1973 UCLA vs Providence First Half Action

FILM FUNDRAISER: www.gofundme.c.... Please help us to continue transferring these rare 16mm film reels that cost us anywhere from $275 to $350 per reel depending on the size of the film reel. We use Yale Film and Video in Valencia, CA to transfer our footage. Ironically, Yale Video is that same company that shot this footage over 5-decades ago. With nearly 1000 16mm film reels in our collection from 1969 to 1973, it's imperative that we get as much financial help as possible to continue posting newly transferred content on the Tommy Hawkins KZbin channel.
Any amount donated would be greatly appreciated! We thank you in advance for your support!

Interesting hearing particular fans shout. It's like I'm at the game. And they love Ernie D'Gregorio's moves. Ernie D gained some new fans in L.A.

Great Footage - Thanks for getting this out there. any chance of getting the 2nd half ?

I'm not sure if I have it. All the film footage you see on the Hawkins channel was retrieved from the dumpster over 5-decades ago by Tommy Hawkins after NBC trashed them. Tommy saw historical value in the footage and got permission from NBC's GM that he could keep whatever he dug out the trash bin.. More than likely, the second half of this game is lost forever...

Ok , Thanks again , I remember this game and was looking for the score on the East coast the following day. I was disappointed that the score got out of hand , but was told it was close till late in the game .Barnes was not afraid of Walton , like so many other pretty good centers . Providence had weapons and Ernie D. was going to break any press thrown at him. I so wish this would have been the Title Game in '73. Memphis was not going to beat the Bruins . Any chance you have the UCLA vs Villanova Game in 1971 ? That was the Howard Porter vs Sidney Wicks matchup. I aaprciate thae work tha you did to get this out - Thanks again @@TommyHawkinsFilmCollection
