There is not a white hope tn sight who has a ghost of a show of robbing this young wizard of his laurels, The final acore 0 to 301, with an average of 2214-21, but those figur give no adequate idea of the ease with which it was really won.

Ie complained that the nape on the cloth was unusually short, making the table so fast that the balls would run away from him. He had been practicing on @ Jong nape cloth and the sudden change, he said, was his undoing. Still, Hoppe worked on the same cloth an@ there was no unfair advantage. Hoppe jumped into a running t fm the fourth inning before the crowd had got through checking their c stunt, by the way, an: He got the dalla in the corner, where Sutton had left them after missing an easy draw, and took | the bit in teeth, It was a@ little early for Hoppe to mak spectacular run, but he grabbed tl by the nape of the neck right | then and there and didn't turn loose until he had shaken off @ run of 117, which proved to be the high water mark of the evening. Champion Wiille missed hie 118th shot on @ one-cushion caron across the table while trying to make a long drive of the object ball. Hoppe for some reason ‘was weak on that particular shot all evening. It broke up three of his threat- ened long runs. SUTTON’S OLD TIME CUNNING LACKING.
