Abstract

The article features Vladimir Yashchenko, the 18-year-old Ukrainian who broke Dwight Stones' world record by using a straddle jump at the U.S.-Soviet Union junior track tournament in Richmond, Virginia. He reset the high jump record at 7' 7" and became the youngest world-record holder in the event's history. He also rekindled the debate over which is the better technique between the straddle style and the Fosbury Flop. Other jumpers who use the straddle-style are also noted.

Upon agreement with Soviet Lawn Tennis Federation Secretary Vladimir A. Golenko, the first 2 matches will be held in Moscow and the remaining 3 will be played at Philadelphia, Cleveland and Indianapolis respectively.

Abstract

This book presents inter-disciplinary perspectives on the maritime journeys of the Macassan trepangers who sailed in fleets of wooden sailing vessels known as praus from the port city of Makassar in southern Sulawesi to the northern Australian coastline. These voyages date back to at least the 1700s and there is new evidence to suggest that the Macassan praus were visiting northern Australia even earlier. This book examines the Macassan journeys to and from Australia, their encounters with Indigenous communities in the north, as well as the ongoing social and cultural impact of these connections, both in Indonesia and Australia.
