ICH SKATING ARFAS

 

Results of Preliminary Ouestionnaire

 

The National Recreation Association has received so many requests for in-
formetion on types, surfaces and methods of creating ice skating rinks thet e question-
naire on the subject was sent out recently to a limited number of executives in the
stctes of Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey and Rhode
Island. Such a wide diversity of fact and opinion was shown in the replies that few
conclusions of distinct value can be formulated on the most satisfactory method or on
the conditions under which ice can be made most efficientlye A few facts, however,
will be of intereste

 

Where can we oduild an ice skating rink? How big shall it be? The question-
naire showed that skating rinks have been made on playgrounds and playfields with sod
or. soil surfaces and on tennis courts, concrete, clay and bituminouSse (Most of the
data on tennis courts relates to cloy surfacese) An important factor in creating
ice skating rinks is the stipulation that the ground to be flooded or sprayed should
be level and smooths weeds should be cut close to the ground and all twigs and leaves
should be removede The question on the minimum size of a rink drew mony different
estimatese Most replies stated that a tennis court comprised sufficient area for a
children's rink, but other figures ran as high as a 40,000 square feet minimume

 

Construction

 

An important point brought out is that banks should be constructed around
artificial rinks. While clay embankments (from 8 to 36 inches high) were advocated
in some instances; the consensus is that planks backed by dirt or clay are beste
The boards may vary from 4 to 14 inches in height. It was suggested thet they be
sunk at a 45° angle, covered with tar paper, and banked with dirt. One superintendent
reported that the board bank may be held upright with 2 x 4 inch stakese

Ground and Temperature Conditions

 

Floodinge There should be several inches of frost in the ground before
areas are floodede The correct temperature for flooding, as indicated by the questior
naires, varies from 15 to 30° (average 26°). The temperature should be 26 end
falling, howevere It was suggested that the ground be sprayed first, in order to
‘establish a base of ice, and then floodede

 

: If a hose is used in flooding, it is advised that the hose should not be
placed on the ground, as such procedure results in a hole and the water will drain
from the rink.

Sprayinge A satisfactory temperature for spraying was recorded in answers
from 15 ct ee around 20° == and falling). Those questioned on spraying
used anything from a g-inch garden hose to a 3-inch fire hose, but the l-inch garden
hose, spray nozzle, was generally thought to be the most efficiente It is best to
spray at nicht, letting one layer frceze before applying the nexte ‘The answers on

the thickness of ice for tennis courts before skating is permitted varied from 1 to
4 inches (average 2 inches); for playgrounds, 1 to 3 inches (average 15). It was

stated that ice should be maintained by spraying to remove cracks and bumpse

Removing Water from Areas

 

The executives reported drainage from outlets, dams and valves, and natural
drainage and evaporatione. ©

Difficulties

 

Flooding. .In the lack of cold weather (when the ground is not solidly
frozen) the water may seep through the grounds This would indicate precaution in
determining proper ground and temperature conditions before floodinge

Sprayinge The difficulties with spraying seem to be mainly in regard to
temperature--as one superintendent said, "One warm day can undo three nichts' worke"
All agreed that something must be done to prevent skaters from using the ice while
it is soft or before it is sufficiently thicke Rough surfaces result from this
practice. Attendants are necessary or the area must be fencede

Resultant Damage to Areas

 

The executives were unanimously agreed that flooding playfields does no
damage to the ground, whether turf or soile

 

In most cases there was no herm done to tenis courts. Exceptions: Water
sometimes seeps under concrete courts, causing cracks in the concrete. The problem
is to close the expansion jointse One official reported that, in addition to delayed
opening of clay courts for regular use in the spring, they required more work after
they had been converted into ice skating rinks.

Advice from the Executives

 

If possible, the rink should be in a sheltered platee If it can be
sheltered from the sun, the ice stays in better condition. When feasible, permanent
curbing should be constructede One executive suggested that there will be 75% more
skating at night than during the day if lights are installed. On the other hand, do
not allow night skating unless the area is well lightede

This is a pertinent question, for even those who reported unsuccessful
attempts in creating ice skating rinks want to continue experimentinge Because of
widespread interest, the Association hopes to follow up this preliminary questionnaire
with more complete information. . Executives are urgently requested to submit to the
Association their experiences in the preparation, construction, and maintenance of
ice skating areas in order that more detailed information may be made available.

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Dre Forrest Ce. Allen,
Director of Physical Education,
University of Kansase

Dear Doc;

There are a few points regarding the administration
of the Intramural program which I feel should come to your
attentione :

The first of these items I consider of greatest
importance, and I will confine this letter to that one point.
It is the question of adequate helpe Last summer we talked
the situation over and it was decided that Burt should help
on the intramuralse Since that time the addition of equitation
classes and the placing of practice teachers in the public
schools along with other duties finds Burt pretty well occupiede

While I can count upon considerable help from the
Intramural Managers, they cannot assume enough responsibility
to take much of the load off my shoulders. You will recall that
one year we had Ernie Vanek and for a semester Gordon Gray to
help in assigning officials, handling postponements, and taking
care of the general mechanics of the programe Jay Plumley did
a fine job of that phase of his work.

If we could secure some graduate student about the
type of Gordon Clucas or some well-known senior who has com-
pleted his competition, one who has tact and personality, I am
confident it would help our situation greatly. At the present
time with Johnson in the office but a couple of hours a day, I
find that I am so occupied with the mechanics of the thing that
I can do little else. I am sure that you understand that this
is in no way @ complaint or that I am unwilling to do my share,
but that I am miking this suggestion in the interest of depart=
mental progresSe

Although this is an immediate problem, I realize
that we can perhaps make no different adjustments until next
fall. If you consider it advisable I shall be pleased to mention
the problem to Dean Schwegler or other members of the budget

committee.

TO DEPARTMENT AND DIVISION HEADS;

Attached you will find the forms to be used in making
your departmental maintenance and assistance reports to the
Budget Committee this spring. The forms are being mailed out
somewhat ahead of the budget conference schedule in order that
you may have sufficient time to prepare your reports. We plan
to start the conferences about March l. ;

Please fill out the forms in detail. The soporte
are intended to show three things: (1) the exect departmental
income and erpenditures for 1938-39; (2) the income and expendi-
tures for 1939-HO to date and the estimted totals for the en- ©
tire year; and (3) the income estimated, budget allowances re-
quested and expenditures recommmded for 1940-41. If you do
not keep office records along the lines of the two forms, you
can easily compile the data called for from your office files,
the Assistance Fund Report from your Irregular Payroll records
and the Maintenance Fund Report from the monthly statements
mailed to you by the Business Office.

. The classifications of expenditures given on the forms
are merely suggestive, and you may need to add to the lists to
give an accurate picture of your department,

Additional copies of both forms are available at the
Chancellor's Office and will be sent on request. If you have
questions about preparation of any phase of the reports please
feel free to call on this office for assistance.

Sincerely yours,
