The Olympics .. .
.. Washington 1969
By BILL DINNER
Although Olympics are usually held every four years, the
international committee, in an emergency meeting, voted un-
animously last night to hold the 1969 games in the nation's
capital this weekend.
Au unprecedented number of participants are expected,
though the official figures were not released. Reliable estimates
run as high as a million. Approximately 300,000 referees will be
on hand, courtesy of the United States Government.
The Wolverines main competitors for the number one spot
appear to be Harvard, Columbia, Berkeley-UCLA, and Madison,
and pre-season polls pick Michigan as the dark horse contender.
The Crimson, with their general strike of last year, and
their building takeovers the past two years may be resting on
their laurels. Meanwhile the Berkeley-UCLA tribe have demon-
strated their power over the fight for Communist Party member
Angela Davis. On the otherhand, Washington feels that the best
show may be from those raggled Badgers.
Although the Wolverines have shown some power in the
recent bookstore controversy, their full potential is simply not
known.
Recent surveys have noted that the fight could be rough,
and all Michigan competitors are urged to arrive early with
protective helmets in order to have a opportunity to test their
strength in practice.
Presently there are eight official events. Of course more
may be added at the discretion of the referees, since Uncle Sam
always knows best.
For the benefit of newcomers the planned events are sum-
med up below.
THE BRICK THROW: Any size brick will be acceptable,
however the judges will give special consideration to participants
who use cinder blocks. Windows on local buildings are worth
one point apiece, while government property will earn 3 per
pane. Hitting the refs, mistakenly or not, is foul play, but is
guaranteed to gain endearment from the crowd.
MACE-OR-NOT SHUFFLE: This long valued sport is quite
similar to the ancient 200 yard shuttle run and attempts to
measure speed, while placing special emphasis on agility and
reflexes. The game begins by one of the refs throwing a canister
and a player deftly throws it back. The canister landing closest
to the refs receives the highest prize. Abeited attempts will be
punished with expulsion from the crowd.
THE STEEPLE CHASE: Will probably be restricted to
people who participated in the brick throw, or mace-or-not
shuffle, but an over reaction by the refs could open it up to
everyone. One point will be awarded for every barricade suc-
cessfully cleared while being chased by a ref. However, if after
finishing the chase, a contestant is stopped by a ref he goes
directly to jail and does not collect 200 dollars.
THE POLE VAULT: Open to all contestants who have upset
the refs, main object is to vault through second story window
in attempt to escape. One additional point for every floor, minus
10 for landing in army helicopter.
BREATH HOLDING AND HANKERCHIEF PULLING: con-
test begins if attempt to score on mace-or-not shuffle fails,
points will be awarded for the fewest tears and rashes. Space
suits are not allowed, and any contestant who collapses will be
disqualified.
GATE CRASHING: For those courageous soles, three points
will be presented on certification of every embassy gate broken
in attempt to seek asylum. Fifteen points for successful break-
through of the White House fense, along with 16 counts of con-
tempt of court and four years in jail. Minus five points for the
Smithsonian, but 100,000 dollars from the black market for every
Rembrandt.
DUELING: Six points for every defeated ref, 27 points for a
tape recording of refs yelling "long live Mao," and 41 points for
a hammer and sickle etched in blood.
ROOM STUFFING: Although no official points will be
awarded, honorable mention will go to all people who fit more
than 29 kids into less than a ten by eight flop house, in addition
two gold stars if no one gets to sleep.
Good luck to all, and to all a good fight.
