clash with the racing at Aqueduct and

sanctions the sport In this state under

Many OF the local horsemen petitioned
the Maryland Jockey club TO hold it's
spring meeting beginning April J. in
order to provide them the opportunity
TO race their horses at Pimlico and then
ship them here in time for the opening
OF the local season. But the officials
of the Pimllco track refused to accede
10 this request, saying that the latter
part OF April was more suitable to their
patrons than any early date.
Under this decision. either the PlmlIco

WINTER RACING IS

turned cast from n tour Of the western,

after his general round OF inspection

no room for doubt that winter rae

ward that the layers of odds had to
give suicidal prices; fourth: 1t has
been proved that cold weather may

which struck the track this winter.
Now, with all those doubts in my
mind, / was Just preparing TO say that

ment.
True, Mr.. Butler is interested in the
track. But then he is not the kind of
sportsman to say a thing when he
doesn't believe it. Here's the very
interview, this is what he said:
Turfmen need not worry over the
future of winter racing. We intend
to make Juarez the mecca Of the cold
season meetings. There is no question
of success. We are going to give liberal
purses; we are going to have accommoda-
tions Just as good as Jacksonville pro,
vldes and we will build club house
for owners which will cost close to a
quarter of a million Of dollars There
will be no interference from officials
and bookmakers will give the longest
odds possible. Special trains in the
tnture will be run from various points
in tho United States at the beginning
and end of the season.

be drawn back and forth more than a
few times and this only for the purpose
Of assuring freedom Of movement and
accuracy of aim.
Maintenance of an even temper is an
absolute essential to successful play,
That is true of almost any branch of
sport, but applies with the greatest
force to billiards. The player who loses
his temper is lost. If player permits
any incident or disconcerting act by
an opponent to irritate him, his play
suffers at once, and the chances for
his defeat are excellent.
1t is a bad plan TO play too many
styles of billiards. A PLAYER should
stick to one style of game, for by scat.
tering his efforts, he gains proficiency
in no style. a professional practicing
for an 1872 contest, will play only that
game, as even 1871 is so different il
would tend TO disarrange his play. And
man practicing for a balk line match
would not think Of playing three cush-
ions.
A billiard player should avoid VIC
lent exercise or anything calculated to
harden his muscles Pliahle, flexible
muscles are what the billiardist requires
and his exercise should be of the light
est with plenty of fresh air, pedestrian
ism and sleep.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1910-01-23

ing. Naturally, while bending over the
table to reach the cue ball in diff
cult position, a player is at a disad-
vantage, for it puts a strain on certain
muscles, tending to render the attitude
unsteady But In majority of shots,
where the cue ball is within easy reach,
there is no good reason why the player
sition, calculated TO give him the free
use of all his arm aud back muscles,
and enable him TO hit the ball with the
requisite force and precision.
Men like VignauX, Scbaefer and Ives
were noted for the easy grace Of their
attitudes at the table, and the freedom,
accuracy and delicate precision Of their
strokes II is impossible for Il player
to become proficient who has a strained,
rigid and uncomfortable position at the
table Such an attitude will assured
ly interfere with the accuracy of the
stroke, result in miscues and generally
demoraliZe a player The importance
therefore of the correct position at the
table can readily be appreciated
No player should use too long a
bridge, for that puts an added strain
accuracy Of aim. The bridge should be
measured according to vision OF the
player, and anyone should be able to
Judge Just how far from the cue ball
to make the bridge.
The stroke should be clean and 90
straight through, and this applies to
any kind of a shot, draw or follow.
By a clean stroke I mean one in which
the cue follows the ball, without any
restrictive Jerk of hesitancy. That is
the only kind of stroke that will bring
ultimate success.
Another error of execution is too
much fiddling with the. cue, previous
to striking the ball, This is not only an
annoyance to the onlookers, but it is
an impediment to the player
The best way to avoid tiresome feel
ing is to have the shot studied out be-
fore the bridge is formed. If the situa-
tlon is complicated it is better to study
it out while standing erect and before
makinq tho hridnn The cue shnrld N At

his natural one, 1t is q serious error
to copy the stroke of another player,
because the muscular and nervous make
up of one player is dissimilar to that
of any other, and their strokes must
necessarily differ. A player should,
therefore, hit the ball with just the
amount of force that he feels is neces-
sary to send it to the proper distance.
A large, muscular man will neces-
sarily have to tone down his stroke,
while a player of less strength will
use more force, But in all cases, the
player will graduate his stroke to suit
the play, and imitation of another IS
stroke will surely compllcatc the style
and retard the progress of the beginner
Another essential to successful play
is the selection of a proper cue. Some
players find out what size and weight
of cue is used by leading player, and
select one like it. This is a mistake.
Only on the basis of two players being
equal in all physical respects, could
they use the same weight cue, or the
same size tip A player must pick out
proper weight and size, No one but
the player himself can decide that point
He knows instinctively whether the cue
is too heavy or too light, and whether
the butt has the proper handle, A
player should keep experimenting till
he gets a cue that completely fills all
his requirements and then stick TO it.
Constant changing of cues is an indi-
cation that the player is out of form.
and looks searchingly at the cue every
time he misses, depend on it there IS
something the matter with his stroke
and style rather than with the cue. IF
man has a correct method of play and
other qualifications, depend on il he
will not have much trouble in selecting
a cue to do the work with.
Attitude at the table is point that
must be taken into consideration by
the player who expects to become pro.
ficient in the great game, Every player
anyone can avoid the error of stiff or

Hoppe Warns Beginners Not

Players.
GAMES SHOULD NOT BE
MINED AT ANY TIME
Keen Eye, Pliable Muscles and
an Even Temper Are
Necessary.
BY WILLIE HOPPE.

The success of a billiard player de
pends to a large extent on tho ac-
quirement Of correct style, both as to
attitude, stroke and execution. To be
sure, player must have, as ground
work, keen eye, plenty of nervous
force, pliable muscles, control OF tenn
per and enthusiasm. If player pos
sesses these qualities, and then in adj
dition has courage and correct methods,
there is no reason why he should not
achieve marked success. 1t is i'm.
portant that proper style should be
learned early in players career, be-
cause it is difficult, if not impossible,
TO eradicate peculiarities and manner
isms that once become fastened on a
player.
The first thing that young player
should be taught is how TO bridge cor
rectly, as faulty manner of holding
the cue is calculated to render, inef-
feotive the efforts Of man who would
otherwise perform very creditably. In
best. Lay the left hand on the table
bed, with the knuckles slightly raised,
so as to form an arch and give steadi-
ness. Then raise the thumb, making
crotch between it and the first finger,
in which the cue is rested. Take the
butt of the cue lightly in the fingers,
but do not close the hand tightly on
It,. In preparing for the stroke, move
the cue backward and forward a few
times to make sure that there is q free
movement. There should be a supple
movement OF the wrist, as any rigidity
of the wrist OF forearm is sure to in
terfere with the stroke and destroy
its accuracy.
As to stroke, every player must use
