Just you, just me.
Just you, just me.
Off in Calgary, fourth in the World Championships, the 33-year-olds giving it another go.
And moving.
Just 500s, nothing.
Clipped the gate, he's okay.
Oh, and he's hit that one and he's not okay and stock's gone.
He hit the first one, he put him slightly offline, came back on that traverse where it has to be so right.
And the chance of Leonard Stock becoming Olympic champion again after 1980 is gone.
It says everything.
Here it is.
Already fighting for it there and hit one of those control gates.
There was no way he was going to get his balance back from there.
Already beginning to get too low.
Stock of Austria's out, Ortlieb still leads.
Thankfully, he's okay.
Five, nine.
Heinz, Switzerland, the big favorite, the outstanding racer, the world champion.
What can he do?
Good.
Not only Heinz attacking Ortlieb, it's Switzerland attacking Austria and that means so much in this course.
Throughout the season, he's skied to different limits.
Brilliant.
The most critical line on the course.
Look at that. Look how low he gets, the body almost between the knees when he has that slight chance to do it.
Racing on slightly shorter skis than other racers.
But he's down. He's four or five down.
Ortlieb will be watching this at the bottom. All the Austrians, all the Swiss will.
And Heinz makes a mistake into Ankely. He's got away with it.
Half a second down. Plus another mistake. It's reflecting on the clock.
He's 0.67 down. He's not got the speed. It should be over 90.
The biggest favorite for the Olympic downhill title on this controversial course.
So much resting on him. Makes the jump into the finish.
It's gone away, I think. And not even a medal.
No medal for Heinz, the favorite. And Ortlieb still leads from Vosmar and Torsten.
Wow. That's the big shock is number 13, Christian Godina.
The tear away young Italian takes the course.
First Olympic Games. Get a silver in the World Championship in the combination racing downhill and slalom.
And that is quick. 131.6. Godina has been quick on all the training at that part of the course.
The turns may let him down. He's up. He's the fastest. 500's up on Ortlieb.
Number 13 beating number one.
Heinz watches at the bottom there with Stemmel.
But Heinz, no medal. So disappointed.
Ortlieb will have breathed the biggest sigh of relief when Heinz didn't beat his time.
He'll be thinking again now because when Godina skis, anything can happen.
Same unpredictable temperament as the great Alberto Tamba, who of course doesn't ski downhill.
We were watching for him in slalom and giant later in the game.
So Godina. He's lost it on the turns. Again, he's just under a second down.
The technical demands of this course are amazing. And he swings into Ancoli. That's OK.
The Italians have come in here. The crowd is getting bigger by the moment.
It's been a little difficult to get here because of the road system.
It's absolutely packed here now. All up the hill, down in the finish pole.
And the Italians will be a little bit disappointed that Godina hasn't been able to keep it going.
He promised so much at the top and he's losing it at the bottom.
Seventh. Tremendous start. But the turns caught him out.
The turns shouldn't catch up this man. A real technical expert, Gunter Marder.
Not a downhill specialist. Slalom and giant Slalomano could also ski very well at downhill.
He was 19th in Calgary. Brought in because of the way this course has been built.
And already quick. Marder.
He'll still have it for Oswald. Volkmeier, Germany. Of course, Storff.
Clipped it. OK.
Six hundredth down. That's nothing.
And in stock his teammate would have had time to tell him to watch the gate.
Good through there. Back up. So important to get the speed out of the turn. Keep it going.
The best line, the straightest line down the road.
Look at the way. The lower part of the body, the knees working all the time.
Grabbing that little chance to tuck.
How good? How good?
Point four seven. It's still possible.
Slipped away a little there, but he's all right.
Good line through there and good out. That's a good exit from Ancoli and that'll give him extra speed.
Yes, he's picking up. That's a little quicker.
Eighty eight point nine point three seven down. Gunter Marder of Austria with his teammate Ortlieb in the gold medal position.
And Marder could well get in amongst the medals here.
It's good.
It's silver at the moment. Austria one and two.
The power and the speed of Ortlieb in gold.
The technical ability of Marder in silver as A.J. Kitt sets off.
Torsten is pushed out of the medals now. Vosmair is in the bronze position.
Kitt, his mum and dad have come here to see him.
Won the opening downhill of the winter here in Val d'Isère, but not on this course.
It was down the road on the Ladai course. He hasn't been happy with this in training.
Memories of Billy D. Johnson, new one, Terrie Abell and 1300. That's the only difference as Marder watches.
A.J. from Rochester, New York. He doesn't have names, only initials.
He's had a lot of trouble on that turn in training.
He was rumoured to be going down to very short skis, but stayed with the ones he's been racing on all season.
Everybody's still buzzing with the big shock that Marder is not the champion. He hasn't even got a medal.
1.34. Kitt is down. I don't think he can pick that up.
Austria, gold and silver at the moment, with Germany in bronze with Vosmair.
What a change that is from Calga, Switzerland gold and silver.
France in bronze.
Downhill, so important to Austria.
It's like your team winning the FA Cup.
Good speed, I think. Anybody's been quicker than that, 94.3.
But he's lost too much at the very top of the course. Two swinging turns put in here before the jump finish.
Loves to take the air.
And finish very well, but lost it in the top section, 8.
Waiting in the start at Mark Schiardelli of Luxembourg. Born in Austria, skis for Luxembourg.
Tremendous training run here yesterday.
And in with a great chance.
Tremendous record of this man. Three golds, three silvers and two bronzes in world championships.
But nothing in Olympic Games.
One man team, trained and managed to be looked after by his father.
A great technician who suddenly became a downhiller and he's got speed like he suddenly found yesterday.
Nothing was going right until yesterday. And suddenly Schiardelli was right back in amongst the favourites.
Yes, look at this, he's quicker.
Schiardelli has found the speed again at the top like he did yesterday.
Austria in gold and silver.
And it's an Austrian born skier who races for Luxembourg who can well take it away.
The lone man of the mountains. He's always hit the net and he's gone.
Dear, oh dear, when he was going so well that unlike Schiardelli, what I think had happened, he concentrated so much on pace.
And that line on the traverse there is the one that catches you out.
Here it comes. He was really moving faster than anybody had done.
And just couldn't hold it there. Onto the safety netting.
The wrong side of the gate and Schiardelli, who was there with a great chance, is out of it and not a happy man.
What a shame.
Yes, what a disappointment. You only get one chance in the downhill.
And so Patrick Autlieb of Austria Leeds will have more of the downhill a little later on.
But right after the break, ice hockey.

