الألعاب الأولمبية الصيفية العاشرة أقيمت من 30 يوليو حتى 14 أغسطس 1932 ، و أصابت نجاحا رغم الأزمة الإقتصادية الحادة التي أعقبت انهيار البورصة عام 1929 وعاشت الدورة على إيقاع هوليوود القريبة و حضرها نجوم الشاشة من أمثال غاري كوبر و شارلي شابلن و أمام 105 آلاف متفرج على استاد ميموريال كوليزيوم ، تألقت الصبية الأمريكية بايبي ديدريكسون في ألعاب القوى ، وفي هذه الدورة منع العداء الفنلندي بافو نورمي من الإشتراك لثبوت احترافه. وشارك 1408 لاعبا و لاعبة (127 لاعبة) من 37 دولة ((منها الصين لأول مرة)) في الدورة وقد وضعت اللاعبات في الفندق ووضع اللاعبون في القرية الأولمبية و تنافس الجميع على 116 مسابقة في 15 لعبة. و في هذه الدورة اعتمدت التوقيت الإلكتروني لأول مرة و الصورة النهائية (فوتوفينيش) ومنصة التتويج والنشيد الوطني.

The Games were held during the worldwide Great Depression, with some nations not traveling to Los Angeles as a result; 37 countries competed, compared to the 46 at the 1928 Games in Amsterdam,[أ] and even then-U.S. President Herbert Hoover did not attend the Games.[ب] The organizing committee did not report the financial details of the Games, although contemporary newspapers stated that the Games had made a profit of US$1 million قالب:FXConvert/Equivalent[3].[ب]

Host city selection

The selection of the host city for the 1932 Summer Olympics was made at the 23rd IOC Session in Rome, Italy, on April 9, 1923. Remarkably, the selection process consisted of a single bid, from Los Angeles’ Olympic Committee led by Billy May Garland, and as there were no bids from any other city, Los Angeles was selected by default to host the 1932 Games.[4]

Charles Curtis became the first and only U.S. Vice President to inaugurate the Olympic Games. An Olympic Village was built for the first time and became a model for future games, in Baldwin Hills, occupied by male athletes.[5] Female athletes were housed at the Chapman Park Hotel on Wilshire Boulevard. Tenth Street, a major thoroughfare in Los Angeles, was renamed Olympic Boulevard in honor of the Games of the Tenth Olympiad. The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum was known in 1932 as Olympic Stadium.

The victory podium was used for the first time at the summer games (a podium was also used earlier in the year at the 1932 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid).[6][7][ت] An Olympic mascot, Scottish Terrier Smoky, was featured for the first time in history, albeit unofficially.

Athletics and field events

Babe Didrikson won two gold medals in the javelin and the hurdles event. She also competed in a jump-off for a gold in the high jump. Her technique in the jump-off was ruled illegal, leaving Didrikson with second place.

Finland's Paavo Nurmi was suspended from competition by the IAAF for alleged violation of amateur rules. Finns charged that the Swedish officials had used devious tricks in their campaign against Nurmi's amateur status,[8] and ceased all athletic relations with Sweden.[9] A year earlier, controversies on the track and in the press had led Finland to withdraw from the Finland-Sweden athletics international.[10] After Nurmi's suspension, Finland did not agree to return to the event until 1939.[8]

Eddie Tolan won both the 100 m and 200 m sprint events. Poland's Stanisława Walasiewicz won the gold medal in the women's 100 m; she also won the silver medal in the event four years later. After her death in 1980, it was discovered that she was intersex and would have been ineligible to participate under modern rules.

Due to an official's error, the 3,000 m steeplechase went for 3,460 m, or one extra lap.[11]

Several women's events debuted at these games, among them the 80 meters hurdles and javelin throw.[12][13] Babe Didrikson won both events and also competed in the high jump where she was controversially denied gold, leaving her with silver.[14] As women, unlike men, were only allowed to enter a maximum of three events, Didrikson could not compete in the discus throw, long jump, and relay where she would have likely medaled based on her prior results. Had the 200 meters and pentathlon been contested at these games (they debuted in 1964), Didrikson would have won them easily based on her performances prior to the Olympics.[15]

Team sports

In field hockey, only three nations took part. The host nation lost both matches, 1–24 to India and 2–9 to Japan, but still won a bronze medal.

Gymnastics

Romeo Neri won three gold medals in gymnastics. Although women's team gymnastics debuted in the previous Olympics, the event was not held in these games; however, there were women gymnasts who traveled to Los Angeles and participated in exhibition events at the 1932 games.[16]

Swimming

Helene Madison won three gold medals in swimming, while the Japanese upset the men's events and took all but one title. Kusuo Kitamura won the gold medal in the men's 1500 meter freestyle swimming race. He was and continues to be the youngest ever male swimmer to win a gold medal at the Olympic Games.

