description

The 1965 Wake Forest Homecoming Football Program is an official souvenir booklet for the October 9, 1965, football game between Wake Forest College and the University of Maryland, held at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Priced at fifty cents, the program blends school history with profiles of student-athletes, detailed team rosters, photographs, and promotional advertisements from regional businesses. It features messages from university officials, including President Harold W. Tribble, and offers an overview of Wake Forest's relocation from Wake County to Winston-Salem, emphasizing the college's growth and evolving identity. The program celebrates Head Coach Bill Tate's achievements during the 1964 season and highlights key players such as Brian Piccolo and John Mackovic. It also outlines the academic-athletic scholarship program, lists coaching and support staff, and includes the full starting lineups for both teams. Alongside game rules and official referee signals, the booklet is illustrated with campus images, athlete portraits, and period advertisements.
