Globetrotters Defeat
Gurdon10 to 3
The famous Globetrotters pulled
into a tie with Magnolia for the
Ark-La-Tex league lead Sunday,
by defeating the Gurdon Panthers
10-3. It was the first victory for
the Globetrotters over the Pan-
thers, having lost two to them
earlier in the season.
It was evident early in the game
that the Globetrotters was out to
take this one as they took an
early lead and was never serious-
ly threatened by the Panthers.
The Globetrotters collected 16
hits off of Gurdon pitchers. Nor-
man went the route for the Globe-
trotters picking up his sixth win l
against one defeat.
Beaver sparked the attack for
the Globetrotters with 3 hits in
five times at bat. Gaston, John-
son, Wesley and Norman had two
hits each. Gurdon will be in town
Saturday night to renew the feud
with the Globetrotters. The man-
agement of the Globetrotters has
gone to considerable expense to
j*et a winning team for Atlanta.
We have it now, so every one come
out and support your local team.
