PROGRESSING.

The National Billiard Association
Of America from now on is going
to sanction American tournaments
and keep a permanent record Of
records that are made.
It's a good move. It'll put the
green felt game on a more substan-
tial basis. Up to the present time
there has been nothing to hinder
a player from claiming any record
he wanted to-and probably getting
away with It. For no official records
have been kept.
Now records can be established
only IN sanctioned tournaments.
The move comes at an appropri-
ate time. For the early winter will
see three national tournaments, the
three-cushion tourney now under
way at Pittsburgh. the pocket bill
lard championship beginning Oct.
II at Philadelphia. and the 1872
balkiine tourney beginning In Chi
