FITTEST FOOTBALLERS
ON EARTH
A great many scribes, and some
sports leaders who ought to knoW'
better^ have spent a f air • deal .oi
the year speculating on whether the
''East" wiU gain more titles than
the, "West" meaniiig\the USSR or
the USA. The International Olymr
pic Committee: has alrea^y said ali
that needs to be said on how far
this strays from ^the aims and ideals
of the Games. Just to be on the
safe side I'll begin witl]i an event
Avhere the two giants of modern
sport are in no danger; of meeting.
Here and now I put my money on
the Russians to win the football
title.
' At the beginning of 1956 I would
have taken reigning champions
Hurigary but they are stillrecover-ing
from that nigthmare period of
defeat§ begun by Czechoslbvaki^ In
Budapest. Thejr, are stUl a force
to reckon with but only a return to
the sweet rhythm of the Old Magyar
Magic urouldbegoodenöugh for the
Russians or the Yugoslavs. Led
by Vukas, probably the best inside
fonvard in the tournament the
Yugoslavs have arnice. blend of
youth and ' experience. Although
they score on; initiative and indivi-duality.
they; can nevermatch' the
Soviet side in speed and staminai
The Russians are the fittest footbal-lers
on earth- But they'are not on­ly
?fast, they can ali master the ball
perfectly iand never waste a pass
They play brilliant soccer at top
speed for ninety minutes. • Barring
accidents 1 just don't see any team
tobeat them., If however, you want
an outsider keep your eye on Bulr
garia. , • '
MAN WHO OUGHT TO
KNOW ZATOPEKI
It's the safest of safe things to
predict that the 5,000 m, ought to
be the race of the century, but you
are as likely to pick the kinner by
the pröverbial pin than by compär-jng
times. Almost every leading
contender has held the -world'record
for the distance at least once,v wlth
the excepGon of Ausfralia*s own
l^ndy. If, as has been, hinted, he
goes for this'race instead, of the
1,500 m; great mifer tbough he is,
I doubt if he can stay^ this distance
witH his .own countryman ;Dave Ste^
phens. Sandor Ibaios lias to come
into the reckoning at'every;distancc:
from 1,500 m, up to the 10,000 m.
On his . record-shaftering" perfor-mainces
this year he could «rellV
the Nurmi of the Olympics,
yei I still have a 'doubt ii seems
tö me that he is a niucb .better man
against the dock than an opiHmetit
In my opinion, Jerzey Cttrpndk
sbowed in Warsaw last year that
Sandor has a weak spot in a Ugbt
flnish^vhere nerVe and' temperal-menft
count ^ I hppe I am .vrrohg
' because he has ali the' other' qiiali-ties
of ä^truly great Champion.
' OEärlier this year we headlined
'Britain's Gordon Pirie aä the "Gon
founder of- Critics". . How' right
that title vas. Not so many moons
ago his detractors.were saying ''bi£f
head" was:finishedi'but.he haseon-founded
them again and justified
his tr^ing methods by a sbrifes ot
record'runs. I fgo along with the
mau who ought to know,: Zatope^k.
He has always contended that Pirie
was a poteiitial World beaterA^fs an
interesting fact that both Stephens
and Pirie owe a great deal of: their
amazing prögress to the helpvand
advice ot^mile and I expect^o see
it pay the final dividendswith> Pirie
just edging home from Stephens.
You may wonder wby I have not
mentioned' the name of Vladimir
Kuts.. Frankly I think the Soviet
star will reserve his big effort for
the :10,000-m. Readers:may re'call
that In January Ave were able 1^, t^ll
the World that Iharos would go. for
the 10,000 m. ^e had nevertackleu
the distance:publicly untilv^^jily
when he took Zatopek's recqrid,'jn
his stride: At Melbourne ttiejjssue
should lie between Ihäros and Kuis.
Frankly it's a toss up, with a slight
edge to Iharos.
iyORLD'S GREATEST
ALL-ROUNDER
I see no-reason to suppose that
the United States supremäcy in
Short distance events will be seri-ously
threatened... Sprinters Dave
Sime and Lou Jones are'as goodias
wearing gold medals now but if you
want a east Iron' certainty from the
States, it is surely Raefer Johnson.)
At 20 this,;young,Negro is undouln
tedly the greatest allround athlete'
of ali times. He is master in the
high jump, high and low hurdles
and among his best performances in
other events-jndude^ a 100 ni^^inr
10.5 and in ;1955 was the worid's
best 220 yds.:;hurdler-witha'time
of 22.9 sees , He's a cert for the der
cathlon. , ;>. ..
You may ha\^e noted that so far I
have not forcast a single victory
for the host country, s Don'tr think
I'ra not of the opinion they. will
take medals. In swimming it is
impossible to imagine Australia /aU-ing
to record victories, but. which
of their many Stars will bring home
the goods I hesitate to say»; ri;he
competition in record breaking bet:
ween Australia^ Japan, Holland and
the USA has been phenon^enat. 1
may be wrong, but it seems to me
they have ali forced > the pace. too
hard and too early. - Hungary ;on
the'other hand has tak^n her time
in bringing: her crop of youögand
Old Stars to peak forra and I fancy
this will pay off witb some sur-prises."

