Original Toronto Star caption: Prior wobbles prior to falling. Straining for a medal and a new Commonwealth record with his jerk lift yesterday at Olympics; Russ Prior of Ottawa wobbles before falling and getting neither. After failing to get weights to full height; he tumbled to left but was not hurt. The fall occurred in heavyweight final; in which he finally placed 11th with total of 362.5 kilos in snatch and jerk. Bulgaria's Valentin Khritov won.
