Tobacco Road
Packs National
For Ninth Time
Venerable Drama
OF the Testers
Still Robust

When it was converted into a
movie a couple Of years ago, at the
fabulous old age of eight years,
there were those who said that was
the end of Tobacco Road" They
were glad, these people who said it.,
not because they are unkind and like
70 see plays die, but because they
felt that like an aged and feeble pet
it would be better off. Interment in
celluloid appealed to them as gen.
tie and fitting end, a kind of hon
orable and deserved adieu after a
period of having lain in state, so to
speak. 1t was deemed especially
lifting that John Ford was to con-
duct the farewell ritual, for no di-
.ector in Hollywood was so able to
give the exercises the proper note of
eIoquence, understanding and even
nobility. That was the way it was
Two years ago and no one was un-
happy, including those who had
found the play the most enduring
livelihood in the modern theater's
history.
Yes, that's the way it was two
years ago and it was very silly, for
Tobacco Road" turned up again
last night at the National Theater.
An almost packed house saw it.
which clearly means it is not dead
at all and probably never will be.
Generation after generation perhaps
will 60 on seeing it and actors play
.ng the various roles will fulfill their
biological destinies, hand their roles
down to their sons or daughters, and
every one will be happy.
No ghost in this ninth version of
Tobacco Road" to be seen at the
National. The old unconquerable
lustiness of the Testers. Jeeter, his
offspring, and of their neighbors
still is capable of casting the old
spell. The play has come to have
quite standing as a piece of dra-
matte literature, but that apparently
cuts no more ice than when it
originally opened. What counts is
the Testers, who rise fascinatingly
out of the exhausted soil of their
Georgia farm, who make a strange
and noble kind of happiness from
the land that will not even yield
them an adequate diet of turnips.
A poor, profane and wonderful fam
'ly they are and the story of their
survival is rather a cheerful thing
at time when survival seems
dubious or of questionable value.
The cast, headed by John Barton,
2,250 times Jeeter with last nights
performance, treats the play with
the respect it merits. J.

they found her.
That has been done at long last.
Miss Tierney, as far from a sarong
as an fashioned shirtwaist, has
the principal role in Heaven Can
Wait"
Her friends are poised to shout as
one, II told you so," when the pub
lie has had a chance to react to
Hollywood's new consciousness Of
her.
Speaking of THE Male Animal" )"
its co-author, director and male
star, Elliot Nugent, is winning a
new kind of distinction on Broad
way at this writing. 1t is that
which comes to him as the director
of Tomorrow the World" a drama
of modern children, the most spec
tacular one of which is a Nazi refu-
gee in a Middlewest community.
Widely and properly, Mr.. Nugent is
given credit for having shaped the
performance of young Skippy
Homeier into one of the finest pieces
Of child acting in decade.
The job is the one Nugent took
when Katharine Hepburn changed
her mind so quickly, closed with
out Love-" and dashed off to Holly
wood that way to make Keeper of
the Flame" That left him with
no play to star in, so, versatile chap
he is, he chose to direct Tomorrow
the World" in preference to return
ing to Hollywood.
1t seems to have worked out Just
fine as a choice.
incidentally, another Nugent,
Nancy, makes her debut and bril-
liant one in Tomorrow the World"
1t won't be news, however, until
some Nugent decides not to make
the theater career.
Enthusiastic critics of Tomorrow
the World" have pointed out that
the play, stating the problem of the
Hitler-trained child in the postwar
world, should tour the country.
Since its outstanding player,
Skippy, is but lad of II, the drama
falls without the scope of the local
child labor law, which permits no
actors of such tender years on the
stage of the National.
1t was the same regulation which
prevented Watch on the Rhine"
from playing an engagement at the
National. That prize winning drama
was limited to but single perform
ance in Washington, the command
performance which served as a cur
tain-raiser to the Presidents BIRTH
day celebration two seasons ago.

make its entertainment packages

The second time Hollywood laid
eyes on Miss Tierney was when she
arrived to go to work there. What
happened to its first impression no
one ever has heard, but it was de-
cided Immediately that Miss Tier
ney was more the dark fiery, or
smouldering, than the vital coed
type. Right away it started throw
ing her into scripts which really
would have been more suitable for
Dorothy Lamour, forgetting entirely
that she had such winning way
with comedy. One after another
they came until even her keenest
admirers in her legitimate theater
days forgot that Miss Tierney was
a much better actress than she was
being allowed to be. And a much
more winsome personality, too.
Things like that happen in Holly
wood and the custom is to shrug and
accept them as inescapab1e. Even
the immediate victim takes that at
titude on occasion, the pay and the
climate offering compensatory re-
lief.
Once that situation becomes the
situation, it usually remains such.
Happily in Miss Tierney's case it
did not. When several pictures left
her Goth Century-Fox employers
with an uneasy feeling that her po-
tential popularity had not been real
lied, they fell to wondering. In
their review of her life and times
In Hollywood they got all the way
back to the beginning, the occasion
on which the talent man saw her,
whipped out his contracts and got
her name on the proper line.
All of sudden, at that point,
they realized that Miss Tierney was
hired under an altogether different
impression than both had been
working on. Why she was glamor-
pus. and gifted with nice comedy
sense! What were they doing US
ing her in these South Sea settings?
Were they crazy?
Answering no such embarrassing
question as that last one in any
abrupt affirmative, they, neverthe-
less, decided maybe it was high time
to get back to fundamentals and cast
