Original Toronto Star caption: Perfect balance: Ten-year-old Elfi Schlegal demonstrates one of her routines on balance beam during workout yesterday. A Grade 5 student in Etobicoke, she has just returned with Toronto-York Eagles teammates from West Coast tour in which she won over-all title in Portland against girls up to 18. U.S. coaches who watched her perform agreed she has great potential, and it's quite possible she'll be in 1980 Olympics. In Vancouver, she was 10th among gymnasts hoping to make '76 Olympics. She works out five times a week.
