Great Year in Billiard Snort.

The year of 1916 marked an cventful era in billiards, its close finding the gentleman's game in a healthier condition than ever before in history. Perhaps the quotation variety is the spice of life" hap oily fits the king of indoor pas times, but whether it is variety, competition, organization or just plainly the game itself that has caused it's boom the fact remains that billiards is at the height of its popularity.
 William F. Hoppe enters upon another year champion of the pro- fessional balk liners, as usual hold ing the titles at al lthree styles 1S:1 and 1892 and 14:1. His old foe George B. Sutton of Chicago was the only player who dared chal- Ienge him and Sutton met his GUS tomary defeat at St. Louis in their match on october % and 30 and November 1, the score ending 1,50C to sos after a one-sided contest.
 In the sharp contrast to the in activity of the balk line experts the three cushion and pocket champions and challengers were busy as bees the titles in both classes changine handa with such frequency that the

Les Darcy Sees Miske Win Bout

y
 Les Darcy, middleweight cham pion of the antipodes, occupied a ring side seat at the ten-round fight between Billy Miske, of St. Paul, and George (KnockouD Brown, of Chicago, before a Brook lyn club last Monday and watched the Minnesota man administer a beating to his opponent. The first two rounds went to the Chicagoan by shade, but Miske took the re- maining periods with comparative ease.
 The fight was of particular inter- est to the Australian champ because Iiske is mentioned as q likely oppo- nent for him.
 NIiske had the advantage in height, reach and five pounds in weight over Brown, but the latter withstood terrific punishment and was still fighting gamely when the hnal bell rang.
 Darcy's critical eye observed two things in particular upon which he frowned. These are coaching from the corners and smoking by the fans.
 "The arrangements here are rath- CT strange to me-" Darcy said. Both smoking and coaching from the corners are absolutely prohibited In Australia, 0oth are allowed here. The men in the ring must be weak ened by inhaling such smoke laden atmosphere"
 In another Brooklyn club Battling Levinsky cleyerly outpointed Gun boat Smith in a ten-round bout.
 Mike O'Dow, the St. Paul middle weight, scored a decision over John ny CKid) Alberts, of Elizabeth, N, J., in nine out of ten rounds. Their respective weights were 154 and 15O pounds.
 Johnny Coulon, the Chicago ban tamweight and former worlds cham pion, cleverly oIltpointed Joe Wag- ner, local bantam who defeated Coulon four years ago, in a ten round bout. Coulon weighed 112 pounds and Wagner 11Sh.

Moore and Taberski Great.

Moore and ta0ersRl GTeaV. The performance of George Moore of New York and Frank Taberski of schnectady, respectively three-cush- ion and pocket worlds champions, stand out brilliantly and mark the title holders as champions of the highest degree. Moore regained the coveted Brunswick emblem he lost to William B. Huey of Chicago little more than a year ago rom Hugh Heal of Toledo.
 Charles McCourt made name for himself when he beat Ellis and Mau- pome out in a driving finish for the interstate Three Cushion League championship. All three were prac- tically tied when McCourt went on the road for his final and most lm- portant swing around the circui. He had four games left to play and he won all of them in clean-cut style which gave him the league ti- tie. Later he made his triumph complete by defeating Ellis for the worlds championship which he lost to the first challenger, Hugh Heal of Toledo.
 Edward w. Gardner, the famous Jersey man, proved that a devoted ibilliardist improves with age by coming back at 56 and annexing the national championship for the fifth time. The pocket amateur title fell to the lot of J. Howard Shoemaker of New York, while another New York amateur, Williag Yiertel, cap tured the first national tournament held for novice or straight rail play CTS.
