Summary

Description
English: CHARMING HUNTER --Laura Bergt, a beautiful Eskimo girl, is demonstrating the art of harpooning. Straying considerably from her traditional Eskimo attire, Laura is wearing a bathing suit, a common Los Angeles attire, especially on the beaches, in the best manner of feminine pulchritude. Laura does not have any trouble in absorbing the best of the Western Culture, including refrigerators, fine rugs, hi-fi sets, color television and many other fine things. Laura also finds it easy to revert back to her parkas, malukatuk (blanket toss), in which she's and expert, Eskimo dances and other fine facets of her native culture. --DOLORES McCUTCHEON Photograph
