Summary
NoS Summary - Women pack oranges in warehouse - probably a speed packing competition.
NoS synopsis: "Not the kind that hang about Vesuvius, but the fastest "craters" (or packers) in California." High angle panning shot of several women packing oranges. They are in some kind of hall and are wearing funny Christmas style hats. Perhaps this is a competition to see who can pack the fastest. "Handwork at a dizzy pace - no fumblers need apply." C/U of one of the girls wrapping the oranges in paper. "The fastest of the family -" One of the girls is awarded a shiny silver cup.
