THE RUGGED PATH

Spencer Tracy's acting made this perhaps a bigger play than its dramatic value predicted, but it probably reads better than it played, for there are lots of ideas here. It is the story of a newspaper man, caught in the cleft stick of loyalty to the man who gave him his chance- and his daughter- and his own ideals of what a newspaper should stand for in human and social values. When he can't accomplish both, he resigns and goes into the navy, in a lowly capacity- and there wins his chance.
