Taberski can play a rapid game
If he chooses, but he seldom so
elects because rapid play is usual
ly what the other fellow wants.
For this reason, regardless of
the wishes of antagonists and
spectators alike he reverts to his
own particular brand of game and
his contests often become tedious
and wearisome.
1t is believed that new rules for
pocket billiards will place a check
upon unwarranted delays in the
game.
