...skiers? Looking at so-so from the underside, as expected. Buried chin-deep in drifts of analysis. There was little need for brooding after the glorious Sarajevo Games, when Debbie Armstrong and Christin Cooper won their gold and silver in the giant slalom, Phil and Steve Mahre a gold and a silver in slalom, and Bill Johnson, to expert eyes more scamster than skier, pulled his lovely downhill win. Now in the small traveling circus of ski racing it was being said that young skiers in the U.S. were too regimented, ran too many drills and never learned to free...
...happy with the way we played on both ends of the ice," Harvard Captain Steve Armstrong said. "Tonight was important to us, not only to win, but to play well. Now, things are in our hands...

Fedoras and spy-length overcoats were the fashion of France, Italy, Bulgaria and others, including, in a gasping surprise, the Americans. Abandoning their customary ranch outfits ("Thank heavens," said Skier Debbie Armstrong), the U.S. team wore overcoats long enough to hide tommy guns (blue coats for the men, white for the molls) and snowy, wide-brim hats from out of the '30s. "Al Capone!" exclaimed Japanese Speed Skater Atsushi Akasaka, 20, who has no English. It looked a little like a jolly...
