Chiharu “Chick” Igaya ’57 gets airborne while training for three events at the Squaw Valley, California, games: the slalom, giant slalom, and the downhill. “I used ‘cha-cha’ to describe the way I skied because that dance was very popular at the time,” he told DAM in 2010. Igaya competed for Japan in three Olympics and won a silver medal in the slalom in 1956.
