Almost as exciting to Owner
Coach Abe Saperstein as finding
a new basketball star lor bis cel
ebrated Harlem Globetrotters, who
play the City, League All-Stars on
Pelican court Dec, i along wita
the opening game between the Bos
ton Whirlwinds and County All-
Stars, is discovering an outstand
ing thin tl-iil not In 1m llcrH In
the team'x added "betweenhalvea" J
lloor shows. .The Trotters Impres-
sario takes pride in keeping this
added show on the same high lev
el as his world-famed basketball
quintet.
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.
JACKPOT SINGLES
Mel Robinson went Into the lead
In the Jackpot Singles Tournament
at Lucky Lanes last night with a
whooping 679 series. A 20 handicap
for the three games gave Mel a
609. series, with scratch games of
314, 189 and 276.
Frank Beard, leader since Sept.
24 with 691, iell to second place.
Robinson, on his' last game,
threw eight strikes in a row,
spared the ninth, then turkeyed
out.

able to run against the Terps,
Wilkinson said.
"I don't think we played any
team as good as Oklahoma, ' said
Tatum an hour later.
Wilkinson appeared disturbed
when. informed that Midwest

he countered. .
