Bredeson's opponent was another incumbent, James Colton. Both men were acclaimed in the 1970 elections but redistribution joined their constituencies for this election. Both men campaigned on the ago he finished second with 660 votes. There were 7,987 eligible separate school voters in Nepean. Mr.

Zinck attributed the higher vote to the municipal elections which previously hadn't been held at the same time as the election for the regional school boards. Two incumbents were defeated. In Nepean, Lome Gignac finished seventh among the nine candidates running for six seats. Mr. Gignac has served on the regional board since its inception in 1969.

In 1970 he served as vice-chairman of the board and in 1971 was board chairman. Lloyd Bredeson lost as representative of the townships of Huntley, March, Fitzroy, Torbolton, North Cow public but she said there would be no more closed meetings than there had been in the past. Mrs. O'Neill's election adds a third woman to the school board. The two female members of the last board, Mrs.

Krygsman and Carmel Kasper, both said they were delighted to have another woman on the board. But Mrs. O'Neill said her sex would be of no particular significance to her performance on the board. The voter turnout was the largest ever for the board. In Nepean the vote was almost double what it was two years ago.

Vernon Zinck, vice-chairman of the last board, topped the poll in Nepean this year with 1,277 votes. Two years Tm t'-' rl communications by regularly visiting principals and attending parent-teacher association meetings. Mr. Bansfield promised that he would push for more involvement of parent advisory groups in board decisions. "The feeling of alienation is combatted by involving people in the operations of the board." "I'm sure the parents can help us in many ways in these difficult times." Yvonne O'Neill wants to reactivate the teacher-trustee committee.

The committee met infrequently during the past year. Mrs. O'Neill proposed the regular publication of a board of education bulletin. Re-elected trustee Suzanne Krygs-man said the lack of communications between the board and the ratepayers was mentioned by many voters at public meetings. She said the new board likely would consider publishing some form of newsletter.

Jacques Aube, Irving Bansfield, Yvonne O'Neill and Femand Godbout promised in their campaigns to keep taxpayers better Informed about activities of the board but they had slightly different ideas after their election Monday about how that should be done. Mr. Aube said the best way is to do away with "unnecessary in-camera meetings." Since its inception the board has been criticized as the most secretive of the four school boards in the region.

Mr. Godbout said that as a taxpayer he often felt too much was done in closed session, and pledged that "anything I feel should be public will get out of those closed-door meetings."

Meat deal was honest, but no bargain By David Smithers and Alison Appelbe Citizen taff writers Suburban residents are claiming a major victory over rural residents in at least three of the smaller municipalities in Ottawa-Carleton. In three townships residents of new housing developments wrestled municipal power from farmers and other rural dwellers. Goulbourn Township Glen cairn candidates swept the councillor slate with the exception of one farmer. Cumberland Township Candidates from new housing developments took all but one council seat, Richmond Lome Brown lost after six years' service as reeve and as a councillor. Mrs Betty Hill, a long-time critic of the village's council and a local weekly newspaper reporter, won a handsome margin over Mr.

Brown. Coun. Gordon Brown was defeated while two other councillors were reelected and two newcomers elected. Torbolton Township Veteran reeve Thomas Dolan, who has served on council for 30 years, was defeated by former councillor Frank Marching-ton. Mr.

Dolan's defeat was one of the ttiajor upsets in the region. Huntley Township Glenn Riv-ington was soundly returned as reeve, a position he has held for the past five years. Marlborough Township Reeve J. C. Donnelly, who has held that office for 34 years, was returned with a healthy majority.

North Gowcr Reeve Ferguson Pratt, a farmer, was returned despite strong opposition from lumber dealer Howard Perkins. North Gower voters also decided to allow sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages in the township. Almost 70 per cent voted for establishing a liquor outlet, while almost 65 per cent wanted a brewer's retail store. Sixty-nine per cent voted for a dining lounge licence and almost 65 per cent voted for sale of liquor in a lounge. Osgoode Township Reeve W.

A. Taylor was returned to office with an overwhelming majority over Jacques Lemay. Fitzroy Township A close contest between two senior councillors was won by Jack Shaw over Mervyn Tripp. March Township Reeve John Mlacak was returned by acclamation and a campaign among nine Kanata residents for four council seats ended with the defeat of one councillor-Ronald Andoff. Stittsville Reeve Albert Black was returned by acclamation and three of the four incumbent councillors were re-elected.

Rockcliffe Reeve Alan Gibbons was acclaimed three of four councillors were re-'-Wted. urn V4 I bought a quarter of beef at a meat market. It weighed 148 lbs. I p.iid 91 cents per pound; a total of $134. I knew there would be some waste when the beef was trimmed, cut and packaged.

But the meat, when delivered to my home, weighed only 123 lbs. That's a 25-lb. drop. It means I really paid $1.09 per pound for my beef. Shouldn't meat markets give you an estimate of the true cost of meat after butchering? I was misled by the 91-eenl-per-pound quote.

Or did the shop keep some meat for itself and cheat me'-R. Mackcn, Crest iew Road. The federal department of agriculture says you got an honest deal but no great bargain. A full beef carcass is expected to lose 25 per cent after butchering for kitchen use. The front quarters have slightly more waste than the rear ones.

As the weight of your beef dropped only 17 per cent it was well within the limit. Animals, like people, have varying amounts of fat. That makes it hard to give exact estimates of final weight. The best way is to have the carcass butchered as it hangs and trim off the waste yourself at home. That will guarantee you all the meat you paid for.

Santas Helpers Can restaurants serve margarine? If you didn't give Buxton for their birthdays, now's your chance to make amends. Statesman billfold in new wine, moss and nutmeg colours. (To match his shirts). It's slim and soft (he sits on it, remember), but has lots of space for bills and identification cards. Matching deluxe credit card case in antique steerhide, $9.50 $9.00 Si: There used to be such a law.

It was changed for Ontario restaurants some time ago. Restaurants may serve margarine but. if they do, they must say so on the menu. If margarine is used without this notice the provincial department of agriculture can lay a charge. I prefer butter to margarine and can always identify them by their taste and texture.

I'm sure an Ottawa restaurant served me toast spread with margarine. Doesn't the law say that restaurants must use only butter, or has this law been changed? Ken Moran. Loekhart Ae. Sin Black. Maiden Blush.
