    GAJDOŠ A. SHORT HISTORICAL NOTES XVI Vol. 11 Issue 3: 355-557 SHORT HISTORICAL NOTES XVI Anton Gajdoš, Bratislava, Slovakia & Ivan Čuk, Faculty of Sport, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia Ph.D. Anton Gajdoš born on 1.6.1940 in Dubriniči (today Ukraine) lives most of his life in Bratislava (ex TCH, nowadays SVK). He comes from gymnastics family (his brother Pavel have world championship medals) and he devoted his life to gymnastics. His last achievement is establishment of Narodna encyklopedia športu Slovenska (www.sportency.sk). Among his passion is collecting photos and signatures of gymnasts. As we tend to forget old champions and important gymnasts, judges and coaches, we decided to publish part of his archive under title Short historical notes. All information on these pages is from Anton’s archives and collected through years. MIROSLAV CERAR (October, 28 1939 Ljubljana, Slovenia) Miroslav Cerar was born to father Ivan (navy officer) and mother Pavla (housekeeper and seamstress). In 1947 he started with gymnastics at TVD Partizan Narodni dom (the first Slovene gymnastics club, established in 1863). His development was extremely fast due to his excellent physical preparation, as he was very flexible and strong. He was between 1958 and 1970 the best gymnast on pommel horse, with great achievements also on other apparatus. He was famous for his scissors and excellent double leg circles, which allowed him to perform Russian circles on pommels.

  • ^Y SPORTS and OLYMPICS
    ^y Number 7 6c 8 March & April 1969 Volume 7 MATCHBOX LABELS - Jim Hughes - Recently a set of 120 Hungarian 'matchbox labels' came into my possession which portray many of the Modern Olympic Medalists. These labels are printed in blue and are numbered from 1-120, inscribed with the initials "M S Z" which I am told stands for "Magyar SrovetBeg" (Hungarian Federation) with each label printed with a /+0f value, on white paper measuring 3/+ x 50mm. I believe these labels were issued in I960, but I have as yet been unable to learn the complete atory behind them, however it is doubtful that they were issued for fund raising purposes. Perhaps some of our members can shed more light on this set as well as other Hungarian matchbox labels which I have just learned do exist. I am told these labels are printed in various colors, and on various colored paper featuring athletes and views of the Rome Olympics. If any of our members have them I would like to borrow or purchase them, so that the data on them can be recorded here. This set of matchbox labels from Hungary features a vivid history of the Modern Olympic Games from the First International Olympic Committee session of 189<+ in Paris (on No. t\) down to the clos­ ing ceremonies in Rone (No. 120) where the scoreboard is lit up with the word TOKYO. Following is a list of the Olympic Medalists pictured on this set of Hungarian matchbox labels, in alphabetical order. Names preceded by an («) were previously listed and their records can be found in the first section of this series.
