Finally, director and former skater Jaap Havekotte inspects the skates. Furthermore the worldchampionships ice-skating in Deventer. Harm Kuipers wins the 1500m of Kondajov (USSR) and becomes second at this distance. Göran Claeson (Sweden) wins the 10km from Piet Kleine. Claeson became first in the overall classification, Sten Stensen (Sweden) second, Kleine third and Kuipers fourth. Professional driver Kees Verkerk is sitting in the grandstand.
