Spencer Tracy. The Irish" in Mr..
Tracy is what he uses to explain
what his intimates call unpredicat-
ability, a quality hardly known to
his fans who usually are 100 per
cent safe in predicting excellence in
any Tracy performance.
Latest persons to undertake
analysis Of the Tracy temperament,
makeup, or whatever one prefers
to call it. are not psychiatrists. They
are. instead, Pat Elsey, his trainer.
and Ted Larsen his makeup man.
Ask them, or don't, and they will
tell you that the Tracy lack of equili-
brium is due to his "hypersen-
sitivity," their word for it even If it
does sound too professional for
trainer and makeup man.
According to Elsey, Tracy is an
athletic, fun-loving, hail-fellow-
well-met one minute, the next one
so lost to his usual attitudes that he
scarcely knows his friends and
wants only solitude. "Hypersensitiv-
ity," he says Always, take it from
Elsey, Spencer's moods are mercu-
rial. His favorite illustrative anec-
dote is one concerning the actions
of Tracy during the making of
Northwest Passage" One day on
location, with nothing else to do,
Tracy and other members of the
cast spent all their spare moments
planning the widest ocean voyage
ever conceived by the mind of man.
Hours and hours they let their fan
cies roam until the remainder of the
cast became so immersed in the no
ton they could not sleep. Next
morning each was prepared with an
elaborate ornamentation of the
original notion. They were eagerly
awaiting his appearance to tell him
their ideas. When he finally ap-
peared, he ignored them all, gave
the impression that the whole sub
ject was something he never had
heard of In his life. Tracy was ready
then to play an important scene.

The climax of the two hour and

ton made by Mr.. Stokowski Of
Moussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhi-

this colorful work in this version,
a deeper tinge of native character
which makes the humorous bits
little more grotesque and brings a
greater fantasy to the others cul-

The enthusiasm of the audience
was unbounded at the conclusion of
the program and the noted conduc-
tor was called back repeatedly. On
his last appearance Mr.. Stokowski
left serious thought with his lis
teners. He spoke of the troubled
times in Europe and asked that
this country and all those of this
hemisphere continue the cultiva-
ton of the beautiful as the one
place where art can flourish In the

'Pocahontas' Here
Saturday Morning

As Samuel Goldwyn or one OF the
Hollywood people once remarked OF
a picture, colossal with Indians, u
"Pocahontas" comes to the National
Theater Saturday morning with real
Indians in the Indian roles. The
play, the second on this year S
schedule of the Children's Theater
of New York, will be shown in
Washington at this one performance
only.
Lone Bear, who played Powhatan
when the production was at the
National five years ago, this year
is the medicine man to the Indian
chief, a role which gives him much
more opportunity for his authentic
Indian songs and dances. Last
summer Lone Bear gave a recital at
Hyde Park for the King and Queen
of England.
A limited number of tickets for
"Pocahontas" still are available at
the Office Of the Childrens Theater
