don't have the ability, time, or
interest to compete in sports on
the Big Ten level?

joys athletics," would be the em-
phatic answer of Intramural

aided by their staff of eight teach-
ing fellows, administer play in
thirty-six different sports in

call her "Big Red." Rival players
shiver at the sight of her.
She is the latest of the Soviet
Union's succession of athletic
amazons.
Her name is Ravilya Kalimova
Prokopenko. She is six feet, seven
incles' talt. She wears a size 16
shoe. She has hands like hams
and the shoulders of a bull.
She plays center for the Rus-
sian women's basketball team.
The Russian women are by far
the best in these fourth World
Student Games. They are big, tall
and tough-but none as awesome
as Ravilya.
When she walks down the street,
When she walks down the
street,. her elbows usually swing-
ing over the heads of her. com-
panions, people stop and gape.
She clogs Budapest traffic.
Small boys and girls flock around
her for autographs. She can't en-
ter another avenue - such as
swimming or gymnastics-without
taking attention away from the
sport at hand.
"There's the big Russian girl,"
people whisper in many languages.
"That's Big Red."
Ravilya appears non-plussed by
all this attention.
Ravilya said she never played
basketball before this year. She
was working peacefully on her
father's cooperative farm in
Tashkent, the capital of Uzbeg,
when. she was discovered by a
Russian sports official.
Noting her tremendous size, the
official persuaded her to come to
Moscow. She entered the univer-
sity-the route to stardom for all

Seat Covers
Installed tin
'M'Stadium
The University of Michigan
football stadium, largest college-
owned structure of its kind, will
have a "new look" for fans at-
tending the Wolverines' six home
games this fall.
More than 30 running miles of
blue fiber glass seat covers with
maize numbers,, have been placed
on its 101,001 seats this summer.
Across from the pressbox side of
the stadium or the east side, a
huge block "M" of Maize and'
Blue that extends between the=
20-yard lines, and reaches from
the fifth row to row 72 in height,
also has been installed in the new
arrangement. .
The project was begun last
March for the comfort of the fans
as well as to beautify the stadium.
A whole carload of lumber was
used to replace weathered or
broken seats before the fiber glass
rows were installed. Some idea of
the tremendous task involved may
be had from the fact that each
row of seat covers had to be es-
pecially tailored to fit into its
section and row, and hand-
carried into the stadium to be
fitted into place. In. addition to
the lumber, more than 45,000
carriage bolts and 325,000 pop
rivets were used in the job, be-
sides stainless steel bands and
clips to fasten the covers into
place. The corner and ends of the
stadium provided special problems
where sections had to be cut and
fitted on the site.
While the seats will be ready for
the opening crowd at the Cali-
fornia game-high school band
day-September 25, it may take
until the end of October before
the project is completed.
Congratulations!
Michigan State played its first
football game in 1896, defeating
Lansing High School, 12-0.
