Names & Faces: Vera Caslavska, Craig Sager

The seven-time Olympic gymnastics gold medalist who stood up against the 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia died Tuesday in Prague at 74 of pancreatic cancer.

Four years later, she became an outspoken supporter of liberal reforms meant to lead toward democratization of communist Czechoslovakia, an era known as the Prague Spring.

Standing on the top of the medal stand alongside Soviet gymnast Larisa Petrik, with whom she shared the gold in the floor exercise, Ms. Caslavska turned her head down and to the right when the Soviet anthem was played.

The TNT basketball broadcaster received a rare third bone-marrow transplant Wednesday as he continues his fight against cancer.
