number of men who could not read
their military orders. Valuable time
had to be consumed in reading to them
the various military papers which it
was necessary for them to sign. We
were awakened to the fact that we had

RALPH PLAY
Greenleaf Twice Defeats
Veteran at Pocket
Billiards.
By GEORGE L. MORELAND.

The greatest game of pocket bill
lizards ever seen in Washington was
played last night at the Sherman
Billiard Parlors when the champ
ION. Ralph Greenleaf. defeated
Jerome Keogh 125 to II in in
nings.
The youngster was in excellent
stroke and 1t appears he could not
make a difficult shot-he never left
himself any. His position play was
that of master, while the way he
rolled the worries into the pockets
was a caution. They simply could
not escape the invitation to enter when
near the pockets.
His play during the third and
fourth inning was perfect A
jammed ball il the corner pocket
that caused him to miss a difficult
shot ended his first run Of 40, but
after Keogh missed a hard rail
shot. the champion came back and
ran 43 pretty points.

Had 1t not been for the conversa-
tion that Champion Canefax was
handing Greenleaf. he probably
would have run the game out
In the afternoon game both play
nrs put up excellent billiards. Both
had several high runs during the
contest. but Greenleaf finally won
after closing the game with a high
score. He captured the honors of
the game by n score of 125 to SO.

audience in a roar all during the
game. and it was with difficulty
that even Greenleaf with his two

The two players left last eve
