MAGICIANS SEEK WAY OF KEEPING THEIR SECRETS Public Getting to Know Too Much About Illusions, Convention Decides. BY FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Treu Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, May 31—Somebody has been telling how magicians do their tricks, letting the public know how the lady is sawed in half, how the gentleman keeps from being drowned in the tank of water and how the menagerie finds room for living quarters in the confines of a Silk hat. Ocmething must be done about it, and no one knows yet just what. So the Society of American Magicians convened 350 strong here to discuss ways and means to curb the practice which threatens to turn the art of magic into a mere profession or worse. Too many magazines go in for articles exposing magicians’ secrets, said Joseph J. Kolar, one of the secretive members. So do the movies, he said. Has Tricks of Own . “It’s like this,” explained John L. Mulholland, New York magician and editor of Phoenix, official magicians’ magazine. “Each magician has tricks of his own. He can’t patent them, and he can’t have them copyrighted. If he did, they'd be public property. So he has to keep them secret. He is very careful. He keeps his books and his formulas and things under lock and key. “And then when he goes to a show and maybe sees his very own act done by someone else, well, it’s pretty serious business.” The assembled brethren of the mystio patter and the trick shirt sleeves, consequently, plan to hold a series of secret meetings to heatcomplaints about revelations of their inventions. If any member is found guilty of telling how a trick is done, he will be expelled. Like to Arrest Him “We can’t have him arrested," said Mulholland. “But we’d like to.” Mulholland, for instance, is a specialist with the big disappearing bird cage act. He hold a cage of singing yellow canary birds in his left hand. Then he makes a pass with his right. And the bird cage disappears, unless something slips up. “If anyone found out how I do that,” he said. “I don’t know what I’d do to him.” Another magician present with a secret bag of tricks was Betty Jane Kolar, the 7-year-old daughter of the member with the outspoken grudee against magazines which expose too many secrets. Child Is Good Betty Jane follows in her father’s footsteps to such an extent that she can take an umbrella or a carving knife or almost anything else and make it turn into an orange with a silk handkerchief crumpled within. She wears a pair of medals awarded her by the Magicians' Club of London and a similar society in Paris. Even the medals, said Mary Jane, would vanish in thin air at her command. A magician, explained Mary Jane, can make anything vanish. And if he can’t, she continued, he insists so strongly that he can that his audience actually believes he can. “That,” said Mary Jane, “is psych, psych, psychology.” WREATHS ARE - RESCUED Flowers for Veterans’ Graves Are Found on Dump.

HOOVER RESTS WITH ROD, REEL AFTERORATION Takes to Forest Retreat to k Recover From Talk f at Gettysburg. BY H. O. THOMPSON United Press Staff Correspondent WILLIAMSPORT, Pa., May 31. A day in the open with rod and reel c&me as a welcome relaxation to President Hoover today after one of the most ambitious oratorical efforts of his career. It was Herbert Hoover, the idealist, who addressed the thousands massed on Gettysburg’s slopes Friday. It was Herbert Hoover, the enthusiastic sportsman, who enjoyed to the full the opportunities afforded as a week-end guest at the hunting and fishing preserve of Jay Cooke, Philadelphia financier, back in the mountains twenty miles from here. Hurley Also at Camp The 4.000-acre preserve, comprising mountains mantled in green, well-stocked trout streams and wild life native to the region, furnished all the President could desire for rest and relaxation. Ogontz, the Cook lodge to which the President motored from Gettysburg after his Memorial day address, is a commodious place, with all city conveniences. Mr. Hoover had the “dog room,” so called because of a collection of prints of dog life which line the walls. In the same building, which can accommodate nearly a score of guests, were housed Secretary of War Hurley, Governor Fisher of Pennsylvania, Lawrence Richey, the President’s executive secretary, and Dr. Joel T. Boone, White House physician. The President plans to return to Washington Sunday. Talks to Vast Audience “The weaving of freedom,” the President told a vast audience of Gettysburg and millions of radio listeners, "always will be a struggle of law against lawlessness, of individual liberty against domination, of unity against sectionalism, of truth and honesty against demagogery and misleading of peace against fear and conflict. “In the forming of this pattern, the abuse of politics often muddies the stream of constructive thought and dams back the flow of well considered action.”
SPANISH ROYAL PAIR CELEBRATE King, Queen Observe 24th Wedding Anniversary. Bu United Press BARCELONA, Spain, May 31. King Alfonso XIII and Queen Victoria Eugenia celebrated their twenty-fourth wedding anniversary today. Don Alfonso was 20 when he married the English princess Ena of Battenberg, then not quite 19, in Madrid on May 31, 1906. On their way from the church to the royal palace, as their carriage passed along the Calle Mayor, the anarchist, Mateo Morral, threw a bomb from a balcony window. The king and queen barely escaped and twenty-four other persons were killed and 107 wounded. The king, unmoved by the narrowness of his escape, after seeing to it t.iat his bride’was unhurt, immediately interested himself in the other victims. Exactly a year previous, while Alfonso, then on a state visit to France, and President Emile Loubet were leaving a gala performance at the opera in Paris, a bomb was thrown at their carriage, killing one of the horses. Tradition has it that Alfonso exclaimed, “Vive la France!” and was accorded a mighty ovation.
FLOOD \m CREST Volunteers Reinforce River Levees in Louisiana. Bu United Frets ALEXANDRIA, La., May 31. Hundreds of volunteers worked feverishly reinforcing the levees along the Red river in northern Louisiana today as flood waters, which already have inundated 250,000 acres of land, mounted toward their crest. Many sections, particularly in the Caddo, Grant and Bossier parishes, presented a bleak appearance as waters receded temporarily. Five villages were flooded. At least six persons were dead, and officials feared the bodies of many more would be discovered when the waters completely subsided. Coupled with state-wide relief measures, the Red Cross issued a general appeal for funds to care for more than ten thousands persons, many of whose homes were submerged by the muddy water.
