Good year predicted in Russia
NZPA-Reuter Moscow
Superstitious Russians have been told that 1985, which according to the Oriental calendar is the Year of the Buffalo, means health and hard work.
The work will be pleasant and any obstacles easily overcome, said an expert on Oriental traditions, writing in the trade union daily, “Trud.”
He predicted a favourable year generally, saying that the buffalo is a peaceful creature. He did not say ff this was a good omen for new talks starting between the super-Powers in January or the state of EastWest relations.
