Surnomm\u00e9e \u00ab\u00a0Calamity Jane\u00a0\u00bb, Jane Bell a fait partie de l\u2019\u00e9quipe f\u00e9minine championne olympique du relais 4×100 m aux Jeux d\u2019Amsterdam de 1928, ce qui marquait du m\u00eame coup la premi\u00e8re pr\u00e9sence de femmes canadiennes en athl\u00e9tisme aux Jeux olympiques.<\/em><\/p>\n

Florence Isabel \u00ab Jane \u00bb Bell a couru le troisi\u00e8me relais conduisant au record du monde \u00e9tabli par son \u00e9quipe, d\u00e9crochant par le fait m\u00eame la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or du relais 4×100 m f\u00e9minin \u00e0 Amsterdam en 1928 avec ses co\u00e9quipi\u00e8res Myrtle Cook<\/a>, Ethel Smith<\/a> et Bobbie Rosenfeld<\/a>. Elle a aussi atteint la deuxi\u00e8me ronde au 100 m. \u00c0 leur retour au pays apr\u00e8s les Jeux, l\u2019\u00e9quipe du relais a \u00e9t\u00e9 accueillie par 200 000 personnes \u00e0 la gare de Toronto. Bell et les cinq autres femmes qui ont repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 le Canada en athl\u00e9tisme \u00e0 Amsterdam en 1928 ont re\u00e7u le sobriquet de \u00ab Matchless Six<\/em> \u00bb (ou les \u00ab\u00a0Six incomparables\u00a0\u00bb) en raison de leur domination de leur sport \u00e0 leur apog\u00e9e.<\/p>\n

Membre du Parkdale Ladies Athletic Club, Bell \u00e9tait une athl\u00e8te compl\u00e8te. L\u2019ann\u00e9e suivant ses succ\u00e8s olympiques, elle fut couronn\u00e9e championne canadienne au 60 m haies, au lancer du javelot et au lancer de la balle de baseball.<\/p>\n

L\u2019implication de Bell dans le sport a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 13 ans, inspir\u00e9e par son p\u00e8re qui \u00e9tait joueur de crosse de comp\u00e9tition et qui lui a donn\u00e9 son surnom \u00ab Calamity Jane<\/em> \u00bb. Elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 dipl\u00f4m\u00e9e de l\u2019\u00e9cole Margaret Eaton School for Girls \u00e0 Toronto en 1930 et a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 enseigner l\u2019\u00e9ducation physique au YWCA de Guelph, faisant d\u2019elle une professionnelle et mettant fin \u00e0 sa carri\u00e8re en athl\u00e9tisme.<\/p>\n

S\u2019\u00e9tablissant aux \u00c9tats-Unis avec son mari, Bell est devenue citoyenne am\u00e9ricaine, en plus d\u2019une joueuse de curling et de golf de comp\u00e9tition. Quand elle s\u2019est \u00e9teinte, en 1998 \u00e0 Fort Myers en Floride \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 88 ans, Bell \u00e9tait la derni\u00e8re survivante de l\u2019\u00e9quipe de relais olympique de 1928.<\/p>\n

Bell a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9e au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e olympique du Canada en 1949 et au Panth\u00e9on des sports canadiens en 1955.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
