All language subtitles for Walt Disney Home Video Cartoon Classics Volume 4 Sport Goofy Las_1

Walt Disney Home Video presents Cartoon
Classic.

A delightful series of cartoon programs
featuring your favorite Disney

characters.

2 ,716 years ago, within the shadow of
beautiful Mount Olympus in the

land of ancient Greece, was born an
institution known as the Olympic Games.

Emblematic of these glorious athletic
festivals is the torchbearer, who down

through the ages has carried aloft the
precious flame to the far corners of the

earth. Rome, Egypt, India.

China, through forests and trackless
wastes, over mountains and sea,

down to the present day.

The ritual of the Olympiads demands that
this heroic flame shall not become

extinguished, but shall be kept burning
at all costs, serving as a beacon whose

unfailing light... shall guide all
athletes in fair play and clean

sportsmanship, to give them courage and
forever remind them of the brave and the

strong whose nerves of steel and cool
heads shall keep alive and preserve at

sacrifice this precious spark for
posterity, that all mankind shall

by the light that never fails.

The first... olympic event was foot
racing therefore let us briefly analyze

fundamental strides first the sprinter
not the powerful piston

-like action of the legs as compared to
the long distance or space devouring

stride of the miler and then that of the
marathon runner whose

effortless untiring stride carries him
for amazing distance

And last but not least, the walk.

Perhaps one of the most graceful of all.

Exacting the perfect coordination of all
the muscles of the body.

Note the similarity of the walk to a
dance.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

Hey, wait a shake. We're off the track.
Uh, track.

Oh, yes, track.

One of the most spectacular of all track
events is the hurdles.

Ready, set, go.

Nothing can compare to the ease and
grace of the hurdles for sheer beauty of

motion.

The pole vault.

Beginning with a short run, the pole is
planted in the pit.

A swing up.

Hold it. We are now at the apex of the
vertical lift.

Notice the position of the legs just
coming into the jackknife.

Observe the swing of the hips and the
knee flexation as the legs progress into

their arc, preparatory to crossing the
bar.

Crossing the... You know, that reminds
me of a poem by Tennyson, Crossing the

Bar.

Sunset... and evening star and one clear
call for me and may there be

no moaning of the bar when I put out to
sea.

Don't you think that's a lovely thought?

I do.

All right, jump.

Oh, yes.

From this position, the body arches
itself in a graceful glide.

clearing the crossbar and settling it
gently into the sawdust below.

Hammer throwing.

More than any other event calls for
terrific muscular development, plus

weight, and mental alertness. The hammer
must be swung in a circle until

terrific speed is attained.

And last, but far from least, the
decathlon. A group of ten events

test the athlete's stamina and power.

Thank you.

The Smiles.

Attention, men.

Do you come dragging home from work
completely tagged out?

Nervous, unstrung, weak, run down, worn
out, physically and mentally

fatigued?

Don't... Be a spineless, weak, need -no
-good nincompoop. Be a man!

Here's your opportunity.

The open doorway to success.

Fame, money, fortune.

You can do it.

Don't wait. Fill in the coupon.

Fill in the coupon. Hurry, hurry, hurry,
hurry, hurry.

Welcome to the super dynamic muscle
tissue figure and bodybuilding company's

happy family.

For our number one exercise, suppose we
tried the barbells.

Feet in position.

One. Inhale.

Two. Bend down.

Three. Flex the knees.

Four. Grip firmly with both hands.

And five.

Lift.

One,

two, three. One, two, three.

Get him out of here!

Now, that wasn't so bad, was it?

No, of course not.

Well, so much for exercise number one.

Now, just let us compare ourselves to
the chart.

We're beginning to sit, aren't we?

Aha. But enough rest period.

Let us continue. Next, we take up the
chin -up or horizontal bar.

Place yourself directly under and in the
middle of the bar.

And now we chin.

One, two, three, four.

One, two.

One, two.

Up, down, down. Up we go with the one.

Two. One.

Two. Down. Up. And we're through.

Ta -da.

Notice the quick muscular development.

That wasn't so hard, was it?

Oh. But come, let's not dilly -dally. We
next try our special cable or chest and

shoulder expanders.

This is great for developing our
latissimus dorsi muscles.

One and two.

that well spent time how different we
feel not tired but

just good old physically fatigue

Baseball, the great American game. The
national pastime of millions, both young

and old.

The game is played with a spear known as
a baseball.

The cork and rubber core is carefully
wrapped with yarn and covered with tough

horse hide.

The bat is made of carefully selected
wood and perfectly balanced.

The glove or mitt is well padded, except
where the ball is caught.

