2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, September 17, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN "FIGHTING GEORGE" FIGHTS BACK -- CHAPT. 3 Dear Mr. Gearin: If you propose to condemn the entire Board of Educa- tion for 'bad planning, indecision, needless waste" and inform the electorate that the Board is "extravagant, wasteful", the least the Board and electorate can expect from you is that your facts be reasonably correct, In your column you stated: "Here's what the City Council minutes show: September 9, 1959 -- the Board asked City Council for a bylaw to issue debentures for $160,000 for the Oshawa Boule- yard North PS (now known as the Hillsdale PS) for six class- rooms, plus a kindergarten and playroom. November 6, 1059 -- the Board came back and asked council for a bylaw to issue debentures for $185,000 for the same school, but for 10 rooms instead of eight." These statements are completely false. There is no reference to Oshawa Boulevard North (Hills- dale Heights) School in the City Council minutes of September 9, 1959, or any other September minutes. There was. never any request to City Council for a by- law to issue debentures for $160,000. There was never any letter to the Council respecting a six-classroom kindergarten-playroom school. Nothing relating to this school was dealt with on 6 No- vember 1959. No mention of ten rooms appears in any Coun- cil minute respecting this school. Further in your column you refer to a Council meet- ing on 16 April 1962 when, you stated, the Board asked the City to issue debentures for $300,000. Not that it matters except to show your carelessness, but this meeting occurred on 2 April 1962. Respecting your charges that the Board has refused copies of its minutes, or delayed sending them, the Board re- cords show as follows: The Labor Council request was dated 13 June 1962. The next Board minutes (25 June) contain the following: "Moved by Trustee E. A. Bassett and G. K. Drynan that the letter from the Oshawa and District Labor Council be re- ceived and that copies of the minutés of the Board meetings be forwarded to the Council." The Chamber of Commerce request was received 3 August 1962. Although no Board meeting intervened, the matter was raised by me'at a special Building and Planning meeting and the members present undertook to authorize the forwarding of Board minutes until a full Board could con- sider the matter. Accordingly a letter dated 16 August was forwarded to the Chamber of Commerce, together with copies of the Board minutes for June and July 1962. No request has ever been receiyed from your news- paper or any other for copies of the Board minutes. Your figures with respect to the architect's fees on the grading portion of the R, 8. McLaughlin School are com- pletely wrong. These are only a few of the fantastic errors in your column. The Board's Regulations and Bylaws outline the duties of the Publie Relations Committee, of which I am Chairman, as including the following. . . receive general inquiries as to Board business and.to prepare general inquiries as to Board business and to prepare answers and reports thereto." I do not know of any person in Oshawa in more urgent need of the services of the Public Relations Committee than you. If you ever make any inquiries I will be glad to see they are answered accurately. Yours very truly, George Drynan.

Mr. Drynan, with dogged determination, continues to ignore the full record, presents the record piecemeal instead of whole-hog. It is significant that he no longer signs these letters with the title, "Chairman, the public relations committee, the Board of Education', which omission needs no elaboration. 'The Board never requested $165,000 from the City to build this school, as he states, but Mr. Drynan is misleading on this point -- he fails to mention that the Board informed the Ontario Department of Education that the estimated cost of the school would be $160,000, which point is indelibly writ- ten on the official record both at City Hall and the Board's administration buildj Is Mr. Drynay categoricatiy-denying that the Board re- quested $185,000 from the City to build and equip this school (then known as the Oshawa Boulevard north PS) in 1959? If he is, he is beating a dead horse -- it is well and fine for Mr. Drynan to attempt smoke screens, to becloud the real issues with technical trivalities, but the official record will not be denied, City Council's minutes for October 5, 1959 (on page 188) show that the Board wrote to Council and asked for a total of $625,000 for the 1960 Public School Building program for the construction and equipping of the following projects: 1--Senlor Public School -- 15 rooms -- Wilson road south. 2--An eight-room school on Oshawa Boulevard north (now the controversial Hillsdale PS and tentatively due to open in late November although its planning was started in 1959). 3~--A two-room addition to the Cedardale PS. The Board's letter, dated September 29, 1959; read: "Building to commence as early in 1960 as practical' and closes with this important sentence: 'Tentative approval has been received from the Ontario Department of Educa- tion, copies of which are attached", Has Mr, Drynan ever read the above letter, or copies of the department's tentative approval certificates attached, all of which are on file at City Hall? They illustrate slipshod financial methods, confusion, etc. It is little wonder they caused consternation at City Hall -- the Board, with customary disregard for financial matters, had asked the City for $625,000, but the attached certificates from Queen's showed that the Board had tentative- ly estimated the total cost at $500,000, which sum was made up as follows: 1 -- Wilson road PS -- $300,000 2 -- Oshawa Boulevard PS -- $160,000 3 -- Cedardale PS -- $40,000 NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT The City wanted to know why? This explains how the $160,000 figure was bandied around City Hall -- the Board had given it to the department. Would Mr, Drynan explain how the department got the $160,000 figure (on the certificate dated July 13, 1959, and received by the Board July 21, 19597) Council's finance committee requested a breakdown of the $625,000 total and received a second letier from the Board dated October 19, 1959, which read, in part, as follows: "With further reference to our application of September 29th, 1959, for the issuing of debentures for the Public School Building Program for 1960, "The estimated costs of the three projects is $625,000 item- ized per school as follows: "1 -- Senior Public School (Wilson road) -- $390,000 (up $90,000 in 20 days "2 -- Oshav2 Boulevard PS -- $185,000 (up $25,000) "3 -- Cedardale addition -- $50,000 (up $10,000)" COOLER AIR MOVING IN FROM WEST WEATHER FORECAST prvince cool temperatures with) Cool Tonight, Sunny Tuesday Lake Huron regions, Windsor, London: Cloudy with showers and thundershowers ending this Official forecasts issued by|shower activity over southern the Toronto public weather of-|sections.

Is it OK to refreeze meet, fish and similar foods that have been kept in deep freeze? A. No. The tawing: and refreez- ing of meat affects both flavour and texture. In addition, harm- ful organisms and the poisons they produce con develop after thawing. Such organisms and the products of their growth are nullfied by thorough cooking soon after thawing. However, if codxing is delayed for a pro- longed period, some type of food poisoning could result, es- pecially after a second freeze- thew cycle, Development of or- ganisms and their toxic products in prepared foods is an even greater possibility and under no circumstaonces should such foods be frozen, thawed, and re- frozen. z is P y our ible prices, 360 KING west | PHONE 1723-2265 | @ Don Ellison @ Gerry Osborne @ Ralph Schofield @ Reg Aker 28 KING ST, EAST @ AMPLE FREE PARKING @ < OPEN EVERY EVENING TILL 9 P.M. @ FREE DELIVERY e money can buy.
