Article in the New York Times: West Germany rated no.1 riding squad in world standing

Ed Corrigan has written an article for The New York Times. The article with the title "West Germany rated no.1 riding squad in world standing" was published in the edition of 25.01.1970. The article dealt with the annualy world ranking list of show jumpers created by Max E. Ammann.

West Germany was the leading team in international horse show competition last year and Alwin Schockemöhle, a member of the squad, was the world's top rider.

These conclusions were reached by Max E. Ammann, a 31‐year‐old Swiss foreign correspondent who is stationed in New York. Ammann covers the cultural scene and writes political commentaries for newspapers in Switzerland, West Germany and Austria.

Max E. Ammann worked in New York (USA) as correspondent for Swiss, German and Austrian newspapers from 1964-1973. He was responsible for general themes as well as for politics, culture and sport.
