This Freddy Falcon did his last hi-jinks for Bowling Green. The flapping, hoppingbird graduated as Charles Schultz with the Class of '63. A Band, A Bird, A Victorious Team -This Was Homecoming The sun shone ffiguratively, at leastj in spite of on- again, off-again rain as students, alumni, and faculty watched the Falcons tally the fourth successive win against Kent State University, during the 1962 Homecoming week- end. The victory also marked the fourth winning of the semicentennial trophy, presented in 1959 by the Golden K organization of Kent in commemoration of both schools' anniversaries. The trophy is awarded each year to the winner of the Kent-Bowling Green contest, and the team compiling the most wins at the time of the centennial re- ceives permanent possession of the trophy. judging from li the scores of the past four years, the Golden Flashes might as well prepare their presentation speech for the year 2010! Encouraged by the cessation of showers, 12,262 moist but enthusiastic spectators recalled Auld Lang Syne a few months early, as the Marching Band performed Forty Years of Broadway music during the half-time. Perhaps this was the reason so many fans ignored the beckoning comforts of the Union and its offers of hot coffee to re- main in their seats. But whatever the reason, the onlookers looked on 'til the Old Alphal' victory bell tolled of another triumph. Gamma Phi Beta placed first in the display contest with its theme, Falcons get your gun-put the Flashes on the run.
