Many people on campus,
disappointed at the voting
turn-out for the S,G,A, offices,
are hoping more students will be
interested in voting for their class
offices. One student on campus
voiced the opinion of many when
he said, “It’s getting so, that the
only thing anyone wants to do is
complain and hold ‘Bitch-Ins’, but
when it comes to doing
something, like voting for the
candidates of their choice, all they
want to do is sit on their asses!”

By Sherry Drake
David Hoy, “Mr. ESP,” who
appeared in the Parquet Room
last Wednesday, made three
predictions for the future: The
United States and Cuba will have
an upheaval around July 15; the
next major plane crash will be in
Europe, probably over
Switzerland; and a major gold
strike will be discovered in Alaska
within the next 90 days. Mr.
Hoy’s predictions in the past have
been 85% correct,-time will tell
about the predictions made on
our campus.
During the talk he gave a brief
history of ESP, beginning with Dr.
Rhine of Duke who is known as
“the Father of ESP.” According
to Hoy, ESP is divided into three
distinct facets: telepathy or
mind-to-mind communication,
precognition or anticipating and
predicting the future, and
psychokinesis or the movement of
physical objects by the mind
without use of physical means.
The NEW YORK TIMES has
said that ESP will be one of the
major means of communication
by the year 2020, but Hoy
disagrees with this. He thinks it
will be much sooner than that, for
he sees ESP not just as a particular
gift that only a few people
possess, but as a faculty which we
all have and can develop. Nor does
he see anything of the occult, of
palmistry, or astrology in ESP.
And, he considers preschool
children the best subjects, because
their minds have not yet been
structured into logical channels.
Mr. Hoy knows many of the
active, well-known people in ESP
and told stories about several of
them. After appearing on a
television show with Jeanne
Dixon, they were talking back
stage. She was telling everyone
that her predictions came straiglit
from God, Hoy turned to her and
said, “That’s fine, but when you
miss, you sure are giving him a
bad name.” He thinks Bishop Pike
is a nice man, but one with a
terrible hang-up because of his
son’s suicide. In other words he
doesn’t believe that the good
Bishop is in communication with
his son.
After his talk. Hoy gave a very
convincing demonstration. Up
until this time many members of
the audience had remained very
skeptical. He asked someone to
come up and blindfold him.
Scarlett Lackey was volunteered,
she blindfolded him with five
she was carrying. One of the boys
had a piece of American
money-1 loy even told him the
serial number.
After the performance, because
it was truly a polished
performance, even the hard core
skeptics had begun to wonder.

David Hoy
pieces of wide surgical tape placed
over two half dollars. After the
money was taped securely in
place, she placed nine folds of
black cloth over the tape and
money.
Hoy asked for five people to
come from the audience on a
volunteer basis, and for these five
people to bring with them an
object for him to identify.
Five people lined up. The first,
a boy, walked up, touched him on
the arm as he had been directed,
and waved a small while object
between Hoy’s hands. Hoy first
asked if the object were made of
paper, if it were a card? The boy
replied, “Yes.” Hoy then asked if
it had to do with school. The
answer to that question was
negative. Hoy asked if it were a
card with writing, the answer to
that, too was yes. Then he rapid
successfion: “It has names and
numbers. There is a name in the
upper left hand corner, the
numbers are.... and he said them
quickly. The last number that he
said was wrong, but it had
recently been changed. The next
to come up was a girl. She had
with her a plastic contact lens
case. It took him approximately
twenty seconds to tell her what
