Wednesday afternoon it was discovered that the ice in Gaylor's Cove was in splendid condition, and strong enough to bear.
Thursday a series of High School racing contests were planned for Saturday afternoon.

There was so much money left over in the Athletics Committee's treasury that it was voted to offer a series of individual trophies for boy and girl skaters in different events.
Moreover, in these skating events members of the freshman class were to be allowed to compete.
"Now, see here, fellows," urged Dick, when he had gotten his partners aside, "some of the freshman class ought to be winners of some of the events.

We want to give our class a good name.

And, out of the six of us, there ought to be one winner for something.
I wish you'd all do your best to get in shape.

You'll all go over to the cove with me this afternoon, of course." They did.
