Barrie are only partly In agreement with the comments of leading Ca nadian educational director given yesterday at the Canad ian Conference of Education currently being held in Mont real Dr Neville Scarfe Dean of Education at the University of British Columbia told the con ference ibut Canadian child son are not being educated ns effectively as they should be He added there is nothing wrong with Canadian education that better quality teachers will not put straight Jock MacLarcn chairman of the Barrie Public School Board defended Barries public school teaching stuffs by saying the qunliiy of our teachers has im proved considerably in recent years particularly since our inspector Angus McKay has been on the job MrMnanrcn indicated that in the past public schools every where had been plagued by serious teacher shortage lie said however that this short age is now almost nonexistent and pointed up the fact that the Barrie Public School Board re quired 14 tendiers prior to the start of the current school year We advertised and received 128 applications in return he said Our interviewing team was enabled to be most select ivo in their choice of suitable applicants for the postal BETTER CREDENTIALS Mr MacLaren said that tea chers in search of jobs can provide better credentialsv than heretofore and he asked when could we reach the optimum situation where we are entirely satisfied IIe oncluded by saying that In his opinion tea chars today are better more skilled than they were 20 30 and 40 years ago Dr Scarfe recognized as leading authority in educational matters in the country also said one of the major faults is that children are being taught to memorize and regur gitate facts when the emphasis should be on teaching them to think creatively He continued teaciiers free dom is restricted and they are not adequately trusted and not given sufficient scope to teach in ways they know to be better than the orthodox Dr Scarfe said that one rea son for this restricted freedom lies in the inadequate profess sional education they received They need as long and rigorous preparation as doctors urchi tects engineers and lawyers and this is just as true for those teaching kindergarten as grade 13 AllTL TRUE Bowman principal of Central Collegiate here admit ted that the problems clted by Dr Scarfo are true to some extent He said however one of our greatest problems is that each teacher must tench stud ents with wide range of abil ity Dr Scaries statements may be true of students head ing for university training but cant go along with his criti Unions Firms Learn To Live Side By Side By FORBES RHUDE Canadian Press Business Editor Edward Cushmsn vice president of American Motors Corporation says the companys progress sharing contract with the United Automobile Workers made inst fall is part of developing maturity in companyunion relations He told press conference and the Toronto Canadian Club these relations have passed through two phases and now are ready for third The first stage following un enthusiastic acceptance of un ions by management tended to be one of conflict and depend ence on power The second stage saw the two moving into utual accommodation and leaming to live witbone an other but still with depend ence on power and without much consideration of econom ics and the welfare of the busi ness Now said Mr Cusbman there is need for move into organized co operation rather than organizedconflict and he feels the current contractvls an advance in that direction It is essential he stated that both sides recognize that their relationship is permanent that each recognize the needs of the other as institutions and that they work out their dif ferences within that context TODAYS STOCK PRICES Compiled by Flynn DE Dunlap St

at so but he certainly can reason It would stimulate the doctorate as well cisni entirely when you consid er thatwo have students of widely varying ability Mr Bowman said that tea cher must slant the teaching to the median of the class This must vary from class to class he said The principal also pointed up the serious teacher shortage facing school boards at the sec ondary school level The pub lic school teacher supply is much better be said How ever at our level we have faced very serious shortage of good teachers for the past decade Such shortage is bound to influence the quality teachers who are available when they are needed Mr Bowman said that it would probably be another ten years before the shortage is caught up He pointed out that there is pressing demand for the 1962 63 term for 1200 teafliars at the secondary school level He es timated the source of supply of newly qualified teachers at something less than half this amount Mr Bowman said that he felt that Harris was particularly fortunate as to its size and lo cation Because of these fac tors we are in good position go secure teachers of high cali re Mrs Marita Paulin first year member of the Barrie Pub lic

getting down to questionable level at is and think any change should be made gradually Perhaps at 20 then some ob servatlons then gradually down farther towards in To go down by degrees would be solar plan Searfo was only partly right in his comments STANDARDS IMPROVED From my own personal know ledge and observations know that teaching methods and stan dards are improved she said Attainment of higher stan dard never hurts anyone she said and this applies to the teaching profession as well as any other Mrs Paulin interjected that she felt some of Dr Scarfas criticism could be directed at parents as wall as at teachers dont think all parents off ectivcly live up to their role she said Too many of them are inclined to place the entire load of teaching and develop ment on the teacher The board member said she agreed feathers should ba sis lowed wider scope in their me thods However she said where should the line be drawn We must have some standard or we would have ut ter chaos Mrs Paulin expressed the opinion that many of the prob lems outlined by Dr Scarfa were problems that rightfully belonged to the Department of Education In this connection die pointed to the need for the general standardization of text booksu As parent Mrs Paulin said that she was reasonably happy with the teaching standard of Barrie schools have my own pet peeves she said but this is strictly personal 1186 on Snow Banks Obstructed Vision Driving Charge Is Dismissed The increasingly high snow banks that line Barrie streets won an acquittal for Joseph Frank Ayotte in Magistrates Court
