Others are continuing their education in some of the great universities throughout the world, several of them holding teaching fellowships and working for the doctorate. As far as has been possible to ascertain, all of them are reflecting credit upon the International House Program, Jacksonville State College, and their respective countries.

Before coming to Jacksonville, he had attended the University of Alabama. While at Alabama he played fullback under Frank Thomas. He was outstanding in Alabama's 1942 and 1943 bowl contests. After graduation, he served in the armed forces with the 79th Infantry. He was discharged in 1944 with the rank of captain. The next year he received his M.A. in physical education at Alabama. Last year he took his doctorate in physical education at New York University. Coach Ray Dirty Wedgeworth is serving his seventh year as line coach at Jacksonville. Since coming to Jacksonville, Wedgeworth has produced some of the best line defenses in the nation among small colleges. Wedgeworth was born in Guntersville, Alabama in 1908. He prepped at Marshall County High School and Southern Military Academy at Greensboro, Alabama. In 1932, he joined Coach Jenks Gillam at Birmingham Southern where he was selected on the All-Dixie Conference and Little All-American team. Before coming to Jacksonville, he coached at Dadeville High, Jackson County High, and Gadsden High. NEWBERN BUSH Athletic Director RAY WEDGEWORTH Line Coach Coach Tom Roberson first came to the Game-cocks in 1948, but made the return trip in 1953 after having spent two years at Florida State as assistant coach. Roberson first played football at Sylacauga High School and then played freshman football and basketball at the University of Alabama. After his freshman year he transferred to the University of Chattanooga for one year of football in 1943. He entered the Air Force where he served for 37 months. During his tour of duty he played two years of service football. Jacksonville's 1955 football team was one of the best the school has ever produced. For the first six games the Gamecocks were not scored against. In their seventh game South Georgia scored twelve points against them. Their only defeat came at the hands of a speedy Florence eleven. The big guns in the backfield were Al Woodham, Billy Hicks, and Phillip Smith. The line was great from one end to the other. At the end of the season came the news that Jacksonville had been offered a bid to go to the Refrigerator Bowl in Evansville, Ind. Coach Miller played varsity basketball at Jacksonville and then served as assistant basketball coach during the 1955-56 season. Billy Hicks Johnny Johnson Bill Roddam JACKSONVILLE vs. CHATTANOOGA In the season's opener the Gamecocks thrilled their fans by winning over a powerful Chattanooga eleven by the score of 12-0. Talk of a post season bowl game began to circulate. Displaying speed and power in the backfield and a good solid wall of defense, the Gamecocks capitalized on an intercepted pass and a penalty to score twice in the second period. Johnson, playing at center, intercepted the pass and returned 51 yards to set up the first touchdown. From the four, Fullback Billy Hicks crashed over for the first score. With 20 seconds remaining in the first half, Chattanooga tried a pass on fourth down from their own 18 and failed to connect. They were penalized to their own three and from there George Keech sneaked across their goal line for the second Jacksonville score. JACKSONVILLE 12 CHATTANOOGA 0 Wocdham pick up yardage ■H JACKSONVILLE vs. MARYVILLE After a fine show against Chattanooga, the Gamecocks failed to show the home folks very much in the way of offensive power, The Jaxmen started their scoring drive in the closing minutes of the third quarter when Al Woodham brought up a Maryville punt to his own 41, Charlie Grisham added one first down and Philip Rabbit” Smith another as the third period ended. In the fourth period Smith added another first down and finally went wide to score from the one yard line. Gene Hanson added the point after touchdown. End Ray Burgess played an outstanding game on the defense. The punting of Billy Hicks kept the Maryville team from any serious threats. Smith was high man on rushing yardage with Hicks second. Ray Burgess George Keech Gerald Grogan JACKSONVILLE 7 MARYVILLE 0 JACKSONVILLE vs. CARSON-NEWMAN After floundering about for nearly a quarter, Jacksonville suddenly caught fire and proceeded to administer a 39-0 drubbing to the Eagles. This was the third straight victory for the Gamecocks and as yet they had not been scored on. The first score came late in the first period when halfback