added. "and rather than that / should
prefer he did not play billiards at all.
Accordingly Jake Junior will go
into the establishment of an intimate
friend of the late champion at Chicago
and Will study to be an expert drafts
man. In the meantime the boy will
practice billiards at Charley Schaefer's s
