Yale's new skating rink is nearly completed and was opened for skating for the first time last Saturday. The rink is the largest of its kind in the country, measuring 210 by 100 feet over all, with an ice surface of 190 by 90 feet. The structure, which is built in the form of an arena supported by steel trusses on steel columns set in cement, has a seating capacity of 2,000 people and cost $12,000.
The rink will depend on natural freezing for its ice, as no artificial freezing plant has been installed. The final work of setting up the three tiers of seats and of finishing the dressing rooms will be accomplished in the next two weeks.
