In honor of Emory's 175 Anniversary, a bit of history will be made with the return of the game of pushball -- one of the university's most legendary traditions -- during a special event for the entire Emory community Wednesday, Oct. 12.Pushball -- featuring a six-foot-wide ball -- was played by generations of Emory students from 1923 to 1955 before being retired due to the increasingly rough nature of the game. Wednesday's game will follow the rules from the 1940's found in the university archives, with a reduction of team members from 25 to 11. Each team will seek to push the ball across the other team's goal line. Doing so scores five points and the game is played in four six-minute quarters.
