(Advertisement ) | Discovered The Real Me! By R. A. VINCI M* anxiety mounted and my /Y4 pace quickened rapidly as I ran all the way to catch the 8:15. As I luckily occupied the last avail- able seat, I noticed a book left there by a previous passenger. Quite ‘absent-mindedly I ran through the first few lines; a mo- ment later I was excitedly engross- ed in its entire contents, eagerly discovering clues which led to a life long treasure. I learned that most people never realize they live at only half their potential capacity and that an ordinary person could systematically remember every- thing he wanted to. Realizing the immense scope of that statement — what it might accomplish in the way of a business and social asset, I decided to test its truth. I withdrew from my briefcase the sales report of our company and began reading in the manner pre- scribed. The long list of complex statistics seemed an overwhelming challenge. After reading it over a few times I observed that I could recite them with hardly a mistake. I was astonished at the memory I had acquired and began reflecting how this new control I was achiev- ing would materially help me to greater success in life. After this, I applied myself to mastering the simple technique of this memory system and each day I became more confident as I applied the things I learned. Along with this remark- able development came new self- assurance and greater stature. In short, I became more popular. Within a week everyone was taking notice of my new personality. Needless to say, my wife soon adopted the same program apply- ing the technique to her civic and social activities. Complicated data, passages from books, etc. could be quoted -with ease. My memory had become a trusted servant, adept for any purpose or occasion by record- ing all information I chose to re- member. If I have obtained from life a measure of wealth and happiness it is to that book I owe it, for it re- vealed to me the most important asset for success in life. A free copy of this book is avail- able to all who wish to develop their memory by writing to the author, Dr. Bruno Furst, c/o Memory Studies, 835 Diversey Pkwy., Dept. 3182, Chicago 14, Ill. This little book “Adventures in Memory” will be sent to you postage prepaid with- out cost or obligation.

VY ) Y See by the lf ; a {pers <a QUOTE OF THE MONTH A traveler in a southern country was questioned by its residents about the wonders of his native land. He mentioned casually that in his own northern homeland the water sometimes became so hard that people could walk on it. W here- upon the league of astrologers and alchemists in this southern country drew up a resolution that such a thing was impossible because it did not accord with science. Finally the traveler was forced to flee for his life. —Curtius of Hadecan TIME OF WONDERS N THE TIMES of our author’s quote, written history as we understand it was unknown. There were chronicles, but they were most- ly lists of natural (and unnatural) wonders. Rains of blood, earth- quakes, rocks from the sky, sea serpents, plagues, all these were great and fearsome marvels which were not understood and the chron- iclers seldom bothered even to hint about how life itself was lived in their times. Today, of course, nearly all of our history is centered about man and few record the wonders. But, we do; this is our business. We try to add a few more details than the ancient chroniclers did — such as who made the report, when it happened, where it happened, and talk a lot about what as well. Even so we sometimes feel we are engaged in a sort of anachronistic business except that it is just plain fun to winnow out all these modern wonders and report them at a time when most people no longer honestly believe that wonders still exist. They do! oo) FOR INSTANCE EMS NEVES was standing beside her midget car in Lon-

8 don, England, one day early this past fall when a huge chunk of ice came hurtling out of the air and crashed through the car’s roof. Air authorities said the ice could not have come either from a war- plane or an airliner. Householders near the scene said their refrigera- tors made nothing larger than ice cubes. No explanation! Nobody even could tell Mrs. Neves who was going to pay for the damage. She had a pretty good idea, though. And things keep falling. Last April, a collection of metal junk came hurtling out of a clear sky along Ventura Boulevard in Sher- man Oaks, Calif. The pieces dam- aged a neon sign, broke two store windows, narrowly missed a sales person, pockmarked the roof of a parked car. It should have been easy to identify the source of this metal; it resembled the broken remnants of an auto clutch, brake drum or: fly wheel and was clearly odds and ends of some kind of machinery. Police suggested it might have come from an airplane. As far as we know, no airplane ever claimed it. oe) FLAMING DIAPERS as OCTOBER 19, Mrs. Jack Roll of 1160 E. Riverside Drive, Evansville, Ind., hung her FATE washing on the line in her back- yard. Included in the washing were a number of diapers for her grand- daughter, Tracy Roll, age six months. It was drizzling most of the day, and when Mrs. Roll went out to bring in the clothing she discovered the diapers were missing — or most- ly missing. Eight of them had burned up, leaving only charred scraps cling- ing to the clothes line. No one saw it happen; no electric wires were down; there was no lightning. It is possible, of course, that someone entered the yard, de- spite the two dogs who roamed it, and lighted the diapers. But why the diapers and no other clothing? And how could they burn anyway, in the rain? oO AN EAR FOR MUSIC a IS A corny story — but it’s true. Last summer, George E. Smith, an agronomist for a St. Louis, Mo., seed company, made an experiment on a field of corn near Blooming- ton, Ill. —he played music to it. First, Smith planted two plots of corn under identical physical con- ditions. Then he played music to one of the plots —strains of class- ics, marches, love songs. The other plot got no special treatment. The plot that listened to the

He put thermometers in the ground and found that the soil on the musical plot was two degrees warmer than on the other plot. The corn exposed to music came up 12 hours earlier. It was three days ahead in silking. During pollination time Smith played love songs. He claims that “the process was boosted a great deal.” : CO UNKNOWN MEN ITH THE WORLD as well explored as it is, unknown animals seldom turn up any more. There are a good many people who doubt that a large unknown type of animal could still exist, despite the fact that a new kind still is found every now and then. We were interested to learn re- cently about a group of people who live in the jungle of Northern Thai- land. They are the Pi Tong Luang. Despite the fact that. this race is quite numerous in Northern Thai- land, no white man ever was able to set eyes on them until about 25 years ago. Now the Pi Tong Luang are not a new species, of course. All living men belong to the same species, Homo sapiens, which is the sole surviving species of the genus

I SEE BY THE PAPERS I! Trace of a gigantic animal hitherto unknown to science was photographed 9,700 feet down on floor of Indian Ocean by scientists aboard the Soviet research ship Vilyaz. Homo, and all living races can in- termate. The amazing thing is that ” people as numerous as these were simply unknown until a few years ago. The Pi Tong Luang have special interest for physical anthropolo- gists. They are a handsome people, obviously related to the Mongoloid branch of man. Yet the Mongol eyelid fold is missing, suggesting that the fold is a late acquisition of the Mongolian race. The lips are thick, the nose and teeth large and regular. The skulls of the men have heavy orbital ridges and sharp- ly receding foreheads, resembling those of the Australian aborigines. The women are childlike in looks and rather pretty. Yet these are primitive people. They possess no weapons. They talk little and then in monosyl- lables. They have few words in their vocabulary. They live in small family groups, wandering through the forests, avoiding other men, skirting waterholes, trying to stay alive. Yet they are mysteri- ously there, preserving their ident- ity and individuality, thousands of them. CO ONE HOAX AFTER ANOTHER AST ISSUES of this column have reported the hoax of Pilt- down Man. Several pieces of a cranium and most of half a lower jaw of a sub-human were allegedly found in a gravel pit in the south of England by a man named Daw- son in 1911.

Everyone accepted the find as genuine. Then in 1953 investigations made - in the Departments of Anatomy at Oxford and of Geology at the Brit- ish Museum seemed to prove that the lower jaw was a fake — that it was really made from the jaw of a modern chimpanzee, colored with chemicals, abraded and the teeth filed to match a human pattern. Everywhere Piltdown Man was con- sidered to be a fake. Now Ivan T. Sanderson, author and zoologist, has just written a book called Abominable Snowmen: Legend Come to Life in which he says that the alleged fake is much more complicated than that and even the explanation is a phony. First of all, the pieces of the cranium apparently did not come from the Piltdown gravels, where Dawson claimed he found them, but from the Red Crag Beds of East Anglia and actually are a mil- lion years older that even Dawson dared claim. Secondly, the alleged chimpanzee jaw bone is not from a chimpanzee after all; it conforms in some fea- tures with extinct apes. Fur- thermore, Dr. Alvan Marston, a dental surgeon and trained anthro- pologist, who studied the jawbone

I SEE BY THE PAPERS and read a paper to the Royal Society of Medicine in London, de- clares that neither the canine nor the molar teeth were ever ground down “much less by Mr. Dawson (discoverer of the Piltdown skull) who knew nothing of dentistry.” And so, despite the learned ex- posure by the Oxford anatomists and the British Museum geolo- gists, neither the skull nor the jaw- bone are fakes. But let Mr. Sander- son go on: “Thus, both the Piltdown crani- um and jaw are extremely ancient. However, it does seem to be true 13 that they don’t belong together and that they were never deposited at Piltdown, but probably were transported there by Mr. Dawson along with some phony bone tools and a few odd bones. The gravel beds in which they were said to have been found have been extens- ively dug and sifted and not so much as one bone of anything has ever been found in them.” Mr. Sanderson has discussed the matter in so much detail to show that even the experts are fallible, and so are the much wanted dating techniques so widely acclaimed.

Hee ASTROLOGERS agree with George Cardinal Le Gros’ article in last month’s issue of Fate: the month of February, 1962, could be a trying and dis- astrous month. When eight planets show up in Capricorn, bad things can happen. And Astrologers Jaganath and B. V. Raman predict the disaster peri- od will begin February 2 and reach full fury on February 5. They say that India and the southeast Asian countries will be less affected and maybe the rest of the world ought to turn to India for advice and pro- tection. The troubles will begin on Febru- ary 2 when there will be major dis- turbances in the sea and sky, pos- sibly but not necessarily due to an atomic blast. During the rest of February there will be... @ Local wars in the Mediterran- ean. ® Earthquakes in Arabia, Afghani- stan, Turkey and Pakistan. @ Trouble for President Gamal Ab- dul Nasser of the United Arab Re- public, who has both the sun and the moon in Capricorn, according to Jaganath.

Just before he quit the events described here took place. At 4:00 A.M. on Sunday, Sep- tember 24, Clarke was making his rounds in the huge old castle. “There was just the sound of my own footsteps as I came down the stairs,” he told Denne Petitclerc of the Chronicle. “Then I turned the corner to my left —it was kind of dark and there he was grinning at me.” “He” was a little man with a pale face — “he looked like a powder puff— with pure white hair. He wore dark trousers and a white coat and he carried something shiny in his hand that looked like a flash- light — but I couldn’t see exactly what is was.” The two figures confronted each other, motionless. Then the little man gave a cry midway between a sob and a laugh. Clarke yelled at him and gave chase but the little man outdistanced him. At 2:00 A.M. the next morning, Clarke was walking up the stairs in the front of the building — and there was the little man, standing on the staircase, laughing. This time he wore tennis shoes. Again he outran the ex-Marine and disappeared in the musty depths of the building. Clarke called the police and two officers

22 ransacked the structure. They found nothing. Meanwhile the prowler entered the office, poured Clarke’s thermos jug of coffee down the sink and took his cigarettes. The final visit, as far as our rec- ords go, came early on Friday, September 29. “I heard him laugh- ing and looked up, and there he was again — grinning at me on the staircase.” Clarke hurled his nightstick at the figure (it was his only weapon) and took after the intruder, who “ran like a deer.” This time a posse of 20 officers under Lieut. Robert McKiernen of Richmond Station searched the building. It must have been a mad search. They could hear the prowler whis- tling but they couldn’t tell where the sound came from. Clarke felt the whistle taunted them, or was “call- ing us like dogs.” The building resounded like an echo chamber but no one could find the man, though in one dark base- ment area officers say they saw muddy footprints. Clarke asked to be relieved of his assignment. “If I had 10 men I don’t think I’d go back in that place at night,” he said. “I’ve had it. You can’t tell what a nut like that will do—I haven’t slept in three days.” Do you suppose the little man is mortal? FATE BALL LIGHTNING ECENTLY THIS column men- tioned that little is known about ball lightning and that we ought to do some research on it. Apparently the Russians have anticipated us. Donald J. Ritchie of the Bendix Corporation has just edited a collection of seven Soviet scientific papers on ball lightning. It seems the Soviets have a pro- gram aimed at a complete under- standing of the phenomenon, its controlled reproduction, and its practical application, including its possible use in production of therm- onuclear power. io) AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LAKES T HAS BEEN commonly ‘be- lieved, without much thought, that the glaciers were responsible for scouring out- the beds of the Great Lakes, despite the fact that their bottoms are often deeper than sea level. Apparently this is not so. Uni- versity of Michigan and University of Minnesota geologists spent the summer drilling in the floor of Lake Superior. They found an extreme- ly deep bedrock river valley that must have existed before the old glacial deposits were laid down. Meanwhile the research schooner Vema of Lamont Geological Obser- vatory of Columbia University con- ducted a study of the floor of the

Lat I SEE BY THE PAPERS REUNION HE LAST TIME Mrs. Luberta Collins, 34, of Ann Arbor, Mich., had seen her mother was in central Alabama when she was two. Her mother, Mrs. James Billups, had left her father and moved to a nearby town in central Alabama. She left Luberta with a relative and went on a short trip. When she returned, Mrs. Billups found that her ex-husband had come, told the relative the couple was reconciled, and had taken the child away. She was never able to find Luberta. Meanwhile Luberta’s father left her with one of his own relatives and then was killed in an industrial accident. Luberta was told she was an orphan. She grew up, married, and moved to Michigan. One day early last spring, Lu- berta Collins asked if she could join an older woman at the table in St. Joseph Hospital dining room, Ann Arbor. The older woman was Mrs. Eliza Mae Jackson, 49, who also was a hospital employee. They discovered they both had come from central Alabama and Luberta Col- lins said her maiden name was Bill- ups. Mrs. Jackson gripped her chair and asked Luberta hoarsely what her entire name was, and the name of her father, “Honey,” she said, bursting into tears, “I’m your mother.” — Curtis Fuller LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT!

MY FIRST UFO Us bs ay) Gings ‘) A glowing ball-shaped object over Indianapolis —witnessed by many other persons—provides a noted UFO researcher with his first sighting. OR 14 LONG YEARS I have watched the heavens in the - hope of seeing a so-called “flying- saucer”—known in the vernacular of the Air Force as an Unidenti- fied Flying Object. And I watched all those years in vain. I -was al- ways either too late there to see what others saw—or I wasn’t there at all. I have written hundreds of thousands of words about UFO’s— articles based on opinions, findings and experiences of others—but I have been unable to speak from personal experience— 27 Until the night of October 12, 1961, at 10 minutes after 8:00 P.M. when I hit the jackpot. We had just finished taping my nightly hour-long television pro- gram and I was hurrying from the studio in south Indianapolis to an appointment on the other side of the city. As I walked from the studio door northward toward the parking lot I glanced up into the sky, from force of habit rather than from any expectation. But there it was! Somewhere between me and the
Page 28
28 famed Monument Circle in down- town Indianapolis, three miles away, a huge, glowing, silvery, ball- shaped object hung motionless in the air. It was reasonably well lighted by the glow from the busi- ness district. A bright green light, unblinking, glowed from the top of the sphere; on the bottom, two or more very small red lights blinked rapidly. If my guess as to the lo- cation of the object is correct, it was somewhere between 100 and 150 feet in diameter. In the re- flection from the city lights it looked like brushed aluminum. Perhaps 15 or 20 seconds after I first saw it the object began to move. It went into a tight climbing spiral, rolling from side to side as it climbed. When it rolled its spherical shape was unmistakable from my viewpoint. There seemed to be a belt (or rim) around the middle of the thing but I was too far away to discern any detail. After its climb to a point perhaps 10 diameters above where I first spotted it, the object stopped dead still again for another 10 or 15 seconds. Then without warning, it jumped from a standstill to a speed of several hundred miles per hour, streaking to the south and out of sight in a few seconds. Alto- gether I watched it less than a full minute. Had anyone else seen it? Tran back to the television sta- FATE tion lobby and told the reception- ist to make careful notes of any calls relative to an unusual ob- ject in the sky. By that time the entire switchboard was lit up with incoming calls. But since I was already late for my cross- town appointment I had to leave without taking any of the calls myself. The police, the sheriff and the municipal airport also were swamped with calls. One of the other television stations put on a news “flash” in which they “ex- plained” that the object visible over. the city was nothing more than a small plane towing an ad- vertising banner for a local chain grocery! This also was the line given out by the night officer at the State Police barracks in West Indianapolis. We will come back to this “ex- planation” but, first, let’s exam- ine the reports of those who did see the object. The State Police officer’ did not see it. Among those who called me were the members of a train crew, of the Indianapolis Belt Railroad. Their train had been moving west- ward into the city a few minutes before 8:00 when the fireman on the diesel locomotive, Jerry Carter, noticed a strange glowing object in the sky south of the railroad but proceeding parallel to the train. Engineer Nolan S$. Garman watch-

Around middle was a band or rim, thought by some observers to be brightly-lighted port holes. ed the thing, too, as did the two brakemen at the other end of the train. On my television show a couple of nights later Garman and Carter described the thing as huge, glow- ing faintly, silvery—with what they thought was a ring of portholes or other lighted openings around its center. Their description tallied closely with my own, except that I had not been near enough to distinguish the ring of “portholes” they described. The train crew estimated that 29 they had the thing in sight for per- haps 15 minutes altogether, be- fore it zipped away out of sight to the south. I wondered if anyone had re- ported seeing the thing from be- neath, as it swung over the busi- ness district. Scanning my calls I found one from the Stark and Wetzel meat packing company plant, which is southwest of the business district proper. Two plant guards, Bud Kaesel and Walter Jamison, were among six persons there who had seen the thing as it passed almost directly overhead. They got no lateral view of the object because of the buildings around them, but as it passed overhead they agreed that it was a magnificent and start- ling spectacle—a circular, shiny, glowing object that was rotating clockwise, with rapidly blinking red lights in the bottom center. Since they were looking upward at the object of course they could not have seen the upper half of the sphere, so their unanimous descrip- tion of it as circular is not at vari- ance with other reports. , This was Kaesel’s second UFO sighting. He saw and reported his first one five years ago—a glowing, orange disc that moved swiftly and silently across the city in the early morning hours. The Stark and Wetzel witnesses agree that the object they watched
Page 30
30 changed color—white to bright to dim. Of the scores of reports I re- ceived both by phone and by mail in the days following the sighting at Indianapolis two stand out. An acquaintance of mine, Mrs. Doris Jolliffe, and a friend of hers, Leo Welsh, were in Mr. Welsh’s car en route to an east side In- dianapolis church to attend choir practice. They estimated the time of their sighting to be about 25 minutes before 8:00 P.M. As their car waited for a traffic light to change Mrs. Jolliffe noticed. a strange object moving ‘slowly across the sky. While she kept it in sight Welsh drove across the in- tersection and parked at the curb. They scrambled out to get a good look at the thing which seemed to be hovering over the nearby Naval Ordnance plant where electronic missile components are made. Both of these- viewers told me later that the object was spherical, huge (100 or more feet in diameter), and not more than 1200 to 1500 feet above the city. They report watching it for several minutes during most of which time it was motionless. Both viewers are cer- tain the object had a band of brightly lighted windows around its center—square holes of some sort through which a brilliant white light faded and glowed at intervals of several seconds. When red— FATE Mrs. Jolliffe and Mr. Welsh reach- ed church at 7:55 P.M. they found several other persons there also had seen the object. The other outstanding report, which came to me asa result of the UFO seen on the night of October 12, 1961, actually deals with anoth- er sighting entirely—one which oc- curred on the preceding night. Dale Cordray, a trouble-shooter for the Indiana Bell Telephone Company, lives with his wife and two small daughters in a thinly settled area about a mile-and-a- half southwest of the Indianapolis municipal airport. On the night of October 11 one of his little girls was having a birthday party and there were about eight young- sters in the Cordray yard about dusk. Suddenly several of the chil- dren came rushing into the house clamoring that there was a ball of fire in the sky. Cordray and his wife ran out thinking it might be a plane in distress and they saw a disc-shaped object, faintly orange colored, with little flames licking around its rim, hovering over a nearby field. The object brighten- ed and shot away at low altitude to the southwest. A few moments later it returned to hover again over the field for more than a min- ute before it once again sped away and was lost in the gathering gloom of a smoky, Indian Summer eve- ning.

