Written on back: "Set to catch a pass is Wes Russell, and set to make a driving tackle on him is Al Belcher in a 'coffin corner' demonstration. Scene two of this grid iron drama at Balboa's High School's perilous pigskin practice field, and last year's scene of early AAA prep football tilts, would find the players sprawled on the hard dirt. From the sideline corner of the goal line the track is only one and one-half feet frothed field." .
