I am a non-American IG subscriber. I would say it has a lot of US info, ut
so does this list. I mean think of all the collegiate stuff on here. I know
most of you are from the US, but don't you think the case is the same with
IG. I read IG because I love gymnastics, the same reason I'm on this list. I
mean, give them a break, it is very difficult to put together a magazine
that satisfies all readers, from all countries!

Subject: 1995 Women's Elite Canada - Final results

To repeat from yesterday, I corrected a few spelling errors of names from
the official results. Also, I'm wondering about the club affiliations of
a few of the girls which may be incorrect. I didn't bother proofreading
all the scores but hopefully I didn't make any errors. Note that in the
first day of results Jaime Hill was listed as being from Mississauga, but
she is now with Winstonettes and this was corrected in the official results.

Again, there were lots of mistakes by everyone, so the quality of the meet
was obviously not very good, particularly for the seniors. MacEachern fell
3 times on Day 2 (twice on beam, once on bars) yet she still won the meet.
(!!) However, it looks like experience paid off as Exaltacion won Day 2,
with Lena Degteva in second which moved her up to 8th. Some of the rankings
in junior
were shuffled quite a bit as well.

Then I don't think they should call themselves International Gymnast.

I have only 3 issues. The best being Dec of course. I love gym and thought
this mag would be more about international. So yes, I'm disappointed. I
think we should all send letters about this, or else they won't know their
doing something wrong.

Was there a magazine called World Gymnastics (or Gymnastics World)?
I thought that I saw a copy of it after the Montreal Worlds with Oksana
on the cover posing on the beam. Was that any better.

>Was there a magazine called World Gymnastics (or Gymnastics World)?

Yes, there was. That was the old FIG magazine that went under 7 or so years
ago due to lack of funds. It was far more informative then the new 4 times a
year bulletin format (still great Eileen pictures) but no real info.

Subject: Atlanta Olympics & Dawes in the News

Concerning Olympic tickets, an AP "Olympic Watch '96" article from last week
says ...

"The mail order phase of Olympic ticket sales has ended, but some four
million tickets will be available, by telephone or in person, beginning in
February. ... there is a slim chance that some seats may become available for
presently sold-out sessions. An ACOG spokesman explains some seats at some of
the top events, like track and gymnastics, were left unfilled as a
contengency for unseen needs and may be made available by spring."

The article also mentions that a record 195 of the 197 IOC member nations
have committed to send delegations to the Atlanta Olymics. The only 2
hold-outs are North Korea and Afghanistan. PRK is the only country that has
outright refused to participate , Afghanistan has simply so far failed to
respond to all IOC communications. There is still hope from the IOC, that
both nations will come making Atlanta the first ever fully attended Olympic
Games.

Lastly from the news, Dominique Dawes has been awarded a "lifetime
achievment" award (at the ancient age of 18) as a "Good Sport" from _Sports
Illustrated for Kids_. The award is given to people "on behalf of the time
and effort they have devoted to helping children."

Dawes will be featured in the December issue of the magazine.

Does anyone know what ever happened to Elodie Lussac from France?
The last I heard was that she had injured her back at Dortmond last year. I
really hope that she didn't retire because she showed so much potential.
Thanks,

I think she made it because there are judges who prefer physical FX
over more ballet style FX. I think this is very good. There is room for
both styles in gymnastics.
