Psychic Speaks in Alumni Gym Tonight This evening, the Otterbein student body will have the opportunity to hear Dr. Alex Tanous, a psychic who has lectured on college campuses throught the United States. He will be speaking in the Alumni Gym at 8:00 p.m. Dr. Tanous was born in Van Buren, Maine in 1926. Before the age of two, he had already begun to show very unusual psychic powers. By the time he had reached his teenage years, he had accurately predicted two deaths, one of a family friend, the other of a neighbor's son. Dr. Tanous came by his powers as naturally as a psychic can. Both of his parents are psychic. He was born with the traditional signs of a psychic-a veil_, the mystic cross, and a five pointed star on his left hand. Dr. Tanous is not only a psychic, but also a medium, an educator, and a theologian. He holds many degrees, ranging from a Ph.D in philosophy to a Doctor of Divinity degree.
