KAS T.S.R.S. MĄSTĖ IR VEIKĖ TARPTAUTINIU LYGIU?

ASMENYBĖS VAIDMUO KULTŪRIZME IR GYVENIME.

Žmogaus asmenybę apsprendžia daug faktorių. Vienas jų – iš kokių pozicijų ir kokiu masteliu žmogus vertina įvykius. Be abejo, kalbėsime apie kultūristus. Sportininkas, klubo treneris, organizatorius mato ir vertina skirtingai. Sporto istorikai varto tuos pačius dokumentus, naudojasi tais pačiais šaltiniais, tačiau viską vertina ir mato skirtingai. Toliau galime gilintis, ar tai buvo vietinio, ar tarptautinio lygio atstovas. Tarptautinio lygmens specialistas turi galėti pakilti virš laikmečio ir pažvelgti į įvykius iš paukščio skrydžio, kitaip jam bus neįmanoma susigaudyti įvykiuose.

Kultūrizmo kūrimosi pradžioje ir sporto draudimo metais T.S.R.S. plačiai mąstančių buvo vienetai. O ir organizatorių buvo nedaug. Tarptautiniuose renginiuose Baltijos šalyse dalyvavę kultūristai mastė siaurai. R.T.F.S.R. atstovas JEVGENIJUS KOLTUNAS (Евгений Колтун) iš Tiumenės iki šiol aukščiau sporto klubo vadovo lygmens nepakilo, lygiai, kaip ir Kaliningrado klubo treneris JURIJUS SMOLIAKOVAS (Юрий Смоляков), lygiai, kaip ir T.S.R.S. čempionas iš Severodvinsko ALEKSANDRAS LEMECHOVAS (Александр Лемехов), kaip ir Leningrado kultūristas VLADIMIRAS DUBININAS (Владимир Дубинин). Latvijos TSR tokiu buvo FELIKSAS SAJKOVSKIS (Феликс Сайковский), o Lietuvos TSR tokiais buvo visi to meto aktyvūs kultūristai. Be paminėtųjų, kultūrizmo draudimo metais daugiau T.S.R.S. aktyvių kultūristų nebuvo. Išimtimi galime įvardinti T.S.R.S. kultūrizmo federacijos generalinį sekretorių ROMANĄ KALINAUSKĄ (Романас Калинаускас), kuris egoistiškai ambicingai stengėsi visus ir viską valdyti, tačiau tai vyko per nuolatines intrigas, apgaulę bei savo bendražygiu išnaudojimą ir skundimą politinei valdžiai. Nemokėdamas nė vienos užsienio kalbos, ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS visados buvo atskirtas nuo išorinio pasaulio, nesusigaudė tarptautiniuose mūsų sporto procesuose. Kita išskirtine išimtimi buvo Estijos TSR atstovas INARAS MARDO (Иннар Мардо, 1946 – 2002 m.). Tačiau jis savo veikla apsiribojo Estijos TSR ir net nepretendavo įtakoti T.S.R.S. kultūrizmo. Beveik reguliariai organizuojami tarptautiniai „Georgo Tenno memorialo“ („Georg Tenno Memorial“, «Мемориал Георга Тенно», 1971 – 1989 m., Tallinn, Estonian SSR) renginiai savaime iškėlė INARĄ MARDO virš kitų T.S.R.S. organizatorių, nes daugiau tokių neatsirado. Trečiu tarptautinio lygio organizatoriumi buvo Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS (DSc. Edmundas Daubaras). Jis kultūrizmo draudimo ir persekiojimo 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977 metais Klaipėdoje organizavo nelegalias komunistinės valdžios atžvilgiu „Gintarinio prizo“ („Amber Prix International“, «Янтарный приз», 1968 – 2023 m.) varžybas. Keletą metų, intensyviai susirašinėjęs su T.S.R.S. sporto ministerija (U.S.S.R. Goskomsport, Госкомспорт С.С.С.Р.), Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS sulaukė T.S.R.S. sporto ministro neigiamo atsakymo į savo laiškus, ginančius kultūrizmo sportą. Tuomet Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS, vienintelis iš visos T.S.R.S., išdrįso sukurti ir parašyti kultūrizmo gynimo peticiją ir, rizikuodamas savo ir savo šeimos ateitimi, minėtą peticiją asmeniškai nuvežti į T.S.R.S. sostinę Maskvą. Maskvoje Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS peticiją įteikė aukščiausiems T.S.R.S. politinės valdžios organams - T.S.R.S. Komunistų partijos centro Komitetui (Центральный Комитет Коммунистической партии С.С.С.Р.), T.S.R.S. Aukščiausiajai Tarybai (Верховный Совет С.С.С.Р.), T.S.R.S. Ministrų Tarybai (Совет Министров С.С.С.Р.), centriniams politiniams dienraščiams „Pravda“ („Правда») ir „Izvestija“ («Известия»). Dokumentai buvo palikti ir registruoti minėtų organizacijų priimamuosiuose, kol po kurio laiko politinės T.S.R.S. jėgos leido Dr. EDMUNDUI DAUBARUI Klaipėdoje organizuoti „Gintarinio prizo“ turnyrą. 

