New Scoreboard For Yellow Jackets
By Sports Staff
Daily Commercial
June 12, 1971
The First National Bank of Leesburg has donated a new scoreboard to Leesburg High to replace the
existing board donated by the bank in 1953. Discussing the new board are Donald G. Jones, Cashier of
First National, Coach Wilbur Lofton, Ralph Pratt, Leesburg High School Principal, and Wendell H. Colson,
President of First National. The old board, which wore itself out tallying up the 2819 points scored by the
Yellow Jackets in the past 18 years, will be replaced in time for the home opener next fall against Ocoee
on September 17th. The old board served through 105 victories, 90 losses and 7 ties, outlasting coaches
Ed Stack, E.P. Burt, Billy Brewer and Melvin Smith. Lofton, coach since 1966, has a 33-17-1 record.
