The 1964 Winter Olympics (also known as the IX. Winter Olympics ) were held from January 29 to February 9, 1964 in the Austrian city ​​of Innsbruck .

Choice of venue

After Innsbruck had already applied for 1960 and was defeated at the 51st session of the IOC Squaw Valley , it was able to prevail at the 55th IOC session on May 26, 1959 in Munich in a single ballot against Calgary and Lahti , the latter therefore failed completely because the requirements were not fully met.

Results of the ballot:

Pre-Olympic Games

In 1963, pre-Olympic competitions were held in Seefeld (between January 30 and February 3) and on the alpine race tracks on the Patscherkofel and in the Axamer Lizum (between February 15 and 17) .

The 30 km cross-country competition was won by Einar Østby on January 30 , the 10 km cross-country competition for women on January 31 was won by Alewtina Kolchina . On January 31/1. In February there was also the Nordic combined: Race winner : Horst Möhrwald (FRG) was ahead of Alois Kälin and Enzo Perrin (ITA), jumping winner Georg Thoma ahead of Erkka Luiro (FIN) and Willi Köstinger, which means Thoma ahead of Günther Meinel (GDR) and in the final classification Tormod Knutsen (NOR) won (6th place went to Köstinger, 15th place Kälin, who had fallen).

On February 2, the Italian Marcello De Dorigo won the 15 km cross-country skiing ahead of Lars Olsson (SWE) and Reidar Hjermstad (NOR), the 3 × 5 km relay of women brought a Soviet success ahead of Sweden, GDR and an international team . Ultimately, on February 3rd, there was special ski jumping with no outstanding participation: Akemi Taniguchi (JAP) won ahead of Rainer Dietel (AUT). The alpine competitions began with the women's slalom on February 15 in the Lizum, with Edith Zimmermann winning by 2.94 seconds ahead of Heidi Biebl , but since more than half of the participants failed, this dress rehearsal became a farce, it was cautious, defensive Driving was asked.

The main focus was on the downhill run on February 16 at Patscherkofel, where Joos Minsch with No. 22 prevented a triple Austrian success (Nenning, Schranz, Zimmermann), while the French were unable to improve their current reputation as downhillers. There were complaints about strong winds on the starting slope.

On the final day, the women's downhill and the men's slalom were held, with which the combination decisions were made. For the men the results were: Slalom: Nenning, Bonlieu, Schranz, Adolf Mathis and combination Nenning, Schranz, Zimmermann, Lacroix, Adalbert Leitner, Ludwig Leitner (both FRG); Rank 8 Senoner, 9th Périllat, 12th Georg Grünenfelder.

In the women's race, Christl Haas won the downhill ahead of Henneberger, Christl Staffner; 5th place: Christine Goitschel, 6 Annie Famose, 12 Fernande Bochatay; the combination went to Edith Zimmermann before Biebl, Pia Riva; 6th place Silvia Zimmermann (SUI).

opening

Olympic flame of the Winter Games in Innsbruck (1964)

The Winter Games were officially opened around noon (according to newspaper reports at 11.50 a.m.) on January 29, 1964 by the Austrian Federal President Adolf Schärf in the Bergisel Stadium . Among the guests of honor were the Shah of Persia, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi , with Empress Farah Diba .

First, the participating nations, host Austria with the flag bearer Regine Heitzer as the last, marched in. The Austrian Minister of Education, Heinrich Drimmel, welcomed those present in his role as President of the Austrian Olympic Committee and asked for a minute's silence for the two athletes who died during training.

The President of the International Committee, Avery Brundage , asked the Federal President to open it, which he then carried out. Then the so-called Oslo flag was brought into the stadium by six American athletes and the mayor of Squaw Valley . Luge and bobsledder Paul Aste took the Olympic oath . The Olympic torch was lit by the alpine ski racer Josef Rieder . He was the last link in the chain because the torch had been presented to him by Christl Staffner after it had been brought to Innsbruck by the former Olympic figure skating champion, Karl Schäfer .