Lyderiai stabilumo nemėgsta. Bet kurios srities lyderis pasižymi drąsa ir atsakomybe. Jie visada siekia rezultato ir nesvarsto, kad nepavyks. Rezultato siekimas – kiekvieno lyderio varomoji jėga. Tuo tarpu dauguma tenkinasi tyliu buvimu ir ramybe. Tai kas gi buvo tikrais T.S.R.S. kultūrizmo lyderiais? Panašiai vienodu keliu su Dr. EDMUNDU DAUBARU ėjo jo ilgamečiai užsienio bičiuliai ir bendražygiai - I.F.B.B. federacijos prezidentas kanadietis BENAS VEIDERIS (International Federation of Body Builders, President Ben Weider), N.A.B.B.A. asociacijos prezidentas anglas OSKARAS HAIDENSTAMAS (National Amateur Body Building Association, President Oscar Heidenstam, W.A.B.B.A. asociacijos prezidentas prancūzas SERŽAS NUBRETAS (World Aamteur Body Building Association, President Serge Nubret) bei tarptautinės F.I.H.C. federacijos (F.I.H.C., Federation Internationale Halterophile et Culturiste) generalinis sekretorius OSKARAS STEITAS (General Secretary F.I.H.C. Oscar State).

Užsienio kalbų nemokėjimas ribojo INNARO MARDO galimybes, tačiau Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS su juo šiuo klausimu visada rasdavo bendrą kalbą, jam padėjo. ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS, kuris nemokėjo nė vienos užsienio kalbos,  daugiau tarp kultūristų kėlė sumaištį ir orientavosi vienareikšmiai tik į Maskvoje įsikūrusią T.S.R.S. sporto ministeriją (Министерство спорта С.С.С.Р., Госкомспорт С.С.С.Р.), o konkrečiau, į T.S.R.S. sunkiosios atletikos federaciją („Федерация тяжёлой атлетики С.С.С.Р.“). Tačiau ko pozityvaus kultūrizmo draudimo laikotarpiu buvo galima tikėtis iš T.S.R.S. sunkiosios atletikos federacijos? Nieko.

Tuo tarpu, Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS, Vilniaus valstybiniame universitete dar besimokydamas anglų ir vokiečių filologijos, ne kartą bandė bendrai veiklai apjungti Vilniaus miesto sporto klubus. Niekas kitas Vilniuje to nedarė ir net nebandė.

Lengva postringauti, kai ledai pralaužti, kliūtys pašalintos ir kultūrizmo traukinys rieda iš inercijos. O tuomet išdrįsusių kovoti dėl kultūrizmo ateities net su aukščiausia politine T.S.R.S. valdžia neatsirado nė vieno. Tik vienas Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. Šiandien, sulaukę senatvės, neretas „tų dienų veteranas“ socialiniuose tinkluose prašosi „į draugus“ pas Dr. EDMUNDĄ DAUBARĄ. Gražu, bei kur jie buvo sportui lemtingais metais, kai reikėjo dirbti, kovoti ir rizikuoti?

Per penkis dešimtmečius trunkančią Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO organizacinę veiklą buvo daug „padėjėjų“, „pavaduotuoju“. Neretas ne tik galvojo, bet ir pabandė užimti Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO vietą, bandė, kaip jie patys sako, „daryti, kaip daro Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS“. Nė vienam nieko doro nesigavo.

