ence, and a record indicating a
much more solid punch, than his
opponent. The Detroit battler, who
has a four fight winning streak,
has won 40 bouts, 28 of them by
knockout, lost 10 and drawn one.
Rodriguez, a native of Puerto
Rico, has had oily 28 fights, win

lite most moiuiiiie:ital foul up
in Olympic history today shat
tered the peace and serenity of
scenic Soua'v Valley, site of the
105O Winter Games opening
Thursday.
If there was unytliing rigiil, "U
was being kipl secret u'ul criti-
Hut aiMuiently they learned
nothing. Tilings have gotten
worse instead of belter."
Here were some of the chief
complaints ifew newspapers
would have enouiih space to list
them all':
That tha three ke rinks were
bfiiig bally handled with the r-
cism was being heaped on Ihe j su( ihat s Jtn-d skaters, figure
U.S. organizers of the games in
an increasing flow of complaints.
It wasn't so serious that the ac
tual games were in jeopardy, but
it had reached the stage where
most everyone was unhappy about
one thing or another.
Worse Not Belter
"There's no excusing the poor
conditions here," said a high
member of the U.S. Olympic
Committee, 1 who asked that his
rame not be used. "We figured
the organizing committee would
do a good job for they had the
North Ame'ican fckiing champion
ships he.e a year ago aid we all
figured that would prove a good
trial run. And give them plenty
of time to correct mistakes and
set everything right.

Facilities Crowded
Nothing has been done to keep
half of the ice f:om the main
areia from melting under the
winter sun, preventing athletes
from using half of the arena from
abcut 11 a.m. on each day.
At first all of the complaints
were brushed off as one of those
things that usually occur in big
international sports 'events. The
eaily complaints of the foreign
officials and athletes were dis.
counted on the grounds that they
would complain no matter what
the conditions.
- But when U.S. athletes and of
ficials joined the parade some
figured that maybe changes
would be made for Uncle Sam
was talking now. But that didn't
help either.
