Update: Reunite LCS with a Swede by Jim Iovino, Ace Reporter In Issue 86 LCS Hockey announced that we were looking for a Swede by the name of Ola Jorup. Unfortunately, we have yet to receive any leads to determine his whereabouts. Please re-read this excerpt from the original column and keep an eye out for our Swedish pal. It's not every day that people meet Swedes. But when it happens, it is considered a special moment. Considering that there are only 8.8 million people living in Sweden, the staff of LCS Hockey feels lucky to have known at least one of them. Our encounter with a real live Swede occurred back in our days at Greensburg Salem Senior High School in Greensburg, Pa. During my junior year, (the rest of the staff's senior year), our high school was infiltrated by a Swede named Ola Jorup. Ola was part of an exchange program in 1993. Lord knows how he ended up in Greensburg, but his presence helped all of us learn how to hate Finland, and our ice hockey team certainly loved the skills he brought to the team. Greensburg Salem only got to enjoy Ola for one year, because as soon as summer hit, Ola went back home. And that was the last we heard from Ola Jorup. Five years later, LCS is hoping that we'll be able to locate Ola and find out what he's doing. That's where you, our valued European readers, come into play. You are our eyes and ears in Western Europe. If anyone can find Ola Jorup, we know you can. If you have any information on the whereabouts of Ola Jorup, or are personal friends of the lovable Swede, please e-mail us at sportif@westol.com. Here's the vital information you'll need for your mission, should you choose to accept it:
Name: Ola Jorup |
