At present there are in the immediate vicinity of the University only public places where hockey can be played except by candidates for the University team and by members of the sevens competing in the scrub hockey series. To belong to either of these classes requires a certain degree of ability and more or less regular attendance at practice. Most undergraduates lack either the necessary time or skill, but to such men a daily hour of hockey would, nevertheless, be most welcome and enjoyable.
To provide this opportunity for regular exercise it has been suggested that an extra rink be erected in the Stadium, which should be open to all members of the University. If this privilege is considered too broad, everybody except holders of H. A. A. tickets could be excluded from the enclosure. Finally, if the Athletic Association cannot at present bear the expense of this arrangement, coupon tickets might be sold at a nominal price.
The CRIMSON advances this suggestion merely in the hope that an opportunity may be given to the individual undergraduate, as such, to take part in one of the best forms of outdoor exercise, without leaving Cambridge, and without interference from the usual crowd that gathers at public skating places.
