Lonesome Pine
Returns to Met.

THAT handsome technicolor classic
of last season. THE Trail OF the
Lonesome Pine" has been brought
back to the Metropolitan Theater this
week for q revival, thereby supplying
ample grounds for a fine argument.
Not about technicolor, to be sure.
Point Is that some of us unanointed
lads insist that Fuzzy Knights rem
dition of stack O'Lee" in this Aim
has more to do with posterity, ances-
try and art than all the colors, the
fine scenic panoramas, the noble his
trionics of such popular favorites as
Sylvia Sidney, Fred MacMurray and
Henry Fonda. Strangely enough, GER
tain other citizens disagree with this
theory.
At any rate, Senor Fuzzy slices of
a large piece Of honors for himself
here, undoubtedly much more than
was intended. His competition Is
confined to the agreeable bounds of
John Fox, jr's, story about feller
from the city who finds it tough
shedding up in them Kentucky hills.
Hero is masculine, terse Mr.. Mac
Murray; the heroine. Miss Sidney.
Fred Stone and Beulah Bondi put
the old rough hew on the mountaineer
characters they portray, and Mr..
Fonda's great aptitude for sullenness
fits in nicely with his role as a hill
billy boy having a run OF tough luck.
Some very outstanding fist fighting
and feuding breaks out in the midst
Of the drammy, and in fact the whole
show provides q lot Of feud for
thought. r. B. p, Jr.

Henry Ford's Visit
In News Shots.

THE much-heralded meeting be-
tween President Roosevelt and
Henry Ford takes first position among
the newsreel clips collected from the
efforts OF all newsreel companies and
edited into the current presentation at
the Trans-Lux. An absorbing sequence
Is that devoted to the question of the
expectation of American helium for
use In German dirigibles. Paramount
filmed the item, which has Secretary
OF the Interior Ickes presenting the
views OF the United States and the
veteran sponsor of lighter than air
craft. DR.. Hugo Eckener, presenting the
German plea.
The momentous operations, one
peaceful. one warlike, have been
caught by the cameras. Eamon De
Valera, premier OF Fire, the former
Irish Free State, IS shown signing the
pact with Britain. and Czechoslovakia
Is pictured marshalling its military
strength. For relief, Lucky Teter,
automobile stunt rider and test man
displays his usual disregard for his own
safety and the tenders of his vehicles,
and Lew Lehr makes his customary
observation on an important phase
Of worldly existence.
The short subjects are Of ordinary
caliber, but one Of them is Hawaiian

at 10000 feet. Out of them they have
made three film sequences that you
should not miss.
They should not be missed, truth to
tell. in spite of the fact that the
basic story is definitely lacking in
wings. Its movement in the telling
of tale Of wife who lives in con-
slant torture waiting for word of the

is mad Tor is that obscure?), contrasts
the more strikingly with the wild mo-
mentum Of those scenes in which pro-

As test pilot, Mr. Gable is a charm
ingly arrogant fellow, who is in love
with his wife but hopelessly fascinated
by the lady Of the skies who wears "a
blue dress" He cannot get the former
out Of his heart, nor the latter out OF
his mind. It makes pretty strong
inner conflict which Gable attempts
to resolve with gargantuan doses Of
alcohol The wife. Miss Loy of course,
lives in constant anguish, an emotion
matched by the quiet despair Of
Spencer Tracy. who is the mechanic
to the test pilot and a man of great
capacity for friendship.
There is little bit too much anguish
and while the talented Tracy does
remarkable comic turns as an escape
from his despair there is somewhat
of an excess of that, too.
Miss 10y is cast in one of her more
convincing parts and she manifests
not merely the attractiveness, but the
talent which has made her second
only to Shirley Temple as q public
favorite. There never was anything
she could do about the protracted
quality Of some of The scenes between
herself, Gable and Tracy and, Besides,
before it became imperative that
something be done. Director Victor
Fleming usually Whipped the camera
around on one of those incredible
aerial sequences.
So vivid is the memory OF these
particular spots, that one is slow to
get around to the point that there
also is a measure of comedy in "Test
Pilot" Some of it is encountered in
the opening interlude when Gable and
Miss 10y are meeting for the first
time, an interval in which it is Demon
strated that test pilots move with
binding speed in some Of their non
professional hours.
Best Of the laugh sequences, how
ever, are those assigned to Tracy. As
the only sane member of the trio, re-
member it is not . triangle. he has

