her talents in July's Partner Stretching guide. Executive Art Director Tom Staebler
designed and photographed this issue's cover to celebrate The Girls of the Big
Eight and chose a minimal football outfit for Kym; it was obvious that she didn't
need any pads. The fans in the studio, apparently full of college spirit, kept
shouting, "Raw, raw!"
