...Tender Trap (Pablo Beltran orchestra; Victor). A high-swinging version of a low-swinging tune, recorded, of all places, in Mexico. The band sounds something like the old Lunceford band, with its happy-go-lucky saxes, its smooth trombones and its nice beat, but adds its own modern flavor...

A task force of U.S., British, Australian and New Zealand warships knifed northward through the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Siam.

For a while it looked as if three expert players could bring off the tender, sophisticated, 25-year-old Hungarian fantasy about a "little glowworm" usherette (Julie Harris) who wants to be a good fairy to a highly moral but impoverished lawyer (Walter Slezak), is pursued by an immensely wealthy but engagingly unethical Lothario (Cyril Ritchard), and winds up in the arms of her own true love.
