Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill (31) the nations and that if countries play (32) together they will learn to live together. (33) say that the opposite is true, that international contests encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably (34) truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done (35) to support the view that sports encourage international brotherhood. Not only was here the tragic (36) involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by (37) incidents caused principally by minor national contests.
One country received its second-place medals with visible indignation after the hockey final. (38) had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers (39) to the final decisions. They were convinced that one of their goals should have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair. Their manager was in a rage when he said: "This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished". The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result (40) the suspension of the team for at least three years.
The American basketball team announced that they would not yield first place (41) Russia, after a disputable end to (42) contest. The game had ended in disturbance. It was thought at first (43) the United States had won, by a single (44), but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play. A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the (45), and another player popped it into the basket.
It was the first time the U.S.A. had (46) lost any Olympic basketball match. An appeal jury debated the matter for four and a half hours (47) announcing that the result would (48). The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals. Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or (49) non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that (50) aggressive patriotism.
