TIS Ao AIMS U A AS SIS IY IA, 3 Chang On SS There will be at least two new| faces on Oshawa Separate School Board in the coming year. Of the| five members whose term: are expiring, two will be unable to offer their services again because they have been transferred out of | the city by their companies. | Five members are elected to the 10-member board each year for| two-year terms. Nominations will be held Nov. 24, and, if an election is necessary, it will be held Dec. 5. These dates coincide with the nominations and elections for city council, board of education and public utilities commission. The trustees whose terms expire this year are V. Egan, J. Fleming, J. McAdam, C."J. Roesch and James Toppings. Mr. Fleming was recently transferred to Peter- borough by his company and Mr. K./seats as all have been filled by es Due Board Egan has been transferred to To- ronto, so that neither will be avail- able for another term. Mr. McAdam, who is completing his first term on the board, said: "It had been my original intention not to stand for another term, but my mind is not made up yet." Mr. Roesch stated: "I wouldn't want fo say at this time as to whether I will stand again." He is a past chairman of the board and has served on it for eight years. Mr. Toppings could not be reach- ed for comment on his intentions. For several years now it has been unnecessary to hold an elec- tion for the separate school board acclamation. i; This year's nomination meeting will be held at St. Gregory's School.