MY FIRST UFO A few nights later, on October 16, the Bicknell, Ind., Daily News reported that a lady there had seen a huge, silvery thing in the sky, “Similar to the one reported over Indianapolis last week.” Bicknell is about 100 miles southwest of In- dianapolis. And, now, what about the ex- planation? The airport control tower pro- fessed to see nothing, know nothing and declined to comment. Under their regulations they could do no more. The news services (services?) passed on the supposition from the State Police night telephone opera- tor, ‘It was a small plane carrying a lighted advertising sign for a local chain grocery.” A plane hovering? Impossible! A plane making a tight climbing turn, corkscrewing upward as the thing I watched did? Impossible! A plane, light or otherwise, that stopped in mid-air and then streak- ed away from a standing start? Malarkey! At least 100 persons saw the same thing I did on the night of iS October 12, 1961: A gigantic spher- ical craft unlike anything I have ever seen before—my first UFO. I hope I will see others! xk AUTHOR’S NOTE: Since writing athe above report I have learned that the incident had an interest- ing sequel. An Indianapolis company which leases a plane with flashing electric signs under its wings evidently saw an opportunity in this incident to secure a lot of free publicity. On the night following the sight- ing the operators of the plane flew it around over the city at an altitude of about 1500 feet for an hour. The electric sign under the wings flashed this message: “Here we are again, Frank.” The net result was—nothing. A check of the police, airport and newspapers revealed they re- ceived no single call from anyone reporting the object which was supposed to have been mistaken | for a UFO the night before and to have inspired so much misguid- ed excitement! Ww - WERE BOTH AT FAULT? WO CARS of the same make and color collided head-on outside Sundasvall, Sweden. Both drivers were thrown against their windshields and both were treated for scalp cuts. One driver was D. Gagner, 25. The other driver was F. Gagner, 25. They are iden- tical twins.

the woman who testified against her murderers ae by pS esEnONs HAVE occasionally influenced legal procedure and brought culprits to justice who might otherwise have escaped world- ly retribution. This is the story of such a testifying apparition. An English gentleman of almost three centuries ago hesitated before setting his quill pen to describing this apparition that was to bring justice to two murderers. .In fear of ridicule and even a charge of in- sanity he wrote, “I know it is a matter of very little credit to be a relator of stories and I have a par- ticular indisposition to the writing of such. People say that appari- tions are things ridiculous and in- credible, so to talk about them in- vokes rage and contempt. It is therefore a bold and adventurous thing in which I am about to en- gage.” He continued, thus preserving
Page 33
this event for history, “It was about the year of our Lord 1632 as near as I can remember that there lived near Chester (England) a man named Walker. He was a yeoman of good estate and a widower who had with him as housekeeper a young kinswoman named Esther.” Both of these persons apparently lived a secluded life, having few friends in the village, his story goes. A rough, sturdy fellow named Mark Sharp, known for his gruff manners, worked in the nearby coalpits. He was regarded with fear and suspicion, perhaps because of his grimy face and dirty clothes. He had a massive jaw and furtive eyes that seemed to retreat into the depths of their sockets, as our author described him. Another actor in this. strange low and so the gossips soon ceased their talk. Meanwhile, the hard-working miller, Graham, was working over- time, at the mill, sometimes until midnight. Although he worked alone in the mill he was usually fearless and unimaginative. Nevertheless, one night he was strangely nervous due to feeling he was not alone. Robbers and highwaymen were not unknown, so on entering the lower room of the mill he locked the heavy wooden door and shot the wooden crossbar into its sockets. This precaution failed to calm his tense nerves as he slowly mounted the ladder leading to the loft above although the only ventilation was provided by a hole in the wall, criss-crossed with heavy iron bars. No one could have entered. She overcame death to seek justice — and now the lone man saw her at the foot of the ladder he had to descend. story was Graham, the village mill- er. He was a man of sound char- acter, stolid and unimaginative, and trusted by his neighbors. Esther, Walker’s pretty young relative, had disappeared from the village about the same time that Mark Sharp the collier went away. This had caused some comment. But most persons believed the pretty Esther would have no con- nection with such an uncouth fel- 33 Despite his unease, Graham busied himself in the loft until mid- night. He then descended the lad- der carrying a small horn lantern whose feeble gleam showed the rungs of the ladder but barely pene- trated the gloom below. Suddenly he froze and strange quivers ran over his body; his lips moved in prayer. For close to the foot of the ladder stood the shadowy figure of a woman. Her hair was
Page 34
34 disheveled and her clothing jtorn. Her head was bloodied from several wounds. “Fave no fear,” the woman said. “T mean no harm to thee, but seek only for justice and revenge on my murderers.” In a low voice she continued, “My kinsman, named Walker, wearied of me and planned my end. After dusk he sent me away with a man, Mark Sharp, who was to guide me to a cottage. There, so Walker promised, I would live and be pro- vided for. On a lonely path across the moors Sharp turned on me as he drew a short coal pick from. under his coat. He struck viciously, but before death came I saw we were in a disused coal pit. There the murderér hid the pick, with his bloodied shoes and hose. I charge thee to tell the village magistrate my story. Go, search the pits and prove that I do not lie.” Confused and frightened the mill- er tossed all night. By dawn he had decided to keep silent. To tell of the apparition would bring laughter and ridicule. People would say he had been drinking! The village constable might lock him up as in- sane! Weeks passed and the miller found no peace of mind. He did not dare stay in his mill at night without company. But Esther’s wraith was not to be deterred. One evening after twi- FATE light as the miller walked in a secluded part of his garden, the shadowy form of Esther once more appeared and charged him, “Do not fail a second time.” The miller made up his mind to accept the lesser of two evils and told his story. To his great sur- prise, instead of reviling him as a liar and a coward, immediate search was made among the coal pits that honeycombed the moors. ‘There, just as the apparition had described, were found the pick, shoes and hose, not far from the body of the murdered woman. In court the case was not so simple. Walker, a man of education and eloquence, swore that Esther had left of her own freewill, that he never had dealings with Mark Sharp. Indeed, he said, he had not so much as spoken to the man. Sharp, too, flatly denied the ac- cusation. He stated that during a long walk in search of employ- ment he became weary so left his things in the pit intending to pick them up later. He could not, how- ever, find the place again. Sharp swore that there was no body in the pit when he hid his belongings there. The weakness in the case of the prosecution was that nobody had seen Esther and Sharp together. The judge adjourned the court until next day and retired that

THE WOMAN WHO TESTIFIED AGAINST HER MURDERERS 35 night sadly perplexed, especially with regard to the charge against Walker. During the night the judge suddenly awakened with the feel- ing that there was a strange pres- ence in the room. He hardly had the courage to part the curtains of his great fourposter bed. Peeking out fearfully he saw the - faintly luminous female figure that the miller Graham had described in court. The apparition spoke these few words, “Justice must be done. Both men are guilty.” Mark Sharp completely broke down when confronted with this further story of the apparition. His confession rang true, even to the implication of Walker who he said had paid him handsomely for the crime. The two were hanged on the same gallows. ae LUCKY LOSERS TTO LEWIS, a Maine lobster- man, lost his glasses; they fell overboard off Rockland, Me. Lucky Otto had his glasses back a few days later. A broth- er lobsterman found them in a lobster trap. Ray Hayes of Hopewell, Va., also lost his glasses, but Ray’s luck ran out at the last min- ute. Ray figured that he had dropped his glasses as he got into his car. So he circled the block. Spotting a police offi- cer, Ray stopped to ask if he’d seen anything of the missing specs. “Yes,” said the officer, “T have. They’re right there, crushed under your right front tire. I was just going to pick them up when you came along.” Bob Brazil of Clarksville, Ark., never went looking for his lost wallet, but he got it back just the same. He was driving near Horsehead Lake when he spotted his wallet at the side of the road. It had been lost two years before when his boat capsized on the lake. It still held the $19 that was in it when it was lost. Margaret Lowery had similar luck with the engagement ring she packed in a box of tea bags in Scotland. She married and emigrated to Boston. There a letter reached her from a Chi- cago tea company. Her ring was enclosed. Mrs. Ernest C. Lochner, Mil- waukee, Wis., lost her ring, too, a wedding band. The ring was lost in 1916, and found in 1948 on the lawn of a home the Lochners once owned. ut

| ESP AND THE Long search yielded no trace of little Jimmy. Could famed “sensitives” provide a clue to his fate? N MARCH 22, 1961, little Jimmy Franck, age 18 months, was tagging along as his father tended to afternoon chores in their farmyard near Winthrop, Towa. It was a raw day with an overcast sky, but there was a hint of spring in the air. The boy was bundled up in a parka and wore mittens and overshoes, but the fa- ther noticed that he was cold and suggested that he gointo the house, some 40 feet away. Jimmy started in the direction of the back porch, presumably to go inside. The fa- ther went into the barn and con- tinued his chores. This, was short- ly after 2:00 o’clock. At approximately 5:00 o’clock when farmer Everett Franck came into the house and inquired about Jimmy, his wife exclaimed, “I thought he was with you.” Then the search began. Some- where along the short distance be- tween farm yard and home some- thing had happened to the boy. The parents, together with their three other children, scoured the surroundings, searched the barns, called hopefully, then frantically, for the missing child. It was get- ting dark. There was the feel of snow in the air. By 9:00 o’clock neighbors and the police of nearby Independence had joined the search. Farmers and townspeople probed the dark- ening fields with flashlights and beamed headlights of cars into the ‘ditches along the dirt road that runs past the small, frame five- room home of the Franck family. At 10:00 o’clock a snowstorm struck the area and when morning came highways were blocked and the farmyard lay locked in drifts of whirling snow. Mrs. Franck, a Sunday School teacher in Winthrop’s Methodist Church, looked out across the bleak acres with all the faith she could command. She saw her hus- 36 band frantically continue the search which had battled the ele- ments all through the night. She watched neighbors come on foot and with tractors, and she sprang
Page 37
MISSING FARM BOY to the telephone whenever it rang, hoping now that Jimmy might have been picked up by someone. Even the thought of kidnapping offered more hope than the frigid fields. Moments, dragged into hours and hours into days, with the mystery of Jimmy’s disappearance making front page hews along with March’s worst storm. After nearly a week of frustrating search by volunteer posses, a member of the Civil Aer- onautics patrol, whose plane had roamed the area despite the wea- ther, suggested that an “ESP man” be consulted. Why not telephone Mr. G. Croiset, the paragnost of Utrecht, Holland? Evidences of the extra-sensory talent of Croiset had appeared recently in Sunday supplements and surely he ‘was worth a try. Jimmy’s parents agreed. Win- throp’s Methodist minister, the Reverend Arnold Langner, a young man with a certain knowledge of metaphysics, saw no reason why any avenue of aid should be left unexplored. The overseas telephone operator was called and in a short time Holland and Iowa were in communication, drawn together by 37 1, Marcus Bach, Ph. D, 18 months old, was Jimmy Franck, just 40 feet fram his Winthrop, la., home when he disappeared on March 22, 1961. the inexplicable fate of a missing boy. Croiset was given the quickest and barest information as to the circumstances of the case. With equally quick dispatch, he trans- mitted this information: three and one-half miles from the home, you will find an overpass. Near this overpass is a clump of trees. Here you will find the boy. This precise advisement sent a stir through the cold and weary groups of searching men. It fired both their imagination and their
Page 38
38 hopes, for some three and one- half miles from the Franck home there is an overpass, and a grove of trees does stand nearby. The words of the “ESP man” were electrical. They flashed into the newspapers and radio broadcasts, but, most of all, they gave heart to the family and friends of little. Jimmy Franck. After hours of searching, how- ever, of shoveling and stomping and probing of the designated spot, it was grudgingly agreed that the efforts were fruitless. Hope that the boy could possibly be found alive now waned. Many people had given him up for dead days ago. The only possible chance that he survived lay in increasing rumors that he had been kidnap- ped. A report about a “strange car” having been seen in the vicin- ity persisted. Was it possible that a ‘sex offender had apprehended Jimmy? Had the lad wandered off and been picked up by a childless couple? So strong was the faith in Croi- set that it was decided to call him again. After all, he had clairvoy- antly designated correctly several locations. So a call was made. “We have not found the boy where you believed him to be,” he was told. “Do you have any other advice?” “Tt seems to me that he should be where I described,” was the FATE answer. ‘Here is another thing. On a side road nearby the house you will find an abandoned shack. Pro- ceed 200 meters southward from the shack. Search there.” Once more the uncanny percep- tion of a man some 5000 miles away caught the imagination of those who knew the Iowa country- side. For there was, indeed, an abandoned shack on a side road— how did Herr Croiset know that? And since he did know it, was it not possible that he also knew where the boy would be found? Hope again surged through the Franck home and once more the tireless searchers followed the lead of the “ESP man.” Once more, without success. Three weeks went by and the mystery lay as deep and silent as the unmelting snow. It was re- ported that the FBI was stepping in. But surely no one would have kidnapped the boy for ransom. The Francks were not well-to-do people. Or how could a sex maniac find the boy in an area so remote and within the time limit of the three short hours in which the dis- appearance took place? And who among the local gentry would or could be guilty of such a crime? Rumors of all kinds flooded the Winthrop area. It was at this juncture that I suggested to the Reverend Arnold Langner that we venture once more
Page 39
ESP AND THE MISSING FARM BOY 39 into the realm of ESP. My advice was to get in touch with Peter Hurkos. Known to many because of publicity given him on the Alcoa hour and known intimately to a few who respect both his psychic ability and his personality, Hurkos is among the most adept in this field. He is also a much maligned and pestered man, continually be- ing sought and bothered by those who are looking for mental magic. The nature of this case seemed to justify my getting in touch with Peter Hurkos who, at the time, was in Wisconsin. In a telephone call, I asked to see him, explaining only that a boy was missing. An appointment time was set and I went to see him. I took with me a shirt belonging to little Jimmy Franck which his mother had sup- plied. Hurkos, a youngish appearing man in his early 40s with strong dominant features, gave me the impression of possessing great strength. Well-tanned, with a shock of dark hair and penetrating dark eyes, he carries with him an uncommon sensitivity which seems to vibrate to conditions and per- sonalities around him. He seated himself in a chair, silently fingered the shirt, and began to speak in low, sure tones. “The house is small,” he re- ported. “Very small. The rooms are small and untidy. There are small windows. The back door does not close well.” Having seen the house, I knew that this much was true. In fact, the back door hung slightly askew and often rattled in the wind. “What about the dog?” Hurkos asked without seeming to care for an answer. He was thinking out loud as he sat intently fingering the shirt. “The dog just lies there. The dog can get no track of the boy.” This was correct. The {family dog, whenever I had seen it, lay listlessly on a bale of hay. “The child was not kidnapped,” he said with finality. “There was no kidnapping. The child is dead.” For a moment nothing more was’ said. Then I asked “Where is the body? Is it three and a half miles from the house?” He answered immediately, “No. Not that far. It is close to the house.” . “How close?” I wanted to know. “Perhaps 100 feet. I see a small depression in the ground, like a very small ravine. The child is lying there under the snow, face down. The child had big eyes and pony hair. He is dead.” “When will he be found?” “Within two weeks.” This was-the gist of the Hurkos statement. He was unable, or un- willing, to hazard a suggestion as to the exact location of the body, wid yee.
Page 40
40 if, indeed, the boy was dead, nor did he say how or why he died. In keeping with my promise to keep the information out of the newspapers, I shared it only with Reverend and Mrs. Langner. It now remained to wait and see how these prognostications would fare in the light of future events. Eleven days went by. It was now the Saturday before Easter. A sudden thaw had come to north- east Iowa and a warm sun was rapidly clearing the Franck farm of its sagging drifts. A call had gone out via the press and radio for volunteers willing to go over the grounds and the groves once more in a step-by-step search for little Jimmy. Hundreds of men responded and they set out shoul- der-to-shoulder, fanning out from the farmhouse where the tragedy had struck. In mid-morning the search was abruptly ended. In a depression in a field, the body of the parka-clad FATE boy lay, face down, dead. Nearby were his tiny boots, mired in the soggy earth. A glove lay a short distance away. It was theorized that he had removed his gloves and then his shoes in an effort to ex- tricate himself from the quagmire into which he had wandered. An autopsy showed dirt in his windpipe. Evidently he fell, bog- ged down by the damp earth of that particular terrain. Further ex- amination revealed that death had occurred early in the afternoon, perhaps an hour after he left his father’s side. Where he fell and died was approximately 500 feet from the house. Hurkos was not correct about the distance. He had predicted about 100 feet. But in the other details he was remarkably accurate. So much so, in fact, that those who are inclined to discount para- normal phenomena are beginning to take a second look at the strange unfolding world of ESP. C9 ALWAYS ST.

