This matter is of vital concern to all parents. espe- cially those with students in Grade 13, whose entry into UniVersity is dependent on their satisfactory completion of this grade. From information available in the press, it has become obvious that the present situ- ation is the result of long neglect of teacher's grievan- ces. Since salaries appear to be only one of eight outstand- ing items to be resolved, and since negotiations have been carried on for approximately six months, it is obvious that the present negotiating com- mittee should resign en masse and be replaced by people who have some flexi- bility. Two letters received by York County Ontario Second- ary School Teachers Federa- tion, and the other directly to the board. graphically illu- strate what two concerned parents from different parts of the region think about the current secondary school teachers’ strike in York. COLLECTIVE DAMAGE I, therefore. as a concerned parent request their immedi- ate resignation and replace- ment. The Board must ap- point a negotiating commit- tee composed of those mem- The first letter was from Mrs. Connie Matthews, of Aurora, who asked for the resignation of the board's negotiating committee. The second was from Mrs. D. Burger, RR 3, King City. who felt the teachers had lost sight of their original goal in the long, drawn out battle between the two parties. Following are the letters: Madam Chairman and Trusteesâ€" bers of the Board willing to show flexibility in what ap- pears to be very reasonable requests by the teachers. I cannot over-emphasize the damage that you collec- tively, as a Board of Educa- tion, are inflicting on my son‘s future by this interrup- tion of his Grade 13 studies. Yours truly, CONNIE MATTHEWS, Maybe the fact that I was a teacher once myself and come from a long line of teachers might serve to add weight to my argument.

But it seems to me that one. possi- bly the most important issue has got lost in the general atmosphere of attack and counterattack, intolerance and bitterness. For people to earn rights they have to fulfill obliga- tions. For citizens to earn the privileges a country’s laws provide them with, they have to fulfill the obligations of good and responsible citizens. To recognize the validity of these concepts and their in- evitable interrelationship, to consider one's own role in society and the responsibili- ties this carries with it is ethics. Professionals are supposed. through their greater level of education to have achieved a higher standard of ethics and sense of responsibility towards their fellow men than uneducated people. If that has not been achieved their education has sadly failed in its intent. The peo- ple who achieved the educa- tion may not call themselves professionals. Iamsorrytosaylfeel that ethics, which to profes- sionals. as you consider your- selves (very rightly so, I would say) are being ignored and forgotten completely. During the past few weeks council’s com- mittee has been considering the accommoda- tion in the present offices for increased staff to provide for effective administration of the municipal activities. A report to council from its department heads pointed out that “there are influencing factors of various degrees that reflect the pos- sibilityrof growth, in the Town of Vaughan. “The type, the place and the amount of growth is not clearly defined and varying opin- ions reflect that increased municipal adminis- trationiwill be required in the future. Vaughan Town is looking forward to the day when it will experience “growing painsâ€. With this in mind town council Monday afternoon of last week decided to hire Archi- tect William Whitney of Woodbridge to pre- pare a preliminary design for an extension or enlargement of the existing municipal building in Maple. Salary fee will be decided before the contract is signed. The type of study and the extent of the research required will be accelerated only “if and when the long term needs dictates that construction is imminent.†Vaughan Plans Future Extension Municipal Building As Town Graws Aurora It is ethics and mental strength that keeps us going. Next to parents' influence the teachers’ influence is the most important and some- times deciding factor as to how this youth is going to develop. For many young people teachers are their only guideline because their parents fail them totally. What are these young people going to do when even their teachers. sometimes the only other constant factor in their lives. walk out on them? I am afraid your actions re- cently are going to forever deprive you now of their re- spect. In their eyes you are now just the same as every- one else. Give up when the going gets rough. PINK LISTING WRONG Surely education is also supposed to give us the capa- city to approach problems reasonably and thoughtfully. If there was defiance, bore- dom and non-co-operation from parents and students before. you are hereby for- feiting the right to complain about these things perman~ ently. But this is no ordinary la- bor dispute. Teachers are not ordinary people. If they were, they would not be teachers. It is a demanding and ex- hausting profession, often de- pressingly frustrating, some- times unusually rewarding. It often requires us to be just a little better than the others. However, how many scien- tists work towards a goal and never achieve it during their lifetime? Does not a spark here and there give them the incentive to keep trying? my husband and I. are truly interested parents and our sons are brought up with an understanding of the com- plexity. the mental and phys- ical demands made on teach- ers and their rights to human fallibility, We have always backed up the teachers rather than sided against them with our sons. Pink listing a school board, too, is an infringement on the human rights of others: Teachers. I feel. are pro- fessionals, not assembly-line workers. but if they behave like assembly-line workers they can not possibly be regarded as professionals. A professional is an educated man, in the widest possible meaning. and an educated man is a thinking man, a Those teachers who might be willing to fill the posts you voluntarily vacated. Parents: who worry about what this is going to do to their children, both its shortâ€" term effect on their faith. ambition, conscientiousness and moral and ethical devel- opment. And lastly. but possibly most importantly. the stud- ents themselves, like my two sons, who have performed well and with devotion. who respect teachers and miracle of miracles these days, have always truly enjoyed going to school. BLACKMAIL? Would blackmail be a prop- er description and if so, is this ethical? The group was formed as a result of the ministers all sharing a mutual interest in music, but not having the time to play in a group out- side of their vocation. Apart from communicat- ing the message of love through jazz or folk medium, they also aim to “knock down past images of ministers.†(Continued from Page 2) entering the Ministry, lives the farthest from Burlington, the central location where “The Lost and Found Department†has chosen to hold reg- ular practises.

The phases are: Provision of immediate space which can be accommodated by the re-allocation of office space with the sharing of existing space and facilities for a short interval of time. It points out also that additional admin- istrative staff will be required to provide for the “increasing demands from expanded pop- ulation and further industrial development.†The second phase will become more clearly identified as time lapses “and this can be attained through temporary buildings at the rear of the existing municipal building.†sideration and it is apparent that this will be more clearly defined.†In The Spotlight mmmmmmuum 1umummmmmmmmulmummmummlmuumuumuuuuuua: moral and ethical man This month I went to the interview night at the King Secondary School. This has always been our practice. We enjoy meeting the teachers even if their (my sons') scholastic records have al- ways been very satisfactory. This time I went to seek the teachers' understanding, in- terpretation and possibly ad- vice on a difficult-toâ€"explain slump in my older son's per- formance. I asked one of the teachers if he had asked my son for a reason for not handing in a given assignment. His only off-hand answer was, “One should not have to ask a grade 12 student, why". And why not, if that student had always been a good, consci- entious and pleasant student? Maybe we should tell you, all of you, “One should not have to ask a teacher why he is walking out".

The purpose of the By-law is to improve the design specifications of the play areas which are required in mul- tiple family residential areas. The changes are proposed in order to enable increased design flexibility. The existing by- law requires a chain link fence to enclose the area, this is changed by clause (a) which will permit a variety of materials to be used in the construction of required fence sur- rounding the play area. It has been found that it is not always pos- sible to design a functional block with the play space “accessible to the building without the necessity of crossing a parking lot or driveway†and “in one location†as required by the existing by-law and these require- ments are deleted. Finally, the play space areas will be permitted “in the side yardâ€, so that they can be located “in the rear yard or in the side yard, or in the case of a corner lot, in the rear yard or in the side yard not adjacent to the streetâ€.
