Description
The December 1925 issue of the OAC Alumnus described this event as follows: "The push-ball contest, a novelty in the Northwest, was a riot of thrills and comedy. One minute the great ball was anchored to the ground, frescoed with rooks and sophs, the next minute it was in the air rolling on the finger tips of the mob, and scattering the spectators in quick stampedes. The push-ball contest will hereafter be an annual feature of Homecoming - one of the most spectacular stunts." In the background is the heating plant.
