In 1931 I left for Leningrad to attend the university there. There were no exams required if one had a certificate of the nine-grades school and an appropriate social status. I wanted to enter the Chemical Technological Institute, but they didn’t provide a dormitory, and so I applied for an institute with a dormitory. Thus I entered the Textile Institute.
This photo of me was taken in Leningrad in 1935