The opening ceremony was shaped by the sounds of the Vienna Philharmonic under Karl Böhm , with the 7th symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven and the 40th symphony by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart .

Closing ceremony

The closing ceremony took place on February 9th at 9 p.m.

Participation of Germany

Like four years before , both German states took part as an all-German team .

With regard to the two German teams, an exact protocol was drawn up before the games, which regulated every detail of this Olympic coexistence. Even for the opening ceremony, precise uniform regulations had been drawn up. To draw attention to Eastern productions, the all-German team, including the Chef de Mission, Adolf Heine (bank director from Stuttgart), had to march in with gray fur hats instead of light hunter hats - behind him was Manfred Ewald, the president of the German Gymnastics and Sports Association of the GDR “And FdJ leader. The award ceremony in the men's luge also didn't go exactly as agreed: While bronze winner Plenk wore the red and black sweater of the all-German team, Kohler and Bonsack paraded in black. The West German journalists described this as “sniper tactics”, the standing room visitors (more than 50% West German battle-strollers) agreed to their “Germany above everything” after the official hymn (Beethoven's “Song of Joy”).

Outstanding athletes

Lidija Skoblikowa from the Soviet Union won all four women's speed skating competitions. She became the first female athlete to win four medals in a Winter Olympics. The Soviet cross-country skier Klawdija Bojarskich and the Finnish cross-country skier Eero Mäntyranta won three medals .

Worth mentioning

50 shilling silver coin (1964)

Sporty aspects

  • These Winter Olympics suffered from an acute lack of snow. The Austrian Armed Forces brought 20,000 blocks of ice to the bobsleigh and toboggan runs as well as 40,000 m³ of snow for the alpine ski runs. The foehn had hit Innsbruck and the Inn valley since February 2nd, the bobsleigh and toboggan runs “swam” away. It was questionable whether the competitions could be completed. There were sledding competitions for the first time ever. Some of the races were scheduled for 7:30 am, as the lanes may still be frozen at this point; however, at this point the audience was practically absent. The international jury was also ready to compromise and would have recognized these as a valid result even if there were fewer than the planned runs. Apparently four runs were planned for the doubles, the first on the morning of February 7th. In the finish shot of the bobsleigh run, water was centimeter high. Contrary to expectations, there was a noticeable drop in temperature from February 3rd to 4th, which "saved" the competitions.
  • India (with only one person, a Polish exile who was an athlete and head of the delegation rolled into one), North Korea and Mongolia took part in the Winter Olympics for the first time.
  • Bobsleigh driver Eugenio Monti helped Britons Anthony Nash and Robin Dixon to win the Olympics by lending them a spare part; the Italians themselves came third. Monti was the first to receive the De Coubertin Medal for Sportiness .
  • For the US men, Billy Kidd (silver) and Jimmy Heuga (bronze), each in slalom, achieved medals in alpine skiing for the first time (both at the Olympic level and at world championships), while Jean Saubert was already the seventh and eighth Olympic championships for women alpine ski medal and at the same time won tenth and eleventh world championship medals for the US team.
  • After the Olympic Games, the German figure skating couple Marika Kilius and Hans-Jürgen Bäumler had to return their silver medals because they had signed a professional contract before the Games. It wasn't until 1987 that the two got their medals back.
  • A few days before the opening, two athletes lost their lives while training. Ross Milne fell on the downhill piste at Patscherkofel and crashed into a tree off the piste. In doing so, he sustained such serious injuries that despite being immediately transferred to the Innsbruck State Hospital, only his death could be determined. The British toboggan runner Kazimierz Kay-Skrzypeski had a fatal accident while training on the bobsleigh and toboggan run in Igls.
  • The aforementioned race track on Patscherkofel was tested for the first time on January 25, 1953.
  • The French sisters Marielle and Christine Goitschel won both giant slalom (here Marielle ahead of Christine) and slalom (now the other way around, Christine ahead of Marielle), with the same runner also making it into the medal ranks with Jean Saubert . For the first time there was a triple podium for a nation with Austria in an alpine competition for women, downhill skiing.
  • With a view to the Olympic Games, Barbi Henneberger ( Barbara Henneberger ) had refrained from participating in races, which turned out to be negative, because she had missed the connection to the top of the world within a few weeks.
  • Switzerland remained without a medal for the first time.
  • In the alpine competitions there was time measurement with hundredths of a second for the first time. Such was already given at the World Championships in 1941 , which were later canceled , but the running times of the competitions after the war, with the exception of 1954, were again left with tenths of a second. The time measurement of all competitions was done by the "electronic IBM computer center" (see facsimile of the race results of the women's downhill according to Kleine Zeitung Graz No. 31 of February 7, 1964, page 12).

