New Year Greetings to Our Relatives, Friends and Patrons 5050 JOY TE. 4-8282 dini. His real name was Erich Weiss, and he was the son of Samuel Mayer Weiss, who had come to the United States from Hungary. Early in his life, young Erich had been apprenticed to a locksmith, but soon, thor- oughly disliking the trade, he ran away to join a circus. There he learned to juggle four balls at once, and to read a book at the same time. He sprang to fame by his handcuff act and sensational escapes. He allowed himself to be bound, hand and foot in a large case, wrapped with ropes and chains", and placed under water. He escaped from thou- sands of straight-jackets, picked innumerable locks, and freed himself while hanging from a derrick in manacles and straight-jacket. He would be put in a coffin which was shut and lowered in a basin. He remained 90 minutes there and came out smiling. "Short breaths and conserva- tion of oxygen do it," he ex- plains in his Memoirs. The strangest stories are told about the innumerable varia- tions his clever brain invented to make the trick always a new one and leave people gasping and shaking their heads in wonder. A word has come from his adopted name "Houdini." Ac- cording to Funk and Wag- nall's Standard Dictionary, to "houdinize" means "to release or extract oneself from con- finement, bonds, or the like, as by wriggling out. When Houdini died in De- troit, in 1926, his body was placed in the big air-tight cof- fin which he used in order to prove his contention that any- one could live without air for a full hour — if he did not let fear overcome him. According to The New York Times, it was his express wish to be buried in this casket. His remain s, brought to New York, were buried in the Machpelah Ceme- tery, Cypress Hills, L. I. He left his magnificent magicians' library to the Library of Con- gress.