Audringa Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO veikla daugeliui nepatiko, ypač, kai šiam sekėsi pasiekti rezultatų. Nenorėdamas veltis į tarpusavio rietenas, jau turėdamas Vilniaus valstybiniame universitete įgytą germanų filologijos specialybę, Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS 1979 metais dar kartą įstojo į Vilniaus valstybinį universitetą, šį kartą studijuoti teisės. Ir vėl jam pavyko. Lygiai tokia pati gyvenimiška paralelė nutiko ir su INARU MARDO, kuris po 1979 metais lietuvių sukurstytų intrigų bei perversmo Estijos nacionalinėje kultūrizmo federacijoje, palūžo ir nebeatsikėlė. Buvo atskiri baldymai sugrįžti, tačiau jų negalima pavadinti sėkmingais. Pavyduoliai sužlugdė INARĄ MARDO, o patys, užėmę jo vietą, nieko reikšmingesnio iki šiol nepasiekė. Ši informacija paremta INARO MARDO laiškais Dr. EDMUNDUI DAUBARUI.

Klaipėda visada buvo ir dabar yra „atskira respublika“. Tiek Lietuvoje, tiek T.S.R.S., tiek ir dabar jau tarptautiniame lygyje. Taip buvo ir juridiškai, ir pagal visuomeninį statusą, ir pagal vertinimą bei bendradarbiavimą su įvairių šalių lyderiais, tarptautinių organizacijų vadovais.

Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO lyderystė išliko visam jo gyvenimui ir atvedė į vadovavimą tarptautinei W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. organizacijai (World Fitnes Federation, World Body Building Federation), kuri šiandien vienija nacionalines kultūrizmo organizacijas iš šimto keturiasdešimties šalių, atstovaujančių visus kontinentus. Dar Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS dalyvauja kelių tarptautinių organizacijų veikloje, kurios, tame tarpe, dirba Jungtinėse Tautose (United Nations) bei U.N.E.S.C.O. (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization). Gal žinote, kuris iš kultūristų savo pasiekimais buvo tokioje pat situacijoje? Kelias buvo ilgas ir pasisekė ne iškart, teko semtis patyrimo, mokytis iš kitų.

Kaip žinia, Vatikanas yra ne tik pasaulio katalikų centras, bet ir valstybė. 2011 metais Vatikane vyko oficialus Pasaulinės W.F.F. – W.B.B.F.  federacijos vadovo DR. EDMUNDO DAUBARO priėmimas, kurio metu Vatikano administracijai buvo pristatyta federacijos veikla. Vatikano administracijos priimamajame, bendraujant su Vatikano Kongregato Prefektu Kardinolu JOZEFU TOMKO (Vatican Congregat Prefect Cardinal  J. Em. JOZEF KARDINAL TOMKO), federacijos veikla kultūrizmo draudimo laikotarpiu labai sudomino kardinolą ir buvo nedviprasmiškai įvardinta, kaip disidentinė komunistinės  valdžios atžvilgiu. Ypač buvo pabrėžta Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO kultūrizmo gynimo peticijos reikšmė ir dėka to draudžiamam sportui iškovota pergalė. Oficialaus susitikimo metu Vatikane Pasaulinės federacijos prezidentas Dr. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS už sveikatingumo bei profesionalaus sporto vystymą  buvo Vatikano Kongregato Prefekto Kardinolo JOZEFO TOMKO apdovanotas Vatikano Pontifiko medaliu (Medaglia Ufficiale di Pontificato di Sua Santita Benedetto XVI, Headquarters State Vatican, Cita del Vaticano, March 29, 2011).

Vystant sportą pasaulyje, pastaraisiais metais vyko Pasaulinės W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. federacijos prezidento Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO susitikimai ir diskusijos su Austrijos Parlamento pirmininku profesoriumi ALFREDU GERSTLU (President Parliament Austria Professor Alfred Gerstl), su Slovakijos Respublikos ministru pirmininku VLADIMIRU MEČIARU (Prime Minister Republic Slovakia Vladimir Meciar), su Slovakijos Respublikos ministru pirmininku ROBERTU FICO (Prime Minister Republic Slovakia Robert Fico), su Slovakijos Respublikos Parlamento pirmininku JANU FIGELIU (President Parliament Republic Slovakia Jan Figel), su Lietuvos Respublikos Seimo pirmininku ARŪNU VALINSKU (Chairman Parliament Republic Lithuania Arunas Valinskas), su Lietuvos Respublikos ministru pirmininku GEDIMINU KIRKILU (Prime Minister Republic Lithuania Gediminas Kirkilas),  su Lietuvos Respublikos ministru pirmininku ALGIRDU BUTKEVIČIUMI (Prime Minister Republic Lithuania Algirdas Butkevicius), eile įvairių Europos bei Azijos šalių ministrų bei parlamentų pareigūnų.

