In Athletics: Winds, temperatures at 14 degrees and again rain test no chance. At the three international competition of track and field athletes from the Soviet Union from France and Germany, the bad weather the athletes repeated the mood and performance.
The competition in the Stuttgart Neckarstadion was dress rehearsal for the European Championships in Rome. But only a few of the athletes presented themselves in a form, which hope to medal chances left. One of them, the Frenchman Guy Drut, who convincingly defended his reputation as the best Europeans.
In the women's 4 x 400 metres event, a young German season - three unknown teenager and the silver medal winner from Munich, stunned Rita WILDEN as final runner.
In new year world record she won before the runners from the Soviet Union.
Three jumpers made the winning height of 1.85 meters in the high jump. The number of failed attempts decided: Ulrike Meyfarth was second and the German Champion Karin Wagner third Tamara Galka from the Soviet Union first.
Allez France, France, it was called in the most gripping duel in Stuttgart, the 4 x 100 m race of the men - a maybe also ironically intentioned encouragement to a race in which the weights seemed previously distributed. The German season as a favorite, the runner from the Soviet Union as the strongest rivals and the French rather than adding. In the destination you saw it differently: the French won at the same time before the Germans. The final bill but won - as expected - the Soviet Union against Germany and France.

This entertainment: Paris walking congested with cars, cut by roads: other cities also Paris seemed like shipped the car... until the Paris newly discovered her feet.
President Giscard d' Estaing issued the new watchword: walking is not only healthy, brings it even closer to each other. Since then, he took some State visitors to the political walk on the hand. As a civilian situated on the Paris magnificence avenues - a totally new sensation of walking, which was hitherto the parade troops. The citizen's turn is now. Pedestrian zones, where may be chatting, laughing and flirting, make human the environment now also in Paris. You can find each other faster. On the road, spontaneity - is a temptation for actors and musicians, to overcome the barrier that separates them from the audience in the theatre and concert hall, with a crack on the street. The new pedestrian streets residents consider their changing environment with mixed feelings. A housewife: 'I'm for pedestrian zones, but against excessive accumulations of people.' A pastor: ' we have made first bad experience because it could move No more before all sorts of people. Now I'm completely fine.' A businesswoman: 'if the trash, one man here even encounters, is gone, it can't be a good thing.' The family of Saltimbanques don't mind such sayings. Set new awakened desire to conquer now even the city in strolling to the soldiers, to the citizen.

Only original vehicles were allowed to start. Some drove tires still on 50-year-old. A British company will help if the old tires are worn out. It produces high-fidelity copies of every oldie tires. On the closing day, the museum pieces showed that they are also suitable for rain use. The material quality of a 43-year-old DKW demonstrated after a Peugeot: with only two rounds of intact, he remained cheerful on the heels of the competition.