Welcome back. Ice hockey always one of the biggest crowd pullers at any winter games,
and certainly one of the busiest, with three matches scheduled every day of these Olympics.
There are 12 teams altogether, and six of them saw action yesterday, even before the opening ceremony began.
To tell us who won and who lost, here's Brady Halls.
The first match of these Olympics saw the host country clash with the world's second best hockey team, and clash they did.
First blood was drawn by the Canadians. It was more than a quarter of an hour later when the French evened the score.
They called this the fastest game on earth, and these teams were living up to that.
Players were clocked at 60 kilometres an hour, the puck at twice that speed.
Any wonder the keeper dodged the third goal.
Oh, what an accurate shot by Artscheval, 2-1 Canada on the power play.
More accuracy two minutes later, when the Canadians followed up with another goal.
Oh, good backhander, another try, another, they score! Three shots, and Kent Manderville is the one who gets it in.
The Canadians were applying pressure, but it only spurred the French on.
The icy Mirabel Stadium was heating up.
But time ran out for the French, the final score, Canada 3, France 2.
Czechoslovakia should have gone into game two against Norway as red hot favourites,
but recently they've lost many of their top players to the Professional League in North America.
But here in France you wouldn't have thought so.
Their 10-1 humiliation of Norway even surprised the Czechs.
The Soviet Union had a monopoly on this sport, winning seven Olympic golds out of the nine times they've entered.
Now with the Commonwealth of Independent States, the name change hasn't affected their form at all.
A rebound, another save, they score!
The Swiss fought back, literally.
Oh, Honiger caught a stick up high and hard right around the face.
Ugly scenes on the ice, but quite the opposite in the stands.
The Swiss weren't producing the goods, the Commonwealth States were having a field day.
Almost top score, seven, nothing.
Ten minutes before the end and with the Swiss down 8-0, a moment to save face with their first and only goal.
Two pours of 16, and the Swiss have finally scored.
The Commonwealth of Independent States are forced to be reckoned with. Final score, 8-1.
Yes, they are true to form, that is an amazing sport to see those fellows going around there,
14-15 stone of them at breakneck speed at one another.
Kamikaze stuff, it's terrific, we'll have more ice hockey right throughout the games.
More after the break.

Coming soon to 9.
You see the hand, goodbye, I'm coming down.
Coming up a little later, our first visit to the ski jumping for the 90 meter competition.
The Finns, the Austrians and the Germans are the traditional powers in ski jumping.
But there's also a young Swiss flyer who has an excellent chance of winning his country's first ever Olympic gold medal in this sport.
His name is Stefan Zund and we're going to meet him right now.
AMP, proudly bringing you Profile of an Olympian.
Franzi Patek's mother is going to church to pray for her son's safety.
When I started with ski jumps, I didn't tell my mother for two months.
He kept it a secret.
After it was already too far, I realized I had no power over him.
I prayed to Mary and to God.
When I told her, she was very, not angry, but upset.
Ariana Patek has reason to fear accidents in the air.
Her husband was killed in a plane crash in 1972.
So it's not only Franzi's jumping, but the travel that keeps mom on her knees.
Many times I want to say, don't go, but he would go anyway.
My father would be really proud of Franzi.
He would be extra, extra proud of him because of the, of the, what he did for, what Franzi did for the family and for the country, Slovenia.
What Franzi did was win last year's world championship.
But that achievement only added to the pressure this 20-year-old is facing.
While his native Slovenia tries to win its independence from Yugoslavia, Franzi's countrymen look to him for a dramatic showing in the Olympics.
That pressure, sometimes I can't find escape.
People expect more success on competition that we will jump for Slovenia, that we show our whole world that we are something.
The psychological pressure on him is pretty strong.
And we're hoping all this doesn't affect his jumping.
The strain of living in a country in the throes of a civil war became even more apparent when this interview was interrupted by the sound of MiG fighters overhead.
As if the threat of all-out war wasn't enough of a distraction, Franzi also had to cope with the death of his older sister to cancer last summer.
That almost made him quit jumping altogether.
After that, I think, what is all this, what is world champion?
That means nothing. That's really nothing against to live.
But then I thought that ski jumps are my life and I enjoy my life that way.
Franzi said his sister told him just before she died to enjoy life to the fullest.
And he seems to be doing just that, even though a congenital defect left him with only one lung.
If doctors didn't tell me that I have only one lung, I wouldn't know.
Neither would anyone else.
Franzi Patek, who always does what he wants, is determined to chase away the strain of the past year.
A year that has left him with a new love of life.
I want to be normal, 20 years old.
I want to do the same thing as others do it.
But sometimes I should be grown up. I should be.
Franzi Patek of Czechoslovakia wants to be a normal 20-year-old,
but I've got to ask him what's so normal about jumping off the 90-metre ski jump.
It is absolutely terrifying.
And we're not trying to confuse you. We will have that profile on Stefan Zund a little later on.
More from Val d'Azer in the downhill right after the break.

