On Campus: Owners seek lost puppets used by the UW-Madison Javanese music ensemble

Hereâ??s a campus mystery: Four puppets used by the UW-Madison Javanese musical ensemble disappeared at the end of July and havenâ??t been seen since.

They may not have been worth much money, but are of great sentimental value to the owners, Sakti and Steve Laronga.

“For us, those are one of the very valuable things we have,” said Sakti Laronga, who is affiliated with the universityâ??s Javanese ensemble.