Morgan ge WAS A strange hap- pening in my boyhood which I have remembered through the long years since the summer of 1926 with crystal clarity. From our home in Independence, Mo., my sister-in-law, Mildred Spangler, had taken me on a visit to her parents’ farm near the little town of Vista deep in the Ozarks. It was a grand farm for a boy of 11. The house was large; a veran- da, deep and shady, stood across the front. The space beneath the porch floor was hidden by lattice work and was a cavern of many possibilities! The hills and valley meadows of the surrounding coun- tryside, too, held unnumbered fas- cinations! One day we went a-neighborin’ for the day at the next door farm, about five miles away. A boy my own age lived there. At first Win- ston and I were a bit leery of each other; but it wasn’t long before I overcame my own shyness and we 4I were planning the day with en- thusiasm. We hitched the jenny-mule to the small cart, got “Mom” to pack us a lunch and set out to explore the upper parts of Coon Creek. “T’ve never even been there my- self,” Win said. “I reckon we bet- ter not tell Mom where we’re a- goin.’ ” Jarring along the excuse for a road that twined, dipped, and rose through the post oak woods, little Jenny’s huge ears lazily keep- ing time with her plodding gait,
Page 42
42 we knew a happy peacefulness | dear to recall. Finally the road dwindled into nothing and we pulled onto the edge of a small clearing. Win tethered Jenny and I “fotched” a pail of water from nearby Coon Creek. Jenny daintily drank her fill and I replenished her supply leaving the bucket wedged solidly between upright rocks. Then we were off-on our adven- ture! Poking sticks down burrows, turning over flat rocks, peering everywhere, we crunched our way along the flinty gravel shores of the creek. Now and then we had to leave the water trail where its banks rose too steeply. Finally we became tired of the creek bank and decided to explore inland. Some primitive sense warned me and I asked, “Win, shouldn’t. we stay with the water so we won’t get lost?” “Naw, itll be awright. We just keep the creek on our left and we kin find it agin,” he said. Overland exploration soon proved a disappointment and eventually I said, “Let’s find the creek and eat lunch, Win.” “Yeah,” he agreed readily. “It oughta be over this way.” We pushed through the woods for an hour before we found it— then it flowed in the wrong direc- tion! FATE “Well, whata you know! That old creek slipped around and dou- bled back on us. I’m tuckered,” Win said. Lunch over and much heartened we decided to start downstream. On and on we trudged. By now the sky was overcast. We had walked in silence for sometime before Win finally voiced our mutual thought. “This here ain’t Coon Creek.” “T know.” “Yeah? How do you know? You been here afore?” We looked at each other for a long moment. “T reckon we aire lost. We best sit a spell and think this out,’ Win said. : We sat. I folded my arms on my knees and lowered my head on to them, resting. “You cryin’?” Win said. “No,” I said. The truth was I could have cried easily, instead I prayed, silently, a simple prayer, “Help me!” Suddenly a feeling of calm as- surance came over me. With this came knowledge which did not bother with whys or wherefores. Jumping to my feet I cried, “Win! I know where we are. Over that hill there’s a steep valley. A spring comes out of some rocks. A big spring! The water goes over a waterfall ’bout eight feet high and that’s “where Coon Creek starts..
Page 43
TRUE MYSTIC EXPERIENCES We climbed the hill. Awe struck and in silence we looked down up- on the scene. To the minutest de- tail it was exactly as I had de- scribed it. Long years have passed since I was 11 and I have learned a lot of convenient grown-up terms to label things I do not comprehend. But as the years pass experiences pile up. One realizes that things do not happen without cause. Now, as I recall this incident, several things appear evident. I received sure knowledge through some me- dium other than my normal senses; prior to this knowledge came a feeling of comfort and assurance; this help came when I needed it urgently, when I asked for it, which to me rules out coincidence. If, in our investigations into our delicately balanced “sixth sense”, we were not so anxious to leave God out of the picture we might learn something really worthwhile. —Independence, Mo. “SO SHE DREAMED” By Ailene Coleman JEN JANUARY, 1959, our 13- year-old daughter began hav- ing strange dreams. We had just moved to Tampa, Fla., and were living out of suitcases in a rented house while our future home was being completed. These temporary arrangements affected Carole most of all, for she missed former friends 43 and made no effort to make new ones at the school she was attend- ing for that brief month. So she dreamed. Not wild night- mares, but quiet dreams which peeked into the future. In one, she dreamed I lost the car keys. I did! In another, she dreamed that the drapes I was having made for the new house would be too short. They were. At that point, to my practical mind her dreams were still nothing more than coincidence. Then, one morning as I was driving her to school, I passed two boys on bicycles. Excitedly, Carole said, “See the boy in the white shirt? Last night, I dreamed that he shot himself. I saw it so clearly. He walked through a green pas- ture until he came to a fence. He CAROLE COLEMAN
Page 44
44 propped his rifle against a fence post and began crawling between the barbed wire. Then his rifle fell. There was a shot and he fell to the ground with a little hole in his neck. I woke up.” It was just a dream and I for- got about it. But two weeks later, on Carole’s last day at that par- ticular school, I had a visible re- minder. School had ended for the day and as Carole slipped into the car, a boy wearing a neck band- age walked by. In a whisper, Car- ole said, “That’s Robert—the boy I dreamed shot himself. And he > did, Mother! Exactly the way I dreamed it. Only a farmer found him and took him to the doctor.” At that moment I had to admit my daughter’s dreams were pro- phetic. But her rare ‘ability was of short duration. Her dreams ended when our household became normal again—Valico, Fla. A HUNCH IN TIME By Louise McDougall OME 30 YEARS AGO, in July, 1930, before my husband and I were married, we drove to what was then called Washington Street Airport—the kind of place one could get an airplane ride for $3.00. Never having been up in an airplane I thought it would be a thrill. However, there was another couple ahead of us, so we waited. FATE When they came down it was then our turn to go up. Just as we walked up to the two-seater some- thing, I don’t know what—intui- tion, conscience, premonition—held me back. I had a most uneasy feeling and told Donald I had changed my mind, to let the couple waiting behind us go up in our place. After much arguing Donald grudgingly gave in and let the other couple take our turn in the airplane. They had not been up in the air two minutes when their Piper Cub seemed to flutter mo- mentarily, like a wounded bird, and then suddenly it spiralled down to earth carrying the couple and their pilot to tragic deaths. “There, but for the Grace of God, went Donald and me!” What was that mysterious some- thing that warned me just in time? Donald never questions my hunches these days for it was my mysterious hunch that saved our lives so long ago.—Cardif f-By-The- Sea, Calif. THE POWER OF PRAYER By Mrs. Y. C. Klitchman JN MARCH, 1940, my father, O. A. Dodd, lay dying of a thrombosis. It was my turn to sit with him, and as I listened to his labored breathing, it seemed to me that he might go any moment. We had had a succession of
Page 45
TRUE MYSTIC EXPERIENCES nurses but none suited him for more than a few days at a time. He should have been in a hospital but refused, stubbornly, to go. The doctor ordered oxygen for him which my brother procured in tanks, without it he could not breath. Even so the doctor had told us all that Father had little time left as the condition of his heart was so bad. Now, as I watched him there, propped up on half a dozen pil- lows I decided there must be some- thing I could do or at least try to do. I began to pray, silently, in my own way. Something said I must try to keep him with us: Father would be 79 in a few months. The doctor had pointed out that he had lived a good long life, that we- should accept his death as God’s will. Still I felt it would do no harm to talk to God and tell Him my side of the story. I explained Dad and I had been almost strangers for a long time. After I married we seemed to drift apart. Too, I’d always had a feel- ing that he resented me, as if I was one child too many in the family, although he was kind to me, but in an impersonal way. Yet I felt that he loved me, but with reservations. Now it seemed if Fa- ther could just be with us for a little longer we, he and I, could get better acquainted and any shortcomings on my part would 45 be made up. I asked God please to listen to my thoughts and I know that He did. Looking directly at Dad I re- membered the passage in the Bible where Jesus told the sick man to take up his bed and walk. I began to say, silently, “You can do that, too, Dad. Come on, take up your bed and walk, then you can stay here with us for a little while longer. You know you can do it, Dad, if you’ll just make the effort. If Jesus let the sick man get up and walk He will let you do the same. You’ve just got to want to, that’s all. Now, come on, make the effort; take up your bed and walk!” I repeated these words over and over for nearly an hour. I put such effort into it I became faint and my throat ached. Then suddenly Dad opened his eyes. He looked at me and smiled. He was breathing easier and his eyes had lost their glassy look. When he spoke his voice was firm. “J had a strange dream,” he said. It seemed we had taken him to a hospital against his wishes and he decided he was not going to stay there. He made several at- tempts to leave and finally the at- tendants strapped him to the bed. He said he thought to himself, “They can’t keep me here this way. When they are not around I'll just get up and walk out of here with : s aN

This was my prayer yet I could scarcely believe my ears when he related it back to me. In less than a week he no longer needed the oxygen to help him breath. In no time at all he was FATE up and about the house. When: summer came he was able to do the chores he had always done. He lived another. three years while his doctors shook their heads and marveled at his recovery. In those last years he and I came to know and enjoy each other more than in all the years that had gone before. He was a little past 82 when he died peacefully in his sleep at his home in Wateroliet, Mich.—Coloma, Mich. THE MIND’S EYE SEES A MURDER VICTIM RS WRIGHT, author of a syndicated newspaper col- umn, recently published a let- ter from a lady reader who, according to the details related, was astonished by apparent ev- idence of ESP in her own fam- ily. Her husband, the reader in- formed Edan Wright, was a bookkeeper who paints as a hobby. A month previously he painted the portrait of a pure- ly imaginary woman. She had a thin face and deep-set eyes which the letter writer’ de- scribed as “lovely and haunt- ing.” Her dark hair and her dress were of a style that had ' been in vogue 50 years ago. The writer said that when her husband showed the por- trait to her, he remarked that something was missing. He stated he felt the woman ought to have a small mole at the corner of her mouth and the collar of her dress should be fastened with a pin. He took a brush and added these touches to the portrait. A week before she mailed her letter to Edan Wright, the lady said, she received a bundle. of English papers from a friend who lives in London. In one of the papers she found a story about an unsolved murder that happened 50 years ago. “Star- ing me straight in the face,” she wrote, “was a photograph of the woman my husband had painted, complete even to the mole and the pin.” &

Leslie Qualls tells how an experience with a lost baby seal led to the compositon of “The Homesick Seal,” for the Boston Symphony Orchestra. “I spoke to the huge gorilla and, with genile noises, he reached out to me through the bars of his cage.” WHEN I WAS FIVE years old, in July, 1908, I first heard the great “Cry Of The Sea”, that vast cry of aloneness whose echoes rippled far out over sky and ocean, into spacelessness. The first cry was for Mother, the second cry was for God; all of which came from the wildly yearning heart of the dearest little baby seal. Shimmering and silvery she 47 looked up into my face with plead- ing, velvety brown, soulful eyes. The tide had washed her into shore. Little Silver Seal and I were alone on the beach. Finally, to comfort her I took her up in my arms. Her minor wails immediate- ly changed to soft moans. My sym- pathy and love flowed out to her as I said aloud, “Dear little friend, your mother did not forsake you.
Page 48
48 She lost you. She is far out at sea but don’t worry, I will find a way to help you and maybe, who knows, some day when you return to the sea, you and your mother may meet again.” I was surprised to find how heavy that little seal was; yet how warm and gentle. It was amazing how she let me lift her any old way, caress her, do anything I wanted with her. She was quieting down when sud- denly the rough voice of a farmer harshly commanded me to drop the seal, quickly, roaring out that I was a crazy kid, blaspheming the sacred harmony and meaning of all nature and life. Rushing down to us he grabbed the seal from my arms and started down to the wa- ter, carrying her by her tail, with arm outstretched, whereupon the seal turned into a vicious, barking, snarling creature, furiously lash- ing and twisting herself in his grip, trying to bite his leg. I ran after him crying, begging him not to throw her back into the sea but to take her home, put her in a tub, nurse her and give her back to the sea when she was a little older and could take care ‘ of herself. He finally was won over and did just this, making a spe- cial tank for her and, though he cursed all the way home with her, he was, as time went on, very kind to her. FATE As soon as I got home in my muddy, blue and white checked rompers I sat right down to the piano and from octave to octave played the wild, calling wail of the little silver seal. Her eyes and her voice had been hauntingly human and I played her wail over and over. My grandmother seemed . strangely affected by it and asked me what I called it. Immediately I answered, The Homesick Seal. She had me play it for a friend of hers, Bertram Currier, a musician, who played the cello in the Bos- ton Symphony Orchestra. He cop- ied the main theme and some years later, in 1911 or 1913, I heard my Homesick Seal played in a Bos- ton Symphony concert with full orchestra. Carl Muck conducted. It made me dream of little Silver Seal and hope she had found her mother back home in the sea, just as she had helped me to find God. * * * ARK RAINY afternoons when I was eight years old I heard wonderful concerts up in the attic. I never failed to be there. Hundreds of super-soprano and falsetto voices in amyriad of pitch- es, sang harmoniously together like one voice—trising and swelling, dy- ing again, with hypnotic rhythm. Now, I could not see these little trilling ladies but if I sat very still, under the eaves. I would hear them
Page 49

They — said I was tetched, but I knew it was the song of the little Nice Folks I heard. : As I grew older I still heard this fascinating, tremolo singing in oth- er attics and in kitchen cupboards when I was alone. In one attic some of these tiny, furry songsters put in an appearance so I could watch them as well as listen to their: music. When I was about 20 years old my father, Dr. Henry Tolman, who was a nose, throat and ear specialist, had my hearing tested on. an electrical machine. After- wards, when he studied the notes of the test a puzzled scowl grew between his brows. Finally he looked up and told me he took it all back about me being tetched because I heard mice singing in the attic.as a child. The test prov- ed I had supernormal hearing. I can hear sounds much higher than are heard with normal hearing. Just after this he heard over the radio an account of a mouse sing- ing, so we knew then that a few people can hear them. To experiment I bred all kinds of imported mice only to find that just the homely little brown or gray wild mice are the beautiful singers, though all mice love music and have extremely sensitive hear- ing themselves, Next I experimented with ham- sters and found them most “chat- ty.” One evening as I was in the midst of a long conversation with my hamster, Squeaky, my husband stopped in amazement to listen. It was no one sided conversation he heard. Squeaky kept up a steady flow of all kinds of chatter sounds, making me such very definite an- swers that one just knew what he meant, each time I explained some- thing to him. My husband said he never would have believed it if he had not wit- nessed it — especially with such a little animal! * * * ONKEYS, CATS, DOGS, parrots, and chipmunks also have talked with me in their own ways. They can all be trained to make certain sounds for “yes” and “no”, “I don’t know”, and other simple meanings. Both a pet mon- key and Arabella, my tortoise shell cat, always answered correctly, as I would later verify, when I asked them if my telephone had rung while I was out. Another time I was crying be- cause of shock, sudden bereave- ment, and being left alone. I was forced to stop crying for there was Arabella, stretching her face up to me with an intense look, as she _ aD ee Sa = ee * . > |
Page 50
50 kept repeating insistently, “Meow, meow, meow,” just as fast and loud as she could. She was saying, “I am still here! Look at me!” After Arabella’s death she re- turned with all the comforting, cheerful, happy talking sounds she knew I had understood when she was among the living. This satis- fied me that Kitty Arabella was all right and still among the living —in another vibration. Then there was the time I had been thrilled and excited with the wonder, power and strength of the gorilla at the circus. When the big show was over I went in back and found Gargantua alone, out-of- doors in his huge cage. Although great signs, “Dangerous,” “Keep Back,” were posted on the cage I slowly walked up to him. Hearing the lonely, heart-rend- ing, long-drawn-out moan break from his ugly lips as I caught his eye, the same sympathy and love flowed from me to Mr. Gorilla as I had poured out so long ago to a little, homesick baby seal. Instinc- tively I put out my hand to the huge creature as I talked aloud to him, trying to comfort him in his hopeless state of captivity. “T am so sorry—but try to un- derstand it will not last—you will be happy and free again some day in another life, somewhere,” I told him. The huge, shaggy gorilla did FATE seem to understand and with pa- thetic, gentle little noises he ex- tended his great hand through the bars of his cage. My hand was just about to clasp his in friendship, al- ready our fingers had touched, when loud, sharp voices of circus men yelled, “Get away from. there, quick! Do you want to be killed, you crazy girl?” With a smile, I slowly and calm- ly walked away for I knew I had made another friend. With under- standing love comes; fear goes. * * * aes I HAVE had many other, similar experiences with animals, even with snakes, I should like to tell you one about the ani- mal we all love—the dog. My father’s red, field spaniel, Peter, always knew when some member of the family was dying, even if they were away from home in the hospital. He would seek me out, sit erect in the middle of the room, point his nose at the ceiling and let out a wild, wolf-like howl that gradually became a wail. He would repeat these weird, howling wails, until the relative was com- pletely moribund. Later we would get news of the relative’s death on- ly to find it had occurred at the very hour Peter started to howl. * * - F YOU WILL let them, animals will open up a whole new world to you, whether they are domestic

YOU CAN LEARN TO TALK WITH ANIMALS 51 or wild animals. They want to be friends. They want to be under- stood. They have much to tell us and to teach us, if we but tune our hearts and ears to them. They don’t like people who are afraid of them for with this fear they sense distrust, and so they decide these people are not their friends. I have told these true exper- iences out of my life in the hope of showing others the Open Door to the gold mine of happiness to be shared between humans and animals. This psychic communion between animals and men can be developed in all who love animals. It can become, not a rare experi- ence, but a common one. First of all, you must have an innate love for animals; then you must realize your animal is a real person—in fur. Hold the animal’s eye while you talk with him or her, and talk quite normally as to another human being. Know your animal understands you—he does, though his way of knowing is dif- ferent from yours. The inflection of your voice has a lot to do with it. Talk to him in his language al- so, varying the sounds that are na- tive to him according to whether he is a dog person, a horse person, a cat person, or some other kind of person. Whispering in the nities ear often has great effect. But talk, have patience, keep at it every day; take a few minutes out each day to have a special talk with your pet. The practice will be most rewarding, and surprising! The ancient Bible tells us that once upon a time all men talked with the animals and birds and understood their language also— even better than I do. : — FISHERMAN’S FORTUNE CCORDING to Reuters news service, a fisherman recently lost his gold wedding ring while fishing near his village not far from Nicosia, Cyprus.

ie JUNE, 1930, I felt forced by circumstances to purchase good will in the form of 42 lumps of greenish stone. Actually fate here- by placed in my hands three an- cient tokens of that true cham- pion of good will among men— Jesus Christ. But I could not know this at the time. I had been condemned as a spy and ordered cast out of Turkey when my military escort insisted I buy the good will of some Turk- ish peasants by exchanging part of my few funds for common, or- dinary stones. how closely these Third Century portraits resemble our modern pictures of Christ. ee oe STORY OF these coins of Christ began the moment I stepped ashore in Turkey’s Asia Minor.

