      Mike Cote: 22, 2663 Lakeshore Blvd. W. Single. He is an assistant greens keeper at a golf course and ran unsuccessfully for trustee in Ward 1 in 1978 and 1980. He believes the school board should view declining enrolment as a chance to increase the teacher/student ratio. He is opposed to the section of Bill 127 that would reduce the decision-making power of local trustees.

      He wants money: Dr. Mario Piacenza of the southern Italian town of Altomonte is in Toronto lookin for funds to build a school for peasant children. He's hoping to get it from the parents of the children he's leading here - natives of Alomonte who left their home town for North America. So far, he's visited 7 cities on a 3-month North American tour but has raised only $2,000 of the $20,000 he needs. He's had a picnic with Altomonteans here and plans another one.
