Alcohol and collective farmers. Hilarity ensues. (Or not, depending on your perspective.)
Excerpts from the village newspaper of L. collective farm, S. region.
25 September 1957
Collective farmers Kh - - -, Mu - - -, Mo - - -, and the driver Le- - - stole 158 kilos of sunflower seeds from the collective farm. After selling them to some un-named third party, what do you imagine they did with the money?
"Пропойка." They went on a drinking binge, what else?
And for their troubles they were referred to the district prosecutor's office.
But then again, they weren't as bad as the guy who lost his job because, a couple of months earlier while driving drunk, he crashed a Moskvich belonging to the collective farm.
Local newspapers are way more fun! Or at least less predictable.
