1966 - Marathon marches for orphan children: Makes 54 years old innkeeper Mr. Rudolf Reese from Hanover. Up to now he has walked about 448, 000 miles inorder to collect addresses of orphan children, that he distributes to people in Germany, who want to have a godchild. Probably I will fall on my march one day, and therefore I want to young people to continue my action, says Reese. Uncle Rudi, so the children call him, already has new big plans. His next march will lead him through the north of Europe to Russia and back to West-Germany again. In 1968 Rudolf Reese intends to visit the olympiade in Mexico City and to take part in the 80 miles-walking with a knapsack full of addresses. Photo shows Mr. Rudolf Reese in his inn
