HOMECOMING '62 Emory ended Washington and Lee's winning streak by a rousing score of 38-33 and took the Homecoming honors off the field. The crowd for the day was the largest ever for an Emory game at home and every play proved to add excite- ment to the tales which would grow and be retold for years about this game. The first touchdown was by Emory’s Earl Hawkins and he returned the kickoff. From then on the game was a hard battle. Halftime festivities provided relief and Miss Carolyn Foard was crowned Homecominq Queen. The last few seconds of the game were too much for the crowd and the countdown from 34 seconds to the end was an eternity. The excitement of the day was saddened by the death of Dean V. $. Armbrister at the end of the game. A victorious team joined with their fellow students in the sorrow of the day. but the memory of the greatest game ever played on Fullerton Field would live on forever.

WASPS RAMBLE DR. HUNTER WOLFE Dr. Hunter Wolfe is pictured to the left of this column. His devoted service to the Emory and Henry football team merits for him the deepest appreciation of not only the team and coaches, but the entire student body. Dr. Wolfe gradu- ated from Emory and Henry in 1922 and went to The Medical College of Virginia. For years he has followed the Wasps on all their varsity games, always present and ready for any emergency. He faithfully and untiringly gives of himself and his free time to help Emory and Henry's athletic program in any way that he can. You can count on Dr. Wolfe to be right on the bench with the team no matter how far from home they travel. His hunting cap and jacket are football trademarks wherever the Wasps play. I-HEY From behind the scenes interested alumni and friends provide much of the support for the Emory football team. Some contributions are small, others are large, but combined they provide for financing the football teams and players for which Emory is noted. I-HEY means I help each year.” and this is exactly what these men do when called upon. The unsung gifts that are given to provide money for football scholarships help to make the players that publicize the col- lege. The only tangible evidence of their contribution to I-HEY is a membership card and weekly football letter with interesting facts about the team. Each member of I-HEY experiences a certain pride and thrill whenever a player whom he has unknowingly helped scores and joyous student body sings the praises of an undefeated football season. There is a satisfaction in giving towards a job well done and this satisfaction is an I-HEY member's. Strong I-HEY support is appreciated but never is there an opportunity for the student body to say thank-you to the scores of members. The SPHINX takes this opportunity to express the gratitude of the team and the student body to I-HEY and Mr. C. C. Poindexter for his work with the organization.