I later discovered that my 42 worthless green lumps were 42 an- cient Roman and Byzantine coins. And on three copper pieces dating from the third Century I found portraits of Jesus Christ—the like- nesses ‘of the Savior coined in en- during alloys less than 300 years after His face had been seen among men. Here the face and fig- ure of Christ is represented by an artist only a few generations younger than the Son of God. Per- sonally, I was astonished to see 52 By Dy.

My interpreter, Djemil Okash- oglu of Robert College, Istanbul, and I were having difficulty get- ting from European to Asiatic Turkey, the two parts of the na- tion separated by the famous strait, the Dardanelles. We took a coast- wise steamer to Channakale in Asia Minor, but were thrown in jail for

From there we were rowed to the Asiatic mainland. As Djemil and I climbed out of our little boat onto the shore of Asia Minor a screaming, frantic- ally gesticulating, barefoot Turk, in long, white underwear, came racing over the hot sand. As he ran he tried, unsuccessfully to pull on a khaki shirt. This green- gray garment was the only sugges- tion in his appearance that he was a soldier and that. his present mis- sion was to capture us. I flashed my United States pass- “33 port at him and pointed to my Turkish visa. “Here, you see, I have a permit from the Turkish government to visit any part of Turkey,” Djemil translated. The Turkish shore guard was confused and non-plussed because he could neither read nor write but he did know it was his duty to declare us prisoners of the Turk- ish Army, to take us to his straw sentry hut, to crank up his mili- tary telephone, and to report the events of his captain in the town of Keykhili. We must have been at the straw sentry shack on the shore for two hours when, slowly, out of no- where, came a fat, swarthy soldier

54 riding on a Mongolian pony. He was heavily weighted down by his artillery and supplies. He held a rifle in his hand and wore a belt filled with 30 calibre cartridges, in addition to which he carried two extra bandoliers of cartridges criss- cross his body. The Captain found a peasant somewhere with a buckboard wag- on and a skinny old nag and off we went, bouncing through parch- ed, infertile fields and across rem- nants of old Roman stone roads until we arrived at headquarters. Because there was a feud be- tween the Mayor and the Captain for authority in Keykhili both now claimed me as their prize. As a result I was registered in jail and at military headquarters. Until the Captain found out what to do with Djemil and me a number of days later I was kept at night in the attic of the Mayor’s modest residence and during the day I was allowed to sit under a big sycamore on the shady side of the coffeehouse near the Mosque. Here the curious townspeople could come to gawk at me and ask ques- tions while a tame raven scolded me from his favorite roost on the crescent that surmounted the min- aret. Here I could entertain the coffeehouse keeper who once had been as far away as Istanbul and felt that he had seen the world. This quiet life under the syca- FATE more tree came to a sudden end one morning when the Captain ar- rived with his artillery, his pony and the peasant with his buck- board. There were transportation orders. At Aivalik we were put up in an old house around which armed guards with fixed bayonets march- ed all night. I now suspected we were in for real trouble. Even Dje- mil was unable to find out why we were being held by the military. Next day we were put into an old-fashioned gypsy wagon, with its mirrors, brightly painted dec- orations, tassels and bells. There were even purple plumes on the bridle of the crippled horse that drew it. In the gaudy conveyance we were taken to Ezine, capital of the province, and to the mili- tary court room where I was im- mediately charged with espionage. This took us completely by sur- prise. : Djemil saw a newspaper from Istanbul and the mystery of our status was quickly solved. Law- rence of Arabia had sneaked in through the eastern desert and had incited the Kurds to rebellion against the Turks. Lawrence had been captured and was quickly ransomed by the British govern- ment. Turkey was filled with spy scares and every foreigner was suspect. I was officially charged with
Page 55
ARE THESE THE EARLIEST PORTRAITS OF CHRIST? 55 being an accomplice of Lawrence of Arabia rather than a scholar- ship-supported zoologist collecting mouse skins for the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard. Whenever my program of mouse catching was mentioned the gen- erals raised their black eyebrows skeptically and made wry faces. Because these Turks had no word for science in their vocabulary they substituted the word medicine in my testimony. This complicated things considerably. They made me say in their records that I was catching mice for medical purposes ‘and then tried to force me to tell for what diseases I fed mice to the people. I denied feeding mice to the people. “First you say you are catching mice for medical purposes and now you say that you do not use mice for medical purposes! Just what *do you mean?” thundered the pros- ecutor. The trial for my life dragged on aimlessly for a number of hours and my answers always led to more and more confusion. Finally the Court concluded that I was too insane to stand trial and the pros- ecutor, in addition, declared in stentorian tones that the Repub- lic of Turkey maintains that “Any University in America is also crazy that will send a man half way around the world to catch mice! Don’t they have mice at home?” The Military. Court “dismissed the charges against me for lack of evidence but ordered Djemil and me taken to Channakale for de- portation. As we chugged along the then new military highway that runs from Ezine to Channakale we passed through desolate country with only briars growing here and there in an uninhabited desert. The driver of the old Ford muttered something to Djemil as we passed some wagon tracks that led over | a rolling piece of land to the left. “That leads to- Eski-Stamboul,” said Djemil. “It means ‘Old Con- stantinople,’ but that’s not so, it was Troy of the Greeks in ancient times.” “J shall never pass this way again!” I thought, so I offered two dollars to the driver for an hour of wandering among the ruined walls and what was left by the famous Schliemann and half a dozen others who have turned the site upside down searching for the treasures of history. For an hour I dreamed among the ruins, in my imagination see- ing proud old King Priam, the beauteous Queen Helen, Hector and Achilles as they fought and died, the Trojan Horse, the burn- ing of the mighty walled city, the fleeing of the refugees. I saw the brook, Scamander, de- scribed as a mighty river when
Page 56
56 Troy was besieged. In 1930 it was a stream so small I could cross it on the flat stones of its water- course. Several men and a woman from the desert were picking up these flat stones to build a house. We passed a group of three such mud-and-stone huts as we bounced back to the highway. A boy with a package in one hand raced out-of one of the huts. He shouted to us to stop, waving the other hand at us frantically. We stopped to see what the - emergency might be and he opened the package. In it were many lumps of green granite which he wanted to sell. “What are they,” I asked and Djemil translated. “T don’t know,” the boy answered in Turkish. Neither Djemil nor the driver knew what they might be either. I explained that I didn’t want to buy any rocks but the driver ad- vised, “You’d better buy them no matter what he wants. The secret service will be along in an hour to see what happened to you and we'd better have these peasants saying a good word for you!” Djemil and I agreed instantly. We did not want to be reported to the police again. The boy said he wanted a nickel but I couldn’t find a nickel in my pocket. I did find a quarter, how- FATE ever, and felt that I had been badly beaten in the deal for 42 lumps of useless green granite! Thirteen years later my wife was teaching Latin and I recalled that the region of Western Turkey was once a Roman Province. I remembered also a handful of worthless lumps of green granite - that the peasant boy forced me to buy for a quarter when I had stop- ped to visit the Trojan ruins: I had dropped the green objects into a zipper pocket at the back of my briefcase and had forgotten all about them. When I rummaged in the attic and found the old brief- case there they were, 42 of them! But why green granite? T began to dig at one lump with my pocket knife and granules that resembled metallic corrosion came off. Possibly the lumps contained bronze beads? Curiosity now drove me on. It required all my spare time during a day to dig and scrape this lump down to the center. How- ever, my efforts were rewarded. At the center I found a coin. The 42 pieces required over a month to clean but my diligence gave me a collection for which I have been offered $1000. These coins form a veritable summary of the ancient history of Asia Minor. From the Byzantine period of 300 A.D. there are three large cop- per coins showing Christ with a

One coin, quartered by the Sign of the Cross studded with dots, says “IC XC NIKA”, “In Jesus Christ himself.” Another coin bears “IS XS IN SIG”, “Jesus Christ In This Sign”. On the obverse side of this latter coin is a portrait of Christ Himself. Another coin bears the famous chi-rho symbol of Christ still used today by Catho- lics and Protestants alike. Against my will I had bought this irreplaceable treasure, THE REINCARNATED COUPLE ED STERRETT, 48, pro- prietor of a leathergoods store in a fashionable London shopping district, believes he is a reincarnation of Akhnaton, Yan Egyptian pharaoh who died over 3,000 years ago and who is famed for his efforts to es- tablish monotheism during his reign. Sterrett’s fiance, Beryl Wright, 48, is convinced that she is a reincarnation of Nef- ertiti, wife of Akhnaton, one of the most beautiful queens of ancient Egypt. — Sterrett is an amateur artist and reportedly produces some of his best work while in a hyp- notic trance. Miss Wright has her own business as a shoemak- er. Sterrett, according to feature writer Kay Windsor of Women’s News Service, learned of his past life as Akhnaton a few years ago when he “started to communicate with the spirit world.” He had suspected for a long time that he was really Akhnaton, he said. He related that one day Miss Wright walked into his shop and immediately reminded him of pictures he had seen of Nef- ertiti. When he asked her to model for a portrait of the long-dead queen, Miss Wright stated, she felt faint. She said that spirits had told her she was Nefertiti born again, and that she had waited years for a man to say he saw her as the famed Egyptian queen. Sterrett believes his meeting with Miss Wright was not ac- cidental. He asserted that he and Miss Wright were in love - and that they were getting mar- ried because “we feel it is our duty to help the royal spirits who have chosen us.” He feels it was intended that the spirits of Akhnaton and Nefertiti should be united thousands of years after they died.

y Pee by Liat: Harry es Riescherg locates treasure ship The native’s tale of a message from long-dead pirates seemed only fantasy — until he also found their ship. N SANDWICH HARBOR, South Africa, like littered bones, lie the shattered hulks of wrecked ships, laden with both treasure and general cargo. Here are chests of glittering gold, shiny silver, and other enticing treasure; precious -hoards that appeal to those of an- adventurous spirit. In a mysterious lagoon, at the edge of what was once the slave trading port of Port d’Ilheos, just inside the entrance to Walvis Bay, 58 lie the remains of an old galleon, a pirate craft in its heyday. Its mast tips are sometimes visible as a landmark warning of sand dunes which often project from the wa- ter’s surface. Nearby is a group of ragged rocks in’ the form of a half- moon which mariners often use as a beacon mark when the rotting galleon’s hulk is covered over. This pirate craft, the Santo An- tonio, was once the proud galleon of one Pedro Figueira, known
Page 59
among the “Brotherhood of Piracy” as the “Portuguese.” The rendezvous of this freebooter and his band of cutthroats was on one of the smaller islands in Sand- wich Harbor. Here they kept their plunder and loot and their wounded from the numerous raids in which they constantly were engaged. Pedro Figueira, it appears, had pirate’s luck, for he seized ship after ship and grew ever bolder, increasingly daring, and rapacious. Let us see what the records tell us of this early pirate craft whose rotting timbers from time to time suddenly appear above the sand dunes and then as quickly disap- pear. The mysterious story opens on the morning of February 12, 1789. The San Vicente, a Spanish galleon was sweeping northward from Cape Town, after a profitable passage, to Cadiz, Spain. Her tinted canvas was swelling in the breeze and her hold was stowed heavily with gold and silver, pearls and rich mer- chandise valued at nearly 2,000,000 dollars. Upon her decks paced foppish cavaliers, richly clad wo- men, grim-faced dons, and a num- ber of sandaled, tonsured friars. Suddenly, across the horizon, a sail appeared. It came closer and closer, speeding straight toward the San_ Vicente. When the stranger’s sails and hull became clearly visible to her captain, he spoke quickly to 59 his mate. He knew her to be a pirate craft. He shouted sharp, crisp orders to his men, and in- stantly the decks swarmed with her crew hurrying to obey. With fright- ened glances at the rapidly ap- proaching craft, they bent to sheets and braces and swung the great yards, and the: galleon veered in her course. Heavily armed as was the San Vicente, the Spanish captain had no intention of battling with the pirates if he could avoid it. His craft held a vast treasure; she car- ried men and women of exalted Spanish rank and station; and he was responsible for their safety and the treasure before all else. If he fought and won, his galleon inevi- tably would be badly damaged, lives would be lost, and the vessel might be so. injured that she would sink before making land. Moreover, the captain had a wholesome dread of pirate craft as he had, on previous occasions, had experiences at close quarters. They had an uncanny and devilish way —as if the here- tics were under the protection of Satan himself — of ignoring broad- sides and sailing straight through fire, smoke, and ball to come along- side and board a ship. So, as long as he could run for it, run he would. But the San Vicente was sluggish and the Santo.Antonio soon came alongside and the dons fell prey to the piratical crew. They were an
Page 60
60 “unkempt, ragged, hairy, swarthy, evil-eyed lot, clad im torn shirts which exposed thick necks and mus- cular chests, with their trousers coming only to their knee.” The passengers of the captured galleon were quickly disposed of as valueless, together with those of the crew who would not join the pirate band. The treasure from the captured craft was quickly trans- ferred to the Santo Antonio and the San Vicente was scuttled. These matters attended to, the pirate gal- leon set sail. However, within a few hours’ sail- ing distance, the Santo Antonio ran directly into the arms of two Span- ish men-of-war sweeping down from the northwest to meet and convoy the ill-fated San Vicente to Cadiz. They opened fire, sending broadside after broadside into the pirate craft, which quickly went to the bottom, carrying with her both the captured treasure and every soul aboard. The two men-of-war continued to pour round shot into her sinking hull and rigging as long as there was a timber afloat, and picked off with small-arms fire those of the pirate crew who swam to the sur- face after the craft had passed be- neath the water. Thus did the Santo Antonio go to her final anchorage, in the narrow entrance to the little fishing settle- ment of Port d’Iheo, in Sandwich Harbor. FATE C= HUNDRED and 34 years went by, when in 1923, a na- tive Hottentot, one Gulab Lal, told his master of a strange dream which he had had. His master, Willem Van Oyen, a Transvaal diamond prospector, listened skeptically to the Hottentot’s weird and fantastic vision. The native, Gulab Lal, told of how he had dreamed of a mighty figure, clad in a long velvet robe, tri-cornered hat, buckled knee breeches, and a peruke, who had come and stood beside him in his sleep, leaning a brown hand upon the thatch pole of his kraal house. His face was heavily lined, his eyes were hard, almost merciless, and his mouth grim .... : Slowly the huge figure shook his head as though he were signaling to someone; he lifted his sword so that the soft, fine lace fell back from his wrist, and it was stained a bright crimson— blood! In this position the figure held the sword aloft for -a moment before Gulab Lal’s startled eyes. Then Gulab Lal saw a huge gal- leon. He saw her deck, with water tumbling over her bow, seething along into the scuppers. The moon- light on the sea’s surface wove strange, serpentine patterns, shad- Owy and... Suddenly from out of the surf appeared a strange company of straggling, ill-clad, swaggering,
Page 61
DREAM LOCATES TREASURE SHIP 61 swashbuckling men in boots, with trousers to their knees. It seemed vivid and terrible to the native Hottentot. The peaceful atmosphere was rudely rent by loud oaths, cursings, and damnations spat out of hoarse throats. Gulab Lal had opened his mouth to cry out, but he could force no sound from his fright-constricted throat. He tried desperately to lift himself, to awake, to get up and run and hide from his weird vision. But Gulab Lal could not move; he lay there as motionless as the grass mat upon which he slept, un- able to lift even his hand to hide the strange scene from his vision. And slowly and silently that un- natural, villainous band came to- ward him, nearer and nearer; he could see the moonlight upon their faces, upon their fierce dark eyes, and upon the cutlass blades that swung at their sides. They moved quietly as shadows. And with them came the stench of ooze and mire. Cold sweat pierced Gulab Lal’s forehead and palms as the scene ' passed before him; he shook vio- lently, his scalp stirred like the hackle of an angry dog. It seemed as if his head would burst with the throbbing of his pounding heart. Closer and closer they came! Now they silently gathered around their leader, the mighty figure near- est Gulab Lal. The moonlight shin- ing through the opening to the hut fell full upon the leader’s face. For a time—hours it seemed — they stood before Gulab Lal, motionless, silent. Then the tall figure slowly drew his cutlass from its loop and ran his thumb along its razor-like edge. He glanced down at the Hot- tentot again and his thin lips moved as though he spoke. He turned, lips still moving, and pointed out over the sea toward some sand dunes, toward the spot where the opening of the lagoon formed the entrance to the harbor. With a flourish of his glittering cut- lass he pointed straight at Gulab Lal, and while no sound came from his voiceless lips, it seemed to Gulab Lal that he could read the words _ they formed: “Beware, sirrah! Ye treasure wreck lieth there, wedged fast atwixt the rocks and sand, hidden to ye chain plates in ye dunes. Beware, ‘sirrah! Ve curse has fallen upon ye galleon —I warn ye fair, beware!” Then the tall figure lifted his blade before the Hottentot’s eyes, holding it in silent salute, then sud- denly his villainous specters followed him out of. the thatched hut and across the sands. Swiftly into the shining waters they marched until the sea closed over their heads and they were lost to sight. Thus the fantastic dream and vision ended. Gulab Lal awoke and stumbled to his feet, his legs cramped and numb. For a while he felt that
Page 62
62 he actually had seen the apparitions with his waking eyes. His master, upon being told of the dream, chuckled at the fan- tastic story. And Gulab Lal, glanc- ing down at the ground, avoided his master’s eyes and questioning gaze. He was silent, for there was nothing to say; it was but a mission- ary-educated Hottentot’s dream, a vision. k * Ox EVEN WEEKS passed. One day Gulab Lal came running to his master, this time with the news that he had found a “great ship” in the sand dunes of the lagoon of the harbor. “Sahib! Sahib! I find ship — big ship!” shouted Gulab Lal. “Nonsense, Gulab Lal! You’ve had another dream.” “No, sahib,” he said in a low, excited voice. “Does not the sahib forget that it was Gulab Lal who told what he saw that night? Does the master forget?” “Ves, I fancy you did, Gulab Lal, but it was only a dream you had,” said the master. “Sahib,” Gulab Lal said gravely, “it is a strange tale which was told the master that night, but the sahib does not know what happened in these waters many, many years ago and which has been handed down to us through the years.” A deep silence fell as his voice died away. It endured for a few brief moments, FATE then the Hottentot slowly added, “What is told is told, sahib.” The old prospector’s lips set hard together. He looked around him more critically now. He half be- lieved the Hottentot’s tale of find- ing a “great ship” among the sand ~ dunes and he set out immediately, that very night, in search of this so-called find. He thought, perhaps, that it might prove to be something of interest, there might possibly be a treasure within the old hulk — if such there was—more valuable than the diamonds he had spent so many years searching for in the back country. It wasn’t long before he arrived at the scene pointed out by Gulab Lal. The native’s story was true! Standing out of an enormous sand dune in the more shallow waters of the little lagoon, the once-ornate hand-carved stern of the old Portu- guese pirate craft, the Santo An- tonio, showed grotesquely in the lantern light. The prospector returned to the nearby village and secured natives. Soon they were back at the site and put to work to “dig out” the wrecked galleon. The work was pro- gressing with a feverish heat when suddenly there came a landslide of the great sand dune under which half of the hulk was buried. More shoveling and digging continued long into the early hours of the morning,

