Description

A Friday night high school football game between the Polytechnic Parrots and the Paschal Panthers is being held at Farrington Field in Fort Worth, Texas. Early in the first quarter, Poly back Kenneth Peacock is shown jerking loose from a pile-up of defenders. Peacock gained five on the play, bringing the ball to the Paschal thirty-five yard-line. Two referees are standing in the background, watching the action. Three players and two referees are in view on the field. Behind is a dimly lit score board. The players are in football uniforms and leather helmets, the referees are in light loose-fitting pants, long-sleeved shirts with a "Y" in black up the buttons and extending to each shoulder.
