Fleetfootf AI--A Right Guy In Right Place At Right Time By Marvin Green The game had been nip and tuck throughout. And as the big hand of the time clock moved nearer and nearer to marking the finale of the 1946 Orange Bowl classic, a 6-6 deadlock between the University of Miami and Holy Cross College seemed imminent. With time for one last attempt to cross the Miami goal line, Gene D<iFillipo fired a pass to Jim Dieckleman. And then something came about that electrified the crowd. Miami’s little Hurricane, A1 Hudson, leaped, deflected the ball into his arms and was off, as if the devil himself was chasing him, for an eighty-nine yard run and the Holy Cross goal. The Miami rooters went wild. Having a local boy make the decisive run which won the game for the home team seemed to be just what the doctor ordered. Greatest Thrill Though this interception was the greatest thrill A1 had ever received, many other happenings stand out in his memory—and with just cause. While attending Miami Edison High school, Hudson participated in four major sports: baseball, basketball, football, and track. In the latter he excelled, for as anchor man in the half mile relay, A1 helped establish . a new record of 1 min. 33.8 sec. At | I the Florida State track meet, he came in ahead of the field in more than one event. In recognition of A1 Hudson (Continued on Page Six) Methodist Club Leads Drive The Methodist club will sponsor a drive for clothing from now until the end of the month on behalf of the United National Clothing Col lection, Inc., Elaine Cato, chairman of the drive, has announced. Headed by Henry J. Kaiser, noted manufacturer, the organization has as its goal the collection of 100,000,-000 garments of clothing for distribution among the' people of war-*] tom countries of the world. Elaine announced that a container for the donated garments has been placed in the office of Mary Dean Fowler, social director. Students are requested to bring many items of wearing apparel as they can for the relief of people made homeless by the war. Wearable clothes of all kinds are needed, as well as shoes, overcoats, and caps. Bedding, blankets, piece goods, and retenants are also solicited. The national committee suggests that a letter accompany each garment from the giver to the potential wearer. In this manner, the people of the United States may be brought into more friendly relations with the people of countries throughout the world. 35 Seniors Graduate January 31 Thirty-five University seniors will receive their degrees at the close of the present term on Thursday.
