4 16 SPORTS. THE SPRINGFIELD UNION, SPRINGFIELD, SATURDAY, JANUARY, 31, 1948" SPORTS Fussing, Feuding Part Of Olympic Contests Present Hockey Squabble Recalls Eleanor Holm, Paavo Nurmi Incidents of Other, Years By Whitney Martin lit necessary to issue a general warn- might as well make feudin' CAP) fusNew York, Jan. 30 sin' officially a part of the Olympic program. They never seem to get along without it. The prolonged dispute over which team if any, should represent this country in the ice hockey competition is just a resumption of disputes down through the years.
For an event is supposed to represent tne ultra -ultra in harmony and goodwill and sportsmanship the Olympic games certainly turn up some queer situations. Hockey was the cause of one of the minor disputes of the 1936 games. It stems that on the eve of the competition the International Ice Hockey Federation upheld a Canadian protest against two Canadian-trained players competing on the British team. The Britons grumbled more than a little, and Canada finally withdrew its protest and allowed the two athletes to compete. Incidentally, they starred for the British team as it defeated the Canadians.
The big hullabaloo of the 1936 games was the dropping of Eleanor Holm Jarrett from the U. S. swimming team over violation of training rules. The action climaxed a rather stormy voyage on which Avery Brundage felt the athletes as to their The 1932 games had their share of finger-pointing and unsavory incidents, chief of which was the barring of Paavo Nurmi less than three days before he was to run at Los Angeles. The IAAF rejected Nurmi's entry on the grounds he had received more than expenses on a barnstorming of Europe, and specifically Germany.
The Finnish delegation blew its top over the action, and seriously considered withdrawing from all competition. It didn't. The 1932 difficulties had started at the winter games at Lake Placid when a spirited controversy arose over U.S. skating style and tactics after Jack Shea had won the 1500-meter event. Another touch of Olympic harmony and good- will was added when the Brazilian water polo team rioted in a dispute with the Hungarian referce.
The water-logged Brasilians put on a real tank act that time. So the current squabble is by no means unique in Olympic history. The fans call understand the action of a customer who dozed off during a wrestling match, awakened two hours later and saw two beefy gents tugging and wheezing in the ring. Grabbing his hat and heading for the exit he muttered: "This is where I came in."
