ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION HAS PUR.
CHASED WEINBER V'S
COLISEUM
WILL AID HOCKEY
Plan to Build Rink and Keep It
In Shape Five Months
Of the Year
Michigan students will enjoy ice
skating five months out of the school
year, it was announced, yesterday by
Fielding H. Yost, director of athletics,
as a result of the purchase of Wein-
berg's Coliseum, made last week. This
indoor ice pavilion has hitherto been
operated as a private enterprise.
"The Coliseum will be open to all
men and women of the faculty and
student bodies," Director Yost stated.
It will be rebuilt, enlarged and im-
proved. In addition to facilities for
pleasure skating,tan ideal hockey rink
is to be built for the use of the Var-
sity and interclass hockey team. When
artificial ice manufacturing facilities
are completed, we will be able to
schedule games almost any time of the
year and will be independent of
weather conditions."
Michigan hockey teams have had
poor equipment for some time, but
have a good record in spite of it. The
1924-25 aggregation won the Confer-
ence championship without having a
home rink to play or practice on part
of the time.
Although no purhase price has been
announced, it is known that a con-
siderable sum was involved. Like all
athletic plant, the Coliseum was en-
tirely paid for by the earnngs of com-
petitive sports.
