LEHTINEN EDITOR'S PREFACE The Olympic Protocol requires organisers of Olympic Games to publish as early as possible a printed report of the course of the Games. More than two and a half years, however, were needed after the Closing Ceremony of the XV Olympiad Helsinki 1952 for the completion of the present report. The main reason for this delay is that the sifting and condensing of an extremely heavy mass of material was entrusted to a single individual. Responsible for the contents of the report is the Organising Committee, whose representatives have examined the ms and given it their final approval. In the collection of material the Editor has been assisted by Risto Laakasuo, M.A., Sakari Lahtinen, M.A. and Miss Anna-Maija Helminen, all of whom were employed in the Games machinery already during the stage of preparations. For material amendments to the text the Editor is indebted to Major General Yrjö Valkama, Sports Director in the Games, and to Mr. Eero Petäjäniemi, Director of the Press and Public Relations Division. The English translation is by Alex. Matson. The editing of the illustrations is the work of the artist Aukusti Tuhka. In the proofreading, which in a work of this kind involves constant checking, and in seeing the work through the press Mr. Sakari Lahtinen and Mr. Pellervo Kääpä have untiringly assisted. For expert advice on the chapters devoted to the different sports the Editor is indebted to Messrs: Olavi Varoma, shooting; Juhani Salmenkylä, basketball; Ape Janhunen, canoeing; Matti Koskenmies, modern pentathlon; Veikko Sillantaka, boxing; Väinö Eskola, yachting; Eino Nevalainen and Björn Strandell, equestrian; Björn Erik Björnström, rowing. To all of the above the Editor's grateful acknowledgements are due. In conclusion the Editor thanks the Organising Committee for the XV Olym- piad Helsinki 1952 for the generous confidence shown him.

SIGFRID EDSTRÖM HONORARY PRESIDENT OF THE I.O.C. AVERY BRUNDAGE PRESIDENT OF THE I.O.C. SINCE 1953 THE TASK COMPLETED Finnish athletes have competed in the Olympic Games since 1906. The successes gained — which include 80 Gold Medals — aroused the greatest enthusiasm among all sections of the population. The opportunity held out for a small nation to match itself in peaceful competition on equal terms even with great nations raised the noble Olympic idea to the status of a second religion among our athletes. Under the inspiration of the victories achieved at the Stockholm, Antwerp, Paris and Amsterdam Games, the thought of once holding the Games in Finland, in our own arenas, in the midst of our own people, began to haunt the minds of our boldest athletic leaders. The thought was first translated into action in 1928, when a Stadium Foundation was created, which later, with funds collected from the people, built the Olympic Stadium in Helsinki. At the meeting of the International Olympic Committee in Los Angeles in 1932, Finland appeared for the first time as a candidate for the 1940 Games. The decision was postponed to the meeting held in Berlin in 1936, when of the members present 26 cast their votes in favour of Helsinki, 21 going to her closest rival Tokio. At this meeting absent members were permitted to record by proxy votes cast in advance. The proxy votes turned the scale 36—27 in favour of Tokio. Two years later Japan voluntarily relinquished the honour and in July 1938 the 1940 Games were entrusted to Helsinki. The outbreak of world war in the autumn of 1939 made it impossible to organise these Games. Having expended much labour and means on preparations for the 1940 Games, after peace had been restored Helsinki appealed to the Finnish Government, announcing her willingness to organise the XV Olympic Games in 1952. The city was prepared to construct at its own cost new venues and enlarge the existing venues if the Government would guarantee a sum of 300 million Finnish marks — about 1300000 dollars — against eventual losses in connexion with the organisation. On receipt of this guarantee the Helsinki Municipal Council made a definitive decision on April 23rd 1947. A few sceptics certainly voiced fears that the city would be unable to stage the Games with due dignity; the decision was nevertheless unanimous. The I.O.C. dealt with the matter at its session in Stockholm on June 17th 1947. Now some members of the Committee, too, doubted Helsinki's suitability. Was Finland, burdened by an enormous war indemnity, financially in a position to stage the Games ? Would this small nation, still nursing wounds left by war, be capable of carrying out the task ? At the first ballot Helsinki received 14 votes, 15 going to rival cities. The second ballot gave Hel- sinki the required majority, 15 votes. Thus to Helsinki fell the honour of organising the 1952 Olympic Games. When the news reached Finland, town and country hastened to celebrate the event by hoisting the national flag. Newspapers published special editions expressing joy at the confidence shown in the nation and the responsibility she had been chosen to bear. In a trice an Organising Committee had been formed. At its founding meeting it passed a 13 resolution of far-reaching consequences by adopting as its guiding principle the Coubertin spirit in all its purity. Politics were once and for all eliminated. Internally this denoted a truce on the social and lingual fronts, internationally the assembling of all nations at the Games. Sporting youth was invited to Finland from the countries already belonging to the Olympic organisation, but also from the countries which now wished to join it. In some cases this was in conflict with the letter of the Olympic Protocol. Of the 81 countries invited, 79 sent representatives to the Games, 70 sending active competitors. The organisers are proud of this international success.

