The, XXI Olympiad is now
histery, Although politicalhassles
and gold medal performances
grabbed most of the headlines,
other stories evolved as well.
Some of the stories were filled
with humour, some with despair
and others with irony; some
scenes featured exhaustion and
pain, while others showed jub-
ilation; the most memorable ,cones
displayed sportsManship and
41, comradery, and most of them
were created by the athletes
themselves.
For example, two Soviet can-
oers began to congratulate each
other after winning a race. In
their exuberance, they tipped
their canoe and had to be fished
from the.. Olympic,<Basin.
Meanwhile, two British yachts-
man, who were disgruntled with
their 14th placing in 'a 16-team
•;* event,' burned their craft and
- swam ashore.
The tension of the competitions
also took its toll elsewhere, Four
years ago Olga Korbutt of the
Soviet Union charmed the gym-
mastic fans with a winning smile
and dazzling routines. Although
she began the 1976 Games with
the same competence, this time
her best wasn't enough. She was
overshadowed by a petite four-
teen-year-old from Romania,
Nadia Comaneci.

More mail from former .pupils
of S.P.S. Today I received a card
and note from Clare Westcott
Exec. Secretary to Premier Davis.
Rarely a week goes by that 1 don't
receive a card with '"note'"` and
sometimes a letter telling me of
his activities.
This time he reports having
lunch with the Queen an Prince
Andrew on the HMS Royal,
Britannia which he described as a,
'fabulous -experience'. ,Previously
he had sent me a copy of the
seating plan for this 'occasion:.
When in England 'Coronation'
Year 1953., I 'saw this ship in
Portsmouth but couldn't go a-
board as they were preparing it
for a cruise. I also missed St.
Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh as it
was going through a touching up
process for the Queen's 'visite. I
also missed Holyrod Castle for
the same reason. They really do a
gi thorough job for such occasions.
I see I made the "In the fifty
• year years agone" this week. Mr.
C.O. Shaw, founder of BigWin Inn
in Lake of Bays saw the local
Minstrel show in Huntsville and
requested that it be' reporduced at
Bign;:n for the guests, I was home
oh holidays at that time.
•, As I had• a solo and took part in
a. song and dance with three
couples, they brought me back for
the show at which time I was a
. guest of Bigwin Inn.

As the pressure mounted,
Olga's performances became
shakey, and she fought back
tears. The audience, sensing her
plight, encouraged her with a
warm +applause as she prepared
for her final floor exercise. The
result was an almost flawless
routine that won a silver medal
for Olga and a familiar smile for
`the crowd. %-
One of the male gynmasts en
the Japanese team suffered in' a
different way. He 'broke his leg
during one of his routines, but he
wouldn't quit. Before entering
the hospital he completed the two
remaining exercises.
Many of the athletes spent
years training for the '7'6 Olym-
pics; a gold medal was their goal.
Unfortunately only a few could
win.
The contrast between the win-
ners and the losers was especially
evident at the end . of the
decathlon competitions. 'Bruce
Jenner of the- U.S. jogged his
victory lap looking as though he
could race again, while the losers
lay exhausted at the 'finish liner,
Another American, Frank Shor-
ter prepared for years for the
26-mile marathon in Montreal id
which he finished second. Al-
though he was disappointed, he
commented that often a mar-
athoner's goal is "not to win, but
just to complete the gruelling
test."
The men weren't the only
competitors to demonstrate en-
durance. In women's swimming,
Kornelia Ender of East Germany
won two gold medals within a,
span of only twenty-five minutes.
While praising the athletes for
their achievements, an honour-
able mention should go to the
alert stadium worker who relit the
Olympic flame with -his lighter
after it was doused by a cloud-
burst. In addition, the score-
keepers and the media comment-
tatOrs passed the test presented
by the Indian field hockey team. 9
men on the I6:man roster were
named Singh.
''The spirit of the .Olympics,
my opinion, was exemplified in
two scenes. After Jace Wstbla of
Poland made his winning high
jump, the silver medalist, Greg
Joy of Canada, greeted him with a
congratulatory bear hug. Mean-
while at the pool, two East
German girls, who won the gold .
and silver medals, raised the
arms of the bronze medallist, a
young Canadian girl, in a victory
salute.
The spontaneous . handshakes,
slaps'on the backs and hugs of the
athletes were rays of goodwill
that shone through the political
shadow of the XXI Olympiad. .
