He tried a desperate masSe which
missed the first ball. but came near
counting. In the fourth inning Coch-
ran IA lied on a long three cushion stroke
and horemans. after making q played
a spread drive along the left rail and
saw the cue go through small space
between the red and the rail.
Getting good opening for his fifth
inning Cochran soon had the balls under
control. Playing beautiful billiards,
featured by numerous long drives, he
operated lin the head section until he
had obtained Sc. Then the balls got
down near the lower right corner. One
shot returned them to the head section.
A miscue on his ninety-fourth stroke
stopped him. In the sixth inning, after
Cochran had made 9 and missed on
long two cushion shot, Hormans worked
hard until. at 20, he got the balls in
the upper left corner. At So. by a neat
single cushion stroke to overcome an
alignment close to the right rail. he
sent the objects into the lower left
corner. There he extended his scoring
to 81 and failed on a short two cushion
effort.
Cochran began the seventh inning
with the objects in the lower right
section. He quickly transferred them
to the head section, where between
nursing and numerous long drives he
obtained 40. Moving TO the lower sec
ton he continued to 103 and then missed
on a short draw. The last part of the
run, like the first, was featured by
long. accurate drives, which were regu-
larry applauded.
Masse shots Aplenty.
In the ninth Cochran gathered Sc.
ended by a wide two cushion effort.
and Horemans followed with sc, of
which 46 were made in the lower sec
ton. The other SO were compiled in
the middle of the table. At one period
he made four masse shots in succession.
In the thirteenth inning Horemans
made 3, the final shot being a won
derful masse. to cue which he had to
make a strenuous reach. On the next
stroke he made another reach, lost his
balance and failed to hit the cue ball
solidly enough to make a short shot.
II was costly slip, for Cochran
realized 81 from the leave. He made
81 at the head section and missed on
a three cushion around the table stroke.
A roll off, on a short single cushion
was all Horemans got from his next
chance. Cochran's next two innings de-
veloped 25 and "a. and made the totals
405 to 293 in his favor. A bump" ended
the run of "a.
Starting his seventeenth inning with
n long three cushion shot from the
lower right corner to the upper left
balk, on which the first ball had to
be hit lightly, Horemans had to work
carefully and hard TO reach 20. at which
he got the spheres under control In the
head section. At 81 he had them on the
line in the upper left corner. There
after he gave one of the prettiest and
most skillful exhibitions of balkline
ever witnessed.
Holding the balls on the left side line
or just outside the cross line Horemans
nursed delicately. and with masse
strokes overcame all obstacles until he
had scored 10. Then the balls got
apart. but a few drives brought them
again under control and he continued to
2o7. While making the last 80 points
Horemans perspired freely and be-
trayed anxiety.
