Even Invisible Rabbit Gets
Behind CiUic Center Project

Everybody - or almost every
body including Harvey, the
invisible rabbit, is working for
the creation of funds for the
proposed Rockville Civic Center.
The Rabbit, known as Harvey,
will be much talked about on the
evening of Feb. 10 when the
Rockville Little Theater group
puts on the play of the same
name in the Christ Church
parish hall with all proceeds to
go to the civic center building
fund.
Harvey" is really coming
back to Rockville for this civic
enterprise since the Theater
staged the play last year when
it was the hit of the season.
j. Hodge Smith, who will play
the role of Elwood P. Dowd, the
bemused but ardent friend of
Harvey, is well known to local

there were eighteen represented.
That is quite showing!
Now, let's work towards getting
the All-America Award next year
by getting behind the new prof.

The first move in this direction is
to support the c. G. c.. Dance to

All proceeds from the dance, as

of-this world because Mrs. Gordon
Rudd has gone about with paper
mache, plywood, etc. to fashion
the most fabulous furbeloWs-
and she is just the one who can do
it. And a little bird told us that
the entertainment planned for
that evening is, in itself, worth
the $500 admission. Don't miss
this big event and your big chance
to donate to our Civic Center.
Tickets may be gotten from Mrs.
Gordon Rudd at Pc. 1852 or Mrs.
Samuel Carr, at Pc. 6463.
Another worthwhile project
this weekend, and one which the
whole family can enjoy, is the
showing of the Walt Disney movie

benefit of the PTA.

And don't forget PTA Meeting.
The program planned for this
month is one you will not want to
miss. 1t is an Indignation pro-
gram. Two eminent speakers, our
Superintendent of Schools, DR..
Forbes Norris, and the Superin-
tendent of Mckinley Technical
School, Washington, D. c., will
speak on this very important sub
ject. After their speeches there
will be period of discussion and
the audience will be invited to ask
questions of the speakers.
PLEASE NOTE: The meeting is
Thursday, Feb. 18th. Future
meetings will be held on the sec
ond Tuesday of each month, as
usual.
We have another very import
ant meeting next week, with a
program about vital subject.
Monday night is the regular
monthly meeting of the Silver
Rock Citizens Association. The
program is on Civil Defense. The
speaker, Clarence Mohler, Rock
ville's Civil Defense Director, will
tell us, what Rockville Citizens
Can Do in the Civil Defense Pro
gram" Also, the film we prom
ised to announce, the colored film
of the first H-Bomb explosion,
Operation Ivy, will be shown. 1t
will be a great visuad aid for Mr..
Mohler, we are sure. What an in
genious combinationI
When calling Mrs. Gordon Rudd
for her final report on the March
of Dimes Campaign in Broadwood
Manor, we were pleased to learn
that our area cooperated whole
heartedly. The incident in her
fund soliciting that touched Mrs.
Rudd most was the admirable ges-
ture of 5-year-old Davy Davidson,
in putting all of his savings into
her March of Dimes collection.
We recall that Biblical truth,
"And a little child shall lead
them"
