Final lllympic Ceremonies - Saturday

(By Jack Sullivan. Canadian Preaa Staff Writer)

OLYMPIC STADIUM. Wein- bZey. Aug. l5-(CP)-A throng of 84.000 stood in respectful silence Saturday and watched the final ceremonies of the i948 Olympic games.

The Olympic flame was ex- tzngulshed. the flags of 59 coun- tries were lowered. and that was the end.

The five-hour finale. beginning with the “colorful equestrian com petition klfown as the prix dos nations. was -an unforgettaine spectacle.

Contested in‘ rain and damp. sultry weather since July 29, the 14th moiern Olympics closed in brilliant sunshine.

There were bands and choirs. speeches and prize-giving. and a ‘parade of Boy Scouts carrying each country's flag. Unlike on opening day. there was no parade of athletes. '

Smartly-groomed and perfectly- trained horses. with the world's leading riders astride, chopped up the famous green Wembley turf.

Mexico won the final two prisi- ed horsemanship crowns. In the prix des nations, an arduous tcs’ cf riding skill. Lt.-Col. H. Mar- lles-Cortes. on Areto, won the in- dividual championship with a su- perb performance against which only six and one-quarter faults were charged.

His marvellous ride gave Mexico the team championship, with Spain second and Great Britau" third.

J. Sigfried Edstrom, president, of the international Olympic com- mittee. pronounced the closing of the games and called upon “the youth of every country to assembm it‘ four years in Helsinki" for the 1962 games in Finland's capital.

"The Olympic games cannot en- fore the peace to which all ‘nu- manity aspires." he said. “but li gives the opportunity to all the youth of the world to find out tnat all men on earth are brothers.

“Thus the games help to obtslr peace. particularly if you con side: that the young men who have competed here today will one dqy become the leaders of their nations."

Massed bands of the British Brigade of Guards played the Greek national anthem as the Greek flag was raised on the ‘lag- pole, signifying that Greece was the founder of the modern Olym- pics.

Then came the British national anthem as the British flag Join ed the Greek flag. showing tnst Britain was the host of the 191'! games.

Finally came Finland's national anthem and the hoisting of ner flas- testifying that the hart games will be held in Finland in

Lays can or Blame At Feet 0f Sportswritcrs

. (By Dave McQueen. Canadian Press Stiff Writer) MONTIZEAL. Aug i5-

(CF)-

Partly on the sports writers them- selves.

Elmer's correspondent claims that "colorful writing extolling athletes whose interest in sports is strictly financial" leaves the amateurs strictly out of the lime- light. This discourages them and they don't train as hard as they should.

Elmer doesn't agree. I-Ie says that what Canadian amateur sport needs is "trlumphant lig- ures" like Babe Ruth-athletes who make the headlines and draw the crowds.

And we won't get such figures, he says. until we give the am ateurs decent places in which to play. We need big stadiums. where the guys and gals that play for fun can strut their stuff before cheering thousands and feel that it's all worth while.

Baseball and psychology-

Just give the psychologists a little more encouragement. and it won't be long before they'll be psychoanalyzirlg every last major league pitching prospect. A fel- low with manic-depressive ten- dencies. for instance, would be a sure bet for a mid-season slump.

Veteran Chicago scout Jaca Doyle was in town the other 21s,, and told Dink (Montreal Gazette) Carroll of the time Cub owner Phil Wrigley employed a coupit. of psychology professors from the University of Illinois.

Wrigley told the profs to pay particular attention to centre fielder Tuck Steinbeck. who was just. a little absentminded. Ou one occasion. theCubs had just. fin- ished a series with Brooklyn and were starting a new one with tile Giants. Stainback went to Ebbfiio Field by mistake and didn't tum up at the Polo Grounds until th- seventh inning.

So when the psychologists pre~ scnted their SO-page report. Wrigley was interested. But nc couldn't understand a word of lt. In desperation. he turned tc Coach Gabby I-Iartnett and asked him what was wrong with Stain» back. ,

I-Iartnett spat on the ground. “Stainback? He ain't. hittlni"
