ROBERTS, Ph.D. Dean Professor of Social Science ADMINISTRATION KATIE DOWNS, M.A. Registrar Professor of Education Imitation is the result of real admiration. . . At West Georgia College is a group of people worthy of our ad- miration. We see them in the halls, chat with them in the store, eat with them in the dining hall, and visit them in their homes, not to mention listening to them in class. We, unconsciously, find ourselves imitating their actions. These people we have come to know, respect, and genuinely like and admire because they have been teachers of individuals rather than teachers of just subject matter. With their sympathetic understand- ing and wise counsel, they have guided us through this year. It is with great respect and pleasure that we present THE FACUL- TY of West Georgia College. ....

"The Braves" iiMi W^.-mttk 'Our Braves" Greenwood, Sarrett, Adams. BREVARD (0) WEST GEORGIA (0) The Braves started off the season in Griffin against a powerful Brevard Jumor College team from Brevard, North Carolina. WGC played a hard-fought game and was especially ^P^^khng n its masterfuldefensive play. Usmg the two-platoon system, the Tribe's defensive team kept the Blue Tornadoes from scoring. GORDON MILITARY COLLEGE (12) WEST GEORGIA (0) The West Georgia offense had improved a good bit in this game, but a number of fumbles id an intercepted pass gave the Bulldogs a decided edge. GEORGIA MILITARY COLLEGE (60) WEST GEORGIA (6) It was practically a lost cause m this game with CMC. The Cadets, already sited as a pos- sible candidate for a Bowl, scored practically at will. The Braves hopes were boosted somewhat, however when Bill Cole, VgC halfback, crossed the double stripes for the Tribe's first score of the year. MIDDLE GEORGIA (7) Here the Braves finally got in the win colum year really began to click. J. W. Greenwood s caught a short pass from WGC quarterback, G dirt 5 5 yards away. The point after touchdow third quarter to score off a pass from the WGC the waning minutes of the final stanza the pass for the Braves when he shot out a forward to B Billy Hayes kicked the pigskin through the upr Braves. WEST GEORGIA (13) n. West Georgia for the first time during the cored the first tally for the Braves when he rover C. "Hot Shot" Adams and raced to pay n was in vain. Middle Georgia came back in the 10. The conversion put them ahead 7-6. In ing arm of "Hot Shot" Adams again spelled a TD ilfReed, end, from the MGC 20 yard marker, ights to put the score at 13-7 in favor of the CHIPOLA (40) WEST GEORGIA (7) A multitude of long runs piled up to give the Braves a thorough stampmg at the hands of the Chipola Junior College team from Marianna, Florida. The West Georgia score came off a pass to Burnell Payne, the WGC end. Hayes' extra point was good. MARION INSTITUTE (19) WEST GEORGIA (7) This game was full of bad breaks for the Braves. Trailing 7-0 in the second quarter the Braves made a 78 yard sustained drive down to the Marion four yard stripe and were unable to cross the goal line. In the third quarter when the Cadets made two TDs, the scoreboard read 19-0. In the final quarter James Massey, Brave halfback, plunged over from the 2 yard line to give the Tribe its only score and Hayes' extra point was good. 81 HMMiiidiiH Better beware! ! Good for an extra point HIWASSEE (44) WEST GEORGIA (12) The Tigers from Madisonville, Tennessee, wasted no time in out playing and outscoring the Braves in this game. The two West Georgia touchdowns came off a run by fullback Bill Cole for 5 2 yards and a pass from Bill Allison, quarterback, to J. W. Greenwood which was good for 49 yards and a TD. ST. BERNARD (20) WEST GEORGIA ( 1 3 ) The Braves trailed 20-0 at the half but got on the scoring train and pushed across 13 points in the last two quarters. The touchdowns came off an intercepted lateral by Kenneth Minor, and a pass by Burnell Payne to J. W. Greenwood who raced 2 1 yards for the score. SOUTH GEORGIA (45) WEST GEORGIA (0) In this final game of the season, the South Georgia team rolled up 45 points rather easily and also a great margin in the statistics. The Braves were completely unable to hold the boys from Douglas. One win, seven losses and one tie these scores do not sound very impressive but they were backed up by a high-spirited team who never gave up and kept fighting to the very end. 82 Coach Welch revie'ws the plays. MORALE-BOOSTERS CHEER TEAM Led by their spirited captain, Freddie Boswell, the vigorous voices of our peppy cheerleaders never failed to boost us over the rough spots.
