Angela Lansbury came to Harvard yesterday afternoon to receive the Hasty Pudding Theatricals' "Woman of the Year Award" for her "great acting ability and femininity."
The three-time Academy Award nominee and 1966 Tony Award winner is currently starring in the Broadway hit-musical Mame. About 500 admirers jammed Holyoke Street to watch her police-escorted motorcade arrive as a contingent from the Harvard University Band struck up "10,000 Men of Harvard."
Inside the Clubhouse when Miss Lansbury received an award plaque and replica of the famous Hasty Pudding Pot, she stammered "I'm so charmed I'm absolutely spitless."
Earlier in the day the actress and her entourage visited Governor Volpe at the statehouse. The Governor surprised all present by proclaiming March 5 "Hasty Pudding Day in the Sate of Massachusetts." This year's Pudding show, All the Queen's Men, open on that date next week.
