Students' Skating Rink.

Work was begun yesterday on a skating rink which the Athletic Committee will build on Soldiers Field across the roadway from the new boat-house. It will be rectangular in shape, 400 by 125 feet, and the abutment of the roadway will from one of the long sides. Two hockey rinks, each 125 by 58 feet, will be fenced off at the east end and the remaining space, 284 by 125 feet, will be left open. The rink is to be flooded to the depth of one foot with water supplied from a fire faucet in the boat house. A small admission fee will be charged and season tickets will be issued. Mr. D. L. Turner, instructor in the Lawrence Scientific School, planned the rink and is superintending its construction.
