Almost everyone has experienced these things or known someone else who has. Some tell of the most startling experiences with a sincere conviction that cannot be denied: Of dreaming that a dear relative has died, and finding upon investigation that it is true; of writing on sudden impulse to a friend who has not been heard from in years, only to receive a letter, written by the friend on the same kind of impulse in the next mail; or experiencing an inexplicable premonition while visiting that there is a fire at home, and rushing there just in time to rescue the baby from a flaming death. What is the explanation? Chance coincidence? Or sixth sense . . . mind reading . . . telepathy? Is there any means of reaching the mind other than through the five recorded physical senses? Science has scoffed in the past. But today a controversy fanned by newspaper stories, popular books and radio programs has whetted the country to a new boom of interest in telepathy. Scoffers are still in the majority . . . but few of them can explain away the amazing implications of certain experiments which of recent months have fascinated millions. What Is the Mind? These are the experiments conducted by Dr. J. B. Rhine and several associates in the department of psychology of Duke university, at Durham, N. C. Of late an adaptation of these experiments has been employed by the Zenith Foundation in a weekly Sunday night radio program which invites listeners to be- - experimenter took a shufHed pack of ESP cards, in unknown order, and laid them before him, face down. The subject was asked to concentrate upoif the cards while the experimenter removed them from the pack, one at a time, without looking at them. The subject called for each card the symbol which first flashed into his mind. The call was recorded. When the entire pack had been disposed of (and the original order maintained) the actual order of the cards would be observed and checked against the order called by "the subject. Since there were five cards each of five different symbols in a pack, pure chance would permit a correct call of 1 card in 5, or 5 cards in 25. But more than a few of Dr Rhines subjects were found to be able to call consistently an average of far more than 5 right out of every 25 cards, in a series of several thousand runs through freshly shuffled packs. Some of the consistent high scorers at times scored 21 and even 25 hits out of a possible 25. The chance odds against such performances, even in thousands of runs through the cards, are so enormous as to be of astronomical proportions! Subjects who, under the right conditions, could consistently call from 6.5 to 10 or 12 card? per 25 offered, were not highly unusual. The right were a feeling of conconditions fidence in their ESP ability, interest in the work and physical and mental wakefulness. Even the best subjects were found to slip back to the chance average when they were skeptical of their ability at the time of growing bored. Such subjects found little appreciable differences in their averages Home Heating explanations, among them that cues were being given, probably unconsciously, to the subject by the experimenter. But this could hardly be possible when the experimenter did not know himself the order of the cards until the pack had been examined AFTER the subject had John Barela Heating Expert By Daily Schedule for Best, Most Economical Heat in Furnace Operation finished calling. Another explanation is that the results are simply lucky. But the odds against the kind of scoring that is being done, they say at Duke, are so enormous as to rule this hypothesis out. Dr. Rhine assumes, says one scientific writer, that this same chance (1 to 5) holds straight through the 25 guesses. It would if each card were returned to the deck after the call and the deck shuffled. Actually, as a star is removed, the chances on that suit are lessened slightly and the chances on other guesses increased. Criticizes Duke Mathematics. But this can hardly hold water when the subject does not know whether any guess he has made is right until he is all through guessing. Now the experiments with which we have dealt here include only y the clairvoyance perception of objects, characters on cards. Dr. Rhine has also conductin ed exhaustive experiments y the perceptelepathy tion of mere thoughts. Here is how that is tested: No cards are used. The sender, in one room, gives the ready signal to the subject, in another room or miles away, for that matter. He then concentrates upon the first symbol (the same symbols are used mentally as those appearing on the ESP cards), chosen at random. The subject records what he believes the symbol to be. After ten seconds there is another signal and the operation is repeated ; and so on, through 25 calls. At the finish of the run the subjects record is checked against the order of the symbols as recorded by the experimenter. Some subjects actually made higher scores in the telepathic tests than they did in the objective tests. In three daily trials, one subject made scores of 19, 16 and 16, in her first experience in ESP work. And she was stationed 250 miles from the sender, with ranges of mountains separating them!
