THE BOOM 18 ONâ€"After the first war when things got aettled down a little bit and the people once again became hockey conscious, rinks started to be erected all over the province, in fact all over Canâ€" ada. At that time the great majority of them just natural ioe buildings. GRIMSBY led the arena parade for artificial ice rinks at that time when construction of the present MARR‘S MECCA was started the first of December, 1921, and was opened to the public as an artificial ice palace on January 4th, 1922. That was the fourth artificial ice rink in Canada, the previous three being Toronto, Hamilton, Port Colborne. Niagara Falls did not have their artificial ice surface until tha winter of 1924. ‘Then there was a wave of rink building which the biack days of Ocâ€" tober, 19290, put to an end. Now in approximately the same length of timeâ€"as after the frst warâ€"the rink building boom is well on its way. The big percent» age of them in this case being artificial tee surfaces. Unfortunately our good neighbors to the south, DUNNVILLE, are only starting their campaign to put artificial ice in their arena. They figure three years. I say NUTS. Go borrow the money and have it ready for next winter. mmnvnuumm.muoymtonn three years for ice. It was only the natural ice situation that kept the MUDCATS out of the BIG SEVEN sENIOR "n" group this winter, and what a drawing card they would have been in it.
