Sport and Racial Discrimination in Colonial Zimbabwe: a Reanalysis Reassessing the Myth of Multiracial Sport in Rhodesia Followi
Sport and Racial Discrimination in Colonial Zimbabwe: A Reanalysis Reassessing the Myth of Multiracial Sport in Rhodesia Following the exclusion of South Africa from international sporting events because of strict racial segregation on the playing field in the late 1960s, the anti-apartheid movement focused on Rhodesia, a white minority-ruled country in south-central Africa that also had a tradition of racial discrimination. Sport in Rhodesia was never sharply segregated by law as in apartheid South Africa, and a strong narrative developed both in Rhodesia and in the international press that Rhodesian sport was multiracial and should not be punished as South African sport had been.1 The minority white settler population fervently believed segregation in Rhodesia was never as insidious or complete as segregation in South Africa.2 However, racial discrimination in sport still did take place in Rhodesian sport in less overt ways, as sport was a sphere of contested control for much of the colonial period of Southern Rhodesia and then the period of unilateral independence after the white settler minority seceded from the British Empire in 1965. The development of sport in majority-ruled Zimbabwe after 1980 bore a strong imprint of the racialization of sport in colonial Rhodesia. Sporting life in Rhodesia was especially vibrant as the white settler community fully participated in a sporting culture that could rival Britain itself. Sport was an important tool of social acculturation and identity-formation among white settlers themselves, but it also proved to be a tool of social control over the black African population. British colonizers viewed sport as a ‘civilizing’ device to teach important lessons of hygiene and fitness in a manner strictly controlled by the white state.3 However, because of the importance sport held to the white settler minority, it remained a site of social protest and incomplete domination, and some black African autonomy survived in association football, athletics, and other sports. -

La competición femenina tuvo desde el principio el liderazgo de María Guadalupe Sánchez quien pasó los 5 Km al frente con 24:10 seguida a escasas cen- tésimas por su compatriota Victoria Pa- lacios y a nueve segundos por Mara Ibáñez, del equipo ¨B¨ de México que no confrontaba directamente por las meda- llas en la Copa, pero sí por la clasificación a los Juegos olímpicos, y la cubana Cruz Vera quien fue una grata revelación. Un poco más atrás las seguían las nor- teamericanas Armenta y Rohl. Al cumplirse la mitad de la prueba Ibáñez se encontraba en la primera colocación, 47:43 seguida de Sánchez, 47:45 y Palacios, 47:58.

Gustavo Sainz* an Analysis Of
RICE UNIVERSITY GUSTAVO SAINZ* AN ANALYSIS OF OBSESIVOS DIAS CIRCULARES by Dorothy Farrington Caram A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS Thesis directors signaturet Houston, Texas April, 1974 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze Obsesivos días circulares, the second novel written by the young Mexican novelist, Gustavo Sainz, while he was writer-in- residence at the State University of Iowa for the academic year, 1968-69. Gustavo Sainz has stated frequently in interviews that he wrote Obsesivos días circulares as a novel inten¬ ded for an "elite” type of reader and not for the general masses. This ‘'elite” reader is one who does not read novels solely for entertainment, but chiefly as an intel¬ lectual challenge) one who views the novel as an aesthetic object complete unto itself. In order to meet this intellectual challenge and to show how Sainz has structured his world, this investigation analyzes Obsesivos días circulares with particular attention to the structure of the narrator and the world content. The structure of the narrator in this contemporary novel is very complex despite the fact that at first view it would seem to present a first person dramatized narrator-protagon¬ ist. Sainz, being highly conversant with the techniques of Henry James, Virginia Woolf, William Faulkner, and his own mentor, James Joyce, has written a novel in which all the dialogues and descriptions are presented in streams of con¬ sciousness, in interior monologues, or in letters, with ample instances of flashback, automatic writing, montage, and oneiric descriptions. -

NOTES AND DOCUMENTS* NOTES AND DOCUMENTS* February 1977 Univrsiiy / Library SPORTS BOYCOTT IN THE I CAMPAIGN AGAINST APARTHEIDr /-Note: This issue contains a condensed version of an article by Mr. Lapchick, published in the Journal of Sort and Social Issues, Vol., No.l, 1976. Mr. Lapchick is the Executive Director of ARENA, the Institute for Sport and Social Analysis at Virginia Wesleyan College, Norfolk, U.S.A.

From the moment that the United States team refused to dip the American flag to King Edward VII at the opening ceremonies of the 1908 Olympic Games in London, politics has been inextricably linked with the Olympic Movement in particular and international sport in general. The most flagrant example of the politics of international sport is the case of South Africa. The controversy surrounding the participation of South African teams in international sport also marked the shift of major concern in the politics of international sport from ideology to a new factor: race and racism. This shift was, to a large extent, influenced by the rise of nonWestern nationalism in general, and of African nationalism in particular. The adamant refusal of the South African Government to permit integrated teams to represent their country, that is, the extension of apartheid into sport, has led to intensive global pressures and protests. In spite of those protests, South Africa was permitted to continue its international competiti)n until 1970 when it was dismissed from almost all of the international sports federations and, most importantly, from the Olympic Movement itself. -

The announcement was clearly designed to convince the international sports bodies that South Africa's policy had changed. Careful examination of his statement, however, led to the inevitable conclusion that the primary change was one of semantics. Instead of talking about multi-racial sport 9 Vorster talked about "multi-national sport." The policy based on the idea that South Africa is a country made up of several "nations" rather than several "racial groups". According to this policy, multi racial sport would not be allowed on the club, provincial or national levels. South African whites and blacks* could compete against each other only as individuals in "open international eventstt but not as members of an integrated South African team. Vorster made a distinction between "open international events" (such as the Davis Cup, the Olympics, and so on)and "normal international events." Thus, black South Africans could not compete against a British touring team: in order to qualify as an open international event 9 several nations would have to' compete. -
