Master 1480 - Tape 1 High angle panning LS kickoff of college football game; low bouncing kick & minor five yard receiving run. H/a TLS large crowd of well-behaved spectators (including several U.S. Navy sailors) celebrating calmly on field after game. MS unidentified football coach (white male wearing spectacles, gray fedora and suit) being hoisted into the air against his mild-mannered will by several young men after game in open-air stadium; the coach gets patted on the back by at least one bloke. Great rear-view TLS young white male cheerleaders wearing white sweaters leading successfully the audience (comprised of shiny-faced white college students) in a rousing cheer, at the end of which the audience waves small pompons in the air. (15-3) LS audience in spectator stands, a large contingent of which hold signs over their head that en masse form a picture of the state of Texas. Go Longhorns? Panning h/a LS collegiate football game play-- receiver runs for first down, tackled near boundary line. Rear view h/a LS game play: shotgun hike into quarterback run for small gain. Panning h/a LS quarterback passing deep, being intercepted. Now here's an extremely confusing situation: a game played by two teams of same colors! Panning h/a LS QB passing for a near-interception (I think) only to have the safety tip the ball into the hands of the intended receiver! Excellent ground level panning MS running play. Panning h/a LS pass reception (two teams w/ same colors again). Panning h/a LS 30 yard field goal. Nice 3/4 view MS spectators (well-dressed white men and women) watching football game in open-air stadium; two women stand enthralled, bespectacled man in FG with chin buried in his knuckles. H/a LS rowdy crowd gathered on field after game, tearing down goal posts. (15-1) Panning h/a LS quarterback passing to receiver who catches and runs along sideline, skirting tackles, eventually running over. (15-2)
