A&M’s Maroon and White gridsters, over their injuries following last week’s 27-20 loss to Baylor, will be all out to hand the Porkers their third conference loss. Coach Otis Douglas’ team has dropped conference games to Texas Christian and the University of Texas while man aging to best only the Baylor Bears. Arkansas opened its season by losing to Oklahoma A&M. They bounded back the next weekend to trounce firmly North Texas State but dropped another non-conference tilt to Vanderbilt 14-13 last week to bring their record to a won 2, lost 4. Douglas, fresh from pro coaching duties with the Phila delphia Eagles has indoctrinated pro tactics in the form of the split T into Arkansas’ system of play. His pro defense is patterned to man-for-man coverage while his offense is wellsuited to passing. Manp ower is plentiful but experience sparse for the Razorbacks. They boast the biggest tackles and ends in the SWC. All told they have 26 returning lettermen including four ends, four tackles, five guards, three centers and ten backs. Inexperienced quarterbacks were the Arkansas mentor’s biggest worry at the beginning of the season but trainees have come along better than expected. Both coaches and spectators will get a chance to . see if Arkansas’ past six games have provided the experience need ed by Douglas’ boys in order to make .them into a well oiled machine of men. In the all time series between the two schools the Ag gies have won 10, lost 11, and two games have ended in ties. , n f.'
