FRANK GILLESPIE, voted the 's most out­ standing athlete for 194 7 -48, foot­

, ball star, baseball perfectionist, l:)asketball champion, and a whiz at his school books, this stellar athlete is well on the road toward making hi,story in the books of All-Time Greats from the South. Hailing from Beckley, W. Va. where he started his Athletic ca­ reer at the Mark Twain Hjgh School, Gillespie came South to Clemson to enter into a series of sports that has labeled him as an athlete to be long remembered. After one year at Clemson. the war interrupted his career and he saw 16 months of overseas duty with the Signal Corps, which brought him three battle stars. While in s,ervice, he was the star guard on the 90th Division football team. Frank returned to Clemson his sophomore year in time for the 1946 grid campaign, and .earned All-State honor.s and was mentioned on several All-Southern selections. Last season saw Gillespie once again excell as Clem­ son's finest guard. In baseball, he has been named for two con.~ ecutive years to All-Southern honors. He is now playing his final season for his Alma Mater.

( BOBBY GAGE, a youthful lad from Anderson, S. C., i..s now in his fourth year with the Tigers. He entered Clemson in 1945 as a 17-year old ROTC cadet. As a "rat'', he poured on a I'un11ine; ' . l and pas,sing spree on the grid­ iron that convinced Clemson coaches that here was a lad to study, to train, to teach, to help, so that he, in future years, could be the propelling force to carry Clemson to victory. Last year saw a con­ siderable degree of results of the work put on Bobby Gage. He finished the season as one of the nation·s highest offensive gainers. The greatest one-day pass­ jng and rushing output in the nation was registered by this great athlete, who totaled 374 yards in his team'.s final game of th,e season against Aubur11. He carried the ball 18 times for 141 yards and passed for 233 more yards in his 43 plays. One of the gamest of the athletes ever to come out of Clemson, few persons today that thrill t? tl1 e gridiron exploits and the inspiring leadership of t~is slender backfield figure, who alternately runs 'A11th the ball, shoots passe.3 with precision, and pt1tr; _th~ opposing team on its heels, by his superb k1c:lc11 1g, realize that Bobby Gage hovered near deatl1 1n an Anderson hospital with a football acquired internal nasal injury in 1946.

The line will average perhaps 10 pounds heavier. That feature was one of the weak points last season. It will now average aproximately 205. We feel as though we are strong at tailback, and fairly weak at wingback

We lost few players through graduation. The '47 Captain, Cary Cox, and Co-Captain, John Moorer, center anci blocking back regulars, respectively, botl1 vacated thei1 spots. They have been ably filled by Gene Moore and '48 Co-captain Bob Martin. Tail­ back Hal Leo11ard and guard Bill Hunter were two other~ often mentioned Tigers who no longer will wear the pigskin uniform at Cl2mson. Relief ma11 Jim Sultis has entered the busin2ss field, now work­ ing in Yankee land.

Our two best fullbacks were not with us last year and this is perhaps where .some of the ''better' comes in. Dick Hendley was ineligible and Fred Cone was an i11experienced freshman with no high school foot­ ball background. Cone was the star of the final spring practice drill and should prove to be of im­ mense value.

Another strong position is that of blocking back. Bob Martin, co-captain, will get excellent relief from Frank Carothers, who was ineligible last year, Cecil Perrette, who played fullback, and Wyndie Wyndham, who is potentially one of our best players. The cent­ er position is not too good if Gene Moore or Jack Brunson decide not to play or for some rea,son can­ not play.

We will continue to use the single wing, with Howard modifications.

Our most outstanding players and ones which will come in for national and sectional publicity because of their outstanding ability include tailback Robert Gage, tailback Carol Cox, tailback Ray Mathews, full­ back Dick Hendley, fullback Fred Cone, end Robert Hudson, end Henry Walker, guard Frank Gillespie, and center Gene Moore. Players who were only freshmen last year, but who probably will be out­ standing players this year include tailback Ray Mathews, blocking back Frank Carothers, blocking back Cecil Perrette, blocking back Wyndie Wynd­ ham. end Doug Herlong, and center Jack Brunson.

