£10 EACH TO SPEND
Sixty Russian athletes 40 men and 20 women-went on a three-hour shopping tour
of London's busy Oxford Streel recently. It was their first visit to the shops since they arrived a week earlier. Each was given £10 in English money to spend.
The athletes had come to London for the Britain versus Russia athletics match over the work-end of August 24 and 25. They went to Selfridge's department store in Oxford Street, wandered around freety.
The Moscow store Most admired the store, but said: "It does not seem very large. GUM is about twice as big." No Soviet Embassy offlelals accompanied the athletes, whose malu dificulty was Inek of interpreters, Nevertheless, most of them bought the things they wanted,
Mrs Ulga Pletukhova, the women's trainer and chaperone, bought a pate-blue plastie raincoat and that for herself, while Mrs Nina Otkalenko, 30-year-old holder of the women's 800 Metres world record, brought a flowered nylon dress length, reduced to half-price, for £ 2 Gd. Said she: "We have nylons and ameihing like it called Kapron in Rumis, but this is very cheap,"
