Four Tuscarawas County Class B League basketball teams have agreed to participate in a special doubleheader at Dover's Memorial Hall to benefit the county's current March of Dimes drive, it was announced today. The event is slated for Wednesday, January 19, and will pit Baltic's Eagles against Gnadenhutten's Indians and the Port Washington Purple Riders against the Mineral City Tigers.

NO SET admission fee will be charged. Each person attending is asked to make at least a 50 cent contribution. This, in keeping with the March of Dimes slogan, will represent one dime for each player on the team which the fan is boosting. There will be no restrictions on contributing additional dimes for the substitutes, coaches and managers, and cheerleaders. The city of Dover had donated the use of Memorial Hall for the benefit and Dover High School will provide the clocks and scoreboards. Mineral City and Port Washington, originally not scheduled to play until February 4 at Mineral City, will collide in the curtain-raiser at 7:30PM while Gnadenhutten and Baltic meet at 8:45. The Indians and Eagles have met once before with Baltic winning 59-52.

KEN MATHIAS of New Philadelphia and Allan Veigel of Dennison will officiate the Mineral City-Port Washington game while Jim Morgan of New Philadelphia and Ed Smith of Strasburg will handle the Gnadenhutten-Baltic fray. All have donated their services. The concession stand located in the basement of the hall will be operated by the student council of Dover High School and part of the proceeds from that activity will also be turned over to the March of Dimes. Ticket sellers and takers will be provided by Atty. Joe Streb, the chairman of the county March of Dimes.
