To say she is just buxom is the understate- ment of the year since she weighs over 200 pounds. She got a big hand and deserved it for natural comedy flare. Blonde Sayeda, the gal with the accordiah middle, is a good reason why Arabs stop folding their tents. Her exotic dance has an Oriental way and sway. Something bright has been added to that old black magic in the flashlight dance of Betsie Lee who believes in hiding her light under a swirling veil in- stead of a bushel ,.. and she’s several bushels of entertainment in the novelty dance in which she uses two flashes to put a little roving light on the subject. Dance of the Lovers is a dou- bie-header. Benita Francis uses | her own head, and an attached | one belonging to a dummy danc- ing partner.
