A new look planned
for 1976 Olympics
VARNA, Bulgaria (UPI) —
The 1976 Montreal Olympic
Games will have a new look.
There will be fewer events, fewer
medals and fewer athletes.
But even greater changes to the
Olympic movement will take
place during the next 12 months,
as a result of the Olympic
Congress and meeting of the
International Olympic Com
mittee (IOC) during the past
week, IOC President Lord
Killanin said today.
The IOC decided to trim the
summer games by 10 events and
to cut back the number of com
petitors in six sports during its
meeting but other changes — the
redefinition of amateurism and
the possible expansion of the
games over a wider geographical
area, will be tackled during the
coming months.
Killanin said the Congress — at
which the IOC listened to the
views of the 26 international
sports federations and 92 national
Olympic committees — ac
complished “a greater unity
between the three groups.”
At the Congress, the
federations made a strong bid for
more say in the running of the
Olympic Games and at one point,
Killanin admitted, seemed to
have taken the initiative from the
IOC.”
“I think we were on a slippery
rein for a while,” said Killanin.
“But we are no longer on some
Olympian cloud. Our feet are
firmly on the ground without our
heads, fortunately, being buried
in the golden sands of Varna.”
The IOC met after the Congress
and whether intentionally or not,
did not conform with the wishes
of the federations on many key
points. The federations asked for
a specific amateur rule to be
passed which the IOC said it
“was considering.”
The federations also came out
strongly in favor of spreading the
games throughout an entire
country but Killanin told a news
conference:
“The games should be
allocated to a city, in my personal
opinion, and that city could be
stretched into a zone. The basic
idea of a city is not wrong
provided you are given a good
deal of latitude,” said Killanin.
Football fans opt
for TV instead
NEW YORK (UPD—Close to
40.000 fans—the second highest
figure in the four-week National
Football League season—failed
to use their tickets to sold out
games Sunday.
There were seven sold-out
games Sunday and with at
tendance figures available for
six, 38,056 fans did not use their
tickets and presumably watched
on home television. The only
week which surpassed Sunday’s
figures in no-shows was the first
Sunday of the season when over
50.000 fans took advantage of
government legislation against
blacking out of sold-out home
games.
Miami’s no-shows led the
parade once more as 16,097 fans
stayed away as the Dolphins
routed the Jets 31-3 in sunny 80
degree weather. Nearly 50,000
persons who bought tickets have
stayed away from the Dolphins’
three home games so far, by far
the highest no-show figure in the
league.
The game between San
Francisco and the Falcons at
Atlanta had 7,743 no-shows in
sunny, 80-degree weather and at
Kansas City, 7,097 stayed away
from the Chiefs-Broncos game in
sunny weather.
The Vikings-Lions game in
Detroit, a key National Con
ference Central Division game,
had 4.874 fans stay away in
sunny, 70-degree weather while
1,555 did not use tickets at Pitt
sburg in the Steeler-San Diego
game, played in sunny, 60-degree
temperatures.
The lowest no-show figure
Sunday was at St. Louis where
only 690 fans did not use tickets as
Oakland edged the Cardinals.
No figures were available for
the New York Giants-Green Bay
game at the Yale Bowl in New
Haven, Conn. The Yale Bowl does
not have turnstile facilities—
tickets are taken by hand—and
no-show figures were not
available Sunday night. The
Giants had been averaging about
5,000 no-shows at Yankee
Stadium and the figure was
expected to be much higher since
many fans were expected to skip
the 75-to-100 mile trip to New
Haven.
The Monday Night game at
Washington between Dallas and
the Redskins was the final sellout
of the weekend.
