During the Torino Olympics Cindy Klassen (Speed Skating)from Canada won 5 medals. 1 Gold, 2 Silver and 2 Bronze. That's made her the biggest winner in Torino.\n\nIn 1980, in Lake PLacid, Eric Heiden from USA won 5 gold medals. That I think is the best in one olympics.\n\nBut, Ole Einar Bjoerndalen (Biathlon) is the most decorated athlete. He had 6 medals before the Torino games and add three other medals. So he has now 9 winter olympic medals (5-3-1).

Alaska has lots of native Americans, and they are probably the lowest in numbers of any of the minority. So I don't think Alaska will have any all white towns either, but I did like your take on the question :)  saying that snow makes it white :)\n\nHonestly, there are like 40 different kinds of "white" either way.  Look at Swedes, they tend to have blond hair/ blue eyes, and tend to be slightly taller..  Dutch on average are the tallest of any race.  Irish tend to be slightly shorter, and naturally stronger due to a higher percentage of Type II b muscle fibers. The gene for red hair only exists in Scottish people. So if you have read hair, you have at least some Scottish in you.  Italians tend to have black hair, and their body hair tends to grow faster. Russians, are less likely to get hypothermia, and have a thicker epidermis, this helps their bodies retain heat better, and makes them less likely to suffer skin abrasions.   These are not racial stereotypes, these are genetic facts, which have been proven.\n\nNot all "light skinned" people are the same.  Grouping all light skinned people together, is like grouping Iraqi's, Indian, Chinese,  and japanese, and saying they are all the same.  They are in fact all different,  though there skin colors may all be similar.  \nOnce more, look at blacks.  People from the virgin islands, though considered "black", and very dark in skin tone, tend to be a lot shorter, have higher pitched voices, and have small physical frames.  While people from Nigeria are taller, larger framed, and have deeper voices. Ethiopians tend to have slightly recessed hair lines, and along with Kenyans, they both tend to have a higher percentage of Type II A muscle Fibres, which is why they have produced so many world class distance runners.\n\nI don't like the idea of grouping all "white" people together, I'm Swedish, not "white",  out of a family of 7, all of my brothers and sisters have blond hair and blue eyes. My father, both of my grandfathers, myself, and all 3 of my brothers are all over 6'1 as well.\n\nIf by "white towns", you meant all the buildings were painted white, I can't help you there, maybe someone with a can of white spray paint got bored? and painted a whole town?

Louis Sockalexis, a Penobscot Indian, was believed to be the first Native American in the major leagues, signed in 1897 by the Cleveland Spiders, later the Cleveland Indians.\nJim Thorpe was also a native american and played in the MLB for 6 years.\n\n\nThis is the only thing that I could find:   Dr. Jeffrey Powers-Beck's, The American Indian Integration of Baseball, detailing the entrance of Native Americans in Major League Baseball

There are many books on this topic. I usually refer people to check out books about the Inuits of Alaska. Your library can help you with this. Good luck
