May 9, 1984 World Roundup Hail USSR Olympic Decision Anti-Sovie- ts By LEE RODERICK Herald Washington Bureau - WASHINGTON The latest in national, and international news from United Press International Not everyone is appalled that the Soviet Union has pulled out of the Los Angeles Olympics. "We've won!" said David congressional liaison officer for Ban the Soviets Coalition, a Fin-re- r, not coming to the 23rd Olympiad. "Faced with the threat of the largest private initiative rescue operation in history, the Soviets decided to withdraw rather than be embarrassed by more than 200 defectors from the Eastern bloc countries," said Finzer.

Sen. Charles Percy, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, referring to the stalled U.S. Soviet arms talks, said the Soviets "seem to have a pattern now of picking up their marbles and going home if things aren't going exactly he way they multi-lingu- from New York to Los Angeles. Russia was severely humiliated when the U.S. pulled out of the 1980 Moscow Olympics after the l'S5R invaded Afghanistan in 1979. Most observers see Tuesday's announcement as revenge for the 1980 action. "You cannot have an attempt to damage the games as you had in 1980 and assume all of that is forgotten," said Peter Ueberroth, chairman of the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee. "It appears that we're paying the price for 1980." Percy added, "They've done it here on the provocation that they can t be sure of adequate security, but what they're really talking about is they may not want to face the demonstrations." al The Soviet announcement was calculated to attract maximum world attention and inflict maximum embarrassment on the United States. It came Tuesday almost to the hour when the traditional Olympic torch was starting a ceremoniously cross-countr- y journey by a relay of runners group of organizations that has trumpeted its plans to help athletes from communist nations defect. The group's activities were cited by Moscow officials Tuesday as one reason for billboards with messages aging defectors in four Eastern European languages," explained Finzer.
