He then pulled himself together, and in
the twenty-ninth. thirty-fifth and fortieth
innings made good runs, paving the way
for his record breaker in the forty-f1rst
inning. When he tied the worlds record
the spectatos applauded vociferously. but
when he finished with the biggest run ever
made at cushion caroms. either in practice

spectators and was one Of the heartiest in
his applause.
