McCALL President; Baylor University Homecoming has long had a special meaning for Baylor University, and today we are doubly pleased to welcome our returned ex-students and their families. Weare also happy to welcome our Texas A&M University guests, as well as all others. The "Aggies" and Baylor have a lasting friendship which we value highly. The first contest in Baylor's recorded football history was with the Aggies, a 33-0 Baylor victory in 1899. Since that historic beginning Baylor and Texas A&M have enjoyed an enduring competitive friend- ship, regardless of the game scores. Baylor has a measure of pride in the fact that her leaders were among the earliest in the nation to recognize the values inherent in a healthy intercollegiate athletic program. Baylor's first official football team took to the gridiron in 1899; Baylor representatives were present at the May 6, 1914 meeting in Dallas when the Southwest Athletic Conference was organized. Baylor, today, values its background and its historic foundations, but is striving to keep pace with the future in all our endeavors. We hope your visit with us will include the opportunity to view the significant advances we have enjoyed in area, structures and quality in recent years. "". 'At Baylor, we genuinely enjoy your company, and it's our sincere hope that you'll have a pleasant visit, and will return often. Abner V.

TEXAS 76703 DIVISION OFCERrAIN'rEEO PRooucrs CORPORArlON JOHN D. BRIDGERS Athletic Director and Head Football Coach If you took the case to a court of law, it wouldn'.t be hard to find supporting evidence the man is a credit to his profession. Everyone who knows him would speak of his charact.er, and then without hesitation, his next words would wish him luck in the future. His peers would go one step further, they would say he is the greatest football coach in Baylor history. The man is John D. Bridgers. And his record clearly indicates he has tasted success more than any other football coach at the world's largest Bapdst university. Let's take a look at it. vIn nine seasons at the helm, his teams have broken even with 46 wins. 46 losses and one tie. And in, those years, the outside competition has been against perennial powers such as Syracuse, LSU, Southern California and Auburn. But more important is this fact, Baylor is one of only three Southwest Conference teams that has played .500 per cent football in the past nine years. Texas has won 75, lost 20 and tied two games since 1959, and Arkansas has established a 72-23-1 mark. , vHis SWC record, 28-33-1, has been surpassed by only one former Baylor coach. Morley Jennings (1926-40) won 34, lost 45, and tied five in conference competition. vBaylor hisLOrically has participated in seven bowl games, Bridgers-coached teams have won two and lost one. The Bears defeated sixth-ranked Utah State in the 1961 Gotham Bowl, 24-9, and LSU, 14-7, in the 1963 Bluebonnet Bowl. A two-point conversion gamble, going for the win, gave Florida a 13-12 win in the 1960 Gator Bowl. vBridgers' renowed football reputation has earned him coaching assignments in post-season games seven of his nine Baylor years, and only a bowl game prevented him from accepting his eighth. His first post-season "star" assignment was the N orth- South Shrine game in 1961. The next two years, he worked the East-West Shrine classics, and then went to the All- America game (Buffalo) in 1964. He served in the Blue- Gray contests at Montgomery, Alabama, the next two years and returned to the North-South game in I967. yHe has been the principal offensive football speaker at the All-America clinic (Atlantic City), and at prep coarh- ingschools in Alabama, Florida, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas. Even after experiencing his worst year ever as a coach in 1967, Baylor was 1:8-I, Paul "Bear'" Bryant showed his confidence in Bridgers by asking him to lead the offensive discussions in the University of Alabama's summer clinic. (Incidentally, a note for the superstitious crowd, 1967 was his 13th as a head coach.) ySeven Bridgers-coached athletes are active in pro- fessional football, and 16 have made it to the "money league" since 1959. Ronnie Bull was the No.1 draft