WHITBY. Representative--JAMES HOLDEN Phone, House 15--Office 434 Education Board Asks Whitby Council For Grant F or Agriculture Deputation "Presents Situa- tion at Council Session-- Would Erect a Two-room Frame Building to House Agriculture Department --Council Refers Matter to Finance Committee a -- . (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, May 22.-~The request of the Board of Education for a grant to erect a two-room frame building to house the agricultural department of the Whithy High School was referred to the finance committee when a deputation from the board waited on the town council last night, The board's re. quest was outlined by Dy. H, Bas. som, chairman, and Dr, C. F. Me. Gillivray, secretary, while other members of the deputation includ. ing Mr, Joseph King and Mr. John Larkin, took part in the discus. sion whieh followed. The town council, although expressing itself sympathetic to the demands of edu- cation, was prone to look with a -- I J" eye upon the financial aspect of the board's demand. Dr. Bascom explained to the council that the high school in- spector had warned the board tnat unless proper provision be made for conducting the study of agri. culture, and farm mechanics, the government would cut off a grant of $1,700, which the school is now receiving. The chairman of the board considered that if proper at- tention were given to the course the ratio of county to town pupils would be increased with a resultant increase to the county grant. The estimated cost of the build. ing with equipment is $5,000 and the town would likely have to bear two-thirds of this, Dr, McGillivray elaborated upon the explanation put forth by Dr. Bascom and quoted figures to show the extent of grants received by the school from the government and county. Dr. McGillivray men- tioned that he would rather talk about the benefits already being conferred upon the children of this commrunity through the medium of the school than make this request for an additional grant from the council, The secretary of the board * THE OSHAWA DAILY "11MLES, 1 UEDDA . thought it would be poor business it the school should. fo forego the $1,700 annual grant simply be- cause it lacked proper quarters for the agricultural depart tr. Mcillivray stated that there was every possibility of these grants being continued to all secondary schools in the provimce. Deputy Reeve Underwood asked why the board had removed the old gymnasium which formerly stood on the north-east cormer of the high school grounds. Could it mot have been devoted to the agriculture class after the n gymnasium was completed, he Sueried. The deputation replied t the building had been con- demned as a fire trap and that at the time of its removal the board had thought that a class room in the basement of the high school would be suitable for farm mrech- anics and agriculture. The deputy reeve was not en- tirely satisfied and remarked that last year when the board proposed to erect the new wing to the hizn school the council had been in. formed that the yearly grant to the board would not be augmented, "Now," stated Mr. Underwood, "you come back to us this year and asked for $2,400 wore' to operate the schools." "You are including the public schools with those figures," re- plied Dr. McGillivray, 'of that amount but $500 was required for high school purposes." Members of the deputation at. tributed that to an error in esti- mates and Dr. MeGillivray further reminded the counel] that in 1927 the board had received some old grants which had been owing from previous years, Mr, Joseph King pointed out that the high school and the town would benefit from an increased attend. ance of county pupils and he be. lieved that if the farm mechanics and agriculture course were prop- erly conducted a number of addi.

Councillor Bow. man, seconded by Councillor Broughton, had put forth a mo- tion that the deputation's request be granted but upon request of His Worship this was withdrawn as other eouncillors suggested that further consideration he given.
