Notes Written on back: "THEY ARE HIGH-HAT. ONE MAY BE QUEEN--To reign over San Francisco's famous Chinatown, during the colorful Jade Festival is the ambition of Beatrice Wong, (Lai Ying), left and Dorothy Tom (Fay Hing), members of the colony. Their friends seem to feel the same, for the two are among the leaders in the contest to choose a queen for the big Chinese Hospital benefit.".
