In a letter to the council Gordon G. Cushing istant deputy Minister in the federal Department of Labor, pointed out that either an employer or a handicapped. per- son himself may apply for work at a lower than stipulated dollar rate. Mr, Cushing suggested that if handicapped workers were available at less per hour than other workers it might be easier for them to be hired. One spokesman at last night's meeting suggested a government subsidy to make up the difference, pointing out the handicapped worker still has to live on what he earns. : Keith Ross, secretary treasurer of the Labor Council, suggested a quota system whereby the government would be forced to hire a certain number of handicapped per- sons in ratio to able-bodied workers. A motion to send a' letter of protest on what was called "discriminatory wage offers' was directed to the Council's Fair Employment Practices Committee for fur- ther study. Decision On PETERBOROUGH -- Public house licences for a proposed Oshawa motor hotel were oppos- ed here yesterday at a Liquor Li Board meeting by Osh- awa's Board of Education. E. G. MeNeely, city solicitor, on behalf of the school board, opposeed the granting of li- cences (men only, and women with escorts or alone) to the proposed hotel at 284 Simcoe st. 8. -- across the street from Central Collegiate Institute. Owners of the hotel, .H. M. Cranfield, Oshawa and George Coling, Brighton, were repre- sented by city lawyer R. D. Humphreys. The Liquor Licence Board re- served decision. Harrison Murphy, OCCI prin- cipal, appearing for the school board, said although he was concerned about the possible day-time problem, he was more |concerned about the effect the |beverage room facilities would! have on night classes. The average age of persor attending night classes, he said was above the legal drinking. |\Medicare Scheme Blasted By Ross | Operation of a _ semi-Medi-|be subsidized, That is, those on i imi care scheme in Ontario by pri-| welfare, the needy and per- Pago get Loa ggg vate insurance companies will/haps pensioners.) | school activities such as dances mean these companies will) - "Dr. Dymond has brought| about two each month, which! reap rewards for contributions|this forward even despite num-|are attended by former. pupils| to political parties, Keith Ross|erous alternative propo: ls and| who are of the legal age to| said last night. much opposition from many] drink. | "Making a profit out of the|groups in Ontario -- especially Mr. Murphy also said the ages| illnesses of people is an abe pnirch groups,"' said Mr. Ed-| of those attending Grades 12 and lute disgrace,"" Mr. Ross, sec-| wards. 13, numbering about 190, were retary - treasurer of the Osh-|.

' He said the board's. objection was based on the fear that stu- dents under the legal drinking age would use the facilities. He said this is against the law and that the hotel could lose its li- cence if it did not comply with the law. Last year the hotel applied for licences to serve liquor with meals and a cocktail lounge. RAPS SPLITTING Mr. McNeely said the hotel should also have applied last year for the public house li- cences and objected to the hotel splitting its application. "The Liquor Control Act im- poses on an applicant a high obligation of frankness," said Mr. MeNeely. "I think there is no place for the operation of tactics with in the Act." Mr. Humphreys said when Mr. Cranfield and Mr. Coling applied for the dining room and lounge licences last year they mistakenly , thought the public house licences were included. Mr. McNeely said the school board did not oppose the licence applications last year. Other applications before the licence board from the Oshawa area included: Carousel Inn (hotel), Oshawa; Carousel Inn (hotel), Ajax; Oshawa Yacht Club, Oshawa; Frenchman's Bay Yacht Club, Pickering Township; and Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 43, Oshawa.

June 15 at 8.30 p.m. Although computers are an admitted help to school admin- istration Oshawa _ secondary school principals are not con- vinced electronic machines will relieve them of lengthy time- table chores. Education Minister William Davis told the legislature this week the Ontario College of Education's department of re- search will begin experimental runs with school time - table data next month. Angus Dixon, principal of O'Neill Collegiate, said "there's no doubt that computers could be of great use in the drill work or scheduling time-tables but I don't think they could undertake the entire task: "The final polishing and re- vision would have to be left to the principals. "A finished time-table is a masterpiece," he said. "An awful lot of work goes into it.

"I am sure, though, that a computer could take a great deal of the more menial work of scheduling off the shoulders of the clerical staff." G. L, Roberts, principal of R. S$. McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Institut said; "They have not worked out a time- table by computer for a compo- site school ... and I doubt if they ever will.' It would take as much work to program a computer as it does now to draw up the time- table by hand, he said, "They have done some expert- ments for simple academie courses but they are nowhere near general application,' said Mr. Roberts He said student report cards a A.

He said there are just too many variables to be consider- ed for a machine to be any fast- er than a 'manual' calculation, The organization of the school, staffing, allocation of subjects, etc,, is the main task of a prin- cipal, he said, while the me- chanical plotting of time-tables to avoid conflicts, though ted- ious, can be done in four or five days, He said school records may be handled more easily by com- puters however.
