season are expected to differ very
little from those of last year.
Lakes Superior and Michigan -
Huron are expected to be about
one,irach below their 1971 levels,
while Lakes Ontario and Erie
should be about one inch above and,
Lake St, Clair two inches•above.

forecast (provided bby. the Detroit

be above both their long-term and
