Board's Romance Burns Brightly; Shooter Hired The Separate School Board' hot and cold romance with a clinical psychologist burned brighter last night as trustees agreed to hire Richard Shooter on a part-time basis for the fall term at a considerably reduced rate of pay. The Toronto psychologist, now on the staff of St, Michael's Hospital, was retained by the board at $7.50 per hour for 16 hours per week. He will begin duties Sept. 1. A storm erupted in early spring when Mr, Shooter was hired at $100 a day by Supervis- ing Principal Sister Agnes Teresa, to investigate the need for a psychologist, unknown to the board. The board dismissed Mr. Shooter after one day when it learned of the survey. Trustees had previously agreed on the need of a full-time psychologist at an annual salary of not more reconsidered, after a plea by Sister Teresa that Dr. Shooter, with many years of experience, might be of more value to the board, part-time, at a higher rate of pay, than a full- time psychologist just out of college. She said the starting salary for a psychologist is $7000 and his lack of experience might not make him any more valu- able than some of the sisters. Mr. Shooter, she added, was a "personable man who would not upset the system" and there was no question of his experi- ence. Sister said the psychologist is necessary to guide students and establish an efficient system for dealing with backward cases. His duties will include, con- ducting and evaluating student tests, consulting with parents and advising on treatment when required, Trustee Dr. George Sciuk said it is estimated 10 per cent of the pupil population needs the services of a psychologist. 'CONGRATULATIONS' "You were successful in get- ting his rate down. Congratula- tions,"' said Finance Committee Chairman Michael Rudka to Dr. Sciuk. Trustee Jack Lawrence said the board had advertised and ctuldn't get a suitable full-time psychologist with the money budgeted. The psychologist will hold seminars with teachers to in- struct them how to spot. and deal with students having men- tal and emotional troubles. By helping the emotionally disturbed and academically re- tarded, the board felt a psychol- ogist will help students and thus a more efficient education sys- tem will be developed. In the past the board has referred problem students to the mental health team at the Osh- awa Clinic, but felt it was nec- essary to bring treatment soon- er by providing their own psychologist. Donna McLaughlin, 19, of Nestleton and Maria Battag- lini, 18, of Warkworth, were chosen as the dairy prin- cesses of Durham and Northumberland Counties, respectively, at the New- castle Ar ean a Thursday night.

J. Crompton, was rejected last night by the Sep- arate School Board. While endorsing the plan in inciple, the trustees balked at ir. Crompton's suggestion that in cases of identical low tenders city council would decide on the winner. Trustee Michael Rudka, in spearheading the attack on this provision said, don't think this is such a good idea. Other things 'being equal we might prefer another con- tractor." He said with fuel oil for all city buildings, being such a sizeable amount of business, he'd prefer seeing it spread around as much as possible.

The two-year con- tract gave "an estimated. 56- cent package', seniority rights and recognition of grievance procedures -- among others.

A well-worn book at city hall, in which are recorded the first \bylaws of the village after it was incorporated in 1850, has many references to inns, tav- 13\erns and houses of entertain-| ment. In 1864 the many bylaws were |consolidated and this consoli- |dated bylaw: | --limited the number of tav- jerns to five; | --set the inn or tavern licence lat $50 and the shop or store licence at $95; --prohibited the sale or gift of liquor to a person in a "state of intoxication' or to a person under the age of 18 years; --set closing hours at 11 p.m. | weekdays and 7 p.m. Saturdays; |NO GAMBLING | ----prohibited gambling with dice or cards, quarrelling, fight- ing, profane swearing and dis- loyal songs or tales in taverns; --and required a person to have a house with 12 rooms, six of which had to be bedrooms for public accommodation with "good locks and bolts on the door', in addition to a bar room, before he could qualify for a tavern licence. Sheds and stab- ling for 12 horses was another requirement. Some of those early bylaws today seem strange and amus- ing. Examples: The first bylaw was passed Feb. 27, 1850 and was "'a bill to provide for the construction of a plank sidewalk from King st., to South Oshawa'. A save « the - trees campaign may have started as early as 1851 when a. bylaw was passed "to prevent the injuring or de- stroying of trees planted or growing for shade or ornament within the village". | LOCK-UP HOUSE Ten pounds was set aside in 1856 for the erection and main- tenance of a lock-up house in the village and one small room in the town hall was devoted for that purpose.

International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Thursday ratified a new two-year contract with the Oshawa Public Utiliies Com- mission. In a joint statement released today J, B. Annand, PUC gen- eral manager, and Jack Stone, Local 2028 business manager, said that the agreement was reached Wednesday with the help of a conciliation officer. The new two-year contract features wage increases rang- ing from six cents to 20 cents for certain work categories' in the first year of the contract and from 7 to 12 cents during the second year. The 1965 wage increases were backdated to Feb. 1, expiry date of the last contract, and 1 rate increases will go into effect' Feb, 1, 1966, Mr. Annand said the total wage increases will cost the PUC a total of $62,863 during the life of the contract, Some improvements have been made in bus department working schedules and in- creases have been made in the number of hours of work guar- anteed to spare bus drivers. $4.25 EXTRA An additional 17 hours weekly qualify for overtime at double time pay rates, The agreement also features an increase of $4.25 weekly payment to stand- by crews.

' The total budget for 1964-65 is $1,051,000 land expenditures for the first half year totalled $571,825. Only $1,400 was spent on work- books during the first six months compared with the lyear's requirements estimated at $8000 while convention ex- penses were four dollars more than anticipated -- $304 com- pared with $300 budgeted. Cost of the annual dinner ex- ceeded an expected $200 by $197 while caretakers' equip- ment so far cost only $320 less than half the year's estimate of $1000.
