_The lessons progress in difficulty and tests will be held
often enough so as not to hold back those who are capable.
The lessons include beginning, push offs, stroking, for-
ward and backward cross-cuts, turns, edges, etc. Once
most of these are mastered the student should have better
balance and more co-ordination in general skating.

For hockey skaters there will be a Power Skating
Course. This is for developing speed and. power, includ-
ing sections from the Course described above. It con-
tains seven basic levels, again working up from non-—
skaters. This gets skaters doing the proper and easier
turns, etc., automatically - not having to concentrate
on their feet.

The Raffle for the two clowns, donated by Eve
Thirlwell, was very successful and the Artificial Ice
Fund was increased by $294.00 as a result. Happy rec-
ipients of the Clowns were Violet Wilms and Verna Knowles &
A special thank you to the ladies who helped to sell
tickets for this Raffle.
