}} Ulise Joseph "Pete" Desjardins (April 10, 1907 – May 6, 1985) was an American diver who competed in the 1924 and 1928 Summer Olympics. Born in Saint Pierre, Manitoba, Canada, Desjardins grew up in Florida.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hickoksports.com/biograph/desjardp.shtml )〕 In 1924 he won the silver medal in the 3 m springboard competition and finished sixth in the plain high diving event. Four years later he won gold medals in the 3 meter springboard and 10 meter platform.〔 At the 1928 Games Desjardins had the maximum score for two of his springboard dives, but his platform gold medal was unexpected. Farid Simaika from Egypt initially won the competition, and the Egyptian anthem was already being played at the award ceremony, when the judges reconsidered their scoring and placed Desjardins first.〔 Desjardins studied economics at Stanford University and is a member of the Stanford Athletic Hall of Fame, though he never won a collegiate championship. He performed swimming exhibitions in the Billy Rose's Aquacade, together with Johnny Weismuller, Martha Norelius and Helen Meany, for which he was declared a professional. He continued to appear in the Aquacade until World War II, and later performed in diving shows through the 1960s.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pete Desjardins」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
