With a full complement of East bloc countries on hand for the first time in eight years, a bundle of Olympic records were set. Jozef Pribilinec of Czechoslovakia won the 20-km walk in 1:19:57, breaking the old record by more than 3 min. Mop-top Khristo Markov of Bulgaria hopped, skipped and soared to a triple-jump record of 57 ft. 9 1/2 in., while American favorite Willie Banks placed sixth.

...Walesa's hometown of Gdansk, 3,000 people marched through the streets carrying a banner that proclaimed WE WON'T GO TO THE POLLS, and in the steel-mill city of Nowa Huta, hundreds of youths clashed with plainclothes police. The head of Poland's Roman Catholic hierarchy, Jozef Cardinal Glemp, was conveniently in Rome on election day, and most of the country's 22,000 Catholic priests stayed away from the polls...
