TED OWENS:

EARTH'S LINK WITH SPACE CRAFT?

He might well be the world's most controversial--and most unorthodox psychic. He is Ted Owens of Virginia, and he claims to have established a strong communication link with UFO intelligences.

BY BILL R. QUINALTY

Other-Dimensional forces are saturating this area," remarked the husky, middle-aged man sitting next to me in the car. His voice had a ring of authority and, during the two days ahead, I would become convinced myself of the existence of that mysterious "Other-Dimensional" (OD) power to which he referred.

The man?--Ted Owens. But he is not just an ordinary man--at least not by ordinary standards. He is a very controversial (and somewhat unorthodox) psychic! With an impressive background of ESP research and many related mental/psychic skills, plus experience gained from diverse professions, it was probably only natural that Ted would develop extraordinary psychic abilities. In ages past, he might have been called a prophet, magician or wizard. Today he is most widely known as "PK man." (PK stands for psychokinetic) From the psychic viewpoint, Ted Owens may have advanced far ahead of his time, because he not only predicts coming events but--with help from the UFOs--actually commands the forces of nature to bring them about on occasions! A virtual library of documented evidence and testimonials of 'OD' miracles now back him up.

Prior to our actual meeting, I had learned of the 'PK' man due to my interest in metaphysics and psychic matters. But merely reading was not enough. Determined to see for myself what type of person he really was--in addition to expanding new mental skills--I set out for Cape Charles, Virginia, in July of 1973.

I had expected the psychic to be a super-cool, slightly aloof personality. Reality proved otherwise--psychics are human too! In fact, had I not known

exactly where we were meeting, I could have mistaken this heavily-framed, casually-dressed gentleman in brown shirt and black trousers for an average "man on the street." Upon approaching closer, however, I instinctively sensed an aura of power radiating from him. I then realized I was in the presence of a dynamic person.

Ted Owens has accomplished nearly 500 proven "miracles"--true! That is simple fact, and the list grows longer daily. Though he does not "beat around the bush" about his accomplishments, one should be careful not to confuse this directness (typical of Ted) with arrogance.

A family man, who is quite fond of his loved ones, Ted says, ". . . My children and my wife . . . are my life. Without them, there would be no meaning."

His activities and lifestyle are unpretentious. One feels welcome in the friendly, warm atmosphere of the Owens' home--an old-style, but neat, two-story building, nestled in pleasantly simple surroundings.

With the fantastic psychokinetic strength he has developed throughout years of intense training, this master psychic claims to have literally unleashed powerful storms and caused hurricanes to change their course, when desirable; yet he has a subtle gentleness about him that is not always apparent but that is recognized and trusted by children. Both "Beau" (Bograde Owens, age 10) and "Teddy" (age 2½) regard their dad as a real pal. And, why not? He's a man who always finds time to lovingly hug or play around with his youngest son Teddy, no matter how busy his life may be.

Like any other human being, psychic or not, Ted has down-to-earth traits too. Among other things, he appreciates good food, ("Chef" Owens prepared a scrumptious breakfast on my second day there) and enjoys an occasional cold beer during hot weather. The Owens' are not petty, but simply likable people--as some folks might say, "neighborly." "Just make yourself at home," Ted admonished immediately after my arrival.

Ted's manner of speaking was notable. He talks with conviction and his brisk conversation reminded me of a radio or television commentator's style. After introducing ourselves, we shook hands and Ted motioned me to his car. As we stepped inside, I glanced back at the quaint combination drugstore-bus station I had just left, situated in the heart of downtown Cape Charles (a small, quiet community on Virginia's eastern shore peninsula). I had left Norfolk at 4:30 that morning on a northbound bus and arrived in Cape Charles at 6 a.m.--the early departure being necessary since busses stop in Cape Charles only twice a day. After exchanging a few more casual comments with Ted, I looked around once more. We drove slowly down the street and I observed a few people starting to mill about. A couple of "old timers" could be seen sitting outside a store, talking--possibly sharing past experiences still vibrant in their memories. Across the street, a woman was busily toting a bag of groceries to her car. A young couple strolled by, oblivious to all but their own emotional world. The whole business area, consisting entirely of a few small stores, one food market and a gas station further down the street, reminded me of similar country towns in my own native state (Arkansas).

At first we discussed conventional topics. Then Ted changed the conversation: "I'll take you for a short drive to show you around."

A few sailboats and small fishing craft could already be seen dotting the water. In the distance, the long Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel was partially visible, and a new morning sun was peaking through the clouds as if to assure us of a clear day ahead. As we approached the curved cape road outlining a beach strip, a rustic wood-framed hotel appeared on my right.

"It's all rather scenic," I remarked, glancing down toward the beach that was now coming into view.

Ted agreed, emphasizing that he also liked the area because it was far removed from larger cities with their pollution and noise. But, "Most of all, I've always wanted to buy my own place and settle down near the ocean some day," he added. Reflecting his innate love for the sea.

I then remembered that there was another great psychic who had settled down and carried on his life's work not too far from this very spot--Edgar Cayce, the famous "sleeping prophet" of Virginia Beach, who is said to have literally tapped the Universal Mind. A wisdom far beyond his own seemed to guide Cayce from childhood, as he gave fantastic health readings and life-changing philosophy to thousands. There are definite parallels between the two Virginia psychics. First, Edgar Cayce practiced the art of healing by utilizing a (then, unorthodox) system that combined psychological and physical methods, tailored to individual patients. He also believed in higher spiritual intelligences, who apparently channeled vital information through him while in a trance. In addition, many of Cayce's prophesies, like Ted's, were of the earth-shaking variety: earthquakes, shifting of large land masses, violent disruption and sinking of continents, and other dramatic changes in the physical (as well as moral) planet environment. (However, out of such turmoil an age of love and enlightenment is eventually to emerge.) With the exception of so-called "readings," Ted has done all the psychic marvels that Cayce has done, perhaps more. However, his system has expanded far beyond the confines that limit most modern psychics. He works with mysterious but powerful "Other-Dimensional" mechanisms, which, according to Ted, "are not within the framework of this world's physical laws." There are testimonials of healing in Ted's files that back this claim--some cases were beyond the help of conven-

tional medical science, when he stepped in and turned the tide. Nevertheless, Ted does not oppose the medical profession. He urges the use of doctors and medicine in circumstances where it is practical, but reminds people that the "giant subconscious mind" can also be depended on to supplement medical or dental aid.

At one period during Ted's long years of work with psychic forces, he came in contact with advanced beings who are not of this world. Evidently, they recognized his potential and singled him out as the one-in-a-billion earth creatures worth establishing communication with. Called "SI's" (space intelligences) by Ted, these awesome entities have formed a link between Ted Owens and themselves. They are the underlying influence behind many of the psychic's fantastic "miracles." As to their ultimate purpose, Ted has only been able to conclude that they are working within some kind of universal framework. Part of their mission at present is to get this sick planet back into balance and to save nature from man's contamination. Through their spokesman, Ted, the SI's are also trying to get the attention of those in authority and impress upon them that they do exist and are trying to help us. It is also evident that the SI's stand by to defend the cause of justice, if mankind continues to disregard its moral responsibilities.

Interrupting my wandering thoughts, Ted announced, "I just completed an experiment a few weeks ago at a large radar installation near here . . . controlled the radar with my mind while experts watched."

"It was rather strange how the whole thing came about," he added, candidly. Apparently Ted had an acquaintance who worked at the complex. While talking with him on the telephone one day, Ted was casually asked if he might be interested in seeing the installation. He admitted that he *would* like to visit, but that he knew tight security must surround such a place, since it was government-operated. Nevertheless, Mr. Owens was assured that much of the red tape could be cleared within a few days for him--and it was.

After a brief tour of the station, Ted received a go-ahead from higher officials for a psychokinetic experiment that would demonstrate the awesome nature of what he terms "Other-Dimensional" powers. Ted stood near the center of the main complex for a while, observing its impressive electronic array. Then he gazed directly into a computer-linked radar console, as if in deep contemplation. Suddenly, mouths dropped and eyes widened as they fastened on the screen. The radar had suddenly "lit up like a Christmas tree!" From twenty to fifty UFOs appeared, streaks of light flashed, and, to top things off, a huge "shaft" of white, glowing light appeared across the screen. An amazed technician gasped with excitement--explaining later the reason for his reaction: The shaft was, he said, an indication that "a powerful force is coming from somewhere right in this room."

"Don't you think it might be coming from my mind?" Ted inquired. (This phenomena, incidentally, is well documented. A notarized statement was signed by a government official at the installation.)

Not fully realizing at the time just how much power he had unleashed in the area, Ted became somewhat concerned over the secondary effects of "OD" forces. "You see, Other-Dimensional energy takes weeks, sometimes months to wear off," he explained to me with a note of seriousness, pointing out that, although such was not purposely intended, it could cause adverse reactions in the atmosphere, affecting aircraft and possibly ships at sea, for miles around.

We then drove to a restaurant along the nearby highway and had a quiet breakfast while discussing general topics, in addition to mysteries of the human mind. Ted described the "SI system," which I had wanted him to teach me (a mind conditioning program developed by him over the years, under the direction, he claims, of the Space Intelligence themselves.)

Next, we stopped briefly at the motel where I was to spend the night and checked in. Ted went over the room thoroughly; turning on the television to check its operation, testing the firmness of the bed's mattress with his hand, and making sure things were in order. I later learned that there was good reason for this. First, I was told that a good, sound night's sleep would be essential, as a heavy build-up of "OD" energy would tax the body. Ted explained that "OD" recharges one's whole system during training, somewhat as a battery is recharged. Nevertheless, the body has to slowly adjust to such additional "voltage--by letting it settle, so to speak. (Once during our sessions, after Ted recommended a half-hour break, I was made even more aware of "OD" effects on one's system. I could almost sense a subtle, but vital, "electric" influence in the air. I took a short walk to a local cafe--and promptly dozed off while sipping coffee!) As for the television adjustment, apparently the SI's are able to project needed symbols and/or general communications into a television set, where they are absorbed and, in turn, used by one's deeper mental levels.

While en route to Ted Owens' home, I asked numerous questions and absorbed more information. I was told of a recent trip he had made to California with his oldest son, and of the sighting of a "golden globe of light" by Ted, his boy, and another witness who happened by while they were traveling in the Arizona desert. (This incident is also documented.) Evidently, the SI's were observing the psychic throughout his trip. In addition, he was later directed to stop at a spot in the road, where he discovered a smooth, round rock, strongly resembling an alien face, complete with eyes, nose, mouth and other features. Ted wonders if perhaps this is a "petrified head" of some small UFO humanoid who once walked the earth ages ago.

Before we entered Owens' house, Ted delighted in showing me a once-withered plant that had been transplanted and was showing marked signs of recuperation. First we went through the spacious back yard, where I observed his pets--a small squirrel monkey and a white rabbit. As we approached for a closer observation, Ted explained: "The mother rabbit actually adopted the baby monkey as her own." The little fellow, sensing a stranger, was now clinging closely to his "mother's" back. Ted talked to the animals and we watched their antics a while before entering the house.

A large number of Ted Owens' uncanny demonstrations revolve around a highly-advanced psychokinesis (mind over matter) system, which in turn is linked up via his brain with Other-Dimensional ("OD") forces. "OD" energy normally functions outside of our own third-dimensional plane, and is awesome in its scope.

The very possibility that such phenomena could exist fascinated me from the beginning. Later, on the basis of personal experience and observation, I was able to accept much of what Ted claimed myself. With a background in metaphysics, it was probably natural for me to recognize parallels between Ted's situation and certain biblical events. For example, in Sunday school most of us learned how prophets of old, such as Moses, Elijah and others commanded nature's forces to do their bidding: Elijah caused "fire" (lightning?) to descend from "heaven." He also caused both draught and rain. Moses was constantly surrounded by paranormal events--influences potent enough to push aside a path in the sea, manifest "pillars" of fire and smoke, cause intense plagues, etc. In Ted's case, we seem to be dealing with similar Other-Dimensional phenomena--only with a more modern terminology being used to describe it.

According to Ted, Other-Dimensional power expands--that is, like other things in nature, it grows with time--and is essentially used to radiate a constructive influence. The Space Intelligences are able to tap this energy directly, but they often relay it through Ted. (He uses "OD" in his healing work and to promote better weather conditions.) Extraordinary results have appeared in countless cases. Nevertheless, since Ted Owens works with the "SI's," who have a superior knowledge and better overall perspective of things, he admits he cannot always "call the shots."

Many plastic "SI" discs have been carefully and patiently charged with beneficial "OD" forces by Ted--then distributed to those in need of them. Healings, protection, good luck, better jobs and other benefits are reported by people who wear the discs.

Other-Dimensional forces appear to be linked up with the universal principle of cause and effect, and Ted has been quite outspoken in this area. He is concerned about mankind's continued abuse of nature and disregard for moral responsibility. Perhaps the "bad seeds" we have sown over the years (war, intolerance, greed, etc.) are now bringing their unpleasant harvest in full force. Most psychics feel that the long build-up of negative energies has only started to unleash unpleasant retribution. Logically, the Higher Intelligences would find it necessary to take appropriate steps towards normalizing conditions. Unfortunately, however, if the ancient prophets are on target, our planet could be in for a period of cataclysmic change brought about by natural and cosmic agents in order to purify it. Such assumptions coincide with the Space Intelligences' messages issued through Ted. One of their earliest communications was a warning to planet earth; yet, in the same note, the UFO/Inter-dimensional entities promised to help us, if we would only cooperate with higher powers, with nature and with our fellow man. Ted has constantly tried to get proper recognition from government spokesmen and scientific officials for his important work. For the most part, he has been dismissed lightly, without fair and unbiased consideration. Ted feels that disaster can be averted in numerous cases--in spite of ourselves--if we but wake up and take proper steps in time. But, we are told, it may already be too late! Beings of higher wisdom such as the SI's, wish to set a "salvage" plan in operation that will bring everything back into balance on this planet--and they indeed have the means to do it--but since they respect human choice, they will not force it down our throats.

In a letter to various scientists observing his work, Ted explains why the ways in which Other-Dimensional effects are manifested often seem so unusual to humans:

"The reason my psychic work is so hard and difficult to understand . . . is because I work other-dimensionally . . . with that half of my brain that the SI's changed, modified, to link my brain with/into their dimension. And being other-dimensional . . . the laws of that other dimension do not apply to, or agree with, the physical laws in this dimension. But they will bring about cause and effect with our physical laws nonetheless. Why modify half of my human brain? Because, in this way, I can 'translate' the SI Other-Dimensional effects into this dimension . . . so that (they) . . . can be understood in our own cause and effect language."

Although a good percentage of Ted Owens' prophesies appear startling, they are often accompanied by even more unbelievable demonstrations. The evidence is impressive and well-documented. It would take a large volume to cover all the varied types of predictions and "miracles" Ted has to his account.

His first major psychokinetic experiments involved weather and other activities of nature. More specifically, they involved such activities as: drenching chosen areas with torrents of rainfall (for days at a time), unleashing powerful thunder and lightning storms, and--believe it or not--directing and/or diverting the course of hurricanes! His

58

book, How to Contact Space People contains accounts of these experiments, as well as the large east coast "blackout" ordered by Ted, which occurred in the late 1960s. One can only conclude that the SI's mean business; and, even though their initial purpose was to help us, they will not sit back at present and be passive while we senselessly try to destroy ourselves (and our world).

The major areas covered by Ted's amazing psychic foresight in the last few years include:

**EXTREME WEATHER PHENOMENA**

Note the following headlines gleaned from US News and World Report (June 11, 1973): Odd Weather: No End in Sight. Among the unusual weather patterns that year were--

* Heavy rainfall in the east, while . . .
* Drought was experienced in the northwest
* Floods "damaged crops over a vast area"
* An unprecedented volley of disastrous tornadoes occurred (169 in a four-day period!)

In his November, 1971 newsletter, Ted had written: "My demonstrations will be . . . in the skies and heavens overlooking our earth," adding that it would be his own work and not involve the Space Intelligences. It is very interesting to note that the aforementioned odd weather news account stated that erratic jet streams flowing through the upper atmosphere were responsible for most of the unusual weather. You may inquire: "But can Other-Dimensional forces actually control the jet streams?" They did, according to Owens.

**EARTHQUAKES AND ATMOSPHERIC PHENOMENA**

Major quakes and minor tremors have also been plentiful in the 1970s. But a specific case loosely tied in with erratic atmospheric behavior (predicted by Ted) took place about mid 1972. Ted, in a letter to his circle of scientists and researchers, reminded them that he had been working to cause an earthquake in northern California: "One was produced," he affirmed, ". . . off target somewhat, but in the time frame specified."

The major part of the quake occurred in Hawaii--200 miles southeast of Oahu Island on April 1, 1973. It was indeed quite mysterious at that! During the earthquake, the ionosphere apparently vanished, mystifying scientists considerably. Various other strange things "smacking of science-fiction" according to an AP report, also took place in the atmosphere shortly before a major tremor reached the largest island. Suddenly, long-wave radio signals, "began drifting and not making sense. The ground vibrated for about two hours," (after the quake first registered) whereas it should have ceased within about a half-hour span. One person was quoted as saying the quake "shook this island like a rug." Because of such unusual circumstances, one is tempted to conclude that a paranormal force was, in actuality, at work here.

California was not entirely spared either: From the April 12, 1973 Costa Mesa Register, we read of, "The fourth earthquake in two weeks" which struck the Fontana-Rialto area west of San Bernardino (registering 3.5 on the Richter scale). One man was reportedly knocked out of bed, but "otherwise there were no reports of damage." On the same day tremors, registering 5.0 on the Richter scale were reported in Mexico City (as in the above account, however, reports of damage or casualties were not evident).

**FLOODS**

In August, 1972, Ted Owens again reminded contacts of the earlier prediction, adding: "Now I would assume from here on . . . planes might be in danger, and the water attack (catastrophic flooding) that I write of . . . might be even more dangerous than it has been." (Hurricane Agnes in West Virginia, floods in South Dakota, etc., not to mention the worst typhoon in Philippine history) "So here it is. The power I 'sent up' in 1971 . . . has arrived." Referring briefly to the "lag" in this particular prediction, Ted explained that there are occasional time variations due to dimensional differences between our world and that of the SI's.

In 1971, Ted made comments on prior floods: "This (situation) was brought about . . . because my word of warning was not heeded . . . regarding further pollution. Now . . . the very air of the earth overhead . . . will be a no-man's land . . ." Each day new and formerly unknown dangers threaten an atmosphere already saturated with poison. Some experts say that we may have already passed the point of no return in atmospheric pollution. As Ted predicted in 1973, nature has truly started her war of retribution on man. We can expect more unusual weather patterns and drastic earth and atmospheric changes to come, warns Ted.

**WORLDWIDE DROUGHT**

In the latter part of 1972, the SI's informed Ted that they had set in motion drought conditions to "demonstrate their reality . . . their power to control the natural resources of our earth," and to teach "the human race a lesson it badly needs to learn . . . not to pollute and waste the earth's water." Note the following evidence:

From the San Francisco Chronicle, June 14, 1973, we read the heading: "Dry Spell Worst in 25 Years." The report says, "The United Nations early warning system for famine is signaling a red alert." Major world areas such as Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East were affected by prolonged dry spells. Ted realizes that some people will claim that droughts occurred prior to his prediction, but he points out that these scattered situations did not all jell together in a specific time/group pattern until shortly afterward. For the short period involved, it seems they intensified and multiplied unusually fast! Realizing the harshness of these lessons, Ted assured correspondents that he felt "very deeply for the people all over the earth," who were deprived of water; he noted that

60


=== Page 7 of 52

the droughts were not something he wished on the earth. Instead it was a temporary, though drastic, measure taken by Higher Intelligences who have the whole progressive cosmic plan in mind, not just one egotistical, uncooperative little planet.

In spite of man's inhumanity toward his fellow beings, Ted has not completely given up hope for the human race. For that reason he has won SI approval to carry out a plan: Willing to go the "second mile" rather than merely express concern, Ted volunteered to use his own personal psychokinetic ability to influence nature and work to replenish stricken areas. His offers to help countries if their officials would simply contact him are a matter of record. But, in spite of proven credentials, there seem to be no authorities interested in such quick, unorthodox methods.

Nonetheless, Ted Owens is no "quack," nor is he a "crackpot." He is a man of both high ideals and intelligence--a member of "Mensa," an international organization requiring an exceptionally high IQ for membership, a devoted family man, and an individual with straight-forward, simple manners who is deeply concerned about the problems of our country and our world. His warning to those who would try to obtain and abuse supernormal powers from advanced spiritual entities leaves no room for doubt: "If they feel you will use them selfishly (against your fellow man), they will ignore you, for the SI's are only interested in finding and developing those humans who will use their new powers to advance the human race creatively and constructively!" It is a fact that Ted Owens has used paranormal powers to successfully rid select areas of drought, even though proper credit has not always been given where due.

It is clear to many scientists and far sighted thinkers that, through nature's erratic patterns, she is trying to tell us something vital. The point is, will we take heed?

