Arrell, vice-chairman, said tem- porary approval '"'should give next year's city council ample time to decide if they want to expropriate ties covered by the bylaw which they are not able to acquire by purchase." The reason for the temporary approval was cited by Mr. Arrell: acquiring these properties is no doubt a worthy one I do not think the city should be able to tie up these properties indef- itely unless the owners are will- ing to sell to the city at the latter's price.

Lee (incumbent) gave a review of the Education pic- ture for the past 12 months and also pointed out that the anticipated spending. figure for the next year will be more than $351,000,000. She said that more than 10,000 classrooms and in- structional rooms had been com- this ridiculous spending. Other school boards can build class rooms for as much as $10,000 less than the Oshawa Board. Why is this? I feel strong about the poor attendance records of some trustees. Remember 43 cents out of every tax dollar is spent on education." Fred R. Britten said that he had served on the Board of Education in 1958, 1959 and 1960 "IT gave of myself all that I could," he said, 'I have watch- ed our board. They have at times displayed too much open bickering, displays of petty per- sonalities and petty angument," he said. Mr. Britten added: "There is no room on an elected board for clashes of personal- ity." William T. Werry congratu- lated the Lake Vista Ratepayers for their 'keen interest" in civic affairs. I have heard that the ratepayers are being used to elect someone to council," he said. "I don't think ratepayers should back any candidate.

Ald. Gordon Attersley agreed money is still the big problem. "The Porter pool wasn't bad but the rest were all in the $250,000 to $300,000 class." Council voted late last month to build a pool with the $186,000 centennial grant money. The city fathers threw out the cen- tennial committee's recommen- dation --a grandstand. Two weeks ago, council agreed to Mayor Lyman Gif- ford's suggestion of a pool tour to see what can be built today, jand for how much money. | Besides the Deer Park school pool in Toronto, those on the Saturday safari had a look at the W. A. Porter, Cedarbrae and Midland Collegiates, all in Scarborough. "If we are going to build any- thing like what we saw, we are not going to do it for the grant money," Ald. Pilkey said. 'The onés we saw would be a credit to the city but we don't have enough money. "Council's. problem now is to find that money, There are several alternatives: among them the Civie Auditorium group's offer to get the rest on new pledges, the possibility of another Boys' Club being built here and the city financing the difference."

He said he would offer no promises but would do his best to see that the taxpayers got good value for their money.
