The delegation, headed by President Nelson Charlebois of Navan, Ont., asked Provincial Treasurer Allan, acting pre- mier in the absence of Premier Frost who is on vacation, to help in the association's cam- paign to have the cost of edu- cation removed from local mu- nicipal property taxes. Conciliation Sought In Hydro Fight Seeking Grants All education costs should be assumed by the province "as a general obligation of all the cit- izens of the province, whether they own property or not." A resolution said Ontario's three-per-cent retail sales tax, effective Sept, 1, could be used exclusively as an 'education tax" so everyone would pay his fair share of education, based on the amount an individual spent. Another resolution urged the government to enact legislation making it ¢ ompulsory for all licensed motor vehicles to be adequately insured against pub- (lie liability for bodily, injury and property damage. A resolution to aid "snow- belt" municipalities asked for full subsidies to be paid mu- nicipalities on equipment re- quired for successful winter op- erations.

While 27 meetings during a nine-week period of negotiation have brought agreement on many of the 127 items on the bargaining agenda, the current deadlock on important issues has forced the commission to seek conciliation in an effort to reach a settlement as soon as possible, a Hydro spokesman said. C. B. C. Scott, assistant gen- eral manager of personnel, said the commission's based on an honest conviction that union demands. were not realistic in view of current eco- {nomic conditions. The Hydro union, represent- ing some 8,500 weekly-salaried {and hourly rated employees of ithe commission, wants a six- |per-cent increase for most of its members, as well as raises of five to 25 cents an hour for sev- eral guundred workers in con- Istruction departments. Improved health and pension plans are also sought. The commission offered "fewer than 100 of the construction workers increases, varying from one to five cents an hour, and refused to grant improved fringe benefits. Stan Little, head of the Na- tional Union of Public Service Employees (CLC), to which the OHEU belongs, said it would be unlikely that homes, hospitals and other essential services would be blacked out.

Winding as it does around the Northumberland Hills, much of the monotony of long straight stretches has been broken up and the scenery, generally, is far more attractive than is usual with such highways. By the time the 31-mile stretch of Highway 401 is completed between Port Hope and Brigh- ton, the cost, including over- passes and cloverleafs, will total $15,500,000 or $500,000 a mile. 160 members' names should ap- pear, along with a number of other officials. After much discussion, Trus- tee Drynan's motion to rescind the motion was squashed by a 5-4 vote. Immediately, Trustee Dry- nan made another motion stat- ing which names he thought should appear on the bronze plaque. During the discussion on the second motion, Chairman Ste- phen Saywell had to display considerable skill to keep the meeting in order. It almost de- veloped into a first-rate contro- versy. Trustee Margaret Shaw stated: "I feel Trustee Dry- nan's motion completely out of order 1 like his attitude 'never say die' but he is wast- Trustees Veto Rescind Move said: "I find Chairman Saywell said the eeting was becoming "com- pletely out of order'.

Mr. Saywell asked Trustee Drynan, "Do you have any idea of the cost of putting up a plaque containing all the names that you mentioned?" The chairman said that it was not a matter of personal opinion, but as a matter of procedure that he had disqualified the mo- tion. Trustee Dr. A. E. O'Neill wondered why anyone should want to get their name on a public building. Trustee Drynan interrupted Dr. O'Neill and was told, "Will you kindly keep quiet".

Determination Follows After Skiing Mishap VANCOUVER (CP) -- Three months ago, Tom Parker took a spill on one of the slopes of Grouse Mountain. When fellow members of the Grouse Moun- tain Ski Patrol came to the aid, {the 18-year-old youth was un- able to move a muscle below the shoulders. Tom was immediately 'taken to Vancouver General Hospital, where it was discovered he had broken and dislocated his sixth vertebra which in turn dam. aged his spinal cord. After com- pleting a four-hour operation, doctors credited the patrols knowledgeable handling with saving his life. A month later, the grade 12 senior matriculation student still had no movement or feel ing in the affected part of his body.

LJ 50 - pound fi Rocket Explodes CAPE CANAVERAL (AP)~-- An attempt to hurl an un- manned Project Mercury space capsule into an orbit about the earth failed today when the Atlas booster rocket exploded in flight about 30 seconds after launch. The 1%-ton capsule was pulled free by an escape mechanism and parachuted toward the At- lantic Ocean just off the cape. Mr. Saywell Pays Tribute To Monsignor . The Oshawa Board of Educa- tion met at their regular month- ly meeting Monday at the Ad- ministration building. The board did not convene until almost 9 p.m. as the members had been in attendance at a special ap- pointments committee meeting since 7 p.m. The meeting was mostly rou- ine.

An attempt was to have been made to recover it from orbit after it completed the 110- minute rund around the globe. The 77-foot Atlas with the capsule perched on its nose rose smoo from its pad at 11:15 a.m. EST and appeared to be flying a true course. But 30 seconds after lift-off the Atlas suddenly blew apart with a brilliant h that left a huge fog of fire and smoke hanging in the sky for several seconds. authorizing the land trade will be handled by the city. Trustee Margaret Shaw ques- tioned Trustee George Drynan on the various provisions to pro- tect the Board of Education. She finally asked if the proper- ty was large enough to build a school without buying additional property. Trustee Drynan skirt- ed the question, but Chairman Stephen Saywell assured Mrs. Shaw there would be enough space on the property to build a school. Chairman Stephen Saywell congratulated his fellow-trustee Rt. Rev. P. Coffey on his re- cent elevation to the post of "monsignor". Mr. Saywell pointed out that Monsignor Cof- fey had been a valued member of the Board of Education for many years. He wished him a long life "to hold high the honor of his Church". {of Oshawa, observing Interna) {tional Service Day, |meeting in Hotel GenosHa this week, were urged to take an ac- {tive interest in this phase of Ro- itary work. | The speaker was Vincent De- | Vita, a veteran member of the {Rotary Club of Toronto, who pointed out that the time is long since past when contributions of |money can further understand- ing between the people of Can- ada and other lands.