choice of the Chicago - ---~~;.,--~ Bears in 1961 and earned National Football League "Rookie of the Year" honors in 1962. Lawrence Elkins was the top choice of both Green Bay and Houston in 1964, and was the Southwest's first two year consensus All-America since Doak Walker. This is a true indication his sound football philosophy and training have been advantageous to Baylor athletes wanting a professional career. . Bridgers arrived on the Waco campus after two years with the Baltimore Colts. He was the defensive line coach of the 1958 World Championship team that defeated the New York Giants, 23-17, in a sudden death overtime. One of his first changes at Baylor was to spread the offense, and initiate the aggressive pro-set passing attack. This new-look earned Baylor a reputation as one of the most exciting teams in America. Baylor has led the SWC in passing six of the past eight years. In five of these seasons, the Bears had the league's passing leader, twice the national champion, and once the nations top receiver. Four of the five years Baylor pro- duced the conference's total offense king. Bruin passers own five of the top seven single-season pass completion totals in SWC history. Don Trull's 174 (1963) and Terry Southall's 173 (1966) are at the top. These two quarterbacks own almost all conference passing records. Trull was the NCAA passing champion in 1962 and 1963, and Lawrence Elkins' 70 receptions in 1963 was the best in the land_ Buddy Humphrey was the national passing leader in 1958. .. Although Bridgers is best known for f,roducing top athletes, he is proud of the increasing number who earn degrees. About 80 per cent of Baylor's scholarship athletes meet graduation requirements. And some of these student-athletes have distinguished themselves in the classroom with the same enthusiasm thev display on the field. Bull and Trull led the nation in vote's for the All-America scholastic team in 1961 and 196.1 re- spectively. And guard Mickey Kennedy and halfback Eddie Whiddon (1965) received NCAA graduate academic-achieve- ment scholarships for athletes. Kennedy had the highest grade point average of the 22 athletes receiving NCAA national grants in 1964. Bridgers was born January 13, 1922, in Birmingham. Ala- bama. He and his identical twin brother, Frank, played guard at Auburn in 1940-41-42, helping the Tigers post a 16- I3-3 record. . With the presence of World War II, he left the university in the middle of his senior year and joined the enlisted reserve with the rank of private. He became a captain of artillery in the European campaign, and again served in that capacity in the Korean War. During the war interim, he returned to Auburn to com- plete his degree requirements. Bridgers graduated with honors and was presented a scholarship key for the highest four-year g-rade point in the School of Business. His coaching career also began at Auburn; he doubled as "B" team coach and full-time instructor in Economics in 1946. The next year Bridgers was accepted for entrance in the Yale law school. but he chose a job with Sewannee Uni- versity where he served as line coach for five years. Following the Korean War Bridgers assumed head foot- balI and track coaching duties at Johns Hopkins Universitv, winnin~ the Mason-Dixon Conference football championship in 1956. He joined the professional ranks in 1957 and was named head football coach and director of athletics a~ Baylor in 1959. Bridgers also is recognized as one of the top athletic directors in the country, and has been the instrumental factor in the success of Baylor's total athletic program. He initiated the Academic Athletic Scholarship Program, providing grants for studen'-athle.+es who have distinguished themselves academically and as citizens of their community. Religion has long played an important role in Bridqers' life. He has twice served as president of he national council for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and is an ordained deacon at Waco's Seventh and James Baptist church. He and his wife, Frances, have two sons, Don and Dixon, who are student-athletes at Richfield High School. Bridgers' record spells success. If you took it to court, case dismissed. (9) r~ ~.

