thursday march i6 1972 the tribune page 3 schools are for people conference more public use means more money used markham ad ditional use of school facilities can be arranged sam chapman york county board of education director told a conference at markham saturday but it will cost ad ditional dollars in a frank assessment of the present position held by persons within the school system mr chapman said board members would be very reluctant to utilize budget money for extracurricular activities he noted that such opinions did not begin and end with trustees he pointed out for example that a physical education instructor would not want his equipment damaged because his replacement funds are limited the principal is hesitant to grant his approval because it places additional pressures on the staff and the board is slow to push such programs because they get the blame when costs increase trustees are anxious to co operate he said but their first respon sibility is education mr chapman also pointed out that board members are well aware that every suggestion carries a price tag with little or no financial return people who are already criticized for spending educational dollars will certainly fight against spending dollars for non- educational use he continued a conference on the subject schools are for people was held at markham saturday with representatives present from both york region and ontario county shown here receiving an while base on which to identification tag from sandi king of richmond hill is wilfrid morley of stoufiville whitchurch stouffville councillor betty vannostrand looks on jas thomas the director upholding the position of the educators denied that theirs was a dog in the manger attitude he said rather that the policy in school use had been broadened but the need still existed for closer cooperation between the municipal councils and the school boards to establish a satisfactory financial on establish these programs being specific mr chapman suggested school facilities could be used by such organizations as senior citizens and craft groups he noted too that most school libraries contained a wealth of material that could prove beneficial to nonstudents within the community mrs gaile gaele of king township said many facilities were already available in her area but residents lacked an awareness of what those facilities were she said that the urbanrural makeup of the municipality added to this problem robert rist a regional education director said a first step in setting up a community program in schools was to learn the needs within the community he said the day was not far off when school buildings would be open 12 months a year and 24 hours a day the time has come for us to break out of our defensive cocoons and fly a little he con cluded young people are not bums by donald m deacon mpp yorkcentre yorkcentre at a recent danson deacon meeting in richmond hill the meetings that barney danson federal member for york north and i hold regularly throughout the riding in order to give you an op portunity of firing questions at us and giving us your point of view i was interested to note the vehemence with which some of those in our audience attacked the young people of today their point of view seemed to be that young men and women just leaving school are homeowners call to 10 pm 2000 50000 obtain all the

although it is not borne out by the facts is sur prisingly prevalent among the people of my generation i certainly have a more than rassing interest in this question as i have six children of my own ranging from ages 23 to 12 and i certainly wouldnt relish the thought of having to support them until their middle age but in conversations with my sons and daughter and with other young people i have come to realize that for many who have left or are leaving school at this time that they are not in terested in simply getting employment but insist that it be meaningful em ployment the word meaningful has been very much overused in recent years but i think that for these young people it signifies that their jobs should be relevant to the problems that they are meeting in the world today rather than merely a means of earning a living j the beginning is near march 27th marks the beginning of the uxbridge branch red cross fund drive our objective is 135000 last year thanks to you our drive went over the top by s500 this may not seem to be a great amount of money but with the worldwide coverage of red cross and its vast system of volunteers this amount can often mean the difference between life and death in some disaster areas or bring hope health and safety to those in need to keep our work functioning for the community benefit your donation is necessary for such projects a- the loan cupboard blood donor clinics water safety and emer gency aid this year lets try and make it si 000 over our objective send your donetion to general delivery uxbridge po all donations of over si or more will receive a receipt to those of us who went through the depression years when the possession of a job any job was of prime importance this attitude may seem strange but i am sure that most young people are sincere in their belief and they are not afraid of hard work for example there are tefi applicants for every job available in frontier college the project which sends educated young people into the rural areas of this country where they are employed at hard manual labour for very little pay and agree to assist in the furthering of the education of disad vantaged people with whom they work these are not jobs with a future they are not jobs which pay highly but for these young people they are jobs which are highly satisfying no young people today are not bums unwilling to work anymore so than our generation but they do demand that the jobs which they un dertake shall con tribute something worthwhile to the world in which they live and which they in their turn will one day run i think they have a point mk 0b always ready 1iik kill cross is people iike you people like you we can make good things j happen i i i call me i i uxbridge branch red cross ill bring you ideas
