true Olie:
How many t,' in the past
have we witnessed the sudden
emergence of a hockey club from
the depts of a poor regular season
finish to the top of the heap and,
playoff, glory?
One can go back to the 1970-71
N.H.L. season for the all time
classic example of ,,such a
performance by a.hocke'y club. .
If you recall, the Boston Bruins
of that year were the club that
smashed virtually all scoring
recerds,. Some et those record
performances will probably stand
for years to-come. .
The Bear pack, that was led by
a couple of fellows named Orr and
Esposito. , were favoured to sip,
the bubbly come spring time on
the basis of a team performance
that was, titimatehedt in hockey
history.
' Upset
Then, along Came the Flying
Frenchmen from Montreal. The
Canadians • upset the . -Beau
towners 4 games to 3 and went on
to nip Chicago, 'andther suprise
team, for the Stanley Cup.
Although nothing that dramatic
is taking place during this year's
I.H.L. playoffs, there have been
some surprises.
The Stars, considered by many,
as the team most likely AO

problems so far. The green team

The Huron County Library
system is .celebrating:- its first,
decade's service during 1977.
In a report tq County Council
last Thursday, County Librarian
Bill Partridge observed that the
county wide Library Board Was
informed in January of 1967 and
that a look back might be
benefiCial to future planning. He
collected statistics for the last
seven years in On attempt to
evaluate growth and trends.
Book circulation, he ncted,--has
shown a steady growth from
1970 to 1976. Last year the total
circulation was 246;000 :hooks.

there has been a gradual decline
of Use in the. small libraries..
In 1970 the circulation of these
branches was 60,000, in 1976 it
was 38;000.. During 1976 the
Whitechurch branch was closed
due to this drop in -circulation.
. Mr. Partridge noted there
has been growth in inter-library
loans. In 1976, 226 books were
sent from other libraries to

considerable increase over 1970-
requests of 75 books.
"More interesting," the.
librarian's report n otes,
rapid increase of books asked for'
from other libraries. 167 requests
were filled from Huron County for
outside librariesiast year, in 1970
there were no such requests for
this service.','
Part of the increase, he said, is
due to- the fact • Huron County

'Adult Books in Print', and since
Wellington County is a newly
formed library, they have made
use of the local service.-
In 1976 there were 16,000
members in Huron 'County
compared to 10,000, in 1970.
"That increase in members,"
Mr. Pattridge told the council,
"is well above the growth in
population for the County."
