Autos in Crash.
 The ice skating season opened yesterday at the various rinks of the city. Joseph Civizzio, caretakor Of Rockwell park, said this morning that the ice on the pond was quite safe after the cold stretch that the city has experienced, and several hundred persons enjoyed them selves on it's surface yesterday. The new lagoon on Memorial boulevard also proved to be quite popular yes tcrday. Mir. CiyiGzio said that nearly 200 skaters had frequcntod the new pool during the course of the day and relieved him greatly as he be- lcVcd that the Rockwell park ice was not yet hard enough to hold all the skaters. The number, he cN- plaincd. was divided between the two rinkS. There were also large num- bcrs at the Malone's pond rink and at the other nearby places.
 There is q special building at Rockwell park where skaters may put on their skates and warm them selves. There are several facilities "t the park to provide comfort for those who wish to enjoy themselves and it is thought probable that some sort O. q comfort structure will be erected at the loulevard rink.
