Source of suspect package
remains a mystery
The FBI is still investigating the
origin of a suspicious package sent
to Bernd Crasemann, professor
emeritus of physics, in November,
but according to FBI spokesperson
Beth Anne Steele, there have been
no new developments in the case
since the letter tested negative for
anthrax and other toxic agents.
Crasemann and his assistant
opened the package, which he said
was postmarked from Malaysia, in his
Willamette Hall office at about 9 a.m.
Nov. 15. The package contained a
powdery substance and a letter with
writing in both English and a lan
guage Crasemann didn’t recognize.
Crasemann reported the letter to
the Department of Public Safety,
who called in the Eugene Police
Department. EPD closed the build
ing’s ventilation system and called
the FBI and a hazardous materials •
response team to decontaminate
the office.
The Oregon State Public Health
Laboratory in Portland conducted
tests on the substance and within a
few days announced that it was free
of anthrax.

Rogers said. He said judges look for
amplitude [how high a rider goes),
landing quality, rotation, board grabs
and the overall impression of a partic
ular run.
Though the team will compete to
gether, this contest allows only a sin
gle winner, Rogers said. The prizes
for winning the invitational include
CDs, lift tickets and other snow
board-related items, Rogers said.
“Anybody on campus (with) any
skill level can compete (in either
competition),” Fabricant said. “We
want to encourage as many people
to participate as possible.”

The registration fee is $10 to en
ter either contest, and $20 for a dis
counted lift ticket. Spectators pay
$32 for a lift ticket, Rogers said.
On Feb. 23, the team’s first year of
competition will continue with the
third annual Windells Timberline
Pro Am Classic Series at Mt. Hood’s
Timberline Lodge.
The next day, the team will trek
to Mt. Hood Meadows for the “Ja
maican Days” competition.
Many of the members on the team
are familiar with the sport but have
never competed before, Fabricant said.
“There’s a big range in ability lev
el,” Fabricant said. “We really want
to encourage all those (nonexperi
enced) people, because in three
years they could become one of our
top competitors. The club is an in
cubation opportunity for the team.”
Price said there’s a hierarchy of
competitions for those seeking to be
national champions.
“It’s just like any other collegiate
athletic,” Price said. “You start at
regionals, which are usually held
in Washington, and you move up
from there.”
Price and Fabricant both agreed
the snowboard team isn’t ready to
tackle national competition.
“It’s a goal,” Fabricant said.
“That’s what we’re building toward.
Maybe next year. ”