Equestrian

Takeichi Nishi (Baron Nishi) was the gold medalist with his horse Uranus in the equestrian show jumping individual event. Nishi's gold medal is Japan's only gold medal in the equestrian event to this day. Nishi died in 1945 as an officer stationed in the defense of the island of Iwo Jima, and as such is an important character in Clint Eastwood's film, Letters from Iwo Jima.

Cycling

Dunc Gray won Australia's first cycling gold medal; he set a world record of 1m 13s in the 1000 time trial. The Dunc Gray Velodrome, built for the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, was named after him.

Medals awarded

117 events in 20 disciplines, comprising 14 sports, were part of the Olympic program in 1932. In one of two Equestrian jumping events (team competitions) no medals were awarded. The number of events in each discipline is noted in parentheses.

Demonstration sports

Art

The Art competitions at the 1932 Summer Olympics awarded medals for works inspired by sport-related themes in five categories: architecture, literature, music, painting, and sculpture.

Venues

The Rose Bowl hosted the track cycling events for the 1932 Summer Olympics

Fifteen sports venues were used for the 1932 Summer Olympics. In order to control costs in the wake of the Great Depression, existing venues were used. They included two golf courses, two city parks, three public highways, and a city road. The Swimming Stadium was the only new venue constructed for these games. The Rose Bowl, constructed in 1921, was made into a temporary velodrome for track cycling events under the auspices of the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI).[17][18] The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, constructed in 1923, was used as the Olympic Stadium.[19][20] The Olympic Auditorium was constructed in 1924 in preparation for Los Angeles being awarded the Games; it was modified to meet the specifications of the boxing, weightlifting, and wrestling federations.[21] Long Beach Marine Stadium was created in 1925 when Alamitos Bay was dredged, then further dredged seven years later in time for the 1932 Games.[22] Elysian Park, the oldest city park in Los Angeles, was founded in 1886, and has been part of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) training academy since 1925.[23][24] The Riviera Country Club opened in 1926 as the Los Angeles Athletic Club Golf Course and was renamed Riviera by the time of the 1932 Games.[25] The Swimming Stadium, constructed adjacent to the Coliseum in 1932, was intended to be a temporary structure.[26] Riverside Drive, Los Angeles Avenue, Vineyard Avenue, and the Pacific Coast Highway were common driving routes in California at the time of the 1932 Games.[27][28]

The Coliseum was the first (& temporary) Los Angeles home for the National League (NL) Dodgers baseball team when it moved from Brooklyn, New York before the 1958 season.[29] The following year, it hosted the 2nd 1959 MLB All-Star Game and games 3, 4 & 5 of the 1959 World Series.[30][31] When Dodger Stadium was completed in 1962, the Dodgers moved there where they have been since.[32] The National Football League (NFL) Los Angeles Rams used the Coliseum as its host stadium from 1946 to 1979 when it moved to Anaheim, located southeast of Los Angeles.[33][34] It also hosted what became known as Super Bowl I in 1967.[35] Even the American Football League's Chargers used the Coliseum as a venue in 1960 until their move to San Diego the following year.[36] The Coliseum continues to host USC Trojans football games to this day, and also hosted UCLA Bruins football for a number of years. The Rams returned to the Coliseum for a span of four years from 2016 to 2019 while SoFi Stadium was being built.

The track constructed in the Rose Bowl was given to the Tournament of Roses Association upon completion of the 1932 Games.[17] The Bowl was expanded between 1932 and the 1984 Summer Olympics three times, increasing its capacity from 83,000 in 1931 to 104,594 in 1972.[37] It hosted Super Bowl XI in 1977, where the Oakland Raiders defeated the Minnesota Vikings 32–14.[37] It is the current home of UCLA Bruins football and the Rose Bowl Game, and was the home of the Major League Soccer (MLS) Los Angeles Galaxy from 1996 to 2003.

Elysian Park's shooting range was left intact for the LAPD to use.[17] Sunset Fields Golf Club was renamed Brentwood Country Club in 1941 and is still in use as of 2010.[38] All of the road courses were returned to public usage after the Olympics.[27][28] The Olympic Auditorium continued to be of use for boxing and roller derby events[39] until June 2005 when it was bought to be used as a megachurch. Los Angeles Harbor continues to be a major sea port in the Western United States, employing 919,000 people and generating US$39.1 billion in annual wages and tax revenues as of 2007.[40] The Riveria Country Club continues to host golf events, hosting the 1948 U.S. Open and the PGA Championship in 1983 and 1995.[41][42][43] The Swim Stadium was renovated in 2003 and continues to be in use as of 2010.[44]

For the 1984 Summer Olympics, the Coliseum and the Rose Bowl were used as venues.[45]
