Some learned persons held the view that Greek was divided into
small states which were called city states. Owing to mutual
battles among these small states, Olympic games originated.
Whatever the reasons behind the beginning of Olympic games
was, but it is certain that these Olympic games was organized
first time in the beautiful valley Olympia. Due to this fact, these
games

The ancient Olympic games continued for one thousand year
approximately. But in 394 A.D. the king of Rome stopped the

14. P
An Olympic Anthem, also called the Olympic Hymn, was composed for the 1896 Olympic
Games by Greek composer Spyros Samaras (1863-1917), with words added by his
colleague Kostis Palamas.
P
The Olympic Anthem was first played at the 1896 Olympic Opening Ceremonies,
performed by nine bands and a chorus.
P
It was used again in 1906. Thereafter, a variety of musical offerings provided the background
to
the
Opening
Ceremonies
until
1960
.
In
1954
,
the
International
Olympic
background
to
the
Opening
Ceremonies
until
1960
.
In
1954
,
the
International
Olympic
Committee (IOC) launched a worldwide competition for a new version of an Olympic
Anthem. From the 392 scores presented, the first prize went to Michał Spisak for his
ultra-modern atonal work, with lyrics extracted from Pindar’s odes. It was never terribly
popular and Spisak’s demands for excessive royalties led itnot to be chosen as the
official Olympic Anthem. It was elected to return to the Samaras/Palamas composition as
the official Olympic Anthem.
P
he Olympic Anthem was first used in that regard at the OpeningCeremonies in Rome
two years later, since which time it has become an established part of the Olympic
Ceremonies. The Olympic Charter terms this the Olympic Anthem, although it is often
referred to as the Olympic Hymn.

19. If we look at the objectives of Olympic games, we come to learnthat Baron De Coubertin wanted to develop values
through Olympic games. The following values can be developed through Olympic movement:
1111....Brotherhood Brotherhood Brotherhood Brotherhood::::
P
Olympic movement is instrumental in developing brotherhood when players of different countries play together, come
together, sit together, dine together—they develop unity among themselves. Thus brotherhood develops.
2222.... Impartial Impartial Impartial Impartial game gamegame game::::

P
The
Olympic
games
provide
opportunities
for
impartial
games
.
These
games
are
based
on
justice
.
So,
each
player
and
each team should be judged fairly. Rules and regulations should be applied to each and every team. There should be
no partiality towards a specific team or player. The sports officials should be true to their words and actions. “Live by
code or get out”—such slogans should be raised.
3333.... NoNoNoNo discrimination discrimination discrimination discrimination::::
P
According to the suggestion of Mr. Coubertin, there should not be any discrimination on the basis of caste, colour
and creed. Olympic games promote the spirit of brotherhood and try to abolish discrimination. The players of
different countries, cultures, tradition, and caste—take part. They should not treated unfairly. The players forget their
background or roots and they help promote Olympic values. But exception sare always there. In 1972, Olympic games
in Munich, Israeli players were killed ruthlessly. In 1936,Berlin Olympic Jesse Owens bagged four gold medals but on
the grounds of racial discrimination. Adolf Hitler refusedto honour Jese Owens, some countries have vested interest
in these games. They want to prove that they are a better than the other countries. But it can’t be stated that Olympic
movement has failed to promote values, we should have positive outlook so that values may be promoted through
Olympic movement.

20. 4444....Friendship Friendship Friendship Friendship:::: P
Olympic movement presents such opportunities as instrumental in developing friendship not only among
players but also among countries. Players of different countries come to take part in Olympic games. When
they get together, they become friends. Even when there is tension going on between two countries, they
come close to one another through Olympic games.
5555....Respect Respect Respect Respect::::
P
This value motivates the players to show sportsman spirit. Every player should retrospect and also respect
the opponents, rules of game and environment.

role in development of these values but a dark side of Olympics is also seen. Many countries participate in
Olympics just to show their superiority on other countries.This is also a downfall of these values that many
countries of the world boycotted 1980 Moscow Olympics and 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. The Olympic
movement fails to develop the above said values. There should a positive thinking towards these values so
that these values can be developed.
