He was sleeping late this morning and I was ordered not to disturb him “because he is tired.” So the bed didn’t get made until after noon when he was told to get up because “sister is having a | birthday party and the house has to be straight.” I guess he did, but the porch light was turned on so he could find his way home tonight. But let’s face it — the Players’ production of ‘Harvey’ is good and even in its second week the cast manages to keep it fresn and have added some hilarious bits of ‘“bus- iness” that make it even funnier. Barbara Anastasia playing ‘‘Myr- tle Mae” is turning in a very good ! performance and David Meneghel’s “Dr. Sanderson” isn’t quite so stuf- | fy. Maybe it’s Lari Monroe’s hum- anizing influence as “Kelly” or maybe Harvey had something to do with it. Cmdr. Pierce and Gertrude Splaine as Dr. Chumley and his wife Betty are far more at ease than they were the first night, and the “Akron” scene remains one of | the highlights of the play.

Young Rob Campbell showed that small boys are not forgotten when Santa plans his dolls — he was “an old cowhand” and for big sis- ter, Marcia Nonnemacher was dressed as a “cowgirl” doll. With dolls getting bigger every year, Beverly Sue Jones was a big ‘‘sailorette” doll while “‘Rag- gedy Ann” was Faye Huenefeld who not only «modeled but gave a clear reading about the doll she Portrayed. Linda Nonnemacher was present- ed as the dancer from “The Tin Soldier” in a ‘military ballet’ that was well received. After the doll revue, Miss Ruth Ann Kearns, accompanied by Char- les Lord, sang several numbers while the “dolls” were getting dressed for a tea party. Then all dressed up they came out one by one in their Sunday best. Rob Campbell was the “star” of this scene. He wore brown slacks motif and once when it looked like one of the dolls was going to be late for the party, Master Rob solved matters with a second show- ing of his smart little outfit. Marilyn Biaza modeled a ‘‘spe- cial occasion” dress of sheer white nylon trimmed with lace and. rose- buds. Julie Taylor showed a smart The hostess served refreshments at the conclusion of the meeting.
