In November the talk turned to football, football and more football. It was the month of the big game . . . Texas! The Bears went into the game with a 2-4 record, but that did not dampen spirits. 'Next year' had finally arrived and Baylor had last year's heart-breaking loss to avenge. All-American Lawrence Elkins must have been haunted by the memory of last year's winning catch snatched from his hands in the last minutes of play by the ghostly figure of Texas' Duke Carlise. Determination seemed to be paying off for the Bears as Baylor went ahead 14-13 with four minutes left on the scoreboard, At last they were beating Texas+the season was a success. But three minutes and a 25-yard pass later, the Baylor section was stunned into silence. Once again Texas had robbed the Bears of their victory in the final minutes. A few freshmen loudly proclaimed, 'Wait 'til next year' but those who still vividly remembered last year, and the year before and . . . were silenced by the irony of the situation. They began to wonder . . . can the jinx ever be broken . . . maybe, maybe next year . . . they whispered. But 'Our Bears never quit' is another Baylor motto, and this year's team proved no exception. After losing to Texas, Baylor defeated Kentucky, SMU and Rice in rapid succession to end the season in third place. Finally, talk of holidays and home, turkey and dressing overshadowed the football speculation. Even then there were games to be replayed, and by the time each moment had been relived, November ended and Santa replaced Elkins on everyone's All-America list. CVE BER '
