Original Toronto Star caption: A standout in any crowd. Few people failed to notice Iuliana Simonova yesterday as Olympic athletes got together in Montreal to meet each other and exchange national pins. Simonova is a member of the Soviet Union's women's basketball team and she is 2 metres; 10 centimetres tall. That's 7 feet; in case you're not equipped with a metric converter. Surrounded mostly by her teammates; she seemed oblivious to the gawkers.
