Largest Ice
Rink in City
Opens Doors

New York welcomed its newest and
most gorgeous ice skating rink last
night, when Thomas Healy's Crystal
Carnival Ice Rink and "Sunken Gal
leries" restaurant, at Broadway and
95th street, had its official opening.
Hundreds of nersons lined the gal
leries during the exhibitions by the
skating stars from the Golden
Glades" and while motion pictures
were being shown. Afterward almost
everybody got on his or her own skates
and "broks the ice" so to speak.
The new rink boasts the largest ice
surface in the city, with no pillars to
obstruct the freedom Of the skaters
The balconies arc raised high above
the ice, insuring unusual ventilation,
and the ceiling is lofty enough TO keep
the air always fresh. There will be
regular sessions day and night, at
which the rink will be open to the
public

activities qualify him.

Xmas Contracts
For the Red Sox

DOSTON. Dec. 24.-Con-
d tracts for 1918 for
about thirty-one players
of the Boston National League
baseball club, including Pitch
er Bill James, were ready at
the clubs headquarters to-
night for mailing after the hol-
iday. James's pitching was an
important factor in winning
the pennant and World Series
for the Braves in 1914, but
since then his arm has been in
bad condition, and last season
he remained near his home on
the Pacific Coast, working
only in a few exhibition games.
1t is understood that he
asked the Boston club for an
opportunity to return to major
league work. The contracts
will be sent to all players not
already in war service.

Croker no Longer Big
Figure of Irish Turf

which were worth s2,720, hardly
enough to buy oats for the stable.
Years ago, when Croker figured prom
inently on the turf with Orby and Rho
dora, winner OF the One Thousand
Guineas as a year-old, his stable
was managed by DR.. McCabe, one OF
the closest students of horseflesh in
the British Isles. II was he who ad
vised the breeding Of RhodA B.. the
American marc by Hanover, 20 Orme.
The fruit of the union was Orby, and
subsequently the EPSON victory. Rho
dora, too, was another result of the
McCabe breeding theory. In an evil
hour, however, Croker parted with the
Irish expert, apparently allowing the
goose with the golden egg TO slip
through his fingers. II Is singular that
Croker has not since won a race Of
note, although he has tried hard.
The winning owner In ireland this
year is J. J. Parkinson. with total
OF $26 1925, and the winning sireI is
Clssgerion, with $4,000, total for
seven races.

Boxers Will
Be Numbered
For Tourney
Size of Entry and Oddly of
Names Causes Rule for
State Title Event

An innovation in boxing circles will
be the wearing Of numbers by each
competitor in the amateur boxing tour
ney for the New York State champion
ships at the Manhattan Casino, l55th
Street and Eighth Avenue, tomorrow
and Thursday evenings. This action
was decided upon by the committee in
session yesterday, owing to the record
breaking entry Of ninety performers.
Another reason is that many Of the
boxers have peculiar names, and to al
leviate this difficulty it was voted TO
adopt a number system.
Almost 5000 tickets have been dis
tributed among the different clubs OF
the local district. The demand for
tickets exceeded the expectations Of the
committee, which has been unable to
meet the number Of additional requests.
Stamped on each ticket is Positively
no admission fee charged" thus avoid
ing possible trouble with the police.
A quota Of tickets has been sent to
every military and naval post around
the city in order that the officers may
attend. Men in the United States army
and navy uniforms will be admitted
without tickets.
The entry of ninety boxers repre-
sents every club In the Metropolitan
Association. Numbered among the men
are champions who are now in the ser
vice of the army and navy and who
obtained furloughs to engage in the
competition. A few of them will de-
fend their titles. Championships will
be decided in eight classes.
Private Charles Lutz, Fort Schuyler,
Is the only soldier entered in the 1l5-
pound class, while Edward Dillon, Pei
ham Bay Naval Reserves, is to compete
in the 125-pound division. Frank Cas-
sidy and Richard Conway compete In
the 135-pound class, and Patrick Halli-
gan is entered in the heavyweight divi-
sion. A number of the enlisted men
will represent their old local athletic
clubs to aid in the team point fight.
