Uninspired
By DEX HUTCHINS
Collegian Reviewer
The State College Community Theatre's production of
"Harvey" by Mary Chase, now at the Boal Barn Playhouse,
is a generally uninspired effort by an indifferent cast which
serves only as a comedy vehicle for the invisible rabbit and
his friend Elwood P. Dowd, played by Joe Servello.
Servello is the star of the show
in every. respect. With the spirit
of "team effort" in his colleagues
as invisible as Harvey himself,
Servello must carry the burden of
the story's forward progress.
With the understanding and
humor of a real trouper he
makes every effort to support
his less polished friends on stage
while masterfully maintaining
the integrity of his own part.
Florence Rowlands as Veta
Simmons, Eli.vood's sister, tries
hard to play a flighty somewhat
self-centered woman. For the most
part she does this with wild ges
ticulation and incoherent bab
bling.
Only in the first scene of the
second act does she slow down
enough to he understood -- re
ceiving applause from the grateful
audience.
Her performance in the last
act becomes especially weak
when the expression of her role
demands a measure of calculat
ed sincerity.
Kenna HoMerman as Myrtle
Simmons is almost as distracting
on stage as Miss Rowlands. Al
though an expert at reciting her
lines and flailing her arms, she
makes no headway as a competent
actress in this particular role.
In happy contrast is the brief
appearance of Grace Holder
man as Mrs. Ethel Chauvenet
whose performance reflects the
learned efforts of a fine actress.
She is the strongest thespian in
the show despite an all too short
appearance on stage.
Mention should be made of the
performance of Harvey, playing
himself. In relation to many of his
fellow actors Harvey is refreshing
in his silence, a delight in his in
visibility. One might say that for
the first time in the history of the
theater, a group of thespians have
been tinstaged and outplayed by
an invisible rabbit.

For the third consecutive
year, the University has been
chosen to present a six-week
Course in industrial engineer
ing to a group of engineers
and professors in engineering
from Mexico.
The International Corporation
Administration, a government or
ganization which supervises this
program, has sent from 20 to 25
people to this campus for train
ing since its beginning two years
ago.
Luis 3. Marentes, a member
of last year's group said that
this
,type of training has been
well accepted both here and in
Mexico.
Marente:, who was studying
mechanical engineering at the Na
tional Polytechnical Institute in
Mexico City, said he liked the
course offered here so well that
he decided to return this year to
pursue his studies in industrial
engineering.
This program has been very im
portant because of the great need'
of industrial engineers in Mexico„
he said. "In this respect," he con
tinued, "Penn State is going to be'

Beside this intense technical
training. Marentes said, the
program also provides some so
cial activities to acquaint the
Mexican students with the
American way of life.
Members of these groups,
through the moral support and
help given by professors and stu
dents, have returned to Mexico
with a very high opinion of Amer
ica and Americans, he said.
