            The 1936 Games were held in the twin Bavarian towns of Garmisch and Partenkirchen. An efficient bus service allowed 500,000 people to attend the final day's events. Alpine skiing events were included for the first time, and this led to a major controversy. The IOC, overruling the International Ski Federation (FIS), declared that ski instructors could not take part in the Olympics because they were professionals. Incensed, the Austrian and Swiss skiers boycotted the events. The dispute carried on after the Games and it was decided that skiing would not be included in the 1940 Olympics. Sonja Henie earned her third gold medal and Karl Schäfer his second. Speed skater Ivan Ballangrud of Norway won three of the four races, including the 500m, the shortest race, and the 10,000m, the longest. Great Britain upset Canada in ice hockey, but it should be noted that ten of the twelve British players lived in Canada.
            　　第四届冬季奥林匹克运动会于１９３６年在德国的两个城市加米施和帕滕基兴举行。在这届奥运会上，主办方高效率的公共汽车服务将50万观众带到了最后一天比赛的赛场，成为早期奥运会历史上少见的盛况。高山滑雪在本届奥运会上首次成为正式比赛项目，但也引起争议：国际奥委会否定了其下属的国际滑雪联合会的比赛规则，不允许滑雪教练员参加奥运会，因为国际奥委会认为他们都是职业运动员，与国际奥委会只允许业余运动员参加比赛的精神相违背。这引起了瑞士和奥地利两国滑雪运动员的不满，他们抵制了这届奥运会的高山滑雪比赛。
