the rules and in the spirit of true sportsmanship. The official part of the Opening Ceremony ended with the Anthem of the Soviet Union. The delegations left the field, and the artistic and sports programme began. The first to enter the arena, at 6 p.m. were 150 standard-bearers and 800 athletes in gymnastic outfits. They formed a "Sun" composition in the centre of the field. Columns of youths and girls in national costumes of the 15 republics of the Soviet Union ran towards it from all sides, forming sunrays. Formations of thousands of participants in the Friendship of the Peoples dance suite created a series of brightly-coloured pictures on the field. Troikas—carriages drawn by three horses each, running abreast—raced along the track. About 2,000 youths and girls took part in a gymnastics display. Gymnasts and acrobats demonstrated their skill. A group of young gymnasts in bear cub costumes 297 won an ovation from the spectators. Two thousand athletes from the Trudoviye Reservy Sports Society formed the five Olympic rings on the field, with four-tier live "vases" in the middle of the rings. A feature of the Opening Ceremony was a huge coloured "picture screen" in the eastern stands. Here, by flashing combinations of the 5 coloured flags, 7 changeable shirt fronts, 7 painted panels and 5 caps which each of them had, a team of 4,500 athletes formed a total of 174 mosaic-like pictures that succeeded one another according to the scenario. In the finale all 16,000 participants in the programme came out onto the field. The athletes in the stands created a mosaic picture of the Earth with a star on it symbolising Moscow, host of the Games. The spectators continued to applaud long after the performers left the field.
The Closing Ceremony Preparations for the Closing Ceremony went ahead at the same time as those for the Opening Ceremony. While the Organising Committee took the experience of previous Games into account the scenario included many new and original features. The Closing Ceremony took place on August 3, 1980, in the Central Lenin Stadium strictly in keeping with the Olympic Charter. In the boxes of the western stands were leaders of the Soviet state, Lord Killanin, Honorary President of the IOC, Juan Antonio Samaranch, the 298 newly-elected IOC President, and Ignati Novikov, President of the OCOG- 80, members of the IOC, presidents and general secretaries of IFs and NOCs, Olympic gold medallists, Parliament Members from various countries, mayors of the capitals of many countries and members of the diplomatic corps. More than 100,000 Muscovites and visitors to the capital were in the stands of festively-decorated Lenin Stadium. At 7.30 p.m., as provided for by the scenario, Olympic athletes stepped onto the running track to the accom-