A most unusual warning, recently circulated by Ted Owens concerns what he calls the "rich gang" (an international underground organization of economic manipulators). These men, he feels, are the power behind much of the political corruption and inner turmoil in this country. He stresses that they try to gain control of key officials in various countries through advanced psychological tactics, financial power or graft, and occasionally, downright violence in subtle forms. We have only recently discovered a few small exposed "cogs" within the vast machinery built by these power-crazed, wealth-hungry men. The largest portion still remains well hidden--and, as long as individuals allow greed to rule their better judgment, it will remain so. Ted does not beat around the bush about the "rich gang's" diabolical objectives:

"Their purpose was to 'take' the world . . . by first gaining control of the U.S., the most powerful country . . . on down the line . . . so that they could make and dictate our policies, rig the market, control things," says Ted. "The only shield against them . . . is principle, morals, ethics. Their money goes over, under and around just about everybody's principles, morals, and ethics . . . except a handful. They'll be back with a 'new ballgame' in time ahead," warns Ted. He thinks this "gang" may have been the "incredibly intelligent brains" behind numerous assassinations of progressive leaders. Other murders and 'dirty work' are made to look accidental. The "rich gang" gains governmental advantage by setting up puppets within certain essential areas of the particular system's structure. Whether the puppets are aware of it or not, they can be used to advantage by the diabolical manipulators. According to Ted, these men are "picked . . . and patiently maneuvered into position." The "rich gang" is not just made up of dishonest, wealthy financial Barons or Mafia types; it may also include corrupt individuals who are their "dupes" and who have infiltrated the ranks of politics, religion, business and various organizations, such as unions, industry, media and higher educational institutions. Unfortunately, since a large majority of the people in our land today are apathetic, their attitudes add immensely to the "rich gang's" success. We can gain courage however, from the fact that spiritual forces such as the SI's are causing a "chemicalization" (or stirring of negative forces like this to the surface, much as impurities are brought to the surface of a liquid mixture and skimmed off for purification). It is a painful, trying process, but a necessary one.

### SPACE EFFORTS

The SI's appear to be keeping a close eye on our space shots, probably to insure that we do not spread our destructive tendencies and greed to other worlds. Some noteworthy researchers into extraterrestrial and Other-Dimensional theories, such as Brinsley LePoer Trench, feel that earth was placed in a type of "quarantine" in the distant past by space people. They tell us that once enough men of strong character, linked with higher perception, emerge from this present challenging age, however, our planet will gravitate toward harmony, and the quarantine will be lifted. Earth will again have open communication with advanced races--as did the ancient masters. In the meantime, "They (the SI's) simply do not want us humans 'up there' fouling outer space as we have 'fouled' our own nest," remarks Ted in his typical direct manner. News media accounts of instances where space shots were dogged by difficulties are quite plentiful. In addition, the space programs involving astronauts have often had a pattern of bad luck mysteriously clinging to them. Such events are now a matter of history, so they will not be covered in detail here. Suffice it to say, the troubles have been many. For example, consider the Skylab missions. Skylab III was "peppered with problems from the beginning," according to a spokesman. One AP report quotes the flight director as saying that troubles had been so numerous, "I have the feeling somebody doesn't like us," add-


=== Page 8 of 52

ing later, "It can't be real." Ted's reaction to this was . . . "It always seems with SI miracles good and/or bad . . . 'it can't be real!' "

CELEBRITY TRAGEDIES

Ted has accurately predicted the tragic fate of a number of movie stars or well known personalities--for instance, the suicide of a government official (Congressman Mills), the divorce of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, the death of several celebrities within a two week period . . . Robert Ryan, Veronica Lake, Joe E. Brown, Lon Chaney and Jack Hawks.

PRESIDENT NIXON

Over five years ago, Ted predicted that President Nixon would not be able to complete his term in office for some reason. In What the Seers Predict for 1971, by Warren Smith (Lancer Publications), Ted says: "President Nixon will not end in office. Something most unusual will occur, and he either will resign or be forced out of office."

THE FUTURE

As to the future, here is a summary of things we may expect. (Many are already well underway):
* more inflation and eventual depression
* failing crops
* insect invasions
* shortages of food and water
* strange new ailments (due to negative influences from outer space)
* more drastic earth changes (in the form of unusual weather, earthquakes, etc.)
* discoveries of new lifeforms in space.
* more exposure of corruption in "high places"

There is a positive note to add to such bleak news as the above: The SI's have led Ted into new, expanded areas of assignment concerning constructive OD. So far, he has successfully experimented with "coding" numerous SI disks with OD mechanisms, then spreading them over large areas--such as farms. The objective is "to produce favorable weather and growing conditions," and also, "to control insect infestation of crops."

Ted writes: "My new project . . . told to me by the SI's just last week (and I had been standing by for months waiting for their instructions) . . . is to get around the world, putting things right that go wrong . . . by using OD mechanisms and powers (stopping destructive volcanos; blocking hurricanes from hitting land mass; and so on and on in a thousand different mediums).

"All of the above, of course is positive and constructive . . . and they have 'jumped me up' to a higher plateau . . . requiring much more issuance of OD power on my part . . . so evidently my mental power has grown much more this past year, or they would not consider me ready for this assignment."

From the moment I met Ted Owens, unusual things happened! Most of my initial curiosity over his work centered around that mysterious group of entities Ted calls SI's (space intelligences). While with him, I continually had the feeling we were not alone! Was he indeed in contact with higher intelligences, as claimed? Ted had told me that the SI's kept him under constant observation with one invisible UFO craft hovering overhead at all times--no matter where he was. However, I did not expect them to provide us with an impressive demonstration soon after my arrival! The first phenomena occurred at Ted's home where I was to receive training in the SI System mentioned earlier. Early in the training sessions, I had sensed a presence of some kind within the room, followed by a strong feeling that I was under close observation. Instinctively, my impression was that this was a friendly influence so there was no alarm. And the "third person" did not limit him (or her) self to just one demonstration. A factual description, recorded by Ted on the spot, gives the details of this case:

"At 6 P.M. Bill and I (Ted Owens) seated ourselves at a table at a local restaurant to have dinner. The waitress called over to Bill and me from a distance of 20 feet away: 'How many of you? Are there three of you?' Bill and I looked at each other puzzled. We were sitting at a table by ourselves, no other people within 30 feet. I called the waitress over, remembering that Bill had experienced sensing a third person present in my office today, when in fact there was none, and asked her why she had asked if there were three at our table. She said, 'Why I thought I saw another person sitting with you!' I was stunned. Two different people today, strangers to each other, and in different geographical locations . . . had seen or sensed another person near me!" A placemat--the only paper immediately available on which to write--was signed by the waitress and witnessed by myself. Ted still has it in his files.

"The SI's are directing various people to me for training." Ted had informed me earlier. His task was to wake up these "sleepers" to a fuller psychic potential. But, from that time onward, their progress would be measured in proportion to their own initiative. According to Owens, the SI's could, quite logically, appoint people from all walks of life to work with directly. However, he emphasizes that the requirements are very challenging and require strong character as well as mental discipline. Ted explains that the SI's have ingenious methods of testing one's real motivations--such as dream projections testing reactions to different simulated situations in these dreams. The fact remains that only the SI's themselves know whom they will ultimately select as contacts and coworkers.

The training sessions with Ted Owens were most memorable. In addition to giving the subject the ability to program his mind into positive patterns, Ted states that he "recharges the batteries" psychically--meaning that their whole system is energized while conditioning takes place. One might compare the psychic channel, Ted, to a sort of receiver/transmitter for Other-Dimensional forces. Basically, the program deals with all essential areas of a person's makeup (mental, spiritual, physical). In

# Before I joined the Payroll Savings Plan all I could save was string.

When it comes to saving money, most of us can use all the help we can get.

Joining the Payroll Savings Plan is one easy way to force yourself to save. When you sign up, an amount you specify is set aside from each paycheck and used to buy U.S. Savings Bonds. It's automatic. Everything is done for you.

And now there's a bonus interest rate on all U.S. Savings Bonds--for E Bonds, 5½% when held to maturity of 5 years, 10 months (4% the first year). That extra ½%, payable as a bonus at maturity, applies to all Bonds issued since June 1, 1970 . . . with a comparable improvement for all older Bonds.

Stick with the plan and before you know it you'll have a bankroll waiting. That's when you'll find you can do a lot more with money than you can with string.

SERIES E

Bonds are safe. If lost, stolen, or destroyed, we replace them. When needed, they can be cashed at your bank. Tax may be deferred until redemption. And always remember: Bonds are a proud way to save.

## Take stock in America.

Now Bonds pay a bonus at maturity.

addition, Ted often has the uncanny ability to 'psyche out' certain problem areas, injecting a more personal approach toward specific 'hangups' when needed.

During breakfast Saturday morning, as we discussed present world conditions and our country's domestic problems, Ted pointed out the need for better political leadership in our country, for stronger officials with greater integrity to steer us through the storms of social and political unrest and turmoil. I could see that he was greatly concerned about the world's present situation. I was not told just exactly how the SI's plan to deal with such conditions on this planet, but I was made to realize that, in the larger perspective of things, their purpose is constructive. In spite of occasional "chastisement," the SI's are here to implement a positive plan to salvage this planet before it is too late. By working through people and events, they are bringing about a needed balance.

Remembering various supernormal interventions described in Biblical accounts, I asked, "Could the SI's be compared to angels of ancient times?"

"They were probably called angels back then," affirmed Ted, stressing that early men, with a limited technical background would see them from a slightly different perspective than we do and, therefore, attach a different label. But whether seen from the eyes of ancients or moderns, these UFO entities possess vast knowledge of the universe far beyond the realm of known science. From previous articles on Ted, I learned that the SI's are from another dimension entirely outside our own space/time continuum and that they possess fantastic powers that could make our most cherished marvels look puny by comparison. They provide the channel for the 'OD' powers. Why they selected Ted as a contact is yet another lengthy story which has been covered well in numerous other magazine articles (See Saga Magazine: August and September, 1970; March and April, 1971). Nearly a dozen books by noted writers in the occult/psychic field also describe his works. Ted is certainly not a "fly by night" operator. He claims the SI's have been working with him since childhood. For over 50 years, he has been involved in numerous mental/psychic innovations including the initial ESP experiments at Duke University years ago. And his communications with space intelligences is the result of painstaking effort over a large number of years. Presently he is in touch with various scientists who are observing his psychokinetic experiments.

When a man devotes most of his life to developing powerful mental and psychic aptitudes, he should have ample basis for claiming psychokinetic (mind over matter) ability. One thing is evident: Profit has not been Ted's major motive. He has unselfishly given much time and effort to the SI's plan (to save this planet), while also saddled with the responsibility of supporting his family. Sometimes the going has been rough, because no one has seemed interested in giving the SI work the support it needs in order for Ted to be freer to devote more time to his research; yet he has often used his ability to help numerous people in need without asking compensation.

Though his approach is unusual in comparison to most other psychics, Ted might truly be considered a master psychic--perhaps an essential earth link to other dimensions. One might even call him a UFO Prophet.

# How You Can Communicate with UFO SPACE INTELLIGENCES

By Ted Owens

First, let's get one thing straight. I'm not going to waste your time. This is a "how to do it" article, and if you're interested in doing the following by using your mind, then this is for you:

* Hypnotize yourself at will (with a double safety).
* Summon storms to rain on drought areas.
* Direct lightning at certain targets.
* Make and guide hurricanes.
* Control airplanes in the sky.
* Control ships on the sea (and submarines, too).
* Manipulate and control groups of humans.
* Help and heal human beings who were beyond the reach of modern medicine.
* Control the minds of humans, near or far, either singly or collectively.
* Create earthquakes and floods whenever you wish, wherever you wish.

There is much, much more that you will be able to do, once you learn how to apply the instructions in this article, but the above is only a small sample of what you can bring about with your mind!

At this point you should be extremely skeptical of the above statement. In fact, you shouldn't believe a word of it. Because to do the things mentioned above would not be humanly possible. Or . . . would it? Now let's see . . . Moses did things like that, didn't he? And

Ezekiel? Way back in Biblical days? But more important to you is who is Ted Owens and what does he do? What are his credentials for making such seemingly wild claims? If that's what you're thinking, then you're thinking correctly, and we're getting somewhere already.

I'm Ted Owens, the "PK Man" who uses psychokinetic powers and special effects to produce miracles; Otto Binder wrote about me in SAGA in August and September of 1970 and again in March and April of 1971.

I've already done the seemingly impossible things listed above, and have sworn, notarized affidavits saying so from responsible people. As a matter of fact, I've performed over 200 recorded "miracles" to date, using mind over matter power. Just recently, in a span of three weeks, with scientists watching "over my shoulder," so to speak, I brought a tremendous rainstorm to the Norfolk area--which had been stricken by months of ruinous drought--directed lightning attacks on the Norfolk area; produced a hurricane and brought it so close to Norfolk that the rain fell unceasingly for four days; and just to put the "icing on the cake," I had a UFO ("mysterious halo in the sky" as the TV stations called it) appear over Norfolk so that all could see it . . . simply as a "signature" to the other phenomena I had produced. But before all this happened I had notified scientists, government agencies, and local newspapers by letter that it would happen, so that when it did occur it could not conceivably be called "just a coincidence." I have sworn affidavits to this event.

All the above are only a few of the over 200 miracles I've performed.

All right . . . so I have credentials strong enough to impress an army of skeptics. What's the next step as far as you are concerned? Well, before we get down to fundamentals on how you can proceed to perform miracles, we first need some general background information so you'll have a better idea of how this all came about.

I was born in Bedford, Ind., 50 years ago. Forty of those years were spent learning and perfecting the *powers you will be able to use after you read this article!* But that should not be so surprising--Edison conducted 50,000 experiments over many years before he perfected his first workable light bulb. Once he had it and made it public knowledge, anybody could build a light bulb in short order.

Actually, I am only part human. My brain was modified by UFO intelligences (who we'll call SIs, for "space intelligences") so it would become a two-way sending and receiving set for the SIs. Once you follow my instructions, the same thing can happen to you, and then you will also be able to not only communicate with these UFO creatures, but perform miracles as well.

There are a few books you should read. *Secrets of the Ages*, by Robert Collier, is one. *The Sky People*, by Brinsley le Poer Trench, is another. *Flying Saucers Are Watching Us*, by Otto Binder is yet another. These are must reading in order for you to obtain a proper background for what I'm teaching. The books are easy to read and easy to understand, yet all three are key books.

Once you've received the proper background and mastered the instructions in this article, then you will perhaps be able to "move the world."

The obvious question arises--why place this priceless information before the general public? Isn't it dangerous? Suppose someone with evil intent got hold of it and used it against the U.S. or the world? That's a fair enough question. Now I'll answer it.

There are certain people among us now who are "sleepers"--that is, people who have the potential to become great--to enrich humanity--given the proper training and instruction. It's no secret that the U.S. is now in deep trouble. The SIs are going to try to help us out of the mess we are in by finding and activating these "sleepers," just as they found and activated me. As soon as my instructions are

The goal of the Space Intelligences (who come from another dimension and whose powers and intellects are unimaginably superior to ours) is to help mankind. If after scanning your past, present, and future, they decide you have the capacity for it, they may bestow superhuman powers on you. But if they feel you will use them selfishly--to obtain money, or hurt, rob, kill, or hate your fellow man--they will ignore you, for the SIs are only interested in finding and developing those humans who will use their new powers to advance the human race creatively and constructively!

first pass exhaustive, rugged IQ tests--the minimum IQ necessary is 148. Yet the SIs may choose a farmer, a soldier, a secretary, a truck driver--that is, anyone who might follow the instructions in this article--and build up their minds so they will have superhuman brains that would put a member of Mensa to shame! That person could very well be you!

All right. Enough background. Let's get down to business now. You want the instruction; the system. Now bear in mind that it is unorthodox. But never mind that. While you are learning it, putting it into practice, *do not discuss what you are doing with anybody*, except your "helper"--one person, who will assist you, as I'll soon describe.

**F**irst thing in the System--get the book, *Roth's Memory Courses*, by D. Roth. This book teaches you how to memorize lists of words by associating unusual thoughts. It is only necessary that you master the first 20 words. For instance, No. 1 is "hat" . . . and what you want to memorize, like an airplane, goes with a hat, as No. 1. To memorize it, you simply see a giant 747 plane taxiing around the rim of a tophat. Silly, yes? It's supposed to be. Helps you to remember. This is the technique of "mental imagery," and mental imagery is one of the two keys to becoming a superhuman. Get Roth's book, practice the first 20 words to be memorized therein . . . hat, hen, ham, hare, hill, shoe, cow, hive, ape, woods, tide, tin, team, tire, hotel, dish, dog, dove, tub, and nose. Practice getting up in front of groups (this will make you a big hit at parties) and letting members of the group call out objects, one at a time, which another member writes down on a pad, starting with No. 1. When you've gotten to 20 stop them, *and then you can call back the entire list in any order, backwards or forwards!*

Now why, you ask, is this parlor trick necessary in order to become superhuman?

When you finally communicate with the SIs, and when you perform your miracles, assuming you get to that point, it will all be done through mental imagery. Therefore, while you are performing your "parlor trick" of giving memory demonstrations, you are actually building a muscle in your mind for mental imagery! Each time you do the memory exercises, it will easier and easier for you to see pictures in your mind, and to *control* these mental pictures.

Let me give you an idea of how important this mental imagery is to become superhuman. While in Maine several years ago I told a prominent real estate man, Mr. Ed Ames, I would communicate with the UFO

mastered and put into operation the SIs will be alerted. At that time they'll scan your mind, telepathically, just like you are reading this article. All that you have been and done will be "seen" by them. Also everything you can do in the future will be observed, because they can "see ahead" in time. They will decide then whether or not to contact you, modify your brain, give you superhuman powers, as they did with me, and use you to benefit and lead mankind. Should you be interested in hurting, hindering, robbing, killing, hating your fellow man, or acquiring money and riches, they will ignore you.

**T**HE SIs ARE INTERESTED ONLY IN FINDING AND DEVELOPING THOSE HUMANS WHO WILL USE THEIR NEW POWERS TO ADVANCE MANKIND CREATIVELY AND CONSTRUCTIVELY.

So I assure you, there is absolutely no danger whatsoever of "bad people" using these priceless secrets to harm either the human race or the U.S.

Now, you would think that the SIs would find and develop only the brilliant minds among us, wouldn't you? For instance, I happen to belong to "Mensa," an international organization of some 15,000 members whose IQs are exceptionally high. In order to be accepted by this organization you have to

# THIN HAIR RECEDING HAIRLINE?

**FACT: As some men become older, the dermis of the scalp becomes thin. This limits blood circulation to hair follicle. Eventually the hair dies.**

| NORMAL YOUNG SCALP | OLDER SCALP thin dermis |
|---|---|
| Normal Dermis is fairly thick, acts as a cushion, and allows blood to circulate freely to hair follicle. | * Less fatty tissue between scalp and skull. This causes: * Restricted circulation to hair follicle * Loss of adequate protein nutrition to hair * Thin hair * Hair dies |

# Introducing HAIR PRO

## Hair is Protein - HAIR PRO is concentrated Protein!

### WILL HAIR PRO HELP YOU?

#### TRY THIS TEST

- [ ] Does your scalp seem to be drawn tight on your skull?
- [ ] Does your scalp (dermis) seem thin?
- [ ] Is your hair receding from forehead back, while the crown of your head develops a bald spot?

If the answer is yes, then you probably have a balding problem due to poor circulation to hair follicle. The blood cannot flow freely to bring adequate protein nutrition to your hair. Eventually the hair dies. HAIR PRO tablets are a special formula of PROTEIN CONCENTRATE.

### WHY HAIR PRO?

H HAIR PRO used as directed, gives the blood increased amounts of Protein. Now, the same circulation to your scalp brings highly enriched amounts of protein nutrition for hair VITALITY, BODY, STRENGTH and LUSTER.

It works like vitamins and gives your hair added doses of Protein for more youthful hair.

HAIR PRO will not help all balding problems. We offer it for circulation/nutrition problems of the scalp. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED.

intelligences, ask them to bring a UFO into plain sight over the Brewer-Bangor area within a few days' time, and it would be reported in the newspapers! He said all right, he'd like to see if that could happen. So I used mental imagery to contact the SIs, then used mental imagery to show the SIs what I wanted as a demonstration. A few days later a flying saucer was sighted over the Brewer-Bangor area, knocked out automobile power, and then vanished. And the story appeared on the front page of the local newspapers. (I have Mr. Ames's sworn affidavit on this event.) Now, without mental imagery I could not have performed this "miracle."

Or take the case of Brenda Sue Pennington, a girl in a hospital just outside Washington, D.C., who had a crushed skull and was dying. Her parents asked me to try to save her. I used mental imagery to contact the SIs and "tell" them what I was attempting, then stood inside the girl's hospital room and used mental imagery to place other-dimensional symbols onto the girl so that they would grow and help her. One, for instance, was a rainbow effect on top of her head, which would then spread and grow larger with the passing of each day, until it eventually filled her entire hospital room! That was the turning point for the girl, who'd been given up for dead by the doctors; today she is living in West Virginia. The point, is, without mental imagery the whole thing would have been impossible. (That case also is documented.)

I first stumbled upon, and learned, the Roth memory system when I was 18 years old. Of course, I hadn't really "stumbled" onto it; the SIs had led me telepathically to it, just as they would lead me, a "sleeper," to all the other necessary materials for communicating and working with and for them.

So you can see how vitally important it is for you to learn and develop this mental imagery technique! It isn't hard; it's lots of fun; it's entertaining to your friends; and best of all it will make your brain more powerful!

(By the way, if any of you have questions about any of this, or difficulty in following the directions for this System, just write to me care of SAGA magazine, 333 Johnson Ave., Brooklyn, N.Y. 11206, and I'll help you personally, as much as my time allows, by answering your letters. It could take a while for me to answer, so please be patient.)

