Excess space has . been growing since enrolments started to decline in 1970, a problem compounded by school construction int he suburbs, Warren Hathaway, associated director of policy and planning for the school buildings branch, said. The $1.6-billion estimate is based on what it would cost to replace 200,000 student places or about 8,000 vacant rooms. Dale Bairstow, a former civil servant who worked on studies related to excess space, said school boards have been negligent in find- ing uses for empty rooms. Boards should stop build- ing schools in suburbs and start moving children around more, said Bairstow. “Anyone who builds an el- ementary school in a neigh- borhood and does not realize that five to eight years down the road there won't be any kids around as crazy.” Bairstow said Alberta is one of the few provinces still building schools. School con- struction in some other prov- inces has ground to a halt, + even in new suburbs. Will sue over Ladybugs PETERBOROUGH, ONT. (CP) — Ladybug, ladybug! Fly away home. The mail isn’t moving by land, air or foam. Unfortunately, about two million ladybugs can't get to their new homes because they've been sitting in post offices since the strike by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers started a month ago. They were mailed to Can- adian gardeners, who use them for pest control, by Fossil Flower Natural Bug Control Ltd., of Toronto, The bugs last six weeks without food in their dormant state in a refrigerator but won't last long sitting in post offices. “I imagine there are lit- terally hundreds and thou- sands of dead ladybugs lying in post offices and mailboxes around the country,” said Bruce Knapp, area represen- tative of the company. Another three million lady- Takes time to adjust to hot weather It takes the average per- son a week or two to adjust to hot weather, ac- cording to experts in the health sciences. Because of the slow change of your body adapting to the heat, you are likely to feel warmer during the earlier days of summer. bugs that got stuck in the company’s Toronto office when the strike began have been picked up by Toronto- area gardeners in the past two weeks, said Knapp. The bugs were part of a shipment of about 10 million to be sent out. “We've had just an enor- mous amount of publicity,” Knapp said. “Virtually the whole three million have been collected.” Knapp said company pres- ident Peter Randonicich, who has been supplying the bugsd for more than 40 years, will sue the federal government and the postal union for a total of $6,000. He sold 30 million last year and expected to sell up to 50 million this year. The bugs sell for $4 for 1,600. ? * CLOSED SUNDAY.

Tex Schramm can do without. “I wish the Eagles had all the pressure of evérybody picking © them,’’ said Schramm, the Cowboys’ president and general man- ager. ‘‘Here they come out of the Super Bow! and they are getting a free ride.” The Cowboys have been’ in- stalled 5-1 picks to play in the Super Bowl by the: ‘Las ‘Vegas books. Last year, Dallas was picked as low as fourth in its division. The Cowboys fin- ished with ¢ 12-4 won-lost record, however, and came within a game of going to the Super Bowl, losing to Phil- adelphia in the NFC title game. One of the pleasant sur- prises for the Cowboys this year has been the play of fullback Ron Springs, who suffered a sophomore slump last year. In Tampa, police and NFL- security officers are investi- gating a series of death threats directed at Bucs Safe- ty Neal Colzie: Colzie, whose two step- sisters were fatally shot in At- lanta in January, said he has received four or five threat- ~ ening telephone‘ calls. Los Angeles Rams yester- day signed linebacker Mel Owens of Michigan, their No. 1 draft choice, and he im- mediately reported to the team’s training camp. Veteran running back Greg Pruitt insists he can start for Cleveland Browns this sea- son. The ninth-year pro un- derwent knee surgery mid- way through the 1979 season and saw only limited action last year, being used mainly as a receiver coming out of the backfield. Pruitt will have to beat out “ veterans Charles White and Terry Miller. : . San Francisco. ’49ers_ cut four players, while New York Jets dropped two and Cin- cinnati Bengals: waived two.
