According to James Foote, principal of the high school, the eastern division of the Harlem Clowns will be here and the same night the west ern division will be playing in Hoopa.

Pullins was a member of the original Harlem Globe trotters team back in the late 1920's. He broke with Abe Saperslein, Trotter s' boss. back in 1934 and went on the road with his now famous Clowns. This is the 27th year for the Clowns and during that time they have pla. ed thou sands of games in the USA, Canada, Mexico and Hawaii. The Clowns combine skill with fun on the hardwood, with their expert ball han dling, passing, and shooting, as well as their comic capers to thrill the audience The opposition for Ihe Clowns will be an All Star team chosen from the Men's Recreation league, who will try to keep the Clowns on their toes.