Raw Farll! by GEORGE 51 ADE I I 1; 'Y ~~ ..." 'lilt" l- "',, ''''....- y l ~~~----, :J T HERE ARE many ways in which football is unique among sports, and as many others in which it is the full- est expression of what is at the heart of all sports. There is no other major sport so dependent upon raw force, nor any so dependent on a complex and delicate strategy; none so wide in the range of specialized functions demanded from its players; none so dependent upon the undifferentiated athletic sine qua non, a quick-witted body; none so primitive; none so fu- turistic; none so American. Football is first of all a form of play, something one engages in in- stinctively and onIy for the sake of performing the activity in question. Among forms of play, football is a game which means that it is built on comrr:unal needs, rather than on pri- vate evasions, like mountain climb- ing. Among games it is a sport; it re- quires athletic ability, unlike check- ers. And among sports, it is one whose mode is violence and whose vioIence is its special gIory. In some sports-basketball, base- ball, soccer - violence is occasional (and usually illegal); in others, like hockey, it is incidental; in others still, car racing, for example, it is ac- cidental. Definitive violence football shares alone with boxing and bull- fighting, among major sports. But in bullfighting a man is pitted not against another man, but against an animal, and boxing is a competition between individuals, not teams, and that makes a great difference. If shame is the proper and usual penalty for failures in sporting com- petitions between individuals, guilt is the consequence of failing not only oneself and one's fans, but also one's teammates. Failure in football, more- over, seems more reIated to a failure of courage, seems more unmanning .,... 'I. " :;;;;;;0 than in any other sport outside of bullfighting. In other sports one loses a knack, is outsmarted, or is merely inferior in ability, but in football, on top of these, a player fails because he "lacks desire," or "can't take it any- more," or "hears footsteps," as his teammates will put it. These physical and mental risks, the fact that pain and injury are not only commonplace but inevitable, dignify the game, give the playing of it grav- ity and the watching of it zest. For in sports, as in gambling, and as in most of the activities that we think of as peculiarly masculine, the greater the risk, the more serious the play, the keener the fun. The football player risks the violation of his being, and risks it in public. Every forty-five seconds or so he must endure the in- timacy of a violent collision with an- other man; he must pit his skill, courage, and strength, the qualities that define him, against another's, and then consult his flesh and emo- tions to see whether he has been di- minished or increased in the process. Many sports, especially those in which there is a goal to be defended, seem enactments of the games ani- mals play under the stimulus of what ethnologists, students of animal be- havior, call territory-"the drive to gain, maintain, and defend the ex- clusive right to a piece of property," as Robert Ardrey puts it. The most striking symptom of this drive is ag- gressiveness, but among social ani- mals, such as primates, it leads to "amity for the social partner, hostiI- ity for the territorial neighbor." The territorial basis of certain kinds of sports is closest to the surface in football, whose plays are all attempts to gain and defend property through aggression. Does this not make foot- ball par excellence the game of in- (12) - stinctual satisfactions, especially for Americans, who are notorious as vio- lent patriots and instinctive defend- ers of private property? And what is it that corresponds in football to the various feathers, furs, fins, gorgeous coIors by means of which animals puff themselves into exaggerated gestures of masculine potency? The football player's equipment, of course. His cleats raise him an inch off the ground. Knee and thigh pads thrust the force lines of his legs forward. His pants are tight against his rump and the back of his thighs, portions of his body which the requirements of the game stuff with muscle. Even the tubby guard looks slim of waist by comparison with his shoulders, ex- tended half a foot on each side by padding. Finally the heImet, which from the esthetic point of view most clearly expresses the genius of the sport. Not only does the helmet make the player inches taller and give his head a size proportionate to the rest of him; it makes him anonymous, in- scrutable, more serviceable as a sym- bol. The football pIayer in uniform strikEls the eye in a succession of ges- talt shifts: first a hooded phantom out of the paIeolithic past of the species; then a premonition of a future of spacemen. In sum, and I am almost serious about this, football players are to America what tragic ac.tors were to ancient Athens and gladiators to Rome: models of perennially heroic, aggressive, violent humanity, but adapted to the social realities of the times and places that formed them. For only American money, only the American educational system, onIy the American life-styIe couId have produced football or created an audi- ence capable of responding to its unique beauty. Who else but a people now grown sederitary on profits from the violence that continues to be their nationaI habit are likeIy to feeI the psychosociaI reIevance of foot- ball with any sort of poignancy or see in football the testing of their na- tional aspirations? OnIy Amer-icans could. And that is why, every year from September through January, Americ'an men negIect their wives and daydream at their jobs. Football is at once the expression of what has made us Americans and our human response to what has made us Americans. It is the product of a perfect fusion of our human na- ture with our national character. So there is no use asking whether football is immoral or brutal or cost- ly. No use asking whether it is a sign of health or disease in our civiliza- tion. It is a part of things as here and now they necessarily are. And it is one of the few thin.gs of that sort that can make you feel good. ~ How you can "join" America's Olympic Team ,You can be there at the Meldco City Olympic Games as a wel- come contributor to the Olym- pic Fund.