The next step in learning this System, is the most important! A famous scientist, who wants to remain anonymous to protect his reputation, thoroughly investigated me and my work and stated unequivocally that it had to be my mastery of self-hypnosis that was the key to the SIs being able to give me superhuman power! And that is your next step -- to hypnotize yourself. I'll make it simple for you, too. Some people take years to learn autohypnosis, but you'll be able to do it in days.

Actually, self-hypnosis is the key that unlocks a secret door in your mind that leads to a storehouse of tremendous

surgery first, Charlie," I yelled at him. "Then use auto-hyp."

Control of useless pain is only one of thousands of possible uses for self-hypnosis. One man learned autohypnosis because he had a deathly fear of dentists--hadn't been to one for 12 years. As soon as he mastered the technique, he marched to the nearest dentist and had 12 teeth pulled, all under self-hypnosis!

In order to find out more you should read some good books on autohypnosis. There are a number of them, so I'll leave the choice up to you (they are for background and general instruction). I'm going to teach you a superior method right here, which is sufficient for your use.

Before teaching you how to hypnotize yourself, let me give you some preliminary instruction.

Pain is a warning signal; you should only use self-hypnosis to deaden pain in an emergency, until you can get to a doctor; then you should remove the autohypnosis, because you need the pain as an indicator for the doctor to work with. ALWAYS WORK WITH THE DOCTOR. Self-hypnosis should not be used to take the place of medicine, or doctors, or surgery! I can't stress that point enough.

By the way, allow me to quote some people who I taught self-hypnosis (names are unimportant, but they are identified by profession, to show its scope). Business owner: "Since I've used autohypnosis I find that people can't irritate me or insult me anymore. It just seems to bounce off me. I'm much happier. I feel like a new man!" Court reporter: "Since I've learned autohypnosis from you I've been amazed at the good results of it! And I've been deeply happy since using it!" Jeweler: "Money could not buy what your autohypnosis has done for me, Mr. Owens!" Secretary: "Nothing happened the first two weeks but suddenly I've become happier than at any other time in my life. I can't believe it, and I'm scared that it might go away. I'm so happy!" Lawyer: "My work has improved 30 percent because of the autohypnosis you taught me. It's really working!" Court reporter: "This week I have been happier, made more money, and got more work done that at any time in my entire life! I even increased my stenotype speed by 25 words per minute by using my autohypnosis. This autohypnosis is the best thing that ever happened to me!" Nurse: "It's like a miracle! Now I'm sleeping like I used to years ago! For years I have only gotten half a night's sleep, until now." Electronics expert: "I didn't believe in this for a couple of weeks, but now I'm sleeping without pain, and soundly."

These comments from former pupils go on and on but you can see how powerful and effective this method is. Used intelligently (with the cooperation of your doctor, if you so desire), self-hypnosis can improve your life tremendously! But even more important, it can lead you directly to the SIs and to superhuman power.

(Two superior books I suggest you read are: Autoconditioning by Dr. Hornell Hast, and Hypnosis by Drs. S. J. Van Pelt, Gordon Ambrose and George Newbold.)

Now, the autohypnosis I'm going to teach you is designed to lead you to the SIs. However, here are a few of the things it can do for you when it is used simply for itself:

* It can make you feel happy and cheerful, instead of depressed and blue.
* It can give you the courage to face anything.
* It can refresh you in minutes, if you are tired.
* It can keep you wide awake, if that is necessary (be careful not to extend this over too long a period of time.)
* It can put you soundly to sleep, all night long, or at any time.
* It can relieve pain and discomfort. (Useless pain, that is. Read those books I referred you to concerning this point.)
* It can help you break bad habits, such as procrastination, overeating, smoking drinking, etc.
* It can remove panic, fear, tension, self-consciousness, etc.
* It can help improve your personality and your attitude toward people, and situations.
* It can help you improve your income, by improving you.

But what is the "secret" of self-hypnosis

Just this: in your normal conscious state your thoughts do not register very deeply upon your subconscious mind. In contrast, when you utilize your autohypnotic "trigger" mechanism, all your mental power is focused on whatever you are concentrating on, and when you come out of your self-hypnosis your mind is set, just like an alarm clock, to get the maximum results that you have ordered while under autohypnosis. (This is called posthypnotic suggestion.) You see, in your normal conscious state you use a mere five to 10 percent of your brainpower. But your subconscious mind, controlled by your self-hypnosis, gives you access to approximately 70 to 90 percent of your brainpower! Quite a difference!

O.K. Now I'll teach you exactly how to hypnotize yourself, step by step. The first step is to have you hypnotized by your "helper"--your husband or wife, or girlfriend or boyfriend. Someone you trust who will take this seriously and not make fun of it, and will above all else, be considerate and cautious. If you have any doubts or reservations, you should not attempt it (and that goes for any step along the way). A pendulum will be needed--one can be acquired in novelty or magic shops, or you can simply tie a ring to a six-inch string. Turn off all the lights in the room except one just above and behind your head, as you lie on a couch. Your helper will be seated beside the couch in such a position that he can hold the end of the string of the pendulum and let it dangle in front of your eyes, swinging it back and forth. He can put this page in his lap and read the instructions below, as he slowly swings the pendulum back and forth about six inches in front of and slightly above your eyes, so that you have to look up at it. Then he begins reading out loud as you keep your eyes focused on the swinging pendulum, moving it slowly back and forth:

"Now, all you have to do is listen to my suggestions, and imagine the suggestions taking effect. Just watch the pendulum.

unused power! Let me give you a few examples of what can be done with self-hypnosis. Some years ago in Texas, I bought a car from a salesman named Charlie Turner. Charlie was English, and his accent interested me. We chatted as I filled out the necessary papers, and he said it had been the first car he'd sold in several months, that he was broke. I "scanned" his mind and telepathically ascertained that here was an unusual man, one with great potential. So I told him that I taught self-hypnosis, and that he should learn it. He said he hadn't the money to pay for the instruction. I said that it wasn't necessary, I'd be glad to train him for nothing. So he made an appointment, and I began training him. Shortly after learning self-hypnosis he quit selling cars, and started an import-export business. Within months he'd become fantastically successful! He had quite a bit of money in the bank and was becoming widely known in his field. He attributed all this success to his learning of autohypnosis and application to his daily life. But that wasn't all. One night Charlie, who lived far out in the suburbs, lifted an outboard motor on top of his stove to repair it, and the stove's pilot light ignited the motor; it blew up, spraying flaming gasoline on Charlie's left hand and arm. Charlie quickly doused the flames and called an ambulance, which didn't get there for almost half an hour (this happened at 3:30 in the morning). Charlie told me that if he hadn't used self-hypnosis on himself to deaden the excruciating pain, he'd have gone out of his mind. But worse was to come. After Charlie reached the hospital he removed the self-hypnosis from his arm (as I had taught him to do) so the doctors could work on him, that's when he was told that they couldn't give him a shot to ease his pain until the doctor arrived to authorize it! Therefore because the pain was unbearable, Charlie put himself under hypnosis again, and sat for 40 minutes until the doctor got there. The doctor told Charlie that he might never be able to use the arm again. It was burned that badly. And then, at that point, Charlie deviated from my instruction and told the doctor he would treat the arm himself without the doctor's help! Charlie took a cab home and stayed in bed for a week, using autohypnosis not only to deaden the pain in his arm but also to rebuild and restore the skin and muscle! At the end of that week he climbed up on top of his house and installed a new TV aerial, using the left arm the doctor said would be useless! The following week he was up and about driving his car and doing all his normal chores. The week after that he came to see me, told me the story, and showed me his left hand and arm. Only a tiny brown spot remained on the back of his left hand. *The arm was entirely normal!*

I've gone into this case in detail because it demonstrates how self-hypnosis can help, both your life situation as a whole and in countless emergency situations. Of course, pain is a warning signal, and autohypnosis should be used only in an emergency until you get to a doctor. I bawled Charlie out for not staying in the hospital and following the doctor's instructions. "Medicine and doctors and

glue your eyes to it as it moves back and forth, and listen closely to my voice. Now your feet and legs are becoming heavy... heavy like lead. Your entire body is becoming quiet, heavy, and relaxed. You are breathing more slowly, and more deeply, and feel your eyes getting heavier and heavier... more and more relaxed and heavy. Feel your entire body now getting heavier and heavier... more and more relaxed... feel as if heavy weights were pulling down on your eyelids... feel your eyes getting heavier and heavier. Now, at the count of two, let your eyes close, then listen only to my voice. One... two. Close your eyes. Now do not try to open your eyes, or come out of your deep concentration until I count back to zero later on.

"Listen only to my voice and let nothing bother or disturb you. You are now going to relax deeply. Each time you breathe your body will become much heavier and your feet, legs, hands, and arms will become heavier and more limp. Listen closely to my voice for it is going to help you, and you will not listen to other sounds, and they will just fade away. Now feel your feet, your legs, your hands, your arms growing heavier and heavier and more and more relaxed. Let your hands become as limp as though they were pieces of cloth, or two empty gloves lying on top of a dresser, completely heavy and limp. Remember, all you have to do is listen to me and imagine what I am suggesting. And the better you concentrate your mind on listening to my suggestions, the better the results you will obtain through the power of your mind. Now be aware of any tense muscle in your body, and simply let it relax, let it go limp. Just let go and keep on letting go. Now your entire body is getting heavy, limp, quiet, and relaxed. Feel your hands getting still heavier and heavier, and more and more relaxed.

"Feel more and more peaceful. Feel a sense of peace and well-being coming over you. Feel at peace with yourself. Now turn your attention to your face and neck and let all tension and nervousness go out of your face and neck. Just relax your face and neck and let those areas become quiet, peaceful, and relaxed. Feel a great peacefulness. Feel at peace with yourself. Now, with your entire body relaxed, quiet, peaceful, limp, and relaxed, I am going to count from one to four, and as I count feel this relaxation and quiet peacefulness sinking in, deeper and deeper. One, more relaxed. Two, deeper and more peaceful. Three, more quiet, more relaxed. Four, still deeper, more quiet, more peaceful. Now you are deeply relaxed, and must not try to come out of your concentration until I count back to zero.

"Now listen carefully... from this minute on, whenever you practice your self-hypnosis, it will be five times deeper and five times more powerful for you than ever before! And each day, as you use your self-hypnosis, you will become happier and more relaxed and your nerves will become calmer and calmer, and you will be able to relax more quickly each time you practice it and more easily each time you use it. And each time you practice you will be able to let yourself sink into the concentration more easily, and more quickly.

"Now, listen to me carefully, and ac-

cept each of my suggestions. The following suggestions will be indelibly engraved upon your subconscious mind for the rest of your life, and will serve you powerfully for the rest of your life. Powerfully!

"From now on, whenever you wish to hypnotize yourself, look at the moon of either of your thumbnails, and simultaneously say, or think, the words 'deep asleep.' Always remember these two key words, 'deep asleep.' Then feel your eyes get heavy, and let them close. Next picture in your mind a dark light bulb and touch your forehead between your eyes and see this light bulb in your mind click on. Now, that much is your 'trigger mechanism,' and the instant you have completed it you have turned off your conscious mind and turned on your giant, subconscious mind . . . although there will be no apparent difference to you, that you're aware of. Next, count to three, slowly. Then you are ready to give yourself your autosuggestion . . . and you must speak to yourself with emotion and feeling . . . also over and over, to make it stronger. For instance, instead of just saying, 'I'll be happy today,' say 'Today and every day I'll be happy, relaxed and calm, and the things that have been worrying me, irritating me, will no longer have the power to upset me; they will just bounce off me like a rubber ball off a wall.' In other words, give yourself a regular pep talk under your own hypnosis . . . then repeat it over and over several times, to make it even stronger. Then you are ready to wake yourself, and for this you always follow the same procedure, saying 'I'll waken now at the count of zero, wide awake, refreshed and happy, with my mind and body in perfect balance, and going with God.' Then you count backward . . . four, three, two, one, zero . . . see the light bulb in your head click off when you touch your forehead, say to yourself out loud, 'wide awake now!', open your eyes, and snap your fingers right in front of your eyes . . . just to make sure that your are out of your deep concentration. Do you have these instructions in mind? (He or she nods) "Good. Now I'll touch your forehead and these instructions will be indelibly engraved upon your subconscious mind for the rest of your life, and will serve you powerfully! Powerfully!" (The helper touches the subject on the forehead between the eyes and says "there!")

"Now, before you come out of your deep concentration, a few more instructions. For the next two weeks do not try to analyze what is going on or it might keep it from working. It would be like your going into a dark closet with a bright light to see if there was any dark in there. The secret to obtaining powerful results is to just let yourself go, and follow these instructions. Also, it will take two to four weeks before you have completely mastered this skill, so do not expect any miraculous results before that time. Now, for two minutes there will be quiet." (At this point the helper puts his hand on the listener's forehead, closes eyes, and says a personal prayer . . . asking God to make the listener happy and healthy.)

"Now you will come out of your deep concentration at the count of zero . . . wide awake, happy and refreshed, your body

**Travel** agents are already being deluged with requests for information concerning the growing number of European beach resorts which encourage total nudism. Next summer could be the most naked scene ever. Some countries are encouraging the au naturel scene; others have tried it but now insist that bathers at least put on a bikini. Surprisingly for a modest Communist country, Yugoslavia sees a good thing in nakedness and offers the beaches of 17 main cities to the nude set. Italy and France both have a number of beaches set aside as "private for nudists only." Corsica anticipates summer bookings in 7 nude villages. Part of the German island of Sylt has been reserved for nudists. One movie star last summer turned up at her doctor's office asking to have her appendix scar made smaller before she doffed her clothes during a beach vacation. Surprisingly, Denmark, where pornography is legal, refuses to let its beach population take off all their clothes. And Kenya, which experimented with the act, now forbids it. One wonders when the first "textile-free beaches" will begin popping up on the U.S. coastline?

**In** sunny Australia, where there is only a little bit of snow in just a few restricted mountain areas, the people are sports crazy 12 months of the year. They are particularly wild about football--although their version is unlike the brand displayed in America's stadiums every Saturday and Sunday afternoon. One football game they invented all by themselves--Australian Rules Football--would put a Joe Namath or a Bart Starr into shock immediately. None of the players wear protective gear and the ball is in play, being kicked, carried, or passed from the opening whistle to the final gun without a time-out to even drag away the wounded. In Melbourne, the capital of this particular sport, crowds of more than 100,000 frequently show up to watch big games.

**Actor** Marcello Mastroianni has been telling the gossip columnists about his ill-fated romance with actress Faye Dunaway which lasted for 3 years before it ended suddenly. "Faye is the woman I loved most," Marcello said. "I was going to divorce and marry her. It was the first time in my life I was completely whole with someone." Their affair broke up when Faye left for Madrid. There she met another man and dropped Marcello. He followed her to Spain to get her to change her mind. He sighs, "When she finally agreed to see me for a few minutes to confirm that our love was over, she was as cold as a German officer." What Marcello is only now beginning to realize is that his appearance may have had something to do with the turn-down. He had completely shaved off his hair for a film role and looked like a fugitive from a police line-up rather than an Italian star. Friends figuring out how Faye might feel urged him to buy a wig before he went to Spain but he refused. When he showed up at her door, it was not Marcello the Magnificent but a bald-headed Italian, and Faye wasn't buying. Evidently Yul Brynner wouldn't stand a chance with her.

**The** world's oldest airline is also one of the smallest, and probably the most unique. Chalk's Flying Service on Miami's Biscayne Bay began in 1919 and its owner, Arthur "Pappy" Chalk is 83 years old. Pappy still comes down to the tiny terminal (which he built himself with stones he picked up on the waterfront) a couple of times a week. Today his airline consists of 4 Grumman Gooses and 3 Mallards and flies twice daily between Miami and Bimini in the Bahamas, as well as shuttling charter passengers to any of 750 nearby islands. This remarkable airline has always been accident free. "We've been flying across the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas for 52 years and haven't hurt anyone yet," Pappy says proudly. Besides flying services, Pappy's pilots run errands for Bimini residents, too. "When someone has a yen for a steak in Bimini," Pappy says, "they just call Chalk's. We go to a Miami store, have the steak cut to order, and deliver it on the next flight."

and mind in perfect balance, and going with God. Your nerves will be relaxed and quiet. All tension will be gone from your body and mind. Your body will feel refreshed and light. If there have been any worries, fears, or anxieties on your mind, they will be gone when you come out of your concentration. Four, three, two, one, zero! Wide awake!" (The helper snaps his finger right in front of the listener's just-opened eyes.)

All right, now, readers. That is the rather long, but necessary "magic formula" for your helper to teach you the self-hypnosis routine. The entire procedure outlined above should be repeated once more the next evening or at some time during the same week. Then all you have to do to hypnotize yourself at any time during the rest of your life is look at the white, or moon, of either your left or right thumbnail, say or think the words "deep asleep," close your eyes, count to three slowly . . . one, two, three . . . and you are ready to tell yourself the suggestion you want to take effect.

All that remains now to reach the SIs, the UFO intelligences, is: type or print on a card, which you will keep in your handbag or wallet, the following: "I am now sending my mind back through the ages . . . to the times of the ancient Egyptians, Incas, Aztecs . . . to learn the great secrets of those times, and to bring those secrets back to me here, so that I can know them and use them in the world I live in today to help mankind."

Now, you will take that formula to bed with you twice a week after you learn how to hypnotize yourself. Just before going to sleep you'll autohyp, go through the routine, and tell yourself before you open your eyes that "when I open my eyes, what I read to myself will take effect on my life with all the power of Nature." Then simply open your eyes and read that formula off the card. When finished, set the formula aside, turn off your light, and go to sleep.

On a second card, type a second formula, which reads as follows: "I hereby give my mind, my soul, and my body to God, to do with as He sees fit to improve the world, to improve mankind. But I deny and reject the Devil and evil completely and entirely!"

You use this second formula twice a week, but in the morning just after you awaken. Just go through your autohyp routine, open your eyes and read this formula out loud to yourself, close your eyes and count backward and bring yourself "out." And you'll have a happy day.

O.K. . . . let's take a brief look at what you need to do: learn Roth's memory system, at least the first 20 words, but practice until you are an expert with those 20 words. Get your helper and have him teach you autohypnosis as outlined above. All he or she has to do is use the pendulum to make your eyes tired, read the passages from these pages, and presto, you learn how to hypnotize yourself. Once that is done, make out your two formula cards and begin to use each of them twice a week on yourself, under your autohyp. Any questions? If your helper should at any time deviate from my written instructions and give suggestions of his own, then you just come awake and get another helper at some future time. You must have a helper you can trust. I've worked out this formula word by word, precisely, with thousands of people, and it works like a charm, if followed correctly. That is why I stress that your helper must be someone you can trust.

Some of you will read this and say, I haven't time to learn a memory system and all these instructions. Too much trouble. Interesting, though. And you'll close the magazine and watch TV.

Some of you will read this, go to the trouble to get Roth's book, learn the 20 words, become a whiz at entertaining at parties, and let it go at that.

Some of you will go further--you'll learn the memory system and develop a strong mental-imagery technique; then you'll get a helper and learn autohypnosis as outlined above. And you'll feel like a million. You'll get happier, and as time goes by your entire life will change for the better. But the cards and formulas will seem silly to you, and you'll skip that.

A few of you will go the whole route: learn the memory system master the autohypnosis, use it as instructed, and apply the formula system as instructed. Then one of two things will happen: the SIs will be alerted automatically, as if you'd rung their doorbell, so to speak . . . and they will scan your mind to determine if you are the right kind of person to handle the awesome responsibilities of secrets from Infinity . . . from another world, their dimension. If when they scan your mind and find you wanting, or weak, or power hungry, or greedy, or mean and cruel--and they can see it clearly, no matter how you've fooled the people around you--then it will not go any further. The superhuman powers will be denied you.

But somewhere in your midst--perhaps a housewife, an office clerk, a truck driver, a lawyer or ballplayer, perhaps even a college youngster--will be a chosen few "sleepers" who will zealously master what I've written . . . use the formulas . . . have their minds scanned by the SIs . . . and pass the test!

From that point on the SIs will take you in hand and bestow on you superhuman powers. Just as they did with me. And the rest will be history. The world will hear about you and the "miracles" you'll perform.

You are needed badly, right away, by the SIs for training and use, because the world is in a dangerous state today. Mankind could be destroyed on any day of the week. But if some of you can be found by the SIs--and accepted and trained--then perhaps there is still a chance for the world to be made a happy, safe place. Healthy to live in and with no more wars and killing and hate.

I want to express my deepest thanks to SAGA magazine for allowing this unusual message and set of instructions to be printed for the general public. SAGA is probably the only magazine in the world with enough interest in mankind to try this unorthodox approach.

The SIs also wish to thank SAGA.

In closing let me say God bless you, readers, whoever you may be, and if you feel inspired, or feel the urge to follow these instructions, please do it, for God's sake!

Boat builders offer endless choices of color and materials, or you can even start from scratch and be your own designer. You can buy old or new, revamp some other man's ideas or create your own. You can build of wood or fiber glass, from a prepared kit or from dozens of different blueprints or pay $1,000 for a hull that needs work, or any amount you can afford.

The word "secondhand" doesn't mean the same thing in boats as it does in cars. A car can go out of style, but a boat is like a house--it's basically good or bad. You can buy any number of boats that are 10, 15, 20 or more years old. You can find dowagers from the 30s that are still in first class condition, and which you would be proud to own. Usually, the largest boat you can afford is the one to buy.

