Arena condemned, ruled unsafe v Playoff games moved to neighboring rinks g The Arena in Stouffville has been closed and stamped "unsafe". The order was issued, Saturday, on the receipt of complaints from two" spect- ators following a Midget playoff game, March 27. A collision between two play- ers on the north sideboards, they said, caused a section of the stands to 'shift' from six to eight inches. Town Building Inspector, Marshall Miller acted promptly. A check of the structure by a municipal engineer and a construction safety employee, Region of: York, disclosed one truss had rotten away at the base. Mr, Miller then called in a structural engineer with the firm of Knox, Martin and Kretch Limited, to look over "We found that 18 of the 24 trusses were in need of repair or had completely rotted away," he said. He observed too, that the joints, where the roof and the walls meet, were splintered in several places. He said temporary repairs were considered, to com- plete the current season, but the engineer denied appro- val. Games scheduled for Manchester U.CwW.
