coune his way he went after everything
and soon brought the game to finish.

very strong game While the result was
In doubt, Doctor Campbelrs inveterate
safety play kept Mr.. Noland from tax
ing any chances whatever. In other WORDS,
he had to stick to the same game uhtii
he was in a position to take chance.
Doctor Campbelrs game was disap-
pointment to his many friends. Many close
observers thought he had an excehens
chance of winning from Mr.. Noland. and
bet their money that way. Mr.. Noland' s
run of three about the middle OF the game
was the blow that killed father. He start
ed on this time by getting away with the
rankest kind of a scratch-the only one
made by either man In the wnoie game.
After counting by a scratch. Mr.. Noiano
went on and made two more points. His
good luck continued to stick to him at this
stage, which had doubtless a tendency to
discourage Doctor Campbell. who missed
many a hard shot by the narrowest OF
margins and left natural three-cushion
billiard shot for his lucky opponent.
Mr. Noland and Frank Peterson are sched-
uled to play tonight. This ought to prove
one Of the prettiest games of the tourna-
ment. Mr.. Noland has not lost q game yet.
and his friends are prepared to bet all
kinds Of money that he will trim Mr.. Peter
