It was mere annoying than funny at time but looking back now we find a certain degree of hilarity marked the end of the Olympic Games And of all things the laughs were provided by the sombre Russians When they were edged out on total points by United States athletes on the standard scoring system they promptly invented their own and proved that they were the winners It was so childish so obviously in the naive Russian mould of propaganda that at this distance its good for a chuckle And its our notion that the international importance of the Olympics as proving that any one country is physically better than another is just plain silly Ideally the Games arc competitions among individuals not between countries Some countries have these individual stars at various times some havent For popular consumption a newspaper score board is kept But triumph t necessarily represent a national superiority over the countries which didnt do so well This so were glad the United States won the mythical title For the difference between a Russian and an American overall points victory Is that the Soviet propa ganda machine would have made this a tremendous spring board for boasting the decadence of the imperialistic coun tries as compared with the virility of Stalins empire Am erica will merely boast its undeniably great athletes and attach no globular political significance to the outcome Superiority in running or jumping or throwing weights proves nothing as indicating one nation is more virile stronger than another If it did then would outrank all others for they sent to the Games the greatest athlete of all the man who scored the triple We suspect that Russia went into the Games to prove what the propaganda machines would label national superiority and they almost did it We suspect too that the Soviet mastermind would not have allowed a Muscovite team to enter unless they were considered loaded lest the cause of collectivism be set back by defeats on ath letic fields Thats the reason there developed that childish strata gem a rearrangenient of the scoring values to convince the folks at home that really won but was robbed by the moneybarons of Wall street Lets forget any national significance or racial superior ity that pointsvictory in the games might be taken to prove Our own Canada didnt get many points in the Olympics but we happen to think even so that Canada Is a very swell country in which we prefer to live In preference to all others even If we never score another Olympic triumph Vffotffon for by Toronto DISTILLERS LIMITED JACK POT JACK POT BINGO