DREAM LOCATES TREASURE SHIP 63 Overhead a dark cloud appeared in the early dawn, not a rain cloud for rain does not fall in this par- ticular seasonless region. It was a dust cloud, bringing a terrific storm of dust and fine sand through the heated air at a rate of some 50 miles an hour. So dense was the storm that the natives were forced to lie flat upon their faces, gasping for breath. When the storm finally passed the wreck of the galleon had van- ished! Every vestige and sign of the ancient pirate hulk had disap- peared. 3 However, the remains of the hulk of the Santo Antonio still rest there, somewhere — buried beneath who knows how many feet and tons of sand. The treasure is still lost; still the unsolved mystery remains. nd MYSTERY OF THE CRACKED GOGGLES aa STORY of a strange link between a pair of shattered flying goggles and a plane crash more than 1,000 miles away recently was re- lated by Tom Hamer in his column “Propwash,” a feature of the Huntington, W. Va., Herald-Dispatch. Bob Newlon, a pilot who op- _ erates a business towing ban- ners carrying advertising for Huntington firms, borrowed a pair of flying goggles from an- other pilot, Hank Simmerman. The goggles had been given to Simmerman by Mel Robinson, a noted stunt pilot, and were a prized possession. As he prepared his yellow Waco bi-plane for a towing flight at Huntington Downtown Airport, Newlon placed the goggles in the back seat. When he reached for them, “not more than five minutes later,” he found both lenses shattered. The incident assumed a mys- terious aspect when Doug Baldwin an airport lineman who had helped to pre-flight’: Newlon’s craft, denied there was any possibility that he might have broken the goggles accidentally. A short time later Hank Sim- merman returned to Hunting- ton from a trip and Newlon reported the damage to the goggles. Simmerman, however, had éven more shocking news. While practicing stunts for an air show in Lake City, Fla., ° Mel Robinson had died in a crash. His death and the shat- tering of the goggles which once belonged to him, Tom Ha- mer points out, both occurred on June 15, 1961. The exact time that both happened is not known—but, according to Ha- mer, some persons think that the two “accidents” occurred simultaneously.

WITH HIS HEAD TUCKED UNDERNEATH ARM A ee eight years ago, during the Korean con- flict, I was stationed with the United States Eighth Army, just south of Seoul, Korea, near the roaring Han River. This was a time when Korea still suffered the ravages of past battles. They had been bloody bat- tles and had left the once beauti- ful and historic city of Seoul al- most completely annihilated. Aft- er them had come famine, poverty, and wide-spread housing problems. HIS 64 People were living in every con- ceivable crude shelter. Some shel- ters were no more than a few brok- en bricks stacked up with a large piece of tin or paper over the top, to keep out rain and snow. The less fortunate ones, usually the very old and feeble or the very young, lived in the very gutters of Seoul. It was not uncommon to see very old women sitting with their feet in the gutters, resting wrinkled and gray old heads on their tired and bony knees. Neith-

er, was it unusual to see a child, parentless and hungry, roaming the — streets like a wild, scared animal, in search of food. Perhaps he also searched for a spark of love. However, Uncle Sam moved my group, a small army postal unit of 16 men, into some old bombed- out Japanese Imperial Army bar- racks. These old barracks had been patched into half-way decent living quarters and partitioned off into very small rooms. One man per room was quite unusual luxury in the Army. It was in one of these small rooms that I saw the ghost of Seoul. June 12, 1953, had been a hot and humid day in Seoul, Korea. I had made my two regular mail runs from Seoul, across the Han River, to Yong-dong-po. This, like most work in Korea during the war, was a seven day a week detail. Later that evenng when someone yelled chow I was quite ready. After dinner and a two hour card game I was ready to retire for the night. Tomorrow would be another hard day. Besides, during the day I had managed to get hold of a good book—in Korea a book of any kind was a rarity. I went to my room and sat down on the narrow canvas cot, placing my precious book on top of a small box containing my oth- er, rather meager possessions. 65 Turning on a light at the head of my bed, I lit a cigarette and lay back, closing my eyes. I thought of — Shelbyville, Ind., my home. I would be there in a few weeks. My dis- charge was due soon. I would be eating Mother’s delicious home- cooked dinners. I could almost smell that Indiana pumpkin pie. These were the thoughts drifting through my mind when I heard my door open and shut. When I opened my eyes what I saw nearly knocked me from my cot. In that instant an impression was stamped on my mind that nev- er has faded. Standing just inside my door was a United States Marine in full battle dress, including an M-one rifle slung over his left -shoulder. Where his head should have been I saw the bloody stump of a neck, sticking up out of the green battle jacket. Bubbles of blood oozed from that gruesome stump and ran down his thick chest. Nestled in the crook of his right arm was a big bloody, blond head. - Blood from it fell to the floor. Slowly this headless Marine moved toward me. He sat down on the box that held my book. After seating himself he lifted his bloody blond head and accurately placed it squarely on that gruesome stump. | Then, with his right hand, he wiped, away beads of perspiration from his forehead. °

66 I never shall forget his words or the way he looked at me. “Chinese have broken through everywhere. I sure will be glad when these three months are up.” He mopped at his brow again. There was dried blood on the back of his hand. ~ I didn’t wait for more. I’m sure I set a speed record getting out of that room and down the dimly-lit hall to my friend’s room. Leo Brandenberg answered my knock, rubbing the sleep from his big German face. He asked me what the devil was wrong. I hesitated. I didn’t want my best friend to think me a fool or an idiot. But tell him I did. And I didn’t cut any corners! I was . Shocked when Leo put his hand on my shoulder and a faint smile crossed _ his lips. “Steve,” Leo said, solemnly, “I’m glad you told me this. It clears up a lot of my troubles. Now, I know that what I saw in there was not hallucination. You, my friend,” he added, with a look of relief on his big. face, ‘Shave just seen what I call the Ghost of Seoul.” I didn’t return to my room that FATE night despite Leo’s suggestion that we both go for a look. I shrugged the suggestion away and went to the night guard’s room, to spend the night. Actually, I was afraid to return. Even the mighty United States Army doesn’t train or pre- pare a man for the situation I had faced that night. Next morning, with a steaming cup of black coffee under my ribs, my courage returned; and I re- turned to my room. I wanted to look at the floor. I had seen those blood droplets splashed onto the floor and I thought they would still be there. I was wrong. Not a single spot remained although I carefully inspected the whole floor. A few weeks after this I was at home in Shelbyville, Ind., - dis- charged from the army. Only re- cently have I realized that from June until September is three months. Everybody knows the Kor- ean War ended in September, 1953. The headless United States Ma- rine was predicting the end of the Korean War, three months in advance, when he said, “TI sure will be glad when these three months are up.” EE FLOATING FIRE BALL IFTEEN residents of Monrovia, Calif., called the police on March 81, 1961, to report seeing a strange flying object. They de- scribed the object as a large ball of fire floating across the sky and gave the time of their sighting as about 8:35 P.M.

French Engineer Paul Paulin took this two-minute time exposure of UFO over the Eiffel Tower at 3:45 a.m. December 29, 1953. During the exposure the obiect was hovering, then moved side- ways (hence the luminous trail), then stopped and hovered again. other unusual and unexplained de- vices. These conclusions are but a few that are obvious from a study I completed recently of 281 photo- graphs and movies of UFOs taken in 19 individual years since 1883. Of these 181 photographs and movies were recorded in the United States and 100 in other countries. In the United States, these pho- tographs were taken in 32 differ- ent states on 130 different occa- sions. Altogether, this study in- cludes 411 separate objects. Cali- fornia has supplied far and away more photographs than any other state, with 39. Arizona follows with seven and New York and Ohio with six each but on the whole they are widely distributed. The persons who took these photographs include astronomers, photographers, housewives, pilots, newsmen and armed service per- sonnel. Surprisinely enough, only two of the 281 photographs were taken by UFO Researchers, which suggests that their luck is only about as good as that of the aver-

age man who happens to be carry- ing a camera. It tends to sup- port the honesty of the pictures. . The heaviest years for UFO photographs were 1950, 1951, 1952, 1954, and 1957 as the ac- companying table shows. These were the years of the large “flur- ries” of UFO sightings, of course. The outstanding characteristic of UFOs has been their maneuv- ering patterns which appear to de- fy the known laws of inertia for objects with mass. It appears that they use an unconventional form of propulsion on which it is not the purpose of this article to spec- ulate. We must consider the very def- inite limitations of this study, on which I would like to comment: 1. The many sightings of Green Firebails and Red Spraying Ob- jects (now under investigation by the Air Force’s “Project Twinkle”) U.S. Coastguardsman Shell R. Alpert photographed ob- jects at Salem, Mass., Air Station at 9:30 a.m. July 16, 1952 through a window screen. These appear to be Saturn-shaped although ex- act form is hidden by their bright glow.

A spherical or disc-shaped ob- ject seen with the light falling on it from any area in front of the observer may appear crescent- shaped because of the shadows, just as the Moon appears crescent- shaped at certain times of the month. 4. Exhaust gases sometimes ap- pear as fiery balls of light. 5. For the purpose of this study, globe-shaped objects are listed with the discs because of the few cases and because many globes may really have been disc-shaped objects pictured from the flat side.

CAMERA’S EYE ANALYSIS 6. Many lights seen at night with speeds less than meteoric are simply nighttime aspects of discs. 7. Many hundreds of still pic- tures purportedly have been taken of UFOs over the years. These could and have been faked and it is virtually impossible to prove otherwise. However, many movies of such anomalous objects do exist and in many cases they confirm the different shapes of the objects revealed in this study. Another Saturn-shaped ob- ject was photographed over Trinidade Island off Bra- zil January 16, 1958. Civ- ilian photographer was Al- miro Barauna. The incident _ was considered to be so im- portant that the President of Brazil himself released the photographs. Credit APRO. 71 8. Angles of flight many times give objects the appearance of changing shapes. 9. Discs could be saucers with domes seen from the bottom but for the purposes of this study only UFOs with domes and appendages will be listed in the “domed sau- cers” classification. 10. Many of the photographs listed by colors have been photo- graphed by black and white film and there is insufficient data as to

The accompanying tables are more than dry statistics. They prove that there are many differ- ent shapes of objects termed “UFOs” or “flying saucers”. They also indicate which ones are seen most frequently. The domed saucers, discs, the cigars and the crescents are most often photographed. The dearth of photographs does not prove that_- other shapes do not exist but mo- tion pictures definitely confirm the existence of objects of these listed shapes. Let’s consider these one by one and see what conclusions can be drawn from the photographs. DISC-SHAPED OBJECTS Y FILES sHoW disc-shaped objects were photographed on 78 different occasions. On 42 occasions they were captured as single objects; still cameras and movies caught them (flying in groups or formations on 36 other occasions.(I use the word ‘“occa- sion” because on some sightings there are multiple photographs.) Their speeds and maneuvers ap- pear to indicate they flew under intelligent control. They were variously photo-

They also were pic- tured in the vicinity of Sputnik II, during an eclipse of the sun, and near a C-119 military transport plane. On 15 occasions photographs of discs showed exhaust or vapor trails; on 11 occasions they were photographed hovering.

They also have been observed to bright- en on accelerating and dim on de- celerating—a phenomenon which could be related to the heating and cooling of metal. Their estimated size has varied from three feet in diameter to 75 over 1,000 feet, and their speeds from a quiet hover to over 24,000 m.p.h.! Discs have been luminous and non-luminous, and their luminosity has ranged from barely visible to intensely brilliant. Most often their color has been reported as bluish- white or reddish-orange—on more

than 50 occasions they have been described as silver-white or white. Yet on 12 occasions been reported as black. Their sounds have ranged from silent while hovering to a loud whooshing or whining while man- euvering. Because of their flashing lights, colors and movements some persons have suggested that the discs are signal objects. In some cases the apparent color has been reflected sunlight. A few photographs ap- pear to show bars of light and stern lines. All in all, this is a bewildering array of colors and behavior, but not so bewildering as to have no rea- sonably defined pattern.

DOMED OBJECTS IN MOST FREQUENT among the photographs used in this analysis are domed objects. UFOs with apparent domes were photo- graphed on 64 occasions, of which they appear to have “domes” on 60 of the occasions and “button tops” on four. On 50 occasions the objects
Page 77
CAMERA’S EYE ANALYSIS were flying singly and on eight in groups—four times in pairs, twice as three objects, and four or five together on two occasions. The other six cases are unknown. On 24 occasions the UFOs were photographed hovering; on nine occasions they had a rotating mo- tion. Here is what the cameras show to be the apparent physical characteristics of these objects: —wWith windows or portholes on 15 occasions. Three portholes are 77 visible on two photographs. —wWith concentric circles on their surface on 17 occasions. —wWith apparent landing gears on 19 occasions. These are usually three-legged, but sometimes are four-legged. —With unknown apertures on two occasions. —Pocked or strangely marked on two occasions. —With an antenna-like projec- tion on four occasions. —wWith apparent fins on three occasions. —With a white top and black bottom on eight occasions. —As a wheel with spokes on two occasions. —With exhaust trails on two occasions. —With rotating motions on nine occasions. —With blinking lights on two occasions. —And variously with apparent struts,-with an apparent 10-runged ladder and radiating some kind of “vapor”. It appears, then, that the domed saucers prefer to operate alone rather than in formations as is characteristic of the disc-shaped UFOs, which flew in groups on nearly half the occasions on which they were photographed. These differences may be significant; we do not know. We can say that the discs were filmed flying in groups

of as many as 18, on eight occa- sions they were pictured in pairs, on 10 occasions three to a forma- tion. The domed objects, too, were filmed over many kinds of loca- tions, including treetops, boats, housetops, beaches, the ocean and near an airplane. Domed UFOs have the ability to hover for minutes or hours, can rise vertically, and can outfly and outspeed any of our fastest air- planes. Apparently the domed UFOs are not self-luminous like the disc- shaped objects and can be seen at night only under unusual circum- stances—such as banking in the full moonlight or on a very close approach. Nearly all the photo- graphs of domed objects in this study were taken in the daytime. Again their behavior is amazing. Many times they make a_high- pitched whistling sound and dis- play red, green and white lights in a row on their outside rim and on their underside. They have been seen circling one another, as if to give some kind of aid apparently related to a pow- er failure. They have been report- ed also to take on water, to de- flect compass needles, to stop mo- tor cars, headlamps and radios and to interfere with radio and televi- sion reception. They even have been reported capable of affecting airplane engines. Their maneuvers are no less un- usual. They have been seen many times descending in a falling leaf pattern. They have been observed to whirl, wobble, waver, hover and skip during their flight. They also can fly fast and have been clock- ed at speeds higher than 9,000 m.p.h. Many times they appear to be ringed with pulsating and blinking lights which have a fluorescent or phosphorescent effect. They are said to have created burns, heat, electric shocks, and temporary paralysis on persons encountering them suddenly. Such reports have come from France, Norway, Ohio,
Page 80
80 Peru, Maryland, Texas, Massachu- setts and Hawaii. Their most frequent where colors have been reported, are silvery-white on 35 occasions and bluish or blackish gray on 20 occasions. Other colors have been reported but not so frequently as to be considered a distinctive char- acteristic. An exception may be a number of photographs where the domes appear to be transparent. In size, the domed UFOs usual- ly vary from an apparent 35 feet in diameter up to 200 feet. Usual- ly the domed saucers are flat and circular except for the domes and the other appendages listed pre- viously in this study. When port- holes are mentioned they usually are seen as two separate groups of portholes. Before proceeding to the next classification I should like to com- ment on the great difficulty of es- timating the size of an unknown object when there are no nearby reference points or objects of known size to compare it with. Some observers, for example, have said that a UFO was the “size of the moon” or “twice the size of the moon.” We all know that the moon is over 2,000 miles in diameter and no UFOs are that big. But because the moon is 240,000 miles out in space, its en- tire disc will be covered by a colors, ° FATE dime held at arm’s length. Do these observers mean that an object estimated to be the “size of the moon” also would be coy- ered by a dime held at arm’s length? We do not know and un- less there are known objects near- by for comparison—such as trees, an airplane, or clouds whose height we know—estimating the size of UFOs becomes pure conjecture. CIGAR-SHAPED OBJECTS Gore objects have been photographed on 18 different Cigar-shaped objects are largest and most dramatic UFO phenomena. Object below was taken Nov. 16, 1957, near Holloman, N. M., by Miss Ella Louise Fortune, Indian Welfare nurse, That at right was obtained by UFO Researcher James W. Mose- ley in Peru—no details available.

occasions—a considerably smaller number of times than discs or domed-shaped . UFOs. In considering cigar-shaped ob- jects, it is important to remember that many UFO theorists regard them as “mother ships” to the discs and domed saucers. This is one of the theories suggested by so eminent an observer as Profes- sor Herman Oberth, who did the basic mathematics on space rocke- try. The theory is proposed because of the numerous observations in which discs and domed UFOs have been seen circling the cigars, like satellites. Such visual observations have been confirmed by radar, photo- graphs, and telescopes. Many cas- es are on hand where the discs and dome-shaped UFOs are reported to have been launched by the cigar- shaped craft, to have returned to them, and to have appeared to
Page 82
82 merge with them in some way. As a consequence, the reported sizes of the larger cigars are enor- mous, with estimates from 1,000 feet long to a mile long—a nearly incredible size if true. On 14 of the 18 occasions in which cigars were photographed FATE On several occasions, though not confirmed by photographic evi- dence, cigars have been seen with giant fins and with three bands or rings around them but with no windows.

