Two More Aggies
Named Assistants
A&M football coach Gene Stal
lings has announced the selection
of two more assistant coaches, both
former teammates at Aggieland.
Don Watson and Lloyd Taylor
are the new appointees. The 30-
year-old Watson left as varsity
offensive coach at South Carolina
to take the A&M post. Taylor
was assistant coach to Phil Cutchin
at Oklahoma State last season.
Taylor, a native of Roswell, N.
M., was the “other halfback” op
posite John David Crow in A&M’s
hayday under coach Paul Bryant.
He lettered three years, 1955-56-57.
In announcing the hiring of the
5’ 8”, 165-pound Taylor, Stallings
said, “I am happy to announce
that Loyd Taylor is joining our
coaching staff at Texas A&M. He
was one of the greatest little
players I’ve ever seen in football
and I know he will do an excellent
job because of his dedication and
all-around football knowledge. I
feel he will be a tremendous ad
dition to our staff.”
Taylor, best remembered at Ag
gieland for scoring 14 points dur
ing the final 46 seconds in the
stunning 20-12 win over Rice in
1955, said, “I feel honored to be a
member of coach Stallings’ new
staff here. I think it is a definite
challenge and I’m thrilled to be
back at Aggieland in this capaci
ty.”
Taylor is married to the former
Patricia Ann Plagens of Bryan.
They have three children, a daugh
ter, Tyann, 6 and two sons, Tray,
4 and Trent, 2.
Stallings said he was also de
lighted to announce the hiring of
Watson. “In my opinion, Don
Watson has a very excellent foot

Watson, from Franklin, was al
so a halfback at A&M, where he
lettered three years, 1954-55-56.
Watson said, “I feel this is a
great challenge to return to Aggie
land on coach Stallings staff. I
amm didicated to working for him
and A&M’s football program and
I’m just tickled to be back at my
old school.”

- If your mother
won’t pay a bit more to give
you this cordless shaver
for Christmas, it isn’t because
she’s pinching pennies.
It’s probably because you’re
still her little boy.
Sentimental mom.
Still can’t accept the facts of life. Sit down and tell her
a few. About the REMINGTON® LEKTRONIC II Shaver.
Tell her it’s cordless. That it runs on rechargeable en
ergy cells.* So you can shave on the spot. Any spot. That
a “man” needs this kind of freedom.
Tell her about the big shaver head.With 756 slots. How
once a whisker goes through, it’s going, going, gone.
Tell her about the 4 Roller Combs. How they gently
let you get to the whiskers, but not the skin. How they
even take care of any peach fuzz leftover from bygone days.
Tell her about 348 cutting edges. That start keen, stay
keen because they’re honed from surgical high-carbon steel.
Tell her the REMINGTON LEKTRONIC II motor is
the most powerful in electric shaving. That it never slows
down on straightaways or tricky curves.
Tell her how the head case flicks off—and there’s a
straight cutting edge for clean, even sideburns. Neat.
Will all this change your mother’s mind? Don’t ask us.
You’re a big boy now. Remember? IVIII^GrTTCDISr
