Magician Performs Mike Blazic watches closely while Chat- lie Myrlc escapes the ropes. Charlie Myric, a great es- cape artist, visited RV on Nov. 5, 1982. He escaped from ropes, handcuffs, chains, and finally, from a terrifying straight jacket. He allowed Mr. Holloman and Mr. Gustin to wrap it around him.
