The Nasty Heart" is the work of John Patrick, an American who has been with British troops in various parts of the world for more than two years as an ambulance driver. It is his third Broadway production and his best, and shows him to be one of the better pros poets among the younger writers. There are a number of things about The Nasty Heart that I did not like, but it does have quality above the routine and should be seen. It is admirably acted.
 Patrick's hero, if you can call him that, is stubborn young Scots sergeant who has had tough time in life and can't believe that people will be friendly unless they are trying to get something out of him. (This is one weak print. he isn't the type of person who would have any favorS to return anyway, 50 methinks he doth protest too much on this point) nyway, he has been wounded the wound has healed yet he has only at most six weeks to llhC LCCduSC lllC olllBlC hlNllIy lAN has left is due to collapse. Nothing can save him. He is sent into ward containing an American, a New ca lander, an African native who does not know English, an Enblishman and an Australian. The boys are told about his condition, which he does not himself know, and asked to be friendly with him in his last weeks on earth. They try hard, even the American of Scottish descent who hates stubborn Scots, but the Scot will have nore of them, It is hard to believe that anyone so complete ly mulish could exist or that his colleagues would put up with him more than "A hours without bash ing in his head This point is over done for credibility so far as l am concerned
 Then there is pretty young nurse, the only woman in the play She tries to help too and is batted down But she talks the others into giving the Scot birthday preSen of complete outfit of kits, which he has never been able to fuy for himself, and this melts him some what. Even to the extent of decid- ing the loves the nurse, proposing marriage and being accepted. Then the doctor is forced by Army regu- lationS to tell the Scott the truth about his condition and he revers to type, believing that friendship shown him has been due purely to pity. He is offered the chance to back to Scotland to die in loneli- ness or remain wit hhiS friends, ard he quickly chooses to leave. But thWe is happy ending Of a sort, which doesn't seem to fit too well and adds further to much inability to accept the play without several reservations.
 There is one thing that Patrick has done admirably. He has taken basically tragic situation and kept it from being morbid at any time. I'll admit that some of the lines he uses to maintain this light touch are on the juvenile side, but generally speaking he did an ex- cellent job in this department. It is so difficult a task that few play w1aghts even attempt 1t.

sent Meredith's film tests to Pyle at his Albuquerque home. Tho manager Of a local theater ran them one afternoon. Later Pyle told Lee Miller:
 Tt was fantastic. There I was and I knew it wasn't me
 Ernie Pyle didn't yawn, though, and showed him his head, shaved when Meredith took off his hat bald a la Pyle.
 Pyle grinned and said:
 NJ yGod, Is that me?"
 When Meredith put the hat back on, Pyle reached over and gave the crown a iaunty slant. That s the way l wear it. he smiled. That's 1t - that's it." Snouted Producer CoWan. We've been worried about that d-n hat ever since the picture started. Never did seme right. But that's it--re- member how it looks, boys The boys said they would remember

AND ERNIE TANNED

AND ERNIE YAWNED
 There was an amusing prologue to the Pyle night club tour. A stu dio limousine picked up MT and Mrs. Pyle and Ernie was greatly impressed by the size of the car and telephoned CoWan.
 This is Ernie Pyle he said I'm fed up - the whole deal is off. You can stop shooting the picture right now"
 Ernie - whats Wrong?" CoWan frantically sputtered
 Its that limousine you just sent over" Pyle said. Don't you like it?" Cowan Sputtered
 Well Pyle Welled. I'm little disappointed. I understand you have one at the studio an inch and half longer"
 For the sake of the record we saw Ernie Pyle eating chicken a la king the next day at Holly wood restaurant. He was still yaWning.
