"Unique Lyting"

January 10, 1930--Skaters at Lake Placid Club actually do see stars, or to be absolutely truthful, a star when they skate. Not by direct and sudden contact with the ice but by merely gazing at the luminous 5-pointed colord star frozen in ice 5 inches below the surface of the rink. There, gleaming and glowing, tiny colord bulbs mark this electrical achievment. This is the first time in history that electric lyt bulbs hav been frozen into ice. General Electric Co and Edison Lamp Works ar cooperating with the Club in producing here this winter new lyting features never before seen.
