Austrian Former Exchange
Student Contacts College
An Austrian university
student who once was an ex-change
student in Hershey
has shown he has not forgot-ten
his friends here.
Recently the German Class
of Hershey Junior College re-ceived
a communication from
the former exchange student,
Achim Roggla, who enclosed
clippings from a Vienna
newspaper. The German-language
news stories told of
the Hungarian freedom move-ment,
just across the border
from Roggla's own country.
In an accompanying letter,
Roggla pointed out:
"The Hungarian border,
which is patrolled and closed
by Russian tanks, is only 40
miles from Vienna. Many Jr. Rudolf Sturm.
Austrians think of a possible
occupation" of the former
Russian zone of Austria by
Russian armies."
Rogla wrote: "Maybe some
of you still remember me. In
1951/52 I lived in Hershey as
an exchange student with the
(Prof Henry K.) Eby family.
I was. a Senior at Hershey
High and a parttime student
of the Junior College. I took
calculus classes with Profes-sor
(John) Lanz, to whom I
send my best regards."
The newspaper clippings
were used in class for read-ing
and discussion material
by the students of the Her-shey
Junior College German
class under the direction of
