The Stanford football team runs through drills at Brookside Park prior to the 1935 Rose Bowl game. At center, Bobby Grayson throws the football. It sails through the air at left. His teammates wear sweats as they stand on the field behind him at right. The far side of the practice field is lined by hedges. Spectators stand in front of the hedges at right and some peek over the hedges at left.
A similar photograph is captioned, "Proving that Stanford's football team isn't taking its Rose Bowl game tussle with Alabama in a light mood, the Indians worked out twice yesterday. Here's a shot of the drill showing the boys galloping down the field under a punt. Alabama took a morning workout yesterday. [Times photo by Fred Coffey]," Los Angeles Times, 29 Dec. 1934: 8