On the 19 recorded photographs, they have appeared as single ob- jects 17 times and as surrounded by discs and domed saucers in groups on two occasions. These objects appear to be blunt on one end and tapered on the other end, which fits the descrip- tion given them in Europe where they. are called “carrot-topped” objects. 1957.

They have been pho- tographed over mountains, over the Gulf of Mexico, through solar telescopes in Japan and, on at least one occasion, have been re- ported as spinning. The cigars have been observed time and time again to fly with short bursts of movement, accom- panied by explosions and black smoke and leaving long exhaust

S CAMERA’S EYE ANALYSIS trails, somewhat like a rocket ex- haust and three times the length of the cigars themselves. On launching or receiving small discs and dome-shaped saucers the cigars have been seen to assume a vertical position. In nearly all observations they have remained at an extremely high altitude and never at tree- top or house-top levels. Many times they have been reported as cylinders, spindles, bullets, tubés and torpedoes. ’ They have been seen with “win- dows”—usually square ones. CRESCENT-SHAPED OBJECTS 6 Ee OBJECTS have been pho- tographed on 15 different oc- casions, five times with movie cam- eras. One of this type was among the nine seen by Pilot Kenneth Arnold way back in 194.7 near Mt. Ranier which resulted in the first nationwide publicity and added the word “flying saucer” to our lan- guage. The crescents have been photo- graphed in groups on six occasions and as single objects on nine. They have been shot in formation on three occasions. They have been seen above mountain tops and near the ground. They have been chased by jets and have left exhaust trails and shock waves on three occa- sions. 83 UFO Photographs By Months (1883 through 1961) Months Occasions Photos Objects January 11 16 is) ee February 9 9 17 March 17 16 42 April 16 17 34 May 16 32 35 June 11 12 20 July 25 51 49 August © 16 19 55 September 14 15 22 October 8 8 10 November 13 22 19 December 12 11 15 UFO MOVIES BY MONTHS (1883 through 1961) January 3, February 1, March 4, April 2, May 2, June 2, July 4, August 4, September 2, October 1, November 1, December 2, No Month Given 2 (Total Movies—30 movies) Crescents have been tracked by radar despite a possibly unique ability to change shape which sug- gests they might be non-solid.

Three times the crescents have been photographed with three tails but in most cases they have only two tails—one at each end of the crescent.

SATURN-SHAPED UFOS PECs SHAPED like the Planet Saturn are well-con- firmed by visual sightings, although they have been photographed only twice to my knowledge—over Japan and over Trinidade Island off Brazil. The Trinidade case is well doc- umented. The object was seen by hundreds of sailors aboard a ship and by dozens of natives ashore. It was picked up on radar and tracked on a theodolite twice. It was photographed five times by a civilian photographer and once by a Navy sergeant ashore. The films and description were attested to by the Brazilian Navy, the Bra- zilian Congress and released by the President of Brazil himself. Many other observations of sim- ilar objects, having rings around them and surrounded by a greenish halo have been brought to my at- tention but without photographic evidence to back them. GREEN FIREBALLS AND RED SPRAYING OBJECTS ae OBJECTS have been photographed only twice, once
Page 86
86 ‘over Scandinavian countries. The Green Fireballs are known for their tremendous sizes and speeds as well as their brilliance. Their vivid colors range from _ bright blue-green to brilliant green. They are mostly seen at night, when there is no light for them to be reflecting, so it can be assumed they emit their own light. They ap- pear to be ball-shaped or globular and are seen over hundreds or thousands of square miles. They do not maneuver, though they have been seen to perform an upward curve. Most times they follow one path and cannot stop or follow another object. They can- not hover and are visible about as long as a meteor—from eight to 40 seconds. The green fireballs are very large, possible 50 to 200 feet in diameter—since they have been seen from great distances. They are not to be confused with meteors, however. They are silent at low altitudes, do not ap- pear during periods of meteor ac- tivity, leave no fragments upon hitting the Earth (at least none have been found), appear in large numbers over a short span of time, have been observed flying in pairs, and their green color is almost un- known in meteoric history. The Red Spraying Objects, on the other hand, appear to be around three feet in diameter, have the ability to hover, and then ex- FATE plode with a blinding light. Many researchers believe that these ob- jects, along with the Green Fire- balls, are simple, pilotless, and self- consuming signal objects. The Red Spraying Objects and the Green Fireballs may be quite a different kind of thing than the objects we have been describing, of course. They may be natural physical phenomena of space, just as meteors are, although different from them. If so, no intelligence would be involved in their creation or destruction in our atmosphere. It is noteworthy that the con- ventional UFOs “watch and wait” and appear to be intelligently di- rected whereas a similar judgment cannot be made of the Green Fire- balls or the Red Spraying Objects _ unless they exist only to “signal.” LIMITATIONS CF THIS STUDY Poe ARE MANY handicaps for a serious research study on UFOs in addition to those of time and money. There is official censorship and ridicule, fantastic claims by some “contactees”, press and public apathy and the urge to conformity. I have not been able to obtain prints or copies of many foreign and U. S. photographs or movies. The statistical data process, visual observations even of reliable wit- nesses, and photographic evidence are all subject to human error.

CAMERA’S EYE ANALYSIS Despite over 14 years of inves- tigation and evaluation the United States Air Force has discovered no evidence. to confirm the exis- tence of so-called “flying saucers” —so it says. To this I can honestly and sin- cerely say “look again’, especially at UFO maneuverability evidence (a code for which was not included on the AF’s IBM punch card sys- tem), UFO electro-magnetic inter- 87. ference evidence, and the UFO photographic evidence of the past 20 years. If the saying “a picture is worth a thousand words” is a good one, and I believe it is, then the record speaks for itself. And the record indicates, with worldwide reports of strange aerial phenemena con- tinually being seen and photo- graphed, that we are not alone in the universe! 2s VINDICATED BY FIRE By Raymond C. Otto N 1951 Mr. David Randall was in charge of Charles Scribner’s Sons rare book de- partment in New York City. For some time he had been try- jing to persuade the crotchety old owner of one of the 13 or- iginal copies of the Declara- tion of Independence to sell the manuscript. Finally the owner phoned him on a Friday afternoon in March and said he was willing to sell. The next morning Mr. Randall triumphantly drove to Greenwich, Conn., and offered the old gentleman a check for the document, which was in a beautiful morocco slipcase. Noting that the check was not certified, the old gentleman protested, “That’s no way to do business. And what were you going to do with my irreplace- able document until Monday?” “T was going to take it to my house,” replied Randall. “Might easily burn down,’ said the old gentleman. “Well, it hasn’t for years,” Randall declared. “Young man, that won’t stop it from burning down tomor- row,” the old gentleman said. “Tell you what, I’ll bring the document in to Scribner’s by train on Monday, insured all the way, and then you will hand me a certified check.” “How cautious can you get?” Randall muttered to himself as he drove away empty-handed. When the old gentleman walked into Mr. Randall’s of- fice on Monday morning he was vindicated to learn that just 12 hours earlier Mr. Ran- dall’s 125-year-old house in Larchmont, N. Y., had eanen fire and burned. 125

STRANGE ROSE-COLORED _ VISITOR What was the weird thing that entered our kitchen by squirming between the slowly moving blades of the wall fan? S Bess INCIDENT took place the 11th day of June, 1960*, in Mobile, Ala., sometime between 12:00 noon and 1:45 P.M. My husband and I were sitting at our dining table talking; he at one end with his back toward the living room, I at his left. From my position I had a complete view of the kitchen and of the greater part of the living room while he, because * The original notes pertaining to this event were made the day it happened and were dated that day; however at some later date ink had inadvertently been spilled over them almost obliterat- ing the date. Because of this I cannot be certain whether it was the 11th or 12th of June_ 1960. I remember it as the 1ith but memory is fallible, hence this footnote. 88 of a built-in section (for holding china) at his right, could see only the dining area immediately in front of him and a very small portion of the kitchen. Our dining area and living room were not separated by a wall but were actually one large room. We were discussing the various places we had seen in our travels, the cities in which we have lived and the streets in these cities. Be- fore us, spread out on the table lay a street map and a few papers. Suddenly the kitchen lighted up a bright rose color. It flashed out all at once and was so startling that we both noticed it.
Page 89
“What was that?” my husband exclaimed. I already had looked toward the kitchen and was too surprised and astonished at what I saw to answer him. In my excitement I had for- gotten that from where he sat he could not see into the kitchen. There, wiggling its way through our kitchen wall fan, built into an opening in our kitchen wall, was a rose-colored light! But this was not like any light I ever had seen before. -It had only a vaguely defined shape and its light was contained within this shape. Its shape was difficult to define because it appeared to be undergoing a kind of contortion. Then I saw that it was making an entrance between the blades of the slowly moving fan and that it was turning as the fan turned! To me it had the appearance of scuttling frantically into our kitchen. This observation has nothing to do with the fact, I only mention it as one of my reactions accompanying my astonishment. Once through the fan, it rose in- stantly to the ceiling and seemed to “cling” for a brief second to the unlighted electric light fixture in the center of the kitchen ceiling. At this time it gave forth no rose-color light and had I not been watching it so closely I might never have know it was there. Only a faint circular outline, almost transparent, showed. Then, almost too fast for the eye 89 to follow, it rushed headlong into the dining area and struck the wall at the point where the ceiling and wall join. It struck silently but with such force that it thickened and became for an instant elon- gated. During this infinitesimal period of “thickening” it appeared to have more substance and I could see it much clearer. In- the twinkling of an eye, it “bunched itself” into a tight knot, becoming almost round, then once again it took on its flat, circular shape and sped into the living room, still traveling against the ceiling. Spellbound, I leaned forward to watch it. Our living room was dark- er than the kitchen or dining area and it was much easier seen in there. The walls were painted Hunter’s Green, the venetian blinds were drawn and both doors leading out were closed. Its circular shape now appeared emphasized as it came to rest just off center of the ceiling and its rose color (perhaps pink describes it more accurately at this point) again became evident. However, it never attained the brilliance it first’ dis- played at its moment of entrance when I first saw it and when my husband noticed its reflected light. I could.now see that it appeared to spin or swirl about inside its invis- ible covering. It was about two- and-one-half to three feet across at the widest part of its circle. I was
Page 90
go unable to hazard a guess as to its thickness but it appeared to be ex- tremely thin compared to its width. I now noticed that some portions of it showed richer rose color and at these places I could distinctly see two streaks of brilliant rose color move in a counter clockwise direction in a spurting, flowing mo- tion. This*deeper rose color was in evidence only in two places and not at opposite sides of the circle but both on the same side and per- haps a foot apart. They were visible only near its outer rim, appearing to be about four to six inches from its edge. The remainder of it glowed a soft pink during this time —a matter of perhaps five to 10 sec- onds. As I continued to gaze at it, still too surprised to say a word, it flashed a brighter rose color all over and suddenly vanished. I turned to my husband — only to find, to my chagrin and ever- lasting regret, that after the first vivid flash he again had immersed himself in his papers and maps and had been totally unconscious of any- thing unusual. I asked him how he could possi- bly have missed its passage over our heads. “T just didn’t know anything was there,” he answered. No doubt this was easy to do since it moved sound- lessly and was almost invisible at that point in its travels. Yet during FATE this time I had been sitting across from him gazing open-mouthed ceil- ingward! “T never noticed what you were doing,” he added. Because of my intense preoccu- pation and lack of foresight and be- cause of the short time involved, I had failed to have a witness to the most amazing sight I have ever seen. I wish to add here another inci- dent that may possibly be a sequel to this one — on the other hand, it may have no connection whatso- ever. The following Monday morn- ing at 7:20, after my husband had left for work, I opened our bath- room door and found the light burn- ing. This was not unusual, quite frequently we forget to turn it off. However, as I stepped through the doorway the light began slowly to dim. I stood and watched it dim very slowly until it was gone. This dimming-out process was not at all like that caused by a faulty con- nection or the result of one’s turn- ing off the switch. It dimmed out much, much slower. I reached and turned on the switch; the light came on again quite naturally. My emotions were certainly not geared at this time to note the un- usual.and read something into an ordinary occurrence that was not there. In spite of the strange visi- tor we had received that week, neither of us had noticed anything at all unusual afterward in the
Page 91
OUR STRANGE ROSE-COLORED VISITOR gt household. However, neither of us looked for the unusual so perhaps it would have had to be obvious for us to notice it. see O MUCH for the facts; now for “ my theory. It is my belief that this circular light was controlled; whether remotely or within itself, is the question. I am inclined to believe the latter and here are two of my reasons: (1.) Its manner of entrance — between the fan blades. To me this seems to point to a physical being with some degree of intelligence plus a great deal of dexterity. (2.) The speed with which it moved unerringly to the open end of the kitchen and thence into the living room. This, I believe, illus- trates its desire to hide which in turn presupposes an intelligence of some kind moved probably by fear. Suppose this thing was both in- telligent and fearful. Fearful of what? The thing of which it was afraid must have held more terror for it than we did, else why take refuge with us. Was this thing it feared radar? Or was it afraid of something else? Was our abode simply a case of “any port in a storm?” Or was it merely on a “cosmic sight-seeing tour?” Because of its manner of en- trance, working its way in between the fan blades, it must have been physical —yet it could take on both visibility and invisibility. That is one for the physicists! From whence did this thing come? That vague area designated as outer space? Or does it and its fellow beings inhabit this planet invisible and unnoticed? Have there been other instances comparable to this and have they been reported? Being basically a practical mind- ed individual, I have one more question. Was any UFO tracked by radar and subsequently lost over Mobile, Ala., on June 11, 1960, at about the time of day I saw this thing? Like most of my fellow citizens, I do not enjoy being held up to scorn and ridicule; therefore, I did not report it to any agency or in- dividual at the time it took place. Only now have I gained sufficient moral courage to report it for the first time, here. ~ FAKE INTO FACT a RY OBTAIN publicity for their annual ball, students began dig- ging trenches near their art college in Leicester, England, in the pretense of haying made an important archeological discovery.

W. T. STEAD’S MYSTIC MESSAGES To his astonishment, the pen automatically wrote intimate details of the masher’s attack upon his woman friend. by Paline San HE .RED-BEARDED, somewhat stoop-shouldered editor of the Review of Reviews sat wearily at his cluttered desk. His Mowbray House office in The Strand seemed a hectic place, and William Thomas Stead found himself unable to concentrate on his editorial work. He had just remembered that here it was late Monday afternoon; on Wednesday he was to dine with a woman friend, provided she had returned to London from Hasle- mere where she had spent the week-end. 92 Wondering what her plans might be, Stead took up a pen and placed it on a sheet of paper. Though his personal interest in-psychic research had monopolized most of his adult life, he never had had a “psychic experience.” Now, to his utter dis- belief, his hand wrote of its own ac- cord, this message: “T am very sorry to tell you I have had a very painful experience of which I am ashamed to speak. T left Haslemere at 2:27 P.M., in a second-class carriage in which there were two ladies and one
Page 93
gentleman. When the train stopped at Godalming, the ladies got out and I was left alone with the man. After the train started he left his seat and came close to me. I was alarmed and repelled him. He re- - fused to go away and tried to kiss me, I was furious. We had a struggle. I seized his umbrella and struck him, but it broke and I was beginning to fear he would master me when the train began to slow up before arriving at Guildford station. He got frightened, let go of me, and before the train reached the platform he jumped out and ran away. I was very much upset. But I have the umbrella.” Stead was flabbergasted, and not a little apprehensive that his sub- conscious mind was responsible for the message. He wrote his friend a hasty note, relating the circum- stances, and added how sorry he was about the embarrassing occur- rence. “Be sure to bring the man’s um- brella on Wednesday,” he added. This note he dispatched with his secretary to the lady’s London home. Her reply arrived in record time. It expressed consternation that any- body should know about her ex- perience with the masher; in fact, the lady had made up her mind that no one ever would know. “T will bring the broken umbrella, but it was my umbrella, not his,” she amplified. Stead afterwards 93 stated that this was the only dis- crepancy in the amusing and amaz- ing, psychically received message. Although he always had taken an interest in psychic research, it had begun really to dominate his per- sonal life a few years before. Shortly after founding the Review of Reviews, he had written to F. W. H. Meyers, declaring that in the Proceedings of the Society for Psy- chic Research there was indeed a bonanza of newsworthy material. If properly employed, he knew it would yield him a Christmas issue full of “authentic apparitions to astound all readers.” In his letter to Meyers he added that he would be delighted to avail himself of any assistance they could give him. “To present a ghost to my public is a task of difficulty which I must not dispute to another, however much able and more competent he may be than IJ from the scientific point of view.” This from the man who, when editor of the Pall Mall Gazette, had introduced modern journalism as we know it today, including the interview and person- ality profile, the man whose edi- torial campaigns against vice had landed him in prison for “dealing in pornographic journalism!” The more Stead practiced auto- matic writing the more amazing he found the results. The strange gift he had so suddenly discovered brought messages from friends liv-
Page 94
94 . ing at a distance, as well as from persons long dead. Many persons laughed at him, but thousands of others. realized that W. T. Stead possessed strange powers. In 1892 he visited his close friend and associate, Lady Henry Somer- set, at Eastnor Castle, the family seat of the Somersets. There he met a young American woman whom he refers to simply as “Miss E.” Two years before, and quite by coinci- dence, he had met her closest friend, Miss Julia Ames, also an American girl. “Miss E” now told him Julia had died soon after they made a pact that the one dying first would appear to the other, in order to prove the “reality of the world be- yond the grave.” Knowing of Stead’s absorbing interest in spirit- ualism, “Miss E” told him how Julia had appeared to her in Chi- cago, rousing her from sleep. She appeared to be “radiantly happy,” but had remained silent before van- ishing. The second time Julia’s spirit appeared was at LEastnor Castle. This time “Miss E” was wide awake and saw her friend ap- pear “as distinct and as real as in life.” Again no spoken word passed between them. Now that “Miss E” was again visiting at Eastnor, she hoped Stead would try to contact the dead Julia. The next morning before break- fast, in his own room, Stead’s hand wrote a message that was “brief FATE and to the point.” Its text was, “Tell her to remember. what I said when last we came to Minerva.” Stead protested that this message was silly, but his pen wrote insist- ently that “Miss E” would under- stand. “T felt so chagrined at the ab- surdity of the message,” Stead says, “that for a long time I refused to deliver it.” When he finally did relay the message, “Miss E” exclaimed that it couldn’t have come from anyone but Julia. But how, Stead demanded, could she “come to Minerva?” It just did not make sense. “Miss E” explained that shortly before death, Julia had facetiously applied the name of the ancient goddess to Miss Frances Elizabeth Williard, the founder of the Wom- en’s Christian Temperance Union. She had even presented Miss Wil- lard with a “Minerva” cameo brooch. The two young women had called her by that nickname to the exclusion of all other names. The message received by Stead was sub- stantially identical with one given by Julia the last time “Miss E” and “Minerva” had visited her when she was on her death-bed. “Here again,” Stead points out, “there was a slight mistake. Min- erva had come to Julia, instead of Julia going to Minerva, but other- wise, the message was correct.”

