| Description: | Sports Day at Norwich. Opens with silly contests: first a race for young girls in which teams of 2 run; leap over each other's back; run more; then another leapfrog bit. Then guys pushing other guys in wheelbarrows; and the one pushed knocks over bucket with a spear. Ha ha. Then a young man runner on the track in a long distance race. Finally close up of the winner of the race; posing with other people standing around him; and a soldier holding up a card next to him. Flags of various countries fly above in Bg so maybe this event included soldiers from these places. | |