Dr. Don Thomas, a Midwest dentist paid $35,000 for a 100-foot Scandinavian freighter and converted it into a virtual floating palace. It has 2,000 square feet of living space with plenty of room for his wife, two children and their two teen-aged friends. The freighter was completely renovated before Thomas took off, even to the addition of paisley wallpaper in the playroom. He sold all his belongings and cashed in his life insurance to do it, and it's still not as complete as he would like.

But even though his "Shangri-La" doesn't have all the comforts most Americans consider standard--air conditioning, television, telephones, and cars--Thomas has no regrets. "When the money for food and fuel runs out, I'll start drilling teeth again," he says.

With his white beard, battered blue sneakers, and old work clothes, Thomas looks every bit the seadog as he stands on the fantail of his bright red steel ship looking out to sea. "I wanted to see how other people live, learn their customs and understand their problems. Just thinking about it took my mind off mundane things."

He plans to visit the Caribbean, South America, and eventually the South Pacific. "The only reason to go back to work is to eat."

Pete Allison lives in dread of being called back to work at Pan American Airways, where he has been a high salaried mechanic for 12 years. He was layed off in a cutback over a year ago and hopes they never call him back. The reason? He's living on his 30-foot cruiser and makes frequent trips to the Bahamas to dive for treasure.

for more than 20 miles before Marsh sighted a break in the shore line and a body of water leading inland.

Marsh anchored here and wondered if this was the mouth of the Little Big Horn, where he had been ordered to station the Far West. Or was it an unknown creek or stream swollen by the recent rains?

Captain Baker volunteered to find the answer. He was rowed ashore with some of his infantrymen. They traveled for four miles up the waterway and upon their return Baker expressed his conviction that it was not the Little Big Horn.

When soundings showed that the depth of the river had dwindled to three and a half feet Marsh decided not to venture any farther. He was also now convinced that he overshot the mouth of the Little Big Horn that the "creek" explored by Captain Baker was the river they had been seeking. Baker also had been having second thoughts about it and had reached the same belated conclusion.

### The slaughter of "Yellow Hair" and the 261 officers and men of his command has long obscured the fact that three quarters of a million dollars in miner's gold is still resting along a bank of Montana's Big Horn River--only 15 miles from the national monument honoring Custer and his valiant men!

During the next several months I managed to assemble other bits of pertinent information. Over a span of years in tracking down the fact and fiction of lost treasures many turned out to be legend or folklore. But this one began fitting together like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

There was no doubt that Marsh had endeavored to carry out Terry's directive. He had piloted the Far West up the Big Horn through treacherous rapids and a twisting channel full of snags, sandbars, and tiny islands. The vessel journeyed

Marsh was still dubious but permitted himself to be persuaded by Baker. He weighed anchor and traveled 15 miles farther up the Big Horn without observing another break in the shore line. He became increasingly worried as the river shallowed.

A short time later, just before his evening meal, Marsh was informed that a mule-drawn freight wagon had appeared on shore. It had three occupants, the driver, Gil Longworth and two armed guards, Dickson and Jergen.

Longworth hailed the Far West, was rowed out to her and requested to see the captain. Marsh related later that the mule driver was weary and agitated, "and with good reason."

In Part I of the Ted Owens story (SAGA-March), Otto Binder described the amazing fulfillment of the predictions made by the incredible PK man. Now, in Part II, Binder explains how Ted came into possession of his fantastic powers, and why the Saucer Intelligences chose him to be the agent for their vital mission to Earth.

Somewhere in another eerie dimension, strange beings of pure energy cast their all-seeing eyes upon the tiny planet earth. They see strife and trouble and moral degeneration there. Moreover, they see organic creatures (humans) defiling their beautiful world, spreading pollution senselessly. They pity the disorganized earthlings who are unknowingly heading for worldwide disaster and eventual oblivion.

A voice booms out to the DIs, (Dimension Intelligences), an omniscient voice, one that the DIs, through ages of spiritual development, have often tuned in directly.

The Voice commands--"Go to that doomed planet and help those pitifully blundering souls to save themselves before it is too late. Go!"

Obediently, the DIs utilize their ultra-scientific and supernormal powers to penetrate to the earth-dimension in craft shaped like flying saucers. The DIs are now the SIs, or the Saucer Intelligences, as far as earth is concerned.

Their super-ray monitors scan the teeming millions on earth below. Where can they find a human mind less primitive than the average and capable of receiving ESP communications from them? It is no easy task to match minds from two utterly different dimensions.

No such mind is found, not one that would withstand their powerful and indeed lethal thought-impulses. Ah, but that child--his brain and mind might be developed to the point where it would not be blasted and burned out by an interchange of communication. It would take time--an earthly lifetime, in fact--but there is no other alternative. They must begin now, for time is running out for earth. . . .

Harry T. Owens was born in Bedford, Ind., in 1920. The "T" doesn't stand for anything, but an aunt began calling him Ted and the name stuck. From the beginning, Ted was a "loner," uninterested in joining other children in their "silly" games. Only sports interested him, somewhat, in school.

And here the first indications of his strange powers became evident. In basketball, he would make a 20-foot shot with his back to the basket. The ball would swish through the hoop miraculously. When he passed the ball, nobody saw it move, yet the boy he shot it to would suddenly find it in his hands. Needless to say, his friends began to shun him for his mysterious doings.

Ted took up boxing later, excelling in it. However, when he fought a much bigger boy, he was battered savagely in the head and suffered a latent concussion.

As Ted sees it today, this seemed to have been deliberately planned by the SIs.

Even before that, at age five, Ted had been playing in the street when a car struck him and knocked him 15 feet, leaving him unconscious for hours. Then, after the boxing incident, he received more "brain-rattl-

ing" blows as if his brain were being "shook up" or "scrambled"--for a purpose.

While playing, another boy rolled a huge log down on Ted that ripped his scalp open. As a teen-ager, Ted was a passenger in a car that ran off the road at 90 miles per hour. The car was totally smashed, and Ted's head was almost split open.

Ted's head and brain received four brutal blows, from which he always miraculously recovered. That is certainly, and oddly, more than most people suffer. Ted has since found out from the SIs, he says, that these "accidents" were necessary in order to allow one of the invisible SI entities to enter his brain at the moment of injury and perform a strange healing that altered his brain each time, for future SI communications.

This becomes more credible when one remembers that head and brain injuries have played a part in the careers of noted psychics. Peter Hurkos fell off a ladder onto his head, for instance, and thereafter gained his famed psi-powers (a fully documented story). Dr. Franz Polgar was shot in the head in WW I and lived to become a noted "sensitive." There are hints from the SIs that those men, and others, might have been earlier experiments of theirs to reshape a human brain into an SI "receiving station," but without success. Only in the case of Ted, it seems, could the SIs go all the way.

Sheer imagination? Blatant nonsense?

Then read these excerpts from Ted's diary. July 4, 1966--"Woke up this morn with two sore spots on back of head, proportionately spaced. . .two little bumps. Family noticed them immediately, said they were never there before."

July 1, 1968--"Martha (his wife) pointed out this morn. . .two deep scars under my ear, on neck. . .that have never been there before. Did the SIs do something to me overnight?"

Then, in April, 1970, a deep indentation appeared behind Ted's right ear. Martha exclaimed--"Why, Ted, it looks like something has been inserted there!"

In October 1968, Ted also had felt a new ridge of bone at the back of his head, below the brain case. Now the other "indentations" and "scars" might conceivably have been ordinary bruises that Ted received unknowingly. But when a ridge of solid bone appears overnight--and stays--we can't explain that away.

Another remarkable change in Ted's physiognomy occurred recent-

**One astrophysicist, who has studied UFO phenomena for many years, became quite excited after a careful examination of Ted's record of accomplished PK feats and called him "one of the world's greatest psychics" and said he "might be the most powerful mind on earth today!"**

ly, in July, 1970. Ted woke up with two sets of eyebrows. In the mirrors, he distinctly saw a new growth of reddish hair over his normal brown eyebrows. It could have been another sign of brain "tampering" by the SIs.

The SIs have since told Ted what they are up to in these brain "modifications." It was a form of "psychic surgery" to beef up the right lobe of his brain in order to allow him to perform PK feats and also to receive their high-voltage ESP messages.

These weird alterations within Ted's brain are given strong credence by Dr. Ansel Kowzak (his real name is not given to protect his position), an astrophysicist as well as an expert in paranormal phenomena. Kowzak told Ted that the government had performed secret autopsies on several "contactees," notably the famed George Adamski.

The results were startling. In all the dead contactee brains, a pattern of odd growths were found on the frontal lobe of the cerebrum. They were called "dendrites" and seemingly had something to do with the ESP communications the contactees claimed to have had with the saucer people. (In medical terms, dendrites are bunches of tiny sensory tips which link up brain cells. The more dendrites, the more sensory impressions going through the brain. Presumably, large growths of dendrites were found in the dissected brains of the contactees, which might have given them extra-sensory powers. This would give more credence to their stories of receiving ESP messages from saucer people.) This story naturally cannot be verified, if true, as it would obviously be classified by the government to camouflage its secret interest in the "non-existent" UFOs.

Ted is sure that something similar to dendrites have been implanted in his brain by the SIs to make him a sensitive ESP receiver.

Up until March, 1965, Ted had believed he was in communication with the "Intelligence behind Nature" who had given him his PK powers to create or guide storms. Then, as related in the previous issues of SAGA (August and September, 1970), Ted suddenly became aware that he was being contacted by the SIs.

At first their ESP communications were vague, but gradually, as the SIs "modified" his brain properly, the messages became more direct. The exact contact method kept changing, too.

For example, in August, 1965, the SIs switched (Continued on page 70)

head down past the islands. . . ."

Taking a deep breath Marsh signaled to Foulk who moved his engine levers to "slow ahead."

Marsh swung the Far West cautiously about, bucking the swift current, and headed her downstream. He intended to maintain a midchannel course but soon groups of hostile Sioux arrived at sharp bends in the river and galloped along the bank, shooting flaming arrows at the deck and pilothouse.

They succeeded in starting several fires, which were extinguished by the crew. Marsh signaled to Foulk for more speed and swung dangerously close to the far bank. Taut with suspense, he piloted the Far West around the bends and through menacing rapids, reaching the Yellowstone without grounding her.

Here he tied up to await the arrival of Reno and Gibbon and ferry their mauled commands across to the north bank of the river. Despite Terry's other instructions to make all haste conveying the wounded to Bismarck he was compelled to hold the Far West back throughout July 1st and most of July 2nd before the slowly moving columns arrived.

On the following morning he ferried the tired cavalrymen and their mounts across the river and experienced further delay when one of the wounded, Pvt. William George of H troop, succumbed and was buried in a grave on shore.

So it was that the Far West, after another stop at the cavalry encampment at Powder River to take aboard the personal effects left there by officers and men killed on the battlefield, did not begin her record dash of 700 miles to Bismarck until five p.m. on the afternoon of July 3rd.

From here on Marsh and Campbell spelled each other at the wheel in four hour shifts, both remaining in the pilothouse. They reached Fort Stevenson in North Dakota on the afternoon of the 5th, and the Far West halted so that a deckhand could be sent ashore to obtain whatever black cloth was available. Then the vessel proceeded to Bismarck with her derrick and jackstaff draped in mourning.

She completed her epic run shortly after 11 p.m. Marsh hurried to the telegraph office, and the wounded were transported to Fort Lincoln.

Carnahan, the telegrapher on duty, had a badgered look. He had been pounding the key for hours and had no rest since the first report of the Custer massacre reached Bismarck. He waved a sheaf of telegrams at Marsh.

"Everyone is asking for confirmation of the death of General Custer. Wires have been pouring in from all over the East."

"Which is the most urgent?"

"General Sheridan. We've received several from his headquarters in Chicago."

Marsh heaved a sigh. Tired as he was he felt that this was still something he had to do. "All right, let's get at it."

Throughout the next day anxious women visited Fort Lincoln to inquire about their soldier husbands. Some, a pitiful few, found them among the wounded survivors. Others were sympathetically informed that advance reports of the deaths had been confirmed. Among those who called was the widowed Elizabeth Bacon Custer.

Captain Marsh was permitted short time to rest from his arduous journey. Both his skill and his ship were vitally needed. Army headquarters reluctantly acknowledged: "The Indians have secured a resounding victory over the U.S. Army unparalleled in history. General Custer's violation of the principles of maneuver and security have cost dearly. It is imperative that the U.S. Army immediately take steps to rectify the situation. All posts in the military division of the Missouri are to supply reinforcements."

Marsh continued to skipper the Far West in the service of the U.S. Army throughout the Indian campaigns. He transported soldiers and supplies on the Missouri and its tributaries and was cited by General Sheridan for his "zeal, competence and energy," a commendation he highly prized.

In 1879 he had a river boat, the Andrew S. Bennett, constructed at Sioux City for use as a local ferry. While it was being built he found time to go to Bozeman where he made an unsuccessful effort to locate the freighting company whose driver, Gil Longworth, had entrusted the $750,000 gold shipment to his care. He learned that following the death of Longworth and several other attacks on drivers by roving Indian war parties the company had been forced out of business.

Nor could he contact any of the miners whose gold had been in the shipment for the company's records of the names of the individual shippers could not be found.

Marsh, himself, did not attempt to recover the treasure. On returning to Sioux City he learned that the Far West had been sold--literally--down the river and was to ply between St. Louis and other cities along the river. His mate, Ben Thompson, decided to go with her. The last heard of him was on October 20, 1883, when the Far West hit a snag in Mullanphy Bend, seven miles below St. Charles, and went aground so hard that she was subsequently disposed of to a wrecking company. As far as known Thompson never tried to retrieve the treasure either.

Marsh, following the sale of the Far West, took command of another packet, the F. Y. Batchelor, traveling between Bismarck and the Yellowstone. George Foulk went along with him as the engineer.

Early in November 1881, the F. Y. Batchelor was caught in a sudden blizzard on the Yellowstone. Marsh ordered her tied to shore and waited for the storm to blow itself out. Instead, there was one storm after another, and the snow became so deep that not even a train could move anywhere in northern Minnesota or the Dakotas until late in March.

Marsh left Foulk and nine crewmen as caretakers on the ship and returned to Sioux City with the others after an arduous trip. When he returned early in the spring he found that Foulk was in poor health. This is the last news of Foulk, who was taken back to Sioux City and, presumably, had neither the stamina nor inclination to make his own search for the treasure.

According to old river boat records Capt. Grant Marsh retired in 1906 following the death of his wife, to whom he had been married for 46 years. He died in 1916 at the age of 82.

There is good reason to believe that the $750,000 is still hidden, all but forgotten, where Marsh, fearing an Indian attack, left it. Clues and circumstances indicate that the cache awaits a lucky finder.

I, for one, am convinced it is still there.

# UFO PROPHET OF DOOM--
(Continued from page 25)

from vague "voices" in Ted's mind to "mental TV." Ted then saw two odd creatures appear called Twitter and Tweeter. They appeared on a "screen" and relayed messages to him from "Control." This involved changing earth language into "color and sound codes" and then into the SIs' own language.

By September, 1965, Ted writes--"The SIs have taught me to write what I want on a (mental) tablet . . . on 'Men-Tel.' What I write then changes to odd symbols that 'crackle and pop' into odd sounds . . . and the SIs read those sounds."

Evidently this was part of a program to improve communications, for only a few days later, Twitter and Tweeter did not appear on the Men-Tel screen and instead a figure with a shadowy head used a long pointer. The figure seemed to ask Ted what he wanted and told him to use mental images, which were then mirrored on the huge screen.

The shadowy figure, Ted learned, was the great "Control" himself, the top commander aboard the SIs' most gigantic spaceship hovering far above earth. Thus Ted had been "graduated" from the roundabout T and T method to direct mental contact with Control.

On June 27, 1968, Ted's diary entry is--"Control will flash 'yes' or 'no' on screen now, instead of flashing a light." This was the first yes-no contact, which Ted is using today, plus a unique method of passing along information.

As Ted explains it, he calls for Control when he wants contact and immediately the Men-Tel image of the shadowy form leaps into his mind's eye. Ted then transmits his questions or requests, and the screen lights up with a "yes" or "no." For example, if Ted wants to perform some PK feat, he first asks permission. If he gets a "yes," Control also sends along a "capsule" of rapid-fire information on how to accomplish the task. In one split second, Ted is given an intricate series of instructions about PK units, "boxes," and other PK manipulations.

So much for mere communications. Now, just what are the awesome PK powers the SIs have bestowed on Ted? More than earthly "psychokinesis," for Ted has been allowed to tap a reservoir of powers called the ODE forces. ODE stands for "Other Dimensional Effects."

These ODE powers extend Ted's PK performances into any and all conceivable

areas, via various "boxes" and "bubbles" and other amazing devices he visualizes in his mind. We cannot go into this deeply without getting too complicated, but a partial list of these mental devices will give an inkling of the ODE range--Electromagnetic Field Box, Laser PK-Light Projector, Emmy-Emma Roll-ing Lightning Box, Sound Force PK, Weight PK, Poltergeist Box, Magnetic Bar PK, Crystallization PK, Floating Wand PK, PK Fist, Earthquake Box, Moonray PK, Rainbow Door, Nature's Mailbox, etc. The list goes into many more eerie avenues and subdivisions.

Ted has been making precise and orderly lists of these PK-ODE powers and how each or several were applied to a particular case. Ted's record is a glimpse into the awesome powers and forces that the SIs wield. Probably only a tiny portion has been relegated to Ted for use on earth.

All these facets of Ted's life and his partnership with the SIs are necessary for a full understanding of why the UFOs are here on earth--the big riddle we promised to answer in the previous issue of SAGA.

And there is still more to tell about Ted's personal life, which ties in strongly with the great "mission" that the SIs have revealed to Ted recently. If this sounds "over-dramatic," you will see that, if anything, it falls short of describing the SI's Master Plan.

After examining Ted's life, we find that "paranormal" incidents have always happened to him, everywhere he goes.

For one thing, he seems to make that old legend of the "charmed life" come true. Years ago, while driving out west at night, Ted followed a winding mountain road wide enough for only one car. He stopped and worriedly thought that if another car came from the opposite direction, he would have to back down a long way for it to pass. Suddenly, to his horror, a car's headlights appeared, coming straight for him. Seeming not to see his parked car blocking the way, the other vehicle roared closer. Ted prayed and awaited the deadly crash. But nothing happened!

Ted opened his eyes to see the other car behind him, speeding safely away as if it had gone right through his car! There was no other possible explanation.

Another time, while lifting the hood of his automobile to show a mechanic a problem he was having with his engine, Ted carelessly stuck his hand into the engine's whirling fan-blades. The mechanic turned white, expecting Ted's hand to be sliced into bloody shreds. Ted withdrew his hand, unmarked.

But even more dramatic are the cases where mysterious assailants seemed to be after Ted's life. At least six times, cars or trucks deliberately tried to run him down. In some cases they missed as some sixth sense made Ted jump aside, but in two cases Ted swears the vehicles struck him--and passed through his body without harm (as in the above case out west).

There are other episodes in Ted's diary where attempts on his life were made in various ways, and he often mentions odd-looking men in dark clothes. This is strongly reminiscent of the many "MIBs" (Men-in-Black) in UFO records, who seem to be mysteriously bent on silencing those

who have made contact with saucer occupants--why, nobody knows.

Ted believes the MIBs are the agents of the OIs (Other Intelligences) who, the SIs have told him, are here on earth for nefarious purposes.

Ted thinks he has found the explanation for his "charmed life" since those things happened. As early as 1965, the SIs told him how to put protective and good-luck "bubbles" around himself and his family, which would account for his narrow escapes from death or bodily harm.

But there's more to the picture. In November, 1968, a medium met Ted and notified him that she could see an invisible Indian "guide" behind him, named White Eagle, who acted as his "guardian angel," apparently allocated to him by the SIs.

Furthermore, Ted has had several messages from the SIs saying his "life is too valuable to lose," and that they are "monitoring" him night and day, using a peculiar ray from above that penetrates solid matter so they can observe him anywhere.

Ted can only surmise (some things are never made crystal clear to him) that many of the psi-phenomena that dog his footsteps are manifestations of the SIs guarding him and aiding him in difficult situations.

Once, during an interview regarding a radio appearance, the questioner was hostile but suddenly turned friendly and arranged a long four-hour show for Ted, cancelling other programs. The SIs later told Ted they had sent down a ray to "change his mind."

As if to also remind and reassure Ted at all times that he is their special "ward," the Owens TV set--no matter where they live--has for years shown crawly things like tarantulas superimposed over the screen. These are different TV sets and could not all exhibit the same aberration if they needed repairs. His wife and children see them as clearly as Ted does. The crawly figures are somewhat similar to Twitter and Tweeter who had "grasshopper" forms. Ted thinks these "tarantulas" on TV are some form of lower life in the SI's world, whose images they project as a "sign" to Ted that they are always around.

Another significant event in Ted's life includes his acceptance by Mensa in 1968. Mensa is the group for people who have IQs of 148 or above (genius level). Its members include those from the top two percent of the human race; in short, the intellectual elite.

Ted's basic IQ is 148 but it can vary up to 152. And for those among you who perhaps put Ted down as a "madman" for telling his "wild" story about being the SI's representative--a seemingly paranoid syndrome--it should be noted that the Mensa organization with its lofty intellects is far too canny to be fooled into accepting a psychotic. Thus Mensa, in effect, has put its stamp on Ted's mental balance, clearing him of being any sort of crackpot with vivid hallucinations, illusions, delusions, or what have you. The Mensa tests are exhaustive and thoroughly preclude any "mad genius" gaining their sanction.

Ted Owens, the PK Man, is of sound mind.