W. T, STEAD’S MYSTIC MESSAGES - 95 ‘This first message touched off a series of automatically written com- munications from Julia. Wherever psychic research is of interest this collection of the “Julia Letters” is believed unshakable proof that there is life beyond the tomb. One of the most interesting and most meaningful of the “Julia Let- ters” to come to Stead automatical- ly, is dated August 11, 1893: “T want to tell you more about the experiences I had when I passed over ... I will tell you how I felt when I first saw my body lying in bed. I ought to have told you that when I found myself standing by the bedside, I was completely dressed. I did not recognize myself as being anything different from what I had always been. I felt just the same. I had on the same kind of clothes and was, so far as I could see, just the same — nothing alter- ed. .. .The first thing that made me see that I was different was dis- covering my old body lying on the bed. It seemed so strange to see myself lying quite still and to know that I was not myself but only the cast-off chrysalis of my real self. When I looked at it as it lay there, I felt somewhat sorry, for I had been in the old thing for 30 years or more, and when you have worn a dress or a body so long, you kind of feel attached to it. And there it lay, quiet and silent and senseless, and I looked at it and wondered what would happen, now I was outside of it. I was just a bit frightened, but I was consoled be- cause everything seemed so familiar. It was just the same as it always was. But it was not till the door opened and Miss Willard entered and began to cry over my old body that I really began to realize that I was really what you call dead, and yet I was never more alive in my whole existence.” After the first “Minerva” mes- sage, Stead and “Miss E” decided to try for further communications. This time they sat at opposite ends of a long table. After his hand had written answers to various ques- tions, Stead asked Julia if, as a further test, she would use his hand to recall to her friend’s memory some incident in their lives of which he himself had no knowledge. His hand wrote: “Ask her if she can remember when we were going home together, when she fell and hurt her spine.” - “That fills the bill!” Stead laugh- ed triumphantly. “I never knew you had met with such an acci- dent!” But “Miss E” was completely be- wildered, and protested to Julia that never in her existence had she injured her spine in any way. Nevertheless, Stead’s hand con- tinued: “I am quite right. She has forgotten.” The entity explained how, seven years before, at Streator,

UNIVERSITY BOOKS 845 Chicago Ave. Evanston, Ill. FATE Ill., when the young women were returning home from their office on a Saturday afternoon, “Miss E” slipped on the snow-glazed curb- stone “opposite Mrs. Bull’s house.” “Miss E” was overwhelmed. Now she recalled the mishap, and re- membered that the resultant bad back had kept her in bed for days. In 1897 Stead’s first volume of the collected letters was issued. This work was entitled Letters from Julia, and subtitled Light from the Borderline, received by automatic writing from one who has gone be- fore. In 12 years it enjoyed seven printings, and it was translated into French, German, Italian, Russian, and Hindustani. There were also editions in the Scandinavian langu- ages and Greek. Stead crossed the Atlantic for the first time in October, 1893, becom- ing the most talked-about foreign visitor in years. In Chicago he be- came enmeshed in deep trouble when in addressing a ladies’ club he stated “the obvious fact that the idle and worthless rich” are infinite- ly more disreputable than the most depraved women. A month later, he was interview- ed by the Chicago Sunday Tribune about his forthcoming newspaper, the Daily Paper. The interview was as astonishing as it was passion- ately honest. When asked about his activities in psychic research, Stead said: “That reminds me that

It is publishing for the first time in the world’s history an interview be- tween two persons who were sep- arated from each other by a dis- tance of 800 miles, who had no wire or material means of communica- tion . . . In my sample paper I shall publish an interview with Lady Brooke . . . on the future of the British aristocracy. When that interview took place, I was in a railway carriage at Dover and Lady Brooke was with her sister, the Duchess of Sutherland, at Dun- robin Castle, in the extreme north of Scotland. I interviewed Lady Brooke by my automatic, telepathic hand, without having to go to the trouble of telegraphing to her, or writing to her, or asking for the privilege.” “How on earth did you accom- plish this?” “T simply took a pencil in my hand, spread a sheet of blank paper on a blotting pad in the railway carriage, and in thought addressed Lady Brooke the questions which I should have asked her if she had been sitting on the opposite side of the carriage. Then my hand, with- out more ado, wrote out her answer to each question. Then I asked an- other question, and she answered it, and so on, just as if the two parties . . . had been face to face in the ordinary journalistic fashion.

FATE the interview was finished, I put it in my poeket, and on arriving in London an hour later, I found a letter from Lady Brooke addressed to me, which had arrived that morn- ing. When I opened it, I found it contained in brief, the substance of the remarks which she had made to me, writing through my hand. When I sent a proof of the inter- view down to her, she returned it without correction or erasure, stat- ing that it was marvelous — the perfect accuracy with which I had tapped her mind and had-suc- ceeded in procuring a written record of her thoughts. The only criticism she had to make was that she wish- ed I had added something more — an amplification of what she had already said. This. also corres- ponded with my own impression, having got so sleepy from fatigue in travel from Switzerland all night, that I didn’t go on with it.” In the early spring of 1912, Stead wrote in his magazine about an in- vitation he had received to speak in America. “The committee has been kind enough to ask me to address a meeting held under their auspices on ‘World’s Peace,’ in Car- negie Hall, New York, on April 21st, at which President Taft and others will be among the speakers. I expect to leave by the Titanic on April 10th...” Stead left home, radiating en- thusiasm at the size and magnifi-

Mrs. Wil- liam Shelley, a fellow passenger who survived the wreck of the Titanic, gives us this eye-witness account of Stead’s last hours: “He was one of the very few who were actually on deck when the ice- berg was struck. I saw him soon after and was thoroughly scared, but he preserved the most beautiful composure. Whether he stayed on board or sought safety by leaping into the sea I cannot tell, but I do know he faced death with philo- sophic calm.” In 1914 Stead’s collected “Julia Letters” came out in a new, en- larged edition and were entitled After Death: A Personal Interview, The Preface had been written by Stead in 1909 and was originally in- tended by him for inclusion in a second volume which never was realized. However, the later “Julia Letters,” which Stead did not have the opportunity to edit and revise, were considered to be of such in- estimable value that his daughter included them in the new edition exactly as her father had received them. In the Preface, Stead voices not only his personal views which were the result of a lifetime of probing, but also the views of people every- PROVE YOUR PSYCHIC POWERS WITH A PLANCHETTE!

Put the per- centage of possibility as low as you like; if there be even the smallest chance of its truth, it is surely an obvious corollary from such an ad- mission that there is no subject more worthy of careful and scien- tific examination.” Always the hard-boiled news- paperman who wanted above all to face facts, Stead was also the rebel with a cause on behalf of the down- trodden, the exploited, the mis- understood. Frederick Whyte, his distinguished biographer, sums up Stead’s absorption with psychic re- search thus: “Whatever view we take of this phase of William Stead’s life, it would be foolish to attempt to di- vorce it from his general career — to treat it as an aberration from the main current of his character .. . He was a spirit who refused to re- main in the prison of his senses. The passion to penetrate the mys- teries of the unseen sprang from the same qualities as those which made him the incomparable journalist he was.” :

One Sun- day there I had some visitors, my mother and a young couple, Phil and Bertha, very nice people and very much in love with each other. We all sat in my comfortable kitch- en talking over cups of coffee. At a moment when Phil was tell- ing us a joke and laughing heart- ily I looked up at him and saw a light, like the flame of a big candle, hovering over his head. I looked to the others but apparently nei- ther Mother nor Bertha saw the flame. “Phil, are you all right?” I could not but ask him. Phil laughed in his usual man- ner, “Why sure, I am all right. What a fancy to ask!” But the light was still there. I was puzzled and upset. Next day I told Mother but she only shrug- ged her shoulders and tried to ex- plain it in some natural way. For the next two weeks I was very busy and even out of town for several days, thus I didn’t talk with my friends. Soon after my return one afternoon I was standing at the window when I had the feeling that somebody was in the room. I turned around and there was Phil. “Hallo, Phil,” I said. “I didn’t hear you come in.” “Hallo,” he answered. “I came to ask you to do me a favor. Please help Bertha. Stand by! Stand by! I cannot talk to her. She needs help badly.” “Won't you sit down?” I offered him a chair. “What’s happened?” “Bertha will tell you. I must go now.” He left the room in an ap- parent hurry.

She doesn’t believe in clairvoyance, precognition, or any of the extra-sensory talents I have exhibited most of my life. When she was younger and at home she saw so many evidences of them all in my life that she couldn’t deny them. But now she is more sophis- ticated and has decided such things cannot be. So she has put them out of her thoughts. Now, when confronted with evidence of my ESP ability she dismisses. it as one more “nutty” account from her “neculiar” sister.

Actually Arline was shipped out secretly from Seattle on a transport carrying 1500 troops and only four or five civilians on the night of August 8, 1944. Because I have been clairvoyant all my life I wasn’t too startled on August. 10, when I seemed to hear my mother, Betty, talking to me. She has done it before. I was sit- ting quietly in my New York City home when she called my name.’ “Marian,” she said. I replied, “Yes, Mother. It is nice to hear your voice.” But what my mother said was alarming. “Pray,” she said. “Some- thing dangerous is happening at sea. Pray quickly.” “To whom is it happening?” I asked. “Your sister,’ Mother replied. At 10:30 that night I told my friend, Dorothy Goetz, “Something dangerous is happening to my sis- ter. She seems to be at sea, al- though I had no idea she was being shipped out anywhere. I’m getting messages to pray for her.” “Youre having hallucinations, Dorothy said. “No, I’m not, something terrible is happening,” I told her. By then I was beginning, to feel apprehen- sive, not only because of the words Mother had spoken but because I seemed psychically to be undergoing great tension myself. I never before felt so choked-up, so stifled. And I got no relief throughout the night. I spent a terrible night. At 5:00 A.M. the ghost of my mother appeared to me. I could see her plainly and heard her say, “Bombs are falling where Arline ”

Keep on praying.” I prayed harder than I ever prayed before. It wasn’t until about 8:00 o’clock, three hours later, that the choking sensation stopped. Then I knew that whatever had oc- curred in connection with my sis- ter was over. But naturally my apprehension didn’t lessen, for I had no way of learning what had happened to Arline. I shook the whole day. Gradually as the days passed I became quieter, but for two months I heard nothing from my sister. Finally, I wrote to the War De- partment. They answered that Arline had landed safely in Hawaii. Eventually I heard from Arline, It had taken her ship an entire month to travel from Seattle to Pearl Harbor, because of its con- stant zigzagging to avoid bombers. Arline described their frightening second night out from port—the night of August 10th. She said the ship was bombed all night and un- til 8:00 o’clock the next morning by Japanese war planes. “The bombs were practically raining from the sky,” she wrote, “but they never touched the ship. It was almost as if invisible hands caught each bomb and diverted it into the water. It was so amazing it was unbelievable.” Arline doesn’t know whose invis- ible hands to credit for this. It is the one experience of her life for which she has no possible way of accounting. For, you see, she doesn’t believe in ghosts. She doesn’t be- lieve in spirits. She doesn’t believe in clairvoyance. I’m not. sure she believes in pray- er.—New York, N.Y.

However, as the summer months approached the void my beloved friend had left in my life became more apparent. I lived across the street from a beautiful little park and every day had rejoiced to see .this girl coming across the park to visit me. She usually dressed in white slacks and white blouse and, although many people laughed -at her costume, which was not the mode in 1935, she was comfortable and I didn’t care what people said for I loved her. One insufferably hot day in July I went out to sit on my front porch. Something drew my eyes to the pathway in the park which Yvonne. always had used. There I saw the most beautiful sight! In her white slacks and blouse Yvonne was com- ing up the path toward me. I ran until I was out of breath. I felt I couldn’t get there fast enough to be able just to touch her. And it was true! I couldn’t! For just as I neared the place where we would meet she faded away. After the momentary shock of losing sight of her again I ran home and cried until I could cry no more. I even wondered if I was losing my mind, In the past few years I have be- come acquainted with the love and. power of the spirit world. I now know that Yvonne came back to show me that she still lives.—Wich- ita, Kan. VV WZ

EXPLORING INNER SPACE, Personal Ex- periences Under LSD-25, by Jane Dunlap. ‘Harcourf, Brace & World, Inc., New York, 1961. $3.75. An emotional thrill awaits the reader of Huploring Inner Space by Jane Dunlap. This reviewer, being’ the kind who gets seasick in a row- boat tied to a dock, is not in the least likely ever to expose herself to any of the hallucinogenic drugs; and there must be many others like me. We can be especially grateful to those who will undergo the rig- ors of taking mescalin, peyote, or LSD and afterwards share with us their fantastically deepened appre- ciation and increased awareness of life. Jane Dunlap does this in quite the most interesting book yet to appear on this new and fascinating subject. Jane Dunlap is the pseudonym for a well-known writer in the field of nutrition. Her previous books have been persuasive enough to send us off by the thousands to the health food stores in search of Ti- ger’s Milk; and now her mental adventures under the influence of LSD are reported in just as com- pelling a manner. Although vision-producing sub- BOOKS eee stances, such as peyote cactus and certain types of mushrooms, have been used in religious ceremonies for thousands of years, the public’ is just beginning to learn about the fantastic results obtained from them. Lysergie acid diethylamide (LSD-25) is a powerful new drug of this type which psychologists are finding useful in studying psychosis, in observing states of fear and an- ger, and in investigating the learn- ing processes involved in conditioning and abstract thinking. It is useful to parapsychologists because evi- dences of out-of-body experiences or extra-sensory perception are fre- quently indicated. Certain fortunate subjects, perhaps only one-fourth of those who take the drug, have profound mystical experiences. But because it produces effects very similar to schizophrenia, LSD should be used only under strict medical supervision, and Jane Dun- lap was careful to do this. Some persons under its influence ex- perience such frightening night- mares that it is necessary for the doctor to administer an antidote and bring them out at once. But others feel such a heightened awareness of life that their adventures are mys- tical and deeply spiritual. 109

And she writes of her five sessions under LSD in such a realistic man- ner that the reader seems almost to undergo her deeply inspiring ex- periences. Miss Dunlap tells us that people frequently ask her, “What is the value of LSD?” She answers, “For a few short but forever unforgettable hours, LSD gives one the love of God, the forgiveness of Christ, the humility of St. Francis, the intellect of Einstein, and the compassion of Al- lah, the All Compassionate. Have these experiences value? I believe they have.” The reader will go along with that. For he has been vicariously exper- jiencing these short unforgettable hours right along with her. Although tremendously rewarding, it has been exhausting. Miss Dunlap suggests that, “Some persons have found it best to read no more than a chap- ter at a time and allow at least a day to pass before starting the next.” Having read the entire book at two sittings, this reviewer is in- clined to agree with her, for at times there is almost a feeling of emotional indigestion as one lives with her through, for instance, the complete evolutionary cycle. During one afternoon’s session of LSD Jane Dunlap in her visions ranged through almost every living experience from the first amoeba to prehistoric mon- sters battling for existence, right on through to an insight into the lives of every ancient race and every present living creature. As Jane Dunlap saw visions of incomparable beauty, her mental perception also was accentuated. She understood effortlessly many

NEW BOOKS aspects of life which most of us, even with deep soul-searching, sel- dom have been able to put into ap- propriate words. In her chapter “The Caverns of the Soul’ she writes: “As exquisite diamond-studded mists of silver white intertwined with such beauty as to cause tears to rain down my cheeks, God seemed comfortingly near. And I was convinced that faith too was a part of every per- son’s soul regardless of how em- phatically some individuals might deny it. “While the pillar of radiant silver mists took its place beside the oth- ers, it came to me that faith alone was not enough. Nor was a belief in God enough or the holding to a high moral code or to any form of wor- ship or ritual. There must be a continuous spiritual growth, a con- stant searching deep within our- selves to free our intrinsic worth and our divine attributes, and a constant willingness to let our spir- itual feelings live and grow. There came a renewed and even more un- movable conviction that deep reli- gious experiences can be found only within ourselves . . I was con- vinced that if we were to know peace within ourselves, the need for spiritual development must be rec- ognized, appreciated, and stressed far more than it now is in our culture.”—Susy Smith.

FATE and newspaper writers and here is a reasonably complete version by Hurkos himself. He begins his account, appropri- ately enough, in the hospital room where he awoke after falling 30 feet from a ladder while painting a house. His skull was fractured, his shoulder broken, and he was uneonscious for three days. When he recovered consciousness, so he says, he had the Power whereas be- fore his accident he had had no psychic abilities whatsoever. According to personal testimony of responsible men, Hurkos does indeed have the Power. There seems to be no question about Peter Hur- kos being one of the most gifted clairvoyants living. Unfortunately, the book is not as good as Hurkos is in his own field and in a way it highlights the whole problem of a Psychic writing his autobiography. For, in a field as often suspect as this and as open to criticism from all sides, how can a man have the necessary perspec- tive to judge himself? Arthur Ford has shown us it can be done in Nothing So Strange but even he had the help of a gifted collaborator in Margueritte Harmon Bro. But Ford must be an excep- tional case. E For example, as is almost neces- sarily the case in dealing with a man whose career long has been public knowledge, one wonders about the omissions in this book. What about Hurkos’ tests at Duke University, for example? He does not once refer to them. From this omission one infers, rightly or wrongly, that they were either neg- ative or not strongly positive. What about his association with
Page 113
NEW BOOKS the Reverend Gilbert N. Holloway in Miami? He does not mention his name. He refers to his television sponsor, the Belk Department stores, only once, and nowhere men- tions William Henry Belk, Jr., who brought him to the United States - and financed his first research work in this country. And what about the sad fiasco of the Jackson Family murders, where Hurkos identified the wrong man as the murderer? These are but a few of the omissions we have noted. However, it is the general meth- od of autobiography that seems to make the most difficulty. One gets the impression of a man rushing madly about giving clairvoyant readings, solving crimes, finding or trying to find hidden treasure, with frequent assurances to us that he means to use his power only for good. : As a result, the work ends up almost as a book of wonders with one central hero. Hurkos admits he is wrong 13 per cent of the time, though how such a precise figure was calculated has not been made clear. True, the author warns us that he is not always right, and he describes sketchily several cases in which he failed to receive a clair- voyant impression, or was wrong. Many readers will be enchanted by this book and few can help but be impressed by the psychic abilities of the author. It reads rapidly and easily. And this may explain what seems to be its weakness. There is a certain shallowness and an almost complete lack of documentation. It is a slam-bang, rapid-fire presenta- tion which may well end up being tremendously popular.

