"pOCKET billlnrfli, which is slang for that rooiI old game of pool, Is or are
" now bdnK plnyed right here In our city by Morris Fink and nine stranger
to sec which is the champion or something like that. A lot of pool sharks beg
pardon, pocket billiard experts are pitted against each other every afternoon
and evening at the Parkway Building, each endeavoring to prove before an
extromely cash audience that he is in n class by himself when it comes to Hop
ping the nine balls into tho side pocket or sinking a long shot in the far corner.
This, of course, is very in-trickit, but that accounts for the presence of the
harks I mean experts.
Ever sec a pool tournament another error a pocket billiard champion
ship? Of course not, because this is the first ever held within the coniincs of
Philadelphia. It's great sport because you sit in n well-heated hall; occupy
comfortable chairs and just get an eyeful of the happenings. The tournament
Is held in nn amphitheatre, built on the order of the Olympia A. A. Bleachers
ro built from the ground up on all four sides and in the center is a ring, which
surrounds the pool tnblc I refuse to call it n pocket billiard links.
Xow this ring is a noble institution. There are four posts, but instead of
rores, they are connected by n relic of the past a brass rail which evidently
did 'noble service when brass rails were popular. Inside nre two chairs which
are occupied off and on, to say nothing of now and then, when the con
testants arc not contesting. In nnotlier corner is a small table which sup
ports a jug of pure water nnd a can of talcum powder, just to prove that
the Bport is not rough. Nobody swings n towel and the referee is n very
polite person who never wains the .nen not to hit in the clinches, nor does
ho inflict any penalties for offside play. Honest, it's a nice, genteel performance
and nobody gets hurt or even takes time out.
The referee, who happens to be Charley Peterson, of St. Loolc, does his
work well and seems to enjoy it but that's not strange because anybody would
bo happy if he had an excuse to get away from St. I.ooie. Charley, the referee,
introduces the principle, racks the balls, sometimes counts up as high as forty
nine without turning a hair, nil of which takes considerable cnduinncc.
OETE THE IiEF. also tcalks a couple of hundred miles around the
table carrying a bridge in one hand and a basket in the other.
The basket is introduced every time there is a misdeal or somebody
fumbles.
Referee Pete Obliges With Introductions
QUITE a number of gentlemen who have nothing to do of an nfternoon were
present when the championship tourney was called to order yesterday.
Michael Murphy, who knows everything about oil wells, pool and other forms
of athletic endeavor, sat in the press box and applauded when the bell rnng.
Mr. Peterson stepped forward and did the announcing.
"In this corner, ladies and gentlemen," he said, "is James Maturo, of
Denver."
Jim got up and took a bow.
"In this corner," continued the referee, waving nn arm haphazardly,
"is Morris Pink, of Philadelphia."
Morris, who was among friends, also acknowledged the introduction. This
was only a mutter of form because the local player knew everjbody in the
place.
Then the players lagged for the break, or whatever it was, and somebody
said Maturo won. That meant Fink had to shoot first, which was a lucky
break for our entry. If he hadn't taken that first shot it would lnve taken a
long time for tho spectators to find out he was playing.
Morris retired to his corner, assumed a comfortable pose and Maturo
started to shoot. He caromed the ivory pills into the pockets with reckless
abandon and soon had a run of 10. He tried a very easy shot after that, but
the ball developed a hangnail or something and hung on the pocket, refusing
to go in.
But Morris evidently was enjoying a hlesta, for he stepped up, shot,
missed and returned to his corner, where he again assumed that comfortable
pose.
