small hamlet of lucan near stratford building a new arena romplrte with artificial lee a large rural population prob ably accounts for their ability to ralkr the necessary amount actually the problem in aeton seems to favour only equipping the existing arena with an arti ficial ice plant whlrh of rourse would entail renova tions seveial persons didnt think the acton aiena was adaptable for arti