Baseball is usually played in a ballpark
consisting of a grandstand, bleachers,

Fence and a playing field or diamond.

So named because of its diamond -like
shape.

The game is quite simple as there are
only nine players to watch at one time.

When the ball is hit, they change
position quickly, thus.

Here's the pitch.

It's a hit to right field.

The runner starts for first base. The
right fielder goes to the ball. The

pitcher covers first. Second baseman
pulls off base. Shortstop covers the

Center backs up right field. The left
fielder goes to center and vice versa.

runner tries to stretch. The hit for two
bases.

Here's the throw from field. The runner
is out or safer either or neither or

both. Simple, isn't it?

The player is an all -around athlete.

The uniform is loose -fitting to allow
freedom of movement.

The socks are what the team is named
after.

The shoes are sturdy, lightweight, and
comfortable.

Spikes are firmly fastened to the soles
of the shoes to prevent slipping.

Gum also plays an important part in
American baseball.

The pitcher, or hurler, is the most
important man on the team.

To the layman, the colorful actions of
the pitcher may appear a trifle

However, such is not the case.

The wind -up, for instance, is very
necessary, for pitching demands limber

brains and well -coordinated muscles,
not only in the throwing arm, but of the

entire body, in order to achieve that
bullet -like delivery of the ball.

On the opposing team, we have the
batter, who carefully selects his

stick or bat.

The play starts when the batter hits the
ball.

Strangely enough, however, the pitcher
tries to keep the batter from hitting

ball. To accomplish this, the pitcher
holds the ball in such a manner as to

cause it to curve when thrown.

The inside curve, the outside curve, and
the drop.

A great ball can also be deceptive. For
example, the thinner.

To further confuse the batter, the
pitcher may alter his strategy by a

pace or slow ball.

The spitball is also used to further
dampen the batter's spirits.

The speedball is referred to as the
fireball, smokeball, etc.

And now we can fully appreciate that
thrill of drills, the World Series.

It's the deciding game.

Our team just about has the series in
the bag. The score is three to nothing.

It's the last half of the ninth inning,
folks.

Our pitcher is the hero of the day. He's
pitched a no -hit, no -run game.

There are two out, and the count is
three and two on the batter.

Confidently, he bows to the plaudits of
the crowd.

There's the wind -up and the pitch.

It's a hot grounder down the third
baseline.

The runner's away to the speeder express
train.

And he's safe on first.

Our pitcher is a bit perturbed.

The runner's taking a long lead off
first.

The pitcher sees it.

There's a fast peg to first, and the
runner is trapped.

He's in the old pickle, folks. If he
gets tagged with the pill, the ball game

over.

Uh -oh! He dropped the ball!

Slide! Slide!

He's safe on second.

The pitcher is worried. He takes a quick
look toward second.

There's the pitch and... Oh, he dusted
him off with the old bean ball, folks.

And the batter gets a free trip to
first.

Here's the situation, folks.

We have a man on first and a man on
second. It's anybody's ball game now.

The crowd is going wild.

And the pitcher seems to have lost some
of his confidence.

He gets the signal, and here's the
pitch.

The batter has decided to bunt.

It's a short, pop fly.

The catcher goes after it. The pitcher
is going to come in in perfect unison.

Looks like an easy out.

Look out!

Hey, get that ball. Take it first. Take
it first. Throw it. Throw it.

There goes the ball to first. It's going
to be close.

He's safe.

has turned out to be.

The bases are loaded.

The pitcher's in an awful spot and the
crowd is going crazy.

The pitcher's tense.

The batter's tense.

The crowd is tense.

It's up to the pitcher.

A half million dollars and the World
Series hinge on this pitch.

It's up to the umpire, that impartial
pillar of judicial dignity whose word is

law.

That

great

American privilege is thoroughly enjoyed
by players and spectators alike.

That's why the national sport will
always be that good old American game,

baseball.

How to play golf.

Contrary to popular belief, golf is not
a waste of time.

The transforming of city dumps, vacant
lots, and civic eyesores into beautiful

greens and fairways more than justifies
the existence of the game.

Out in the green open fields where a man
can get away from it all.

Happily, the golfer chooses his club.

The modern golfer comes standard
equipped with a set of scientifically

and balanced clubs.

A tee is used to support the ball.

The interlocking grip is extremely
scientific.

The club is held loosely betwixt the
thumb and forefinger of the right hand.

Place the left hand, palm open, facing
away, then slide the right hand below

left. Now flex the thumb and close the
palm while moving the index finger over

the lower thumb.

Once this grip is mastered, the golfer
is in a position to hit the ball which

the object of the game.

