The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas Tuesday, November 13, 1956 PAGE 5 Crush Stumbling Ponies, 33-7 Hornets Blast Tigers, 20-0 Caldwell’s speedy Hornets power ed over CHS’s futile efforts Fri day night, handing the Tigers their third consecutive District 23 A A loss, 20-0. Led by the bull-like rushes of fullback Bill Kavanaugh, the Tigers managed 80 yards on the ground and would have netted considerably more had it not been for heavy losses from repeated fumbles in the backfield. Consolidated’s over head attack was good for six com pletions in 15 attempts for a total of 33 yards. The Tigers mounted their best drive of the night midway in the third quarter. Moving from their own 20 deep into Caldwell terri tory, they racked up five first downs in the process. The drive bogged down after reaching Cald well’s nine-yard line, as the Tigers again showed a lack of the scoring Mustangs Never in Game After Cadets Quick Score more sportcoat for your money when the label says it’s Look at the sport coat — then look twice at the price tag. It's that kind of value! You see it m the up-to-the-minute styling — the narrower lapels, the natural shoulders, the easy, flattering lines of the cut. You see it in the skillful tailoring by Berkray, in the Armo canvas interlining that insures shape retention. And you see it in the fine tweedy woolens that assure long wear.

Up to that time the Mustangs, undefeated in conference play, had entertained visions of grandeur and a possible victory over the na tion’s fifth-ranked eleven, but they were never in the game after the opening kickoff. PAUL (BEAR) BRYANT’S Aggies produced another crushing ground victory with enough passes, four for four and one touchdown, to keep it balanced. The Cadets ground out 277 yards rushing and another 59 through the air, while SMU managed a meager 83 yards on the ground and 126 in the sky. Quarterbacks Charley Arnold and Larry Click tried 32 passes and completed 12 as the Aggies stole three. The Ponies’ biggest mistake came when they called the flip wrong and had to kickoff. That put them immediately six points behind and they never recovered. John Tracey returned SMU’s short kick to the Aggie 30 where the slaughter began. Despite two penalties totaling 20 yards, the Aggies scored in 10 plays. Loyd Taylor, playing a tre mendous game on both the offense and defense, was stopped for no gain after an offsides penalty. John Crow, establishing himself as one of the nation’s finest backs game after game, swept left end for 12 and Taylor dove for two. Roddy Osborne got beautiful block ing on a fake punt and rode for 19 to the Mustangs 42 on fourth, and one. CROW AND JACK PARDEE got three apiece and Osborne, who led both teams with 71 yards in 12 trips, kept for the first on the 30. Crow used an old Oklahoma play, fumbling for nine yards as John Tracey recovered, but the Aggies lost 15 for clipping. Taylor cut through left tackle for 15 to the 15 where Crow crashed through right tackle un touched for the touchdown. Tay lor’s try for point failed with 9:10 remaining in the opening period. An exchange of punts gave SMU the ball on their own 41, but Bobby Conrad picked Arnold’s pass out of the ozone on the A&M 45 on third down and returned it 20 yards to the Pony 35. Richard Gay made five up the middle and Conrad kept on the option for seven and a first on the 23. Don Watson raced around left end and seemed sur prised to find not a Mustang in sight as he loafed over to make it .12-0 with 2:48 to go. Taylor missed, but nobody cared. The second quarter saw much action, but no scoring until close to the intermission. Conrad kicked to Click who returned to the SMU 31. The jittery Mustangs fumbled twice, the second covered by Jim Stanley on the 35. Pardee and Osborne moved the ball to the 13 in five plays where Crow, on the same play he had scored on pre viously, ripped through half a dozen Ponies into the end zone. This time Taylor’s kick rode true and A&M led 19-0 with 1:09 left in the half. The biggest crowd this year in the Cotton Bowl watched the Mus tangs ci’own their Homecoming Queen, then sat back to see the white-clad Aggies continue their massacre. It took 10 minutes to score again. Charlie Jackson kicked out to Watson who returned to the SMU 44. On the first play from scrimmage fullback George Gillar broke through the middle, cut in side, then outside and raced un touched down the sideline for the touchdown with 4:25 left in the quarter. Conrad converted to make it 26-0. MIDWAY IN THE FOURTH, Gene (Bebes) Stallings gathered in Arnold’s errant aerial and return ed it 34 yards to the SMU 28. Jimmy Wright lost nine trying to pass, Watson hit guard for a pair, and two Wright passes to Watson and Carlos Esquival for the first on the eight. Wright flipped a true strike to Don Smith who took it away from two Pony defenders for the final Aggie score and Wright kicked good. SMU moved 71 yards against the Aggie third team with Jackson driving over from the five for the score wdth 1:17 remaining.