It isn't hard to be a pool shark. Gosh, there it is again I menu a
pocket billiard expert. All you need is a sweater coat with silk sleeves, a
comfortable chair and a cue. You hold the cue as a guy in the back row of
the chorus holds a spear nnd try to appear interested when your opponent
starts to mop up everything on the table. This takes practice, but it can
be done.
TUSORRIS, icho had two shots in one hour, performed very well,
'" but evidently teondcrcd why he didn't go out to see a movie or
bring a book with him to pass away the time,
rampage and that gent simply could not miss.
Fink, Grqat Player, Gets Poor Start
THIS is not n slam at Fink; nor nre we trying to belittle his prowess as a
player. Morris is one of the best in the country, but got off to a bum
start, and had to stand on the side lines while his opponent went through
with a record high run. It would have been the same had Greenlenf or
Taberski been stacked against the wizard from Denver.
Maturo breezed along nnd soon had thirteen to his credit. The four
teenth shot was a long one to the corner pocket, but Jim made it and before
any one knew it, his run had amounted to thirty-two.
"What's tho record?" I asked Mike Murphy.
"It's 71," replied Mike, "made by De Oro in n tournament some years
go. But don't worry. Walt until Fink starts. He's a wonder. I saw him
run 40 once."
The Denver expert tore off a difficult combination for nis thirty-third
counter and got into trouble. The only shot on the table was a difficult cut
shot to the side pocket, but the ball flapped in nnd the run continued. Tho
forty-eighth seoie wns made when the ball was at one end of the table and the
object ball at the other. Maturo made n great shot, hitting the side cushion
first, and dropping tho ball into the pocket. The next was easy, but on the
fiftieth, Jim tried a combination and the ball stopped rolling just at the edge
of the hole. That sent him to his corner.
Greatly refreshed after his long rest, Fink went to bat. The score wns
only G5 to 0 against him nud there was no chance of the game being called
because of darkuess or wet grounds. He made five in a row, but the balls
Tvcre rolling badly and on the sixth shot he had to play a safety. The only
thing wrong with the shot was that it wasn't safe. Maturo made one and
then (.elected a ball out of the bunch, took n windup nnd slammed it iuto the
corner pocket for a goal. That spread the ivories all over the table and he
mopped up an even dozen before mUsing. Thut made the score 77 to 5 and
JBiat. uy.
t(MOW watch rink," said Mike Murphy, "Those odds mean
i" nothing. That boy is a wonder, I saw him run JjG once,"
Maturo's Big Lead Is Cut Doivn
T7UNK really played some great pool after that. He got some of the breaks
JP of the game and pulled up steadily, cutting down the tremendous lead. He
had to work hard, because the balls continued to roll badly, he was not ac-
. Nistoracd to the table and every shot was a hard one. He tore off runs nf u
' j Ifl, 10 and 13, and nfter the third inning
.. an tn rn nut and wniie ue was inuKing
The final count was 125 to 71, which is a wonderful Bhowing against 'such a
handicap. He will be heard from in the tournament, and the defeat was
nothing to be ashamed of.
"Just watch Fink," insisted Mike Murphy, "ne's good, I tell yout
Why once I saw him run "
But Layton and E. I. Ralph, the Hightstown, N. J., barber, entered the
Srtna to put on their act and Michael's statement was drowned by chcere from
the Jersey contingent.
This was a slower match than the first, Lay ton winning In extra innings
,? Mti-thirti -one. to be exact. However, there was some great nlayine and It wna
ifcft' Jck and neck, nip and tuck and everything else. Ralph took the lead at the
Hart, lost it in me nintn inning wnen .unyion scoreu aj, Dut came back
' strong and forged to the front in the fifteenth, leading by the score of 70 to 08.
Klph, however, was off his game, missed many easy shots and was defeated

