We Serve You Right Top Notch Cafe Ntxt to Craterian Beauty Shop Tuesday, May 1, 1958 Dr. Jaks Speaks At Knife, Fork Club Meeting Here Dr. Stanley Jaks, interna tionally known holograptucal authority and psychologist, spoke ' for Rogue River Valley Knife and Fork club last night at Rogue Valley Country club, bringing the club's tenth year to a close. Meetings will be re sumed in October. Eric Allen Jr., retiring presi dent of the club, spoke briefly of the club's founding and first year, and announced election of three new directors, Mrs. T. V. Williams, William A. Barker and Dr. J. Scott Heatherington. Not 'Psychic' Dr. Jaks, who insists that he is not "psychic," but a highly trained psychologist and holo grapher, literally astounded his audience with what he likes to call "sleight of mind" experi ments, using persons in the au dience as assistants. As an exam ple of the type of "experiment" which Dr. Jaks conducts, he asked before dinner to be in troduced to a club member to whom he gave a triple-sealed en velope. He then asked the mem ber, who happened to be Neil Davidson, to state an important year in his life, and to name some personage in whose career he has been interested. This Davidson did, giving the year 1939 and the name Clifton Webb. Davidson retained the sealed envelope, which Dr. Jaks had prepared 24 hours earlier while in California, until the program hour and when it was opened, it was found to contain the exact information which Mr. Davidson has previously con veyed to Dr. Jaks. ' ' Dr. Jaks twice duplicated the signatures of club members un known to him, writing them backwards arid upside down in full view of his audience while blindfolded. One of these was the extremely complicated sig- Control Board Approves Dormitory at MacLaren Salem (U.PJ The State Board of Control today approved call ing for bids on a 100-boy dormi tory at MacLaren school for boys after accepting preliminary plans for the structure by Whit ney, Hinson and Jacobson ar chitects.

He also correctly stated the name, ' address and telephone number of a Medford resident as given in the telephone direc tory, these having been selected, silently, by a club member in the audience. These feats Dr. Jaks did not explain except to say that they might be in the field of "extra sensory perception" which has occupied the time and study of many scientists. Speaking as a holographer, Dr. Jaks said that an individ ual's writing not only reveals his character and personality traits, but also reveals his mood and the state of his health. The speaker was introduced by Allen.
