A bracero lies on his bed and has a rest in a living quarter of a Californian camp.
Description
Original Caption: "Work is not always available. During such lulls the men must remain in camp and shift for themselves in trying to fill the time. With bottle caps and the side of a cardboard catton, these men try to improvise their own limited recreation." "Near Tracy, Calif. braceros spend evenings at game of checkers, using bottle tops. The men arise at 4 a.m. for breakfast and get into the fields at 6 a.m."
