selves (from May to August 3, 1980). They contained all the planned events which were to take place at the Olympic sites. The OCOG-80 worked out and, in the order established with the IFs and the IOC, coordinated 52 titles of official documentation and reference and official publications in three languages— French, English, and Russian. These publications included: the technical regulations for 21 sports, a brochure on "IOC Medical Controls", "Racing Instructions for the Yachting" and "Instructions on Measuring Yachts". Referee events documenta- 181 tion was drawn up in all sports, and 505 different application forms for taking part in the Games as well as "Instructions on Filling In Entries". A number of other brochures, programmes and posters concerning sports programmes were also published. The public commission of the Organising Committee, in organising the events and sports and technical equipment, actively tackled all the questions arising from preparing for and staging the Games. This comprised representatives of the USSR sports federations and specialists from design organisations.
The Dates of the Games, the Calendar and Events Timetable To ensure that the athletes were well prepared for the Olympic Games the OCOG-80 was busy to adopt relevant decisions and inform all the National Olympic Committees of them as early as possible. First of all the dates of the Games had to be fixed. This called for an analysis of a host of factors. As a result the Organising Committee suggested holding the Games between July 19 and August 3, 1980. These dates were selected on the basis of hydrometeorological data collated for Moscow over the last 100 years. They showed that the second half of July and the beginning of August was the most favourable period to hold the Games in, climatic conditions in Moscow then being fairly constant: the average monthly temperature is +18 or 19°C. The lowest daily temperature— + 12.8°C— 13.4°C (at 4-5 a.m.) and the highest— +23.4°C—24.5°C (at 2-3 p.m.). Relative humidity fluctuates from 40 per cent to 68 per cent. The average precipitation is 2-4 mm, mainly taking the form of brief showers. The average number of cloudy days is 3-4 during the month. It should be noted that, as had been expected, the weather conditions in Moscow during the Games turned out to be favourable and the same can be said for Tallinn and other Olympic cities. When fixing the dates for the Games due attention was paid to the time of holding traditional international competitions in summer Olympic sports. The OCOG-80 put its suggestions with regard to the dates to the IOC four and a half years before the Games were due to start. The 77th IOC session in February 1976 in Innsbruck approved these suggestions, making it possible for the organisers of the Games to plan their preparatory work, to successfully resolve the material and technical provisions for the events, to prepare the cultural programme in the best way, etc. At the same time this allowed IFs to better plan the traditional world championships and tournaments held in various regions. Athletes taking part in the Olympic Games to come were given an opportunity to plan their training so as to achieve the "peak" of their sporting form in all the pre- Olympic seasons. At its 78th session in Montreal held in July 1976 the IOC examined and approved the OCOG-80's suggestions on holding the games of the XXII Olympiad in 199 different events as 182 approved by the 75th session of the IOC. At the request of certain IFs the June 1977 Prague IOC session broadened the sports programme: the 50-km walk was restored, a new weight division of up to 100 kg was introduced in weightlifting, and the weight divisions applied in judo were completely changed, as a result of which their total number increased from six to eight. In yachting the Tempest Class was replaced by the Star. Thus, 203 different events were included in the programme for the Games of the XXII Olympiad. Athletics: women —100 m, 200 m, 400 m, 800 m, 1,500 m; 100 m hurdles, 4x100 m and 4x400 m relays, longjump and high-jump, shot put, discus and javelin throwing, pentathlon; men —100 m, 200 m, 400 m, 800 m, 1,500 m, 5,000 m, 10,000 m, 110 m hurdles, 400 m hurdles, 3,000 m steeplechase, 42 km 195 m (marathon), 4x100 m relay and 4x400 m relay, 20and 50-km walk, high-jump, longjump, triple jump, vaulting, shot put, discus and javelin throwing, pentathlon.
