 f I'm Lucky
 Stars Perry Como

Campaigning for entertainment ballots on platform of love, laugh ter and song, 20th Century-Fox's newest musical hit, If I'm Lucky, starring Vivian Blaine, Perry Como, Harry James and Carmen Miranda, opened its local campaign Wednes- day at the Loew-Polie Theater.

Unsuccessful in snaring radio program, the band, through the ef- forts of its hungry manager, Phil Silvers, finds itself the attraction at series of political rallies ostensibly held to elect Edgar Buchanan to the office of Governor When Como, shy, song-writing crooner becomes attached to the band, its popularity begins to expand beyond state lines.
 Six hit songs feature If I'm Lucky" including: Follow The Band" If I'm Lucky" "Bet Your oOCtOIu OOlldI, O1le MOT6 h1SS, "Batucada" and Moon of Jade"
 Miss Blaine, in the role of the bands canary who can't make up her mind between Como and James, is called upon to exhibit all the outstanding singing and dancing talent that has brought her to the top of the Hollywood musical lad der.
