Bending over backwards: Cindy Shatto of Toronto dips her head into a downturn last night in the final of Olympic platform diving. Miss Shatto was in second place after three dives; but fell back to fifth at the end; one rank ahead of teammate Teri York of Vancouver. Elena Vaytsekhovskaia of the Soviet Union; who said she took to diving because swimming is dull; was gold medalist. Canada. July 25th, 1976 (Ron Dull for Toronto Star)
