In the near distance at center, the S.C. Trojans 4 x 440 yard relay team anchor, John McCarthy, crosses the finish line. He strides through the tape facing right and carries the relay baton in his right hand. In the foreground, two meet officials stand along the left edge with their backs to the camera and another stands in partial view at right. The track stretches across the image ahead of them. Behind and to the left of McCarthy, several officials stand in a cluster at the finish line. Another official stands on a riser behind and to the left of them. The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum stands stretch across the background.

The high hurdles race at the S.C. and Stanford dual track meet is seen from a bird's-eye view at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The track, off-center to the left, sits below camera-level and stretches straight back. The hurdlers are captured mid-leap as they cross the first set of hurdles near the bottom edge. From left to right, the runners are: Clarence Berry (S.C.), Bob Lyon (S.C.), Sam Klopstock (Stanford) and Gene Culp (S.C.). Klopstock appears in the lead, but knocks over his hurdle. Along the inside edge of the track at left, meet officials line the straight-away. Other meet officials and participants mill about the field. In the distance at right, spectators fill a few sections of the stands near the race's finish line. Empty stadium seats stretch across the background at center and left.

The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum track stretches across the foreground. Just beyond it, U.S.C. Trojan, Curtis McFadden, appears to hover in mid-air at center as he broad jumps. He is viewed from the side and faces right. His legs extend straight in front of him as he leans his chest towards his legs. His arms fly back behind him. On the far side of the landing pit, several meet officials stand in a row alongside the pit and face towards camera. A marker behind and to the left of McFadden reads, "23 6." The stadium's seats stretch across the background.

At center, a Stanford vaulter is captured mid-air as he descends from his vault attempt and lands in the vaulting pit. He appears to right himself in the air with outstretched arms. The pit extends in front of him to the right. In the foreground at left, a meet official stands with his back to camera and looks up towards the vaulting bar. The bar sits high above and to the left of the vaulter at center. Beyond the vaulting event area, the field and stands at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum stretch across the background.