So this is a regrowth forest.
Yep, logged about 15 years ago.
Dr Robertson, do the animals really come back after logging?
And the plants.
Look, there's a whole ecosystem being renewed here.
Be better left alone, surely.
Well, all forests suffer disturbance from storms and bushfires, and I think relatively few from logging.
Only about 1% a year.
But the point is, they recover brilliantly because that's the nature of eucalypts.
Welcome back to Albuville for the 16th Winter Olympic Games.
Next out of the gate in the downhill at Val d'Azur, Adrian Duviard, a Frenchman.
Your commentator is David Vine.
Now, the French would cheer again.
One of the bright new star, Adrian Duviard, who is the nephew of one of the great French legends, Henri Duviard.
It's his first Olympic Games.
His uncle was fourth in the slalom back in Seporo in 1972.
Good.
But it's early.
Good.
Enough in the top six in training.
But training is quite often where some of the skiers deceive their opponents.
The technical man, like the other technical man, Paul Acolla, still to come at 27.
And Acolla, without any doubt from the skiing he's been doing here in training, is in there amongst the medals and can well take the gold.
He's after slalom and giant.
He's been brought in to the Swiss time because of his great technical ability.
And Acolla is a very, very big threat and Austria will not be relaxing by any means.
Duviard struggling a bit.
Oh, he's been struggling all the way.
Oh, well done.
Brilliant.
If he could stay on the course.
Full marks for recovery.
No, he's not going to make it.
He's going to make it.
Brilliant. If he could stay on the course, full marks for recovery.
No, I don't.
He's found to have missed the gate there.
Great bit of acrobatics though.
All the French cheers turned to groans because they can see it all.
They can look up the mountain and see all this happening right in front of them.
Sitting in a grandstand.
Watch it all.
Brilliant concept by Rusi and Keeley, this mountain.
Of course they built on it.
Duviard, look at that.
Straight down, skis all over the place.
Stand up.
Franco Colchuri of Italy.
Two Colchuris, race for Italy.
Franco has got the place in this team.
And 1.6 down at the 1.13 mark.
The only real form is that a nice place on the ice in the lumps in the run of Kitschwool this season.
Still a big French chance for Frank Picard to come after Colchuri.
It was a surprise bronze medal last time.
And also, of course, was the super giant slalom champion in Calgary.
You tend to forget that.
You think that Picard is just the bronze for them.
But he had gold and bronze.
Picard's the next to Steve from France.
And he's the big national hero.
And 27 at the top of Switzerland.
Race still very much on and a good place by Colchuri there.
Night, 1.7 down.
Brilliant rock.
France and Picard, their Olympic hero.
And I can tell you the whole of this giant commentary area here is rocking with people stamping their feet.
It's good.
At 0.34, this way down the mountain, Picard could be doing it again.
Nobody rated him at all in Calgary.
He got the bronze behind Zufriggen and Muller.
And Picard is making them cheer.
Here we go.
It's still good.
Ortleed's gold time on the left.
And Picard has got speed on the bottom section.
Silver.
Brilliant.
He's done it again.
France go wild.
1-0.
Felix Belchick, Canada.
18th in Calgary.
Canadians having so much trouble in the training runs.
All in the stem or making a brave comeback for skiing.
But not getting this right.
And Belchick is down on the clock.
Missing so much.
Rob Boyd, the number one.
And you've got a skier like Boyd who's capable of winning the team.
Spurs on the rest.
Boyd had a pre-season injury.
Came back just from one World Cup race in Garmisch in Germany.
Had a fall and his knee went again.
Had to go home.
After Belchick will come Ackerman.
The big danger for those sitting in the medal position.
Ortleed of Austria.
He's got it.
He's got it.
Nobody would have thought of putting Akula in a downhill team last season.
Suddenly produced a couple of results.
His attitude at all is amazing.
I don't care, he said.
I want slaloms, giant slaloms.
Technical skills.
What matters in life.
And then he produces runs like he's done in training.
Oh, and what has happened here?
It looks like Akula.
It is.
Akula's gone on the traverse.
Wow.
That's a recording of Akula at the top part of the course.
And Paul Akula, all getting excited about him.
So was he, I'm sure, and probably over excited.
And Heinz of Switzerland doesn't get a medal.
And Akula, another big threat, is out.
And there'll be nothing for Switzerland.
A mountain that's provided shock after shock here today.
It's still Ortlieb in gold, Picard for France in silver,
and Marder for Austria in bronze.
Volsmeier pushed out of it.
Heinz are dropped down to six, and nothing for Akula.
He won't believe it, and neither can anybody else at the moment, I can tell you.
Right.
Five, four, three, two.
Kyle Rasmussen, United States.
Lytton Aspen, the jet-set area of American skiing.
What a regular on the World Cup circuit season of racing.
Five, about the 128, 130s.
cardi능
Looking at the performance of Frank Picard, France's hero in that silver medal position.
And the great Bernard Roussi designed this course and Peter Muller, the Swiss racer,
have won medals in the downhill in successive games.
Roussi gold in 72 and silver in 76, Muller silver in silver 84 and 88.
Now Picard has joined that exclusive club, well he has at the moment because he's sitting
there in the silver medal position above Marder, just that tenth of a second,
separating gold, silver and bronze. What a race.
And still enjoying it here on the best day you could hope for.
Sort of conditions that Martin and Graham Bell have got to take advantage of.
The course is so well prepared. I know it's technical and very difficult.
Martin is a racer who normally likes the harder, icier motorway thrusts of downhill.
Rather than the turns that have been introduced into this course.
But I think it's a great course. Spectacular and providing tremendous
entertainment. So are all the people here, especially the French for Picard.
Carrie Mullin from the home of the last Winter Olympics gallery.
Mullin has had one, two, three falls I think in training.
Just doesn't seem to be able to stay on the mountain.
Canada without Ed Podovinsky, a very good young downhiller.
He had a big fall yesterday. Bad knee injury which put him out of the team.
Mullin, he's all over the place. Stand up.
All gone there. You can see the skis wobbling.
He'd lost all the line totally. So at least Mullin has finished, but it won't
count. Gunskier coming here could produce a surprise.
And Franco Martin of Italy. He's produced two or three very, very good
training runs. He's the number four Italian, but he's been
brought into this team at the expense of Mikkel Maier, a very experienced Italian.
He got the fourth place. Maier still coming back from the Dibbini and
driven it 1.69 down at the moment. Colturi of Italy, up there in tenth place
at the moment. The Italians got a team together here.
Mullin is here. We'll be watching in the future.
2.15 down. It's not a medal chance, of course.
Shows good form, good line, Martin. 2.11 off the pace.
Very respectable in a quality field like this.
Not as good as the training. Now the Canadian, Roman Torn, the 21-year-old.
Skied one in Weggen, the longest race of the business, the great race of the
Lagerhorn. Turin's catching about here.
He's had two falls in training, and he's got another one on race day.
Big safety mattresses there, lots of crash matting and padding.
This course has been built with great emphasis on safety, quite rightly.
Yes, it's a dangerous course, no doubt about that.
You've got to be right on your medal there. There are the official placings as it stands
right now. There's still a way to go.
Ortlieb of Austria-Lise from Picard of France, who was the bronze medalist at
Calgary, and Maata is in there with the bronze at the present time.
But as I said, more of the men's downhill a little later.
But when we come back, we're on our backs in the luge.
Well, Pete seems to have everything under control.
We haven't got a lot we always wanted to do.
The morning is yet ahead.
You'll always get emergency medical treatment straight away, but how long should you have

Midday returns with special guests, Sir Peter Ustinoff, Phyllis Diller and Bob Horne.
You're very popular.
It's Midday with Ray Martin on Channel 9.
Fortunately, there are those who can relate.
Well, a little earlier we saw the first run for the men in the Luge Singles Competition.
They each get four runs.
Remember, two today and two tomorrow with the best aggregate time deciding the medals.
So lie back and put your feet up as we return to Lapland for the second of those four runs.
Your commentator once again, John Fay.
At the start, Norbert Huber of Italy.
Through one run, he is fifth in the competition.
I think with Norbert, we're going to get a good idea if this track has slowed down a
lot since the first run because of the sun that's beating down on some of the curves
here and the softer ice will cause the runners to dig into the ice more and slowly sled
down.
So Norbert should be able to tell us by virtue of his time how slow the track has gotten.
The oldest of the four sliding Huber brothers is brother Arnold, a defending world champion
who did not qualify for the Olympics.
Brother Bill Fried is competing here in doubles and his brother Gunter is Italy's top bobsled
driver.
He is flying 79 miles an hour going into the finish curve.
45.4, a tenth of a second faster than his time of this morning.
So it doesn't appear that the track has slowed down.
It certainly hasn't.
We could see another track record.
Now Marcus Rock in third position.
Marcus says he is not a fan of this track.
He believes the start does not lead into the first curve smoothly and we certainly saw
evidence of that in the first run today.
That's right a lot of problems out of these first couple of curves on that first run.
The ice is real slick.
Great start for Marcus.
That's about the same, a little bit slower than his first few times.
He made a couple of mistakes on his first run.
His feet went down.
He bopped the wall going into curve 17.
I think he's going to have a lot better run this time.
In one run he was only 16 100th behind the leader, J.J.
Rock.
Rock falls his sled.
Suzy, did you have any names for your sled?
No, I just said get me down.
That's all I told my sled.
Having a great run so far.
Marcus Rock in first place at this point.
Look how far back he gets on that sled.
Aerodynamic.
45.3.
And at the moment he is leading the competition.
At the start the leader after the first run, Georg Hackel of Germany.
After each of the first three sliders this morning set a track record.
Hackel as the fourth slider came down and bettered all three of them at 45.19.
He blew out of that start.
Let's see what his time is.
Boy, second fastest but he had a real powerful start.
He's only got to shave off 1900s of a second off of his first heat time to get into 44
seconds.
I don't think anybody would have predicted they were going to go this fast on this track
today.
Boy, he's looking great.
127.2 kilometers per hour.
That's 79 miles per hour down this Alburoville track.
He's looking great but he's in second position behind Brock.
And he closed the gap.
45.351.
Watch his leg thrust out of this start.
Boom.
Quick paddles.
Great starter.
He improved a lot on that start this year.
Georg says that is his biggest improvement over 1988.
They built him a start ramp near his home.
Since then his start has been much better.
Marcus Smith second after the first run.
Marcus has had to fight off injuries.
He broke his left ankle in 1989 and his right ankle in 1990.
Marcus is a big surprise to be in second place after the first heat.
I think everybody thought he could be a spoiler but I don't think anyone thought he'd be
in second place after the first heat.
That's a lofty perch for him.
I might be surprised if he maintains that.
He's made such a dramatic improvement over last March in the Olympic Test Event here
in Lafonte.
He's been his 23rd.
He's a testament to the depth of his strong Austrian team though.
He was in second place after the first heat.
Brock was in third.
His coaching they have this year has been fantastic.
At the start Jens Müller of Germany fourth after the first run today.
John, how much of a disadvantage is it for Müller that he is the 20th slider here in
the second heat?
Well normally I would say it's a big disadvantage but for some reason it seems like this track
is even speeding up a little bit.
So I really don't think it's going to hurt him this run.
That's one strong start.
Jens Müller is one of the most experienced at all.
Big mistake.
He's bipped the wall coming out of curve five.
That's going to slow him down.
You'll see it in the first split time here.
Eleventh place way back.
He's a competitor though.
He's going to claw his way back up to the top.
Müller the gold medal from Calgary uncharacteristically having some problems at the beginning of
this run.
Traveling at better than 78 miles per hour through the speed trap.
He's recovered nicely coming down through the bottom part of this track but that mistake
at the top is going to hurt him.
Cross the line at 45.598.
And the standings after the second run in the luge.
Huckle leads from Schmidt, Proch, Huber and Hasselrieder.
Remember there are two more runs to go to decide who will be the gold medalist.
Just imagine those little slays just weigh just 22 kilograms and they're pulling three
and four G's as they go around those bends.
After the break we go to Les Aces for the cross country a change of pace.

