It all started with the Oct. 22, 1972, edition of the TATTLER when DeLouise criticized the claims and tactics employed by Owens. "He hurts the image of legitimate ESP," DeLouise charged. After reading the TATTLER story, Owens flipped his psychic wig and wrote a scorching letter to DeLouise and dared TATTLER to print it. In addition, he told TATTLER he would "hex" the Chicago Bears pro football team. In his letter, Owens writes to DeLouise: "You have to be stupid. You know, dumb. No one in this world, in their right mind, would take me on. Not after I have documented causing hurricanes with my mind; controlling radar installations with my mind; controlling pro teams with my mind..." "Mind you, we are speaking of documented before-the-fact actions. But you have chosen to insult me...as did Long John Nebel some years ago, then he lost his prime time radio show; then his wife committed suicide; then he got cancer...and, so, you will get what you richly deserve, as time goes by." "You have to be stupider and dumber than me, because my IQ is scientifically certified. I am a member of Mensa. You are not. You couldn't make it. So...you are a dumb bunny." "As a psychic, fella, you are a nothing. So you can make some predictions. Big deal. I can make predictions that come true; also I can control exploding volcanoes, control the weather, control military forces, heal people given up by doctors for dead, control pro football and basketball teams, control radar installations...and on and on..." Owens signed his letter "Ted Owens, PK man" evidently the initials stand for "psychokinesis," the ability to control matter with one's mind. DeLouise reacted calmly to the tirade in writing, he told TATTLER: "I think Mr. Owens smelled publicity; and that's fine. But, after reading his letter, I have even more doubts about him than before. He claims he can control all those things, but it appears he can't control his mouth too well." "As for his promise to hex the Chicago Bears, I'm laughing...since his so-called hex the Bears, who hadn't won a game, won three straight...some hex. With results like that, I hope he hexes me." Owens claimed he "doubled the power of P.K." against the Bears and they will continue "to lose games and lose men to injuries until DeLouise makes a public apology to me." Owens charged DeLouise with seeking publicity by attacking him in the first place. DeLouise, however, stuck to his original guns. "I am convinced that Mr. Owens' claims are a detriment to legitimate ESP. In his letter to me, he actually takes credit for doing terrible harm to another human being - Long John Nebel, the New York radio man. He claims he causes football players' injuries." "That's an easy claim to make, football players are always getting hurt. However, I do understand the power of the human mind and the forces of psychokinesis...it is entirely possible to do others harm in the manner Owens claims. Therefore, if he insists on taking credit for causing injuries, he should take credit for causing death, for deadly harm to the masses of people." One of Owen's followers, Bernard Brugger of Edmonton, Canada, wrote TATTLER with the Owens' point of view: "Mr. Owens' activities (as attacked by DeLouise) have been taken out of context and I can assure you that Mr. Owens' purpose is not, but absolutely not, to hex football teams, etc., for the sake of doing evil or forcing the teams' owners into hiring him for a handsome salary." "He is using his tremendous mind powers in order to make people aware of the tremendous mind powers to deliberately harm another individual...they taught their philosophies by example, they showed others the right way with their actions." "Owens, then, is teaching others that if the world doesn't take your word for something you believe, you have every right to cause injury, sickness and even death. This is simply not true nor logical." "I'm not giving this character any more of my time or energy...as far as I'm concerned, I've made my point and that's that." Caught In Gas War, This Station Owner Drives His Tanker To Rival Station And Says--'Fill 'Er Up' Gas station owner Hugh Maldonado, 7, told a fellow trucker, "Fill it up." "We've been friends for a long time, and we're old buddies," said Maldonado. "I told him we were in a gas war, and I didn't have any gas. I couldn't get a gallon for a customer. So I drove my tanker over to his station, and I told him to fill it up. He did." "I told him that the owner of the competing station wasn't his enemy, about fought a battle at the local level," said Maldonado. "We've been friends for a long time, and we're old buddies," said Maldonado. "I told him we were in a gas war, and I didn't have any gas. I couldn't get a gallon for a customer. So I drove my tanker over to his station, and I told him to fill it up. He did." "I told him that the owner of the competing station wasn't his enemy, about fought a battle at the local level," said Maldonado. Here's ↓ Owens' Reply === **Page: 2 of 2** Tattler editor... read this first = before forwarding = Owens Here's Owens' Reply Oct. 7, 1972 Mr. Joseph DeLouise, Psychic Chicago c/o National Tattler Hello.... A friend of mine in Chicago saw an article today, in which you say some nasty things about me in Tattler. You even have the gall to insinuate, as he explained it long distance, that I might be a 'frape and phony'. Let's take it one step at a time. You have to be stupid. You know, dumb. No one in this world, in their right mind, would take me on. Not after I have documented causing hurricanes with my mind; controlling radar installations with my mind; controlling pro teams with my mind; controlling pro football and basketball teams, control radar installations...and on and on... Did some John Doe, some years ago (then I lost his prime time radio show; then his wife committed suicide; then he got cancer)...and so, you will get what you rightly deserve, as time goes by. You have to be stupider and dumber than me, because my IQ is scientifically certified. I am a number of