J. RITCHIE COACHED 1901 BEARS Nothing exemplifies Bay]or Homecoming more than the football game. And today, it is only fitting that we recognize the first man ever to assume the duties of head coach for the Bears-\iV. J. Ritchie. Ritchie coached the Bears in 1901 and had a 5-1 won and loss record. He beat Texas A&M twice, 46-0 and 17-6, and lost to the Aggies once, 0-6. His team scored 163 points and held the opponents to 52 points. Ritchie currently resides with his son, William, J r., in Citrus Heights, California. Welcome back Coach Ritchie, and thank you for starting a tradition. RIDLEY GIBSON PRESENTED BOBBY JONES MEMORIAL , Today, the third annual BOBBY JONES MEMORIAL AWARD will be presented to Ridley Gibson, hard-hitting defensive halfback at Baylor in 1965, '66, and '67. The presentation will be made by the th:-ee sons, of the former Baylor quarterback and coach at Baylor, Air Force ~cademy and Tenne3see, Bobby, Stephen and Mark. Previous awards have been presented to Donnie Laurence and Richard Defee. I I I ~ i' i I: I. BOBBY JONES The award is presented to the sen- ior member of the Baylor team who, in the opinion of the Baylor coaching staff, contributed the most in the Homecoming game. The player se- lected from today's game will be hon- ored at the 1969 Homecoming game. Leadership, sportsmanship, team play and performance in practice the week prior to the game are considered by the coaching staff. . I' RIDLEY GIBSON NCAA FINALISTS RETURN And the 1948 Basketball team is observing its 20th anniversary today. In case your memory is foggy, Coach Bill Henderson directed the Bears to the Nc:AA finals and to the Olympic trials. Jackie Robinson was selected to the United States Olympic team and received a go!d medal, the U.S. didn't lose a game. Incidentally, no other SWC basketball team has ever advanced to the NCAA finals. ~ Members of the team were Robinson, Don Heath,ngton. Ralph Pulley, Jim Marion, Bill Scrack, Clarence McGowan (deceased). Bill Hickman, Red Owens, Odell Preston, Bill DeWitt, Bill Johnson, Chuck Daveraux, manager Jim vVard and trainer De]mer Brown. ..

The grants are awarded by a faculty scholarship committee of Baylor University. The Baylor Academic-Athletic Scholarship Program is a cooperative endeavor which gives business and professional men, ex-students and friends of Baylor University an opportunity to provide a college education for worthy young men who qualify scholastically and participate in athletics, A faculty scholarship committee administers the program. This committee prescribes regulations under which the program is administered, including the selection of candidates and the awarding of scholarships. The scholarship shall not exceed the maximum benefits permitted by the S@uthwest Athletic Conference and shall be renewed each year or until the student has completed his undergraduate program, provided he continues to meet all requirements. Baylor University's athletes who are placed on the Baylor Academic- Athletic Scholarship list not only have first earned their places thro.ugh scholastic achievement, the honor also has inspired the great majority of these student-athletes to achieve further scholastic improvement to the point where the average grade of these student-athletes is at least the equal of the scholastic level of virtually any similar group in the University. The Baylor Academic-Athletic Scholarships, sponsored through the loyalty of many ex-students and other friends of Baylor, also have proven to be a financial boon to the growing Baylor athletic budget. Some of the University's finest scholars are enrolled in this program. The past spring semester, for instance; two football players achieved a perfect 4.00, or straight A average, and 45 of those assigned to this program had B or better average for the full year. ~ DON TRULL An outstanding student with a ma- jor in mathematics, Don Trull now is playing professional football with the Houston Oilers. He was top vote getter for the 1963 Scholastic All-America team. DAVID HUPP David Hupp accumulated a 3.8 gra< point in accounting and was pr' sented the Phillips-Hall Award, re ognizing the senior athlete .with tl highest four-year average. AN EXPLANATION In the past, individual athletes were assigned to a maximum of 70 scholarships which have been in effect ~. for the longest period of time. Now 100 full scholarships are in effect. Due to the difficulty of assigning athletes to particular scholarships, it has been decided that in the future athletes will be selected on the basis of their scholastic record, athletic ability, character and leadership, for the honor of being assigned to the Academic-Athletic Scholarship Program and will not be assigned to a particular scholarship unless specifically requested.

