The three-hour tests are pro- vided by the U.S. College En- trance Board, a body set up to help U.S. universities determine the scholastic merits of appli- cants. Some 2,000,000 U.S. stu- dents write the test every year. The U.S. test was acquired this year by the University of Toronto as an experiment, It will be offered to Grade 13 high school students throughout the province. "The university wants to get some early idea of the abilities of their applications for the fall when they are swamped by so many,"' said G. B. Goulding, vice-principal of the Peterbo- rough Collegiate and Vocational School, where Saturday's tests will be conducted. The finished papers, with one of four answers blocked off in pencil, will be marked by com- puter at the board's headquar- ters in Princeton, N.J. The board interprets the results and sends its findings to both the university and the schools at- tended by the students.

South GENERAL TIRE | Deen! ues ~ ase Ss = LONDON (CP) -- What the stars foretell is big business to- day in Britain, where more and more people, including a high proportion of businessmen, are consulting clairvoyants, palm- ists and astrologers as regu- larly as they visit the dentist. Fortune tellers have moved up in the world from a tent in the fairground to posh consulting rooms in Mayfair and Belgravia. You can even take correspond- ence courses in clairvoyance. Astrologer - journalists have never been more in demand. Fashionable glossy magazines now give up whole pages to horoscopes and there have even been hints that London's serious Sunday newspapers may unbend their austere columns to the for- tunes of Aries, Scorpio, Gemini and the rest. The writers behind the horo- scope columns range from housewives who have studied strology to colorful, fey charac- ters like Leon Petulengro, last of a long line of Romany fortune tellers, who claims he has the power to curse people or bring them good luck, readers who follow their horo- scopes probably don't take such things seriously. But there is a growing number of Britons pre- parted to pay anything up to 25 guineas ($78.75) for a personal consultation with one of a half- dozen or so top - flight seers whose reputations are based on a high score of accuracy. CRISES BRING WORK "You always get an increase of work at a time of interna- tional uncertainty," said Tom Corbett, 49, London's leading so- ciety clairvoyant and crystal- gazer. Corbett numbers whole pages of who's who celebrities among the clients who consult him in his cluttered ground floor apartment in Chelsea. "This Rhodesian crisis, for in- stance, has tentacles stretching into many fields. Businessmen with money invested in Rhodesia come to me to see how things are going to turn out." Corbett, a bulky, silver-haired Irishman from Tipperary, says he became conscious of his psychic power as a boy. He came to London 29 years ago, "with sixpence in my pocket,' because he couldn't make much of a living in Ireland "with all those good Catholics." Now he charges five guineas ($15.75) a session and sees about six peo- ple a day, apart from television appearances and charity work. He says 75 per cent of his clients are men. "They come from all walks of life, dukes to dustmen." LEAD 2TH CENTURY Liechtenstein is tne most in- dustrialized country in the world; half its population of 17,- _ |000 work in factories.

INTERPRETS PICTURES "It's like magic-lantern slides, pictures coming and going, I have to interpret them, of course, and the time they will happen." Corbett also uses a pack of Tarot cards, the centuries-old fore-runner of today's playing cards, He does not ask ques- tions -- "no. real clairvoyant should"--nor does he allow the client to question him until the session is over, He is anxious to raise the status of clairvoyance and would like to work in closer co-opera- tion with the medical profession. "We are all reaching for the same goal, to help people." In a recent get-together be- tween seers and psychiatrists arranged by Evening Standard science editor Peter Fairley, Dj. John Barker, psychiatrist at a} Shropshire Hospital, said: "Study of the powers of gifted clairvoyants might lead to greater understanding or even a breakthrough in our knowledge of how the mind prorks and about the nature of time itself.' Most successful in the boom- ing business of star-gazing is clairvoyant - astrologer Maurice Woodruff, a dapper little man who writes for 17 magazines and has so many would-be clients he recently raised his consultation fee to a shutout level of 25 guineas. Actor Peter Sellers is just one of a flock of show-busi- ness folk who wouldn't dream of signing a contract without first consulting Woodruff.
