fashion, is a creature with an Off
standard but ferocious sense of
right and wrong. He is capable
of such diverse performance as
shooting down a revenue agent
and following this up with the in
vention Of the short-stroke, light
weight f1rearm that served mil
lion American troops in World
War II.
AS is nearly always the case,
much of the drama of such a man
is Of the internal type. This does
not make for a picture of seething,
sustained action. Nevertheless,
"Carbine Williams" Is q reason
able exception to the rule that the
pace Of movies must be breakneck.

Marsh (Carbine) Williams, one
Of those Strangest-characters-I-
ever-met types, whose story was
told to millions in several popular
magazines, also is one of the
strangest Stewart ever played. He
has his private ideas of what is
right and what is wrong and,
given time, he is capable of being
convincing about his code.
This is exactly what happens to
him in the picture. He is given
time, 30 years, for the killing of a
revenue agent who has the bad
judgment to raid Marsh's still.
That he was more than a moon
sinner and rebellious chain gang
habitue, he is able to prove when
he inventS the basic carbine used
by the American armed forces.
For this he won his freedom in
1929. No man ever earned it a
harder way and few have earned
more intense admiration in the
process. Director Richard Thorpe
is content to tell the story in the
documentary terms in which Will
liamS lived it. This is the honor
able thing If not the conventional
one in Hollywood. It also is the
proper one in view of the fact
that Williams is still around and
possessed, no doubt, of the same
ferociouS integrity.

In Footsteps of

That part of America lying west
of the Hudson and Potomac Rivers
will be happy in the hands of
Elaine Stritch. Miss Stritch, sue
cessor to Ethel Norman in Call

performance at the National yes
terday afternoon and it was just
fine.
Miss Norman, herself, led the
cheers for Miss Stritch. This was
as it should be-but probably
would not be except in the case Of
Miss Merman-for no replacement
ever met a greater test of courage
and talent.

and David Daniels for Russell

Incidentally. the special matinee
featuring the new performers,
makes it quite clear that Miss
Norman and her older colleagues
have not been ad libbing Call Me

turns out that Russell Grouse and
Howard Lindsay wrote a warm,
witty and lively book that is full
of life and laughter even when
Miss Norman is merely sitting in
the audience.
Miss Norman will give her last
two performances in the musical

eminent.
Stewards portrait Of williams
is that of a man who knows the
tricks of making statutory vice
look like virtue. This is revealed
convincingly for the first time at
the murder trial. The State can
not prove that Marsh Williams
fired the fatal shot. but even to
save his freedom Marsh will not
say he did not fire 1t. So he is
adjudged guilty by tacit consent.
In prison. which provides most
of the setting of the film, he
remains ruggedly the individual.
He may have been convicted. but
he is no convict. He is too proud
to remain in contact with the
family he has disgraced. He hates
being treated as an offender for
having done nothing more than
defend his property against in
vaders. Thus he exposes himself
to every disciplinary brutality of
the South's penal system, one
chain gang after another.
First ray of light in Williams
years of darkness is when he be-
gins the most relentless of his
personal feuds, that with Prison
Capt. H. T. Peoples (Wendall
Corey. This is a firm man, even
a bit of a stuffy one, but he is
the only one intelligent enough to
ultimately detect that Marsh
Williams is a prisoner of distinc-
ton.
It is he who makes possible the
carbine invention. This he does
by turning Williams loose in the
prison blacksmith shop with a
junked motorcar axle, a wise and
a common hand file. Out OF
these impossible materials and
toolS-and five obseSsed years
Williams made the carbine.

What's wrong with movie

thing.
Look over the hit tunes in the
past few years and see how many
of them have originated in new
film musicals. Very few. The
reason is that most of the films
are tuned up with songs dug out
of the catalogues. There prob
ably hasn't been a good new
musical score in films since
Rodgers and Hammerstein lent

The good song writer's are still
in business. Song hits have to
come from somewhere. So why
don't producers try for whistlable
new scores instead Of digging out
the oldies? Best news in this
line is that Harold Arlen and
Dorothy Fields have whipped up a
score for "The Farmer Takes a
