Coaches and players are sitting on a bench on the sidelines during the game. Sitting third from the left is Coach H. N. "Rusty" Russell. He is dressed in a hat, double breasted suit and a coat.

On the left is a man in a light shirt, dark diagonal tie, three piece suit, a light colored fedora hat, wearing eyeglasses, a tie pin, a wrist watch, and a ring on his left hand. He has on dark socks and dark oxford shoes and what looks like a cotton overcoat.

To the right of Coach Russell is a much younger man in a dark fedora, a dark check wood overcoat, a light shirt and a striped tie.