The interlocking grip gives the golfer a
virtually unbreakable hold on the club.

This is a divot caused by an incorrect
swing.

Now, let us analyze the correct swing by
reducing the figure to its simplest

form.

This diagrammatical figure clearly shows
the symmetrical design created by the

path of action. Note how the golfer
completes the stroke with an easy,

follow -through.

This isn't as easy as it looks.

Perfect form requires delicate
coordination of the hands, feet, arms,

elbows, nose, and mind.

And, oh yes, always remember, keep your
eye on the ball.

is the simplest of all strokes.

The ball is simply hit from here to
here.

However, better golfers leave nothing to
chance.

They consider all the elements.

Wind velocity, humidity, rotation of the
earth, time of day, temperature, drift

indication, lay of the land, trajectory
angle, longitude, latitude,

and a bit of mental calculation.

This routine completed, the putt can now
be made with confidence.

Missing a putt is very aggravating.

The approach shot, or chip to the pin.

A ball incorrectly hit is known as a
hook, slice, flub, dub, or something

causes the ball to curve in flight and
usually results with the ball landing in

the rough.

The golden rule of golf is to play the
ball where it lies.

The golfer is sometimes tempted to
remove his ball to a slightly better

position. This is strictly forbidden.

Always play the ball where it lies.

Even in a sand trap, the golfer must
obey that ironclad rule to play the ball

where it lies.

This may prove a bit trying at times.

But that is why golf is known as the
character -building game.

To lose one's temper on the golf links
denotes a weakness of willpower.

Golf develops a man's best qualities.

He learns restraint, poise, dignity, and
self -reliance.

play the ball where it lies.

Playing

the

ball where it lies becomes an obsession.

We come at last to the 19th hole, where
we join our friends in the proverbial

bull session that ends a perfect day.

Well, good afternoon, ladies and
gentlemen.

This is your sportscaster bringing
today's match to you to the courtesy of

BBB and BB Ball Company, which we will
see in use today on this magnificently

kept court whose grassy lawn lies
outspread before my very eyes.

Ah, yes.

We anticipate by the gathering who will
not pass up the opportunity to witness

this thrilling contest with... Oh, well.

Everyone to his own taste.

Now I see our crowd is beginning to
gather.

Oh, ouch!

Ah, yes. They are really packing them
in.

And now, now, yes, now I see the
contestants coming out onto the field.

Ah, such confidence and poise these boys
display.

Magnificent specimens have finally
trained after... Hmm?

Ben is one to spin and will serve first.

This fellow is known to have one of the
most dynamic, devastating serves in

tennis.

And there's the service.

It's a high palabra over the net. And an
easy return.

And a hard drive.

And a soft smash.

And a terrific recovery to the
backcourt.

And an easy lob.

And a tremendous backhand.

And a lob. And a smash.

And a lob.

These boys play two entirely different
types of tennis.

Little Joe choosing the soft placement,
headier, steadier, or defensive game.

And Big Ben preferring the hard,
driving, offensive, smashing, smashing,

crashing game.

Well, there's the first game to Little
Joe.

Now, Little Joe serves.

Aha! Big Ben broke through Little Joe's
service.

Fast and furious, the pace increases.

Five -thirty, thirty -thirty, forty
-thirty, forty -forty. Hammer and tongs

both boys are brushing the net.

Hey, uh, what's the score?

Well, that evens it off. Now, this set
should really be a humdinger.

Joe serves. Ben returns.

Joe returns.

Ben returns.

Joe returns.

Ben returns. 45.

A deep center. A far corner. Smash.

A backhand. Volley. Game.

Love. Love. Drive. Deuce. 5, 10, 15, 20,
30.

The score is great. The rhythm is
better.

Forty -five, forty -thirty, up and down.
Deuce, Deuce, Big Joe, and Little Ben

are both rushing at it. This is
thrilling.

That's firm.

That's dance. That's poetry in motion.

Oh!

Robert Tucker is really on. Both players
batting with reckless abandon.

Hedra and Thither throwing caution to
the winds. And now look, Little Joe is

changing to a two -handed Australian
grip. He winds up and he... Gad, what a

smash! Supposedly viewed as... In slow
motion.

Let's get back to the game. It looks
from here like Big Ben is forging into

lead. No, it's Little Joe. No, Big Ben.
No, Little Joe. No, it's Little Ben. No,

it's Big Joe.

40, 30, 35, 40, 20, 44, 40, 50, 54, 50,
or 5, 2, 30, 2, 30, no, 2, backward,

here we go. It's 40, 30, 35, 40, 20.

Point, game, match, set, tournament.

And the champ.

