As usual NignauX found set-up and
worked it for ~, when he missed on
hard bank. He left Schaefcr a tough
break, but the little man went after It
around the table and got it. Another
shot and hard one, too, gave him
good position, and, with the
best playing he had yet done, he went on
with beautiful run. At forty-threc he
froZc to the red and banked successfully.

ward masse he counted, amid tremendous
cheering. Al 10 he again stuck fast 10

balls were spotted and he made the string

on very hard two-cushion
shot. NignauN was perceptibly
affected by this unlocked for