Welcome back.
Now we're off to LazyZ.
33 kilometers from Albuville, a family resort famous for its easy runs.
But there's nothing easy about what's happening there today.
It's the first cross country event of the Olympic program, the women's 15 kilometer
race.
Brady Halls reports.
LazyZ, 2000 meters in altitude, exceptional snowfall and littered with hundreds of kilometers
of cross country trails.
To many cross country is the most demanding of Olympic sports.
Skiers have little body fat, wiry bodies and powerful legs.
The Scandinavians and Russians dominate the sport.
After all, its origins go back 4,000 years when the neighboring countries used to cross
country ski just to get around.
Norway, Sweden, Finland and the former Soviet Union have won all but 11 of the 213 men's
and women's cross country ski medals.
There are no Australians in this 15 kilometer event.
These are the ones to watch.
The Commonwealth of Independent States, Reza Smithanina, at 39, her Olympic success dates
back 16 years when she won gold in the 10 kilometer event at the 1976 Innesbrook Games.
Since she's picked up two more gold, five silver and a bronze.
Fellow countrywoman Lubov Ergorova is another to watch, 29th in 1989, 6th in 1990 and 3rd
last year.
23 year old Alana Valby won the opening World Cup race of the season.
Like others from the Independent States, she too is competing under the one United Olympic
flag.
Lithuania's Vida Vensini won the first gold in the 10 kilometer event at Calgary in 1988,
another to watch.
They start 30 seconds apart, using their long poles they gain momentum, course being evenly
divided into flat, uphill and downhill.
At the first time point in this gold medal decider, the Independent States took a commanding
lead with Ergorova out in front, Smithanina behind and the Czechs and Finns closing in.
As Norway's Helene Inge Nebraaten was pushed on by her coach, the Independent States stretched
their lead.
An exhausted Ergorova crossed the line in an exceptional time.
The Independent States looking confident for the gold, the race was now on for the silver
and bronze and the Finns had their eyes on them.
It wasn't one of their favorites, but an outsider, Marut Lukharinen, who was cutting down the
other Russian skiers.
Lukharinen did it to grab the silver, 11 seconds behind her, Valby of the Independent States.
So after the opening medal event, the Independent States snatched the first gold and bronze
with Finland a silver.
Radio Hall's reporting there.
When we go back, when we come back, we go back to Valazier to see Australia's Stephen

Wow, what a game.
It's one of the faces of France.
Well for all of us Australians here and back at home, there's probably no Aussie who deserves
Olympic success more than our Alpine racer Stephen Lee.
These are his third Olympics and they come near to the end of a 10-year career in which
he's been pretty much a one-man band for Australia on the international circuit.
Can he go out in a blaze of glory?
We're about to find out as we head back now to Val d'Azur for more of the men's downhill.
Three, two, one.
Stephen Lee, Australia.
The lone Australian.
A man from Falls Creek who's been around the mountains for a long time now.
He's won the Olympic Games, 19th to 4th, 22nd Calgary, won a super giant slalom race which
is the race for the big half turn which this has got.
If you wouldn't think so, look at that time.
Stephen, unlike most people, decided to use longer skis rather than shorter ones.
It looks like it's a bad decision.
The one-man Australian team.
It's not the type of result that Stephen was looking for and nevertheless we've got Charles
Stewart on the mountain with Stephen right now.
Stephen, you must be a little bit disappointed with that.
What went wrong?
Well, on the top there's the first compression turn.
I went in pretty much the same line as yesterday and to get it tight you really have to be
on the limit and I had the skis coming around quite nicely and then there's a little roll
in it.
Just before the rail the both skis just broke and I flew off the rail and landed on the
side and skidded off the course.
Bit disappointing for you?
Yeah, I thought I just had a good chance to ski really well today and it's just one of
those things when you ski on the limit, it's not too far to push it over the other side
and I guess that's what I did today.
Well you've got two more cracks at it.
How do you feel about what's upcoming?
Well, I'm still home for a good result tomorrow.
I continued on and I think I skied the bottom part of the course relatively well and then
the super G which I guess will be my best event.
Now your form has been a lot better in the last few weeks than it was early in the World
Cup season.
Why is there such a difference?
I guess getting over the back injury and everything was starting to come together nicely.
I got some new skis which are these downhill skis with the bigger side cut and I felt more
comfortable on them and the confidence to ski, you know, being back in shape was a big
thing and being able to ski without any pain and that's what comes into account, you know,
you just start to relax and can really let the skis run.
Now has it surprised you some of the results here today?
Not really, you know, it was a wide open field today and it was anyone's race and I think
Patrick's been skiing well in the tough courses this year.
He's been unlucky not to win and this was his big breakthrough I guess, you know, so
I think if I thought that Marta would have been in with a chance and Picard's always
a threat, you know, they've had those, the French guys probably know this course the
best and he's in pretty good shape I think, he's been hiding his cards quite well.
What about for the rest of the events?
Who do you expect to see coming through?
Well I think for the combined it's going to be between Giordale and Ocola.
I guess they both went out today but I'd say that they'd be the two main rivals in that
event.
The Super G, it's a tough hill and it's quite different to all the Super G hills that we
skied on this year so that's almost wide open but you'd have to say Ocola and Marta also
and Giordale would be in there for that one.
And the technical disciplines?
The technical disciplines you'd have to say, Tombo would be outright favourite, I mean
he's won just about every race he's finished and if he hasn't won he's come second so I
think he's a big pressure performer when he skis at home in front of bigger crowds than
this he skis his best so I think it would be an upset if he didn't win.
And what of Stephen Lee for the next few days?
Well I've got another two races tomorrow and the next day so the same program goes, we'll
go back and analyse what happened today and try and ski a better race tomorrow and then
take a day or two off after the combine and do Super G training until the weekend and
concentrate on that one.
Great Stephen thanks very much and lots of luck.
Thank you.
Yeah well he tried and he tried hard but just wasn't good enough.
The man who was good enough in the second gold medal of the 16th Winter Olympic Games
was Patrick Oetlieb of Austria and there you go for the Garland presentation.
The medals are presented a little later on so Patrick Oetlieb of Austria picks up the
gold, Frank Piccard of France does one better than he did and Calgary's got the silver
and Gunther Marder also of Austria has got the bronze so the Austrians are doing very
very well in the downhill.
The second gold medal of these Olympic Games and what a fabulous result there for Patrick
Oetlieb.
One can only imagine what it feels like.
Skis jumping is next at Courcheval.

