043:32 SONGS OF THE SOUTHERN SEAS
“Brown-skinned maids recapture melodies of Hawaii and New Zealand as they sway to Haka’s quaint rhythm.”
Standing under palm trees a group of young Hawaiian? maidens play guitars and ukuleles and sway to music. Man plays steel guitar is in background.
044:14 Three perform the stick game to the accompaniment of the guitar and ukulele.
045:12 Two of the women attempt to perform the haka and one the pūkana.
Their costumes are from the islands.
