At 1:44 the commentator talks about the "dominance of the USSR" and talks about Keleti. She is 35 years old and her father is a survivor of Auschwitz.

At 2:37 is the part about Latynina. He explains that she is the winner of the women's competition and had in her career thus far won 18 medals--9 of them gold.

Is this at all helpful? The French is very fast and hard to catch; I would be a lot better if I could read it, but I can't, so if it helps, I'll keep doing it for the other parts.

@veevee305 her father is not a survivor he is dead at auschuitz

At 0:45 they speak about the intense competition between the USSR and Japan, and Ono's "form and control" on the bar.

At 1:29 they mention that Chukarin won the PB event finals and speak more about the USSR and Japan (but I couldn't catch exactly).

0Agnes Keleti, apparently her father died in Auchwitz and she lived in her childhood in Helsinki.

[isa1285]

I think that the thing about Helsinki is that she won medals there.

It's so awesome to see Keleti in action
