Romanian

Associated Press
HOUSTON — A Romanian sea
man who was granted political asy
lum Thursday said he hopes his wife
and two children can be brought to
the United States so they can live
and work an honest life.
Paul Firica, 44, said through a
translator that he is very happy be
cause he has dreamed for years of
defecting to the United States.

“He wants to thank the American
people and the immigration service
for allowing him to stay in this coun
try,” said translator Bego Memet of
Spring, also a Romanian defector.
“He says he will be much happier
when he is reunited with his family
here, where they will have a chance
to live and work an honest life.”
Paul O’Neill, district director of
the Immigration and Naturalization
Service in Houston, said he decided
to award political asylum to Firica
because the seaman has a justifiable
reason for wanting to stay in this
country. However, O’Neill declined
to elaborate.
Club helps foreign students
meet others, adapt to A&M
Firica said Thursday at a news
conference in Houston that he
planned to move to Austin to stay
with Rev. Tom Wilson, who has been
involved with the movement to
spread the word of the Bible in Ro
mania.
The seaman said earlier that he
waited to defect until his wife and
two daughters, ages 17 and 23, were
able to live without his support.
“With the help of God, they’ll mana
ge,” he said with teary eyes.
Firica walked off the Romanian
vessel Zalau Tuesday night. The
ship, loaded with cattle hides, left for
Romania Wednesday night.
Firica’s asylum is good for one
year, O’Neill said. At end of every
year the application must be re
viewed.
“Ultimately, he can apply for per
manent resident status,” O’Neill
said.

Students who come to Texas
A&M from all over the world have a
little help trying to fit in at the Uni
versity. They can get together to
speak their native language and
meet other international students
every Wednesday night at the Eu
rope Club meetings.
“We have members from all dif
ferent countries in the club,” says
Dan Wegener, vice president of the
club.
Wegener is an American but has
lived and traveled extensively in Eu
rope, and he says that joining the
group was a logical choice for him.
The members come from all
around the globe — Spain, Austria,
Italy, Scotland and France, as well as
Canada, Russia, Czechoslovakia and
many South American countries.
“We have a real interesting
crowd,” Wegener says. He says the
Europe Club is an organization for
international students who don’t
know much about the United States.
They can meet people who can help
make the transition a little easier.
Wegener says the club is a support
group, helping students with the
problems that arise when someone
lives in a different country. This in
cludes problems with transportation
ing the holidays.
Many of the new members don’t
know about the community and
what it offers, Wegener says, and the
club is full of people willing to help
out.

The Europe Club has existed
