Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant’s hungry Cadets storm into Waco Saturday night to test Baylor’s un defeated Bears in a contest that will draw a record crowd in Waco. At least 40,000 are already guar anteed for the 8 p.m. encounter at Baylor Stadium with a possibility of 45,000. The stadium holds 50,000 and the previous high is 37,000. “I can assure you that we’ll be ready Saturday,” Bear Coach Sam Boyd told the Waco Quarterbacks. You can bet this wasn’t idle chat ter, for the Golden Bears have waited since 1924 for a SWC championship and this is the year they could get it. Not since 1951, when they went to the Orange Bowl, has there been so much size, strength and experience in Waco.

Hearne’s Bobby Jones, starting man-under in 1955, ably fills Traylor’s vacant post “Baylor has more football players than TCU,” said Ag gie Assistant Coach Pat James after watching the Bears this year. “When a team has a right guard lineup of Bill Glass, Clyde Letbetter and Charles Horton, you can get an idea from that how many good boys they have.” Baylor has downed California, Texas Tech, Maryland and Arkan sas so far in 1956, giving up only 13 points while scoring 62 them selves. “Any team that holds Maryland scoreles,” stated James, “has a fine defensive club.” Jack Pardee, A&M’s all-confer ence fullback contender, will be a doubtful starter this Saturday. Pardee reinjured a shoulder in the rugged Frog game and hasn’t suit ed up yet this week.