You're probably not going to believe it as you watched our next event, but the competitors are never more than seven or eight meters above the ground.
Nevertheless, nothing in this world could persuade me to try it.
It's the ski jumping from Courchevel and the first contest of these games is from the 90-meter hill.
Ari Pekka Nikola is the elder statesman of this Finnish team.
He has stayed with the traditional classic style of jumping.
So far this year, he has finished second and third in World Cup competition.
We've talked about flying, Frank. Just listen to this and you'll really hear how they fly.
Very short. I did not see what he did.
Oh, he is extremely discouraged on this one.
He shouldn't be.
But you know, you've only got the one chance, but he is very, very short.
A classic example, perhaps, that the traditional method is not stacking up against the V-Stylers.
Only 76 meters for Nikola of Finland.
He is in 16th place.
Gero Kamerahako of Japan, a V-Styler who has been prolific in training yesterday,
finished seventh in the second round of training, and Frank, the Japanese are an unknown quantity here at Courchevel.
They've been rebuilding the team for the last two years and working very hard on it.
Most of them are jumping in the V, but they have trouble with the landing.
Again, all these skiers that I've seen have trouble with the landing in the past week of training
are showing they know what to do on a competition day.
This is where experience comes through.
They can do the training, you know, slack off a little bit,
but when they know they have to do it to get the points, they can.
Tomohiro Higurako of Japan, 80 meters even, that moves him up to seventh place in the first round.
To the top of the in-run, Dieter Thoma of Germany is the next jumper.
He's been experimenting with both the V and the traditional method here in training over the last three days.
Basically, it's sticking with the traditional.
He will go to a small V but doesn't get the advantage of the air going between the ski and the body.
A little bit of a V, a little bit of a twist in the air, but a good landing.
Where he lost a bit that time was he got over his skis, but as the twist came on, he started to back up.
As soon as you back up, you've got air against the front of your body, giving you some resistance,
and it causes the distance to be a little shorter than you'd like.
The next thing he needs is 79.5 meters for Dieter Thoma of Germany.
That will leave him ninth overall in his competition, and he's not too happy about that.
Ernst Vittori of Austria, another member of that Austrian Air Force.
He's only 5'6", 125 pounds.
Some say he has bird hormones.
He can fly like a balsa wood glider.
Big jump, big jump, friend.
You know, it's so encouraging to see him put that landing in.
He had trouble in practice where he had a fall four days ago,
and he actually hurt himself and skipped a couple of jumps.
But to control it, get the both skis back in, because this is what we're concerned about, the safety when they use the V.
It's very hard to pull those skis back in and to put a proper safe landing in.
Ernst Vittori, the veteran on the Austrian team, looking at the scoreboard, awaiting his results.
Let's get another look from the reverse angle, Frank.
Did his skis go out? That's what gives him the flight.
You can see the air going between the ski and up over the body.
And that shot really shows you how far these young men are falling.
Stefan Talberg of Sweden, as a brother, Per Inge Talberg, who failed to make the cut for the 90-meter competition on that strong Finnish team,
awaiting his first jump in the first round.
Talberg is ranked 12th overall so far this season in the World Cup.
Stefan Talberg of Sweden in his first season on the World Cup, ranked 12th so far this year with 57 points.
Oh, trouble with the landing.
Just got to say, much better in the air. He's been unsure of himself in the air all week.
I caught a bobbling, wobbling back and forth.
This time he was very steady in the air, hung on to the last, but got a little too much weight on his right foot,
letting the left foot kind of wander out, and that can be very dangerous.
Traditional stylers are having trouble with that crosswind. Let's look again.
It's not a wind morse, it's the continual air moving across. Watch, his weight will go on his right foot.
80 meters for Talberg. That'll leave him 12th in this competition in the first round.
Yes, and probably just a little fortunate there.
Immediately after the break, we continue with the ski jumping from Korshaval.
I'm ready to fly, but I ain't got wings.
A broken france.
Hello? Yeah, I wonder if you could help me. I've got a problem with my go-go mobile.
Go-go mobile? Yeah, I've got a problem with my go-go mobile and I was wondering if...
G-O, G-G-O. I've got a problem with my go-go mobile and I'm...
Yeah? 1954? Yeah. No, not the dark, not the dark.
So they always think it's the dark. It's a weird rapper. I tell you.

