Ray Winder had a plan. After attracting fewer than 68,000 fans during a 77-game home schedule in 1958, the Travelers professional baseball club left Little Rock and moved to Shreveport for the 1959 season. In 1960, Winder formed the Arkansas Travelers Baseball Club Inc. and led a public stock drive to buy the New Orleans Pelicans franchise.
