 Hoppe denied he had asked that the play of" and challenge match be played as one, since both prin- cipals were the same, asserting that he was no more fearful of meeting Cochran in two matches than in one.
 Boston was selected because of the attempt made by billiard enthusiasts to have the "play-off" held under their auspices, but too late after Chi cago had been chosen.