UNIVER 'ITY OF :--. OUTII CAROLINA, Columbia, S. C.-!11 a JJre-seaso11 predictio11, Caro1i11a Cl1ief Mentor·, Rex E11right, sees Clemson as his tean1's tougl1est foe. Also i11cluc!ed on their schedule are tilts with Maryland, Wake Forest, West Virgir1ia a11d Tulane. They will be strengthened over the '47 ag- gregation in the backfield and at certain spots 1n• the line, .so says Enright. Thirty-one lettermen w ill form the backbo11e of the Gamecock eleven with s uch outstanding backs as So1Jhomore Bishop Stricklar1d, Co- capt ai11 Jack: Crouch, and 1947 Jacobs B locking T rophy Win11cr, end Red Harriso11 on hand. Assis ting this year a1e Hank Bartos, Frank Johnson, Ted Pe­ toskey, Al Grygo, and Earl Dunham. This an11Ltal State Fair classic, of which South Carolina has bee11 winner for the past two years, is a l ways consicler ccl the game of the year in this Palmetto State.

WAKE FOREST COLLEGE, Wake Forest, N. C.­ Wake Forest's 1948 football team stacks up stro11ger (6) .. ------!'

on offense but weaker on defense that its predecessor, the 1947 club, so says their publicity office. After guiding the Demon Deacons for 11 years under the single wing offense, Coach Douglas C. (Peahead) Walker is discarding this system in favor of the highly colorful T-formation. The switch was necessitated due to losses of key men in the single wing set-up. Twenty-two returning lettermen, at least two or more for every position except center, provide the nucleus for the 1948 team which the Tigers meet on Nov. 13 in Winston-Salem. Wake Forest, a 2,000 enrollment Baptist Denomin­ ational institution, is located a few miles from Ra­ leigh.

MISSISSIPPI STATE, State College, Miss.-Located in the rolling hills of Northeast Mississippi's prairie region, just a few l1ours drive from the most distant point in the state, is Mississippi State College, larg­ est institution of higher learning in the Magnolia State. Clemson meets this colorful team for the first time on Oct. 9. The college is located approximately two miles from Starkville, a thriving town of 8,000 population. The 1947 enrollment at Mississippi State exceeded 3,500 and the 1948 enrollment will be nearly 4,000. The 1948 edition of the Mississippi State Maroons will be built around 25 returning lettermen from the 1947 team that won seven out of ten games and will feature a backfield sparked by Shorty McWilliams and Harper Davis, two of the South's best backs. Maroon mentor, Allyn McKeen, declares his 1948 team has shown more spirit than any team he has eve1 coached at State and if the sophomores on the squad come through the team will be hard to beat. McKeen's record since coming to State in 1939 is 61 wins, 2 ties, and 15 defeats.

ALABAMA POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE, Auburn, Ala.-The Auburn Tigers have a brand new coaching staff headed by Earl M. Brown, the Notre Dame All­ American of 1938. Publicity r,eleases indicate that Brown's material may not quite measure up to what Carl Voyles had last year. Ends Johnny Liptak and Ray Williams have signed pro-baseball contracts. Tackle Harold Lanman, the '47 captain, i,.s graduating and fullbacks Leon Cochran and Willis Anclersc>11 and Guard Jack Cahoon decided to give up .football after the '47 season. Travis Tidwell is still arou11d, but cannot be counted in on plan,s as he hasn't fu]})r re­ covered from a leg break last year. Brown's system invol ves deep single wing running from an unbal­ anced line, with an occasional usage of the "T''. Ala­ bama will open Auburn's ten game schedule.

FURMAN UNIVERSITY, Greenville, S. C.-The Pur­ ple Hurricane will field their second post war team, this one under a new chief mentor, Herman E. (Red) Smith, a Furman graduate of 1926. A staff of George Cafego, William Young, J. Lyles Alley and James R. McQueen round out a group of men who hope to

(7) ---

put FU back in the big time. The grid system to be used will be different-a modified single-wing at­ tack replaces the ''T''. The Hurricane won two out of nine meetings last season and despite the record made againt such stiff opposition, they will step out front with tilts, with among others. Washington and Lee, Sou th Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.