Tom Sawyer Gets
Another Week.
THE ADVENTURES OF TO

THE ADVENTURES OF TOM
SAWYER" being Mark Twain,s
classic OF river-bank boyhood as
brought to the screen by David o. Sell
nick, has returned to F street for a
week at Loew's Columbia. BY now it
has been established that MIR. Selznick
is flne fellow, one of the boys to be
welcomed with a firm handclasp and a
resounding clap on the back wherever
young or old devotees of Tom and his
companions might foregather. This be-
cause Mr.. Selznick has not seen fit to
sell Mark Twain down his Mississippi
River but has recountered his mar
ratives in oelluloid as it was written,
with the result that the picture at the
Columbia turns out to be delightfully."-
familiar thing to those who knew
Tom from way back and those who
have made his acquaintance only re-
Gently.
Tommy Kelly, to whom the banks Of
the East River would be far more
homelike than those OF Mississippi,
plays Tenn Sawyer in convincing style
after the self-consciousness of the first
scenes Is overcome. Master Kelly,
who was snatched from the Bronx by
Mr.. Selznick's minions, has a real act
ing talent; the efforts Of experienced
Hollywood juveniles are pastels beside
his. Jackie Moran has not the back
ground Of some of the others, but
his Huckleberry Finn. nevertheless,
adds little to the total of merit in the
film. Where young Kelly IS q plaus-
ible Tom, Master Moran is certainly
not the Huck met in the book. Ann
Gillis proves q captivating Becky
Thatcher; Mae Jones is excellent as
Mary Sawyer: David Holt most able in
the role of Sid Sawyer.
Mark Twain's story has been dressed
up in technicolor but 1t has not been
tampered with as have so many tales
translated to the screen. The picture
is somewhat longer than might have
been desired with too much footage be-
ing wasted at certain points, but the
friends Of Tom will agree that Mr..
Selmick has done right by him.

"Her Jungle Love" is the story Of
Ray Milland and Lynne Overman, a
pair Of aviators seeking a lost aviator
Their plane (you can't fool us, it's
model, even in the long shots) crashes
In a storm. breaking itself into small
pieces on this island. The crash does
not break the phonograph records,
however, so Mr. Milland has an oppor-
tunity to explain to Miss Dorothy La
mour, after she throws knife at him,
just what is meant by the word kiss
1t is nice the record was not broken,
for then there would have been no
beautiful romance.
Miss Lamour, anyhow, is some sort
of high priestess, who gets hypno-
tized when the boss native from the
next island comes over to sacrifice a
white man (who is the aviator the
other two were seeking) to the croco-
diles. As Mr.. Overman puts it there
are yawning crocodiles all over the

whom 1t is not popular probably will

The ingredients of Mad About

by Herbert Marshall being an affec-

relation with the girl who adopted him
out of clear sky, by Arthur Treacher
as one Of those pluperfect, comic
buffers which only TTeacher can be.
The character which the story be-
slows upon Deanna is that Of the
daughter of a Hollywood glamour girl
who cannot afford to admit the ex-
istence of daughter So the young
ster Is tucked away in one of those
Alpine schools for girls where she is
forced to invent a fabulous father to
make up for an anonymous mother
and in order to regard herself as the
equal of the other girls. Her inven-
tions are sharply contrasted in their
effects. one minute putting Jumps like
boulders in your throat, the next lift
ing you back to plane of merriment
that never becomes downright hilari-
GUS, but who cares?
A very nice spirit of tenderness Is
captured in the relationship between
Marshall as the man whom Deanna
abiucts, not adopts, to be her father,
and the young kidnaper. 1t does much
to atone for the absence of tenderness
between the child and her glamorous
mother, who is not the wicked queen
you may be thinking, but who is rather
the victim Of the Hollywood build-up
system. The mothers role, inciden-
tally, is played by Gail Patrick, who
really has such remote connection
with the picture that one never is
particularly conscious Of her.
Producer Joe Pasternak, the genius
who stands between Deanna and any
one who might try to give her the
wrong kind of story, has kept this one
simple in its every gesture Typical
Is the trick Deanna uses of crossing
