By the Associated Press. HICAGO, November 20.— Welker Cochran of San Fran- cisco, again ruled as King of the world's three-cushion billiard players today. Willie Hoppe of New York for nearly two generations the idol of American billiard fans, failed to realize his long ambition—to annex the three-cushion title along with other billiard cham- pionship crowns he has worn. In the title game last night, the 37- year-old Cochran defeated Hoppe 50 to 46 in a game that went 45 innings. In a dramatic finish Cochran went to | the table in the 45th inning trailing | 43 to 46. The San Francisco player, | calling on all his billiard wizardry, cut loose with an unfinished run of seven, that returned him the championship he lost to Johnny Layton of Sedalia, Mo, a year ago. His run of seven was the high run of the match. Hoppe's best effort was six. by RS. RALPH W. PAYNE is going to have little time for anything else but handling golf business next year.

LOUIS, November 20 —Wheth- er a good boxer can whip a wrestler remained an unsettled question today, but there was | no doubt what a good wrestler can do to a hit-and-miss slugger.
