Brazilian gala to feature lore
A pair of human dice, a few clowns and a lot of saamba music are expected at Saturday night's Brazilian carnival Dance Opera House, 642 Massachusetts St.
The Brazil-Portugal Club hopes to recreate what Jon Vincent, chairman of the Spanish and Portuguese departures, said Brazil's largest national blowout.
Last year, about 600 people came to the carnival dressed as die, clowns, vegetables, Latin dancers and other things. Vincent said recently. A prize will be given for the best costume, he said.
Drinking and samba dancing are scheduled from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m. Vincent said samba music originated in Africa and was born in New York, pounded on percussion instruments.
"After you get used to samba, it's hard not to get up and dance when you hear it," he said.
THE CARNIVAL in Brazil, which is similar to, but much larger than New Orleans' Mardi Gras, according to Vincent, is held every year from the Friday before until the night of Easter. The carnival was historically a prelude to Lent.
Vincent said that Brazilians spent six months talking about the last carnival and six months preparing for the next one.
the carnival is held all over Brazil, but the largest celebration takes place in Rio de Janeiro. Vincent, a participant in the 1976 RIO carnival, estimates that more than million people in the streets of Rio at any given time during the festival.
"It's kind of dangerous in Brazil at carnival time," he said.
People with grudges against others have injured the people they were angry at, he said.
Mauro Nobre, president of the Brazil-Portugal Club, said, "The task of the Brazil-Portugal Club is to reproduce that same spark, that same atmosphere that is feeling imported straight from Brazil, with no tariffs or import duties."
"There's usually more hanky-panky than violence though," he said.
Tickets can be purchased for $4 at the SUA office and the department of Spanish and Portuguese, 3062 Wesco, or from members of the Brazil-Portugal Club. Tickets will be $5 at the door.

The Faschingsbail has a purpose similar to that of celebrations in Grecian culture.
The Karneval season in Germany begins Nov. 11, Keel said. It consists of parties, dances and meetings where people tell jokes and sing. The season ends before Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, with parades and parties in the streets of such cities as Cologne and Munich.

INNOCENT BY REASON OF SANITY BUT . . .
The eyes of the Florida Assistant State Attorney probably sparkled with the satisfaction born of a hard day's work as he surveyed the evidence before him: one deck of cards, poker chips and twenty-four dollars in cash seized earlier at a reinses' card game. The six defendants, the youngest of whom was sixty-three years old, were carefully watched for an hour by two undercover detectives as they unknowingly broke Florida's misdemeanor gambling law. After a two-day trial, during which two of the defendants were hospitalized, justice triumphed with each of the accused receiving thirty days probation and paying seventy-five dollars court costs.
The very legal mechanism which uncovered and responded to this premeditated miscreancy both supports and financially benefits from other types of legalized gambling such as occur at the dog track, horse track, and jai alai court. Only a jailed citizenry would tolerate such an expression of righteous indignation; only a corrupted state would enforce it.
