Description

At center, No. 50 of the St. Mary's Gaels catches a football during a game between UCLA and St. Mary's at the Coliseum. No. 50 runs with his back to camera and reaches up to his right to catch the football. Nearer to camera at left, a teammate, No. 75, runs towards the right. Another St. Mary's player stands farther down the field at right and faces towards camera. Behind and between No. 75 and 50, UCLA Bruin No. 14 runs away from camera. Spectators fill the stands in the background.
