- Description:
- In this series of silent WRDW-TV newsfilm clips, there are shots of various basketball games. The first nineteen shots seem to be from one game, possibly with Butler University: a "Stomp Butler" banner is seen in several shots. The other team is not known. There are clips of game action, team members with a coach on the sidelines, and crowd shots. One shot shows the scoreboard count down to zero with a score of 51 to 51. Shots 21 through 24 are of some sort of beauty pageant. Young women in long dresses, each holding a large card with a letter, walk across the court. The final shot of this sequence shows them all on a stage. Clips 25 through 31 seem to be a women's basketball game. The rest of the clips seem to be another men's basketball game, or perhaps a junior varsity game. The final clip is of the scorekeepers.
Title supplied by cataloger.
This is a preliminary record. At this time only the date 1962 is known.
