If the challenge is accepted, the tilt will be played on Memoriai Arena ice, Wednesday, Feb. l3th. Winner will take on the Lions Club for the broombaîl champ. ionship of Lower Siobovia the following week. e Broomball is played with brooms, as might be expected. Brooms and proceeds will direct- cd toward artificial ice for the Memorial Arena. Here's how the game is played: Each service club will 'ice" a team, negative skates, but previd- ed with brooms. A basketbal will substitute for a puck. The idea is te put the basketball in the net with the broom. Goalies on each team as welI as each player will be allowed te don pads . . . anything up te rugby equipmcnt can be used. Suits et armour and lethal weap- ens are net considered in broom- bail vogue. Other than that, the rules cf the game are similar to those adhercd te in hockey. Hockey fans are urgcd te at- tend the broomball massacre whcrc the admission price wiil be 25 cents for aduits and 10 cents for kids. For such a small entry fee thousands of laughs will be provided te say nothing cf crack- cd skulls and broom butt checks.

You lhavd T I I - THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMAN~VILLE, ONTARIO rHURSDAY, FEBRU-ARY 7. 1951 time is for Our own Senior OHA Club. Whether or flot artificial ice would be a paying proposition mn your Arena, I wouid flot be pre- pared to say. 1 do say, and you can sec for yourself that in our case it is quite a profitable busi- ness, and it would be safe to as- sume that even without our Toronto customers upon whom we ceunt on quite heavily, it could stili get by so far as meeting ex- penses. We have three other arenas around us within a radius of 20 miles, but our revenue showed no appreciable change when they opened. They are Unionville, Aurora and New- 1market. One of the keys to the success- fui operation of an arena is cf fie- lent management. Our man is a go-getter, and is continually checking up on any possible slack nights to work up a hockey game, carnival or other attraction in order to keep the steady flow of revenue. Another function 1 failed to mention is hockey for smal lads, some sixty of them. This ice time, $30 each Saturday morning is provided by the Lions Club. The Arena as seen to provision of uniforms, and four coaches to take care of the four teams operated. I don't know whether I have provided information which will be useful to you or flot - how- ever should you wish to know anything further l'Il be glad to Isend along another note. I might mention that two x- penses which you would escape as a community project, would be taxes and possibiy water rates. An extremely large amount of water is used, running into several million gallons a year (for cool- ing purposes in the plant con- densers). We pay a fat rate which we wanged from the town of $375 a year. Chuck Nolan.
