The camera looks across the field at Whittier College during the football between the Poets and the Occidental Tigers. In the near distance, off-center to the left, an Oxy player runs with the ball towards the end zone at left. Ahead of him, a Whittier defender tries to stop him. The remaining on-field players watch the immediate play from a distance. Campus buildings rise in the background at left and fans fill the stands at right.
