Jacques Cordon is now in his fifth year as a "Globetrotter fix ture" since Saperstein first dis covered the fancy Frenchman per forming in a circus in Europe. Im pressed by Cordon's possibilities, Abe immediately put him under contract .and the two together worked out the spectacular routine that amazes the crowds attending the Globetrotter presentations. A ' champion cyclist and track star in his native Europe, Jacques Is naturally athletically inclined, which aids In his performing his difficult routine. As a youth, Cordon had to decide fast between pur suing a championship athletic ca reer or accepting the tempting of fers pouring in to make use or his outstanding talents as a trick unicyclist and . Juggler par excel lence. The latter won out and Jac ques hasn't had cause to regret it, especially as it led to his pres ent fine association with the Har lem Globetrotters; I's touch enoutrh being a good unicyclist or Juggler, but the fas cinating Frenchman has combined the two trts into one, resulting in an act that has few equals in the theatrical or circus novelty field. His tricky riding and Juggling at breakneck speed atop a small table. is a pulsating show-stopper.
