Lewis eaustically asked Harry

coal negotiations about his coun-

piled.

John, one at Lynch, Ky, and the
other at Gary, w. Va. They're
both small outfits and the mem
bcrship is 90 percent miners.
I'm fact, at the Gary club the
champion is a 22-year. old miner
who plays 10 holes every after

the match, Slater found a semi
saoist. or something of the kind
among the critics to do the same
tning. The critic was totally mex
perlenced at holding lighted matches
10 other human beings, but there
was no sign from Joe that he felt
burned up.
BY way of carrying the proof a
step farther, Slater left Joe standing
there while he borrowed a pin. A
woman pulled it out of her hat for
the experiment. Slater lighted a
match OF the end of it to sterilize
the pin, took several experimental
Jabs at Joe, then passed the weapon
over to the critic. The latter WINGED

Slater is a small, professionally
solemn young man. AS hypnotism's S

who insists sternly that it is a sci

values, he is in no mood to be light
hearted. At least he was nothing of

however, cannot keep from being
funny, it seems.
Slater's act was most amusing
when he got around to its post
hypnotic suggestion phase. To one
OF the girls sleeping there, he said:
You are going to wake up, now.
When you do-now listen to this
when I say ice cream, you are going
to have a feeling your shoes are on
the wrong feet. You will take them
off and change them"
When it came out Just as Slater
said, the audience roared.
The girl felt silly, but not very
silly.
Another one of the subjects was
told that the first two cigarettes he
smoked after waking up would taste
like gasoline.
They did. The subject was puzzled
no end trying to figure out why.

But the really funniest thing
about the Slater act at the party
was a private thing. Only two of
the guests were in on it. There was
a girl there who was fascinated by
Slater. When asked to be hypno-
tlzed, Slater granted her request.
She slept through the entire act.
She had to go to the Capitol Theater
later to see it..

Among the more ambitious of the
theater groups in the Washington
area is the Alexandria Little The
ater, which is the major outpost OF
the drama in that nearby Virginia
city. Its ambition is not the sort
that drives 1t to experimental plays
or dramatic works beyond its powers
The group does not overreach itself
but sticks generally to plays OF
proven entertainment value. Its
ambition is made of sterner stuff.
Apparently having a proper re-
gard for its place in its community
the Alexandria groups members
think they should have a theater OF
their own. The condition whereby
Alexandria's residents have no le-
gitimate theater closer than Wash
ington's National is one they would
like to remedy.
The Alexandria Little Theater al
ready owns building of its own
which is used as a workshop, meet
ing house and rehearsal hall, and
the building of a theater is consid-
cred the next logical step. Plans
for raising money for the project
will be discussed next Friday night
at the groups workhouse party al
the Cameron street USO.
Another item on the Friday
agenda will be the presentation OF
an original one-act play, Moon

Of the theater's playwriting group.

It's most spectacular test in a couple

invades New York's Carnegie Hall
of all centers of culture, and under
takes to put the whole audience to
sleep. Tradition has it that other
performers have done such a thing
The difference is that Slater will do
it deliberately.
In the reticent way of hypnotists,
magicians and the like in show busi-
ness, Slater does not talk about his
methods. He shows you what he
can do with his subjects. It is a
fascinating thing as it was disclosed

not damaged whit by the fact that
Slater was working virtually in the
laps of the spectators.

enough, the sound of the exclama-

mand had barely died before the six
were asleep. They looked like so
many bags of dough sitting there in
their chairs. Slater kneaded them
at will thereafter.
The most interesting of his DEM

that of showing the depth of the
hypnotist's control over the subject.

was of duty naturally at the time,

missed in not having hypnotic gifts