Rabbit Smith picked off an Eagle pass and advanced it to his own 31. Smith, his running mate, A| Woodham and fullback Chester Skates teamed up to place the ball on the visitors 10. Smith went over from there and Joe Roberts missed the point. The Gamecocks scored again in the next quarter when George Keech returned a punt to his own 33. Four plays later Woodham was through the Eagle secondary and over on a 34 yard jaunt. This time Roberts' kick was good. With time running out in the second period, Smith broke over guard and went down to the Carson-Newman three. Billy Hicks added two and Smith went over for the score, Other touchdowns were made by Hicks from the three, and after reserve backs Charlie Grisham, George White, and Hulon Davis had brought the ball to the 49, Carl Harrison closed the distance on a keeper and added the final score. Again the line ulay of Bull Bailey, Joe Roberts, Alex Mandli, Bill Clark, and Jerry Cole was outstanding as the Eagles were not allowed to score. JACKSONVILLE 39 CARSON-NEWMAN 0 Alex Mandli Jimmy Luttrell Jerome Harmon Grisham pick up precious yardage through center Chester Skates Jerry Cole Joe Roberts JACKSONVILLE vs. LIVINGSTON Jacksonville moved into Livingston on the enemies' homecoming day and spoiled it by chalking up a 13-0 victory. This was the fourth win for the Gamecocks against no losses and no ties. And again the opponents were unable to score against the stubborn Jax defense. The teams battled on even terms in the first half as Jacksonville failed to cross the goal. In the second half George Keech passed to Bill Clark for 53 yards and a touchdown with about half of the third period gone. Gene Hanson kicked the extra point. Near the end of the third quarter, the Jaxmen started a drive on their own 25. Three straight first downs were made and Al Woodham scored from eight yards out on the first play of the last period. Hanson missed the extra point. JACKSONVILLE 13 LIVINGSTON 0 JACKSONVILLE TROY Bill Clark Dean Akin Hulon Davis Jacksonville rolled to its fifth straight win against no defeats as the Gamecocks pounded out a 12-0 victory against the Red Wave before a large Troy homecoming crowd. Jacksonville marched 60 yards for both its touchdowns in the last quarter. Halfback Al Woodham ripped off tackle and ran 25 yards for the last score with less than a minute to go. The first touchdown was made by Rabbit Smith on a 3 yard dash at center. While Troy never seriously threatened, the Jacksonville team was plagued several times deep in enemy territory by fumbles. Billy Hicks was the leading ground gainer. Jacksonville's defense played its usual outstanding ball. JACKSONVILLE 12 TROY 0 Woodham blocks. Smith lugs. f. ' 7 Hicks goes 11 yards for T.D. Venoy Jolley Joe Currie Don Standridge JACKSONVILLE v AUSTIN PEAY Jacksonville still reigned as the nation's only undefeated, untied and unscored on college football team after a thrilling 20-0 victory over Austin Peay. Woodham returned the starting kick-off eight yards to the 23 and Hicks and Smith carried the ball to the one. From there, Billy Hicks plunged over the goal for paydirt, George White kicked the extra point and Jacksonville led 7-0. After Harrison returned a punt two yards to the Austin Peay 46, the Gamecocks drove for their second touchdown. Hicks smacked over left guard for 11 and a first down to the 35. White hit left tackle for seven yards to the 29, and Keech made it a first down on a keep play that was good for six yards to the 23, White made 3 more at right tackle, but a Keech pass intended for Clark was incomplete; on the next play Keech's pass for Dean Akin was broken up. Keech's pass intended for Sam Black was broken up, but a 15 yard holding penalty against the Governors put Jacksonville in business at the one. Keech slipped over from there, but White's kick was wide. In the third period Hicks intercepted a pass and carried the ball to the 28, Several plays later Smith scored from the two and this time White's kick was good. JACKSONVILLE 20 AUSTIN PEAYO JACKSONVILLE vs. SOUTH GEORGIA After six straight victories without being scored on, the Gamecocks were scored on by South Georgia, This game was Jacksonville's all the way; although, not an easy one. The Jaxmen drew first blood as George Keech intercepted a pass on the third play of the game and advanced to the South Georgia 45. After the Gamecocks had picked up three first downs, Chester Skates went up the middle for 11 yards and the score. White converted. Later in the first quarter, the Gamecocks started a drive on their own 34. Four plays later Philip Smith slanted off tackle to score from the 13. Hulon Davis' attempt was blocked.

