By RONNIE GREATHOUSE
Battalion Sports Editor
A&M footballers worjced longer,
harder and more enthusiastically
yesterday in preparation for Sat
urday’s battle with the surprising
LSU Tigers at Dallas.
“I think the boys were trying
today,” said Coach Paul Bryant,
“but we’ve still got a lot of work
to do.”

Sparked once again by fullback
George Gillar’s slashing running
the first team swept to a touch
down in 11 plays against the No. 3
team. Quarterback Jimmy Winght
directed the first team’s attack.
Taylor Stands Out
Right halfback Loyd Taylor, 5-8,
175-pound sophomore, was also a
standout in the Maroon team’s of
fense, reeling off runs of 15, 5, and
20 yards. His last dash of 20
yards gave the first team a touch
down.
“If Pardee’s defensive work
wasn’t so outstanding Gillar would
probably start against LSU,” Bry
ant said.
Bryant sent his gridders through
offensive and defensive pass pat
terns, ending a two-hour practice
session with a crisp 20-minute
scrimmage under game conditions.
Linebacker Ken Hall and center
Herb Wolf stood out on defense.

Quarterback Donnie Grant’s run
ning on the “keeper play,” and
Don Watson’s end scampers spark
ed the second team to a touchdown.
Grant shook loose from four tack-
lers to get away a 15-yd. touch
down pass.
A&M will run-up against a fa
miliar offense in the LSU game, as
Paul Dietzel, new head mentor at
the Baton Rouge University this
fall, employs the same split-T for
mation as Bryant.
In fact, Dietzel once served as an
assistant coach under Bryant when
the current Aggie coach was at
Kentucky. And he is well schooled
in the Bryant brand of sound foot
ball coaching.
Tigers
The Tigers, boasting 16 return
ing lettermen, were rated no better
than 11th in the 12 team South
eastern Conference before the sea
son began. But, after last week’s
sound thumping of highly touted
Kentucky, the Tigers appear to be
a team to be reckoned with. ^
“I thought Kentucky was going
to have one of the best teams in
years,” commented Coach Bryant.
According to the experts form
Louisiana the blocking, tackling
and line plunges in the Kentucky
contest were the best made by an
LSU team in years.
Paced by the passing combina
tion of quarterback Matt Burns to
right half Vince Gonzales, and the
running of fullback O. K. Fergu
son, LSU poses a definite threat
to A&M’s sophomore dominated
eleven.
Cotton Bowl
The 75,000 seat Cotton Bowl will
be the scene of the 20th meeting
between the Aggies and Tigers.
LSU holds a one-game edge in the
series, which is being resumed aft
er an absence of five years.
Tiger end Joe Tuminello was an
all-Southeastern Conference per
former as a sophomore, and is a
starter for the fourth straight
season.
