City Withdraws '84 Plans for Olympic Bid
New Orleans withdraws its bid for the 1984 Summer Olympics amid uncertainty over federal funding and a world trade exposition. Lt. Gov. James Fitzmorris said the decision leaves New York and Los Angeles as U S bidders and notes time constraints before the Sept. 25 proposal deadline in Colorado Springs. He cited no firm federal backing and cites $2 million already allocated to the 1980 Winter Games as context.
