"Tight Money" Hits Arena Members of the Seaforth Ar- ena 'board have backed notes held by the Bank of IComnserce here ever since the floor was put in the big rink, 3. E. Keat- ing, a former mayor told Sea - forth town council last Thurs- day. Appearing' with him were W. J. Duncan and M. A. Reid. He said that these three and 3. A. Stewart and Dr. McMaster ascii had notes for $900 with the bank which since the tight mon- ey policy was now asking that the 'backers put up collateral in addition to the notes. The amount owing was original1Y $5000 .but $600 had been paid off and now $4500 remained. Mr. Keating saidit was 'hard- ly hardly fair to expect members tithe board to do more than they had already done. They were paying &% now and suggested the town could obtain a lower rate. He said the ice machine had been put in under a similar ar- rangement There had only been three rinks with ice machines 1 the area at the time and by renting the rink for praetioethe money had been finally paid. The proposal to pay for the floor then looked easy: If they had known how dead things were going to drop they would never have touched it. However it was very nice baying the floor there and it was a great help to the fall fair. Mr, Duncan said the 'public had dug down deep when the building was put up and in addi- tion the town 'had guaranteed $40,000. The first year the $2800 debenture had been paid 'by the community center and the following ones by the town. The floor had cost $10,000. Mr. Keating asked council to pay the insurance -premium of $987 which the board was un- able to meet. Insurance is $40,- 000 on the building and $5000 on contents. Councillor Kellar said about $30,000 was still owing on the debentures for the arena. Mr. Keating had praise for the board members -who had done so much work to keep the !building operating. They did not have a caretaker during the summer and members had helped with preparing the building for vari- ous events, helping in the booth, etc. Some maintenance workis needed both in the arena and dressing rooms. He complained that users were so careless and destructive with public ,property and it was very discouraging when, those in charge, who were trying to stretch every dollar to find such foolish things as .bro- ken windows. Mr. Keating said another headache had been deal- ing with union music. He gave council a financial report of the board. Gouncil left the whole matter over to its meeting this week.
