Vacationing German students
lose packs, passport in theft
By Debbie Howiett
Of lit* EmnM
Two German students on an eight-week tour
of the United States and Canada had two back
packs filled with personal possessions, a passport
and $120 stolen from the EMU Saturday morning
Birgit Wetzel and Uli Kaesser, medical
students spending their semester break in North
America, were showering at Leighton Hall and
had stored some of their possessions in the
lockers near the EMU recreation center When
they returned, the packs and most of their per
sonal belongings were gone
The couple is most concerned about the loss
of a passport and Kaesser's German books,
which he needs for his doctoral dissertation
With only one passport the couple can not
find temporary jobs to replace the money that was
stolen Without the passport, they anticipate
problems trying to leave the United States and
re-enter Germany
“We have only the clothes on our back,”
Kaesser said
“We re upset, but we ll be happy just to get
back the personal things,” Wetzel added
She said the personal things consist of pic
tures and film of their trip and the addresses of
people they’ve met on their trip
“They are things that are just useful to us,”
Wetzel says
“The worth the thief gets out of it isn't as
much as we lose,” she says “But if we are honest,
we don’t feel so terrible The guy we stay with is
friendly but it is the shock of the moment. You lose
trust in people — that's the part I don’t like.”
They have been befriended by Eugene re
sident Foy Carneval, Kaesser says.
Carneval has given the pair food and a place
to stay. "Without him," Wetzel says, "we would
have had a really bad time here ”
The missing items include two backpacks, a
dark green "Silvretta" with an external metal
frame and a blue "Messmer” with an internal
frame The second pack contained a "Petrie"
camera with a regular lens and a wide-angle lens,
a "Kodak" instamatic camera, several German
biochemistry books, the passport, $120, clothing
and food
The two travelers went to the Main Desk after
they discovered their things missing and from
there, filed a report with the Eugene Police
Department
Wetzel and Kaesser worked as nurses during
evenings to pay for the trip
"It's not like here, the medical students aren’t
rich We have free universities, but we have to
work," Kaesser says
The couple plans to stay in Eugene until early
Thursday morning in hopes of finding their pos
sessions The pair has return plane tickets to
Germany but hasn’t found a ride to Seattle to
catch their flight by Thursday afternoon
They ask that anyone with information
regarding the backpacks contact them at 1442
East 19th Ave or phone them at 342-7095. No
questions will be asked
ESCAPE gives student participants
upper level credit, marketable skills
“it's like the poster says,"
said deShaunna Blankinship.
ESCAPE Field Services direc
tor "The program will broaden
students' base experiences and
at the same time gain them
backround in a working com
munity."
Founded in 1969, Every
Student Caring About Person
alized Education has enrolled
nearly 20,000 students par
ticipating as volunteers in the
Eugene-Springfield area
Volunteers can earn
academic credit for their work
through the education school or
planning, public policy and
management department
(which took the place of the
Wallace School of Community
Service and Public Affairs).
ESCAPE gives students the
chance to discover and inves
tigate career choices in the
"real world," while receiving
upper-division credit
"The program really can give
the student the chance to en
hance their education and make
themselves more marketable in
the career world while at the
same time gives them a chance
to work in a less structured at
mosphere," Blankinship said
The program is divided into
two branches: public schools
and community services
Volunteers work in the 40 to
50 public schools in the
Eugene-Springfield area In the
community, volunteers work in
such areas as friendship with
the elderly, special education,
daycare and after-school pro
grams in community schools
"I went back over the records
from the last couple of years,
and we seem to be on the right
track," she added
Blankinship predicts about
300 students will get involved
with ESCAPE this term
Students can register for ES
CAPE classes until Friday in
EMU Room 327
l
ASUO posts filled, one still open
Two of the three vacant positions in the
ASUO state and academic affairs office have
been filled
Ed Razor, a business and music senior, was
selected director of state affairs and Mark
Cleveland, an undeclared sophomore, was
appointed director of University and academic
affairs, said Debi Lance, ASUO vice president
of state and academic affairs
The administrative assistant position
remains unfilled, she said
Razor was chosen because of his exper
ience and because he made an effort to know
the legislature. Lance said Razor was a
student body president at Pasadena City Col
lege
Cleveland was appointed because of his
experience with the Resident Hall Governance
Committee and the Interfraternity Council.
Lance said He is also familiar with the Univer
sity's community outreach program which the
office wants to become involved In. she said
