In 1970, it had 28 cases with 216 creditors for a total debt of $113,000 while today the fig- ures are 238 cases with 1326 creditors for a total debt of $1,373,440. Although it was obvious that the need for the Service is growing, he sounded a note of caution, which was echoed in the report of the Executive Director Nancy Chamberlain, that growth would be limited to the ability of the Commun- ity to provide adequate funds. The Ontario Ministry of Com- munity and Social Services provides 60 per cent of the approved budget with the remainder being raised from donations received from the United Way and various credit granting agencies. In the past year the case load had increased by 28 per cent and there were no signs that the rate of growth was slowing. In line with their general cost cutting policy, the Province could only in- crease their support during 1976 by 5.5 per cent which will cause greater reliance being glaced on donations from usinesses and the United Way to sustain the operation of the Oshawa and District Credit Counselling Service at the level required by the community. The executive elected for 1976 were as follows: Presi- dent - Martin Shaw, Vice President - Roy Barrand, Second Vice President - A.S. Oakman, Secretary - Angus Smith, Treasurer - Mrs. Marg- uerite Gillies and Directors - Ian Bellingham, Ronald Cook, Jack Gibbons, Tom Hogan, Oswald Houston, Joel Palter, Rev. Max Preisler, Patrick Quinn and Gordon Ward. was small but the ladies were quite pleased with the sum received.

The banquet was the wind-up to a very busy but rewarding season. Following the explosion in Millbrook the arena could no longer be used, ice time had to be found elsewhere for the many Mill- brook teams and this meant a great deal of additional work for those involved.
