New Haven, Corm, In the burgeoning hobby of the amateur magician (best esti- mate: at least 50,000 of them abroad in the land) this was a typical gathering of the . clan. Among the 400-odd registrants, there were doctors, lawyers, Clergymen industrialists, mer- chants, college professors, sales- men, two policemen, and one funeral director. There was no record 'of any candlestick maker but there was one baker (Al Goshrnan of 13rooklyn ' who billed himself as "tlee baker who's a faker"). For three days, they watched each other perform at formal and informal shows, attended lectures and workshop sessions, demonstrated new tricks, and shopped displays set up by the dealers in magic apparatus (in addition to thousands of joke and novelty shops, there are eighteen firms in the U.S. de- voted exclusively to the retail- ing of magicians' parapherna- lia). Star attraction was Cardini, the suave, monocled deceiver ac- laimed by most enthusiasts as the finest sleight-of-hand per- former of this or any other era. a A youthful 64, Cardini produced fans of cards, lighted cigarettes a from: the air with all the old skill that made him a vaudeville headliner and a supper-club star. To the neophyte, Cardini `had this advice: "Magic is a great- Bobby, but stay , out of show business." At magic conventions, the pro- fessionals hobnob with the ama- teers to an extent unknown in other pursuits. The reason: Most new magic effects are ,created by amateurs or semiprofessionals. The professionals are too busy perfecting what they already know to develop innovations of their own. John Mulholland, author, lecturer, and .a good gray dean among prestidigita- tors put it this way: "Magicians are naturally gregarious, be- cause magic as a hobby is basic- ally a social outlet. The good magician must like people), He then ticked off a longaline. -of prominent amateur's: TV star Jack Paar, ventriloquial Edgar Bergen, ',end actors Orson Welles, Harold Lloyd, and Ches- ter Moreisenandefrom the liter- ary past, Lewis 'Carroll and Charles Dickens: James C.Johnsen, .e _Hartford psychiatriet; delved ,a bit deeper into the motivation :off the, trick- ster. An amateur magician him- self, he characterized the aver- age amateur as "a rather infan- tile personality." Doing tricks,- he said, represents "a personal acting-out of some rather primi- tive needs of the individual in the handling of symbolic mater- ial." For example, in pulling a rabbit from a hat, "the hat is a wonderfully abundant uterus that gives birth to' the rabbit." But at least magicians are basi-, cally, honest, he said. "If they weren't doing. 'magic they prob- ably would be' embezilers or confidence men." On the ,credit' side, even psy- chiatrist Meson had some kind words 'for the magic hobbyist. "I have been to a good many LOFTY TRIBUTE - Curved like the end of a rainbow, the West Berlin Air Lift memorial is bathed in the glare of spotlights. It commemorates the giant air mission which supplied the city during the Russian blockade of 1948-49, of these conventions," he said, "and I have never met a magi- cian I could actively dislike. — From NEWSWEEK. FALL FROM GRACE Having just been married, Casey took his bride to see him play. He was looking for a chance to impress her, and the opportunity arrived in the very first inning, He looped a soft liner over' third and made two with the aid of a magnificent long hook slide. Shortly there- after, he scored on an infield single, evading, the catcher with another brilliant slide. At the end of the inning, Casey strutted by the :box seats and murmred to his' bhide, "How do you like the game so far?" "Very much," piped his' love- ly, "but you could 'be a little more graceful. You tripped twice running around the basest" The serious-faced barrister settled his bobbed wig more firmly on his brow. And in the crowded courtroom at Bodmin Assizes on that bleak February morning everybody leaned for- ward to catch the first words spoken by Mr. Scott Henderson. It was almost childish, the eager expectation on many of their faces, Even the jury, com- prising stout-hearted Cornish- men, found it hard to keep their faces impassive. For they were there to give a verdict on a crime which had shocked the West. Country. The handsome, well-built young man in the dock, Miles Gifford, was charged with the murder of his parents,.. Ironically he svap,ap- peering `in a • court where leis father had often appeared in the past during his twenty-three years as a solicitor and magis- trates' clerk. