Winnipeggers, from Mayor Steve Juba down to the last volunteer among the 6,000 who worked for months on the program, seem to have gained confidence they can stage anything now The magnitude of what they are currently staging can only be realized with the proper appreciation of those who see the program unfold. When one saw 18,000 for equestrian events it was somewhat hard to believe Ditto for the gymnastics, the swimming, the baseball, the soccer, the bike racing, the track and field, and even the volleyball Attendances have been tremendous all the way, the program will probably be topped with 30,000 or so for the dosing ceremonies because enthusiasm has been generated to the bursting point. Swimming probably could have played daily to three times the size of a crowd which jammed the Pan-Am pool It perhaps has been the best draw For Tuesdays evening program even news reporters couldnt find space Some people were offering $10 a seat, but nobody wanted to give up a ticket, even for that sort of a profit.

position track he slipped and suffered a leg cramp as he tried to recover. Ironically Crothers, the flying pharmacist from Markham, went on to win a silver medal on similar short spikes a few minutes later in the 800. Track coach John Minichiello of Vancouver pulled Domansky, the sprinter from Port-Arthur, out of the 200 because the runner was suffering a pulled hamstring muscle. Brian MacLaren of Winnipeg also was suffering a pulled leg muscle, but he hung in to win the bronze behind Crothers and Wade Bell of the U.S., who took the gold medal. 1 Jerome limped home dead i last in the 200, with a time of 31.1 seconds.

John Carlos broke the Games record in winning the gold medal for the U.S. in a 20.5 to break the 1963 mark set by Ray Norton of the U.S. in 20.6. Jerry Bright of the U.S., in 20.9, took the second-place silver followed by P. Montes Casonova, Cuba, in 21.0.

Bell turned in 1:49.2 in the 800 to Crothers 1:49.9. MacLaren did 1:50.3. Canada was also blanked in the womens 200 metres as Wyomia Tyus of the U.S. took the gold with a time of 23.7, ahead of Barbara Ann Ferrell, U.S., who had 23.8. Miguelina a Cobian of Cuba took the bronze waiting settle down so they could get on with the final day of racing.

The U.S. and Brazil each won two of the four goid and four second-place silver medals at stake and Canada won two of the bronze medals. Bermuda and Argentina won the Other two third places. The U.S. won the Lightning and Flying Dutchman classes; Brazil won in Snipe and Finn.

Walter Henry, the boxing salesman from Orillia, won on points over Jaime Cabera, Ecuador, in the first round of flyweight boxing. Frank Scott of New Westminster, B.C., was announced as winner by decision over Guillermo Velasquez of Chile in the bantamweight boxing division but it was a big mistake; the Chilean got the nod. Trinidad and Tobago tried to soften the blow with a serenade, but they still triumphed 2-0 over Canada in field hockey to send the Canadians info a playoff with the U.S. for a bronze medal. In quiet daytime action, Canadas four-man cycling team finished sixth behind Argentina in the 100-kilometre team pursuit.

The Canadians were Marcel Roy of Lac Megantic, a gold medallist earlier in the road race; Jules 'Beland of Drummondville, and Domenico Muro and Bernard Gagne of Montreal. Canada lost 4-1 to Trinidad and Tobago in soccer and Venezuela toppled Canada in mens volleyhall. Brian Donnelly of Oakville, qualified for the 110-metre hurdles; George Neeland of Thornhill, didnt. Fred Fuller of Vancouver won his oening bout in the welterweight boxing division. MARILYN PALMER Gagnon, Canadian ladies open golf champion and Palmer, Canadian close champion, will be at Riverside Country Club Aug-gust 13-19 to defend their titles won last year at Halifax.

