Description
  • Three women dressed in swimsuits and identified as Miss Oregon Contestants pose next to an indoor swimming pool. The women are posed between the pool's metal handrails, with the first woman standing on the outside of the pool and the other two women standing on the steps of the ladder leading out the pool. They are all dressed in white one-piece swimsuits with straps with an attached sash. From left to right the women's sashes read Miss Portland, Miss Yamhill, and Miss Eugene. Miss Portland wears white clip earrings. In the background are windows, people, and metal beams that extend from the ceiling. The ceiling appears to be made from glass.
