Siberia were false.
Admiral Baron kato, senior Jap

said such an agreement was impossible,
for the Japanese cabinet, of which he
was member, had never given author

remarkable high run of lis. winning
the seventh match OF the series from
McVey. Bunnell ran up cl7 points to
McVey's 81.
A run OF li5 balls in one inning Is
believed to be the record and is an
unusual feat.
Bunnell trailed his opponent in the
first four matches Of the series but in
the last two games has taken the lead
from McVoy thru sensational high
runs and the belief is that he will
probably defeat McVcy in their las,
match at the Empire pool hall Friday
night, with another spectacular high
run.
Bunnclls score is now SIS against
McVey's sf points. giving the cham
pion a lead OF IS points. This is con-
sidercd n strong advantage to Bunneil
for the victory OF the I 900 point match
In their final game Friday night.
McVcy's high run was 40 in their
game last night and played a steady
consistent game. but Bunncll had
gathered 217 before Mcvey could click
off 81 of the worries.
In the final match Bunncil will have
to make his block OF l25 while McNcy'
will have to make up the IS points
lost last night and click off 103 points
