In spite of EISA’s efforts to reduce its effect, the wind which gusted and swirled around the Toda course creat ed unfair conditions. This cast a cloud over the Olympic regatta, which, nevertheless, managed to convey to the world, via television, an image of the universality of rowing. The friends of rowing Among the members of the council of the Italian rowing federation elected for the period 1965 — 1968 were two vice-presidents who would become famous in other international bodies. One of them, Sergio Orsi, has been president of the International Canoe Federa tion since 1980, and the other, Paolo Cappabianca, was to found and become president of the international Panathlon movement.

Riolo August 24th 1965 — Duisburg 61st ordinary FISA congress Present: the delegates of 28 federations. Called the “Congress of the Statutes”, as many modifica tions were made to these, often by a unanimous vote, but always with a 2/3 majority. The categories of oarsmen were redefined: the junior category was to depend on age, and no longer to be de termined by performance. International junior regattas would be held in the future. The minimum age for seniors would be 19. Elite oarsmen would be those seniors who had won six times at a lower level. The con cept of interference as well as a foul leading to eventual disqualification was officially recognized. This merely confirmed an already accepted disciplinary practice. The Puerto-Rican and South Korean (Republic of Korea) federations were admitted as extraordinary mem bers. On the other hand, on a proposition from council, congress approved the cancelling of both the provisional affiliation of North Korea (the People’s Democratic Republic of Korea) and that of Northern Rhodesia. The proposal, presented by M. Norris, president of the Cana dian federation, that the first North American continen tal championships be held in St. Catherine’s (CAN), won Part 4 137 2x: 1. URS 2.
