Ashburton County Skating Club

i A deputation of dflteg&tes from tbe above Clnb, comprising Messrs Cox, Denshire, Tennanf, Alirgt-n, anrtMa'kiy ( eiretary), waited upon the Borough Council last even m it, and presented a petition asking for the eoncf salon of oei tain rights daring the skating season Mr Cox pointed out thab the larrikin element rendered the ice unfit for skaters, as it was not only ma'toloaely broken up, bat was covered with sticks, stones, efco. The deputation would acfe (or complete control of the two uppar reaches of water for the use ofjmemhern of the Club, and outside skaters Mr Mackay stated he was not m favour of m any way interfering with th<* rights of any persons who would only behavathtm selves, and would uot spoil other people's 8 joyrr.eat. He differed from the pet ion m this particular, that hs was cob m favour of reserving the right of the ice to members of the Club, and visitors from a distance only, If the Council could give the curator and the Olubb representative power to enforce rcgu lations to protect the ice, he considered the deputation should be satisixi* The Club. also wished that whatever rights w«re granted should apply during the office Of the present Council, and 1b was proposed to hold a carnival it possible this seasou or next, and tho surplus proceeds were to ba ' devoted to a charitable purpose, The Club would aek the Council to allow a bonfire to be lighted, and any surplus material for same (given, and the patronage of Council wban the function was ultimately arranged was desired Messrs Alington, Denshire, and Oox also urged thab tba application should be granted After the deputation withdrew the Mayor said he was sure the Council would protect the ice as far as possible Mr Ua/ison whilst declining to grant the Clab the right to fully control the ice wonld support giving a<* much assistance as possible Mr Reid considered the petition as written could siot be adopted, he would favour notice boards Heine; er< dted and the Curator and other clubs representative having power to look after the ice surfaces He would not agree to the public being excluded Mr Willis maintained, m opposition to Meaera Davison and Reid that the Board had power to give the club tha control asked for —as they had given similar power to other clubs. They should not make & distinction m dealng with such application* which were practically m favour of con* serving the rights of the people of Ashburton »nd increasing the attraction! of their Domain* Mr Davi-ion hers moved the following resolution* That; the Curator be given authority to »c!b with the Ashbarton County Skating Club to protect tho ice, and be given power to prosecnte any person found wilfully destroying or m any way inter feringr with the ice or skaters Mr Clarke agreed that the ice should be protected by the Board. Tha Mayor stated that provision should be mad© to prevent the present disgraceful spoiling of the skating sutfuee, i and prompt action should ba taken rjl hey might agree to the bonfire and other requests included m the morion and sabj°cb to the control of th^ Curator. Mr Reid seconded the motion, which waa supported by Mr Jones," and carried unanimously.
