Egyptians from the time of Mem.phis to the Ptolemaic period began*

Glimpse* of Future
Editor, Tribune: Having
j.jst returned from the an
nual Rosicrucian .convention
in San Jose, Calif., and inv
pressed with the * various
demonstrations along sci
entific, mystical, and philo
sophical lines, may I pre
sent a reminiscence of one of
such scientific demonstra
tions, dealing with such ordi
nary phenomena, as "color
which will certainly be of
great interest to many of
your subscribers.
In the course of various
performances at the yearly
Rosicrucian convention, one
particularly interesting sci
entific demonstration, mak
ing fabulous impressions
u p o n the delegates, was
presented on the simple
phenomena of color. It
made one wonder, how many
people know that the color
of anything is simply the
wave length of light which
bounces back when the ob
ject Is struck by light, and
that without light being
reflected, it would have no
color at all? Or, how many
people know that the colors
we can see can be affected by
our emotional states; or that
colors can have a direct bear
ing on our health and peace
of mind?
With attention to just one
small factor like this, people

While philosophical in ap
proach, the Rosicrucian theory
appears to fit in with the latest
scientific speculation regarding
anti-matter.
Some astronomers think it
possible that our universe is
balanced by another universe
composed of anti matter. If so,
it is logical to assume that
some of the anti-planets are
populated by anti-people.
1 am convinced that the antipeople are the ones who have
been practicing "thought m igra

Therefore, I am not going to
worry any more about whether

Ceremony, Picnic
On or about the fall equinox,
S e p t e m b e r 21, Rosicrucians
throughout the world will cele
brate the building of the pyra
mid of Gizeh in Egypt by an out*!
door ritualistic ceremony and
picnic, according to Robert
Mallet. Master of the local
group.
Mallet said that the local
Pronaos, which expects soon to
assume chapter status, will hold
a ceremony Sunday at 1:30 p.m.
at the home of Hyram Coueyl
on Swanton road, beyond Daven
port.
The ceremony will be fol
lowed by a pot luck picnic lunch
and all Grand Lodge members
are invited and may bring |
guests.
Mallet explained that the
Great Pyramid was not just a
burial place for a vain pharoah
but was actually a temple of
initiation for candidates for the
ancient mystery schools.
He said that since the Rosi
crucians traced their traditional
origin to these mystery schools
the annual pyramid ceremony is
held to commemorate this event
and to rededicate themselves to
the realization of their high
ideals.

Hun about 3,000 B.C. at the time
of the autumnal equinox, and
was a temple of learning.
Since the Rosicrucians trace
Iheir origin back to this period

Among other things, they are
to see that Rosicrucian informa

the official publications of the
Order,>areumade^a.vail ableJto.Jibraries and boolcsfores ftii at re

According to Baker, it is also
a Volunteer's duty to be aware
of community service in which
the Order can participate and
help as the occasion arises.
The Rosicrucian Order, AMORC, is a nonsectarian, philo

a system of metaphysical and

Defense Wins
Round In
Sirhan Case
LOS ANGELES <AP) Law
yers for Sirhan Bishara Sirhan,
charged with murdering Sen.
Robert F. Kennedy, have won
the right to examine a list of
prosecution witnesses and pro
secution evidence, including ntebooks said to be Sirhans dia
ries.
Mayor Sam Yorty has said
the notebooks contain a state
ment that Kennedy must be illied by June 5. The senator was
fatlly shot last June 5 at the
Ambassador Hotel.
Sirhans lawyers have said
the notebooks were seized ille
gally, but Superior Court Judge
Herbert V. Walker ruled they
are admissable. He turned them
over to the defense for study
Monday.
Defense attorneys toted them
cut of the court in a big card
board box, also containing state
ments by Sirhans high schoo
classmates and th* names o
prospective prosectuion wit
nesses.
One item requested by the de
fense apparently bothered Sir
han. No, no, he said as Walk
er handed over statements by
members of the Rosicrucian
Lodge.
The Rosicrucian order is a
mystical group based in San
Jose, Calif. Sirhan, a 24-year-old
Jordanian, reportedly joined it
and wrote to it from jail.
Sirhan agreed that his law
yers and prosecuting attorneys
could meet m private to talk
about his case without him.
One of his lawyers told news
men a psychiatrist from the Uni
versity of California school of
criminology visited Sirhan in his
cell earlier in the day.
Were going to have every
test made we know of, said an
other.
Sirhan looked pale but confi
dent. He swiveled in his curtroom chair and flashed smiles
at newsmen. The judge said he
Icould be immunized against the
Hong Kong flu.
