A newspaper article written by an assistant flight director which stresses the importance of cosmonaut training is presented. The preliminary stage of training is discussed, and the training of a crewmaker on a real spacecraft is briefly covered. The success in training foreign cosmonauts by Soviets is also discussed. The author feels that training is even more important today than it was seven or eight years ago because of the increased complexity of the experiments and the length of time a cosmonaut spends in space now.
