As the new year begins, the spotlight is focused on the sportsman who best exemplifies the greatness of the year just past. Onstage with him are others who strove to fulfill the ancient Greek standards of arete and those who are still making news: the pro football champions, the heroes of the bowl games, the Italians and the Australians fighting it out for the Davis Cup. And, summing up all the things that sport stands for, a notable essay by Alexander Eliot on the sculptured athletes of Greece, the men who were revered like gods.