leaps. You are not. You couldn't make it. So...you are a phony. Second: (we've taken up the mental, now the psychic)...you are a psychic, folks, you are a phony. So you can make some predictions. Big deal. My prime predictions are the ones where I use my control abilities...hurricanes, control the weather, control radar installations, control pro teams, control doctors for dead, control pro football and basketball teams, control radar installations...and on and on. And all of it is documented. I have notarized, signed affidavits from clergymen, scientists, etc. So the truth is, that I have control abilities. You are a phony. I have hard work, I devote a certain time and places so that scientists and others could examine them with binoculars, etc. This, also, is proven. So...you have to be stupid to call me a frake or a phony. Third: why try to Hex football players to cause Chicago and others in the nose? My Hex over the Rams is. It's real. It's documented. It's real. It's real. I have notarized, signed affidavits from clergymen, scientists, etc. I can see a dirty, lousy, yellow coward. That is what I label you. Now, if you are a...go on down and get a source off in my Tattler with your crap. I am 52 years old. I am a minister, I am out of condition...but it would be a pleasure to give you a lesson in manners. Look at it any way you want to, folks...mental, psychic or psychic...you are a phony. You are from some nothing, of doing nothing, like Ted Owens. I am. And for your sake, you'd better believe it. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 47, Ona, Carolina, Virginia 23910 Owens God Bless, Tattler. In his letter, Owens writes to DeLouise: "You have to be stupid. You know, dumb. No one in this world, in their right mind, would take me on. Not after I have documented causing hurricanes with my mind; controlling radar installations with my mind; controlling pro teams with my mind; controlling pro football and basketball teams, control radar installations...and on and on..." Owens signed his letter "Ted Owens, PK Man" evidently the initials stand for "psychokinesis," with the ability to control matter with one's mind. DeLouise reacted calmly to the tirade in writing, he told TATTLER: "I think Mr. Owens smelled forces, heal people given up by doctors for dead, control pro football and basketball teams, control radar installations...and on and on." Owens signed his letter "Ted Owens, PK Man" evidently the initials stand for "psychokinesis," the ability to control matter with one's mind. DeLouise reacted calmly to the tirade in writing, he told TATTLER: "I think Mr. Owens smelled in the first place. DeLouise, however, stuck to his original guns. "I am convinced that Mr. Owens' claims are a detriment to legitimate ESP. In his letter to me, he actually takes credit for doing terrible harm to another human being - Long John Nebel, the New York radio man. He claims he causes football players' injuries. "That's an easy claim to make, football players are always getting hurt. However, I do understand the power of the human mind and the forces of psychokinesis...it is entirely possible to do others harm in the manner Owens claims. Therefore, if he insists on taking credit for causing injuries, he should be jailed for assault with a deadly weapon." TATTLER asked Owens why he made such claims and what reasons did he have for attacking pro sports. "I do what I do to make people aware of the existence of higher spiritual entities who are not happy with the trends of our society." Owens claims that, by attacking pro sports, he attacks a decadent level of society without doing great harm to the masses of people. One of Owen's followers, Bernard Brugger of Edmonton, Canada, wrote TATTLER with the Owens' point of view: "Mr. Owens' activities (as attacked by DeLouise) have been taken out of context and I can assure you that Mr. Owens' purpose is not, but absolutely not, to hex football teams, etc., for the sake of doing evil or forcing the teams' owners into hiring him for a handsome salary. "He is using his tremendous mind powers in order to make people realize that such powers exist and that space people exist, too." Brugger lauded Owens' healing ability and the positive side of the man who claims he caused Los Angeles Rams pro football quarterback Roman Gabriel's lung ailment earlier this year. In ending his defense of Owens, Brugger wrote: "What do you think of Moses? Didn't he use sinister powers as Ted Owens? Sometimes, in a spectacular way, you have to admit. Should he have been jailed, also?" DeLouise, upon reading Brugger's defense, said: "Some people will believe anything. I accept that Owens could be an excellent healer and psychic - I don't attack healers and psychics who use their abilities for beneficial purposes, but his reasons for putting the hex on football players and persons who he insults him are weak and a little sick. "Moses didn't pick on the little things, like Egyptian chariot racers, he reluctantly used his God-given powers only when absolutely necessary. Moses and Jesus and other Higher Beings who worked among the masses never used their powers to deliberately harm an other individual...they taught their philosophies by example, they showed others the right way with their actions. "Owens, then, is teaching others that if the world doesn't take your word for something you believe, you have every right to cause injury, sickness and even death. This is simply not true nor logical. "I'm not giving this character any more of my time or energy...as far as I'm concerned, I've made my point and that's that." In an effort to get expert opinion, TATTLER asked Jeanne Dixon, one of the world's leading prophets, to comment on the controversy: "I don't like to grace such a thing publicly, but all persons with the psychic gift should use their talents for constructive reasons. I use my talents to help people. I'm here to help and not destroy." Joseph DeLouise ... 'Owens can't even control his mouth'. Ted Owens ... His hex on the Bears didn't work.
