Picture coverage was coordinated by Photo Researchers Jerry Astor and Paula Hornak, who supervised Photographers Rudi Frey, Neil Leifer, Jim Drake and John lacono. Says Astor: "Fog, heavy snow and bad light made it a photographer's nightmare...
...Winter gambols, and all three women's race winners were known only to journalists who traveled the World Cup circuit. Armstrong was obscure, but so was Paoletta Magoni, 19, an Italian who won the slalom when half the women entered fell or missed gates in a thick fog. And Ursula Konzett, a 24-year-old Liechtensteiner, took the bronze. The only known quantity here was France's Perrine Pelen, who won the silver and, earlier, a bronze behind Armstrong and Cooper in the G.S. Four years ago, Pelen took a bronze in the G.S. at Lake Placid...
...KIND of day travelers dread and ticket agents loathe Ram and fog closed airports and delayed traffic across the Northeast for most of the afternoon, but as evening came the ceiling started to lift.

...snow, fog and high winds that twice knocked out the men's downhill ski race eliminated any realistic chance of a U.S. medal to savor during the first four days. ABC concentrated on two successive losses by the U.S. hockey team, and the second game was temporarily and perhaps mercifully blacked out by a power shortage. The six-hour time difference meant that the American setbacks were reported on newscasts well in advance of ABC's programs. And somber news from Moscow and Beirut overshadowed the celebratory glow in Sarajevo...
