Description
View 3 - Photo shows a group of men and women engaged in a beach game on Santa Monica Beach. At least sixteen young ladies sit on the sand at water's edge with one leg "tied" with white crepe paper, while three or four young men, possibly life guards, hold several "strands", as if reeling in their catch. Several people watch this lively game, most dressed in their bathing suits, but some wearing dress clothes.
