Weatherby had been out since early in the train ing season with a broken wrist, but played the last quarter of the game in l^uisiana last week. ’ When the Green and Gold eleven makes its bow in Little Rock Sat urday, more veterans are likely to be in the starting line than have beea before thin season. Against opposition Baylor’s many sopho more failed to deliver, as did aev eral of the older men. Monday the Bears took on a com paratively easy workout and were off the field before «.-00 p. ro., hut Tuesday 1 found them in • sci mage session with the- Baylor fresh mas squad.