Hmm?

Say, who won?

Just as I thought. What did I tell you?
I knew he could do it.

Condition always tells.

And now to the champion, the spoils.

A just and true reward for the victor.

And the loser? Well,

ethics and good sportsmanship demand
that he shrug off his feelings of utter

disappointment and smile in spite of
himself.

Yes, the champion's a real sport.

Good sports to the better end.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, here we are
out at the Elite Deluxe Sports Palace

about to witness one of the biggest ice
hockey games of the season, bringing

together two of the top -ranking teams
in the league. In no other game is the

feeling of competition so keen,
affecting both players and spectators

turning casual friends into bitter
enemies.

Tonight's game looks like a sellout. A
capacity crowd of thousands of rabid,

sports -loving hockey fans has turned
out to cheer for their favorite team.

sir, the stands are filling up. They're
really packing them in.

Well, it seems there have been a few
last -minute changes in the starting

lineup. Get your pencils ready. Now,
instead of Hannah at left wing,

will start. Put DeGrawdy in face of
Williams at center, then Berg over

Antliquist. And at left defense,
McCormick replaces Dunham. At goal, the

takes the place of Nichols. And, oh,
yes, the teams will be the Loosleys

the Anteaters instead of the Moose and
Pelicans.

All right, the teams are skating out
onto the ice. Listen to that ovation.

The stars of their team, Icebox Bertino
and Fearless Ferguson.

A heated rivalry has developed between
these two boys.

Both are tied for the top league scoring
honors, and tonight's game will be the

payoff. As these boys go, so go their
club.

The referee for tonight will be that
popular arbiter, Clean Game Kinney.

A favorite of the fans.

The entire responsibility of the game
rests squarely on the shoulders of the

referee. This keen -eyed individual must
follow the course of play so closely

that sometimes it seems he must have
eyes in the back of his head.

Uh -oh! A penalty!

There go the guilty players into the
penalty box.

With these stars out, the complexion of
the entire game may be changed.

A hush of expectancy settles over the
crowd as the teams line up for the face

-off. The referee drops the puck, and
the game is on.

There's a puck over the blue line,
passed out to the right wing, checked by

opposing left wing, who passes the puck
back to the right defense, cutting in

fast, picking the puck off the board,
now back to the left wing, and pivots

around the center.

There's a scramble for possession.

Boots has got it. He's down the ice,
tries for a shot at the net, but the

puts up a stout defense, knocking it
away for a beautiful save.

There's a shot, and he scores!

No, no, no! Look at that stop!

Nothing ever gets past that goalie.

There's a shot, and...

Here come Bertino and Ferguson out of
the penalty box.

And there go Bertino and Ferguson back
into the penalty box.

The loose leads take the play away.

There's a long pass break wide and a
scramble for the puck. A little rough

out there. Both sides are trying to
score. And there's the buzzer running

first period.

In order to give the cash customers a
chance to sit in their seats, there are

-minute rests between periods.

Well, there's the buzzer starting the
second stanza.

Thanks for the ice.

Bucket faced off. There's a pass out to
the side. The loose lead to come up with

a play. Here comes McCormick cutting
down the side. That boy's pure burning

the ice.

Spinning like a top. He crosses the blue
line. The defense closes in. Wow!

They really laid it into him.

Hooray for Raleigh!

Here come Bertino and Ferguson out of
the penalty box.

And there go Portino and Ferguson back
into the penalty box.

There's a pass out to Bond. And here he
comes swinging wide with a blinding

burst of speed.

Next up is Bond. Slides his way through.

Upsets him fast. Picks up the puck.
Takes the shot at the net. And the

kicks it away.

There's another shot. And another. And
another. The goalie has the situation

well in hand.

No, no.

He nuts the own net for a score. A
score. A score. A score. A score.

And he responds. Loose leaves nothing.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, that score
might be enough to put the game on ice.

They line up for the face -off.

There's a scramble.

Here come Bertino and Ferguson out of
the

penalty box.

And there go Bertino and Ferguson back
into the penalty box.

Coming up in the blue line is... He's
right down the three -point and off the

count.

The referee's in the way.

There's another nice save at the net. He
clears the puck to the front, but it's

too hot to handle. Now both teams are
fighting it out on the ice. This is

anybody's game. Riley shoots.

McCormick shoots.

Berg shoots.

Puzzley shoots. Weaver shoots. DeGravity
shoots. Stump shoots. Nolly shoots.

Bushman shoots.

Everybody shoots.

There's a score. And another. And
another. And another. The goalies are

their ground, but they've got their
hands full.

Thank you.

My ice hockey is called a spectator
sport.
