Some of the sportspersons may be living outside their countries.] United Nations, New York 10017 INTRODUCTION The international campaign against apartheid sport continued to make progress during 1987. In response, South Africa has embarked on a massive exercise to lure well-known athletes from overseas to compete there by offering them substantial sums of money. Although many countries tightened their regulations in regard to these exchanges in 1987, South Africa continued its efforts to mitigate the effects of the boycott. It is estimated that South Africa spends approximately $US 100 million annually to promote international sports exchanges and subsidize sports organizations which endorse government policies. Commercial'houses which sponsor any event involving overseas participants are refunded 90 per cent of their gross outlay through tax rebates. Thus, South Africa devotes large sums of money to attract overseas players. With the exception of some top golfers and tennis players and a few others, the calibre of players participating in South Africa has been mediocre.

  • Art of the Draw
    The Art of the Draw boxing by don cogswell Lewis-Tyson I (!) has now taken its place among boxing’s great promotional achievements, special-special division, (it never hurts to utilize Orwell in these double-strange times), the one at the very top of box- ing’s promotional hocus-pocus emporium, at ease and comfort with the likes of Dempsey-Carpentier, although in this more recent “contest” the beast was slain and not the hero. The opportunity, in the words of Arnold Glasgow, to see “the past returning through another gate” proved both pugilistically impossible, and promotionally irresistible, to those streaming into this fandango’s ppv Big Top. While setting new monetary returns , and plumbing familiar fiduciary lows, this plodding denouement set to the tune of a golden oldie (with a Zoloft remix) broke no new ground in the fields of promotional sleight-of-hand. For practitioners of nostalgia as balm in recasting the world’s wrongs, two partners of not-so-long-ago piloted a short (in number of bouts, near its end it seemed interminable), crownless career into pride of place among the carnies, barkers and pitchmen, in the Art of the Draw. Gerry Cooney’s career was piloted by Mike Jones and Dennis Rappaport. Dubbed the Wacko Twins, Mike and Dennis comported themselves like Hollywood Kamikaze pilot parodies but their effectiveness was more akin to those of the sons of the Rising Sun at Pearl. They scored a number of direct hits among the prevailing powers of box- iana. Cooney’s career began conventionally enough, a busy schedule against prospects, suspects and known non-vio- lent offenders.

El boxeo, desde principios del siglo XX, ha seducido a periodistas de reconocido prestigio, convirtiéndolo en un territorio propicio para la práctica de un periodismo literario en el que el boxeo, entendida como la mejor metáfora de la vida, se erige como excusa para exhibir el potencial del periodista. El estudio constará de una aproximación teórica al género, así como de un análisis de caso sobre las crónicas del periodista, poeta y escritor Manuel Alcántara, más concretamente en su etapa en el diario MARCA. Palabras clave: Boxeo, periodismo deportivo, crónica, figuras retóricas, lenguaje agonístico, Manuel Alcántara. Abstract This project aims to show the speech construction of the boxing chronicle, in order to expose which linguistic mechanisms are put at the service of the representative and informative function of the sports chronicle. Boxing, since the beginning of the 20th century, has seduced prestigious journalists, making it a favorable territory for the practice of literary journalism in which boxing, understood as the best metaphor of life, stands as an excuse to exhibit the potential of the journalist.
