A Brave Volunteer Charles Mitchell is a brave soul. He volunteered for the guinea pig role at a Forsythe Junior High School assembly during which Michael Crain of Tennessee put on a karate demonstration. Charles is being shown how to crack a man's ribs and chest. Crain, a Baptist preacher, gives assemblies nationally. In public schools, the performances are secular with an anti-drug abuse, smoking and drinking theme, but in church schools, they have a spiritual emphasis. He also put on demonstrations in the Ypsilanti Baptist High School where he split a watermelon blindfolded off a man's stomach with a sabre sword, and broke 300 pounds of ice with his bare hands.

Make-up is necessary for TV performers, even men, workshop leaders advised. Without make-up a person looks washed out and even a fresh shave tends ot look like "five o'clock shadow" in a close-up, they said. Eyebrow pencil is used to darken eye brows and pancake make-up to hide beards. Prof. Stasheff shows Rev. Mr. Mitchell how to make up. Being made up is Rev. Malcolm B. Ballinger, University Hospital chaplain.
