Bey. Stratford's Largest Clothing House Communication To Editor of Stratford Mirror: My first trip to the Stratford arena -- this Spring to witness the hockey -- game between Falcons and Nationals proved quite a costly trip, as to the game I will register satisfaction as we are all for Stratford Nationals to win the Oke trophy emblyematic of -- the chamypionship. And no doubt they will win it. But to get down to business--What is the mater with the lighting system on North street, where the Arena is situated? With all the traffic up and down there six months of the year at least 30 per cent. outsiders. And the poor public have to flounder, slip and slide around in the muck and mire of one of the busiest spots in the city. To witness a night's sport with wet feet and mud- dy clothing--surely something can be done to do away with unsatisfactory situation. If the city fathers would unloosen their purse strings and pat- ronize the sport at the Arena then. they would soon see that the lighting system on the approach to the Arena -- ; is inadequate. The public would not have to sit there all night' with damp and wet 'a clothing--through lack of poor light- ing--which is the main reason for this article going to the press for publica- tion--Wake up City Fathers. You won't need to polish your glasses. oe Just pay your $1.25 for a ticket and © stroll down to the Arena and you will find it necessary to use another pair of boots as_well as another pair of ee trousers the next day.
