I believe she set up and had the girl walk by.. but the guys on the 
street were not in on it entirely...
Too bad it was even set up to that extent .

BTW - If any of you ever see a photo of Orkin's of a guy in swimming 
trunks  leaping into the
air to grab a frisbee - shot in Central Park about um 30 years ago, (in 
a book?on line?)
let me know.
