Of His Travels In Russia
By DAPHNE HAWKES
Special to The Dally Tar Heel
"Russia appears to be a
child-centered society in the
real sense of the phrase," a
UNC psychologist says. "Even
when a family has very little,
the children are the last to go
without things."
Although he disclaims having
expert knowledge about child
rearing practices in the Soviet
Union, the three weeks Dr.
Ilalbert B. Robinson spent
there last summer have given
him many insights into the
counUy and its peopled
In the opinion of the child
development authority, "the
children are definitely the
favored group in the Soviet
Union."
Dr. Robinson traveled, in
Russia under the auspices of
the JointUsJU&SR Scientific
Exchange 'Program and visit-
ed numerous health and edu-
cational centers for yoiung
children.
He is director of the Frank
Porter Graham Development
Center at the University of
North Carolina and a professor
of psychology here.
Full of praise for the manner
in which he was received in the
Soviet Union, Robinson speaks

This arresting title stems
from the alarmed expression
of the central character, a
modern Everyman named Lit

Leslie Bricusse).

are grouped according to age.
Comprehensive medical and
dental care, and three meals a
day are available for all
children at the centers.
