Source : Bibliothèque du CIO / IOC Library 176 In the absence of the three selected half-backs, and with a goalkeeper who was occasionally brilliant but generally most indifferent, this eleven proved to be even weaker in defence than the second team. Ihe forwards were not bad individually, but had little idea of combination, and passed much too hard. Nor did the half-backs know how to feed them, so that they never had a chance of carrying out a serious attack, although they often took the ball'into Danish quarters. As a full back Wibaut had many strong points, and could kick well. 1 he match was merely a re­ petition of Denmark v. France (B), with the exception that the French goalkeeper was greatly inferior to Desrousseaux, and that the Danish defence, which had not been tested on Monday, was found to be sadly wanting. In both matches the Frenchmen, particularly the backs and half-backs, were by far too much given to waiting on an opponent who had the ball instead of going for him. Of the actual play there is little to be said. Denmark at once attacked, and in about five minutes Nielsen scored three goals. Then for the first time ï ranee became aggressive, but although the two Danish backs and the goalkeeper each made a bad mistake which ought to have proved fatal, the trench forwards made no attempt whatever to seize their chances. Another bad mistake by one of GYMNASTICS.—DISPLAY BY THE DANISH LADIES. the Danish backs had not so fortunate an ending for his side, for Sartorius, coming clear, and running on without hesitation, shot well and at the right time, and gave the Frenchmen their only goal.

In the second half the Frenchmen occasionally made inroads into Danish territory, but could never push their attacks home, while goals were scored for Denmark by Nielsen (six), Wolffhagen (four), and N.

  • Issue 82 – August 2018 Chairman’S Column
    THE TIGER Remembering Pierre Vandenbraambussche, Founder of the Last Post Association, Menin Gate, Ypres, 5th July 2018 THE NEWSLETTER OF THE LEICESTERSHIRE & RUTLAND BRANCH OF THE WESTERN FRONT ASSOCIATION ISSUE 82 – AUGUST 2018 CHAIRMAN’S COLUMN Welcome again, Ladies and Gentlemen, to the latest edition of The Tiger. Any readers who enjoyed the tennis displayed in the recent Wimbledon Championships may be interested in the following piece from the archives of The Times, relating to a match played during the Roehampton Tournament of April 1919: Captain Hope Crisp, lost a leg in battle. He is determined to keep up golf and lawn tennis and is playing in the Gentlemen’s Doubles and Mixed Doubles. It was interesting to see how he managed. He is a strong volleyer, and naturally half volleys many balls which a two- legged player would drive. The artificial limb is the right, accordingly service is fairly easy. When there is no hurry, he walks, with very fair speed, approaching a run. At other times he hops. His cheerful temperament makes the game a real pleasure to himself and others. Six years earlier, Crisp had been a Wimbledon Champion, claiming the first ever Mixed Doubles Title with his partner, Agnes Tuckey. This victory was marred by an eye injury to one of their opponents, Ethel Captain Hope Crisp Thomson Larcombe whose subsequent retirement conceded the match to Crisp and Tuckey. In 1914 the defending Champions would reach the semi-final stage before being eliminated. Pre-war, Crisp had been Captain of the Cambridge University tennis team between 1911 and 1913 and at the outbreak of War, joined the Honorable Artillery Company before being commissioned into the 3rd Battalion of the Duke of Wellington’s (West Riding) Regiment.

  • Műkorcsolya Világversenyek Magyarországon
    MŰKORCSOLYA VILÁGVERSENYEK MAGYARORSZÁGON Ez idáig tizenötször rendeztek Magyarországon műkorcsolya világversenyt. - 5 alkalommal világbajnokságot, - 7 alkalommal Európa-bajnokságot és - 3 alkalommal Junior világbajnokságot Nézzük, hogyan is kezdődött. 1895. január 27. FÉRFI EB Az első kontinensbajnokságot a Budapesti Korcsolyázó Egylet megalakulásának 25. évfordulója alkalmából nagyszabású jubileumi ünnepségek keretében rendezték meg 1895. január 27-én a Városligetben, akkor még csak a férfiak részére. Mind a délelőtti iskolagyakorlatokban, mind a délutáni, öt percig tartó, szabad választás szerinti korcsolyázásban Földváry Tibor lett valamennyi bírónál a győztes, ezzel megszerezte a magyar sport első Európa-bajnoki címét. Második a későbbi háromszoros világbajnok osztrák Gustav Hügel lett. A harmadik helyen pedig az a német Gilbert Fuchs végzett, aki 12 évvel később ugyanitt, a 13. Európa-bajnokságon másodikként zárt. Hajós Alfréd, az első magyar olimpiai bajnok visszaemlékezésében így írt erről a napról: „Csikorgó hideg volt, de anyám tilalma ellenére elszöktem otthonról. Jóval a verseny kezdete előtt az épülő híd pillérein a legjobb helyet biztosítottam magamnak. Dideregve vártam a versenyt, de azután földöntúli boldogságot éreztem akkor, amikor Földváry diadalmaskodott. S amikor győzelme tiszteletére felcsendült a Himnusz, szemeim könnyeztek, s szívemben egy ellenálhatatlan vágy vert gyökeret: elérni azt a csúcsot, amelyre Földváry feljutott. Ideálom lett ő! Későbbi sportkarrieremre ez a nagy siker döntő hatással volt…” 1909. január

  • Figure Skating and the Anthropology of Dance: the Case of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin
    Andrée Grau: Figure Skating and the Anthropology of Dance: The Case of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin Figure Skating and the Anthropology of Dance: The Case of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin Andrée Grau Roehampton University, [email protected] Abstract In this paper, I address a number of topics relevant to anthropology generally and to the anthropology of dance specifically. I consider issues of classification and taxonomies; of interculturalism and transnationalism; of representation, exoticisation and internalised racism. I examine dance, hierarchies and discrimination, and discuss boundaries between dance and non-dance. For example, dance scholars, with a few exceptions, rarely write about figure skating, although it is cognate to Western theatre dance genres, especially ballet. Figure skating is sport, even in its ice dancing incarnation, whilst dance is art even in its ballet competition incarnations. I use as a case study the Russian skaters Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin, who choreographed an ‘Australian Aboriginal Dance’ for their original routine for the 2010 European skating championships and Olympics. This offended Aboriginal elders who made a complaint to the Russian ambassador. I examine the controversy around the routine, how it was reported in the press and how the audience responded in Internet forums, focusing especially on the way Australian Aborigines con- tinue to be portrayed as stone age in popular media. KEY WORDS: aesthetics, Australian Aborigines, ballet, Internet forums, dance, ice ska- ting, taxonomies Introduction One of the premises of the anthropology of dance, is that the term ‘dance’ is problematic as it carries preconceptions of what this activity engages with, which is rooted into a Western way of understanding the body in space and time, situating it in a particular relationship to a soundscape.

    AN ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL ATHLETIC COMPETITION WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO FIGURE SKATING > DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Beverly Mae Labrecque, B.S,» M,A, * * * * # The Ohio State University 1972 Approved by * f / Adviser tyspartraent of Ph Education INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation 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.
