GROUND CRACKED Earth Tremors Shake House BLACKSTOCK (TC) | earth tremor, which left a crack) in the frozen ground a quarter) of an inch wide and about 25) yards long, occurred on the farm of Robert Jenkins, six miles east of here early Sunday morning. Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins and their six sons were awakened at about 2.30 a.m. by two small thumps, followed soon after- wards by a loud bang. Thinking the furnace had ex- ploded or the chimney had fal- len, the family rose and checked the interior and exterior of the house without finding anything. Nothing was out of place in the house but the family remained up for a considerable time. The bang was also heard by a Anjneighbour but was dismissed as) the sonic boom caused by an airplane passing overhead; Sunday morning when he went outside to do the chores, Mr. Jenkins found a crack in the frozen ground extending for 25 yards from the woodshed at the rear of the house to a gasoline tank. This crack was about a quarter of an inch wide. An- other smaller crack, about two yards long, extended off from) the larger one. Later in the day when the children went to a pond on the farm to skate, they found the smooth ice surface full of cracks. The Jenkins family farm is located on the boundary of Cart- wright and Manvers Townships about six miles east of Blackstock.

MOVIE SUCCESS West Side Story, which grossed more than $30,000,000 around the world, is rated plans} ORONO (TC) -- The new Clarke Township Area School Board held its first official meeting in the Orono School with the presence of the school inspector and a few ratepayers. Nominations were held for the position of Chairman of the Board. Lawrence Greenwood was successful in gaining the appointment, with Dr. Tag- gart later being appointed as vice-chairman. The chairman appointed mem- bers to two committees: Trus- tees Taggart and Wannan were appointed to Finance Committee while Trustees Robinson and Stephenson were appointed to the Transportation and Manage- ment Committee. Although a Planning Committee was not officially appointed it was. sug- gested that this committee com- prise the entire Board. In setting the salary rate for the board members a maximum rate of $30 a month plus 10 cents a mile, was set, Public school Inspector Holmes indi- cated that- most boards were setting the maximum rate, ADVICE SOUGHT Mrs, J. Ingraham, a teacher at No. 9 school, approached the board on the fact that she was becoming a baby sitter along with teaching duties, as parents were requesting that early grade students be kept in school until such time as they could be picked up at the school. The parents were objecting to. the young students having to cross Highway 115. Mrs. Ingraham asked direction of the board in the matter. Inspector Holmes suggested that the matter be referred to the management committee for study. Dr. R. J. Taggart stated that Mrs. Ingraham -- should carry out her duties only as a teacher and if this brought com- plaints they would be directed to the board by the parents. The chairman, however, suggested that the teacher go along with the parents at the present time and that in the meantime the and on arriving at a decision will notify Mrs. Ingraham. Mr. Greenwood then suggested) in policy decision that each member of the board act as a contact man for certain schools in the area, He said that this policy had been carried out by the old board and had been found to work satisfactorily. Each member would see that re- pairs were made and that sup- ply teachers were provided. Inspector Holmes intervened' and stated that such a system had weaknesses, Board mem- bers could come to feel that cer- tain schools were his concern only. He felt that all such com- munications should be channel- led through the secretary and he in turn would either take ac- tion on them or refer them to the proper committees. Inspector Holmes also stated further that the board should be concerned with policy only and should not become involved in detail, OCCASIONAL TEACHERS The new board accepted the suggestion with the effect that contact is to be made to the sec- retary, H. R. Best, for the sup- ply of occasional teachers or when other needs arise. The of- fice of the secretary will be set up in Mr. Best's home in Orono.

STUDY ICE COST An issue arose over the pur- chase of ice time at the Orono Rink for public skating for the Orono Public School students. The weekly cost has been $32 for four hours, R. Stephenson first stated that they would have to adopt an inter school schedule and was especially so in Orono, Wil- paid for the Orono children to go skating then they would have to let all schools have the same opportunity. Mr. Greenwood in- formed the board that some schools throughout the area were paying for ice time by having the students pay for the ice out of their own pockets. Dr. Taggart said he could see nothing wrong with the policy especially as it was a part of the physical education program of the school.
