Re: t-and-f: Re: 1972 Vaulting Pole Snafu (formerly Eddie Hart . .)
As it happens this was not quite the case. While Nebiolo would go ahead and instituted many necessary changes, Paulen was cognizant and even supportive towards the move to fromally cahnge the status in regard to payments into trust funds for athletes. There is documentation from the 1978 IAAF Congresses in Puerto Rico and 1981 in Rome to show this, apart from my personal impression having attended those meetings, but I don't think this list should or can be loaded with detail. Sincerely, Uri === Quoting Randy Treadway [EMAIL PROTECTED]: re: Paulen being almost executed by the Germans in World War II Politicians who did something meritorious four decades prior should be commended, but should not get a free pass for the rest of their life solely because of it with regard to their current ability to lead. The primary consideration for effective leadership should be what have you done for me lately. [yes, there is a parallel American message here- sorry, couldn't resist... :) ] I personally don't think that Paulen had any particular favoritism toward Nordwig, and I doubt that he had it in for any particular nation or region. I just think that he did not exhibit the leadership qualities which were needed in the 1970's in the areas of reform and progressive movement toward making Athletics a professional sport in all the best senses of the word. He was a cog in the amateur sports bureaucracy which prevailed at the time and which were determined to mantain the sham status quo of amateurism, Olympic movement, etc., at all costs, which really served to maintain the elitist top end of sports administration for many many years.

t-and-f: Alex Woodley Obituary
May 26, 2004 Alex Woodley, 71, Coach of Philadelphia Track Club, Dies By FRANK LITSKY [A] lex Woodley, who coached and mentored many Olympic gold-medal sprinters in the 1960's and 1970's as head of the Philadelphia Pioneer Club, died on Saturday at his home in Philadelphia. He was 71. The cause was a heart attack, his wife, Jean, said. Woodley's athletes who won Olympic gold medals included Paul Drayton, Steve Riddick, Charlie Greene, Mel Pender, Herman Frazier and Hasely Crawford. Other leading athletes from the club included John Carlos, Ivory Crockett, Curtis Mills, Edwin Roberts, Tom McLean and Benn Fields. In an era when meet directors often gave modest appearance fees, which were illegal, to white track and field athletes, few black athletes so benefited. Riddick said Woodley changed that. In 1973, Riddick said by telephone, seven or eight of us from the club were spending the summer running in Europe. We were just getting by on expense money, he said. At the Bislett Games in Norway, Alex told them we wouldn't run unless we got $1,000 apiece. We got it. We gave him 10 percent, and all of us had a little money in our pockets. It was the first time I was ever paid to run. Alexander Jiminez Woodley was born April 30, 1933, in Philadelphia. He earned a degree in biology from La Salle University, where he was a premed student and journeyman high jumper. Later, he coached the Pioneer Club team, which did not pay him a salary. He taught English and African-American studies at a high school from 1963 to 1996. He is survived by his second wife, the former Jean Dicks; two sons, Alexander III of Dallas and Jeffrey of New York; two daughters, Dr. Aminta Breaux of North Wales, Pa., and Alicia Woodley of Philadelphia; two brothers, Fernando of Philadelphia and Dr. William Rodgers of Blue Bell, Pa.; two sisters, Aminta Burnett and Micalena Carter, both of Philadelphia; his mother, Micaela Woodley, of Philadelphia; six grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren. In 1980, Woodley told The Philadelphia Bulletin about a lesson in life in 1950, when he was a freshman in college. When the La Salle track team arrived in Baltimore for a meet, the white athletes went to a hotel and Woodley and other black athletes were sent to private homes. Was I that different? Woodley recalled thinking. Did they have to separate me from that group? Would I taint somebody? Afterward I wanted to make sure that this never happened to a kid. It's been my life's work. I'd probably be a millionaire right now if I'd put these hours in private business. _ MSN Toolbar provides one-click access to Hotmail from any Web page FREE download! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200413ave/direct/01/

t-and-f: BALCO built world's fastest man: report
http://www.cbc.ca/pcgi-bin/templates/sportsView.cgi?/news/2004/05/26/Sports/ montgomery040526 CBC SPORTS ONLINE - Tim Montgomery's rise from unheralded sprinter to world's fastest man was the result of a secret project led by a California lab at the centre of a drug scandal, according to a published report. Five men, including BALCO Laboratories owner Victor Conte and Canadian track coach Charlie Francis, plotted a drug-enhanced training regime for Montgomery to help the American athlete break the world 100-metre record, the San Jose Mercury News reported Tuesday. The plan, dubbed Project World Record, was reportedly born in the backrooms of the BALCO offices in late 2000. The plan was to make Montgomery a world-record holder, and in turn, help promote BALCO's legal supplement ZMA, the paper reported. Montgomery posted a world-best time of 9.78 seconds in the 100 metres less than two years later in Paris. The paper, citing sources and corroborating documents, named Montgomery, Francis, Conte, track coach Trevor Graham and strength coach Milos Sarcev as the five masterminds behind the project. Part of the program reportedly involved Montgomery taking the previously-undetectable designer steroid tetrahydrogestrinone (THG) eight times in May 2001. According to the article, the group decided to keep its union a secret because it didn't want to be publicly associated with Francis. Francis became a household name to Canadians in the 1980s as the coach of Ben Johnson, and his fame rose with the sprinter's. But he was banned from coaching in Canada after Johnson was stripped of his 100-metre Olypmic gold medal in Seoul after testing positive for the anabolic steroid stanzolol. Montgomery has never tested positive for any performance-enhancing drug and has repeatedly denied taking banned supplements. Tim Montgomery is a world-class runner who has never posted a dirty test in his life and is now being smeared by rumour and innuendo, Montgomery's lawyer, Cristina Arguedas, told the Mercury News. There is no evidence that Tim Montgomery took a banned substance of any kind in his life. Montgomery isn't the only athlete to have his name associated with BALCO the lab a the centre of an international doping probe. Conte and three others, including the personal trainer for baseball star Barry Bonds, were charged in February with distributing THG and other banned performance-enhancing substances to high-profile track and field, football and baseball athletes. All four defendants pleaded not guilty. The Mercury News also reported that Marion Jones, Montgomery's partner, worked with Conte less than two months before the 2000 Sydney Olympics an event at which she captured five medals. Like Montgomery, Jones and Bonds have repeatedly denied ever using performance-enhancing drugs.
