Chase, Atithor |Of “Harvey.” Is ‘Former Reporter | A young Irish housewife in Deh- | ver, Colorado, looked up from her | breakfast table and saw a white | rabbit six feet one and one half} ‘inches tall. His name was Harvey. Since that fateful meeting, many things have happened. Harvey has become a play—the Pulitzer Prize- | winning play of 1945. Harvey, the | character, has also become a leg- end and a conversation piece. And, it must be added, something of a force for good in the land. | And the young woman to whom | Harvey appeared has been lifted by that vision from obscurity and | limited circumstances to sudden wealth and fame. She is Mary Coyle Chase, workingman’'s daugh- ter, who grew up on Denver's tough | West Side—the wrong side of the | tracks. | She attended public schools and | then, for a few months, the Univer- | sity of Colorado, whence she took | away a priceless piece of know- | ledge. From the thoughtless little sorority girls, daughters of well-to- do families, she learned the cruglty | of people and the depths of human | snobbery. Before entering matrimony, | Mary was the brassiest little news- | paperwoman who ever broke into a second story window and snatch- ed a picture of a murdered cutie right out from under the coroner’s nose. She once reported amateur box- | ing matches in Denver, These are | frequently gory, and Mary fainted when one contestant seemed ‘to be | coming apart. When she recovered she kept | right on with her job and her ac- count made the front page. iety — News Of ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE Local Groups Plan Full Schedule For Drama Festival Tomorrow | Players have planned a full day for the Key West Drama Festival | tomorrow.