National 9 News at 6, simply the best news for years.
This is Steve DeLope, the hometown hero. He is from Courchevel, 19 years of age,
ranked 31st so far this year in the World Cup standings.
And he should know this jump very well, Frank. He's been here for over a year practicing.
This is the crowd cheering him on.
There he goes.
Oh, what a nice first round jump for the Frenchman.
Very respectable. A little slow getting on his keys.
Does trip with the prevailing air going across the hill.
Doesn't let it bother him. He hangs on as long as he can and finishes it off with a nice tunnel mark landing.
That's the one foot in front of the other to show the judges that you've got good control of your jump.
Steve DeLope of France, appreciative of the crowd support, but not too happy with that first jump of 78.5 meters.
It'll leave him 11th in this first round.
This is Zahary Sotorov of Bulgaria.
Another of the traditional style jumpers. He's in his third season on the World Cup.
No points this season, no points last year. Not a real factor here, Frank.
Comes out a little too high on takeoff.
See the high body position all the way through the flight. What's happening there is you're getting the air and it's causing drag.
You're actually dragging. You're not really flying that well.
You're acting like a sail instead of a glider.
Correct.
Zahary Sotorov of Bulgaria, 74 meters on that jump, leaving him well down in the standings in 23rd place.
This is Dionys Vodnev of Team United, the former Soviets.
He's 21 years of age in his third season on the World Cup.
He's getting on his skis very quickly, but has had trouble putting the telemark landing in. We'll see if he can do it this time.
A little bit of a V.
No, he's not happy. He had a lot more distance than that. He had a lot of air between his skis and his body.
He was getting some drag in there. And as I said, he did not get the landing in.
So he's got reasonable distance, but not going to get good style points.
Dionys Vodnev of Team United is awarded 79.5 meters for that jump, and he is 16th in the first round.
Well, the Swiss are one of the powers in ski jumping, and this is one of their best jumpers.
He is Martin Truens, a V-Styler, an accomplished V-Styler who's been using it most of this year, and he's only a rookie at 21 years of age.
He's got, what I say, a very small V. It's nice to see it. He has to get the skis wider than the shoulders so the air can pass between the shoulder and the ski.
Very smooth in the flight.
Back a little bit. If you notice, he had drag. He had air coming out of the front of the body.
He had some lift over the back, but the drag coming out of the front of the body caused it to pop into the hill a little too short.
Martin Truens, in a distance of 80 meters even. That'll leave him in 12th place in this competition, Frank.
28th in the game, Ivo Pestini.
Now the first of the Italian team, Ivo Pertail from Pradazzo, site of one of the World Cup events this year.
Pertail is in his third season from the World Cup circuit.
Way back. Way back.
You know, if you look smooth, you wonder why they're not going that far. It's right on the takeoff.
If they come out high, they get that air hitting them right on the chest.
Yes, they can get over, but they've lost just that fraction of momentum, and they just can't regain it.
Watch how high. Very high with the body, but there. He goes over the skis very quickly, but that fraction of a second on this hill just kills you.
76 meters even for Pertail of Italy. He's in 21st place.
Well, the American flags here at Courchevel are being waved to receive this man, Robert Holm of the U.S., a newcomer to the sport.
In fact, he's not even listed in the American Olympic Guide.
He tends to drag his skis coming off takeoff. Yes, dedicate there.
When I say drag his skis coming off takeoff, the skis actually go down for a second.
The air gets on top, slows his momentum down. He has to concentrate on picking them back up, and you're just dead in the water on this hill if you do that.
Robert Holm getting some valuable experience.
77 meters on that jump, and that will leave him 24th overall in the first round.
The French fans here giving him a warm reception.
It's been a beautiful day for ski jumping, Frank, about 8 to 10 degrees and Sunday.
This is John Langlois, or Tad Langlois, as he's known to his friends.
Tad coming from his mother's maiden name of Thaddeus. He's in his fifth year with the U.S. team.
Yes, much better flight, but did not get that landing in. Can't lose probably three points for judges at this.
The judges really want to see that telemark from the V-Stylers. They want to see it for safety reasons.
The safest way to land is with the one foot in front of the other. So they have said this year, you must do it.
80 meters for John Langlois of the United States, moving him up in this competition to 14th place.
Nicolas Jean-Prost of France getting a warm hand from the partisan crowd here at Courchevel.
Jean-Prost in his third season has yet to score any points this year.
A traditional style jumper who usually puts a good landing in.
There. That's what the judges like to see. They like to see that controlled jump.
He had total control of that. Maybe could have gotten him a little quicker on takeoff, but the arms are nice and tight.
The skis are nice and tight together, and you finish it off with the one foot in front of the other.
The purists of this sport like to see that classic legs together style and that smooth telemark landing.
81 meters for Jean-Prost of France. That'll move him into seventh place.
The fans are happy about that.
This is Samo Gostisa, a V-Styler from Ljubljana, Slovenia. He's a rookie, only 19 years of age, but he has been one of the dominant ski jumpers so far this year.
A little unsure of himself in the air. Much better this time. Much, much, much more control.
He's really, really surprised me on that one. He's been bobbling, been wandering around, not putting a landing in.
He did exactly the opposite this time. Here's that they have competition, and he did everything he was supposed to.
Got out quickly over skis, nice control, and a good landing.
Gostisa of Slovenia, happy with that. 84 meters, but that's not good enough to catch her overall leader right now.
He remains Ernst Vittori of Austria in first place with the longest jump so far in the first round of 88 meters.
Jens Weissflog of Germany. He won the gold medal in the 90-meter competition at the 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympic Games, and was a silver medalist in the 120-meter competition.
Oh, just a gorgeous traditional jump. Now, he's got an advantage over everybody else. He can do either the V or the traditional at will.
The next jump you might see him do the V if he feels like it, but he controlled that. Arms didn't move, legs didn't move, skis nice and tight together, and a good landing.
Not only good distance, but good style.
Weissflog, former East German, one of the sparrow-like floaters, as they call them here in ski jumping, with 84 meters in that jump.
That will leave him in fourth place in the first round.
This is Mika Lattinen, one of the newcomers on the Finnish team. He's only 18 years of age, and in his first season with the big boys on this circuit.
Very impressive in training. On the first day we saw him, he went from 18th to fourth to first on his last round.
But you have to remember, in training, we were only looking at them on distance. Today, it's distance and style.
A nice jump. That's not going to be, it's nice and smooth, but it's not going to be long enough to be a winning jump. I don't think so.
Ernst Vittori, of course, with 88 meters, the longest jump so far in the first round.
Mika Lattinen in his first Olympic Games for the Finns, staying with the traditional style.
85.5 meters for the young Finn. Nice and smooth, very steady traditional style, doesn't move, but a fraction short. I can't see quite why he was shorter than he should have been.
The second Canadian in this competition is Ron Richards of Oshawa, Ontario. He is a veteran in his 13th and last season because he plans to retire after these Games.
Little shaky for Ron. A good steady jump. Ron has improved his takeoff motion 100% this past week. Before, he was going up a little too high, all his velocity was going straight up.
He has got it going forward, he does get a smooth flight, does get a good landing, but will need more distance if he wants to progress up and get a better position in this competition.
It's been a tough year for Ron Richards as he tried to convert to the V, couldn't handle it, stayed with the traditional method and here in his first round, only 79 meters.
This is Jaroslav Sakala of Czechoslovakia, a traditional jumper, ranked 11th overall this season in the World Cup.
A little drift to the right like we're seeing, caused by the air going across the hill, doesn't let him bother, just pull it around and get a nice smooth landing, but again a little short of a distance you're going to require for a top 10 finish today.
The stylish Sakala of Czechoslovakia is an auto mechanic by trade. As he turns and looks for his score, 83.5 meters, that'll put him in 7th place.
This is Martin Halvarf, a 17 year old Austrian who's really been raising some eyebrows on the circuit this year. He has one win, a second place finish and a third place finish so far this season on the World Cup and he's only in his first year.
Oh good carry. Oh what a big jump.
And did you see how smooth that was? Yes he uses the V, but yes he gets them out, leans in there, lets the air go between the ski and the body, getting that extra lift. Did he ever finish that jump off nicely?
Frank it appeared as though he actually out jumped the K point.
The K point, the 90 meter morning part, is supposed to be the longest distance you can jump safely. Yes, he has passed it. Look how steady.
Once he goes past that K point, the hill actually curves back toward him and so he's getting more impact on landing.
That jump of 90.5 meters will put Martin Halvarf of Austria in first place ahead of Ernst Vittori, his teammate.
There it is again Frank in slow motion. Now look, what's the matter with that jump for the judges? Everything is so steady, there's so much control and watch, a nice landing.
90.5 meters, half a meter past that critical point, the K point on the hill.
Tony Niemannen, the 16 year old schoolboy sensation from Finland. Can he beat the Austrians? They're 1-2-3 right now.
Look at that in-run position. Oh yes, oh yes, what a jump. Did you see that acceleration off takeoff?
What I mean is, if you're trying to throw that ball, think of a ball, I want to throw it as far as I can. His body does that.
That curve is just so perfect. Then when he gets out there, he just hangs on.
88 meters even for Tony Niemannen of Finland. That will be enough to move him into a second place tie with Ernst Vittori of Austria.
Tony Niemannen in his first year on the World Cup, Frank already four victories this year, including three at that prestigious Four Hills tournament.
Well he can't drive a car, he's not old enough to shave, but he can fly. Tony Niemannen, his second, 16 year old from Finland.
Austria's Hova is leading after the first round for Vittori, Felder and Hollen, but there's just the first round, gold medals, up for grabs tomorrow.
After the break, we go and look at the freestyle action in team.
It's Mac time now for McChicken too, the taste you adore, you love the value too. It's Mac time now for McDonald's.
McChicken too, so much more for only $2.40.
In both the NRMA and Motor Magazine Awards, Mitsubishi recently won the important Best Family Sedan category with the new TR Magna.
NRMA's road test engineer Bob Hudson justified selecting the Magna in a category previously dominated by Ford and Holden,
by saying that TR Magna imparted a feeling of class and solidity in the way it looked and drove that put it ahead of the pack.
Yeah, that's correct.
But you buy one and get one for free.
But how much would that cost?
If you're getting one for free as well, that's good.
It's a really good price.

