CANLAN INVESTMENT LOOKS TO BUY UP ICE RINKS IN U.S.

     In this morning's WALL STREET JOURNAL, Larry Greenberg's
"small stock focus" report examiens the progress of Canlan
Investment, a company that has been acquiring many ice rinks
across Canada in the past two years.  To date, the company owns
23 ice rinks.  The company hopes to expand its U.S. holdings in
markets such as Wichita and Ft. Worth, capitalizing on the
sport's rising U.S. popularity.  Modern ice arenas offer more
than just a place to skate.  At its Canadian arenas, Canlan
organizes hockey leagues, referees games, sells equipment and
provides restaurant and lounge facilities.  The company expects
to offer more skating lessons at its rinks in the U.S. (WALL
STREET JOURNAL, 1/9).
