The American basketball team announced that they would not give up first place to Russia,

　　after a disputable end to their contest.The game had ended in disturbance.It was thought at first that the United States had won,

　　by a single point,

　　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 other,

　　and another player popped it into the basket.It was the first time the U．S.A. had ever lost an Olympic basketball match.Experts discussed the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand.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 in non­national terms,

　　might be too much to hope for.But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism.

　　D．led to more and more misunderstanding and hatred

　　37．What did the manager mean by saying,
