The glamour and romance sus gested by the soft Brazilian moon, the throbbing rhythm of the Sam- ba, and the tantalizing movements of exotic dancers provide the back- ground for 20th Century-Fox's Technicolor musical, “That Night in Rio,” which stars Alice Faye, Don Ameche and Carmen Miranda, and opens tonight at the 20th Cen- tury Theatre. This latest cinematic contribution of the studio that produced “Down Argentine Way and “Tin Pan Al- ley” is sprinked with catchy tunes by those master tunesmiths, Mack Gordon and Harry Warren. The vivacious Carmen, who is accom- panied by her Banda Da Lua, finds plenty of reason to sing and dance when “I'yi, Yi, , Yi,” “Chica, Chica, Boom Chic,” “Boa Noite” (Good Night), “They Met In Rio” and “The Baron Is In- Conference” are played. Neatly interspersed with the catchy tunes “That Night in Rio” is the intriguing story of a double- dealing double, Don Ameche, who portr first an American night club performer in love with his singing and dancing partner, the glamorous Carmen Miranda. But he is also a Brazilian boulevardier, Baron Duarte, married to the al- luring Alice Faye. It is comedy at its best, and according to preview critics, it is tops as entertainment. e Russians Are Told fo Kill the Beas; That Is Their Sacred Law B (Continued from Page One) | number—or in the case of the Orient, the phrase, “Held by Jap- an”; (4) Country in which camp is located; (5) c/o International Red Cross, Geneva, Switzerland— or for Japan, c/o Japanese Red Cross, Tokyo; (6) Via Chicago.
