Arena group: president
urges study of offer

_ Airport hanger or ice arena?

"That's - the question effectively -put before. Terrace
citizens by the Canadian Pacific Abrlines’: offer to sell the
hangar at the airport to. the Municipality for- a token price
of $1,

if the hangar is bought for the dollar, the cost of taking
it down, transporting it, erecting it in a new location and
clearing the old Site to airport specifications must be added
to the purchase price, =~
' Reeve, J. Fred Weber’ introduced the idea “at a meet-_
ing of Terrace Municipal Council February 13.

Council decided t6 consult the Recreation. Commission,

The first news of the offer brought some excited comment
from local citizens who felt that a “Skate in 68""-alogan
might have some meaning after all.

Meanwhile a group of: pilots also petitioned Counc,
to leave the hangar where it was as a service to amall-
plane operators.

e e eo

Orie group which was expected to show keen interest in-
the hangar offer was the Terrace Arena Association,

But Association president Art’ Bates surprised member's
ata February 21 meeting by calling for a thorough. study
before pressing for the use: of the hangar -as an arena,

He sald that in light of developments in flying and. air
services, “serious consideration must-be given to the con |

in general,’*

Bates said, "hs president of this association, I. am
torn between my desire toobtain an arena as 600M as possible
and the equally real need for the hangar at the airport.””

*T would. hesitate,’*. continned Bates, "to recommend
we get our arena at the expense of another facet of our
economy.’”. .

; Bates said that other plans and projects ore under dis-
. cussion, and’ a. décision- from the municipality xegarding
