Police officers stand in rows across the width of the field at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. They are viewed from above. The rows shorten in length as they extend back towards the left side of the field. A dirt track wraps around the field. In the foreground, stadium seating spans the lower left corner as it slopes down towards the field. A few spectators occupy the seats. Empty stadium seating stretches across the background.
