Gtrotters Gain Fans

CHICAGO.~Among the most avid and enthusiastic followers of the famous Harlem Globetrotters are the students
bf Chicago~s.McKinley high school, a big. institution on the
Windy City~s sprawling South Side.

Whenever the Globetrotters: play in Chicago or the sur| rounding area, hundreds of
| McKinley students turn out
to watch them exhibit their
court magic. The main reason
for this enthusiasm, of course,
is dapper Leon Hillard, the; game~s greatest and most en| tertaining dribbler.

Hillard is the school~s most.

~ famous alumnus, insofar as bas-)
~ketball is concerned. Although
only 23 years old, ~Leon is a
five-year veteran with the
Globetrotters. He realized his
life ambition, he says, when Abe
Saperstein, boss of he ~Trotters,
signed him right out of high
school.

~T always wanted to play with
the Globetrotters,~ Leon told a
sportswriter the other day, ~but~
was afraid I couldn~t make the
team because I~m not too big..
(He~s 5 ft. 10 ins.) I realized
that I'd have to. perfect a
specialty of some kind if I ex-, pected-to make it. So, I started

concentrating on -dribbling. 1
practiced daily for hours and, finally perfected, the technique.
When Mr. Saperstein saw me
in action, he offered dme a nice,
fat contract. Naturally, I signed
~immediately. Playing with the
Globetrotters has been a wonderful experience. I love it.~
Fans all-over the world Jove
Leon, too, His great dribbling
feats have made him an. inter
national sports celebrity, Next
week fans 1 Okiahome @ and
Texas will have an opportun
ity to see why Hillard has cap
tivated so many cage follow
ers during the past five years,
when the Trotters appear in
om following cities:

Feb. 15, Oklahoma City, Okla.;
