I ■< FISH FRY ENTERTAINER— Harry Belmar, nationally known'hypnotist, will be among one of the top entertainers at the annual Decatur Chamber of Commerce rural-urban fish fry next Thursday night at the Decatur high school gym.

If you're skeptical of rigged TV shows, fake magicians, and a lot of other shady show business attractions, you'd better attend the rural-urban fish fry on Oct. 22 at the Decatur high school gym to see an honest interpretation of hypnosis performed by a master of the art. Headlining the evening's professional entertainment will be Harry Belmar, nationally known and respected hypnotist. Belmar has stunned audiences at fraternal organizations, civic groups, and night clubs throughout the country with his thrilling and laughable entertainment. His fascinating demonstrations of ethically induced hypnotic trances will hold even the most skeptical audiences spellbound. Belmar, who is associate director of the Hypnotism Institute of Chicago, is one of the few entertainers in this line, who does not use stooges in his act. Julius Baker, entertainment chairman for the Chamber of Commerce sponsored event, said today that the Belmar act wi 1 ! also be joined by a top notch comedian from Chicago, but his name will not be released un-

til Monday. The captains of the 25 tables at the fish fry will also release the names of their workers Monday, with rbout 100 volunteers being procured to treat the rural neighbors of the area. Tickets for the event can still be purchased at many local stores and from the Chamber office. Price is $1.75. Reelect Anderson To Farm Credit Board Willard M. .Anderson.