Apibendrindami Dr. EDMUNDO DAUBARO veiklą T.S.R.S. laikotarpyje, Rusijos žurnalistai Dr. EDMUNDĄ DAUBARĄ vadina „Rusijos kultūrizmo tėvu“ («Отец российского культуризма»).

2015 metais tarptautinio turnyro atidarymo metu, Lietuvos Respublikos Vyriausybės atstovas ANTANAS VINKUS pavadino Dr. EDMUNDĄ DAUBARĄ „Lietuvos Ambasadoriumi pasaulyje“ („Lithuania Embassador for the World“). Turnyre dalyvavo eilė Lietuvos Respublikos Seimo narių, kurie sveikino sportines delegacijas iš Amerikos, Afrikos, Azijos ir Europos.

WORLD BODYBUILDING HISTORY.

1979. “AMBER PRIX INTERNATIONAL”.

What was going on in the U.S.S.R. at the background of the 1979 „Amber Prix International“?

ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS always was seeking career. In sport too. There is nothing bad about this, but he did it in awful ways. ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS was cheating his friends in sport, he did false votings and he blackmailed his friends against the political powers of the U.S.S.R.. Also he did bad things for those whom he did not like in bodybuilding.

Since 1973 bodybuilding was prohibited in the U.S.S.R.. Fighting against this DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS received a a letter with negatyve answer from the U.S.S.R. Minister of Sport. Having no support of bodybuilding friends through his petition to defend prohibited bodybuilding sport DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS reached the Victory. It was unexpected for everybody. It was unexpected for DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS too.

Many those who were afraid to fight against bodybuilding prohibition became active when DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS on his own risk organized successful 1978 “Amber Prix International”. After 1973 it was the first official bodybuilding contest that was done in public in the U.S.S.R.. Petition of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was presented in Moscow for the highest U.S.S.R. political powers and it opened doors for bodybuilding contests. Since 1978 “Amber Prix International” was the regular unofficial “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Championship” („неофициальный Чемпионат С.С.С.Р. по культуризму»).

Before the voyage of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS to Moscow ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS was against his petition. He was afraid. ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS explained, that “all DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS does is on his own risk. This way he will not risk his membership in the Communist Party. If something negative about the reaction of political powers happens ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS will say he did not know anything about the petition”.

After the successful 1978 “Amber Prix International” ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS remembered about the 1968 “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation” (“Atletinės gimnastikos komisija”, «Федерация культуризма С.С.С.Р.»). This federation at the F.I.H.C. (Federation Internationale Halterophile et Culturiste) times was based as a part of the “U.S.S.R. Weightlifting Federation” («Федерация тяжёлой атлетики С.С.С.Р.»). When bodybuilding was prohibited in 1973 the “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation” stopped it’s work and all five it’s Chairmen left bodybuilding. Basing on the DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS received political permit to organize “Amber Prix International” in Klaipeda ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS wanted the refresh the forgotten “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation”. It was absurd. The bodybuilding sport was prohibited and someone at the same time wants to set the International Bodybuilding Federation in the U.S.S.R..

DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was alone when everybody refused to support him in writing the petition to defend bodybuilding and to bring it to Moscow. But the achieved victory of the petition opened doors for everybody to develop bodybuilding in the U.S.S.R..

ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS. ON TOP AT ANY COST.

ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS wanted to rule the U.S.S.R. bodybuilding. After the success of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS he addressed the former Chairman of the 1968 “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation” and a known R.S.F.S.R. weightlifter ROMAN MOROZ (Роман Мороз). ROMAN MOROZ was working at the “U.S.S.R. Weightlifting Federation” at that time. Telling him about the 1978 “Amber Prix International” ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS suggested to refresh the old “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation”. It seemed unreal as on December, 1977 the U.S.S.R. Minister of Sport issued a new order to make the prosecution of bodybuilding more strict. Anyway the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Sport through ROMAN MOROZ wanted to control the illegal bodybuilding in the U.S.S.R. and he agreed. Both decided that the Chairman of the federation representing Moscow political power will be ROMAN MOROZ and the secretary will be ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS. In order not to be alone they included several statistic persons too. Though ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS already started prosecuting INNAR MARDO he was also included to the member’s list. Formally this organization was a part of the “U.S.S.R. Weightlifting Federation”. As weightlifters were not interested in bodybuilding in fact ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS was ruling the federation alone.

Wishing to be “A hero” in front of Moscow ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS invited several medium level U.S.S.R. weightlifting officials to the 1979 “Amber Prix International” in Klaipeda. It was a humor as ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS had nothing to do with “Amber Prix International” ever.  Having guests of the “U.S.S.R. Weightlifting Federation” the 1979 “Amber Prix” was of two parts – power exercises and evaluation of the body. Everything according the old F.I.H.C. traditions. Without power exercises weightlifting guests of Moscow had nothing common with bodybuilding.

From Moscow to Klaipeda arrived the medium level official of the “U.S.S.R. Weightlifting Federation” JURIJ SANDALOV (Юрий Сандалов) and the Chairman of the 1963, 1968 and now of the 1979 “U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation” ROMAN MOROZ (Роман Мороз). We want to underline that since 1978 the “Amber Prix International” was the “unofficial U.S.S.R. bodybuilding Championship”. So the level was very high.

Wishing to please the guests of Moscow ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS collected money from bodybuilders and bought for them Lithuanian televisions “Shilelis” («Шилялис»). It was difficult to get these televisions in the U.S.S.R. at those times. It is hard to say what was in mind of ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS. From Moscow to Klaipeda came only representatives of the “U.S.S.R. Weightlifting Federation” and they were not top officers. Bodybuilding was still prohibited in the U.S.S.R.. Even the Ministry of Sport could do nothing as the decision to prohibit bodybuilding came from the highest political powers of the U.S.S.R.. But ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS was satisfied by the position of the secretary of the formal federation. This was enough for him then. The federation went on doing nothing real. By the way later ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS went on presenting televisions to Moscow weightlifting officials again and again.

1979 „GEORG TENNO MEMORIAL“.

1979 IMPORTANT EVENTS AND HAPPENINGS.

We would like to remind that due to political reasons after 1973 bodybuilding sport was prohibited in the U.S.S.R. and Socialist countries. In 1978 DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS wrote the petition to defend bodybuilding. This petition he brought to Moscow and presented to the highest U.S.S.R. political institutions. As a result of the petition U.S.S.R. polititians let DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS to organize „Amber Prix International“ („Gintarinis prizas“, «Янтарный приз», 1968 – 2023) bodybuilding contests. In fact „Amber Prix International“ was the unofficial «U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Championship»  (неофициальный «Чемпионат С.С.С.Р. по культуризму»). The 1978 „Amber Prix“ was an example to other bodybuilders of the U.S.S.R.. During the bodybuilding prohibition they started showing „Amber Prix International“ to local political powers and asking permition to organize contests. Unfortunatelly it happened not so quickly. Only Kaunas (Lithuanian SSR) organizers started making political contests under the name „Comsomol Cup“ („Komjaunimo taurė“, «Кубок комсомола»).

In 1978 after the successfull „Amber Prix International“ DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS visited People‘s Republic of Poland and Czechoslovakian SSR. In Warszawa he spoke with bodybuilders of „Hercules“ Gym. They gave DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS a written invitation for the U.S.S.R. bodybuilders to participate at the International contest in Warszawa in 1979. In those times nobody could move through Socialist countries without invitation. Only then Ministries of Foregn Affairs of definite countries used to give permition to visit another  Socialist country.

