sHUFFLEBoARD SHOTS.

The game of Switchboard which was
to have been played last evening be
tween the members OF the GLOBE and
Pioneer Press teams at the Switchboard
club was postponed in consequence of
the departure of Mr.. Black, skip OF the
GLOBE team and the wearer of the
medal, for Washington. The game will
not be played until bis return from the
inaugural ceremonies.
There is considerable betting on the
outside among friends OF RoXey Reber
and john Ahern, contestants for the
championship of the city in the local
Shuttieboard competition, as to who
will be the winner. Although Ahern is
"a points ahead OF Reber the entire
series will consist of 525 points for the
winner. This does not make the score
such formidable one at the present, as
only one game has been played. The
second game of the series will be played
tomorrow evening, in the rooms of the
Switchboard club over the Reber cafe.
Odds are laid by some OF the euthusl-
aStic members Of the ShufilehOard club
in favor of Reber. their champion. 1t
is expected that there will be a large
crowd present TO witness the game.
