HOPPE OFFERS Odds

Will ng to Play 900
Points Apains, 1850 'or
Schaefer or Cochran
READY WHEN HIS
PRESENT lCUR EMS

William Hoppe. the balk line cham
pion, who now Is on tour with George
sutton, denies with yehemence that he
has avoided Jake Schaefer or welker
Cochran because OF fear as 10 the out
come OF games with those youngsters.
Hoppe declares that he has refused to
meet the challengers at the present time
solely because he Is making more
money on his exhibition tour than he
could earn In a match or tournament.
The champion promises that as soon as
his tour is ended he will be willing,
even eager, to meet one or both OF the
young gentlemen who covet his title.
Hopes manager supplements the
statement Of the champion with the as
sertion that the grand averages of the
tItleholder are so much superior TO
those Of the challengers that they really
have little basis for asking for matches.
The manager declares that II schaefer
or Cochran Is insistent on a match with
The champion at the close Of his tour
and will make il worth while financial
ly he Will play either OF them a match
on the basis OF 10000 points for the
challenger.
The manager concludes with the as
sertion that Hoppe now is at the top OF
HIS form as a player and that 20 one
else in the world has the remotest
chance Of taking the title away from
him.