White's attempt was blocked. Seconds before the quarter ended. Car! Harrison scooted 53 yards for another Jax tally; Hicks ran the point. Taking the second half kick-off, the Jaxmen drove straight down to pay dirt. Quarterback Fred Casey sneaked across from the one. White added the point. Later in the third quarter. White added the final three points by kicking a field goal from the 25 yard line. South Georgia scored one more in the last quarter. JACKSONVILLE 36 SOUTH GEORGIA 12 Roy Bailey Combat fatigue. Sam Black Smith heads for Carey’s end zone. JACKSONVILLE vs. WILLIAM CAREY Two undefeated football teams met and Jacksonville came out the victor. In an offense that relied almost solely on the strong running legs of backs Billy Hicks, A! Woodham, and Rabbit Smith, Jacksonville rolled and crashed for a total of 833 yards on the ground. The Gamecocks tried only one pass during the entire game. Jacksonville's first score came after Hicks, Smith, Grisham, and Woodham had hammered and sliced at the Carey line to carry the ball to the Crusaders' two and then Casey carried the ball over on a keep. White's kick was good and the Jaxmen led 7-0. Hicks carried the ball again to the Crusaders' two yard line and Casey scored again on a sneak play. White's kick was good. The third touchdown of the afternoon was scored on a 51 yard dash by Rabbit Smith after he had crashed through the Carey line and ran off and left the entire Carey team. Jacksonville's line played sparkling ball on both defense and offense. JACKSONVILLE 21 WILLIAM CAREY 0 JACKSONVILLE vs. FLORENCE Charlie Grisham Gene Hanson Ermon Ogburn Jacksonville's chance for the Alabama State championship was lost after a defeat by the mighty Lions from Florence. This was Jacksonville's first defeat of the season and only the second time in the season the Gamecocks had been scored against. The Gamecocks played fine ball, but the Lions made the most of all their breaks. Their first break came early in the game when Jacksonville lost a fumble. Bostick scored from the Jacksonville two yard line for the game's first tally. Jacksonville, not to be outdone, took the kick-off and with the running of Rabbit Smith, Al Woodham, and Billy Hicks soon crossed the Florence goal. White converted and the score stood for the first half at 7-7, The third quarter was mostly played in the midfield zones. Early in the fourth period Sanderson skirted the Gamecock end and went 72 yards for the second Florence score. Taylor's kick was good. The Jaxmen seemed to be moving and did move to the Florence 28 before losing the ball on downs. Later in the period one of Freddy Casey's passes was intercepted by Sanderson on the Jacksonville 26 and was returned for a touchdown. Once again the point was good.

JACKSONVILLE 67 HOWARD 24 THE REFRIGERATOR BOWL JACKSONVILLE J 2 RHODE ISLAND 10 At game time the Gamecocks were 19 point underdogs, but they were determined to win. The first half of the game was very closely fought with both teams getting near the goal line only to fumble and lose the ball. On fourth down with 14 seconds remaining in the first half Rhode Island kicked a field goal. The Gamecocks grabbed the second half kick-off and marched 70 yards for a score. Billy Hicks carried eleven of fourteen times. Score 6-3. Rhode Island took the kick-off and was forced to punt, the kick went out of bounds on the Jax 6-yard line. Jacksonville fumbled and Rhode Island failed to move the ball for three downs and then passed for the score. Conversion was good. After a series of fumbles, Jacksonville got the ball on the Ram six yard line and Fullback Chester Skates carried it over to make the score Jax 12, Rhode Island 10. With a minute and a half left to play, Rhode Island had the ball on the Gamecock 10-yard line; first and goal to go. On the first play, Alex Mandli recovered a Ram fumble and the Gamecocks ran out the clock for a hard earned victory.
