The visit of Horemans was great thing
for billiards.
Another great thing for the game was
the closing OF that academy in San Fran
cisco where Schaefer and Cochran were
devoting their time to three cushions and
red ball. With that place closed Schaefer
and Cochran had 10 apply themselves to
balkline or quit billiards. They took 10
ballSline and made wonderful progress.
That was convincingiy demonstrated
in their matches with Horemans. on the
last day of his match with Horemans
Schaefer played the best billiards I ever
saw. He certainly qualified to play In
championship tournaments and matches.
Horemans and Cochran were improved
by match competitions.
"Tn their last match Horemans made
$500 points. with an average OF so 50-95,
while Cochran made 4.616 points and
averaged 4s 56-95 SO II looks as IL we

CHALLENGE MATCHES
AGAIN IN BILLIARDS
Promoters Decision VIII
Bring About Former Method.
ny THOMAS J. GALLAGHER.

After this year professional billiard
champions will have to defend their title
against challengers anu when challenged
viii have TO play in either sixty or ninety
days. DR.. III. ID. Jennings. who. along
with Wizard" Schaefer. father OF the
present expert. Jacob Schaefer. learned
how to use a cue In Leavenworth, Kan,
and who for severa. years has been
either a contender for the billiard cham
pionshlp of the Crescent Athletic Club OF
Brooklyn and periodically the champion
of that organization, is authority for this
statement.
DIR. Jennings says his informant Is
Charles p. Miller vice-president of the
Brunswick- alke-Colender Company,
who IS now in Chicago attending the an
nual meeting of that organization. and
therefore is not available here for a per-
sonal interview.
From 1868, when the first champion
ship tournament was held. until the tour
naments held in the fall of 1919" said
the Doctor yesterday, every professional
billiard title was subject to challenge
Then the scheme OF having champion
ships exempt from challenge was intro
duced. Those championships ran for one
year and were TO be defended IN annual
tournaments. Hoppe won the title in the
tournament OF 1919 and renewed his
hold on II In the tournament OF 1920
Meanwhile he could not be forced to play
matches and we have not had any cham
pionship matches.
when Charley told me about the in
novation | told him ID was q mistake
that II would stop first class compe-
tition for al least a year, make first
class players lot OF exhibition per-
-. ~ .f
to practice. lie contended that nobody
would challenge Hoppe | agreed with
him that II players were deprived OF
the chance to challenge they would not
challenge.
"But insisted that II given a chance
they might challenge, and IL they put
up money TO back their challenges and
lost II Hoppe would be benefited and
billiards would be stimulated What
/ said came true. For nearly two
years wc have had no professional
matches and professional billiards was
practically dead until Horemans came
over from Belgium.
THAT series of matches between
Schaefer, Cochran and Horemans
changed opinions and will change con-
ditions governing professional billiards.
They certainly impressed Charley and
changed his views for he said to me:
Hereafter whenever the Brunswick
-Coilender Company promotes a
billiard tournament and donates an cn-
blem of championship that emblem Will
be subject Ia challenge. When We de-
cided TO lei champions hold their titles
for year there was practically only
one balkine player qualified for titular
competition. Now wy have four
Hoppe, Schaefer, Cochrsk and Horemans.
