Five teams from Iron Curtain nations are out of the World Amateur Ice Hockey Championships as a revised schedule is drawn for the Colorado Springs event March 7 to 18.

The withdrawals stem from East German travel permit issues tied to Berlin wall tensions, with the Czechs and Russians also original entrants.
