Finland's Juhanni Jnervinen today won the world speed skating champion- ship. His compatriot Toivo. Salonen was second.
This was the greatest triumph for Finnish skating since the pre-war- day's of Clas Thunberg.

The newly-crowned champion Bnished eighth in last year's world championships.
A fortnight ago, he gained second place in the European Championships staged at Gotehenburg, Sweden.
He commented: "I approach skal- ing as a technician... Luckily for me conditions were perfect today and i covered the distance without feeling any physical strain.”
A dedicated skater since a child, Jaorvinen plans a concentrated future career in skating.
Next Tuesday he leaves Oslo for Squaw Valley to take part in a big international meet.
His pretty wife incidentally, is a literature student at Helsinki Universi- ty.-France-Presse and U.P.I.