That's why he announced that he would not include the results in the paper, but'only mood pieces to launch our Photo: Private collection Karel M iljon. ir. thinking aboutthis sport'.“ Indeed, a few days later he filled half a page with a ‘boxing impression'-entitled: 'The Olympic butcher' - which did not hide his contempt for that 'stupid sport' in which 'anhedonia leads to a fistfight'.5 The Mayor of Amsterdam at the time, Willem De Vlugt, had been rather blunt, saying those sport fans that wanted to see bloocletting should go to the slaughterhouse. Since late 1922 public boxing matches had been banned in Amsterdam following a dramatic, fatal boxing incident. De V ugt was dead-set against lifting the ban considering the approaching Olympic Games. But he changed his mind when he was subtly told that boxing had been a full-fledged Olympic sport Unfairness? The loss Karel Miljon suffered in the since the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis. Barely hiding his semi-finals against Ernst Pistulla of Germany at the reluctance, he allowed a temporary lift of the boxing 1928 Olympics was the epitome of unfairness. His ban, so that competitive boxing was allowed during the disillusioned German opponent had already gone to two weeks of the Games in Amsterdam.

  • The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children's Picturebooks
    Strides Toward Equality: The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children’s Picturebooks Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rebekah May Bruce, M.A. Graduate Program in Education: Teaching and Learning The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee: Michelle Ann Abate, Advisor Patricia Enciso Ruth Lowery Alia Dietsch Copyright by Rebekah May Bruce 2018 Abstract This dissertation examines nine narrative non-fiction picturebooks about Black American female athletes. Contextualized within the history of children’s literature and American sport as inequitable institutions, this project highlights texts that provide insights into the past and present dominant cultural perceptions of Black female athletes. I begin by discussing an eighteen-month ethnographic study conducted with racially minoritized middle school girls where participants analyzed picturebooks about Black female athletes. This chapter recognizes Black girls as readers and intellectuals, as well as highlights how this project serves as an example of a white scholar conducting crossover scholarship. Throughout the remaining chapters, I rely on cultural studies, critical race theory, visual theory, Black feminist theory, and Marxist theory to provide critical textual and visual analysis of the focal picturebooks. Applying these methodologies, I analyze the authors and illustrators’ representations of gender, race, and class. Chapter Two discusses the ways in which the portrayals of track star Wilma Rudolph in Wilma Unlimited and The Quickest Kid in Clarksville demonstrate shifting cultural understandings of Black female athletes. Chapter Three argues that Nothing but Trouble and Playing to Win draw on stereotypes of Black Americans as “deviant” in order to construe tennis player Althea Gibson as a “wild child.” Chapter Four discusses the role of family support in the representations of Alice Coachman in Queen of the Track and Touch the Sky.

  • Introduction
    introduCtion A misty rain fell on the spectators gathered at Wembley Stadium in London, England, but the crowd was still strong at 60,000. It was the final day of track and field competition for the XIV Olympiad. Dusk was quickly approaching, but the women’s high jump competition was still underway. Two athletes remained, an American by the name of Alice Coachman and the British, hometown favorite, Dorothy Tyler. With an Olympic gold medal on the line, both athletes seemed content to remain all night, if necessary, as they continued to match each other at height after height. But then at 5 ´6½˝, neither one cleared the bar. The audience waited in the darkening drizzle while the judges conferred to determine who would be crowned the new Olympic champion. Finally, the judges ruled that one of the two athletes had indeed edged out the other through fewer missed attempts on previous heights. Alice Coachman had just become the first African American woman to win an Olympic gold 1 medal. Her leap of 5 ´6 ⁄8˝ on that August evening in 1948 set new Olympic and American records for the women’s high jump. The win cul - minated a virtually unparalleled ten-year career in which she amassed an athletic record of thirty-six track and field national championships— twenty-six individual and ten team titles. From 1939, when she first won the national championship for the high jump at the age of sixteen, she never surrendered it; a new champion came only after her retirement at the conclusion of the Olympics.