I was like Mount St. Helens, Frank.
Murphy faces her biggest test yet.
You think there's a restroom in the back? Is your bladder full?
Is she pregnant?
You're 42 years old.
It's a medical beer?
What are the odds?
I did it once.
The suspense is too much.
Is she pregnant or not? And whose baby is it?
When Candace Bergen returns.

On day two at the Winter Olympic Games, women's speed skating.
3000 meters is the journey and every step counts.
We'll skate along with them.
We'll see who's wearing the golden wings at the ski jumping.
The 90 meter event. We'll have more of that.
Men's cross country.
30 kilometers along the torture trails of Azazie.
And the final two runs in the men's luge.
There's gold at the end of that trip as well.
We're off to Val d'Azur for more downhill racing.
This time it's part of the men's combined event.
And our own Stephen Lee will be back on the mountain for that.
Can Danielle and Stephen Khan skate into Australian sporting legend?
The pairs figure skating competition.
That gets underway tonight.
And we'll pad up again for more biff on blades at the ice hockey.
So something for everybody as nine's wide world of sports
invites you to share the pain and the glory of Olympic competition
at these the 16th Winter Games.
Here's another fabulous day of competition.
8.30. You can see it right here on nine's wide world of sports tomorrow.
Or tonight. Gee, I get lost. We're with these time zones right now.
Time now to welcome to our studio the Australian Winter Olympian
with the best chance of success here in France.
The queen of the freestyle aerials, Kirsty Marshall.
Welcome, Kirsty.
Last time we were chatting it was the opening ceremony which was absolutely fabulous.
And of course you've been up to teen today to have a look at some of the men's ballet.
Yes, they had the elimination runs today.
And only the top 16 competitors will go through to the finals tomorrow.
Tell us a little bit about this freestyle ballet.
What are the intricacies? What are we looking for?
Well, I mean it's very difficult because each routine has to be fully choreographed to music.
So the judges are looking for artistic display as well as a degree of difficulty
in the maneuvers that they have to perform.
All right, well let's take a look at some of the action from today.
And sometimes it looks very, very ungainly because I mean running around with those skis
it's just not an easy thing to do, is it?
They make it look very easy.
This is actually Richard Pierce from Canada.
And he actually is a very tall fellow. You can't tell quite easily here.
But it makes it very difficult when he's doing the elegant moves.
He has very good flexibility as well.
I've got to point out that looking at the demonstration sport,
of course what you're hoping for is that we fully fledged metal sport at the next Olympics.
Yes, we certainly do.
Ballet has had a couple of problems only as far as being a judged sport.
But as you can see here the technique that they are using,
they're very defined in their movements, very similar to what you'll see in gymnastics.
Where did it all originate from, Kirsty? What was the concept initially?
It was really just skiers trying to express themselves very well.
This is actually the scores here.
He's scored pretty well on his choreography and his degree of difficulty is a little bit lower
than some of the other competitors.
This is Lane Spina from the USA. His choreography is excellent.
His dance maneuvers are just absolutely perfect.
You'll see he really finishes his tricks off very well.
This is a beautiful maneuver. He's very, very well in control here.
Makes it look incredibly easy.
What sort of snow do you look for?
I mean, the conditions you've got up at teen, are they ideal for this?
This is ideal. You can actually see how, even though they're edging quite hard into the snow,
there's very little of an impression left.
But that's a beautiful move.
Very difficult to get up on your toes and to get your legs so far out.
You know, ideally you have very firm conditions because that way you can really get the edges in
to get the height you need to do your axels.
He scores extra marks depending on how high they lift their leg above their head.
And those tricks.
That is beautiful.
There's a lot of people there like it. There's plenty of screaming going on.
Yes, there certainly is.
It's a very emotive sport, isn't it? I've noticed you too in your freestyle aerials.
You know, when you land, it's almost like, I'm alive, I can do it.
You can puff the air. It's expressive.
It's an absolutely fantastic feeling.
So Lane's degree of difficulty was actually higher than Richard Pierce's,
which has actually given him a few more marks.
Since Fabrice Beccy, he has already won a couple of World Cups in ballet so far this year.
A fairly new competitor.
And his dance is probably one of the best of any competitor out there at the moment.
Beautiful trick. Finishes all of his axels off perfectly.
That was a one and a half twisting gut flip.
But you can see how his dance is very well timed to the music.
And his choice of music is very good as well.
It's a bit like the figure skating. It's so much part of it, isn't it?
You get the right bit of music, you get the people involved straight away.
Yeah, totally.
He's really coming alive to the music. He knows what's coming up.
And he's really enjoying it. He's actually one of the first competitors I've seen
who looks like he's actually enjoying thoroughly what he's doing.
Training on the snow at all times, or are there routines that you can perform away from snowfields
to get the routine right?
The good thing about ballet is it really can be done anywhere.
The slope is consistent. It's ten degrees from top to bottom.
So you'll find a fairly similar slope to that anywhere on any mountain.
Beautiful. He actually pulled quite a face there. He knows he's done an excellent routine.
Fantastic finish.
Fabrice must be happy with that. The crowd, having a hometown crowd, Fabrice loves the crowd.
So I expect he does really well. First position, that's excellent.
Very, very high marks.
Doesn't look as if he's shy, neither?
No, not at all.
Okay, I guess you're looking forward to your competition too. When do you start?
Well, we start training actually tomorrow. We'll train right through to the competition.
We have eliminations on Saturday and the finals on Sunday.
A lot of pressure on you because you're the hot favourite coming into this.
I think there's a lot of pressure for any competition. It doesn't really feel any different.
Plus it's a bit of an advantage for me having already competed on this course and already have done well.
Well, I look forward to you joining us throughout the competition and pleased to very, very well.
All the best out there in the snowfields because you've done all the hard work leading up to it.
There's no doubt about that.
Thank you very much.
Thanks very much, Kirsty.
Yes, an avalanche of action on the Olympic program tomorrow as the 64 nations represented at these winter games
chase more gold, silver and bronze.
And here's how the medal tally looks at the end of the first full day of competition at the 16th Winter Olympics.
There you have Austria, the unified team, France and Finland.
So Austria won gold, unified team won gold.
There is so much more to come here at these Olympic games.
And they are going to be the two powerhouses, the two powerhouse countries at the games here in Alba Vilma, French Alps.
So the curtain has gone up and the show has begun at these 1992 Winter Olympics.
And I trust that what you've seen so far will keep you bringing you back for more.
From high in the French Alps, time to say goodbye until 8.30 tonight, Australian time.
We'll see you then.
See you then.
See you then.
See you then.
See you then.
See you then.
See you then.

Well, you got a room?
Well, I ain't got nothing for nothing.
Not like him and them oldies.
Well, I'm going to pay you.
I'm going to pay you.
In advance.
You got any money?
Mrs. Shea, I just got into town.
I'm kind of broke.
Give me a week, will you?
Come on.
What are you saying?
All time saving.
Come on.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Don't.
Of course, they don't look as nice as they should.
They just moved out last night.
But I'll clean it tomorrow.
Well, Merry Christmas.

You got a minute?
Come here.

Hey, Lipp, it's good to see you.
How you been?
Hey, you're looking terrific.
Have they treated you all right, huh?
Cut that crap.
Okay, what is it?
I can use some money.
You got it.
You ain't got enough there.
I want some action.
Who you working for?
Augie Auger.
Little Augie.
Oh, yeah, right.
I heard about him up in the joint.
What's his angle?
Strike breaking, protection, you know, that kind of bullshit.
Can you deal me in?
You got it.
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow you'll meet Little Augie.
Now.
Okay, we're on strike.
Everyone go home.
Come on.
Get out of here.
Get out of here!
Wait.
What are you doing?
Can't you see it?
The cops are coming in.
You're going to get in.