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Henry Giffard were a loved and re- spected couple, wealthy, proud owners of a large house on the hefty cliffs at Carylon Bay, Porthpean. But the Cornish folk knew Miles Giffard as a "rum and wild one." He had studied, and failed, for the law, He had dabbled 'at a few other careers and made a hash of them, too. Then he had gone to London. There, among the phoney. Bo- hemians of Chelsea, he ha• found his way of life: wild pars ties, heavy hangovers, attraC- tive women, high-powered caes. Broke, young Giffard had come home to his parents, For a while they kept 'him, Then, on Noveinber 8th, 1952, their son repaid their kindness by brutal murder For that horrible crime he was now standing in the dock at Bodmin, waiting for Mr. Scott Henderson to open the case for the prosecution, From the outset, there was no dispute' that Miles Giffard had done the killings. But the de- fence relied solely on that argu- ment that he was insane under the long-established McNaghten Rules. Such a defence promised a difficult time for the jury: There would be much medical' evidence that would be contr- ary; there would be complica- ted arguments. Yet such a defence was also a calc,ulated gamble on Gif- fard's life. For the jury con- sisted of countrymen. And they were' likely to bring hard com- mon sense to bear when they came to 'analyse the technical arguments. They were likely to say: "We are not sure what all this is about. Let's forget it.". And then a defence of guilty but insane would be rejected, That was the baCkground when Mr. Scott. Henderson rose to 'open the:Clan/en case.' He' had a rare gift of reaching,theniinds' and motives of people: He had brought to 'the Bar a. rake' , fixttire. of simple eloquence and 'skilled forensic thought. 'He . applied ,' both : in his .opening. 'speech to the jeley! "This was premeditated armee' dees Planned' • and planned over deya. So ,he struck first blow against , the 'detente case. Miles' Giffard hardly spared the bar; sister aegialice as the, telling phrases Oiled' Off his lips, He shoWed o iiiter6st When 1VIr, Henderson described the acs Wei :killing's, • For moment Mr. Henderson pailsed and `the': allerate in the ' court ,boifict 0,1rnOst be heard,. Then, picking „Up-a .new: sheaf Of , paperS.7freni'. his bulky, , elbs. bon-tied brief;, he 'Stetted, ter read 'differd'a confessions A •,eOeteaeldri. that'esePtitairied &eh' 'admissions as I scrounged • around. , , I had' been living trona hand to mouth..' .

Went pec Oars I got auto a Pante, There' *ea bleed. everywhere,"' And then he admitted pushing both his parents over the cliffs to the rocks far below., There was silence in the court after that amazing con- fession had been read. Eyes looked with revulsion at the. man in the dock, Even the jury could not conceal• the hor- ror on their faces. But that confession was a bol- ster to the defence. For, argued Mr. John Maude, leading for Giffard, surely it showed that the prisoner was insane?. Mr. Scott Henderson was ready for that. He was able to prove that Giffard, who had gone to London after the crime, had planned the trip days be- fore the- killing. "That," said the barrister, "throws a light on the way his mind was' beginning to work." And he hammered home his theme on cold, calculated mur- der. Then came the medical evi- dence. First, a Cornish police pathologist. He pooh-poohed the suggestion that the injuries in- flicted shown signs of ma- niacal strength. The defence did not press him; he was too adamant 'for their ,liking. Next , into -the witness-box,, went a psychiatrist, Dr. 'Roy'' Craig. He gave the defence a badly needed beliter, Seeded that Miles Giffard had a split mind when he committeed the crime and. did not know what he was doing. Mr. Henderson rose to .ceoss- exarnine, s "Do you not consider that Giffard is nothing more than ti waster?" "I object to the worse avas- ter.' " But Henderson pressed, And question aftee careftil ques- tion started to make the doc- tor's.arguments look a little less secure. Then the, judge took a hand. In one devastating ques- tion he asked: "Has it not occurred to you that by thrdwing his• parents over the cliff he thought to hide the wounds he had, inflicted, and that "that might lead One tie suppose a 'degree. of; reasoning„ that he wanted to cover up what he had done, and ,that there- ,fore he knew what he had clone , was wrong?" Or, Craig refused to accept this. .By new the jury' were wilting Under the medical evi- denCe. `But, they perked up when 'the' Giffard family. doetor 'went:into the witneas. box.
