chanp. ouship tournament yesterday at
,ernoou defeating Charles Heddon Of
n,Nlgilc. Mich, 400 To 203. That the
vestcrncr was in nothing like the form
no showed against Joseph Mayer on
wednesday was evident early In the
match, but more than anything else bad
Mrk kept his score down.
U.ddou lost many chances to score
poin.s and TO get into long run by
Missing shots by the narroweet possible
margin In many cases he lost tries when
a.s cue ball took "a bad roll or just barely
sas kissed out of the way. Whenever
This did happen Gardner almost invariably
vas left with a setup which gave him n
ehaace for creditable cluster. And.
strange 10 say, when Gardner was shoot
ne nearly every time an unlocked for
Hiss happened along II worked out favor
aby for him
The visitor seemed TO have plenty OF
trouble with the table too. The cushions
we're too fast for him and he had a hard
time Judging speed. . on one stroke he
would lose out by Cutting a little too
heavily. and on the next when he tried
10 remedy matters by soften!ng his stroke
he frequently failed to get enough power
into his stroke.
Gardner on the other hand had almost
perfect control. but except when he made
MS high run of - he did not use II TO
the BEST advantage. for he was inclined
to be too cagy in hts play. This run. by
n. way. was the result of careful nursing
and pretty balklinc pls1 The ex cham
nioa had a good chance TO 20 over the
century mark, for he had the worries
placed well. but he missed an easy draw
shot on his ninety seventh stroke.
