"You'll have to pày the rest," hie told hier. in Angelo smiles when he recalîs in her reaction. "We didnt know of each other then,,but it (their he marriage) bas turned out in really well. In that way I ar ch lucky. by One year later, the Sacco's ho had their first child, Maria- ng Teresa and two years after no that, Antonalla'was born. ere Angelo's professional n- career was also flourisbing. He came to Canada as a stylist at but found that the shop where Ws he was ernployed did not lîke the this new trend. His boss forced hi to work like the other barbers. Angelo recalîs that his instructions were very simple, "Short, rnediurn, long S or brush-cut." This was ideal for a new Canadian with little Englisb. He moved to Oshawa and worked in another shop but hie did not 'get along very well with the owner and so wîth his first $1,000 hie set up a shop of Shis own. His wife's parents put till up the rest of the money and ,r. City Men's Salon opened its doors. Angelo had been in the country for 18 months when his first shop opened. H1e explains that ne would not have taken the. chance if bis regular custorers had not encouraged bhim. They promi- sed hm their business and on the strength of this he took the plunge, Some of those salle customers of 10 years ago are he stil comng to hirn . The day visited, one man came from Cobourg and explained that bie has been making this tnp regularly for 10 years. Soon after Angelo establish- >ed bimself in business, hîs wife went to hairdressing school to lear the trade. She worked in a irber of salons, learning as nuc as fhe could abaut tho way various bnsi- nlesses were operated. One day Angelo picked hier up from work.t was the first timene had really seen any of lier - work. 1He irmediatelydecid- ed that if she did tbat kind of - work consistently she was good enough to have a shop of er own.

But when an old friend from Markbarn, Lloyd James, current owner of County Chrysier in Bowrnan- ville,urged him to open a business in Bowmanviae, he began to get the bug again.

Diane Dineen B.A., M.L.S., new chief librarian for the Town of Newcastle, looks at books in the children's section of the Bowmanville Library. Diane who took up her duties at the first of the year will divide her time among the Orono, Newcastle and Bowmanville libraries. This will be the first time these libraries have had the services of a professional librarian. by Jean Ahlvik "My motto is service," smiles new chief librarian for the Town of Newcastle, Diane Dineen. Her new position gives her responsibility for the existing library facilities at Newcastle, Orono anc Bow- manville Before amalgamation under regional government none of these libraries were able to afford to hire a professional librarian. Despite the lack of trained professionals, Miss Dineen is very pleased with some of the systems that have been devised. "They seem to be effective and meeting people's needs". The three - libraries have approximately 38,000 vol- umes, but Miss Dineen plans to do some weeding out of out-dated books. She is con- ,cerned that some people may not be aware that the Town of Newcastle libraries are part of the Central Ontario Region- al Library Services in Rich- mond Hill. If the local library does not have the book the borrower wants, a card s filled out and sent to Richmc nd Hill where a telex request is put out to all the major hbraries in the system or farther afield if necessary. Usually within a week or tei days the book is in the hands of the person who wants it. This service is used at least once a day but Miss Dineen would like to see it used more extensively. "Our taxes pay for inter-library loan service and I whole- heartedly believe in using it." It is sometimes said that senior high school students in Bowmanville are disadvan- taged because of the lack of a research library in the vi- cinity. Accordng to Miss Dineen, this need not present a problem if the student organ- izes himself in advance. "We have a little bit of everything and what we don't have we can borrow." Inter-library loan services can operate throughout the whole province pine ridge cable tv Iimited 1353 King Street East Oshawa, Ontarno L1H 1J4 416-579-2232 PI ZZA WAG0 22 Division St. Bowmanville, Phone 623-4134 FIRST ESTABLISHED, PIZZA IN TO WN!e Now Open At 11 AM.

Miss Dineen hopes this will ýchange when she gets a chance to talk to the people at the Richmond Hill eadquarters. When the budget is approv- ed and things get moving under Miss Dineen, she hopes to purchase recording for the Bowmanville location; how ever tapes and other audio visual material are probably in the distant future because of their cost. One immediate purchase will likely be sorne quick reference materials. Another project Miss Dm- een has in mind for Bowman- ville is a vertical file, a collection of clippings from magazines, newspapers and government publications on topics where current informa- tion is very important. The library board which hired Miss Dineen is a creation of regional govern- ment. Retired Postmaster, George Vice, is Chairman of the nine member appointed board. Before coming to New- castle, Miss Dineen was Assistant Head Librarian of one branch of the 'Windsor Public Library system. She holds a B.A. a M.L.S. (Mas- ters of Library Science) and is working on another degree in Business Administration. Miss Dineen has also worked as a school librarian in Guelph and on a special cataloguing project at ·the University of Guelph. She is living in temporary quarters in Bowmanville and will soon move into permanent accommodation. She likes the town and finds the people very friendly. cable6 LISTINGS Wednesday, January 22nd 4:30 All About 5:00, Durham, Report with Bruce McArthur 6:00 Sports with Dave Stew- art and Evening Report with Ron Folk' 6:30 Durham Today with Peter Brouwer 7:00 Whitby Then and Now 7:30 Education Scene with Geo.