Layton will be the most popular player in the tourney before it is over.
tie has all kinds of nerve and will try anything. Time and again he slammed
lata the balls, taking long chances, but getting by with it. Some of the other
contestants might outplay Mm, but they never will outgame him.
The tournament promises t a D's success. The hall in which it is
layed is large and roomy, everybody can see what's going on and the sport

Tho Germnntown basketball team
owners are determined that the subur
banites nre going to stay up around
first place in the Eastern League bas
ketball race. Frank Poth, formerly
connected with tho North Phillies, is
now with Oermantown, and through
him two new men will nppear in to
night's clash against De Neri nt the
Auditorium, Chelten avenue and Chow
stiect
At forward will be Garry Schmcelk.
He is no newcomer to the followers of
basketball. During the 1015-10 East
ern League campaign he played a num
ber of games with Jasper. Garry was
so good that he chased n couple of the
best guards almost crazy trying to stop
him from caging goals, and then one
night decided to quit nil of a sudden.
The other, who will play nt guard.
is Nat Holman, a player of repute. He
was scheduled to be on hand Inst week,
nnd would have been except for the
fact that he received n wire telling him
not to come, which he believed was
from Poth, only to find his mistnkc too
late.
Tho Sedran-Friedinan Fiasco
Harney Sedran nnd Marty Friedman
had been announced ns "signed" by
North Philadelphia. They put in nn
appearance at Moose Hall last night,
but nre farther from signing thau they
ever were, nnd, as regards terms with
the North Phils, "Muddle" sajs they
have never even been discussed.
The stars say they will not don a
uniform until the Camden mnuage
ment pays them for the games they
have missed. Pay was demnnded for
eight games, at the rate of 530 each.
This would amount to $4S0, counting
the salary for both players.
The nlayers are now with Passaic, in
the Interstate League, nnd Albany, in
the New York State, and leading both
leagues.
Suggy With Tlills
The deal off, there was nothing for
Lou Sugarman to do but to play with
the North Phillies. He is said to have
worked with the understanding that he
goes to De Neri when he desires, and
the manager of the North Phils is cred
ited with giving his consent, if Manager
Mvers hands over to him Players Dark,
Rierh nnd Dehnert. (And Myers has a
game to play tonight, too.)
A came of basketball was played and
a good time had by all. Tho contest
was preceded by the announcement that
the players would not play. It was
a nlp-and-tuck affair nnd was won by
Camden. Score, 'J8-27. The play was
the fastest of the season, and on more
than one occasion the players on both
sides were completely exhausted.
Dolln's Goal Wins

minutes turned n Camden defeat into

contingent wns ahead at 27-2(1. The

"VOU talk about rivalry in the big
college tiiangle Yale, Harvard
and Princeton, well jou never saw ntn
rivalry if you haven't seen Consho ,
hocken and Phoeniwllle play their nn
nital football game. Why, those birds go j
at each other, tooth, toenail and cleat !
The way those linemen hatter each other
up reminds you of the days when the
young Komnn Adonises, or whatever
they werV, patted the red brawn of
Rnnrtnnuo 0...1 i.!. .-!,,. ... ....
, ....,., ,, m3 Kiuuintoriai athletes
and bet their (-esterces on tho skill nnd

ers." Thus eloouentlv and historically did
Bert leabsley, Conshohocken halfback
and son of many alma maters, depict
the gridiron reel thnt will he displayed
nt popular pi ices next Saturday after
noon in the high school jard at'Norris
town. Conshohocken nnd Phoenixvilie have
not met since pre-war days. Their
last contest wns in 1010. Saturday
they will meet agaiu, each bent on set
tling old scores. The rivalry of which
Bert speaks has existed in malignant
form for fifteen years. Although the
Conshohocken eleven hns borne thnt
name for only five seasons, thnt organi
zation was preceded by the old Kcllanee
team that formerly battled nnmmllv
with the Union Club, of Phoeniwllle."
Both of these teams hnve been look
ing forward to this game Saturday
nil season and to a certain extent have
been preparing for it for weeks. This
means that when the whistle blows
in Norristown at 2:30 p. m., Saturday,
both elevens will be in the pink of
phjsicni perfection. Both will be
ready to put up a fight thnt will be
worth going all the way from Sixty
ninth street on the P. & W. to see.
nud theie wllJie many to go from
here.
Thousands of fans who nre interested
in independent football have been kept
away from the games this year be
cause of the conflict with the frays at
Franklin Field, but now that the Bed
and Blue has played its last 1010 con
test, many of these fans will journey
to Norristown for the game Saturday.
It is difficult to get a line on tin
compuintie strength of Conshohocken
nnd Phoenixvilie because their sched
ules did not include a common foe.

T)ETEY HERMAN'S knockout record
In Philadelphia since his debut here
against Louie Tcndlcr, February 28,
101(1, is still intact. Not a single K. O.

tho New Orleans boxer, not as a mero
contender for the title when the crown

Kiddo Williams, nor since nnnexlng said

doesn't have to be a knockcrout in order
to prove he is a real champion.
Last night at the Olympia it looked
as if Herman was doomed to ruin his
perfectly clean unknockout record. Be
