Trivia Time
Highlights of
The Olympics
by John Shiffert, University Relations
The
just-concluded
Summer
Olympics had a lot of highlights,
from Gaby Douglas to Michael
Phelps to Meb to Sir Paul
McCartney, singing “Hey Jude” to a
packed house in the Opening
Ceremonies. However, for one
observer, a particularly memorable
moment was the opening song, the
classic British hymn, “Jerusalem,”
which also happens to be the school
song of Germantown Friends School
in Philadelphia.
Even if you’ve never heard of GFS,
you’ve heard “Jerusalem” if you saw
the closing scene of the 1981
Academy Award-winning film,
“Chariots of Fire,” wherein Harold
Abrahams, one of the two men who
would not compromise their princi-
ples, was laid to rest after a life of tri-
umph that included the gold medal in
the 100 meters in the 1924 Olympics
in Paris. The counterpoint to the
opening theme by Vangelis (which
itself won an Oscar), “Jerusalem”
also gave the movie its title, from the
line, “bring me my chariot of fire.”
The first correct answer in regard to
the film that featured “Jerusalem”
came from Scott McElroy, followed
by Jill Ellington, David Ludley,
Vickie Fennell Smith, Rob Taylor
and Kurt-Alexander Zeller.
With the election less than two
months away, we’ll return to presi-
dential trivia. What “issue” might
have caused a constitutional stir if
the current Republican candidate’s
father had indeed been nominated
for president in 1968? Send your
answers, not to George H. W. Bush,
but to johnshiffert@clayton.edu.
Sophomore Ryan Haskell, from Newport,
Wales and Junior Fredrik Lindblom, from
Varmdo, Sweden, both finished tied for
17th in the event. Haskell had rounds of
71 and 76, while Lindblom posted rounds
of 72 and 75.
Sophomore Will Shenstone, of Calgary,
Alberta, tied for 47th with scores of 81
and 73. Junior Clark Nelson, of Glasgow,
Scotland, tied for 61st with rounds of 78
and 80 and senior Chris McManus,
Bearsden Scotland, tied for 64th with
rounds of 78 and 81 playing as an individ-
ual.
The Clayton State women's soccer team
won every category on the stat sheet on
Tuesday, except for the most important
one … goals scored.
Despite outshooting Coker College 23-7
in the match, the Lakers fell 3-1 to the
Cobras dropping its record to 3-2 on the
year.
"It was a tough day at the office," says
head coach Gareth O'Sullivan. "We hit the
frame four times and had numerous
chances. Bottom line, we didn't get it done
and Coker took advantage of their
chances."
The Lakers fell behind early in the match
as Coker's Jaylnn Fortt scored after a
cross from Katie Cooper 14 minutes into
the match.
After neither team scored for the remain-
der of the half, Coker's Kelley Godbout
scored two goals in the second half to lead
the Cobras to the victory. Her first goal
came in the 49th minute off an assist from
Fort, while her second goal came off an
assist from Cooper in the 77th minute.
Clayton State senior forward Natalia
Valentine scored the Lakers lone goal in
the 82nd minute on a give-and-go from
junior midfielder Lea Notthoff. The goal
was Valentine's team-leading fifth of the
year.
