Jim Marvri; publicity, Barbara Greenfield and posters, Sherwin Sokolov. Dr. Polgar was so sure of him- self and his master memory of telepathy when he first took to the lecture platform in this coun- try, that while his manager looked on in horror, he challenged an audience at the Detroit Town Hall Forum. * * * "HIDE MY check for giving this performance," he said. "I'll go out- side and you can send as many people as you wish to watch me. If I can't find the check when I come back, you keep it and tonight is all for fun." The audience hid the check un- der the hat of a woman seated in the center of the hall. Polgar sim- ply asked for a _volunteer known to the audience to give him mental directions. Then he hurried down the aisle, shoved his way past protruding knees in the particular row, arriv- ed at the woman and her hat- never having seen her before-and produced the check. It took him four minutes to complete the job of locating one woman in 2000 to find his pay for the evening. r .... . ........ - -- z_- ON ICE-The Women's Physical Education Department will of- fer a course in the fundamentals of figure skating during the second semester to coeds interested in learning or bettering their skating technique.
