"Science teacher, Allan Stawicki, uses all the magic he can muster to
explain science - a transposition akin to pulling hats from rabbit, but
one which earns the unconventional instructor national recognition and
the admiration of his students.
Stawicki's students don’t just disappear. They re-appear, long after the
lesson is over to the teacher whose magic worked."
The kids love to guess how I do the tricks. It's great to see an
auditorium full of students trying to figure it out, or trying to
duplicate the magic." - January/February 1991 Issue
of Single Life Magazine by Jeffrey White.
