A TRICK FROM JOE TEMPLE JR

This trick is a three ball finish. Juggling in a normal cascade pattern, you throw one ball high and your hand reaches way up and catches it at the peak of its arc. For the best effect on this juggling move, your hand must reach up above your head AND you should keep your eyes looking straight ahead, not at the ball.

FROM BOBBY MAY  

 

Met Hovey Burgess and was invited to attend his Circus course class at Case Western Reserve Gym, in Cleveland Ohio. Hovey is a remarkable club and ball juggler and a first class teacher. Also met Judy, his wife, also a great juggler and wire walker. Hovey does a trick, balancing on a board on the wire, then bouncing 5 balls, which is certainly unique.

Had a letter from Rudy Horn, he was playing a return engagement at Kelvin Hall in Glasgow Scotland.

Going back to Hovey Burgess, I was very much impressed by the aptitude of the college kids in his class. He had them juggling clubs and balls and it is remarkable what they have accomplished in the short and limited time that Hovey is conducting the Circus Seminar. They were most enthusiastic students, some are pre-Med and Drama students, and their objective is not to do juggling or acrobatic acts, but to learn this side of the Theatre Arts.

Hovey had very good newspaper and television coverage here and deserved the attention the media gave him and the Circus Arts course, which is only for part of this month of January. Then he goes back to teaching the course at N.Y.U.
