Wrestling team prospects fill the mat room in preparation lor the upcoming season. The Grinly Grapplers' first meet is the Medlord Tournament tomorrow, December ?. 76 Olympics Jeopardized After the national and state elections November 7, it seems Denver, Colorado is going to make Olympic -history. The voters of that Rocky Mountain state rejected govern mental plans to fund the 1976 Winter Olympic Games with increased taxation. The vote, almost a 2:1 ratio, approved a statewide referendum to cut off state money for the next Olym piad. At that time, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) had little choice but to move the Olympics to another city. If the move is made, it will be the first time in Olympiad history that a host city lost the games after the initial bid had been accepted and approved. &fy ATHLETES' CP tfcAlb Collaboration by Randy Dew and Sharon Hill Can you imagine a "free-for-all" between the Grizzly wrestling and gymnastics teams. That could be an extreme solution to the situation at hand this year. This situation concerns the utilization of the mats by both the wrestlers and gymnasts. With Southern Oregon College (S.O.C.) requesting the return of their circular wrestling mat which the girls had used, the gymnasts are left without any tumbling mats whatsoever. The removal of the S.O.C. mat left no alternative but for the gymnasts to request more time on the wrestling mats. On the other hand, it poses just as much difficulty for the wrestlers since it would cut down on their practice time. At the present time the wrestlers reluctantly relinquish the wrestling room for 80 minutes on Monday and the entire day Thursday. This poses a certain problem for the wrestlers since wrestling matches are held on Thursday nights. It means a review that might help someone, would have to be skipped. The same goes with the gymnasts. To them, the time they spend on the mats is definitely insufficient to prepare for competition. A gymnasts floor exercise routine must cover all of the mat. If she is not used to the large area to work with, she may end up looking like she is tethered to the center of the mat. The lack of tumbling space is also a problem. There is always the danger of smashing into the walls or ceiling when performing the more dynamic aerials. As for next year, the problem has been solved. O.S.A.A. decided to have gymnatic season in the fall. Hopefully the new girls gym will be assembled by then and the gymnastic team will be able to practice in there. The mats however, will have to be transported into the gym for the girls use during the fall season, and be transported back out in time for the wrestlers first practice. We do thank the administration for ironing out next year's problem. But it still leaves this year in quite a bind.

Oregon 97520 Even so, private Colorado businessmen supporting the Olympic Games succeeded in imposing a 30 day court injunc tion. Three private citizens, who obtained the restraining order, said the amendment cutting off funds could not be interpreted as a vote against the Olympics, itself. The injunction was sought to allow the Colorado Committee to Retain the Winter Games to plead its case before the IOC. They feel optimistic about raising the necessary money within the 30 day period. Even so, the Denver Olympic Organizing Committee (DOOC) feels the games cannot proceed without finds from Denver and the entire State of Colorado as well. Featuring a quick fast break, Ashland High basketball will get off to a running start tonight at the annual Jamboree held at Ashland. "Koseburg is the team to beat this year," said Assistant Coach Dick Kromminga. This seems to be consensus opinion. With 6-7 Rich Parsons leading the way, Roseburg does look tough. Medford and Klamath Falls both came up short on talent but are to be highly respected be cause of outstanding coaching.
