Pooka or Not, 'Harvey' Begins Five-Day Bovard Run Tonight
An invisible rabbit will caper in Bovard auditorium tonight at 8:30 when the drama department presents
“Harvey.”
“Harvey,” which has been produced on both the stage and the screen, depicts likable, easy-going Elwood P. Dowd and his 6-foot imaginary bunny.
Trouble begins when Dowd breaks up a party being given by his sister, Veta Simmons, in honor of her daughter, Myrtle Mae, by introducing Harvey to his sister’s friends.
Dismayed at his actions, Mrs. Simmons tries to have Dowd commited to an institution for the insane, only to find herself commited instead.
With Mrs. Simmons’ efforts to convince the doctors that Dowd and not she is insane and the subsequent attempts of the authorities to catch Dowd, the play wends along its whimsical way.
Heading the cast as Dowd is Edward Earle, while Frieda Callahan will play Veta Simmons, Dowd’s sister.
Dr. Chumley, head of the sanitarium to which Dowd is almost commited, will be acted by Bob Wallace, and Elaine Masser will play Myrtle Mae, Dowd’s “man-hun-gry” niece.
Love interest will be furnished by George Dubravsky, as the young psychiatrist, and Jan Saunders, as Nurse Kelly. Stan Johnson will complete the roster with his performance as Judge Gaffney, the family lawyer. The director is William C. de Mille.
The play will be presented every night except Sunday until Apr. 10.
Tickets may be purchased before the performances for 50 cents. Students with activity books will be admitted free.

‘‘We realize that our lists of potential members are not complete and hope that those we have not reached will consider this announcement as an invitation to attend the tea,” she said.
The club would sponsor occasional lectures and discussions, provide an opportunity for meeting visiting professors, and maintain a per-

Miss Dillon said that the restrictions on minors are not for health precautions but only because of parental jurisdiction.
Quota Effort A committee headed by Miss Dillon and co-chairman Phil DeBriere will continue to visit houses and living groups in an effort to reach the quota early. The School of Law has asked to give as a group, Miss Dillon said, and any other school back him. He said he would be may enter.	happy to have the Trovets’ sup-

Counting of ballots will not take place until 4 p.m. of the third day of voting. Actual counting of ballots will be done in the Senate chambers by counting teams of members of parties concerned.
Party chairmen, Interfratemity Coordinator Richard E. Berg, and members of the Senate Investigating committee will serve as observ-
individuals, although his remarks were understood by some as being aimed at Van Laanen s new party.
After McCann made his opening remarks, Van Laanen defended himself by saying he felt as if he weie within his own rights by forming the party.
