Two items I found in Switzerland during the 'Large Ass' Herzog tour of the Alps.
TLS written by Jackson Scholz in 1982. He is one of the athletes featured in the movie 'Chariots of Fire'. He won the silver medal in the 100m at the 1924 Olympics in Paris. He won gold in the 200m. He also won a gold in the 4x100m at the 1920 games in Antwerp. Makes mention of the movie in the last paragraph. Clipped signature of Jack Lovelock. He won a gold medal in the 1500m at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, beating American Glenn Cunningham. A New Zealander, he practiced medicine in New York City. It is speculated that he suffered a dizzy spell when he fell on the subway tracks and was killed by a train in Brooklyn in 1949.