72 SAGA

This is further borne out by Dr. Ansel Kowzak, the earlier-mentioned astrophysicist who has also studied UFO phenomena for many years. When he heard Ted's story in 1965, he did not laugh or edge away or call the men in the white coats. He became more and more excited, and, after careful examination of Ted's record of accomplished PK feats, he pronounced Ted to be "one of the world's greatest psychics" and said he "might be the most powerful mind on earth today."

Dr. Kowzak, far from doubting any of Ted's testimony, flatly stated (in writing) that his PK deeds were authentic and also that it was proof positive that the SIs did exist around earth in their flying saucers--Condon Report and Project Blue Book to the contrary. Kowzak was dismayed that the government would not recognize Ted or even acknowledge the presence of aliens in our skies.

In only one area did Dr. Kowzak differ with Ted, saying that Ted was "erroneously" using the SI's PK power for "destructive" deeds of a negative nature. What good would it do the world for the SIs and Ted to create hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and plane crashes?

This is the most difficult thing for Ted to put across to people--that in actuality, the aims of the SIs are to help earth, not destroy it. And that their seemingly "brutal" methods have a definite and positive purpose for good.

Even Ted himself rebelled at times against the disasters planned by the SIs (Ted plans very few of them). As we noted in the previous issue, the astronauts of the Apollo 12 and Apollo 13 moon flights were "saved" by Ted himself. The SIs had grimly informed Ted that their crews would die (to jolt the U.S. into realizing once and for all that some greater "power" existed in space). In his diary, Ted records how he "hotly protested" this until the SIs gave in. They then allowed both astronaut crews to return alive.

Then, in his entry for April 26, 1968, Ted wrote--"SIs told me to write letter . . . would bring down airplanes over cities . . . but I chickened out."

Ted, in fact, refused to PK any planes out of the skies, but the SIs adamantly carried out the program on their own. Many of the plane crashes that have occurred around the world are listed in Ted's files as SI-caused.

But Ted balked even more in this entry of June 6, 1970--"Just had an earthquake that tore up Peru and killed 50,000. God! I contacted Control and quit. But Control argued back . . . if we quit now we've wasted those lives for nothing. The demos (demonstrations) have to be completed to impress U.S. government to cooperate."

Therein lies the crux of the whole SI venture with Ted as the earthly focus of their mighty ODE (PK) powers--they are trying to get the attention of the world, and particularly the U.S. government, in order to help the world out of its many difficulties!

A question immediately pops into mind--why don't they just land on the White House lawn and introduce themselves to the President? In answer to that old chestnut of UFOlogy, Ted writes--"That is so funny, to me. Because nobody knows what it is like to be close to the SIs." Ted describes an experience years ago, which his former wife and her mother shared.

First Pat (his ex-wife) went into the living-room and ran out screaming about a huge shadowy "thing" in there. Pat's mother scoffed and went in to take a look for herself--and she too ran out hysterical. After calming them down, Ted decided to solve the mystery and entered the other room.

"It is an experience that is indelibly engraved on my brain," Ted wrote in a detailed account. "As I went into the room, every step was against a powerful force . . . a force I could feel into the bone. At the same time my hair simply and truthfully stood right up on my head . . . goosepimples covered me, and I gasped for air. I felt like electricity was running through me. I wanted to yell, scream. I made it to about the middle of the room and could stand no more exposure to it (the shadowy figure) and ran out as fast as I could."

Ted draws a simple but eloquent truth from this--"That is the sort of thing the President would be exposed to. He'd last about two seconds." Ted was never able to adequately describe the alien presence, for he later found out the SIs are from another dimension entirely, are invisible, and are only known to us as a vague shadow, exuding terrific forces that no human body can withstand. They seem to have no way of "toning down" these deadly forces.

And for this reason, quite logically, Ted is not a typical "contactee"--he has never met the SIs face to face or taken a ride in their saucerlike spaceships.

And the SIs ultra-alien forms would naturally lead to their desire to contact some human being by ESP alone from afar. That person would then become their "spokesman"--and Ted was chosen. Actually, he was pegged for the job as a child, and the above episode might have been an "experiment" by the SIs, with their forces toned down, that didn't work.

Thus it is Ted who would meet the President and transmit SI messages to him. But the government has never accepted Ted's "credentials" (his mighty PK-feats), much less the many messages from the SIs constantly relayed by Ted. All their efforts were laughed at, forcing Ted and the SIs to draw attention through major PK feats, not nice ones like making flowers shower down on a city, but "destructive" feats. What else would really put fear and wonder in people's hearts?

Ted had one slight ray of hope in August, 1970, when he received a letter from a government official (whose name of course is wrapped in security) who said the government was "interested" and that if Ted could furnish documentation of his PK powers, and also perform some striking PK feat for them exclusively, they might "computerize" his powers and come to some "favorable conclusion."

Typical official doubletalk that means "try and prove it!"

When Ted tried to make further arrangements with that mysterious party, nothing came of it--the same old story. Ted has been "pestering" the CIA, FBI, Secret Service, National Security Council, NASA, and many other government agencies for years for a "fair hearing" in

(Continued on page 74)

(Continued from page 72)

behalf of the SIs, with no result except a chilling silence (plus routine investigations by the FBI which could only clear him of any "maniac" tendencies or plans).

What is the urgent message from the SIs that earthly authorities must heed? The full and stark message?

Through Ted, the SIs have constantly warned that a "great crisis" faces the world, and that they, the SIs, need a "base of operations" in the U.S. in order to stave off that catastrophe.

And now we are coming close to the great revelation Ted recently perceived--just why the SIs here on earth are operating through Ted Owens. What tremendous "crisis" could possibly require their inconceivable supernormal powers?

To give the answer its proper perspective, we must first examine certain key "insights" that came to Ted through the years.

The answer lies partly in the Bible.

Ted scrawled in his diary some years ago--"I was horrified at the death and destruction which ensued (after he had contacted the SIs). I asked them, why such horrendous deeds?"

The SIs gave a rather strange answer: that Ted was the first human being they were able to communicate with since Moses; and that he would find the answer to his agonized question in the Biblical account of Moses.

As we know, Moses warned the Egyptians that "seven plagues" would strike them if they did not free his people, the Israelites, from bondage. When the Egyptian Pharaoh "hardened his heart," the "predictions" of Moses came true--plagues of locusts and vermin and diseases and storms that ravaged Egypt, until the Israelites were released.

Ted saw the analogy with himself--in order to achieve a good thing, Moses had been forced to be the harbinger of evil things, but only because of the stubbornness of the ruthless Pharaoh and his priests (the "authorities" of that era).

Ted also saw that he was akin to a modern Moses. Substitute "U.S. government" for "Pharaoh" and there it was plain as day.

Significantly enough, when Ted and his small daughter were first visited by a low-flying UFO back in 1965 (SAGA, August and September, 1970) it was a pillar-shaped object. Moses led his people through the desert, guided by a "pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night." These are excellent descriptions of today's UFO sightings by day and by night.

However, his role as latter-day Moses did not fully satisfy Ted. Things did not quite fit. He wasn't freeing enslaved people and leading them to a promised land except in a vague symbolic sense. And then, in 1968, came the really blinding insight, when the SIs informed Ted he was partly like Moses but more like Ezekiel.

First of all, as some of you may know, Ezekiel's vision in the Bible is an unmistakably clear description of a flying saucer coming down, with its "wheels within wheels" (or disks) . . . "glowing metal in the midst of fire" . . . "burnished brass" . . . "wings" . . . and many more "technical" terms utterly surprising when read in the scriptures.

Secondly, the voice of the "Lord"--obviously the commander of this imposing UFO--boomed down and told Ezekiel that he must prophesy all sorts of catastrophes that would be visited on the people of that time, who had fallen into decadence.

That should immediately remind you of Ted Owens, for Ted has repeatedly warned that civilization is going downhill morally, with the general breakdown in law and order and the spreading of social conflicts. Can anyone deny the steep rise in crime today, the constant threat of war, juvenile drug-taking to "escape reality," corruption of public officials, race riots, poverty in the midst of affluence, and all the other evils of present-day society?

Hardly anyone believes the "world is still a good place to live in."

But take Ezekiel's day. The UFO-master (Lord) enumerated all the "sins" of the ancient people--oppression of the poor, usury for illicit wealth, whoredom or promiscuous sex, slayings and savage little wars, worship of the money idol, and most of all, pollution of the land.

Who can deny that all these earmarks of a declining culture exist today and are steadily--or rapidly--increasing?

Another analogy between Ted Owens and the prophet Ezekiel is uncanny. . . .

Ezekiel was told to "smite with thine hand, and stamp with thy foot" to cause widespread famine, pestilence, and upheaval--how else but through some mighty "PK power"? Similarly, Ted Owens has been constantly ordered by the SIs to whip up hurricanes, lightning, violent storms.

But why do you think Ted Owens, who often balked at the SI's "holocausts," did not simply bow out and decline their offer to be their "representative?" Ezekiel was plainly warned by the Lord that if he did not give his prophetic warnings and carry out his feats, the blood of the dead would be on his (Ezekiel's) hands. In several diary entries, Ted reiterates that the SIs gave him no other choice--"Carry out our plans or you will suffer." The SIs are not playing patty-cake.

But now we can reveal the full scope of the SIs "grand mission" on earth (akin to the Biblical "angels" and "messengers" of the Higher Power who runs the entire cosmos)--and with it, Ted's ultimate mission.

The SIs made it all clear in the following "message to earth" via Ted Owens (which was ignored by the national press and printed only in a limited-circulation UFOlogy pamphlet)--"Through us you have the opportunity to discover the secrets of space, of faraway places, of advanced technology. But better still you have the opportunity of surviving, for as a race YOU ARE UTTERLY DOOMED AS OF NOW. Many civilizations before you (on earth) have so doomed themselves."

There you have the stark truth, that civilization is doomed unless mankind changes for the better with the aid of the SIs.

Sheer nonsense? The twisted thinking of a "messianic" mind that has gone mad? Someone else, oddly enough, seems to think Ted's mission is somewhat like John the Baptist's.

Dr. Morris K. Jessup, before he died in 1959, was an eminent scientist who also researched UFOs thoroughly. He wrote five penetrating books on UFOs, including UFO and the Bible.

Jessup in that book analyzes portions of the Bible, particularly the Gospel according to St. Mark, Chapter 13, and comes to the conclusion that Christ's prophecies of destruction to the world--when it had become too "evil" to exist--could very likely come true in our time.

"'The imminence of catastrophe," wrote Jessup in 1950, "may be measurable on a comparable (future) scale or on a shorter one. 'Even at the doors' (Christ's warning after all his prophecies of intervening events had taken place) may mean tomorrow, or this afternoon. It may mean next month or next year--perhaps 10 years from now; but it almost certainly does not mean 100 years from now, and perhaps not even 50."

After further analysis of the "time scale," Jessup comes to a shocking conclusion--"If that is correct (his analysis), and if we have a margin of about a generation in which to anticipate destruction, then we can roughly say that something (of world destruction) should be expected within the 30-year period starting sometime in the postwar decade (after WW II)."

He comes to the grim point--"Should we say, then, between 1950 and 1980?"

Now Ted Owens has consistently been warning the U.S. government (and the world through them, presumably) that a great crisis is imminent. Ted has never been given any exact time by the SIs, but he has the urgent feeling it will be soon, within a few years at the most. His warnings from the SIs have more and more included words like--"Tell your people the time is running dangerously short."

Is there a "deadline for doom?" And will it be before 1980 as Dr. Jessup calculated?

At first, Ted thought the SI's warnings might mean to beware nuclear war engulfing the world. But very recently, a new illumination came to Ted from the SIs, and now he knows it will be NATURE'S WAR ON MAN that will wipe out humanity. And "Nature's War" does not necessarily mean the SIs will destroy mankind with storms, but that man himself will bring about his own end.

In Ezekiel, key words appear over and over--pollution, filthiness, fouling, defilement. The Israelites were polluting their environment and their minds.

Are we not doing the same today, asks Ted? Pollution of the air, of water, of the soil; industrial carbon dioxide pouring out in such great volume that it threatens to upset the world's weather balance; mountains of trash and junk piling sky high; litter and debris tossed carelessly to the wind.

But even worse is the pollution of the mind by ever-spreading materialistic, greedy, dog-eat-dog, anti-Christian, soulless doctrines. People want a "piece" of money-making things but never "peace" of soul.

How long can three and one half billion people keep it up, without forever poisoning their dwelling place? And their minds? When animals foul their nest, they must leave and go elsewhere.

If earth is fouled, where do we go?

Hence, Ted Owens, the Ezekiel of the SIs, is not saying the SIs will destroy us. We are doing that job ourselves, in blind stupidity. It will cause a "backlash" by Nature and its natural forces, and the big guns may start soon in the war on man. It's a war man can never win.

And has that war already begun?

The signs? The corn blight that wiped out much of the crop this year... oil pollution of tidewaters... mice and rat rampages in Europe... the starfish destruction of coral reefs in the South Pacific... the violin spider and fire ant in the southern U.S.... smogs in many big cities causing deaths... tests proving radioactive (nuclear) wastes have poisoned portions of the oceans.

All of these and many more may build up to a crescendo of adverse "natural" bombshells all over earth, in time--in a short time. As Ted puts it, "Nature has started to turn its hand against Man. Nature has had it with Mankind and only wants to rid the earth of him."

And who would replace man on earth? Ted has an ominous answer out of the documented files of UFOLOGY. The Mothman, the Michigan Monster, the "little men" humanoids, and the various other non-human creatures seen emerging from flying saucers--they may be SI experiments to find a being able to replace man on earth. They are "monsters" only in our egocentric eyes. In the eyes of the SIs, human beings may be the worst "monsters" known.

Yet the world can be saved!

That's what SI messages through Ted Owens indicate. Suppose the miracle happened. Suppose the U.S. government "unhardened its heart" and backed up Ted. All he asks for is sanction and the means to meet the SIs in person, at some isolated spot where others can't be harmed. Ted himself will somehow be protected from the SI-forces radiated by their pure-energy bodies. Ted would then return with absolute proof of their existence, plus a world plan for reversing the self-inflicted doom syndrome to which all of humanity is heedlessly contributing.

These plans would include, Ted says, a way to totally disarm the world and outlaw war... to end poverty and injustice... to wipe out disease and prolong life... to bring new joy and understanding to human spirits.

A large order? All wishful thinking? Then read the book of Ezekiel in the later chapters, and see what the "Lord" promised his people if they repented. If there is any truth in the Bible at all, those are the kind of magnificent "world reforms" that the SIs perform as "angels."

Ted's personal plans--if the world follows the SI program--are equally altruistic. He yearns to found the Church of Sota, a long-time dream of his. "Sota" means Secrets of the Ages. And in that, Ted includes healing secrets, both for the body and mind. Ted has fully outlined his grand establishment, which will include the Sota Library of Great Books, the Sota Hospital, the Sota Research Foundation (into "faith healings"), the Sota Haven for the Poor, and many other programs that will strive to uplift humanity.

Even with his Church of Sota unborn, Ted for years has still sent out his PK disks to anyone requesting them--free. Each one is "charged and coded" with PK power to aid the particular person receiving it. And it is on record (SAGA, August and September, 1970) that Ted has received thousands of letters from grateful people, stating that "miracle cures" occurred when they wore his disk, or sudden "good luck" came to the despairing.

Ted bears all the cost and effort of making the disks, charging them, mailing them, and writing long sympathetic letters to each claimant. There is a plain and simple word for it--humanitarianism.

Perhaps you believe nothing of what has been written above. You, the reader, have the right to call it all sheer poppycock; the ravings of a demented man with illusions of grandeur, compounded by a messiah complex. But Dr. Jessup had this to say--"Seers and prophets, such as are quoted and written about in the Bible, would be considered crackpots today and reckoned insane."

It's all well and good if you want to call Ted Owens, the SIs' Soothsayer, an insane crackpot.

But suppose... just suppose... that Ted Owens is RIGHT?

sons while the grand old man labored 40 years to displace Sir Gordon Richards--his mounts have earned over 42 million dollars; he has won 82 $100,000 races; he has won 485 races in one season; he led the jockeys' list in races won five times and in money won 10 times; he has ridden six winners in a single day nine times; and his lifetime average is 25 percent, and that's one winner for every four rides!

There is, simply, no one in the same class with him.

It was not my intent to do a biography on Shoemaker--his career has been probed ad infinitum--I was looking for the maelstrom beneath the placid exterior. But after a week of talking with people whose lives touch his I have yet to find anyone who put the knock on him.

Dr. Robert Kerlan, nationally known orthopedic surgeon who administered to Shoe after his two recent, violent spills, regarded me intently for several moments before replying to my inquiry about him.

"He is a giant," he said at last. "A very rare human being. I think Bill could achieve anything he wanted to achieve."

Burt Bacharach, Academy Award-winning song writer, horse owner, tennis player, and actress Angie Dickinson's husband, also left little doubt as to his feelings:

If you're looking for something to spice up a story on Shoe, forget it. He's a class guy. The closer you get to him the better you like him."

Famed trainer Charlie Whittingham, for whom Shoemaker has ridden such outstanding horses as Pretense, Tell, Pinjara and Fiddle Isle, will tell you Shoe is the same person today he was the first time he met him in the paddock at Santa Anita in 1950. "And after all he's achieved that's saying a lot."

Even jockey Alvaro Pineda, a fiery aggressive competitor, could not criticize Shoemaker. "What can I tell you?", he said. "He's a consistently good rider."

"How about more coffee?" Shoe asked, smiling that slow, easy smile, reaching for my empty cup.

"Sorry about that call," he said, "I just couldn't get rid of him."

He sat at the end of the table holding the warm coffee cup to his cheek.

"So, shoot," he said, "but what can I tell you that I haven't told you before?"

I told him what I wanted.

How does a little bit of a guy from Texas grow up so damn well adjusted? Where are the scars from the fights he had to have as an El Paso version of Tom Thumb? Where were the neurotic hang-ups from watching the other kids take the good looking girls to the prom while he quietly went to the movies? Why isn't he psychologically bent?

I've done maybe a half-dozen short pieces with Shoe over the years but have never really been close to him. I wondered, momentarily, if I had been too frank?

But he only smiled.

"I've had to fight for everything I've ever gotten," he said. "So much so that now I guess it's just a way of going. I even had to fight for my life. I was born prematurely, and they tell me that for a while it didn't look like I'd make it. My mother and father are average size so I guess I wouldn't be where I am today if I wasn't premature.

"I had the usual fights in school--yeah, they bugged me a little about size--but I never gave it much thought. I hung around with the bigger kids, and now that I look back at it, I think most of them wanted to protect me.

"We left Fabens, Tex., a little town about 30 miles east of El Paso, when I was about 10 and moved to California. In high school I didn't have many dates, but, honestly, I never thought much about that either. There was always a group of guys who didn't go to the dances and parties, and we'd get together and go to a show and afterwards we'd hang around some of the neighborhood spots. I was small but I always felt I belonged."

He paused a moment and stretched lengthily, his fingers forming fists over his head.

"You want a laugh. I went out for foot- (Continued on page 72)

able holding

" . . . A terrible earthquake will rock South America!"
" . . . Fidel Castro will lose out in Cuba, be assassinated, or die!"
" . . . President Nixon could be very close to death!"

**These** are but a few of the sensational predictions for 1971 from the nation's foremost psychics, clairvoyants, ESP practitioners, and astrologers. It has often been said that momentous events cast their shadows before their occurrence; as testimony to the truth of that saying, these amazing men and women have demonstrated their ability in the past to predict the future.

We may not understand their methods of forecasting, but we can note their predictions and keep score on their hits and misses during the next 12 months. Our participants are listed alphabetically. They are:

**Countess Amaya, Santurce, Puerto Rico, U.S.A.:** Gypsy Markoff Amaya is the well-known former entertainer who survived the 1943 Lisbon Flying Clipper airplane crash. Of the 39 entertainers aboard, 24 were killed. Countess Amaya and actress Jane Froman were among the survivors. The Countess underwent 30 operations to regain her health, made a dazzling comeback in show business, and is now a well-known psychic.

Her predictions for 1971 and beyond include:
* The outlook for the coming year is as topsy-turvy as events of the past 12 months have been. I foresee a trend where our individual rights must be guarded with vigor and courage.
* Expansion for economic growth in the 70s will begin in June 1971; however, money will remain tight until 1972. The signs for money are extremely foggy and very unpredictable.
* Although there are no indications for another world war, defense spending will continue at a peak.
* There will not be enough troops removed from Vietnam to satisfy critics of the war. I also foresee another foreign crisis that will create an emergency for the President and the United States.
* President Nixon: There are dangerous vibrations around the figure of the President, and he could be very close to death. He may also discover that those he believes to be his friends are not acting in his behalf. He must exercise great care due to these adverse vibrations. If anything happens to the President, there will be disaster on the world's stock markets.
* Russia: I see a new leader coming to the fore. China: This nation will be struck by a plague. Cuba: There are strong indications that Castro will be replaced by another man. South America: Fewer revolutions, but financial problems and instability. Middle East: The war will continue, but there are good vibrations from mid-1971 to 1973. Israel will continue to be courageous. England: A great strain will be imposed upon Queen Elizabeth; the event will break her spirit although she will hold out until the last moment.

**Doc Anderson, Rossville, Ga.:** A towering, six-foot, two-inch giant, Doc Anderson is an internationally known psychic, often called the "Living Edgar Cayce." He is an impressive ESP practitioner who has proved his prowess as a prophet. His view of the future includes:
* Business: A pick-up by mid-1971 . . . more strikes in several industries . . . interest rates remaining high "so long as President

Nixon remains in office" . . . the possibility that wage-price controls will become a reality. "I also foresee problems with the U.S. gold supply," Anderson said.

