But a recent study of newspaper files shows that a number of well-educated persons still believe wholeheartedly in witches and the power" of their curses, charms, and magical craft. For instance, last year a 62-year-old Alabama school prin cipal resigned after admitting to the county school superin tendent that she believed in voodoo and had openly dis cussed it with her pupils. Earlier this year, a New York City waitress, questioned by reporters about disturbances in the coffeehouse where she worked, replied that she could say nothing about herself at the moment because she was studying to be a witch. .l 1 - n . . .. iiu, mi iii 1 1 1 11 h n 11 1 n 11 n i. o o - ui(,tainii "C Rev. Montague Summers, an au thority on the history of witch craft, stated, "I know there are witch cults today in hundreds of cities in the British Isles." It is common knowledge, of course, that in areas where igno rance and superstition are as strong today as they were cen turies ago, the witch is still a creature of terror. As the Ameri can People's Encyclopedia points out: "Any old woman who lives alone, collects herbs, and is mildly eccentric is likely to be known as a witch." News reports from the Congo recently told how 241 sus pectcd witches and sorcerers had been put to death by fellow tribesmen after mysterious trials. But to find witchcraft still nour ishing in the "civilized world" comes as something of a shock. It's hard to believe, though all of us have probably bumped into such superstition at one time or an other in our lives. In areas of Pennsylvania, for Drawings by Robert fMlmann from 1960 by RoW Heitmann example, it is common to see barns decorated with hex signs for warding off evil spells and spirits. In Denmark, oeonle' still build immense antiwitch bonfires on St. Hans Eve which comes at the height of summer. According to legend, these fires are built in order to trap and burn any witches flyine over the countryside. AN! OF E ms outspoken believers' that witches do W exist is Gerald Gardner, anthropologist and director of me museum of Magic and Witchcraft on the Isle of Man, England. Gardner declares that he has met many witches in 111s me ana tnat he himself is a member of one of the oldest auueues 01 witcnes surviving in England. The real problem in identifying a witch, according to Gardner, is mat sne isn't necessarily a wrin kled old crone with a tall, pointed nai, Drewing malevolent and mal- J . . uuorous spells m an iron cauldron.

Witches who train their children now live in fear that Junior may blab an incantation in class and permanently ruin the famUy reputation or, even worse, put a spell on the scoutmaster or math teacher. Michael Callaway, a writer and artist who has done con siderable research on witchcraft, estimates that in the U.S. there are more than 10,000 witches' cults, each with three to 13 members. ."These cults are very secretive. The members consider it their religion, and it often takes years before they'll let in a hew member." Before you laugh at people like Callaway or Gardner, consider that people were once equally skeptical about sea - monsters. Today' we accept them as being giant whales or squid. Maybe the answer to witches is equally simple. In any event, keep your wits about you if you attend a Halloween party. Some of the spirits surrounding you will be good and some evil. We hope you can spot which is witch! "Children love her they think she's Mother Goose.
