HOW TO SHOO A Chew Mouthfal of Tobacco HALLOWEEN WITCH By HOWARD BRISCO Wide Worid Features NORMAN, Okla., Oct. 24.—A mouthful of tebacco, chewed vigorously, will drive off witches and goblins that otherwise might molest you on Hallowe'en night But if vou would choose witches in preference to chewing tobacco, you still can play safe by driving three nails in a triangular design on your door. You don't believe it? Well,’ thers are thousands who do—so meny, in fact, that Benjamin A.,; Cartwright, a national authority on superstitions, long ago aban-j doned as hopeless his campaign to! disprove them. | Cartwright, a keen-eyed pro-j fessor of education at the Univer- sity of Oklahoma, now lets peo- ple believe what they like about the baleful aspects of black cats, umbrellas and spilled salt. “The influence of superstition on the lives of Americans must be tremendous,” says the 47-year-olé educator, “but there’s nothing you can do about it. They cling to the quee: beliefs handed down to them.” ‘The fact there's not a grain of truth in more than 20,000 strange nections he has classified does not lessen Cartwright’s enj ent of his hobby. When he comes across a new one he is as jubilant as a golfer who has made a hole in one. Cats, contends the professor, stroking the coal-black Persian dozing on his desk, are the most myligned animals in the field of superstition. His files show that according to the superstition, a white cat every whit as bad as a black one— and a-yellow tabby is worse. If you have always wondered what witches really look like, just toss a pinch of salt into any con- venient whirlwind and you'll see them on their broomsticks going gustilv about their nefarious busi- ness. Or so the superstitious be- lieve. | Faving seen witches, you might} decide you would like to be one. In that casc, load a rifle with sil- ver bullets and fire nine times! &t the moon. } Don’t be too seriously con- cerned about a possible encounter with a witch. Cartwright’s files! ccntain hundreds of simple meth- ods of outwitting them. For instance, people who be-| li uch things say you should just slide a dime under the hearth. i lof the eration of the plan After the ceremony, a reception wes held at ‘the home of,, the rarcnts of the’ bride. ‘Déticious punch and other refreshments‘ er: gciyed!'
