Willie Hoppe, champion of the world at 1&2 balkline billiards, like the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt and the Prince of Wales, has discovered that popubirity and greatness have their penalties. Some time ago the cue wizard suf- fered from a Gn ae strained liga- ment in the right shoulder which made it difficult for him to execute masse’ shots in the international tourn- ament a year ago After the tournament, Hoppe started on a tour of the Middle West giving exhibitions of his skill in the rineipal cities.

B. Ben- jamin, his manager, The latter didn’t wait to pack a grip but jumped aboard ,the first train to St. Louis. There lie discovered that Hoppe had been shaking hands from three to four hundred times every day. Ben- jamin stopped it immediately and put Hoppe in the hands of a doctor and an expert masseur who soon cleared up the trouble, Since then no one has been allowed to shake the cham- pion’s hand. Hoppe's arm has at various times been insured by Lloyds of | London for $100,000. r _—_—— SARAZEN’S GRIP? Champion Explains Why” Het U Interlocking.
