Black and white silent amateur films by Dave Tatsuno (1913-2006), a businessman in the San Francisco Bay area. Among Tatsuno's earliest films, taken in 1936-1937, these generally show family events, and meetings of the Young People's Christian Conference, in which Tatsuno was active.
This brief segment shows a track meet at San Francisco's Kezar Stadium in 1937; an unidentified man takes a photograph of the filmmaker; runners on the track; athletes; a pole vault; sprinters cross the finish line [dark]; a relay race (00:26).
