East Germans Regents given freedom dinSM :hinei! it ani in tbi United Press International BERLIN — The East Ger man government allowed six East Germans who sought freedom in the West to leave the U.S. Embassy in East Ber lin Sunday and cross the bor der into West Berlin, a West German government spokes man said. The four men and a married couple entered the U.S. Embassy Friday and vowed to go on a hunger strike until the East German regime allowed them to go to the West. The six East Germans, be tween the ages of 19 and 43, left the embassy near Unter den Linden in three auto mobiles and drove through a checkpoint in the Berlin wall to West Berlin, witnesses said. It was not clear if the six were insisting on emigration to the United States or would re main in West Germany. An American spokesman said the six East Germans left the embassy after the embassy re ceived an assurance they would not be arrested and could go to the West. They were accompanied on their trip to West Berlin by Hans Otto Braeutigam, bead of the West German mission to East Germany, and Wolf gang Vogel, an East German lawyer who for years has been involved in the “sale” of East German political prison ers to West Germany. His presence led to specula tion that the West German government had paid a large sum of money to get the East German government to allow them to leave. Last year West Germany bought freedom for 1,034 political prisoners. In the last 20 years it is estimated West Germany has paid $364 mil lion for a total of 20,236 poli tical prisoners. American officials had held delicate negotiations with East Germany’s communist regime on the East Germans’ request for permission to emigrate. U.S. Ambassador Rozanne Ridgway returned to East Germany Saturday from the United States, but it was not known if she was personally involved in the sensitive di plomatic maneuvers. Diplomatic sources said East Germany had feared that allowing the six to emigrate might encourage some 500,000 East German citizens, who have applied to leave the country legally, to take similar steps. The East German media did not mention the case, but East Germans were aware of it as West German television broadcasts are received throughout the country. The six, in a letter to Presi dent Reagan given to U.S. officials when they entered the embassy Friday, asked for protection from arrest. They had asked for asylum in the embassy. But, Rosinus said, “Under international law and by American prac tice, the United States does not grant asylum in embas sies.” A group spokesman said two of the men were sons of offi cials of East German secret police officials. The West German newspaper Welt am Sonntag identified them as Bernd Macke, 28, expelled from art school for applying to emigrate, and Joerg He- jkal, 23. It said Hejkal served 22 months in prison for trying to flee to the West through Yugoslavia, and another group member, Bernd Apel, 43, spent 18 months in prison for the same offense. The others were identified as Daniel and Petra Klingberg, a married couple from Pots dam, and Rene Faccin, 19, who was born in East Ger many but has an Italian father and an Italian pass port. : waiei ise ofi 'gy."k soffito e P a l ound: g else i it is a! ie nep Thesi 50 tolfl loubfc Kodat : all si« which 8 »ecialop Mothers unite for support United Press International BEVERLY, Mass.— The first day Laura Sampson spent alone with her newborn son was so fraught with unex pected loneliness the anguished mother was re duced to tears. With no role models to offer guidance and nothing in her education and work experi ence to offer solace, Samp son’s rosy vision of an easy transition from career woman to motherhood was shattered.

The decision, to return to work and leave an infant in the care of another or to tend to the baby and learn to enjoy it, is up to the individual, but the choice is eased by a posi tive support group anxious to give the newcomer encour agement. “This is uncharted territory,” Klein said. “Whether we re turn to work full or part- time, or wait, there are no real models on how to inte grate our self-concept as a working woman and as a mother. We’re struggling with problems our mothers never faced.” All of the group participants, including Klein, postponed their first child until career, personal and financial prob lems were resolved. Delighted with the prospect of the baby they were finally able to have, each hoped to be a full-time mother, returning to work when their child was sufficiently grown. None anticipated the sense of isolation and feelings of in adequacy accompanying their child’s arrival. “I’ll never forget that first day alone with Joshua,” said Sampson. “I kept thinking, ‘What am I going to do?’ “There was no one to talk with who could understand my negative feelings,” she said, “and I had a tremendous need to relate to other peo ple. I felt like screaming.” It was only when Sampson was referred to the support group that she was able to evaluate her problem and de cide to return to her position as a research dietician when her baby was four months old. Once the anguish dissipated in the relaxed atmosphere of the evening get-togethers, Sampson, with her husband’s support, was able to find a competent sitter. Sampson is confident Joshua, now 13 months old, is getting excellent care with a doting sitter, and loving parents who appreciate and make the most of their time with him. k, MJ; nacoo* 1 itha v a cooi 1 and SQUARE DANCING with Dan Nordbye Caller lab member from Omaha, Nebraska One of the best callers in the USA- Monday, January 23 7:30 to 10:30 pm First Presbyterian Church-Bryan Fellowship Hall 1110 Carter Creek Pkwy.

Pizza inn l (continued from page 1) Two members of the Corps then spoke on behalf of the en dowment, both saying that if it had not been for the program, neither may have been able to remain at the University. Richardson then pledged to Burton that the Corps would get more scholarships and pledged to donate one himself. Another regent then pledged one, after which a pledge was announced on Board Chairman H.R. “Bum” Bright’s behalf. Wisen- baker then spoke up and said, “If Bright can afford one, so can I.” The committee approved sev eral appropriations including an aphe Freeman Arena on High way 2818. The committee approved a $81 1,500 project to renovate the arena. During the presentation of the renovation, architect Mof- fatt Adams joked asking, “Why does it cost $800,000 to put a tin roof on a horse pin?” But he ex plained that a lot of work had to be done. Regent William A. McKenzie then asked, “So all we have there now is a bunch of junk?” Adams responded by saying that the present facility is hard to maintain. Appropriations for prelimin ary design for a new engineer ing building to house portions of the civil engineering depart ment, the engineering design graphics department and the Texas Transportation Institute were examined. Questions were raised about a $1 million appropriation for furnishings for TTI. The $1 million was quoted as the cost of additional furniture for the institute. Some of the furniture at the present offices will be transferred to the new facility with the rest going to University surplus. Bright questioned the figure and said the furniture had been itemized in the cost esti mates. The committee, also approved an appropriation of $58,000 for work on an asbestos roof in the Civil Engineering Building. The roof, which was believed to be made of gypsum board, was found to be asbestos during renovations of the build ing. The Environmental Protec tion Agency prohibits the use of asbestos in the construction of educational facilities. The mate rial was supposedly used during a reroofing job on the building in the 1960s. The appropriation would be used for the purchase and use of a spray-on material that would coat the asbestos fibers so that they will not pose a health problem. The committee also approved appropriations for the preliminary design for the Engineering Building, the Phy siology Research and Condition ing Laboratory and for detailed design for the Physical Educa tion and Intramural Facilities at Tarleton State University.
