Well and Jokes!

Many years ago, when I started working in the editorial office, I was sent along with the Komsomol workers to Stepanovka, a village in which the main enterprise was a forestry enterprise.

I'm not sure, a lot of time has passed, but I think that it was necessary to prepare for discussion at the bureau of the district party committee some questions. The main one was the second secretary of the district committee of the Komsomol, Anatoly Mutorov.

This was my first business trip, and I was ready to take the work very seriously. We went by water transport, in Stepanovka were in the early morning, there was no sense to go to bed, and Anatoly decided to joke. We slowly came to the house where the Komsomol leader Alexei Morozov, a famous chess player, lived.

The front door was backed from the outside. On the porch stood a simple dress, in which they work in the garden. We put this shoe in pairs on the sidewalk leading to the gate. It turned out as if someone were walking, took off their shoes and disappeared. We laughed and are waiting for Alexei to react.

He got angry: he hardly got out of the house, almost was late for work. But I did not sulk for long, I laughed. It turned out that such a prank was in the order of things: they would close a stovepipe to someone, hide their street shoes, or close the gate to the castle ... Apparently they did not play enough.

Only when you are young can you go to New Year's Eve without a hat, so as not to spoil your hair, in thin stockings or pantyhose, so that it's beautiful and you should not change clothes, although it's thirty degrees frost. Our interests were very different.

Then many hockey fans, but how to watch the match, if the TVs in the village once or twice and obchelsya ?? My father organized assistants, on the roof of the house they strengthened the antenna, and now, when the hockey battles were going on, friends came to see us-the Komsomol players watch hockey. For some reason, in memory, apart from ours, Czechoslovak athletes.

Holik, Holichke, remember those names? The TV was black and white, but it does not matter. I liked working with young people, and myself was young. Do not get bored. The ensemble "Zvezdochka" came from Seversk, consisting of servicemen, boys and girls. There was an officer with the guys, but without our help in an unfamiliar place they would have had to.

I had to take them to Kliukvinka and Stepanovka. People enjoyed going to concerts. Obobenno liked the room where two guys depicted the scene from the "Swan Lake". One was in a white bundle-Odette, the other with wings-a kite. Predator attacked. Odette was dodging. At some point the bundle on Odette began to descend, the rubber band supposedly weakened.

Our "ballerina" skirt pulled up, and the audience just died of laughter. If the memory does not change me, after the concerts the artists arranged dances. I did not have time to finish this work, call from the district committee of the Komsomol: you need to give some information to the regional committee, come back.

Then you go to the student building squadron-call, ask for help, some problems with the building materials. That we organize the festival, and we must necessarily invite war participants, their performances are scheduled. It's time to check whether everything is ready for sports competitions.

There were enthusiasts, Komsomol activists who always helped, and they could be hoped for. In Kljukvinka was a vocal-instrumental ensemble. Very fond of his performances, especially the songs performed by Nina Morozova. She was tall, slender, beautiful, with a strong voice, she just fascinated the audience. Her husband, Vladimir, played in the same ensemble.

So far, in my ears: "Summer, ah, summer ..." In the Komsomol I learned to work with people. It helped me in the future. We organized the institute of public correspondents in the newspaper. Among them there were many friends on the Komsomol.
