We8t Bloomfield 851-7200 Israeli sailing team sets course for Olympic gold New York — Since its first trip to the Olympics in 1952, Israel's athletes have yet to stand on the winner's platform and hear Hatikua played by the Olympic or- chestra. In fact, the closest Israel has come to winning a medal was when weightlif- ter Edward Weitz placed fifth in the 1976 Olympics. But this year, Isreel's best chance ever to win its first Olympic medal rests not with its sprinters, swim- mers, or sharpshooters, but with two sailors. When Shimshon Brok- man, 27, and Eitan Fried- lander, 26,, set the jib of their 470 class sailboat off the coast of Long Beach, Calif., it will be the climax of a sailing career which began in 1972 when the sailing duo won the Youth World Championship in West Germany. Brokman, a student at the Technion-Israel Insti- tute of Technology, and Friedlander, an employee of a marine equipment com- pany, were highly favored for a medal in the 1980 Olympic sailing competi- tion. But the duo's road-to- the-gold was temporarily detoured when Israel joined the United States in boycot- ting the Moscow Olympics that year. The two sailors have spent the subsequent four years winning trophies in international competitions in France, Hungary and most recently, the 470 World Championships in England. These competi- tions have not only earned the Israeli sailing team worldwide recognition and have kept their instincts and reflexes honed to Olympic caliber, but have also given them the benefit of racing against the men and boats they will face in this year's Olympics. In 1980, there were only five countries whose sailng skill. posed a challenge to the Israelis. But in the past four years, the field of competition has grown broader and stiffer. There are now at least ten coun- tries whose sailing teams are on par with Brokman and Friedlander. "A good sailor must com- bine strength, intelligence, technique, knowledge, in- tuition and tactics if he wants to win a sailing competition," says Brok- man who, when he isn't sail- ing, is studying for a Mas- ter's degree in aeronautical engineering at the Techn- ion in Haifa. "The speed you achieve is a result of how well these factors are put together." Both Brokman and Fried- lander find that being their country's best chance for the Olympic spotlight has its pressures. In such a small country, they say, with only . I ,^rv m.71 Ar NEWS Shimshon Brokman: "We have a good chance." 37 athletes competing in ten events, the tendency of well-wishers is to expect too much. While the sailing teams from New Zealand, France, Australia, Great Britain and the United States will make for a lively and close race, one Olympic observer comments that the Israeli team of Brokman and Fried- lander is as "intelligent, ag- gressive and skillful" as any of the 28 nations in Olympic sailing competition. "I'm not saying that we'll win," says Brokman, "what I'm saying is that we're as good as any of the other sailors we'll be competing against. We have a good chance." Meanwhile, back in Is- rael, many Israelis are going without sleep, staying up until early morning hours to watch live televi- sion coverage of the Olym- pics because of the time dif- ference in Los Angeles. Television viewers in Jordan, however, experi- enced a temporary blackout of their TV sets during the live broadcast of the open- ing ceremonies when the Is- raeli contingent marched past the cameras. Jorda- nian television had telecast, with commentary, the teams from Hong Kong, Iraq and Ireland and then blacked out for the Israeli team. Coverage resumed as soon as the team was out of camera range and the Ita- lian team came into view.
