  • COLORADO GOVERNORS Stephen Mcnichols
    COLORADO GOVERNORS Stephen McNichols Scope and Content Note The Governor Stephen McNichols collection comprises approximately 230 cubic feet of material spanning his term as governor from 1957-1963. The collection is described down to the file folder level. Major series in the collection include correspondence; the Executive Record; newsclippings and other material concerning public relations; photographs; speeches and messages; proclamations; and reports. Correspondence makes up the bulk of the collection. Governor McNichols' entire administration is well documented through the 230 cubic feet of records in custody at the Colorado State Archives. The strengths of the collection include documentation concerning water reclamation, highway building, and legislative topics. There is also material concerning different aspects of the Cold War and the domestic response to it including foreign policy, nuclear strategy, civil defense, and "subversive" activities by communist sympathizers. Atomic energy development in Colorado is also well documented. Biography Stephen Lucid Robert McNichols, Colorado's Democrat Governor from 1957 to 1963, was born in Denver on March 7, 1914. McNichols' father William H. McNichols, Denver's well-respected auditor for over thirty years, was undoubtedly influential in steering his two sons Bill and Stephen toward their success in state politics. Stephen McNichols graduated from East Denver High School and Regis College to pursue a law degree from Catholic University in Washington. After graduating in 1939 he joined the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a field officer in Baltimore and Boston.

Scott Kretchmar Professor of Exercise and Sport Science Co-Chair of Committtee Jaime Schultz Associate Professor of Kinesiology Peter Hopsicker Associate Professor of Kinesiology Lori D. Ginzberg Professor of History and Women’s Studies Stephen Piazza Professor of Kinesiology Graduate Program Director *Signature are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT On May 12, 1970, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) awarded Denver, Colorado, the 1976 winter Olympic games. About two and half years later, on November 7, 1972, Colorado citizens voted by a three to two margin to make it a violation of Colorado’s constitution for state funds to be allocated toward the event. Colorado politicians and business leaders had spent years planning, campaigning, and traveling the globe to earn the right to host the winter sports festival. Nevertheless, with funding suddenly inaccessible, Denver’s Olympic planners were forced to rescind their invitation to “the youth of the world,” as Olympic hosts traditionally declared every four years. This dissertation delves into the political controversies surrounding the 1976 Denver winter Olympic games. Colorado’s decision to banish the Olympics was the product of a change in how Coloradans viewed economic growth, combined with broadened understandings of the political power of citizenship.
