A last bit of summer
Wednesday’s winds were put to an en
joyable use by George Krejci in the Post
Oak Mall parking lot. Krejci, a sopho
more mechanical engineering student
from Plano, prefers wind-surfing (on
water) to wind-skating, but he said this
was good practice — and good fun.

Hostage back home,
ready to work again
United Press International
HOUSTON — Renaldo Fran-
ceschi says his more than five
months as a captive of the Kur
dish rebels in Iraq left him with a
longing for Chinese food, but no
need for a vacation.
Franceschi, a contracts mana
ger in the Houston office of Cal
gary-based Atco Lad., was
reunited with his wife and two
daughters Wednesday at Inter
continental Airport. He said he
was ready to return to work
Monday.
“I don’t need a vacation,”
Franceschi, 40, said about his
company’s urging that he take
som time off. “I feel very well. I
was treated very well. I just
didn’t like their food.”
“He’s a very strong person,”
Atco spokesman Richard
Strachan said. “He told the pres
ident of the company he wanted
to go to work Monday.” The
president of the companv urged
him to take some time off.
His wife Millie teased, “He’s a
ham. He’s loving this.” Frances
chi told reporters one of the first
things he wanted was Chinese
food.
The Puerto Rican-born ex
ecutive, who normally carries
I5l pounds on his 5-7 frame,
lost 25 pounds during his cap
tivity.
“He looks thin," Mrs. Fran
ceschi said. “But he looks better
than I expected. Give us a cou
ple of months and we’ll have him
fattened up.”
Franceschi asked, “Are you
happy to see Papito?” as he
embraced his wife and his two
daughters, Casandra, 11. and
Tatiana, 9, after stepping off the
plane from Calgary.
“It was their decision^
Strachan said of the family's de
termination to await i t.inciy
chi’s return at their home |a
Katy, near Houston.

employee, Guy Boisvert, 23

al. Boisvert was released Sejn)
Franceschi was released two
weeks ago with the help of the
Iranian and Swiss governments,
but Strachan said the family, on
advice from the State Depart
ment and other hostages' fami
lies, chose to wait at home for
him to arrive.
Atco had inquired at the State
Department on its experience
with the stress of the Iranian
hostages w ho were suddenly re
turned home, and the hostages’
families themselves gave Mrs.
Franceschi support, she said.
