SHERMAN vs.. WHEATLEY
Former Pocket Billiard Champion of
the World Agrees to Play
Big Match.

arrangements practically have been
completed for pocket billiard match
between Frank Sherman and George
Wheauey, the former once champion
of the world and the latter recog ognized,
in company with Sherman, as being one
of the two best players in Washington.
The match W!ll be fer the benefit of the
ambulance fund. Admission is to be
charged and every cent taken in is to
be donated for that purpose.
Frank Sherman agreed Yesterday te
meet Wheatiey in a special match. Two
blocks of which are to be played at the
Grand Central and two blocks at Sher-
mans. It is likely that the match will
take four nights, 156 balls each night.
No pocket billiard match staged here
in years will be sa attractive to local
followers of that sport. Frank Sher-
man was. and is, one of the most popu-
lar players in the country. though he
has been doing little of late in the way
of practice. Wheatley is a native

of the city for the last twelve years.