* General U.S. Predictions: A top leader of our country will die in 1971 . . . The Vietnam War will continue into 1971, and it will be some time before we realize our true enemies in Asia are North Korea and Red China . . . I foresee startling revelations swirling around the bankrupt Penn Central Railroad . . . There will be movement toward repression of individual rights in the U.S. . . . Church membership will drop . . . There will continue to be turmoil on the nation's college campuses . . . The "brown-outs" and "black-outs" of utility services will continue into the coming year.
* International Predictions: "This will be a year of great tension in the world," Anderson declared. "We will see Castro's reign end in the near future. There will be continued strife in the Middle East, although Israel will prevail. The key to the Arab-Israeli war has now shifted to the Arab guerilla forces. They hold the true power in the Mideast."

Japan: The old War Lords are starting to rise again. Africa: Continued strife. China: More clashes along the Russian border. I have predicted previously that Russia and China will go to war, and the U.S. and Russia will team up to end the Chinese peril in the Orient. These events are moving toward a climax. India: Famine and strife; unsettled political conditions. Vietnam: More shocking stories about the Saigon government. Formosa: Generalissimo Chaing Kai-shek will die soon. Russia: A change in leadership is forthcoming. Britain: More racial clashes in the headlines. Ireland: Religious conflict dominates the news. Korea: More clashes between U.N. and North Korea forces; trouble is smouldering there.

Quanah Bollen, Peoria, Ill.: "My first psychic experience occurred when I was 19 years old," reported Mrs. Bollen. "However, even as a child I knew things before they took place." She has studied psychic subjects for several years and was ordained in September 1963, in the International General Assembly of Spiritualists. Her predictions for the future are:

* An assassination attempt: I predict that there will be an attempted assassination of President Nixon. A high-powered bullet will pass through the body of a secret service agent and enter into the body of Mrs. Nixon. She will be seriously, but not critically, injured.
* Peace in Vietnam: By March 1971, there will be peace, and the terms will be dictated by the U.S.
* Danger for Howard Hughes: Billionaire financier Howard Hughes will be lost in a plane over a rugged, mountainous region. It will be several days before he is found--alive, but seriously injured.
* Power Struggle in the Catholic Church: I predict that Pope Paul will be taken from this earth in 1971. In early 1972 there will be a great struggle for power in the church.
* Russia-China: There will be border clashes with the Chinese as the aggressors. A possible war: Russia and China could start another war by mid-1971.
* International Predictions: Cuba: I predict Castro will die as violently as he lived. The date: 1971! South America: A devastating earthquake across the top of the continent. Britain: In this coming year, the people of Great Britain will be stunned and shocked by a scandal. This will be followed by tragic deaths that will make news around the world. Japan: Be aware that Japan has not given up her dream of expansion into the Western hemisphere.

Mrs. Bollen also predicts changes in television programming, movies, and plays with less emphasis on nudity, obscenity, and

sex. "The nations of the world are now manipulating and maneuvering for world power," Mrs. Bollen said. "Within five years, I predict they will be fighting nature for survival."

Bertie Catchings, Austin, Tex.: Mrs. Catchings has received considerable acclaim as a "psychic person" in the southwest. The Daily American-Statesman, Austin, Tex., reported that she "has gained considerable local reputation for her ability to predict the future." Mrs. Catchings believes no single psychic receives impressions of total future events. "Things are given in part to different psychics around the world," she said. "We can join these pieces of the puzzle together to see a picture of the future." Her psychic glimpses of the future in 1971 and beyond include:
* An assassination of a high U.S. political figure will occur in 1971.
* Many deaths from an avalanche in France or Switzerland.
* Earthquakes in China, Guam, the Philippine Islands, Alaska, Ecuador, California, and Rumania.
* There will be a major oil fire in Louisiana.
* The Oakland Raiders will be the Super Bowl champions in 1971.

*Topics covered range from: politics, President Nixon will be in danger; to international events, new clashes along the Russian-Red Chinese border; to business, a collapse in the credit card industry; to religion, power struggle in the Catholic Church; to weather, major earthquakes will wrack California, Alaska, and South America; to celebrities, marital problems for Beatle John Lennon and his wife, Yoko Ono, Liz Taylor and Richard Burton, Tiny Tim, Princess Grace of Monaco; and DOZENS OF OTHER PREDICTIONS!*

* There will be a major space disaster in 1971.
* A well-established magazine will be discontinued. This will shock the nation because this is a very popular publication.
* A scandal will be centered around a large oil corporation.
* Arkansas will win the Southwestern Conference Championship and play against Ohio State to decide the national championship. These two teams may tie, or seem to tie. If the tie is broken, Arkansas will be the National Champions.

Malva Dee, West Guilford, Ontario, Canada: Canada's charming seeress is acclaimed for her impressive psychometric talents. Malva is one psychic who feels there will not be world-wide devastation. She believes the future holds the promise of greater understanding and the arrival of true brotherhood among mankind. Her predictions for 1971 and the near future include:
* Heaviness hangs over Elizabeth Taylor, Lyndon B. Johnson, and the Pope. They must consider matters of health very carefully.
* Vietnam: The unrest in the Far East will spread to Laos and Burma . . . The U.S. will be forced to send more troops, rather than less, to the Far East.
* The White House will enforce tighter security measures as violence erupts in Washington. Fire bombs will be thrown at the nation's capitol by a highly organized group with big money behind them. The incident will be a carefully planned maneuver to place the blame on black militants. This same money-backed group will be responsible for a rift between the President and Vice-President.

Not a myth (although it was a dying Mexican's last-gasp directions that led them to the ancient site), this fabulously rich gold mine was last worked in 1935--at the height of the Depression. And back then they managed, with relatively crude equipment, to net thousands of dollars in just a few months--before the "bandidos" drove them off. Incredible as it may sound, the millions they left behind are still there, waiting for someone to reopen the

# CABORCA BONANZA

By Edwards Hay

"Senor Evans, you have been good to me and my people. I am about to die. Although I am more than 100 years old, I suddenly remember as if it was only yesterday, the richest gold mine in all of Mexico."

The year was 1934, and my friend Earl Evans of Douglas, Ariz., was working a silver mine in the Sierra Madres of Mexico, east of the Rio de Bavispe and 28 miles from Moctezuma, Sonora.

Earl realized that his friend, Pablo Miguel, was having a "flashback." Pablo was now clearly remembering when he was seven years old. But the old Mexican was fading rapidly, and Earl had to quickly write down the directions Pablo was giving him or it would be too late.

The closest thing he could find to write on in that primitive silver mining camp was a wrapper from a package of dynamite. A cartridge he pulled from his pocket served as his lead pencil.

after holding my gun at an awkward angle. We moved as soon as we could, relieved to work out our aching muscles. Almost immediately I saw, left-back stage as it were, a single young buffalo bull leisurely skirting the main line of trees. He caught our motion.

I will never know what his intention was, whether it was one of those rare occasions when a buffalo decides to attack unprovoked, or whether it was the fact that the ground sloped from him to me, or whether perhaps he was some kind of herd rear guard, checking against hyenas or lions that might be tailing the herd and thus keyed up for action. For one of those reasons maybe, he came running toward me. I was still very stiff and my hands and arms were just beginning to lose their cramps. I sat down, so that I could support my unsteady left elbow on my knee for better control, and to get a peek at the buffalo's chest. An effective head-on shot at a buffalo is not an easy thing.

When he was 30 feet away I fired. He swerved to the right and stopped, clearly dying on his feet. At the sound of the shot a crashing noise came from the forest, and the entire buffalo herd, about 60 strong, came hurtling down-slope toward us in a full-blown stampede.

I dived for the only vaguely protected spot within reach, a small hump of earth that marked the base of a long-vanished tree, with Kula right beside me. There was no time to do more, and we huddled close together hoping for the best. I could have touched a dozen of the animals as they galloped by, heads bobbing under the weight of the horns. Then they were gone into the bush below us, from which we had come.

In the same general area, there was a buffalo bull I wanted very much. He belonged to a sizable herd, and I had spent many early mornings and evenings trying to get near him. I had even gone so far as to trail the herd all night, hoping to have a better chance with the first light. We would locate the herd in the evening as it came out to graze, then place ourselves on its flank a few hundred feet away and move with it, guided by its sounds.

In the dark, like blind people, we learned to interpret the various goings on by sound. I found this fascinating, and the hunt for my big buffalo became more a pretext than the main pursuit. We would wait until the noises outdistanced us by a few hundred yards, catch up with them, find a comfortable place under some trees and settle down, sleeping now and then.

There seemed to be some danger that we might run into other predators following the herd in the dark (such as lions and hyenas), when we would be at a disadvantage. But as no carnivore got in our way, such worries lost their edge.

One late afternoon, when we had a good idea where the herd would come out of the woods, we sat in the grass some 50 feet away from the forest edge, sheltered from sight by a bush and prepared for an hour's wait. I knew that my bull was often with the first group to come out. With a little luck I may get a very close shot at him.

Sure enough, a little later we started hearing the unmistakable noises of a buffalo herd coming to life after a day's rest in the thickets. There was splashing and the clatter of stones coming from the bed of a little stream in the forest, sucking noises as heavy feet were lifted out of mud, a crackling of branches, a swishing of leaves and terse, sonorous grunts. They were surely coming this way. The wind was right, and I was full of expectation. They would come out exactly where predicted, and if we sat still we would not be seen but we could see well enough.

The bushes moved and a large, wet, black muzzle appeared, sniffing. For a while nothing else happened, then the rest of the head emerged. Against the foliage, it looked a little like a stuffed head hanging on the wall of a trophy room, but it certainly was not my buffalo. It was an old cow, with one horn deformed and pointing backwards. With jerky, nervous little steps she minced out of the greenery and stopped again, sniffing, listening. She was very big, like a bull, and I decided that she must be nearly blind. Even so, the amount of precaution she was taking surprised me.

We sat absolutely still through a long sniffing and listening routine. The cow moved a few steps forward, halted and the reason for her caution came to light. Behind her came a flock of eight calves of assorted sizes, some quite young, others bigger, already with six or eight-inch horns. They came out in a tight little group, shouldering each other out of the way and generally behaving like kids of most mammalian species, including man. When the old cow moved forward, they followed, when she stopped, they staggered to a halt. In this manner, the procession came to within 20 feet of us. The cow stopped once more and turned toward us, realizing there was something wrong but clearly unable to see us properly. We sat like statues, barely breathing while she took several nervous steps toward us.

With the edge of my vision I saw beads of perspiration on Kula's forehead. He was right, I could not allow this to go on much longer. I had been hoping that the cow would pass without spotting us, but now she was obviously worried, aware of our nearness and position. It was anybody's guess whether she would choose to protect her charges through flight or by attacking us. I knew that I would kick myself from here to kingdom-come if I shot her. I had to panic her before she made up her mind, so I sprang to my feet, shouting and waving my arms. The old cow quivered, spun around nudging the calves ahead of her, and a moment later they were gone among the trees. We listened to the racket as the alarmed herd retreated deeper into the forest. They would not come out until after dark and we could not guess where, so we returned to camp.

The country where this happened--Lolgoricn is the name on the map--was the land of milk and honey as far as my wife and I were concerned. When the time came to leave the circular mud huts which I had put up in preference to tents because of the length of our stay, I suggested to Ellen that we make a final tour of the countryside.

We stood on a small ridge overlooking a field that stretched away into the distance. The yellow grass was two feet high, and a few trees were scattered over it. We saw something move close to the ground, in the shade of one of the trees. Not enough was in sight to identify the animal. We decided it must be a warthog but curiosity led us down into the plain.

Cautiously we made our way to a cluster of bushes close to our objective and peered. Lying down peacefully under the tree and looking more or less our way was a bull buffalo of huge size. He was not asleep. He kept turning his head leisurely from side to side, then gazing for a while toward a single point. He did not see us, partly perhaps because he was old. If the distance between his eartips was close to three feet, which is par for a big bull, the spread of his horns must have been well over four feet. Their bases were nearly joined, forming the massive looking boss on his forehead which is one of the glories of the African buffalo bull. This was an exceptional trophy.

A breeze was swaying the long grass, the strong shadows were getting longer and it was a scene of the peace and the might of nature.

Ellen was staring, fascinated by the enormous beast. She whispered, maybe a little too dramatically, "Now I've seen creation." It suited the circumstances.

After some time, the big bull stood up and wandered off in the opposite direction from us, to graze. I slung my gun over my shoulder and we went away.

★ THE END

PREDICTIONS FOR 1971
(Continued from page 21)

* A plane carrying dignitaries will be the target for espionage and only the alertness of a crew member will avert disaster.
* I foresee that Premier Kosygin will be ousted from power in Russia. A new leader will take control. The threat to world peace is not Russia, but Red China.
* Two important U.S. Ambassadors will be kidnapped and held for ransom in South America. They will not necessarily be taken together, but the one kidnapping seems to trigger the other.
* A team of Arctic explorers will disappear into the vast wastelands.
* President Nixon will, I believe, run for office again. He will know conflict within his own party, but I feel his candidacy will be supported.

Joseph DeLouise, Chicago, Ill.: The windy city's clairvoyant crime-buster has had extrasensory awareness since age five. He achieved national attention by predicting on television the collapse of a major bridge--three weeks before the Ohio River bridge disaster at Point Pleasant, W. Va., in December 1967! Since then, he has turned his psychic abilities to the Sharon Tate Murder Case and California's "Zodiac" killer. His psychic reports on the cases were of considerable assistance to the police officials.

"My predictions for the future are very gloomy," DeLouise remarked. "I see revolutions breaking out all over the world: Japan, the Philippines, South America, and the Caribbean areas. I see the same problems for the U.S. and other countries.

"In the coming year I predict there will

be many attempts to bomb and burn police stations," DeLouise continued. "Government installations, banks, and any institution that represents society, will also be a target." Other predictions:

* We will be entering a depression starting in 1970 and ending in 1976. This will be a financial depression that is unparalleled in the history of our nation. Thousands of business firms will be bankrupted and millions of families will be displaced when they are unable to pay the taxes on their homes. The U.S. will face severe problems of unemployment, and the number of jobless will reach as high as 15 million within three years. I also predict the collapse of the unions as we know them today. I also feel that wage and price controls will go into effect within two years.
* There will be great concern in the free world over an impending change of government in Russia.
* There will be a breakthrough in cancer research; this will have something to do with the blood.
* I predict the deaths of three political figures; one will die due to an accident. I also foresee the assassination of certain civil rights leaders in the Midwest. The Black Panthers, and similar groups, will be outlawed.
* Haile Selassie, the ruler of Ethiopia, is in great danger for his life.

Joseph DeLouise also foresees an assassination attempt on the life of Vice President Agnew. "The Vice President will be shot at, but he will not be killed," DeLouise said. "I have seen a speeding car in the shooting, and I believe this will happen in the near future."

The full story of Joseph DeLouise will be published in a forthcoming book by the Henry Regnery Company, Chicago.

**Joseph Donnelly, Sebring, Fla.:** A spiritualist seer, Donnelly retired from an executive position with the City of New York in 1963 and moved to Florida. His psychic talents were first manifested in 1917, and he has studied many areas of the occult. Mr. Donnelly's spirit teachers are of many races, and many religious faiths. "I have never been a professional public medium," he declared. His predictions for our future include:

* There will be a collapse of the credit card business due to overextension of credit to poor risks, unwarranted buying, and unreliable debtors. It feeds inflation and there will be government controls.
* There will be no good news from the stock market for a long time.
* We are rapidly approaching a fascist state. At the time of preparing these impressions (June 1970) I saw wage and price controls within 23 months. Also, control of the unions by government fiat.
* The war in Vietnam will increase in intensity and will continue in surrounding areas. It will last for many years. The Chinese are biding their time to strike.
* The sporadic war in the Middle East could erupt into a major confrontation with Russia. If both sides are not brought to the conference table soon, then look for a serious and more plaguing war than Vietnam.
* There is an underground plot afoot in California to foment armed insurrection to take over the government. The initials of this organization are LARGO. The FBI is aware of their activities.
* The United Nations will go the way of the League of Nations.
* The day of high-priced stars is about over in both movies and television. TV will soon be in decline . . . Nightclubs are in their last throes now . . . Football has replaced baseball as the national pastime. Baseball is past its prime, and many baseball clubs will soon have financial problems.
* The NASA space agency will have more setbacks due to economic conditions and from interference from Unidentified Flying Objects.

**Reverend A. William Goetz, presiding Bishop, National Christian Spiritual Mission, Houston, Tex.:** Born in Milwaukee in 1890, Reverend Goetz is one of the oldest--yet, most active--clairvoyants in the nation. One of the most remarkable feats of his spiritual ministry occurred from 1941 to 1944, when Reverend Goetz walked as Peter walked during Biblical times. "I made four trips from coast-to-coast, carrying no script, no money, no purse," he stated. "I carried nothing except my Bible." Predictions given by Rev. Goetz during trance include:

* The war between the Arabs and Israel will increase until we shall hear and read of things which will be a horror.
* The Vietnam situation will reach a climax in 1971. The U.S. will leave in dishonor because our troops were not allowed to fight to win.
* The Pope will need the prayers of his people because of illness.
* Russia's space program will collapse.
* The earthquake that was mentioned in my prophecies for 1970 occurred recently in the Andes Mountains, of South America. This will be a minor disaster compared to the one that is coming in 1971.
* The U.S. will be struck by three hurricanes in 1971. They will do much damage to the Gulf, South Atlantic, and North Atlantic States. We will have earthquakes in unusual places, and there will be storms out of the ordinary. Chicago and New York will have extremely large fires. They will be larger than the Chicago fire of years ago.

**David Hoy, who is known as the "Grand Panjandrum of ESP,"** is a former Baptist minister who encountered a series of dramatic experiences indicating he was endowed with the gift of ESP. Today, Mr. Hoy is popular on the lecture circuit as well as nightspots such as the Playboy Clubs. He has lectured to executives of U.S. Steel, RCA Whirlpool, Bell Telephone, and many other large corporations. Here are a few of his many predictions for 1971:

* I feel May 1971, will go down in history as a month of major change in Soviet foreign policy.
* I sense a plot for blowing up the Statue of Liberty. The scheme will be thwarted by the FBI in February 1971.
* I prophesy that President Nixon will announce plans to visit Russia during 1971.
* I predict that the cave-in of two large dams, one in California, one in Mississippi, will cause flooding in both states during the Spring of 1971.
* I see startling news of Mafia contacts in a high government agency that will stir the nation in March 1971.
* I forecast that a nuclear sub base will be discovered in Cuba during the summer of 1971.
* I have been predicting since 1965 that the war in Vietnam will be over by late 1971, when it will be settled by negotiation.

David Hoy predicts the following good news during the coming 12 months: No assassinations in the U.S., no severe recession, no major California earthquakes, no crashes of a 747 airliner, and no major blackouts.

**Irene Hughes, Chicago, Ill.:** The predictions of Irene Hughes have consistently placed her in the top ranks in the international prediction world. Her predictions are always printed well in advance of the event in her weekly newspaper column. From her offices in Chicago, Mrs. Hughes offers counsel and advice to people from all walks of life. A few of Mrs. Hughes predictions include:

* I predict that much talk will center around controls or methods of controlling the news, which means the beginning of oppression and suppression of the news media. On the other hand, an innovative type of magazine format that will appear in 1971 will prove to be highly successful.
* There will be changes in the space program which will allow for two major trips in 1971. One will involve a fire, which will not be totally devastating.
* The stock market faces a critical low trend in the spring of 1971. A rough year all the way through for the market.
* The accidental death of a movie star will provide startling news.
* The ties between Russia and Red China will begin to loosen to such an extent that they become entirely separate.
* With the current rise of neo-Nazism, Germany will be on the march again within 25 years.
* There will be earthquakes throughout the year--again in and near Iran, Japan, Alaska, South America, and various parts of the U.S., touching upon Canada.
* Red China will become more deeply embroiled in the Middle Eastern war.

**Al Manning, The ESP Laboratory, Los Angeles, Calif.:** Al Manning graduated magna cum laude in 1950 with a degree in Business Administration from University of California (L.A.), and he is one of the most unusual people in the predictive field. A practicing psychic of considerable repute, Manning prefers to encourage others to develop their latent ESP talents. On June 8, 1970, a seance was held, and these predictions were made through Al Manning:

* We look now upon the economy of the U.S. and find 1971 yet another nervous year for the stock market. But, through the nervousness and worry, we find a general up-trend without the very deep valleys found in 1970.
* The sleeping dragon (China) rattles

her tail and breathes fire, but this is for show. We find no major confrontations that shed great blood between China and any of her neighbors . . . There will be a replacement of their leader as Mao will either be cast aside or will die.

* President Nixon's plan to withdraw American troops from Vietnam seems to continue gradually in 1971, not to the complete satisfaction of the peace forces, but it is in a continual direction of progress.
* We feel that Jacqueline Onassis will reach toward separation from the present husband.

Dr. Ernesto A. Montgomery, Los Angeles, Calif.: Dr. Montgomery, pastor of the Universal Metaphysical Church, was born in Jamaica on October 2, 1925, of royal Ethiopian parentage. Following his graduate studies, Dr. Montgomery served in the British Armed Forces and with police departments in Britain and the U.S. His psychic talents manifested themselves early in life, and he has predicted the future for such world luminaries as Winston Churchill, Anthony Eden, Princess Margaret, and many others.