In 1978 in Czechoslovakian SSR DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS met the President of the National Bodybuilding Federation VOJTECH FIALA (Войтех Фиала). They spoke about the details of the coming 1979 common event. Both agreed that DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS with the U.S.S.R. bodybuilders will come to the 1979 Czechoslovakia National Championship in Ostrava. At the same time there will be organized the competition „Czechoslovakia – U.S.S.R.“ («Чехословакия – СССР»). DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was presented invitations for the folowing U.S.S.R. bodybuilders: Lithuanians EUGENE GORELIK (Евгений Горелик), SAULIUS MISEVICHUS (Саулюс Мисявичус), ALBERTAS BESAKIRSKAS (Альбертас Бесакирскас) and Estonian OLEV ANNUS (Олев Аннус). Also DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS included to the U.S.S.R. delegation the Chairman of the „Vilnius Bodybuilding School“ CESLAV TAMULEVICH (руководитель «Вильнюсской школы культуризма» Чеслав Тамулевич). After 1973 the U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation («Федерация культуризма С.С.С.Р.») was closed. The Secretary of the formal U.S.S.R. Bodybuilding Federation ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS (Романас Калинаускас) still kept contacts with Moscow. When he learned about the coming event in Czechoslovakia and when he learned that he is not included to the delegation, he started writing letters to the communist power institutions. ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS wanted to ruin the 1979 coming contest „Czechoslovakia – U.S.S.R.“ and he did it. The contest was canceled. The invitations for the U.S.S.R. bodybuilders still are kept in the archieves of the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. International (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation).

Then DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS gave his invitation to 1979 International contest in Warszawa to his friend INNAR MARDO (Иннар Мардо, 1946 – 2002). In 1979 INNAR MARDO went to Poland with OLEV ANNUS. OLEV ANNUS won his category and the Over All Winner‘s title. There INNAR MARDO met organizers of various Socialist countries and they invited the U.S.S.R. bodybuilders to participate at their contests.

This was in 1979 that INNAR MARDO and Estonian INDREK OTSUS (Индрек Отсус) participated at the „Trener“ contest in Czechoslovakian SSR. INDREK OTSUS was the Over All Winner and he won in his category against the 1975 I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders) Europe Champion PETER STACH (Петер Стах).

At the same 1979 INNAR MARDO with OLEV ANNUS and INDREK OTSUS participated at the International contest in Budapest (Hungarian SSR). Both Estonia SSR bodybuilders won their categories. INDREK OTSUS won against the famous ANTON HOLIC (Антон Холич) and OLEV ANNUS won against PETER URICEK (Петер Уричек) who were top bodybuilders of Czechoslovakian SSR at that time.

In 1979 after the conflict with INNAR MARDO OLEV ANNUS started writing bad letters about him to the political institutions of the Estonian SSR. The conflict was influenced by the Bodybuilding Organizers of Lithuanian SSR who hated the International results achieved by INNAR MARDO. ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS was among the enemies of INNAR MARDO. Lithuanians pressed OLEV ANNUS to take the place of INNAR MARDO.

After the participation at the 1979 „Trener“ competition the Estonian political powers closed the gym of INNAR MARDO. The similar process was in the Lithuanian SSR too. Lithuanian bodybuilding organizers hated DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. It was because DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS got so great results due to his petition. Also due to successfull 1978 „Amber Prix International“ which brought a total attention of the U.S.S.R. bodybuilders. When support to defend bodybuilding sport was needed no one of the U.S.S.R. bodybuilders was together with DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS. No one of them supported him in his fight to defend bodybuilding sport. Due to the conflicts in 1979 DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS lost his „Gintaras“ gym too. It was closed. The Lithuanians led by ROMANAS KALINAUSKAS prohibited for a pupil of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS at that time the best Klaipeda bodybuilder ALBERTAS REMEIKA (Альбертас Ремейка) to participate at the 1979 „Georg Tenno Memorial“ («Мемориал Георга Тенно», 1971 – 1989). This bodybuilder successfully participated at the competition in Kaunas (Lithuanian SSR) in 1979. Then he had imperssive huge muscles and weight over 120 kilograms.

This way due to the intriques and conflicts no one of bodybuilders of the Lithuanian SSR could participate at the International contests in the Socialist countries in 1979. This way INNAR MARDO participated at the International contests only with bodybuilders of the Estonian SSR. All bodybuilders of the U.S.S.R. were left behind.

(the article is based on the documents and correspondence of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS with INNAR MARDO).
