Georges Anthony

Water and Boat Sports

Georges Charles Marie Adolphe Antony, listed on Wikipedia as Georges Anthony, was a Belgian rowing coxswain, born on 26 November 1890 in Liège. At the 1928 Summer Olympics he won the bronze medal in the coxed pair, a boat where the coxswain steers and directs the two rowers. He also took part in the eight event at the same Games, but his team did not reach the final. The English Wikipedia article on him is short and records these two Olympic starts as the main facts of his career.
