Freddy Eynsford-Hill, wealthy, handsome, and sincere, acci dently bumps into Eliza D(X>little, the beautiful but diry flower girl, and sends her sprawling with her flowers. Her loud protests at this introduce us to the cockney dialect that Professor Henry Hig gins, the dedicated phonetician, finds so intriguing. Higgins de clares to his friend, Colonel Pickering, that he can make a lady of this gutter-snipe with in six months. Eliza is taken in to Higgins’ home and thereafter much drilling with vowel sounds md instruction as to how a lady should act, Eliza is ready for her first test in society at the As cot Races. Young Freddy Hill sees her there and immediately falls in love with her. Eliza’s big test, however, comes at the Embassy Ball, an affair glitter ing with royalty and high socie ty. Stunningly dressed, Eliza cap tures the eyes as well as the hearts of everyone there. To Higgins, Eliza is nothing more than a guinea pig, and he completely forgets that she is a human being.
