Former Billiard Champion Says First
Duty Is to His Family.

ST. LOUIS, April 3.-Willie Hoppe,
for many years 1872 balkline champion of
the world, has retired from the billiard
game, it was announced here by his man
ager, Il. b. Benjamin, upon their return
from Chicago, where Hoppe failed to re-
gain the title from Jake Schaefer, jr.
In a statement Mr.. Benjamin charged
that commercialism in the billiard game"
made it impossible for the former cham
pion to compete for his lost title within
Is months or two years.
primarily Willie feels that he has
reached the age where his first duty is
to his family" Mr.. Benjamin's statement
said. For nearly 10 years he has been
touring the world giving exhibitions.
Furthermore, he has been very dissatis-
fed with the manner in which the cham
piOnship contests have been conducted
during recent years"
Mr.. Benjamin declared that Il billiard
firm had ''commercialized the game, -
adding that the former champions recent
defeat by Schaefer had not stimulated
his decision to retire Hoppe and Ben
jamin will go to New York, where they
expect to make arrangements for the fu-
ture.
