Scope and content
ca. 1935. The Junior League Play Committee works on costumes in a member's home for a upcoming presentation in 1935. Two women are seen attaching "stripes" onto tiger costumes worn by Betye Martin (later Baker), right, and another woman. The Junior League will be presenting the childrens' play "Little Black Sambo" February 23-23 at the Little Theatre. Betye and her fellow actress will be portraying royal tigers in the play. The wife of former News Tribune publisher Elbert H. Baker, Betye Martin Baker was well known for her public generosity and community involvement. The United Way Betye Martin Baker Human Services Center in Tacoma was dedicated in 1995. (photo taken for T.N.T. and Seattle Times)