organization

  • The Olympic flame for the 1964 Winter Olympics was lit for the first time in ancient Olympia through a concave mirror . For the 1952 and 1960 games , the fire was lit in Morgedal , Norway , which is considered the cradle of skiing. The fire for Cortina d'Ampezzo in 1956 had been kindled in the Roman Forum in Rome . Before 1952 there was no Olympic torch relay at the Winter Games .
  • Already at the 56th annual general meeting of the Innsbruck district office of the Red Cross on June 28, 1963, the plans for supplying the audience in particular were presented. Accordingly, 76 ambulances and 550 volunteers were planned for the 86 planned events.
  • To transport the competitors to the sports venues were only buses of Magirus-Deutz used. The Olympic Committee awarded the equipment for the Olympic Games with vehicles to Magirus-Deutz u. a. because of the reliability of this manufacturer's air-cooled motors in the cold. 20 buses were in use, transporting around 51,000 people over around 22,000 kilometers during the Games.
  • The organization with the shuttle bus service from the city of Innsbruck to the competition venues worked very well from the start. The Austrian Post used 200 buses. A highlight was a 7 km long, newly built stretch of road from Axams to Lizum, on which only postal buses were allowed to travel to the “Olympiahotel”. From high towers the gendarmerie directed the park division by radio. The first thing in the morning were the approximately 1,200 accredited press representatives to be brought to the ski stadiums in good time before the big run of the spectators started. The set-up cash desks were able to clear a large bus within two minutes.
  • 850 police officers from all over Austria were assigned to various services; of these, the Vienna district inspector Rudolf Itkovits was a linguistic genius (ten languages). It was intended for interpreting tasks.
  • The national anthems at the awards ceremony were played live by Stadtkapelle Wilten (Kapellmeister Sepp Tanzer ); she had to study 38 pieces of music.
  • In the schools in Vienna, the opening ceremony and other Olympic events could be followed on television. The Ministry of Education had issued a special decree authorizing the directorates to do so, "adjusting with the teaching time without leaving students too far behind in the curriculum". The majority of schools had to be content with radio transmissions because only 16 Viennese schools (almost exclusively middle schools) already had TV sets. 957 girls and 902 boys from the schools in Vienna were also allowed to follow the sporting events in Innsbruck (and its surroundings) directly.
  • The schools in Tyrol were generally closed, because those in Innsbruck (and the surrounding area) were used to accommodate people who had traveled during the Winter Games to carry out work in some way.
  • The Austrian Federal Railways deployed 398 special trains to and from Innsbruck. There were special trains from Munich (via Kufstein), Garmisch (via Scharnitz), Saalfelden (via Kitzbühel), St. Anton / Arlberg and from Brenner and back with reduced fares. On January 29th, 26 special trains with 6,500 passengers (without delay) were run.

