Va udeville acts to be staged before the game and at halftime in clude two acrobatic acts, a uni cycle act. a hoop magician and a juggler Coach \bc Saperstein's club is probably the wlnnlngest team in basketball history. In 80 seasons the (ilolietrotters have amassed over 5,000 victories while losing less than 400.

Adult general admission is $1.25 while reserved seats sell for $1.80. Saperatein's Trotters have ex perienced some unique incidents in the 30-year history of the world-renown aggregation. Like the time in Wheatland, la., many years ago. The trotters were playing in a hayloft. One of the opponents crashed into a Trotter. A door at the end of the hayloft failed to stop Saperstein's boy and out he fell into the night, a distance of 25 feet. Horrified, Abe rushed out to see what had happened to his fallen player. Everything was all right. The Trotter had landed on a huge pile of fer tilizer, and when he returned to the game, he smelled “just luscious.” For years he was known as “Luscious Lester.” Then there was the time, back in 1949, when Saperstein and Co. first invaded Alaska. Playing be fore an Eskimo audience, they were completely flabbergasted when their best efforts produced not a single hand clap or demon stration of approval. It developed later that this was the Eskimo method of showing appreciation - tne more deathly the silence, the higher the ap proval.
