agreed at their regular meeting April 21 that they should find some way of communicating with the public on a broader basis than at present. The discussiOn follmved a report from Aurora Trustee John O‘Mahony on a meeting with parents in Our Lady of Grace Parish Hall in Aurora on April 15. In his area. said Mr. O‘Ma- hony the parents were particu- larly interested in board blans for a new school to be built in the vacinity of the Wimpey Subdivision north of the town, and in plans for a senior school. Thornhill Trustee June Mal-l lon observed that the public in‘ general lacks information about the schools and the board. “They think the trustees run the whole show. They want no 'frills'. they want ‘good Catholic teachers’, they want to know who their trustee is and why they do not see him more often." ‘ A questionnaire sent out to ‘a samplimg of parents brought responses from about 38 per- cent of those who received it. and most of those who replied, said Mrs. Mallon. were "pretty badly misinformed”. Loaal meetings. such as the one in Aurora could go a long way towards improving com- munications. observed Chair- man Eugene Jacobs._ Thornhill Trustee Dr. William LaCroix suggested that a book- let might be prepared. “It would be of great assistance in informing parents, also in hir- ing teachers and telling the ratepayers what we have been doing." ~. 7A1, Mrs. Mallory suggested var- ious ways, in addition to public meetings, in which the bpay} uv Since the various area boards were amalgamated in January. 1969, and the county board formed there have been many changes. observed Dr. LaCro'rx'. Richmond Hill Trusbee John LeClaire agreed. “The role of the trustee on this board dOes not bear any relatiOnship to that of the trustee 0n the small board. nor to the ivory tower of the Metro Board.

She observed that limiâ€" tations of money and staff ruled out any large scale program in this area. but a trustee or trus- tees might work with staff to prepare a report of board acti- vities to date. and newsletters might be distributed through the schools at regular intervals: Mrs. Mallon also suggested that the board consider engag- ing the services of a profes- sional public relations firm [or the purposa of preparing a general information booklet or newsletter. or both. She rejected a suggestion that principals might be in- volved. “We have put a tremen- dous burden on our principals in the last, year and a half. They are being pushed too far too. fast. with too many assignments. m e e tin g s. questionnaires, changes", Woodbridge Trustee Noreen Lee observed that there seemed to be many areas where the board could, with little cost and ‘ effort, make the public l more aware of what is go- ing on in the schools. She drew attention to a staff “report on excursions taken by lvarious classes in the board’s 18 schools over the past year. More than 133 trips were itemized. ranging from a trip to the Martyrs’ Shrine at Midland to the McLaughlin Planetarium at the Royal Ontario Museum and Black Creek Pioneer Vill- uuu age. Several classes had visited» the Centennial Science Centre. Christmas Wonderland. various conservatiOn areas in the vic1- nitv. as well as fire halls. police stations, public libraries ‘and local industries. Many “other excursions" were referred to. but not itemized. 1 The board was oVerlooking an excellent Opportunity for better public relations in not publicizing more of these. Mrs. Lee remarked.

The Wolf Cub section was added in 1916 and the Rov- er Scout program in 1917. Sea Scouts became a part of the movement in its early days. Lone Cub and Scout pragrams were formed to serve boys liv- ing in areas where it WAS not possible to organize packs or troops because of limited num- bers or long distances. present and future of our coun- try. Each section of the movement has its own promise and law, designed to be understood by each boy of every age group. All programs are designed to help the boys becom’e resource- ful and responsible members of the Community. by providing opportunities for their mental. physical, social and spiritual de- velopment. Basically. each boy is expect- ed to love and serve God, re-‘ spect the human dignity and rights of individuals and recog- nize the obligations of the in- dividual to develop and main- tain his potential to the best of his ability.‘ Wolf Cubs Designed for boys 8-10‘ the‘ Wolf Cub program provides ac- celerated development through crafts, games. singing, play act- ing, stories and camping and special interest activities en-i com-aged by star and badge wbrk schemes. 1Boy Scouts Boy Scout Troops provide bays 11-17 with Opportunities f0r membership in small friend- ship and interest groups known as patrols.

MARKHAM PAVING 884-1023 FOR FREE ESTIMATES CO. LTD. (Continued from Page 2) years ago," said Muriel. “David Shortill and I owned neurotic horses and we decided to school‘ them together, Friday nights, at Joker’s Hill. New-’ market. After we finished the schooling our conver; sation centred around the progress of the two horses. Then the talk would eventually get around to the need for a really good horse magazine for the horse people of Canada." . 1 n ,L __.-.r1- “‘61:” Rambling Around pwwc ............ Miss Lennox didn‘t think that people realiz the extent of the horse industry and the high st: - ure of the Canadian horse. There are over 500,0(3 horses in Canada and the industry is growing. It. seemed to Muriel and David that the time was ripe for such a magazine. Along with Co-publisher Esther Peachey and the rest of the staff, they took on the job of informing horse owners everywhere in the world. The result was the glossy, good-looks ing “Corinthian.” They couldn’t have found a better name than “The Corinthian“. It means “the best”. The name is used to describe a class of horses. When an owner talks about his Corinthian horse he is talking about a hunter or a good jumper. the kind of horse that the Master of the Hunt would ride or one which he would offer to a guest. October 1968 found “The Corinthian’s" complete staff in Mexico for the Olympics. gathering news and pictures and experiencing all the pains and aches that go along with a new publishing venture. “We knew absolutely nothing about publishing] when we started.” said the sparkling young promotor of the Corinthian. “We did everything that had to be done ourselves. but we had the help and encour- agement of many peeple who aided in selling adver- tising and subscriptions for us. They also wrote features. contributed news and took pictures. We couldn’t have done it without them.” -1r Police Crime Roundup 3 Richmond Hill Teenagers To Be Summonsed In Stolen Auto Case Summonses for possession of a stolen automobile and goods stolen from Yonge Street ser- vice stations are being issued against three Richmond Hill teenagers. The charges came at 4:50 am‘ May 9 when Markham Township Police happened to stop \and check two vehicles stopped on 17th Avenue, east of Don Mills Road. “We were also fortunate in being able to ride on the crest of a wave of very significant happen- ings in the horse world over the past two years. We reported on the rising stature of the Canadian horse to a very interested public. Canadian horses have won nearly every equestrian event going in the past two years. Good examples are winners like Vice-Regal, Majestic Prince and Nijinski.” Miss Lennox predicts that in the next 10 years, Canada will become one of the leaders in the horse sport. - .4 t 0,, A12“-_L-.1 LA - 011v; L The content of the magazine is directed to a specific audience but that audience is composed of readers in the horse world who go about things differently. It also has western coverage. It has been quite a remarkable undertaking to weld so much disjointed information into one attractice package. The last two years have been exciting for the young co-publishers and their co-workers and the future looks bright. Good luck to them!
