In Response To: Press out rule (wolf hasenmaier)

Through 1972, a press-out WAS legal . . . The IOC committee meeting that resulted in dropping the Press from competition also changed the Clean & Jerk into a "Quick lift," (no press-out)

Mr Bob Crist, who was in that committe, voted against the new "press-out" rule, because then there would be no "strength" lift left after the Press was discontinued . . . .