Come on, get out of here.
Wait! Wait!
It was all agreed. I gave the raise. Everyone is happy.
Tell these men Silverman.
Yes, we're happy.
They're not happy, Mr. Stern.
Get out of here! Get out of here!
Get out! Get out of here!
Wait! Wait!
I'll... I'll...
What was the problem, Mr. Organ? I paid last month.
You're supposed to pay every week, Mr. Stern.
We are your partners, remember?
35% is too much. I can't afford it, Mr. Organ.
From now on it's 50% and you've got to afford it.
I don't have it, I'm telling you!
You're gonna get it.
No, I won't pay!
I'm telling you, you're gonna pay.
No!
No!
Why'd you have to kill him? Now we'll get nothing.
When are you gonna start using your brains instead of your kishkas?
Now everybody in the neighborhood is gonna pay.
What was that again? You want me to do what?
Give him back the money.
Why, for God's sake?
The guy's in politics. He's thick with the unions.
We do him a favor, he's gonna do us a favor.
Shut up with your crap. The strike ends tomorrow, Lepke.
I say it's a big mistake.
50,000 bucks is a mistake? You're out of your mind.
I run this joint and don't you forget it.
Anybody else want to hear to say? Anybody else?
Want to say something?
Uh, Ruben?
Hey, Tannenbaum, how about you, babe? Nothing wrong, huh?
No, no, I figured it.
Well, I think Lepke's right.
Darned you to think, Luciano.
Remember that.
Okay, let's go.
All right, I said, let's go.
Maybe if Little Augie wasn't around, huh?
What's the matter with you?
Nobody talks to Little Augie that way. He's gonna set you up for a hit.
How long we been working for him?
Oh, a couple of years.
Hey, Lepke.
Uh?
Legs diamond in this hall.
Where there's legs diamond, there's all the organs.
No, no, no.
Taxi! Taxi! Come here!
Nice and easy.
Taxi! Come here!
Taxi! Taxi!
Lepke!
Oh, my God, Lepke!
Well?
It's amazing what money'll do.
All our witnesses lost their memories.
That ain't good enough.
I want them all out of the way.
Okay, so I'll kill them off for you.
No, we run a clean business.
You know, you're driving me crazy, Lepke.
Is it yes or is it no?
Yes and no. Call Brooklyn, get Mendy on it.
Mendy, you want to see Mendy?
No, I don't want to see Mendy.
So I'll see him.
No, I don't want you to see Mendy.
I want you to see Ruben.
Ruben.
Ruben'll tell Schwartz and Schwartz'll get the message to Mendy.
Mendy, Ruben and Schwartz are happy.
Two contracts.
Three.
Keep the change.
Oh, thank you, sir.
Good evening, sir.
Good evening, ma'am.
Nice to have you with us.
Hey, Mark.

Tonight on A Current Affair, we live in Australia's worst maritime disaster.
The survivors are taken back under hypnosis to unlock the truth.
What are you doing?
Also, the Australian girls.
Innocent victims.
Of the Japanese job scam.
This week on A Current Affair with Jan Event.
Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. North and South America and all the ships at sea.
Let's go to press. This is Walter Winchell.
Another murder. A second witness to the gangland slaying of little Augie Orden.
Underworld character Legs Diamond was found this morning floating off Coney Island beach with an ice pick in his heart.
First came the doorman of the Topsy-Turvy Club, now Diamond.
Can it be a coincidence that the latest victims were all witnesses to Augie Orden's murder?
It is rumored that Orden's gang has split up between followers of Lucky Luciano and one Mr. Louis Bookhalter, alias Lefty, and his Brooklyn-based mom.
Both Lefty and Luciano and their henchmen are being questioned by the district attorney in connection with these brutal murders.
The police are also searching for a third witness, an unidentified young lady seen frequently in the company of local gangland figures.
Is it true that you and Mr. Luciano are splitting up now that Orden's dead?
Will you take over as head man of your organization now, Mr. Lefty?
My board of directors hasn't decided yet.
Well, how do you feel about Mr. Luciano?
Mr. Luciano and I are in different lines of work. Right, Mr. Luciano?
Well, what's the question?
We're in different lines of work, you and me.
Of course we are. Why do you people ask?
Well, I haven't decided yet.
Hey, Louis, you wouldn't happen to need a lawyer, would you?
Now, why would I need a lawyer? The charges against me were dismissed.
Well, I just thought I'd ask for old-time St. Louis.
Name's Lefty. Don't forget it. Lefty. Spell it right.
Wait a minute. Where do I know you from? Get out of here.
Huh?
My name is Robert Kane. We used to live on the same street when we were kids.
Shapiro. You remember me?
You used to call me Cohen, Louis.
Cohen? You remember Cohen?
Oh, yeah, right. Cohen, huh? Well, look at you. A big time macha now, huh?
A lawyer.
Keep it up, kid.
Louis.
Uh, this is a surprise.
Sit down, please.
I, uh, wish I had a drink or something to offer you.
I wish I had an office to work in.
Yeah.
Sit down.
Right.
What can I do for you?
Are you a good lawyer?
A man with your business interests.
Yeah.
You must have a whole team of lawyers.
True.
But all the guys working for me, they're gonifs. I can't trust any of them.
You're clean.
Obviously.
Look, I'd like to pay you to watch after my affairs, you know?
Look after these guys. I need somebody that I can depend on.
Somebody that I can trust.
What do you say?
Can I think it over for a while?
How much time do you need?
You haven't changed at all, Louis.
How much time do you need?
What is it?
There's a young lady out here to see the counselor.
You've got business.
You can't keep business waiting.
Um, I'll just be a minute, Bernice, okay?
I don't mind waiting.
Oh, we were just leaving.
Shapiro, get the car.
Oh.
Are you sure you're finished?
Oh, yes, absolutely.
Just, uh, come right in, please.
Well, don't work too hard, Cone.
You look at me as if you know me, do you?
Do I?
Um, Louis, I'd like you to meet, um, Bernice Greenbaum.
Bernice, I'd like you to meet Louis Buchalter.
Um, he's an old friend.
Well, Bobby's known me all my life.
How come we never met?
Um, I was away a lot.
Oh, at college?
Well, sort of.
Yeah, well, I got a good education.
So I'll hear from you, right?
Yeah, right. See you around.
I can't believe this.
You've never been in a joint like this before?
Pop always wants to know where I'm going.
He wouldn't believe it if he could see it.
I mean, a place with your own key and...
I'll give you a key to the world if you want it.
I'll take you to places that your Poppa wouldn't even believe.
I'll take you to the top, Miami Beach, Hollywood.
How would you like that?
You don't have to do all that for me.
I'm happy just getting out of Brooklyn once in a while.
Hello, Lebke.
Albert, your taste is getting better.
Thanks.
Anything else you want?
Introduce me to your friend.
I'm Albert Anastasia.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Anastasia.
I'm a little worried about you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Anastasia.
Italian?
Yes.
Where the food is good and so are the manners.
Come on, Bernice, really.
No, don't go.
Fill up a bottle of Chateau Margot for them, please.
Where you going, Lebke?
Lebke, what is it, something I said?
What's the matter?
You kite bastard.
You know, you join a fancy private club like this,
