neck wreaths of frangipani

Action
"Camera is set up near pool, so we see reflections
of a group of lovely girls and the girls themselves
making their toilets in great haste. They are bent

Camera shoots across pond to group of 7 girls

camera r. to l.) The girls make haste, get
headdresses on and run out camera left.
