Soviets make big $ on Olympics

According to the Los Angeles Times, the Russians are demanding that each visitor post a deposit of SLSSO months in advance the games. And for this, they are guaranteeing nothing They won t say if the $1,550 will cover the entire cost, nor will they assure depositors of a seat on a specific airline, or a room in a specific hotel-, or any particular number and type of Olympic tickets. The games are to last 16 days. However, Americans attending them will be permitted to stay in Moscow in most cases only five days. The other 11 they will have to spend in Leningrad and Kiev, watching such soul-stirring events as the preliminary soccer matches. E. Wallace Lawrence, president of the Russian Travel Bureau, which is representing the Soviet government in making arrangements to attend the games, says the Russians so tar have agreed to make available 1.7 Olympic events tickets per day to each American tourist, if they can. * This means the American will be able to watch exactly seven events during his stay in Moscow and take home one-half of a ticket as a souvenir.
