Ed Corrigan has written an article for The New York Times. The article with the title "West Germany rated the best of 1971 show jumping teamsr" was published in the edition of 20.02.1972. The article dealt with the annualy world ranking list of show jumpers created by Max E. Ammann.

For the third year in row, West Germany and Britain dominated international show jumping in 1971.

There was one important change, however, from 1970. That year, Britain narrowly beat out West Germany for first place. In 1971, West Germany not only closed the gap but finished the year at the top in both individual and team competition. These conclusions were reached by Max Ammann, a 33‐year‐old former correspondent now the editor of the Swiss weekly newspaper in New York.

Max E. Ammann worked in New York (USA) as correspondent for Swiss, German and Austrian newspapers from 1964-1973. He was responsible for general themes as well as for politics, culture and sport.
