View of the NFL game between AFL East Boston Patriots and Buffalo Bills at a stadium in Boston Massachusetts. Thousands of spectators gathered in the stadium. Jim Nance's 65-yard touchdown and Babe Parilli's 3-yard keeper helped the Patriots to beat the Bills by 14 to 3.
Film begins as Texas takes the field, wearing red warm-up jackets. Stadium appears filled to capacity. Numerous plays in the game are seen throughout the film. A banner draped over a front row railing, in the grandstand, cites 100th anniversary of the NCAA and reads:"Welcome President Nixon." Several police officers are seen in that vicinity. Scoreboard shows Arkansas ahead 14 to nothing (after third quarter). Numerous shots of the crowd in the stands, but none showing the President or his party. As the game nears the end, some spectators appear to be covering up because of a light rain. (Note: In the 4th quarter, Texas rallied to win the game 15 to 14.)