THERE HAVE been a few incidents along the way to disrupt things a bit, like the four Canadian baseballers being disqualified and later refused billetting in the Pan-Am village Two of the boys had to leave for home anyway, but it didnt seem quite right to ask the other two to leave the village since they were victims of circumstance However, this part of the Games was overshadowed by all the pleasantries, of which there were many. Even a hard-bitten old writer like Milt Dunnell of the Toronto Star went away singing the praises of the Pan-Am show Milt has been at sports events all over the world and its something to see him enthused concerning a sports show right here in Winnipeg. Fortitude heads list Aaron enters for Derby EXCEPT THAT Im sort of tired of hearing the Star Spangled Banner, it has been a wonderful experience here at the Pan-Am Games, one which I shall not forget Mention of the Star Spangled Banner brings to mind Percy Downton, manager of the Winnipeg Arena and stadium He said the arena organist had played it so often during the past 10 days that the organ could run through it by itself But it was always a thrill for the Americans, just like Canada was a thrill for Canadians, or any other national anthem for people from other countries competing here. Little Elaine Tanner, who set three world swimming records here (one of them in a relay didnt even bring victory) was a tired young lady going into the second week A number of people felt she entered in too many events, and there was the danger of burning herself out Her coach withdrew her entry from a second relay, and said when the mighty mouse swam in the Olympics she would be limited to two events Elaine, however, wouldnt concede she was tired She said she felt fine, but it stands to reason she must have been on the weary side. 1 Up and over TORONTO Tommy Aaron, who didnt earn enough money in his freshman year on the U.S.

Brazil Canada Argentina Cuba Mexico Driving the two most powerful racing cars in their class in Canada, brothers Roger and Maurice McCaig are steering a course they hope will lead to Saskatchewans first victory in the Canadian racing championship.

The brothers have set about their two-year goal quite methodically. They bought two Lotus racing cars, then attended a week-1 course of instruction at the famous Carroll Shelby racing school in California. This year they will compete in 12 races. The first three-regional races will allow them to race at the national level. The brothers have already shown their determination.

cyciinf the finals Saturday on the wide Norway of the Red River, In tem Urn trial Cricket One of the purposes of the trip to the driving school was to see if we had an aptitude for the sport, says Maurice, who has been around trucks all his life, and is today vice-president of Maccam Transport of Moose Jaw. The brothers werent discouraged in taking up the sport by instructors at the Shelby school. In fact, by the end of their weeks instruction they were turning in track speeds of 102 seconds, five seconds short of the track record. But the brothers arent overly confident because of their performance at the California track. There they had no competition and were driving on a near-perfect track.

They realize that they still are wet behind the steering wheel, and have a long way to go before becoming champions. Compared to sedans, the Lotus cars owned by the McCaig brothers are thoroughbreds. But by comparison, any sedan is more comfortable, The Lotus weighing less than 1,000 pounds, are powered by rear-mounted engines, one a 145 horsepower, the other 170 horsepower. Small and fragile, the framing of the cars serve the double purpose of supporting the thin skin and carrying oil and water to the engines. However, they do not intend to race os a team.

race independently; not helping each other, Maurice. Though this could change later when national points are at stake, he added. At a regional race at Davidson on May 20, Maurice took a first place and Roger a third. This was the first competitive race for Roger and the second for Maurice, Two weeks later at MacDonald, near Portage la Prairie, Maurice captured first place in a class race with Roger coming in a close second. Later that day, Maurice raced to a win in a national feature race, which Roger could not enter because he had not received his national licence.

At a regional national race July 2 at MacDonald, Roger drove to a first place in a class race, and again won a class race July 9 at Shepard near Calgary. While the brothers arent considered professional yet, they have, through their attendance at the Shelby school, enough racing driving experience to qualify as highly capable drivers. The Shelby school is recognized as one of the worlds best, and helped train some of the movie stars In Grand Prix. This isn't just an impulsive move on our part says Roger, president of Redl Mix Concrete of Saskatoon, Wed really like to win the championship for Saskatchewan, Our province has never won it as its been dominated by easterners." The brothers admit that their cars, a Lotus 23-B and 23-C. are perhaps a little powerful for two novices.

"We were willing to drive lesser cars if we had been advised at the Shelby school, says the tall, lean, crew-culled Maurice.
