You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

She is the most famous female swimmer of Roman legend. 216 A.D. - The Baths of Caracalla, regarded as the greatest architectural and engineering feat of the Roman Empire and the largest bathing/swimming complex ever built opens. Swimming in the public bath houses was as much a part of Roman life as drinking wine. At first, bathing was segregated by gender, with no mixed male and female bathing, but by the mid second century, men and women bathed together in the nude, which lead to the baths becoming notorious for sexual activities. 600 A.D. - With the gothic conquest of Rome and the destruction of the Aquaducts that supplied water to the public baths, the baths close. Soon bathing and nudity are associated with paganism and be- come regarded as sinful activities by the Roman Church. 1200’s - Thinking it might be a useful skill, European sailors relearn to swim and when they do it, it is in the nude. Women, as the gatekeepers of public morality don’t swim because they have no acceptable swimming garments.

  • Olympics a Sleeker Swimsuit
    CHAPTER FIVE WOMEN ENTER THE Olympics A Sleeker Swimsuit SO FAR WE HAVE LOOKED AT THE LONG, SLOW GROWTH OF WOMEN’S involvement in sporting activities. Clothes certainly played their part. But nowhere is their influence more evident than in the Olympic Games. And nowhere else can we see quite so clearly the position of women at the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth, no matter what the trends of the previous half century might suggest. Anyone living today within reach of TV knows how important new developments in tex- tile and clothing designs are for the success of athletes competing in the Games. We saw in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City the skin- tight racing suits worn by men and women alike, sleek and aerodynamic, capable of shaving precious milliseconds off time. That they enhanced beautiful bodies was almost an afterthought, although I’m sure no one who watched failed to enjoy that aspect of the new designs. We have taken tech- nological advances and used them to serve speed as their products wrap bodies in garments that would have been unthinkable even a generation ago.1 Hand in hand with this development has been the equally stunning acceptance of women as competitors, as athletes. Although women’s com- petition became a media event as early as the 1996 Summer Games, when women were hailed as the stars who would outshine the men, it took a cen- tury to achieve this equality.2 84 WOMEN ENTER THE OLYMPICS In the beginning, in keeping with the ancient Greek tradition, the modern Olympic Games were all male.

'SiSiSKiaiiSililiffiililiRIili Number 4 March - April 1986 Volume 24 SPEED SKATING WEEK 1975 — AND IT3 DEVELOPMENTS by Harry C. Henrlksen Every four years the world becomes aware of speed skat­ ing, America's most productive medal producer in the Winter Games. Erik Helden's outstanding five gold medal performance at Lake Placid (I960) was a highlight of the outstanding achievements of our fantastic skaters. The USA's medal production Is even more remarkable, since Olympic (or metric) speed Bkating is not the most popular form of ice racing practiced by the thousands of American youngsters who skate on 'long blades." Olympic skating takes place outdoors on a large 400 meter oval. Two competitors are paired In each race. In Olympic or World Competition, where a total of fifty of the world's finest skaters may compete, the winners are chosen on the fastest times skated.It Is not unlikely that the gold and silver medalists could come from the same pairing. Even though a skater was second in his pairing, his time could be second best in the competition, and earn him the silver medal. American skating, from the time a youngster puts on his first pair of skates until he reaches his late teens, has been what we call "pack-style skating." This exciting form of racing is similar to track. Six to eight skaters start on the line in heats, and are advanced to semi-finals or finals on the basis of placement In their races.

    MODERN PENTATHLON. PREPARATORY WORK OF THE COMMITTEE. EFEE FENCING, MODERN PENTATHLON n the pr0p0Sai 0f jts President, the International ) < Olympic Committee decided that, in the programme : I I /"j ••••. \ \ j of the Fifth Olympiad which was to be held in 1 I I V I. /j i| Stockholm in 1912, there should be placed a new .> \\. yy competition — the Modern Pentathlon — comprising the 1.™ ."'.Jfollowing events: athletics, fencing, riding, swimming and shooting. This decision was received with the greatest interest by the Swed­ ish Olympic Committee which took its first steps for the organization of the competition, as early as the autumn of 1910. This was no easy matter, however, for there was nothing to go by as re­ gards the new event as there was in the case of the other com­ petitions. In determining the five branches of sport that were to make up the Modern Pentathlon, the Swedish Olympic Committee had the following points in view: the five events ought to be such as would test the endurance, resolution, presence of mind, intrepidity, agility and strength of those taking part in the competition, while, in drawing up the detailed programme, it was necessary to have all the events of equivalent value, in order to make the Modern Penta­ thlon a competition of really all-round importance. As regards the shooting, which, of course, was not any test of physical strength, it was necessary to demand a corresponding degree of skill in that branch, in order to make it equivalent to each of the other iour events.
