The brief, submitted by Gor- don McKendrick on behalf of the parent group, asked the Board M Education to set aside In adequate budget etch year to assist emotionally disturbed, perceptually handicapped child- ren, slow learner: and others, whom the parents felt were not receiving adequate attention. Mr. Tacon recognised the need for more special education stat. ing that it should be an inte- gral part of the educational sys- tem. He also pointed out that the Board was doing its utmost P obtain qualified help in this field but had received little res- ponse to its advertisements due to a short supply of qualified personnel. The cost of implementing the recommendation: contained in the brief was considered “In. tronomieal" by both the plrent group and the Board but it was generally agreed that improve- ment of present servicel In: most urgently needed. Saul Cowan, chairman of the Board, took exception. however, to the lack of recognition given to the Board’s present efforts in this field and drew attention to the Bonn“ recent consultation and public discussion with the heads of the Department of Psychological Servicea and Re. search. Considerable research had gone into the brief which reveal. ed a backlog of over 650 case referrals not yet looked into by the Board's Psychological Ser- vices and Research Department.

Trustee Isobel Walker asked if the Board could not have a regu- lar report from the Department of Psrehologieal Services so they could keep abreast of the aims. (Continued on page 3) Mr. Chuald also contended it was more hrgenie and safer. He said with man production the bags cost only three cents a piece and giving each household flee back a week would amount to only 15 cents.

The whole idea The panic that had gripped the residents of the Oakdale Heights area when it was learned the Ontario Housing Corporation was buying up leases in the area has subsided, .Diarmurd Fitzgerald, president of the Oakdale - Northwood Ratepayers Association told The Times. The Ontario Housing Corporation has taken up the leases on approximately 47 units in the Gulfcrest Court maisonette development located on Jane Street; just south of Giltspur Drive, from Gillan Corporation. The people in the units now have been given until July 16 to move out. 'The big objection I have is not what the Onatrio Housing Corporation is doing but how they are doing it. The OHC is moving people about wholesale. Everybody is going to resent them," Mr. Fitzgerald stated. Mr. Fitzgerald said it was a case of moving one set of residents out and moving another set in. "The ones they're moving out," he said, "are not making that much more than the ones coming in." “Rightly or wrongly," he continued, "the resid- ents feel their land will be depreciated." He also stat- ed that the homeowners in the area felt their schools would be overcrowded by the influx of subsidized - rental families moving in.

He explained that York Township wanted to annex Weston and Forest Hill to form a fifth city or borough in opposition to the four city plan recommended by Dr. Carl Goldenberg in his report.
