There might have been more

Police rounded up the quin-

four homemade blackjacks made
of copper tubing covered with
rubber hose. They also found a

Four of the five youths were

been the thievery and robbery,

satility and acting authority,
as evidenced in the roles he's
portrayed at the Winter Play
house, destine great things in
store for this young man now
on the rocky road to stardom!
Now meet, Harvey Norman.
Many rabbis, doctors, law
yers and businessmen have
emerged from the K or m a n
family, but none of the Kor-
mans ever expected that the
clan would produce an actor.
And yet, only II years after
the blustery February IS, 1927
of Harvey Korman's birth, he
already had his foot in the
doorway to stardom. Harvey
says it all began then, because
his m O her gave him the
choice of either violin lessons
or dramatic school. Il guess
l chose dramatics because it
sounded like less work., Har-
vey admits with a grin.
The nationally known Civic
Theater of Chicago was the
school selected, and H a rvey
S till wildly remembers his
first role. "I was all of eleven,
and I played the part of the
Old English butler in Heidi"
Later on young master Kor-
man studied at Chicago's Co
lumbia College of Radio and
Drama, where he added radio
experience to the training al
ready begun for the legitimate
theater.
A Respite
And then came adolescence
and high school, when acting
became SISSY stuff. Not un-
til Harvey's senior year did
his love for the sta G e re-
awaken, where at Sem High
School his dramatic achieve
ments are still remembered
and discussed. His formal col
Iege schooling was terminated

by Harvey's service in the
Navy for a year and a half,
and he ruefully says that it
was pretty uneventful. II
fought the b a t I'll e of Miami
Beach.
After his d i S h a r G e, the
great Goodm an Theater
School was Harvey's goal, and
although the school was filled
to over-capacity his obvious
talent and equally obvious per-
sistence gained his admission.
While still at school, Harvey
spen t his summers playing
stock and occasionally shared
television roles. AS with other

graduation H vey made a

Since Harvey was prepared
for a long struggle before he
got a break, his l a n d in g a

to be. Six we ks of work