ABOMINABLE SNOWMEN: Legend Come to Life, by Ivan T. Sanderson. Chilton Company, Philadelphia and New York, 1961. 540 pages, $7.50. In 1920, exploring near Mt. Ey- erest, Lt. Col. (now Sir) C. K. Howard-Bury observed beings mov- ing on a snowfield at 20,000 feet. Investigating, he found footprints thrice those of normal human size, which he attributed to a stray wolf. But his Sherpa porters claimed the tracks were those of a man-like creature they called Metoh-Kangmi; and in subsequent reporting this was mistranslated as “The Abom- inable Snowman!” This “inappro- priate term defined as “hominid, other than known kinds of modern man,” is shortened to “ABSM” by the author, “one of the world’s lead- ing naturalists” and holder of de- grees with honors from Cambridge University. Do ABSM’s exist? If so, where? The author’s surprising answers are presented with what probably is the fullest analysis of the subject yet written in English. Apart from primitive legend, he reviews re- ports of the last 75 years from a hundred isolated areas of the world, in which descriptions of the crea- tures “vary considerably” but gen- erally “fall very clearly into four main types.” These are: the Sub- human, a hairy man-sized Neander- thaler (?) found in the East, Eur- asia, and the Orient, said to some- times “trade” and mate with prim- itive humans; the Proto-Pigmy of the Orient, Africa, and, possibly,

As her study progressed, Miss Cerminara discovered that Cayce’s work formed the _ basis: for a new approach to the ancient philosophy of re- incarnation. This approach is the structural basis of her book. In Cayce’s files is probably the most remarkably documented body of psychic phenomena in the world. Here is an exciting and beautiful book, free from cant and self-delusion. For the first time, the profoundly moving facts and statements of Edgar - es Cayce’s readings have been assembled into a philo- sophical order.

The author admits that “the most suspicious part of the whole af- is the “fantastically small’ ed. Findings have been meager— witness the recent Hillary expedi- tion which returned with only an “ABSM scalp” and a “new” the- ory (to explain the controversial footprints), the theory, in the au- thor’s opinion, being as phony as the scalp. Aside from an “extremely old’ mummified hand, which experts acknowledge as “possibly” or “al- most definitely” that of a Neander- thaler, the physical, evidence con- sists of only “a few piles of excre- ment”—about which expert analy- sis is vague—and numerous tracks in mud, soft-soil, or snow. Some of these are said to “exactly match those of a Neanderthaler discovered in a cave in Italy;” and the most impressive are the footprints pro- tographed in 1951 by Eric Shipton. When his facts run out, the au- thor entertains with a mass of in- teresting but secondary scientific data. He might better have added certain references, as when an im- portant “official report” of the British Army is mentioned without source being given, and when a claim is made, but no reference cited, for “perfectly good ‘were- wolves’ ” on medical record in Nor- way. Sufficient to say, however, that the author (aided by drawings, maps, photos, Appendices, glossary and Bibliography succeeds in es- tablishing the ABSM as one of the greatest enigmas of this age.— Walter A.

IDAHO SEA SERPENT I have only my word as proof for this story, as my mother has passed on and my daughter, who was very young, only vaguely remembers the incident. One Fourth of July Mother and I decided to go to the park at the edge of our town of Idaho Falls, Idaho. We packed a small picnic lunch and took my daughter in her go-cart as she could not walk far. In this park is Tautphaus Lake, named for the owner of the park. This large lake empties into the Snake River, thence into the Columbia River and ultimately into the Pacific Ocean —which I hope makes my story cre- dible. We had started home and, as we were tired, we sat down on a large log on the bank of the lake. Suddenly we were amazed to see a creature we felt could not pos- sibly exist—a sea serpent. It was fully 25 feet long and about 18 inch- es in diameter, apple green in color, with dark irregular spots very much like those on a giraffe. Its head reared out of the water and con- stantly swung back and forth as it shot out a long, forked tongue to catch gnats and other insects. My greatest regret is that I had run out of film for my camera. I am an avid camera fan, but in those days all the stores closed on holi- days and it was impossible to get SEE the HUMAN AURA! a vital step toward 2 “PSYCHIC DEVELOPMENT Aura researchers have now developed a mechanical means of learning to see the human aura — permanent optically per- fect filters mounted in a pair of gog- gles adjustable to your head-size.

I shall never forget the creature’s long tongue with a bright red fork at the end. It had beady, shoe-but- ton eyes which flickered incessant- ly, and on its head were two short horns set rather close together. Suddenly it turned around and slithered up the bank, close to where we sat. We stared at it, pet- rified, afraid to breath. An eerie feeling came over me, a feeling that I was being examined by a denizen of another world. Finally, after about five minutes, the creature quickly swished around and dived into the water, churning it. Several years later we moved to our present home and I met a lady who was a friend of the people who owned the park in Idaho Falls. One day she mentioned the lake and I told her about seeing the sea ser- pent. She laughed and then explained that the old caretaker in the park had told a friend of hers about see- ing the creature. They made fun of him and told him he’d had one drink too many. “But, do you know,” she said seriously, looking me straight in the eyes, “his description was ex- actly the same as yours!”—Bess Bomar Wagner, Pocatello, Idaho. with DIMIJA Playing Cards that Tell Your Fortune.

REPORT FROM THE READERS “MYSTIC” EYE TEST RESULTS I wish to extend my _ sincere thanks and best wishes to the over 100 persons who corresponded with me in response to my letter in the October issue of FATE regarding a “Mystic Eye” test. Many of the letters received agreed not only with the date (Sep- tember), but actually pinpointed dates. As we all know, September has come and gone, and—thanks be to God—we still are at peace. I believe, however, that a possible explanation should be offered as to why the holocaust did not material- ize. First of all, one can assume that the use of such a device as the “Mystic Eye” in conducting psychic experiments can be influenced to a large extent by personal conviction. This will be, in most instances, re- flected in the subconscious and consequently will result in a false revelation. This obviously is true of results in which an exact date was pinpointed. Of the letters received, about 90% were in agreement as to the month, with about 20% naming the exact date. Of the 10% who did not agree, a large majority predicted a war at some later date, ranging from November and December of 1961 to the summer months of 1962. = Many of the persons who wrote to me were prone to place the blame for any coming war and also to predict the geographical cause. Many felt war would result from the current crisis over Berlin. How- ever, let us not forget many other “sore spots” exist around the globe —Cuba, the Congo, Formosa, etc. This was indeed an interesting experiment.

NO “TIME SENSE” I found Alson J. Smith’s excel- lent article, Dream Winners at the Track, especially interesting as it recalled a similar dream experience I had some years ago. In my dream I was walking down an unfamiliar street in Los Angeles when I hap- pened to turn and glance at the magazines on a corner newsstand. I paused a moment as a stack of evening newspapers on the sidewalk caught my eye. The large headline read: TWENTY GRAND WINS SWEEP- STAKES. When I awoke every detail of the dream was clear in my mind. Glanc- ing at the sports page in the morn- ing paper, I read that the horse “Twenty Grand’ was to run in the sweepstakes at Santa Anita the following Saturday. As some other dreams of mine proved to be precognitive, I felt that “Twenty Grand’ was a sure thing to win Saturday’s race. I told several friends of the dream and on Saturday we went to the track and confidently placed bets on our “dream horse.’ Sad to _ relate, “Twenty Grand” let us down and we decided precognitive dreams were strictly for horses. Two weeks later-I was walking down an unfamiliar street in Los Angeles when I chanced to glance at the magazines on a corner news- stand. I stopped as my eye fell on a stack of late evening papers. Staring up at me was the familiar headline: TWENTY GRAND WINS SWEEPSTAKES. Instantly I recalled that the street I was on, the news-

Says Parables in Bible Show Way To Get Rich “Many rich and successful men and women,” declares the author of a sensational 64-page book, “have no more brains or energy than av- erage. They are usually driven to success. Frequently they are so helpless they can’t quit even when they want to. Their money is made in spite of themselves.” The author gives a most astonish- ing formula for wealth and success based on long misunderstood para- bles in the Bible, a formula which he developed while making four for- tunes—two for other people and two for himself. Even while the formula was still incomplete, he made and lost fortunes. Now the formula is complete, he declares success can be won again by the average person and made perma- nent. The formula can be followed by rich or poor, in almost any job or business, in any honest trade or pro- fession. And it is so simple that the entire book can be read in three hours.-Its title is “Get Rich in Spite of Yourself.” The book has proved a sensation. Thousands ordered by sales mana- gers for their salesmen. A leading eastern publisher is offering a de- luxe store edition. It has been published in England, and a trans- lation has been published in Spain. A big newspaper syndicate wanted to run it serially in 60 newspapers. Many readers wonder why they did not discover the formula for them- selves, it is so amazingly right, so plainly practical and workable. The entire book, containing the complete formula, is offered for only one dollar. The publishers say “Read it for three hours, watch results for three weeks and if you are not delighted, return the book and get your money back.” The publisher, Grafe and Grafe, 633 South La Brea, Dept. 19-E, Los Angeles 36, California, will be pleased to send the 64-page book C.O.D. to any reader of this article — $1.00 cash with order, postage prepaid. Or it may be ordered C.O.D., but then the extra post office charges will be 64c. This liberal introductory offer may later be withdrawn; so order today, “Get Rich in Spite of Yourself.” (Advertisement) 123

Since then I have learned that the time element practically always is uncertain in precognitive dreams. Apparently the subconscious has no “time sense” as does the conscious mind,—Paul M. Vest, Santa Monica, Calif. CORRECTION While I appreciate the review of my wife’s and my book The Psy- chic Sense in your October issue, I hope you will allow me to point out a radical mistake in it. Nowhere do I in any way suggest that I treat patients by the use of extra- sensory perception. I make no claim to any more of this than everybody else has, and my work was (note the past tense) on the lines of depth analysis,: with a _ strongly Jungian bias—as indeed L.A.G. Strong suggests in the preface. Naturally, every clinician uses, or should use, his intuition to the best of his ability, but that is not at all what your reviewer suggests. Further, there is nowhere in the book any attempt to make a “suc- cess story’ out of case histories; these are used only as illustrations. And, besides, they are for the most part not mine but my wife’s, and in the majority of cases refer to her patients before we were mar- ried.—L. J. Bendit, Wheaton, Til. TALKING IN TONGUES I recently read a letter in your Magazine from a reader who said that the idea of speaking in other . tongues was absurd. I am writing to tell you all that he is wrong.

FATE I received the gift of the Holy Spirit and spoke in tnknown tongues when I-was 138 years old at the camp-meeting grounds in Lufkin, Tex. The Bible states that this is proof of the Holy Spirit. I also have proof beside my own experience. In the church I attended at the time was another person—a woman—who received the gift of the Holy Spirit and spoke in other tongues. I know that she understood no Spanish, but she spoke Spanish fluently for some minutes, praising the name of God. All I have to say is, read the second chapter of Acts sincerely, do as it says, and you will know I speak the truth. Many persons to- day wonder how to solve their prob- lems. Jesus Christ will solve any put to him.—D. L. Dykes, Palestine, Texas.

FATE. littled by occidental science and conventional religion, described by medical and psychological special- ists as a hysterical or exhibition- istic outburst, under pressure of extreme religious fervor or guilt complexes. The fact that most genuine “talkings” are preceded by a constriction, or swelling, of the throat—the rising of the “globus hystericus,” symptomatic of the on- set of more common hysterical spells, as well as some traumatic and convulsive seizures—substanti- ates these contentions—up to a point. But when it becomes evident that many of these subjects, who have not studied or been exposed to foreign languages, speak fluently with generally correct pronunci- ation, if somewhat impeded articula- tion, in a variety of foreign and ancient tongues, these strictly neu- rological diagnoses fall far short of full explanation. Talking in tongues has held an immemorial place in a number of the religions of the Orient and in some of the native cults of Africa, where the practitioners are predom- inantly male, as may be expected in view of the subordinate position of women among these peoples. In the few Protestant sects in the West which encourage or countenance the practice, practically all of the talk- ers are female, mostly between the ages of 16 and 35. Genuine talkings are delivered in some degree of light trance, and un- der tension so high that, in many cases, the quivering of the vocal cords imparts a very rapid tremolo to the voice—an effect that can be approximated by speaking with an electric vibrator held lightly against the larynx.

Obviously all such in- vestigations should be. conducted in a respectful, tactful and unobtrusive manner, with the permission of church officials. Due consideration for the welfare of subjects should preclude submitting them too often to what might possibly be danger- ous over-strain. A sustained program of earnest re- search might well produce highly important findings.

THE HENDERSHOT MOTOR I recall that you published an ar- ticle concerning Lester Hendershot and a device called the “Hendershot Fuelless Motor.” This, as I recall, was in 1957. Perhaps you are unaware that Mr. Hendershot died on April 19, 1961. There was very little mention of this, as his works here did not receive the publicity as in 1928. In this area researchers who in- vestigated his demonstrations con- sider me as the best informed on the subject, both in theory and con- struction of the devices used. I started working with Hender- shot in September, 1959, while he still was partially confined to a wheelchair following an industrial accident. I built the first model without his help, and this model produced about 10 watts of direct current. With improvement it de-

Other units I built produced or gen- ‘erated even more, A fact of even greater’ interest is that the device was not complete without the presence of Hendershot. I investigated this thoroughly by many. variations in the devices and operating conditions.—Arthur C. Aho, Glendale, Calif. “GREEN PAGES” IN FATE On the afternoon of October 13, 1961, I bought the latest issue of FATE and, on arriving home, put it aside to read later in the day. That night as I was reading an ar- ticle in the magazine I noticed that the pages were slowly turning green. I thought at first that the light I was reading by was being reflected off the walls on the pages. However, when I moved to another light and glanced at the pages again, they still were the same shade of green. I called my mother and asked her to tell me what color the pages were. She leafed through the mag- azine and stated that the pages were white. I, of course, thought my eyes were playing tricks on me and once more opened the magazine to the article I had been reading. As I read, I noticed that once again the pages were turning green. I thumbed through the book and found every page turning green. I again called my mother in and asked her to look at the pages, but this time I held the magazine. I expected her to say that the pages were still white—but she said that the pages were green. An-hour later three friends who were visiting us returned and we began discussing the green pages. 131 SPECIAL OFFER to FATE Collectors 5 Back Issues $1.00 We have on hand a few copies: of' each back issue listed below.

FATE For the next three hours’ we ..ex- perimented by examining ‘the pages:: in different rooms, under’ differ- ent lights. and lighting conditions— ° always with the same result. When anyone else held the magazine the pages were white. But when I held them they turned green. : When I resumed reading Fate the following night, I was prepared to see the pages turn green again, but to.my surprise they remained white, LEDER I wonder if other FATE readers: have had this experience.—Richard Dougherty, Los Angeles, Calif. “ADVENTURES OF THE MIND” Five years ago my brother and I stopped at your office and bought up the 34 back numbers of FATE which then were available. In these, my sans gold-en years, money could not buy the old copies unless they could be duplicated. You see, they contain for me—article by article— the infinitely cunning details of irrefutable evidence that the Cre- ‘ation is consciousness, singly known and purposed, the one fact that makes a jest of the almost certain accident of world demolition. The articles, necessarily garnered from a realm of thought quite un- orthodox, are a credit to the dis- cernment and honorable intentions of the editors. FATE merits weekly discussion classes in all the sub- jects touched upon in these record- ed “adventures of the mind.” I would like to see such organizations in every town and city; FATE should be published in every coun- try. The results not only might be earth-shaking—they might stop the earth from shaking.—Amy L. Beals, West Palm Beach, Fla.

CLARK PUBLISHING CO. 845 Chicago Ave., Evanston, Illinois FATE BIZARRE BLEEDING I wish to comment on the article “Houston’s Mysterious Blood Spots.” I have known an ulcer patient who bled from the face. The patient was a man about 45 years old, and the bleeding area was on the lower part of his face, about an inch and a quarter from the mouth corner. I myself took a tissue and wiped away the drops of blood which ap- peared to flow from a pore of the skin. When the bleeding ceased af- ter some 15 minutes, the skin on the part of his face from which the blood had issued was perfectly nor- mal looking—showing no wound or discoloration. Blood flowed from the man’s face at different intervals—as much as a couple of weeks apart. The flow also varied in amount. After a few months the bleeding ceased, al- though as far as I know he still has the ulcers. My solution is that the bleeding was due to capillaries which were weak and unable to hold the fluids, probably the result of some sort of bodily deficiency. With the subconscious mind hav- ing any ability to teleport, blood from the face easily could be de- posited elsewhere. I suppose almost anything can happen as the human mind is the most powerful instru- ment in existence—Guiula Mahaf- fey, Los Angeles, Calif. COMMENT ON CRUELTY : Your latest “I See By the Pa- pers” column in FATE is, as al- ways,. fascinating. But you tell of the cruel experiments on salmon— blinding them, plugging their nos- trils, making them climb nearly a (Continued on Page 145)

REPORT FROM THE READERS mile and a half—without any com- ment on this cruelty. I am aware that in this you are joined by a host of other editors who report every day on the tor- ture of animals without batting an eye. You also are in the company of a public whose nerves have been so dulled and deadened by these con- stant descriptions of sadism that nothing is thought’ of it. I am not asking you to censor your wonderful magazine, which I love, but I do wish you would add a word of condemnation of such ac- tivities—or at least use: the ad- jective “cruel” when it should be used.—Elizabeth Schwartz, New York, N.Y. WANTED: AN AURA VIEWER Along with a small group of oth- er scientists, I am beginning an in- vestigation We all are experienced psychic in- vestigators. Our goal is to quanti- tatively characterize the emanations comprising the aura. However, we need the co-operation of a good clairvoyant who lives in the Los Angeles area. Of course, we would be willing to pay for the services of such a person, but we do not know of one who is truly quali- fied. We need someone who actually can see the aura in its various forms and colors, and we invite in- terested and qualified persons to contact our group. We wish to assure applicants that they would not be subjects of investigation but would aid the in- vestigators in determining the ex- tent and nature of auras in the sub- jects studied—Leonard B.