In addition to his ministerial work, Dr. Montgomery holds healing services in his church and sponsors healing crusades throughout the western states. He is also the executive director of the Youth Opportunities League, an organization to assist young people. He also operates a "hot-line" phone service for people who are in trouble. His forecasts for the future include:

* Former President Lyndon Johnson will suffer a "heart attack" in 1971.
* I predict race relations in the summer of 1971 will take a downward trend with race rioting in New York, Cincinnati, Dallas, Miami, and Alabama. Martial law will be declared and damages from rioting will run into millions of dollars.
* I predict there will be a new U.S. Military involvement in 1971.
* I predict that as a result of confrontation between the Red Chinese and the Russians, a new Korean crisis, the continuous war in Vietnam, riots, and the destruction of property, and confrontations between radicals and the police, the stock market will take a plunge. This will hamper the economy of the nation.
* There will be continued hostility in the Middle East, with U.S. troops landed there.
* I predict the East Germans will stop all traffic to Berlin, prompting another airlift and a new East-West confrontation.
* I predict that King Hussein of Jordan will be overthrown and a Castro-type dictatorship will replace the monarch.
* I predict that birth control pills will soon be outlawed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Dr. Montgomery also forecasts marital problems for Beatle John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono, Liz Taylor and Richard Burton, Tiny Tim, Princess Grace of Monaco, and Audrey Hepburn. He also predicts several deaths among Hollywood stars.

Reverend Marion Owens, pastor, The Temple of Light, New York, N.Y.: Reverend Owens' psychic gifts have been widely reported in numerous publications. Marion Owens attended New York University's School of Journalism and also completed nine years of post-graduate work in Business Administration. She has also attended Hunter College and Columbia University.

She became interested in developing her psychic talents and is now pastor of the Temple of Light church, a Spiritualist Church, affiliated with the Independent Associated Spiritualists. Rev. Owens was the channel for these "predictions from the spirit world":

* Curfews, as of old times, will be established in many localities to restrain people from venturing forth during the night hours.
* War in some form will continue in the Asiatic region. We predicted nine years ago that the war in Vietnam would last for 10 years before it would be interrupted and transferred to another region close by. This will come to pass in the coming year, although some troops will continue to remain in Vietnam.
* The draft will continue.
* The Third World War is in the offing.
* A partial withdrawal of U.S. Forces from the Mediterranean will take place in 1971. There will be a considerable withdrawal of U.S. troops from European countries.
* Interest rates will soar in the U.S. and banks will be frantic for customers to invest large sums. Banks will need a flow of money to offset bankruptcies and other deficits.
* The President will call upon Congress during the immediate future to enact laws freezing salaries and prices.
* New York City will witness an uprising of persons of Spanish derivation, especially Puerto Ricans, who feel they have been discriminated against as U.S. citizens.
* You will read about slumps in utility services: lack of controls, defects in service, and the inefficiency of the Post Office will become a political issue.
* Inflation, until it is controlled, will be the chief problem in what will be more than a recession.

Ted Owens, Norfolk, Va.: Known as the "UFO Prophet," Ted Owens claims to receive his glimpses of the future through the SIs--Space Intelligences. He has documented more than 200 predictions during the past six years, sending his forecasts to writers, journalists, and news media in advance of the actual occurrence. Owens' unusual story was published in the August and September issues of SAGA.

"Time is a fooler when it comes to predicting," Ted Owens declared. "I am not sure of the order in which these things will occur. I am sure that they will occur." His predictions:

* There will be an accidental nuclear explosion in the U.S. that will cause havoc. I believe it will occur in the southern Midwest.
* I see the White House in flames. Washington, D.C. will be a no man's land. Militants will even poison the water reservoirs.
* President Nixon will not finish his term. Something most unusual will occur, and he will either resign or be forced out of office.
* The wealthy citizens of the U.S. will lose their riches. I can see them shaking their heads in stunned disbelief, trying to imagine their lives ahead of them. I see empty houses everywhere, and empty towns, as people who have lost their jobs wander aimlessly. Everyone is broke. Business is broke.
* I foresee the time when the U.S. will be virtually leaderless. The total government structure will begin to break down . . . Our military will be confused, with general against general, admiral against admiral . . . There will be millions of cars stalled on the streets, with no gas and no repair parts . . . People by the millions will "head for the woods" to escape the cities . . . The cities will be deadly jungles--virtually deserted except for armed gangs of killers, mostly blacks . . . It is at this point that a new Civil War begins . . . whites against the blacks, both races fighting without mercy.

We can only hope that these fearful prophecies of the future do not come true.

Owens reports that our only hope to avert such disasters is to receive help from the SIs--UFOnauts who are now making friendly overtures toward us.

Lasca and Harold Schroeppel, Oak Park, III.: Lasca Schroeppel holds a Ph.D. in physiology and has been a student or a faculty member of four midwestern universities. Harold Schroeppel received his graduate training in chemistry at the University of Notre Dame and has worked full-time as an analytical chemist in various industries. During WW II, he was a flying radio operator and mechanic with General Chennault's famed "Flying Tigers" in China.

"We were not born psychic," they declared, "and we believe psychism can be taught. We are primarily dedicated as teachers in this field." Lasca Schroeppel's direct psychic predictions include:

* In the fashion world, there will be trends toward freedom of choice of styles.
* In student rioting, more avenues will open for professors to hear students, and they will both realize their respective roles.
* In education, there will be a re-investigation of existing systems by Federal authorities. (Psychically, I see the detectives "first degree" lamp, she stated.)

The astrology based predictions for 1971 include:

* The pressures around Senator Ted Kennedy; the heavy effort to subvert young people; the turmoil in the churches; and the continual breakdown of centralized planning when it gets over-extended, i.e., one man walks through a computer room with a magnet and kills a huge company.
* There is a plan now in motion (June 1970) to kidnap one of Jackie Onassis' children. The motive is political, not individual. Jackie Kennedy Onassis will find that great wealth brings more danger than it does prestige.
* Mayor Daley will lose his next election in Chicago. He will get "clobbered" on the police and bribery issue.
* Several attempts will be made on the Pope's life. The outlook for him personally looks grim. There may also be an attempt to destroy Vatican City.
* A revolutionary group headquarters in New York will be uncovered. This group will be found to be actively engaged in destroying our country.
* Other Predictions: Earthquakes in the Philippines, Japan, Malay states, and New Zealand . . . I feel Alaska is due for another good shake . . . Prices will keep rising . . . Plane hi-jackings will continue and several hi-jackers will be killed . . . New feet will land on the moon in 1971 . . . Atomic Energy will be used for the excavation of a harbor or canal this year.
* Political assassinations will remain at about the same level. About 70 to 100 attempts will be made on President Nixon's life. There will be more assassinations in South America!

LaVerne Shaw, Tinley Park, III.: Mrs. Shaw is the mother of four children who has been gifted with psychic powers all of her life. "I was an orphan, and I have been doing psychic readings for people since I was 13 years old," she related. "Prophesying dreams is very easy to me. I was instructed entirely through dreams to reproduce what I was shown so that others might see and know."

Mrs. Shaw is forthright about the problem of timing predictions: "I can't be phony about dates," she said. "I can't date these predictions because the time is not always given to me." Some of her predictions are:

* A member of the Royal family will marry a commoner as his uncle did. Because of this event, a change may come about in the Royal system.
* There will be an attempted assassination of a prominent black leader by a woman of his own race. This will fail, but the victim's eyesight will be affected.
* Another large state will legalize abortion.
* There will be a breakthrough in cancer research and a cure for some types of this illness will be found within a year.
* A person in high office will make an attempt on his own life.
* Marijuana will become legalized in some states.
* An official of a state will be caught using state funds illegally. His apprehension will create a national scandal that will have an effect on an election.
* In 1972 or 1973 there will be a severe earthquake in California. I also foresee a quake in the Midwest.

Cora Sitrusis, Sitrusis School of Astrology, Denver, Colo.: Cora Sitrusis is a graduate of Stephen's College, holds a bachelor of science degree and has done advance studies at Germany's University of Heidelberg. "I began studying astrology in 1963 under Dr. Frederic Mazain, a contemporary of Max Heidel, one of the world's greatest astrologers," she reported. "I feel compelled to bring astrology up to the scientific level where it should be, and once was, in the past." She operates her school of astrology and has a private practice. Her astrological predictions for education in 1971 are:

* It is my belief that the turmoil on campus and in our schools will intensify in destructiveness, disruption, and scope. This will be particularly noticeable during the semester change at the end of January 1971.
* Beginning the week of May 17th, there appears to be a general rebellion of the entire student body of the U.S. This could take an aspect similar to civil war. It is my belief that from May 17th through June 30, 1961, we will see much bloodshed on our campuses.
* The uprising will lead to many replacements on the teaching staffs, administrative heads will roll, and a complete transformation of our educational system will ensue. It is my belief that many of our educational facilities will be closed--some permanently, others for the summer semester.

"I believe this summer of 1971 ends our student rebellion," Cora Sitrusis declared. "I sincerely hope that my interpretation of the chart for the U.S. in the educational area is completely wrong. However, when you have the Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Mars all in square aspect to Saturn, as we have in the 1971 United States chart, you can expect the indications I have given here."

Paul Twitchell, Eckankar-Asost, Las Vegas, Nev.: "Any person can predict the future if they have mastered the art of soul travel," reports Paul Twitchell, the world's leading authority on the spiritual philosophy of Eckankar. "ECK teaches the chela, or student, to transcend his physical form and explore the spiritual worlds in his soul body."

The seer arrived at these predictions through the ECK method of prophesy. "This is known as ECK-Vidya," he stated. Twitchell travels extensively throughout the world to meet with his followers. His predictions include:

* Greece will again be torn by riots and a bloody revolution during 1971.
* Heavy earthquakes will shake San Francisco during April 1971, causing some destruction. There will be panic and rioting among the citizens. Many people will leave the city permanently to make their homes in other places.
* Racial troubles will break out more widely during the summer of 1971 in most of the metropolitan areas of the country.
* The announcement of Tricia Nixon's engagement will be made during the middle part of the year.
* There will be another jump in prices for food, shelter, and clothing.
* Everyone will be happier because of the uptrend on the stock market and the general economy.
* There will be a break-up in the Hanoi government in spring 1971.
* There will be serious repercussions in China following the death of Mao Tse-tung in the late Spring of 1971. Civil war will rock the Chinese mainland and Russia will be blamed for the destructive riots.
* President Nixon will make a decided change in his cabinet during 1971, in hope that it will give him a better administrative record. He wants to run again for the Presidency in 1972.
* The death ray will be the next weapon which the military forces of the world will develop.

Ron Warmoth, New York City and Hollywood: Mr. Warmoth has read the Tarot cards on television for Garry Moore, for other famous celebrities, and unemployed youngsters needing advice on their future.

"I don't believe the Tarot can be used for predicting definite happenings," Ron Warmoth revealed. "However, it can reveal approaching trends. Distinct future happenings must be done through psychic projection of the Tarot reader." His Tarot-psychic predictions include:

* There will be race riots in Trenton and Atlantic City, N.J., during the summer.
* There will be an earthquake in Wyoming in the early summer.
* War in the Middle East will be stepped up in 1971. The U.S. will become involved during the early part of the year.
* A general recession in the U.S. economy will occur in 1971.
* Cuba will be in an underground revolution, striving to overthrow Castro.

SPORT MAGAZINE JULY, 1971

SPORT TALK BY RAYMOND HILL

**THE PK MAN**

To all Baltimore Bullet fans, a plea for justice: Don't blame the team's failure in the NBA championship series on Lew Alcindor or the Big O. Don't blame it on the Baltimore players, either. Put the blame where it belongs. Blame it on Ted Owens.

How's that? Ted who? Just a moment, fans. Ted Owens happens to have super-human power. By simply concentrating, Ted Owens says, he can control events anywhere on earth or in space--all without leaving his living room. And when the Bullets made Ted Owens mad, he used his power.

It happened during the first quarter of the second playoff game. The Bullets were trailing the Bucks, but not by much, when telecaster Keith Jackson mentioned that "a man in Virginia has offered to cast the evil eye on Milwaukee to help Baltimore win." The man from Virginia (Norfolk) was 51-year-old Ted Owens and he had made that offer to Bullet coach Gene Shue, who politely declined it. "That was bad enough," says Owens, "but when Keith Jackson made it public on TV, I immediately called the Baltimore Sun and told them: 'I'll wreck the Bullets in the second half. Watch it. I'll make them miss their baskets and I'll throw their timing completely haywire.'" The Bullets trailed by four at the half; they lost the game by 19. The rest of the series was a Milwaukee laugh-in.

"I have stumbled on a way to tap powers from another dimension," says Ted Owens, "not the dimension we live in. I have about 150 techniques, or usages, of the power which I lump under the general heading, 'PK.' Now that's a little misleading, because PK, as it's known in scientific circles, is psychokinesis (the power of controlling physical objects by the mind only). It's misleading because psychokinesis is just one of my 150 usages."

How did he come by this power? He says solemnly that he inherited it as a child; it was the gift from a race of superintelligent beings from that "other dimension." Owens cannot readily account for the fact that he and nobody else was the recipient of this magic, but he is using it to predict events and to change the course of history, of sports history at least. He claims to be 85 percent accurate at foretelling events. For instance, he warned the government of the great East Coast blackout of 1965 ten days before it happened. He predicted lightning would strike the Apollo 12 spacecraft during launch in 1969, and it did.

Because of his interest in basketball (he's a big Earl Monroe fan) and football, he has been PKing sports events on TV for the last ten years. Not that he needs television to make it work. "Suppose," he says, "there's a big game and they decide to black it out. All I have to do is draw a square on a card, put a team's name in it, stare at it and project what I want to happen to them and--pluto!--that's it."

In the early 1960's Owens began contacting pro football teams and offering his extraordinary services (for a big fee, of course). Most NFL clubs at least answered his letter. One, the Philadelphia Eagles, ignored him. So Owens immediately "doomed" owner Jerry Wolman, coach Joe Kuharich and the whole team to a life of misery following the 1967 season. Wolman is gone, Kuharich is gone and, in the latest bit of Owens' wizardry, quarterback Greg Barton, the man Philadelphia was depending on so much to lead the team back this fall, defected to Canada.

The New York Jets were nasty to Owens, too. Several months before the 1970 season, Owens sent the Jets a telegram stating that he would hurt the team through injuries to several key players. Well, you know what happened.

Feeling stronger than ever, Owens sent letters to 13 NFL teams last February, announcing his intention to hex

**WHAT ARE THESE MEN DOING?**

During a game against Houston last April Dodger catcher Bill Sudakis (the hatless player, far left) lost a contact lens. The action came to a standstill, as players and umpires combed the AstroTurf. It was never found, and Sudakis left the game.

VIEWPOINT SOUTH

BY PAUL HEMPHILL

"Tell you how I wound up here," Scoopie Chappell said, scratching his crew cut and grinning like a little boy. "That was 1950 and I'd won ten straight games for Alex City, when they got this second baseman from a Class-B league and asked me to go on the disabled list so they could make room for him. It was just before a game with LaGrange. I'd already pitched batting practice. So I told 'em to go to hell and they released me on the spot. I walked across the field and signed up with LaGrange, took a uniform off somebody, and went out and beat Alex City, 5-4, in ten innings. And I struck out that second baseman to end the game."

It had been a long time since anybody had asked him to get out his scrapbook, or to tell stories about those days. He is 50 years old now, a freelance house painter in the sleepy west Georgia town of LaGrange. He lives in a rented frame house up the hill from the textile mill. "Seems like I've spent my whole life living in a mill village," he says. Now and then, in the taverns or the barber shops, somebody in town will recognize him. But to most people, especially those who are under 30, he is simply Marvin Chappell, the house painter.

Has it really been that long? It seems only yesterday that the small towns of the South were throbbing with minor-league baseball. Nearly every town of any size had a minor-league club--the state of Georgia alone once had 22--and the biggest men in town were not the businessmen or the mayor but the .400 hitters and the fireballing pitchers. One of the best leagues was the eight-team Class-D Georgia-Alabama, which was stocked with wide-eyed rookies making $150 a month and fading veterans averaging twice that.

It was in this league that Scoopie Chappell found reasons to live. He began to pitch for Alexander City, Alabama, in 1947, after the war, when he was 26. Over a five-year span there and at LaGrange he won 85 games. When he gave up only one hit pitching a doubleheader, he made Ripley's Believe It Or Not. People who remember say he might have gone on up the ladder except for his late start, because he could hit and he had a fastball that hummed. "After that no-hitter a scout came around, but when they told him I was 28 he never talked to me." The league died in 1951. Scoopie was 30, was making only $300 a month and had five kids, so he took a job at the mill.

Now he is left with a scrapbook, and memories. There are only two minor-league towns in Georgia now, and even the mills don't have teams anymore. He follows the Atlanta Braves on radio and television, but baseball isn't the same when you aren't involved. "Whenever you threw the knockdown you made sure the catcher got the ball back to you fast so you'd have a weapon if the hitter took it serious," he cracked, sitting on a lawn-chair on his front porch in the afternoon sun. We must have been talking for three hours, swapping stories and laughing over midnight escapades. Then I told him about the scout who once said the death of the minors was merciful from one standpoint--it had eliminated the career bush leaguer, the "baseball bum."

Scoopie squinted and thought it over for a while. "Well, I might've been a bum," he said, "but I'll tell you one thing. That was five years I didn't have to work in no textile mill."

them because they either ridiculed him publicly or, worse, ignored him. The jinxed teams are Philadelphia ("it's a year-by-year thing now"), Kansas City, Dallas, the Jets, Chicago, Baltimore, Washington, San Diego, Denver, Los Angeles, Miami, Boston and Houston. These teams, according to the PK man, will be lucky to salvage a winning record in 1971.

At least one owner got the message. The Colts' Carroll Rosenbloom, shortly after visiting John Unitas in the hospital (yes, Owens' takes full credit for PKing the Unitas injury) dashed off an urgent letter to Norfolk. "If you will please advise me," Rosenbloom's letter read, "as to a course of action . . . I will do whatever I can to comply." Give me a job, came the reply. But the Colts' boss wrote back: "My fellow owners would never forgive me for signing you up." He suggested Owens see Pete Rozelle. Owens wrote the Commissioner. No answer. Owens says now: "Either I get to sign up or I'll wreck the whole pro football mechanism."

You're free to believe or not about Ted Owens. But if the 1972 Super Bowl pits Buffalo against Atlanta . . .

HE CAME BACK

It happened on June 2, 1967. Bob Johnson, then a 24-year-old pitcher for the Williamsport (Pennsylvania) Mets of the Eastern League, went motorcycling with a teammate, Jerry Hinsley, after a game. They traveled along a mountain road overlooking the town. Johnson's bike, a new one, was giving him trouble and he fell a good ways behind his pal. He was going about 65 or 70 miles per hour when he hit a pile of gravel on the road. Johnson was thrown from his fish-tailing machine. The motorcycle flipped over and landed on his left leg.

Hinsley got Johnson to a nearby hospital in a hurry. He was conscious all the time, unable to take his eyes off the bloody, mangled mess that had

THE CHATTANOOGA TIMES, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1972.

# 'The Only Man in History Who Has Done the Things I've Done Is Moses'

"I put Bill Bell in professional football and I'm gonna take him out. And any team that hires him will be absolutely zonked."

That's the voice of a man scorned. It's the voice of a man that I'm not going to fiddle around with. I'm thankful that he said he likes me. I want to introduce you to Ted Owens, a famous Virginia psychic who says he may be the only hope for the United States, whose actions are controlled by the UFOs, who keeps in practice by controlling professional football and who claims all he has done is fully documented.

Bill Bell is an example close to home. Bell, as you know, is the kicker for the Atlanta Falcons and his failure to convert a 10-yard field goal two weeks ago cost the Falcons a victory against New England.

"Bill Bell came down to Norfolk over a year ago," Owens said, "and begged me to use my powers to get him a job with the Falcons. He said he had tried for two years without success. I got him on the team and he wrote me back and said he didn't believe I did it. He also wrote a national magazine and called me a fake. He blew the one-in-a-million field goal attempt. And, it's gonna get worse for him. Wait and see."

## A Blast From Chicago

Ted Owens was insulted last week in a national newspaper article in which he was blasted by Chicago psychic Joseph DeLouise. The Chicago seer said Owens was hurting legitimate ESP's image and "we psychics have enough trouble with the skeptical public without having some guy popping off with phony claims." He went on to say that if what Owens says is true, he should go to jail and that guys like Roman Gabriel or Johnny Unitas or Joe Namath should punch him in the mouth.

"That was a naughty article," Owens said, the writer (Tom Valentine of Chicago) is way down with pro football. He's trying to get someone to nit-pick with me. That writer doesn't know the whole picture. If someone has the power I have, it's unlimited. A man who can control weather, radar installations, military exercises. A man who can knock down 12 planes with his mind; this is the kind of guy that governments get together with and work with."

Ted Owens feels he can help pro sports teams. He doesn't

mess with the amateurs. If the pro sports teams refuse his help, he talks with outer space intelligences and they direct him as to what happens next.

Did you ever wonder.
- Why the Baltimore Bullets lost four in a row in the playoffs against the New York Knicks a few years ago?
- Why Unitas and Tom Matte were out of action at the same time?
- Why Carroll Rosenbloom traded the Baltimore franchise and moved to the Los Angeles Rams?
- Why Philadelphia teams never win?
- Why the Virginia Squires lost superstars Charlie Scott and Julius Erving?
- Why Roman Gabriel suffered a collapsed lung and his backup quarterback's house burned?
- Why the Cleveland Browns are struggling?
- Why the Chicago Bears aren't winning?
- If the Dallas Cowboys will repeat as Super Bowl champs?

