the year. One, “Tortilla Flat,” played The other, “Joan of Paris,” stayed made a good: showing for itself another week. Spencer Tracy turns in one of his outstanding characterizations in “Tortilla Flat,” the movie ver-

sion of the John Steinbeck novel.

Called by Hollywood an actor's actor, Mr. Tracy lives up to that tribute with his characterization of the good-natured rascal, Pilon. Other roles in the film are more or less ordinary except, perhaps, that of the bearded tramp, Frank Morgan. John Garfield and Hedy Lamarr form the picture’s romantic team and Akim Tamiroff takes the role of Pablo. It will be at the Irving and Rivoli tomorrow through Sunday and the Belmont, St. Clair, Speedway, Strand and Uptown Sunday through Tuesday.

A WAR DRAMA of the first rank is “Joan of Paris,” the film which serves to introduce Michele Morgan and Paul Henreid in their first Hollywood-made production. And it is one which the American public will not soon forget. Miss Morgan is a barmaid in Nazi occupied Paris who falls in love with the leader of an R.

The rubber shortage has been particularly disastrous to the makeup departments, which used it for noses, double chins and calves of legs for such thespians as Jack Benny, when they had to wear tights. Hair for wigs, imported from the Balkans, is no more. Jack Dawn the makeup chief at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, .is making his wigs of synthetics, similar to those used in tooth brush bristles and women’s hosiery; he claims the fake hair is better than the genuine article.

It came fron{’ middle Europe and there is no substitute, while the balsa wood that went into the chair legs that crashed on the villain’s noggin likewise has disappeared. It all came from the Philippines. All studios have air raid shelters. Warner Brothers have signs which say: “Run, don’t walk, to the nearest shelter.” R-K-O Pathe’s signs say “Walk, don’t run.” Cecil B.
