By HAP CAWOOI)

The origin of the superstition that connects Friday the
13th with bad luck, unlike other time-wor- n
beliefs, was
wrong from the start.
The connection of Friday the 13th and bad luck is
supposedly deiived from the death of Julius Caesar, who

died, it is believed, on that day.
However, ancient Romans called the thirteenth day,
of right month out of the year, the "Ides." In four
months, March, May, July and October, the Ides fell on
the fifteenth day. It was known that Caesar was killed
on the Ide of March, but that meant he was killed on
a March 13. The Friday has never had any sound

connection with the superstition.
Numbers even, three and thirteen are considered both
lucky and unlucky. Failure to check and see if superstition came tnie has kept the ignorance and supernatural
beliefs in existence even in our modern world.
Checking hotels in New. York, one will find many of

I

them do not number the 13th floor, such as" the Prince
George Hotel. Those with no 13s In either room or
floor numbers are the Roosevelt Hotel. Barblzon-PlazCommodore. Waldorf-AstoriHotel Pierre, and even the
building at 500 Fifth Avenue.
1
Other buildings without
numbering, however,
reported no difficulty in renting.
I have even talked to UK students who will not light
three cigarettes on a match. This superstition began
with an old custom of the priest lighting three altar candles. For anyone else to do this would be to commit a
sacrilege. Russian soldiers did not light three cigarettes
to a match in fear the prolonged light would make a
target for snipers at night. One particular UK student
will not light three cigarettes with a match because when
he did years ago he lost $200 In a poker game.
Thirteen was considered unlucky because ancient
practioncrs of witchcraft believe 12 witches grouped with
Satan in a "covey" to pronounce hexes.

Many hosts and hostesses refuse to seat a thirteenth
person at a table, believing such an action would brine
death within a year to one sitting at that table, Pos-sib- ly
this originated from the painting of the Last Supper.
The Last Supper, as It Is known, was attended by
12 disciples and Christ, who was crucified some timo
afterwards. Too, one might notice that as Judas arises
in the popular painting he knocks over a salt shaker,
hence another superstition.
For those who do believe Friday the 13th Is a bad luck
day, and wish to promote their- chances of tragedy, they
might rely on other common superstitions:
Spill salt to quarrel with a friend.
Count cars in a funeral procession to bring death to
one of your family.
Describe a bad dream or laugh before breakfast.
Step over a broom to obtain a lover.
