"KONGO"-QUEEN'S THEATRE

Throbbing of war drums, the Imuffled bent of countless black feet trampling the underbush of the African jungle, and 4 "white Įdevil" in a wheel-chair, emphasis- Jing his commands with a long bull- whip. That is "Kongo," a Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer melodrama featur- ing Waiter Huston, which is now showing at the Queen's Theatre; a gripping melodrama which takes place in the heart of Africa, where a. paralysed white man rules and plots his grisly vengeance on those he fancies have wronged him.

In the feminine roles opposite Huston

are Lupe Velez, and Virginia Bruce.

Conrad Nagel plays Dr. Kinga- land, the England fugitive who

has succumbed to the curse of the

Jungle and becomes a virtual slave to Flint for love of the white girl
