...much of the time debating the boycott. The meetings also produced a flap over the American flag. I.O.C. officials want to run it up the pole at the Games' conclusion, as protocol dictates, to signify the U.S. as the site of the 1984 Olympiad. White House Counsel Lloyd Cutler last week sent the I.O.C. a letter objecting to that plan, but the committee plans to stand fast. Meanwhile, the local organizers of the 1984 Los Angeles Games submitted an upbeat report on their preparations and promised to pay the estimated tab of $347 million without U.S. Government aid. They...
...count of who will attend may thus not be available for weeks. The I.O.C. released figures last week indicating that 85 nations will send teams to Moscow, 26 will not, and 31 are undecided. Those numbers were dismissed as "clearly wrong" by White House Counsel and Boycott Coordinator Lloyd Cutler.

...Geneva, the U.S., U.K. and Australia invited 25 nations to a two-day meeting to hear White House Olympic Coordinator Lloyd Cutler spell out the U.S. position. Yet only nine of the countries invited sent delegates, and most of those who showed up listened coolly. Even staunchly pro-boycott Britain indicated that a timely Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan would "change everything...
...officials insist that in the next two months as many as 50 of the 142 countries invited to Moscow will decide not to go; so far only 25 nations have endorsed the boycott. Much depends on how fast the boycotters can organize their alternate games, which Cutler calls the "WorldClass International Sports Festival." He envisions a series of events next August and September in a number of locales around the world. Funding for the games, however, will be difficult to obtain. Cutler claims that revenues from TV coverage could help, but executives at NBC and ABC decline...