N. C. STATE COLLEGE, Raleigh, N. C.-Clemson will tackle N. C. State College as its second night football game of the season here on Oct. 2. Twenty returning lettermen will form the backbone of the 1948 Wolfpack, with a lot of help expected from rising sophomores, who saw some action as fresh­ men last year. The Clemson game follow.s f o r Coach Beattie Feathers' Eleven a meeting with Duke University. Eight rather tough opponents round out the N. C. State schedule. Using the single wing formation, the Wolfpack will operate with three well-known foot­ ballers; Bill Thomrson, tailback; Bob Smith, fullback; and Jim Byler, tackle. N. C. State was the only team which held the Tigers scoreless last year, the results 18 to 0.

BOSTON COLLEGE, Chestnut Hill, Mass.-Boston College should field a team that will easily better the none too impressive record of five wins and four losses in 194 7. The Eagles will again employ the T­ f orma tion that has been Head Coach Denny Myers' offensive weapon since he took over the reins at Boston CollPge in 1941. The addition of Herb Kopf, former Manhatten College and Boston Yanks head coach, to the staff of the Eagles should be of consid­ erable aid to Myers. A Catholic institution, locatecl just outside the City of Boston, is one of the favorite oppone11 ts of the Tigers. Clemson first encountered B. C. in the Cotton Bowl in 1940. To date, four games have been played, Clemson winning two and drop­ ping two. B. C. has tallied up 62 points agatnst Cle1n­ son's 61. Once again the meeting will be played 111 the Land of Beans.

LOCATION AND SIZE Located in the northwestern corner of South Caro­ lina, thirty miles from the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain,s, Clemson has grown from an institution with 446 students when it opened its doors in 1893 to the present day peak of 3200. The campus proper embraces 1646 acres. This is exclusive of hun­ dreds of acres scattered over the state as a part the experiment stations.

WAR RECORD Clemson has been a military (ROTC) all male in­ stitution .since its beginning. More than 6,000 former Clemson students served in the armed forces during World War II, and 365 are known to have paid the supreme sacrifice.

GRADUATES During the past fifty-five years, more than 26,000 students have studied at this Land Grant college, and. its graduates number more than 7,500.

EDUCATIONAL DIVISIONS The College's main divisions include the Schools of Agriculture, Engineering, Chemistry, Arts and Sciences, Vocational Education, and Textiles. Grad­ uate work can be obtained in most of the Schools. The Department of Military Science and Tactics of­ fers Reserve Officer training in Infantry, Ordnance, Air Force, Signal Corps, Armored Calvary, Engineer­ ing and Quartermaster.

THE PRESIDENT Dr Robert Franklin Poole became president of Clemson in 1940, succeeding the late Dr. Enoch Sikes. Born in Laurens County, S. C., December 2, 1893, Dr. Poole graduated from Clemson in 1918, a PH. D. de­ gree from Rutgers in 1921. He spent 17 months in France and Germany with the Aerial Photography Service during World War I. He was assistant pla11 t pathologist at the New Jersey Agricultural ExpeI·i­ ment Station from 1920 through 1926. Dr. Poole went to North Carolina State College in 1926 and remained there until he accepted the Clem.son presi­ dency in 1940.

