The janitors, members of Local 218, Canadian Union of Public Em- ployees, also ratified the agree- ment at a meeting Thursday. Mr. Rudka said that the two- year contract would include an annual $100 across the board increase. A new wage scale, part payment of medical scheme costs, paid vacations and other benefits, figure in the con- tract. USE COMMERCIAL FIRM Trustees Rudka and J. A. Lawrence then moved that a commercial company be used to clean J. F. Kennedy school on a trial basis, beginning Sept. 1. The new eight-room structure would then be the only school in Oshawa without a janitor.

Annual increases are guaranteed by the contract ex- Local 218, said today that he felt the board was morally wrong in approving the clean- ing service. 'I do not think that the union will take any action on this," he said, 'legally the board is right although I do not think it is morally right. "TI don't think the school prin- cipals will go for the idea any- way," he added. Mr. Thomson also explained that the draft contract was rati- fied by the janitors Thursday night and expected that agree- ment would be formally ap- proved and signed Monday. PAID VACATION At the board meeting Trustee Rudka stated that the contract provided a two-week long vaca- tion after a year of service. The vacation term rose to three weeks following ten years' ser- vice. The jantiors will also be paid $2.50 per hour for any work cluding the annual $100 increase. Half the cost of Physicians and Surgeons Insurance and Blue Cross medical schemes will be paid by the board. Chairman Lloyd Bolahood quipped, "if we are paying them this kind of money we can ask for a good work performance." "What happens when the con- tract expires in June 1966,"' ask- ed Trustee Dick Donald. "We have no contract and begin to negotiate again," answered Trustee Rudka. "Off she goes again," said Trustee J. J, Kelly, "and round and round she goes, next time they will want us to pay all the PSI costs." Trustee Ernest Marks moved a vote of thanks to Trustee Rudka and business adminis- trator Frank Shine for their part in. bringing the negotia- tions to a successful conclusion. The motion was approved. : Garden Care, Approve Addition The club has also planned to enter a four-part float ia the parade to include represen- tation from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