### Watch What You Say

Ted Owens has the answers and here's the way he tells it:

"During the first quarter of the first playoff game the Baltimore announcer said I had offered to help the Bullets, but they didn't want to have anything to do with me. I called a Baltimore newspaper and told them that the Bullets had this game and three to go; that it would miss baskets and lose the games. I sent Coach Gene Shue a letter to that effect. Well, the second half they fell apart and won none of the games, just like I said."

As for Baltimore and Rosenbloom, Owens said Rosenbloom actually wanted him to help the Colts but NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle wouldn't let him. Earlier, however, Owens claims he wrote Rosenbloom and the owner had Coach Don McCafferty answer him. "Standby for a ram," he wrote Rosenbloom, and shortly thereafter Unitas ruptured an achilles tendon and Matte underwent an emergency appendectomy. Owens hits out at quarterbacks first.

"I don't get any pleasure in dealing with these teams, but I am trying to block a nuclear war between the U.S. and Russia and I need money to buy tools for the UFO. I'm not a mean guy," Owens said.

"To get away from me," continued the psychic, "Rosenbloom swapped teams. I wrote him and told him it wouldn't do him any good. A week later Gabriel's lung collapsed and a few days later his backup quarterback's house caught fire."

### Philadelphia Has Had It

Owens says he's the only man who can stop these pitfalls and all can be saved except Philadelphia. He claims to have sat in the press box with two sportswriters as witnesses and caused a man (Tom Woodeshick) to be thrown out of a game in five minutes. Lloyds of London called the odds of it happening at 100,000 to one. The Cowboys mauled the Eagles and the ball has never taken such crazy bounces. "I had to show them I could perform a miracle and I did. I've performed over 400 miracles. When's the last time the 76ers or the Phillies won? That town's had it," he said. The pro hockey match at Philadelphia Friday night was postponed because of unfit ice.

The psychic has offered the Squires his services. The Squires refused and have lost Scott and Erving and have lost more than twice the number they have won this year.

It takes a good memory to remember when the Chicago Bears last won. They are on Owens' list. His primary target now is the Cowboys. "I've kept the Super Bowl champion from repeating now for four years and the Cowboys will not win it this year. The reason is that I'm proving myself. This power is being used in a negative way because the trouble is nobody believes you have it if you don't."

The word I'm giving you this morning is to don't mess with Ted Owens. He was kicked off a radio show in Cleveland

and decided to give the city a lesson with a heat wave. He says he wanted lightning and intense heat and, with six scientists observing his work, it happened two weeks later. The heat buckled sidewalks and, to top if off, city hall got dozens of calls from citizens who claimed the UFOs were talking to them. The Browns haven't set the football world afire, either.

Owens claims a farmer by the name of David Watson in Saskatchewan hired him to make it rain so he could get his sunflower crop out. The rains came. Then, with a freeze expected last month, Watson needed heat. He got heat and harvested a fine sunflower crop.

A Slip of the Mind
The noted seer says he has just finished controlling a radar station with his mind at Cape Charles. "It was linked with a computer and I proposed 25-50 UFOs on the screen. There was some doubt. I told the government agent to let me check to see if it was my mind. I hit the screen with all the power of my mind and it lit up as the arm swept around." The government agent signed a notarized statement to what he saw.

Suddenly, Owens exclaimed, "Good lord! I never thought about it, but the power I put over this area could knock down planes and ships." Owens then remembered that since that time 12 planes have crashed in or around Chesapeake Bay, an aircraft carrier caught fire and lightning blasted the entire area.

Ted Owens was one of several psychics asked to make one prediction for 1972 a year ago. He predicted (and it's recorded in a book) that UFOs would make bodies of water attack human beings. "They now call this the year of the floods. I warned people about this last year. South Dakota was hit hard and right here in Virginia we have been called a disaster area three times."

Owens doesn't worry that DeLouse, his fellow psychic, is rapping him. "I'm an expert in judo and I've fought in the ring and that guy's only a hairdresser.

"I'm a family man and I'm not mean. The UFOs have trained me from childhood. I can back up what I say and do with documented evidence. I'm not petty. I have powers and won't use them against an individual without UFO permission. The UFOs determine what is hexed. I explain to them why and they check it out. I've healed a lot of people.

"The only man in history who has done the things I've done is Moses."

That's Ted Owens. Before he hung up the phone he said he liked me.

Boy, am I glad!

Note, Contacts... I will be on the Allan Dale Radio Show, KITE, San Antonio, by phone, for an hour, Oct 31 at 8 PM my Va. time, 7 PM Texas time... if you'd like to listen in. Owens

(Continued from page 54)
pure-energy intelligences from another dimension unless it was thoroughly programmed, like the mind of Ted Owens. Logical, understandable, rational, Owens's whole approach to the mystery in which he finds himself is scientific and not mystical as with the contactees. This is clearly seen in Ted Owens' own "SI Glossary" in which he defines various ODEs (Other Dimensional Effects):

Nature's Mailbox--A visual-image "mailbox" into which he puts "letters" to be acted upon--as when requesting a storm.

Angel Box--ODE container which releases good intelligences which can be assigned to sick or hurt persons (apparently the mechanism by which the PK-disks work).

PK Bubble--An ODE force placed around a person, thing, city, or even the U.S., to perform a specific task (which may be one clue to how Owens manipulates his PK powers)

White Box, Rainbow Door, Messenger Units, Sound Force PK, Weight PK, Electromagnetic Bubble, Laser PK, (other ODEs based on scientific extrapolations of known forces and energies.)

Let us conclude with some more sensational PK feats and fulfilled predictions made by Ted Owens in the past six years, which far exceed the accomplishments of such nationally known psychics as Jean Dixon and Peter Hurkos.

On June 1, 1966, in a written notice to the CIA and other agencies, Ted Owens predicted an early hurricane, within days, long before the traditional hurricane season. Loud laughter from the hurricane center must have turned into gasps when on June 7th, Hurricane Alma rose in wrath, the earliest Atlantic hurricane ever to hit the U.S. mainland.

One June 18, 1966, Owens' predicted that violent electrical storms would soon strike the Philadelphia area. By the end of June and into July, that city was bombarded by electrical bolts seldom seen before. During this period, with a group of friends, Owens pointed and said a lightning flash would strike over a certain building--this happened within minutes. Owens made it strike there, he claims.

It will definitely interest UFOlogists to know that the following "classic" sightings of saucers and occupants were predicted in advance by Ted Owens, and in some cases "ordered" by him.

* The "Michigan Monster" case of August 1966, in Monroe County, where Christine Van Acker, a 17-year-old girl and her mother came upon a hairy, black, seven-foot monster.

* The "meteor" of August 19, 1966, which was so bright that it cast shadows as it flashed across the skies over Pennsylvania and Ohio. Puzzled astronomers admitted it was too slow for a genuine meteor. It was, says Owens, a spectacular UFO that he had "promised" would manifest itself over Pennsylvania.

* The semi-tragic tale of the saucer named "Floyd"--a police code name. In April 1966, State Police officer Dale Spaur and several other troopers pursued a low-flying saucer from the state of Ohio into Pennsylvania, without ever catching up. The sighting came to haunt Dale Spaur to the point where he lost his job and his wife. He became a broken-down hermit because he, or one of the other policemen, had fired at the UFO, which Ted Owens had prophesied would mean the police would be "without one officer."

* The "Penninsula Monster" at Erie, Pa., on July 31, 1966, where Betty Jean Klem and three other hysterical teen-age friends in a car were accosted by a hulking gorilla-like creature, which later flew off in a saucer.

But of course Ted Owens' most recent and significant prediction, as of February 1970 (SAGA, July 1970) was that the summer of 1970 would usher in the greatest UFO wave in history as saucers would appear in "great numbers everywhere on earth."

Is that worldwide saucer flap going on right now? We might also ask that if the flap is going on is it being successfully smothered by the news blackout that has been clamped on all UFO reports since the Condon Report of 1969? If so, Ted Owens today is a frustrated prophet indeed.

Finally, here are two more predictions by Ted Owens, which, if they haven't already been fulfilled, will be in a short time. Owens is confident they will.

Prediction 1) There is a "terrible threat" to our forces in or near Vietnam. Owens says the SIs showed him the symbolical image of a black triangular mass silently converging there, either through the air or the water. He is not clear as to the exact nature of the threat but it's a "blockbuster force" and will be a major headline about Vietnam.

Prediction 2) That Nigeria, because of its inhuman treatment of the conquered Biafrans after their war ceased, will suffer greatly unless they change their policy.

"The long unlimited hand of the UFO intelligences," wrote Owens in a letter to President Nixon, "will now reach out and strike at the Nigerian government and teach them a lesson they will never forget. From now on, Nigeria is a marked country, until the present government and all the people responsible for the miseries of the Biafran innocents have been struck down with illness and death and misery themselves."

Owens seems to imply that something akin to the "seven plagues" that struck Egypt in Biblical times will scourge the Nigerians.

It is a matter of record that as of mid-February, a deadly new virus struck Nigeria only, with a frightful fatality rate of 50 percent. Three out of five medical lab technicians sent by the U.S. died promptly of this Lassa Fever, as it is called, and medical authorities called it an emergency. "The greatest mystery," to quote the New York Times, "is where the disease came from."

An SI warning to the U.S. about trouble in Vietnam (not caused by the SIs), and an SI vengeance on Nigerian cruelty.

So says Ted Owens, mouthpiece of the SIs.

# BATTLE OF THE PSYCHICS!

# Seer Ted Owens Answers DeLouise Charges That He's a 'Fake, Phony'

Joseph DeLouise Raps A Fellow Psychic

'Seer Ted Owens Is Ruining Legitimate Image Of ESP'

By TOM VALENTINE

'If I were Namath, Unitas or Gabriel, I'd punch Owens in the nose'

By TOM VALENTINE

A tremendous "battle of the psychics" has erupted between Chicago's Joseph DeLouise and "PK man" Ted Owens of Virginia.

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 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 Owens' 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 feels insult 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 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."

In an effort to get expert opinion, TATTLER asked Jeane 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."

Caught In Gas War, This Station Owner Drives His Tanker To Rival Station And Says... 'Fill 'Er Up'

Here's Owens' Reply

Tattler editor...
read this first before forwarding. Funny that you didn't publish it!
Owens

Oct. 7, 1972

Mr. Joseph DeLouise, Psychic
Chicago
c/o National Tattler

Fella,...

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 instruct me, as he explained it long distance, that I might be a "fake 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... and mind you, we are speaking of documented before-the-fact action. 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.

Second: (we've taken up the mental, now the psychic)... 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. And all of it is documented; proved. I have notarized, signed affidavits from lawyers, scientists, etc., to the truth of what I have just stated... so there can be no argument. I even have UFO's appear at certain times and places so that scientists and others could examine them with binoculars, etc. This, too, is proven.

So... you have to be stupid to call me a fake or a phony.

Third: why try to dare football players? I want to show Charles and much on the coast! No, now hear me real! Let's you and him fight, you say, "wait, fella..."! I live at 619 Shadwell Street, Cape Charles, Virginia. I weigh 200 and 10 lbs., 10-inch yellow coward, that is when I label you, Mr. If you aren't a coward, come on down, and we'll settle off in my backyard with our fists. I am 52 years old, with a phlebitis, and you're out of condition... but it would be a pleasure to give you a lesson in manners.

Look at it any way you turn it, fella... mental, physical or psychic... you are far, far away from being anything, or being anything, like Ted Owens, PK Man... so for your sake you'd better believe it.

Ted Owens (PK Man)
Box 4, Cape Charles, Virginia 23310

# Pastor Takes Sunday Sermon to Rich Sipping Drinks Aboard Luxury Yachts

The Rev. Jerry Hunter preaches his Sunday sermon from a riverbank while his congregation sits sipping martinis aboard their luxury yachts.

The Chatham, Ont., minister figures it's the only way he can reach the rich pleasure-seekers.

Every Sunday during the summer months, Rev. Hunter sets up his pulpit on a well-trimmed lawn along a river that leads into Lake St. Clair, a favorite playground for hundreds of boaters.

He usually speaks about the problems of businessmen's "pressure-cooker" lives and some practical and spiritual solutions to them.

Most of the boaters are businessmen trying to relax for the weekend.

As he talks, the cocktail parties on the boats grow quiet and the bathing suit-clad yachtsmen drift closer.

While they might not dump their cocktails into the lake, they do listen to Rev. Hunter. And most think his dockside ministry is a good idea.

"It's the only way I can get my kids to go to church," commented one Detroit boater.

"We've been to the services at Chatham three times this summer and we plan to come more often next year."

Rev. Hunter's services are sponsored by a local church group and a large motel. He never takes up a collection, even though his congregation could well afford it.

**YOUR WEEK THAT WILL BE (Dec. 3-9)**

Travel, new modes of communicating -- these are apt to be very much featured during this, the week that will be. Psychic healing and ESP and cosmology and related areas grab headlines. At forefront, much to consternation of his more conservative associates, is apt to be CAPT. EDGAR D. MITCHELL, one of the astronauts who walked on the moon.

As we forecast months ago in these TATTLER columns, Mitchell has left the Space program and the military, renounced former materialistic aims, declares he intends to devote himself to the study of man and why he is here, what his purpose is -- and to open a center in Houston, Tex. to concentrate on and promote such subjects as psychic phenomena, ESP, psychic healing. Mitchell, it will be recalled, was the astronaut who conducted ESP tests with persons on earth while he was on his way to the moon.

Mitchell is a no-nonsense Virgo, analytical, disciplined. I feel his studies and his associates eventually will be probing the question of the survival of human personality after bodily death, a bigger story, when proven, than even man walking on the moon.

Developments in this area in Russia and other Iron Curtain countries far outdistance us. The Soviets want to use this area, including astrology, for military purposes among others. It is good we have a Capt. Mitchell.

Lunar cycle this week will be high for SCORPIO, SAGITTARIUS, CAPRICORN and AQUARIUS. When cycle is high, your judgment is apt to be correct. It is time to take initiative, to make contacts and new starts. When cycle is low, let others take initiative. Listen and observe. Wait. Cycle will be low for TAURUS, GEMINI, CANCER and LEO.

KEY NUMBERS: 7, 4 and 3.

Obstacle really is a healthy challenge. Know it and respond accordingly. Accent is on career, ambitions, ability to make room for yourself at top.

And until next week ... FOLLOW YOUR LUCKY STARS!

# Miracle Healing

## Dying Heart Patient Totally Recovered After Surgery By Psychic; MDs Baffled

By TOM VALENTINE

Dominic Albano's doctors gave him up for dead in 1971, but today he looks back and laughs, thanks to a miracle of "psychic surgery."

The 60-year-old Chicago man recently was cured by a remarkable phenomenon that has raised the hopes of sick people everywhere, despite charges of hoax and fraud from orthodox medicine and the press.

### Good Reading Cover-To-Cover:

* How To Brighten Your Menus With Plentiful Foods ..........page 4

* He Wants To Buy Rome's Colosseum And Remodel It ..........page 6

* Meet 'Doubleheader,' The World's Only Two-Headed Turtle ..........page 12

* Ex-Witch Claims She Watched Satan Destroy Her Home ..........page 21

* Florida's Costly 'Big Ditch' That Leads To Nowhere ..........page 26

Psychic surgery is performed by a number of spiritual healers in the Philippines. No instruments are used, no anaesthetic is given the patient, yet the body is opened and the affliction cured with no pain to the person being healed.

WHEN THE HEALER removes his hands, the opening closes without leaving a scar and there is no post-operative trauma. The patient simply gets up and walks away.

Few of the testimonials favoring Antonio Agpaoa, the famous "Dr. Tony" of Baguio City, are as remarkable or as thoroughly documented as the case of Dominic Albano. Said Albano:

"In August of 1971, my heart condition was so severe that a team of physicians at Presbyterian-St. Luke's Hospital refused to perform an operation on me. They feared I might die on the operating table.

"They gave me anywhere from two weeks to six months to live," Albano added wryly.

Dominic Albano's heart pains were so severe and so frequent that he was swallowing up to 30 nitroglycerine pills per day. He was no longer able to work. He had given up all hope.

From his days as an award-winning sports editor for a California daily, Tom has moved from one resounding success to another all the way acrosss the whole broad spectrum of American journalism. He has been a top rewrite man for Chicago Today, is the author of a half-dozen books, and for the past year has been TATTLER'S expert-in-residence on just about everything, especially the intriguing world of psychic phenomena.

Tom took some time out from the vigors of covering football, baseball, track and golf back in 1963 to begin a serious investigation of ESP, the occult and related subjects "out of curiosity and doubt." Since then, he has turned up enough evidence on these mysterious goings-on to fill several volumes, to convince himself of the reality of many psychic claims, and to become one of the country's leading journalistic authorities on the entire field.

In this issue, Tom scores with two exclusive stories out of the psychic world. One is the story of a man who came back from the edge of the grave to become a healthy, normal human being through the miracle of psychic surgery. The second concerns a developing "battle of the psychics," in which some members of the fraternity of prophets are condemning others as vicious charlatans.

Certainly, there is no person in the country more qualified to write on these fascinating subjects. Last summer, Valentine became the first U.S. reporter ever to view and photograph psychic surgery in progress during a visit to the Philippines.

Jeane Dixon herself, perhaps the most famous seer in American history, has worked with Tom on numerous occasions and each has learned to respect and admire the talents of the other.

If you're one of the millions of Americans who share Tom's interest in exploring the unknown, you won't want to miss either of his latest articles. They're on Pages 5 and 7.

IF THERE'S ONE thing any average American housewife (and her husband, too, for that matter) should be interested in knowing, it's how to serve good-tasting nutritionally balanced meals.

With this in mind, TATTLER'S newly appointed food editor Constance Donnellan, begins a brand-new feature this week, in which she combines recipes for delicious dishes with the U.S. Department of Agriculture's weekly lists of plentiful foods.

Starting with this issue, Constance will be offering one or more "plentiful foods" recipes each week. She plans to test most of them in her own kitchen at home before passing them along to TATTLER readers.

If you're concerned with "what's for dinner tonight," you'll want to turn right now to Constance's "Food for Thought" column on Page 4.--RJS.

It Costs Airlines Only $20 to Fly You Overseas

It costs airlines only $20.34 to fly a passenger across the Atlantic, according to technical summaries issued by Lockheed and McDonnell Douglas, manufacturers of the 1011 TriStar and the DC-10.

This is the word from George Bryant, a sharp-eyed columnist for the Toronto Star.

Bryant reminds outraged airline passengers that the $20.34 covers only direct operating costs for the airplane. Corporate overhead--labor for ground staff other than maintenance workers, airport charges, VIP lounges, etc.--isn't included in that figure.

Furthermore, the $20.34 per passenger applies only when every seat is filled (as is the case on charter flights).

But the fact remains that air travel is cheaper than you think--or cheaper for the airlines, anyway.

Says columnist Bryant, "Ever wonder why charter operators are lining up to carry future passengers for $150, round trip?"

Wisconsin Basement Houses A Tribute to Shirley Temple

By PAUL R. LANE

Shirley Temple Black is 44, a housewife, a Nixon appointee (Council on Environmental Quality), and a veteran of breast cancer.

But the other Shirley--the bright-eyed little curly-top who charmed Depression America in more than 100 movies--still lives in a Wisconsin basement.

"Little Shirley" lives through the hundreds of photos, dolls, jewelry, doll beds, coloring books, autographed movie stills, posters, cereal dishes, press releases, shoes, dresses and effects in Mrs. Ione Wollenzien's personal museum.

The Waukesha, Wis., basement is the biggest existing collecting of memorabilia devoted to the movies' littlest superstar.

Time-Life Books demonstrated this recently when they sent a camera team out to take more than 700 photos, a number of which appear in the 1930-40 volume of their series, "This Fabulous Century."

Mrs. Wollenzien never intended to go into the museum business, she says.

"It started in 1963 when my husband brought me home a Shirley Temple doll from San Francisco. I had collected dolls for years. But this particular one intrigued me. Soon, I was advertising in national hobby magazines for other Shirley Temple items."

The museum idea owed much to Harley Wollenzien's carpentry ability. He built the floor-to-ceiling cabinets with sliding glass doors that house and protect the priceless collection.

"People will send me items they wont sell or give to anyone else, because they know I'll display them, not just pack them away in some box."

Mrs. Wollenzien finds herself playing hostess to collectors and Shirley Temple enthusiasts from many states.

Recently, she was visited by a man named Lou Angel from New York City. Angel once danced professionally with Miss Temple, and he presented Mrs. Wollenzien with a colorful photo of he and Shirley dancing together.

The sheer variety of items in the collection shows the depth of 1930 American's love affair with the curly-haired scamp. Although the items of jewelry are Mrs. Wollenzien's favorites, more than 100 Shirley Temple dolls dominate the display.

Mrs. Wollenzien sewed most of the costumes--representing Shirley's roles in her 1930s movies--although she admits that a seamstress made some of the more elaborate ones. A woman in Florida made the boots and shoes that needed replacement. To restore the curly-head trademark, Mrs. Wollenzien set each doll's hair with small plastic curlers.

Mrs. Wollenzien and one of many display cases.

Mrs. Wollenzien loves to show visitors through her museum. She has a story to tell about every item. She's not just an accumulator--she knows about every part of Shirley's career, from her first "Our Gang" type shorts in 1932 through her last film in 1949.