Finland Has M i l e r s , T o o
BY HELGE NYGREN
(Finlandia Pictorift)
;:V'-The mile calls for tenacity; speed,
cool calculation, determination and,
ahove ali, fighting spirit and streng-th<.:
No less are the requirements of
the European mile, the l,500~metres
distance.
The most famousv Finn in /whom
ali these qualities were personified
was Paavo Ndrml, the "king of
riinners"; In 1924 he was the. World
Champion in the 1,500 m. his time
being 3.52,6. The same' year he
wö&' the OlympicGbld Medal ior
the event, and.fouryears later his
example was followed by another
Finn, Harri Larva. Then for a good
twenty: years,: Finland ceased to f i-gii^
e in the contending class. ' '

youngstersfnow being turned out by
the': running schools have begun to

those qualities listed above, and
they use them to climb to higher
AN AUSSIE AGAINST
THE FIELD
There is one Aussie however* to
back against the field.Despite the
cnormously strong hand the Italians
will show in cycling, ilough John
Tressider is my man for the i sprint
title. GuiseppeOgnawhb beathim
in the last world chamiiionships will
me there, but on his home track
Tressider should tum;the tables. If
Ogna goes for the time trials he
should win from compatriot Lean-dro
Fagin. • . ^ ^
Some forecasts in short: Sidlo of
Poland to out-throw the lot witb the
javelin; Krivonosov of the^USSR
to 'hammer" ali opposition ;^Roger
Moens to bring Belgium her only
medal by taklng the 800 m.; Dolezal
of Czechoslovakia to beat^everyone
of the ten walkers placed above' in
World lists at the moment and the
Yugoslavs to: upset the water works
by beating the Hungarians -for the
water:polo title; finally'two absolu-te^
certainties — the USA to waltz

to keep the hocke;^ title she has

Soviet etudents, playing host to n
group of Canadian students this sum­mer,
:warmly, tirged: the group 'to: try:
to arrange a Canadian tour for a
similar delegation from the UJ3JSA.
Kathy Archibald, Miss Canada of
1953, was one of the group. "Every-;
where: we went they kept asklng us
whether it vould be posslfole for a
group of theh-students to come here
on a Lsbnllar: tour,'' she said during
a stopover in Toronto oir her: way
to Kelowna,B.C., and the University
of British Columbia.
iMiss Archibald, with a group of
nine atudents on a World University
tourj wfaich' included Czechoslovakia
and the Soviet Union, said that Sov­iet
Btudents treated "^them witli great
hospitality. The only tiiing that the
student group regretted was that be­cause
of 'the language barrler '^we
had no contact wlth the man on the

With her at Toronto Union Statjon,
were "other Canadian members of a

It would be idie to pretend that
one of the main aimiä of tt\p Finnish
track and field world Is abytblng;
but the winnlng of at least one me­dal
in Melbourne on Saturday,: De-cember
1,. 1956.' That Is the day
on which the. finals of the mlle will
beryn.Supposing that Finland ^^t-tains
her ambition,, the name, ,ot
the Finn to dojt isjstill unknown.
There are at least four fairly. even
ly-matchäd.contenders ior- the ho*:
nor of representing their country
intheeyenl. ' "
' It is the Amerlcans who said that
the "mile is the longest short-dls^
tance race"/ 'This is very true of
the mlle today,'but it is asentiment
that 'the Finns would not subscriba
to until the 1950^8 and the'new fie*
.nerationöf milörs appeared on the
,scene. ,By the end-of the 1940>
.only tw,o Finnish häd covered 1,500
metres invless than '3.50,0 mihutes;
But now 12 have t}ettered this time
and the men, who head the Flndlsb
iistare SO good tiiat only Xour other
countrles \ Htingary, ,3weden,
England and Germanyhave pro-duced
men capable of a better
time; ' ,
Let us have a look at the men in
Finland in,this event. There is no
question of tAe emergence of a new
type of runner,' Simply, the men
are physically, strong and capable
of producing a spurt at the end of
a fast race. It is this last point that
is novel, for Finns. Erlier it was
not one of the strong points of Fin­nish
runners that; they< could change
their rythym on the home straight
The following are presently the
leading Finnish milers: Olavi Sai
sola (22 yrs.) Olavi Vuorisalo (23),
Olavi Salonen (^) Denis Johansson
(28) and Jorma Kakko (26).
By occupation the best milers are
intellectual workers.
Qf this list, Finland's. strongest
hope is Olavi Salsola, a student of
technology. He has the following
Finnish records to his credit: 800
metres 1.49,1; 880 metres 1.49,7;
1,000 metres 2,21,5; 1,500 metres
3.42,0; mile 4:03,0. Several experts
among them Denis i Johansson whd
has competed in two Olympics and
has run in the United States and
Australia, are of the opinion, that
Salsola is perhaps the most: talen
ted of the world's milers today.
They consider that, givenldeal con-ditions,
a 3.40.0 time is weU within
his capabilities for the l;S00,meter8.
Strong as the bettlng on Salsola,
he has frequently had to give best
to Olavi Vuorisalo, a postman; This
man!s forte is his strong final spurt.
Practically a newcomer is Olavi
Salonen, and ytft he is recköncfd ta
be a iuture Nurmi. '
The 1956 mile will.attract more
attention and interest than any ever,
run before. It is not only that the
tijhe may well be the lastest ever.
The competition will be the greatest
ever^ not a mere two or three fa-vorites
but a good ten likely candir
dates. More; they will be men from
ali over the world. It is quite on;
the cards that Finland will send
three milers to Melbourne.
OBVIOUSLY!
During the histo^ lesson the tea-cher
pointed out to the class that
a surname often indicated the4rade
of the ancestors of those Wbo bore
the name. He gave the'obvlously
simple exämples of;Smith,'Taylor
and Baker.; Then lie qviestimied one
of the boys: '!Wbat were.your. an­cestors,
Webb?" ' '
