The driver used the steering wheel for a drum, tapping out the rhythm and grip ping the wheel only when-the cab began to veer. Earlier, during our visit here, Jorge Guinle's cabin-cruiser pilot steered with his toes while he perched on high not only because it left his hands free to slap a beat but also because it was the only way he could see where he was going over the heads of the Rock Hudson-Marilyn Maxwell entourage lolling topside.

At 11 p. we boarded the special bus and followed the motorcycle escort in a wild ride through the streets swarming with celebrants to the doors of the Teatro Municipal. The route skirled the mobs jammed in the vast Praca Paris. I'd walked through this plaza one night some years ago with Walter Pidgeon, who described his experience at this spot one Car naval time. "I wouldn't have missed It for a million dollars," said Pidgeon, "and I wouldn't go through It again for 5 million." Inside the theater, brightly bedecked for this gala night, were 5,000 people in assorted costumes, some alone, some in' pairs and some in parties.

Hours on end they danced; cir cling the hall, wheeling, singing. Lights played across the stomping throngs who seemed unmindful of time or the heat. To them the Carnaval samba was like the burning cinders trod by Africans under spell with no harm befalling the true believers. The air was heavy with frenzy and song. The TV lights concentrated on the box where the visiting Hollywood notables were standing, as if in a royal box.

He doffed his dinner jacket and tie, chose a Brazilian dance partner and descended into the pit. The tall Hudson made the circuit of the floor, his head a target for confetti and embrace because he towered above them all. At 3 a. m. the dancing halted for the fancy costume contest.

A bridge was lowered from the ceiling and spanned the floor of the Teatro Municipal. The contestants walked across it, all too slowly, stretching their moment of glory. Costumes glittered with feathers and spangles, and there was a Sputnik head-dress made of white beads each outfit representing a full year's work, and planning. The two women who tied for first place wore $5,000 costumes reminiscent of Ziegfeld and the early Hollywood musicals.
