"Coach" making up one of his famous plays (635-RIGHT)

THE WAKE COUNTY BOARD of EDUCATION ( 25 FEBRUARY 1980 ) in honor of the memory of Peter ( Pete ) Hines Williams, Jr.,named the athletic stadium at the Athens Drive High School the "Peter Hinbes Williams, Jr. Memorial Staeium."

When Peter ( Pete ) Hines Williams, Jr., stepped down as head football coach at Ligon in 1969, his football coaching record stood at 197 victories, 69 defeats, and 8 ties. That record remains as one of the best in North Carolina.

I, ELLIS R. JONES ( FLOSSIE ) happen to be chosen by my peers (ACTING CAPTAIN), along with CO-CAPTAIN Norman ( KAKI ) Bates in 1950, when the football record was set. Our team was credited with 11-0 record ( STATE CHAMPS ).