• 1 '-:J'he Cf'jt:.7-1- Coac.hin9 cStaff FRANK HOWARD Head Coach of Football The 1948 football season marks Coach Frank How­ ard's ninth year as head coach of the Clemson Tig­ ers. He came to Clemson in 1931 as the Tiger's line coach under Jess Neely, and it was in 1940, when Neely pulled stakes to settle at Rice In,stitute in Tex ­ as, that Howard took the reins as chief mentor. Born in Alabama Born at Barlow Bend, Ala., on March 25, 1909, Howard spent his early days on a farm-and playing cow pasture baseball at every opportunity. The folks around Barlow Bend took very little interest in foot­ ball those days, and even if they had gotten the fever, there would not have been enough youngsters around the general store to get up a game. College Career The fall of 1927 found him bound for Tuscaloosa with most of his worldly goods in a hand grip and a gleam in his eyes that meant stiff opposition for who­ ever had a monopoly on Alabama's gua:r;d position. Coach (then at Alabama, now at Duke) sent Howard into his first game against Mississip1Ji State as a sophomore. He played as a reserve that year, and stepped into a varsity berth as a junior, starting all games but two this second year. ancl kept from those becau.se of an injured ankle. ''The Little Giant'' With the arrival of the 1930 campaign, great things were forecast for Alabama football. The gigantic sizes of the linemen prompted newspapermen to for­ get the nickname, ''The Crimson Tide" in favor of a new inspiration, ''The Red Elephants." At 185 pounds, Howard went quietly to the task of retaining his regular position among those mammouth line­ men. He was the one hitch in the nickname, "Red Elephants'', until an enterprising wr·iter came up with the "Little Giant'', manufactured exclusively for Howard. Throughout the year, Howard was ihe ''Little Giant'' of the ''Herd of Red Elephants''. The team swept through an undefeated season and cap­ ped it off by defeating Washington State, 24-0 in the January 1, 1931, game. On To Clemson Jess Neely, an assistant to Wallac2 Wade at Ala­ bama d·ur·ing the season of 1928-29-30 watched How­ ard throughout his college career. When Neely ac­ cepted the head coach position at Clem,3 on he i11~­ mediatel:y- selected the former ''Little Giant" as l11s line coach. Understudy Howard worked under a head coach whose team won only one game his first y,ear. Nine yea1·s later, Neely produced a team which lost only one gc1~e .. During those gruelling and hard-working years fo.l· Howard, he had ups and downs, which many coaches were not burdened with. Success came Neely's way and in 1939 h.is team defeated Boston College in the Cotton Bowl and paved the way for a job with Rice Institute. ''Tl1e Head'' Howard's eight year record as head coach at Clem- ( IO) - •

son has netted him 36 games won, 34 game lost and tied 3. The teams have scored 1349 points and have given up to their opponents 1039. Frank Howard's job at Clemson is a big one. In addition to being head coach with the trials and tribulations that ac­ company a position of that nature, he is the driving force behind the Athletic Association as Athletic Di­ rector. BOB JONES-End Coach-A standout Clemson foot­ ball and basketball star of the years 1928-30 and gEnerally considered one of the finest end,s in Clem­ son history, Bob Jones joined the coaching staff here u.pon graduation in 1930. Entering the Army jn 1941, Jones spent 12 months in the ETO, won the Silver Stai, Bronze Star, Purple Heart and Combat Infantry­ man's badge. I-le held the rank of Lieutenant Colonel when discharged in 1946. Jones is also head coach of the boxing and golf team. He now commands the 323rd. Inf. Regt. as full Colonel with Hdq. at Clsm son. COVINGTON McMILLAN - Backfield Coach - A Clemson gridiron star of the 1928-30 era, ''Goat'' Mc­ Millan spent four years coaching at Griffin, Ga. high school and three years at Furman University before joining the Clemson staff in 1937. Entering the Army in 1942, McMillan spent six months in the South Pacific, with Occupational duty in Korea and Japan. He held the rank of Captain when discharged in 1946. He is the Tiger'.s believer in statistics. -Backfield Coach-Clem son 's newest addition to its coaching staff is Russ Cohen, former top athletic man at Louisian a State Univer,~ ity and an assistant to Wallace W ade, when the present Duke mentor wa.s at Alabama. Cohen came to Clemson a year ago from Virginia Military Institute where for ten years, he had been backfield coach and chief scout. WALTER COX- Line Coacl1-A regular gua1~d on Clemson's 1939 Cotton Bown team, Walter Cox step­ ped out of a first string position with the Tigers into a job on the coaching staff. Called into the Army in 1942, Cox spent 12 m onths in the Figi Island, New Caledonia, and Guadalcanal, and held the rank of First Lieutenant wh en medically discharged in 1943. He serves as baseball coach in the spring. BANKS McFADDEN-Assistant Coach.-His play on the 1939 Tiger team placed ''Bonnie Banks" on the Associated Press All-Am,erican football team and on Chuck Taylor',s All American basketball team. Upon graduation in 1940, McFadden played professional football for the Brooklyn Dodgers and l,ead in ground gaining. He entered the Army in 1942, spent 33 months overseas and was a major at the time of his discharge. In the winter, McFadden is Clemson's basketball coach. A. W. NORMAN-Assistant Coach-Considered one of the greatest and most versatile athletes in the history of Roanoke College, ''Rock" Norman came to Clemson in 1940 as frehman football, varsity bas­ ketball and track coach.
