A Member of the Italian Olympic Basketball Team Jumps for the Ball

A member of the Italian team jumps for the ball as it narrowly misses his goal after a determined attack by the Iraq team at Harringay this evening. The Italians were the winnners of the match. Harringay Stadium was designed by Dr. Oscar Faber, the Arena was a stark modernist octagonal-shaped building which borrowed heavily from the Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. It was erected adjacent to the Harringay Stadium in just eight months between February and October 1936. Olympic Photo Association