this and that

  • In Austria, the games triggered a boom in TV sales.
  • The TV broadcasts were such a "highlight" that televisions were set up from the perspective of Innsbruck's business in adjacent rooms of retail stores, so that the employees from the shop stand out (in the business poor time) through an open door Seitenblicke on arriving for transmission competitions throw could. On the day of the men's downhill race, the lunch break was brought forward in many grocery stores and a sign saying “Closed due to downhill race” was attached to the entrance door.
  • There was also a so-called "ring game" in the shop windows and shops of the Olympic city, such as Olympic rings embossed in gold with a price depending on the size of 180 to 9,000 schillings, powder compacts with the rings, the "core buam" had an "Olympic ring" March "on record (title:" Innsbruck, du Krone von Tirol ") immortalized. In addition, ties with the Olympic emblem and, as the most common enamel badge, were offered for the skirt, hat or dashboard of the car.
  • There were complaints from journalists about the Olympic catering service and the price gouging. Both the “RAI” and the GDR television filmed in the press dining room and commented on these films quite acutely. Thereupon even Minister Heinrich Drimmel, who was also head of the “Austrian Olympic Committee”, announced his intervention and wanted to be informed by press officer Bertl Neumann.
  • In the much-cited “Olympia Hotel”, it was mainly the celebrities, above all the Persian imperial couple, who were in the first place in the public interest. (The Shah, "disguised" as an official, was allowed to drive down the ladies' downhill run.). But the Stuttgart jeweler Schilling also exhibited its jewels every day as part of a fashion show (entrance fee 150 Schilling). An “Olympic ball” (entry 900 schillings) was also held in the hotel. In order to also inform the “non-Lizum visitors”, the Austrian radio broadcasted reports from the “Olympiahotel” as part of its well-known midday radio program “Car drivers on the move”. For this purpose, head moderator Walter Niesner had set up a provisional studio in the hotel kindergarten. Also, the Bayerische Rundfunk conducted a similar program with "Background Stories".
  • In addition to the imperial couple, the Swiss pop star Vico Torriani (he presented his new hit “Ski Twist” that went with the games) was one of the prominent foreign guests.
  • From Innsbruck's night life it was reported that it was as quiet as never before. Obviously, both officials and visitors went to bed early because nobody wanted to miss anything the next day or not have had enough sleep.
  • The city of Innsbruck also had a comprehensive artistic program at the highest level to offer, with all the city hall concerts sold out with 900 tickets, while the Vienna Philharmonic had over 1,100 tickets due to the increased issue of standing tickets.

Radio and television

As early as July 6, 1962, the organizing committee accepted Eurovision's offer to buy the television rights for the broadcast. At the same time, the OC decided to keep the ticket prices for all events popular. Under the chairmanship of the Austrian television director Gerhard Freund , sports representatives for radio and television from England, France, Italy, Austria, Sweden and the Federal Republic of Germany discussed the organizational preparation of the Eurovision programs in Vienna on September 3 and 4, 1962. 21 radio stations broadcast the games.

The IOC granted 50 hours (free) of broadcasting rights for TV for foreign channels and 100 hours for Austrian TV. There was also a quota for sports, e.g. B. 10.10 hours for the Alpine advertising, 6.30 hours for the Nordic etc. - The broadcasting rights amounted to CHF 1.2 million, which were given to Eurovision, Intervision, USSR television and the US station »American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) «.

Austrian television was commissioned as the host station. In addition to this, only the US station »ABC« was allowed to install its own technical transmission equipment at three competition venues (ice and Bergisel stadiums and bobsleigh). The opening and parts of the ice hockey match between the USA and the Soviet Union have already been transmitted to the USA via the latest communications satellite "Relay 2", with the relay being carried out via the French ground station Pleumer-Bodou in Brittany (Center de télécommunication par satellite de Pleumeur-Bodou) to the US earth station Andover (Maine) . "Relay 2" was shot down just a week earlier (January 21).

Competition program

34 competitions (21 for men, 12 for women and 1 mixed competition) in 6 sports / 10 disciplines were held. That was 7 competitions, 2 sports / disciplines more than in Squaw Valley in 1960 . A total of 1,091 athletes (199 women, 892 men) took part. The changes to the previous Winter Games are detailed below:

  • Bob was back to the Olympics after failing to play in 1960.
  • Luge was added to the Olympic program. The program included single-seaters for men and women - as well as two-seaters for men.
  • In cross-country skiing , the women’s 5 km have been added.
  • In ski jumping , jumping from the large hill extended the program.
