Description

The camera looks across the Coliseum's field during the USC and Notre Dame football game. A referee enters frame in the foreground at left. He appears to run towards the right. Near the far side of the field, a play occurs at center. A few players are on the ground and a few more run towards them. A couple more players are to the left of the immediate play. Three referees appear to rush towards the melee. Crowds fill the stadium's stands, which stretch across the background.