As a matter of fact, he even thinks it might be a good omen. You see, the experts placed Baylor in the league's cellar last year and Menefee led his Bears to a second piilce SWC finish. A loss to champion Texas Christian in the season's finale erased Baylor's bid for the league crown, dropping the Bears one game behind the Frogs with an 8-6 SWC record, and a 15.--; overall mark. Baylor led the conference most of the season, but lost five of its' last six league games.' Menefee talks about Baylor's chances for a repeat performance cautiously. He'll begin by saying something like this: "The conference is stronger than it's been in years, and you have to consider TCU, SMU, A&M, and Arkansas as contenders. They have everyone back from last year. We were hurt by graduation, but we do return Tommy Bowman." back from last year. We were hurt by graduation, but we do return Tommy Bowman." Russell Kibbe, who earned AII-SWC mention at forward, g'Jard Bob Porter and center Ed Thorpe terminated their eligibility last year. So Menefee must first find replacements for these dependable front-line performers before the Bears can be con- sidered a contender in the pre.season analysis. But then, one must remember he has Bowman on the asset side of the balance shef,t. And that, in itself, gives Baylor a deserving. long look from other SWC coaches a;l.' followers. Bowman, a 6-4 forward, was fifth in league rebounding with 9.5 grabs per game and fourteenth in scoring with a 13.5 average. He was eighth in field goal accuracy hitting 123 of 251 shots for 49.0 per cent and tenth from the charity line with a 79.6 percentage, making 78 of 98 'attempts. These statistics eanned him SWC Sophomore of the Year honors and berths on the all,conference and Look Magazine All-District Six teams. Senior guard Randy Thompson and junior center David Sibley should add quality to Baylor's attack. Both were part-time starters last year. ' Thompson is an excellent playmaker and is being counted on to assume team leader- ship responsibilities. He averaged 4.1 points last year. Sibley is blessed with basketball savvy and is one of the league's top defensive per- formers. He was second in team scoring (12.5) and rebounding (4.4) as a sophomore. Forwards Larry Gatewood and Steve Bartels and guards Richard Scallorn and Ed Frazier will battle for the other two starting vacancies. Gatewood is an explosive offensive threat with a great variety of shots, but lacked consistency last year. He averaged 10.2 points per game. Bartels could add both rebounding strength and scoring-punch. He averaged only 5.5 points and 3.3 rebounds last year, but showed much potential two years ago as Baylor's third best scorer (11.7) and second leading rebounder (6.6). He averaged 25.3 points and 11.7 grabs in freshman competition. Scallorn and Frazier are both pressure defensive players, but need to gain offensive confidence. They had a combined 4.1 scoring average as reserves a year ago. Junior college transfer Joe Lanning and sophomore center Tom Friedman could add needed support. Lanning, a 6-3 guard, hit 52 per cent from the field and averaged 19 points per game last year at Grayson County Junior College. He could supply the needed outside scoring punch. Friedman displayed much ability in freshman competition averaging 21.2 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. "Overall, we have good team speed but below average height," said Menefee. "Our tallest starter will be 6,5 or 6-6 and we'll have a lot of trouble guarding the good, big man. . "We'll have to make a minimum of errors, play good defense, hit a high percentage from the field and improve our rebounding to have a good year." Baylor runs a double.post offense and a strict man-for-man defense. In addition to a tough SWC schedule, the Bears have non-conference games against Loyola of New Orleans, Tulane, New Mexico State, Texas Lutheran and Tarleton State. Baylor will participate in the Bayou Holiday Classic at Lafayette,' La., against Hawaii, 'Aississippi State and host Southwest Louisiana, and in the East Carolina Classic at Green- vi lie, N. C. Other teams in the Carolina touonament are Air Force Academy, Delaware, Cornell, Virginia, Virginia Tech, William & Mary and host East Carolina. Baylor begins competition, December 3, against Texas Lutheran in Waco's Heart O'Texas Coliseum. And Menefee hopes it'll be the first step toward proving the prognosticators wrong again. 1968.69 BAYLOR BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Dec. 3 Texas Lutheran Heart O'Texas Coliseum Jan. 25 Texas Tech Dec. 6 Loyola New Orleans Jan. 28 Arkansas .,..
