We used the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope during the March 1995 Astro-2 mission to obtain a deep far-UV image of the globular cluster NGC 362 , which was formerly thought to have an almost entirely red horizontal branch ( HB ) .
84 hot ( { { T } _ { eff } } > 8500 K ) stars were detected within a radius of 8 \farcm 25 of the cluster center .
Of these , 43 have FUV magnitudes consistent with HB stars in NGC 362 and at least 34 are cluster members .
The number of cluster members is made uncertain by background contamination from blue stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud ( SMC ) .
There are six candidate supra-HB stars which have probably evolved from the HB .
We discuss the implications of these results for the production of hot blue stars in stellar populations .
