2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, Mey 14, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN: -- AN AFTERMATH OF THE SISCO SPEECH Norman Sisco, assistant superintendent of the Ontario ' Department of Education, didn't mince words last March a the annual meeting of the Ontario Education Associa- * With a candor unique in high Education circles, but in well-couched diplomatic terms, Mr. Sisco told the Secondary School Headmas- ters' division that education- ists must insist on reason- By KEN KELLY OTTAWA (CP) -- Gerard Gir- ouard (PC Labelle) said Wednesday he considered the of- fer of a fat election campaign fund as a temptation or an in- ducement--but not a bribe--to get him to join Liberal ranks in Parliament, The tall young lawyer, who switched last month to the Pro- gressive Conservative party from Social Credit, repeated to the Commons privileges com- mittee the complaints which re- sulted in the Commons' decision Campaign Cash No Bribe: Girouard report of testimony in French, the language used most of 'the time by Mr. Girouard in his tes-), timony.

That had caused him to com- plain in the Commons and to deny he had ever tried to join the Liberals.

PRESS COVERAGE WAS EXTENSIVE The Sisco speech was extensively covered by news media ("Ex-Donevan Principal Raps Education Frills," headlined The Oshawa Times.) The speech delighted thousands. It had a stirring truth- "ing, but it automatically ruffled furs in Ontario's far-flung trustee world (including some in Oshawa who quickly took protest pen in hand) because of its source and authorship. The same words had been uttered with monotonous reg- ularity, high indignation at the municipal level for many months by people like Trustee Margaret Shaw; but they suddenly assumed new force, meaning when delivered by a high-ranking Provincial 'educationist from the Queen's Park plateau. By no stretch of the imagination 'did the Sisco speech point to any particular municipality, but some local trustees thought otherwise. The latter group included Chairman E. A. Bassett of the Oshawa Board's building and planning com- mittee. Mr. Bassett, as chairman of the B-P committee, wrote Mr. Sisco and requested certain clarification of his remarks, enclosing our column of April 2 ("Sisco Raps School Build- ing Frills".) Mr. Bassett forwarded us a copy of his letter to Mr. Sisco (in a letter marked "Box 201, Oshawa'), a courtesy that_puzzied us no end, inasmuch as some of his own com- mittee colleagues were not advised that the letter was being gent (although the letter bore the title 'chairman of build- ng and planning committee, Oshawa Board of Education.") Mr. Bassett did inform us he had received a reply from fisco last April 8, but he only did this May 12 when we en- quired. LETTER AND REPLY PUBLISHED NORMAN SISCO Mr. Norman Sisco, Assistant Superintendent, Secondary Education Branch, Department of Education, «4 Eglinton Ave. West, Toronto 12, Ontario. Dear Mr. Sisco: Your recent remarks on school buildings have been given wide publicity. They have usually been reported with the use of words such as "frills", "extravagances", "exorbitantly excessive in cost'. The figure of $60,000.00 in connection with a chem- istry laboratory has been given great prominence. Since you did not specify the school or schools you were criticizing it is natural for the taxpayers in every municipality to be sus- picious of the situation in their respective communities. To illustrate this I enclose a clipping from the Oshawa Times of 2nd April 1964. Perhaps you would be good enough to write to Mr. Gearin (the Times columnist) and point out the "'frills'"', if any, you noted in the Oshawa Secondary Schools, while you were here, or negative such '"'frills", if you found none: You might also point out any features lacking in our secondary schools (as you know them) which you consider desirable. Failing this would you please specify the location of the $60,000.00 laboratory, or at least assure our taxpayers that it is not in Oshawa. Yours very truly, E, A, Bassett, Chairman, Building and Planning Committee, Oshawa Board of Education Dear Mr. Bassett: This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of April 3 concerning the speech I made to the Ontario Secondary School Headmasters' Association during the 0.E.A. Conven- tion. Although I have not been misquoted in essence, the fact that certain parts of my address have been taken out of con- text and quoted verbatim has resulted in some distortion of emphasis. In describing some of the problems which faced principals in the Province, I stated that instruction was be- coming more expensive as a result of higher salaries, fewer teaching periods, and smaller classes, while at the same time there was a growing emphasis on the provision of the very best physical environment including elaborate teaching aids and expensive facilities. 1 strongly urged that the principals must take more responsibi'ity in establishing priorities, as it was increasingly obvious that there was a limit to the per- centage of the tax dollar which cou'd be spent on education. To illustrate the point that well intentioned and sincere people, in an attempt to provide the best possible teaching conditions, could contribute to exorbitant building costs, I deseribed the plans for a model Chemistry Laboratory which had been drawn up by a committee of architects and out- standing Chemistry teachers. Although this undoubtedly was an ideal Chemistry Laboratory, the cost of the room and its facilities was estimated at $80,000 to $90,000. The figure $50,000 which appeared in the newspapers was incorrect and not far from the actua cost of most well equipped Industrial "hemistry . Laboratories ! am noi naive enough to single ou speech to a provincial organization, nor do I intend to analyze the spending of any board unless it is in the course of my as- signed duties, However, I do feel that all school boards and school officials must do some serious' thinking about the. prior- ities which must be established in educational spending any communi y in a s sincerels A istant Superintendent "N Sisco," A of Secondary Education ~thours telling the don) and Joe Macaluso (Hamil-| He has denied in a public ton West) -- as witnesses to the/statement that: money or elec- attempt after displaying initial|tion funds were mentioned in his into the matter publicly. reluctance to bring their names|taik with Mr. Girouard last Feb-| £9 ' |der oath, spent (CP) Canada's)" : é stood at 19,180,000|"hether My " why jruary, He is to be called as al# Mr. Girouard, testifying un-|witness after Mr. Girouard fin- Mr. Girouard said he met the!
