Show PACE 12 THE THUNDERBIRD MONDAY OCTOBER 12, 1987 "5 Jubilee complements theme with 'different' Karges show A REVIEW BY DEBORAH I 1 I 1 1 I I I I I ,j 4 i j J j ? j j 5 j C j r id ; s Mentali st Craig karges, who emceed the Homecoming jubilee, took rings from audience members to form a chain. The Homecoming Jubilee, an evening of song, dance and magic, entertained SUSC students Tuesday, and reflected the theme of Homecoming '87 "All Together Different." A wide variety of unique and interesting acts, ranging from artfully choreographed dance routines to levitating tables, had audience members on the edges of their seats. Performers included SUSC's Opus VI; Cedar High School's drill team, the Mohey Tawas; SUSC music major, Amy Dalton; "Night Creatures," a unique dance group; The Generics, a vocal comedy quartet, and a violinpiano instrumental number, The highlight of the event was Master of Ceremonies Craig Karges. He mystified the audience by demonstrating acts of extraordinary mind power. The entertainer claimed no supernatural powers nor did he try to convince his audiences to believe in anything. Most people picture mind readers as old, mysterious-lookin- g magicians. Not is clean cut and who Karges, young, wholesome looking. Karges captivated his audience throughout the entire performance. The Magic of the Mind Show proved to be a fantastic display of psychic happenings and illusion, using audience participation. their ultimate dream car and then producing a prewritten description of the exact car. The entertainer went beyond predicting the future to actually reading participants minds. His powers also enabled him to "read" the serial number of a borrowed dollar bill, while heavily blindfolded. Though some audience members were skeptical of his powers, the mind over matter portions of the show were incredible. With the light touch of his fingertips, Karges lifted a table inches off the ground. Then he interlinked three finger rings borrowed from audience members. When the rings were unlinked, there was no trace of breaks or cuts. It seemed unbelievable, but these feats where performed in front of a live audience. Karges concludes almost every performance by risking the check for his services. His check was placed in one of three envelopes. A member of the audience selected all but one envelope to be burned. The remaining envelope (he hoped) would contain his check. He was fortunate at SUSC, but the entertainer said it doesn't always work. If he fails this particular demonstration, his performance is free. Karges' Magic of the Mind Show added an exciting dimension of Homecoming Jubilee and was a hit with everyone who attended. i Drama students make no bones about new long hair policy, BY JOE MARTINEZ "If you've got it, why not put it up in a bone and use it " said Michael Stiver, concerning the newest policy for hair in SUSC's theatre department.
