Brown, the faculty adviser for Habitat and Human- th< ity, spent his August in the Soviet Union helping to de restore a Russian Orthodox cathedral. an It turned into even more of an adventure than he ov had suspected when a coup attempted to overthrow the Soviet government. Although the coup failed, it de created a massive attitude change.

For 70 years of Com- tee munist reign, Russia's grand cathedrals were used as mo government storage space. In 1988, Soviet President vie Mikhail Gorbachev returned all confiscated property out back to the church. Ru At that time, there were only 300 "working" Soviet Uk churches. There are now more than 12,000 churches 1 after encouragement from groups such as the National fun Council on Churches. riv< The Soviets, with generations of virtual atheism behind them, are now unsure of how to worship. The j volunteers spent three weeks chipping plaster, digging holes and using pulleys to transfer bricks from one n* level to another in the cathedral. a sol< Brown believes their attempt will serve as a role ma moaei to tne Russians tor how a church should be- 4 have. Most of the Russian population has never been thii in a church, he said, and of those that have, most onl know the church as it was before the Communist acti Party: the incense, robes and priests who babbled in i foreign Slavic tongues. cris "It now has overcome the image itself," Brown said strc *S$j&&silfj |1" W* m W/ \ ML fW JL.?%\ J^xal Hell's Bells is an expose' on rock music.

Gradually, the Soviets will learn re-establishing eir church is an important endeavor and they will velop their own national religion by observing us d choosing which characteristics they want as their m, Brown said. Brown's group traveled with 14 Soviet college stunts: 11 from Russia and one each from Latvia, thuania and Georgia. When asked if any expressed tr of democracy, he answered they do not seem to ir democracy, but they do feel hostile towards other t_t* WDUCS. Df the group that traveled with the American volunrs, the Lativan and the Lithuanian students were the ?st urgent in their desire for freedom from the Sot Union. The Georgian did not feel as strongly abseparation. The nationalists of the group were the ssian students who expressed "anti-Latvian, antiraine, anti-Lithuanian" views. 3rown believes democracy will not work in a disictional republic. A week before the volunteers ar3d in Russia, he explained, 'There was a reunion ir Red Square of soldiers who fought in *hanistan." irown said while there, he saw a local vendor putl free enterprise to work selling watermelons out of art Outraged at the price for the watermelons, the jiers smashed the cart and melons and injured the n.
