GB v USSR
(Two matches in only five days against two of the most formidable athletics nations in Europe is the daunting task facing Britain's men and women athletes this weekend.
In the first of the two-day matches the Soviet Union are confident of repeating their victory in Kiev last year, if only because of their overwhelming superiority in the field events. Organised by the BAAB in conjunction with the Meat Promotion Executive
