From: HORN%HYDRA%sdi.polaroid.com@RELAY.CS.NET Russian language subscriptions to Krasnaya Zvezda are available in the USA. Contact Victor Kamkin, New York, NY for details on subscriptions and prices. I don't have a recent bill available, so I can't give their complete address or telephone number. I have not found an easily available reasonably priced english version. The newspaper is delivered by airpost and usually arrives within a couple weeks of publication. Cost is about the same as a weekly plus sunday delivery of a US paper. The language difficulty is nowhere as severe as Pravda, but it will challenge an inexperienced Russian reader. Particularly severe is the lack of helpful hints on how to read the inuendo and code words. I gave up after a year and dropped my subscription. Rob Horn horn%hydra@polaroid.com
