Todo esto, sin embargo, no logró hacer olvidar la ausencia del fines Paavo Nurmi, a quien se le prohibió asistir a sus cuartos Juegos Olímpicos consecutivos, debido a que el Comité Olímpico lo acusó de haber recibido un pago "excesivo" en un viaje a Alemania en 1929 como atleta "profesional".

Just before the Games, the IOC said that Nurmi would not be allowed to participate in his fourth Olympics because he had received excessive expense money on a trip to Germany in 1929.
