Description

A high school football game between the Polytechnic Parrots and the Arlington Heights Yellow Jackets (white jerseys) is being held at Farrington Field in Fort Worth, Texas. One of the city's best running backs is Yellow Jacket, Wilford Revercomb (33). He is shown driving on a sweep to the right for ten yards. Parrot defender Kenneth Andrews (77) is attempting to make a tackle on the shifty back. Revercomb was injured on the play and the Parrots went on to win the game 36-6. A referee races down through the middle of play.
