hope Ron Oliver blows his most dangerous trick The 17yearold from New Lowell is big on mindreading and ESP tricks theres so lit tle you have to carry around and one of his tricks or ef fects as he prefers to call them pits his abilities against the risk of losing his fee for show First Ron has organizers lock his che ue $15 to $50 or more depending on the type of audience in box and mix the key in with other keys Then standing blindfolded across the stage he has an organizer pick up the keys one by one setting one aside at his command If the one he chooses doesnt unlock the box the organization keeps the cheque Fortunately that has only happened once in his two years as professional it wasnt very expensive show he recalls He has other mindreading ef fects too He brought deck of cards with him to his Examiner interview and asked this reporter to think of card Jack of diamonds was the reply and he produced the deck with the jack of diamonds facing op posite the rest of the cards Later in the year be pro mises to predict an Examiner headline The headline for given days paper will be found inside an envelope sealed and notarized some days earlier the wording will probably not be exact he says ut it will be very close Skills like Rons are not always put to the best use he says Magicians have capitalized on such tragedies as this years 500death Canary Islands plane crash and the more recent Yonge Street murder of shoeshine boy Emanuel Jaqucs by claiming to have predicted them He says and others like the controversial Uri Geller claim to have other paranormal powers And Ron liver Im not any great mystical force he says Im primarily an entertainer In addition to ESP Rons ef fects include levitation rope tricks vanishing head and his latest and most spectacular sixfoothigh guillotine which cuts carrots and other in animate victims but passes through living human neck without harming its owner SNOWMANSIIIP In every case he says the important part is not the trick itself but the way it is 45 The Irish Rovers presented Showmanship in other words is the key You can make rotten little effect fantastic by presenting it right he says and love playing the role of magician magician is an actor playing amagician The Grade 13 student from Stayner Collegiate Institute says he was pretty well saturated the Collingwood StaynerWasaga Beach magic market and is aiming for suc cess in the larger world of Bar rie and district Hes taken his act on televi sion to Royal Victoria Hospital and t0 Centennial Park and you may be seeing him at other city parks in the coming weeks The rest of the time he spends practicing two to three hours day and trying to find room for his schoolwork and his sociallife And what is it that makes people want to watch him or any magician for that matter think people like magic because they are tired of hav ing things spelled out to them he says The unknown has always fascinated people Poeple are tired of having nuclear physicists tell them how the earth is formed Now theyre interested in seeing that theres still some mystery in life special Orillio concert Surprised Not really Ron liver is used to finding the right
