In elections held Wednesday by the International Olympic Committee, the South Korean capital picked up late support and scored an unexpectedly easy vic tory over Nagoya, Japan, by a vote of52-27. Two members of the IOC abstained and another was absent because of illness. The three-way fight for the 1988 Winter Games ended in triumph for Calgary, which defe ated Falun, Sweden, 48-31. Seoul’s mayor, Young-Su Park, who signed the contract with the IOC to stage the Games, was not surprised at the success of his ci ty’s bid but admitted the margin of victory was unexpected. “I knew we would win,” he said, “but I never believed it would be by so much. The IOC members have placed their faith in us and we will not let them down. Today is a day Seoul will remember for always. I was so ex cited it was difficult signing my name.” The Mayor reaffirmed his gov ernment’s pledge to guarantee “free entry to all and hoped the Olympics would bring about clos er ties between South and North Korea. “When West Germany held the 1972 games in Munich, an agree ment was reached in 1971 be tween West and East Germany. By hosting the 1988 Games we hope this will serve as a great momentum to open dialogue be tween our two countries and true peace will settle on us. “Our country is divided at the moment, but we have 5,000 years of history, we share the same lan guage and we are the same people.” For Calgary, the waiting was the worst part. ting the ball at one another on the baseline waiting for the other to make a mistake.” Matuscky was ahead 5-3 in the second set but Fernandez came back to win three straight games. Fernanez said she enjoyed the tournament and hoped she would be able to go to Bermuda. “I met a lot of good people and had a very good time, ” the cham pion said. “I would sure like to do it again soon but I have too much to do. It’s too bad I have to come back to work and study — they have both piled up on me.” drive 1 Off M o« Traffic Ufvry * * * ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ Aggie Auction featuring Campus Celebrities to benefit United Way Monday Oct. 5 11-3 Rudder Fountain ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ End of Season Sale STEEL-BELTED RADIAL WHITEWALL BUILT TOUGH AT A PRICE THAT’S TOUGH TO BEAT Original Equipment on Many of The Finest Automobiles $ 66 76 R185/80 R-13 W/W FEATURES: • P-metric sizes • Two full-width steel belts • Polyester cord body plies • Radial ply construction SIZE PRICE F.E.T.
