USSR Display
LUDMILA TOURISCHEVA and NICOLAI ANDRIANOV gained a unique double for Russia by winning the men's and women's first ever World Cup, in London last December. Their supremacy should ensure the usual haul of gold medals for Russia in the Montreal Olympics, only four months away.
In this special display the Russians demonstrate not only the depth of quality in the Olympic team of Tourischeva, Andrianov, Saadi and Olga Korbut , but introduce NATALIA KRASHENINNIKOVA , one of the world's leading Modern Rhythmic gymnasts, in a sport which the Russians want included in the Moscow Olympics.
