Some Roles in 'Harvey'

Monday opened an envelope
containing a $10 check drawn
on the bank of Loogootee,

"Some years ago I lived in
Wayne and made a couple of
trips to Eloise (Wayne county

The Lord has saved me since
then and I want to make res

mesh well.
No One's Fault
I don t think it was any
one's fault. It was just that
Miss Lome and Smith-lean
ing hard on stage technique
played their roles much larg
er than life. They turned out
broad, exaggerated portraits,
almost caricatures of people
Eut very funny caricatures.
Carney and some of the
lesser players-notably Eliza
beth Montgomery-underplay
ed a little. Their acting was
very televisionish. As a result
Miss Lome and Smith tended
to swallow up. those in the
cast like Carney who under
stated.
This constrast of styles
seemed to give "Harvey" an
occasional awkwardness, a
herky-jerkiness of mood
Aside from that, thumbs up
again.

WATCH AMERICA'S CUP RACE The President and
Mrs. Eisenhower board destroyer USS Mitscher in New
port, R. L, to r watch the opening of the America's Cup
race between the U. S. yacht Columbia and Great Britain's
Sceptre. Yankee boats have held the cup since the first
race in 1851 when the schooner America captured a $500
silver cup that has cost Great Britain 20 million dollars
trying in vain to recover.
Interplanetary
Travel Said Still
Long Way Off
Portland Earthlings
may be exploring Mars and
Venus before the end of the
20th century but true inter
planetary travel is still a
long way off, an Army offic
ial said Monday.
Lt. Col. Paul D. Hickman
of the Industrial College of
the Armed Forces said a lot
more speed is needed before
patrol of outer space can be
gin.
Aquatic Life Possible
Hickman told the Portland
National Resources Confer
ence that the possibility exists
of finding aquatic life on
Venus and there was evidence
of plant life and therefore pos
sible animal life on Mars.
But he said a trip to Mars
and back would take about
2V2 years, a pretty lonely" ex
cursion. This would be at a
"slow" speed of 25,000 miles
an hour.
Col. Hickman said a satel
lite station in space would
have more psychological than
practical value. He said the
moon would be of greater
value for an observation sta
tion.
He said that if we don't
conquer space "another na
tion will."
Hickman said the first
space patrollers may be men
manning "solar sailboats. He
said sails have been proposed
as a means of propulsion in
outer space. He said plastic
sails covered with aluminum
would draw enough power
from the sun to propel a veh
icle through space.
More than 250 civilian in
dustry leaders and reserve of
ficers were on hand for. the
opening of the two-day con
ference. Gov. Robert D.
Holmes welcomed the dele
gates.

over Sherman Adams' job as

"Nobody has discussed! the
matter with me," he said, add

"As secretary of the inter

my present job and I know
