Bat Peterson Says Hopes
Victory Proves Billiards
Is for the Aged.

Il told You it was an old mans
game. =
Charlie Peterson, trainer Of willie
Hoppe. the man who practiced with
the champion and coached him in
preparation FOR the defense of his
worlds title at 1872 balkline against
Jake Schaefer, was speaking about
Hopes victory.
While the hundreds Of admirers
Of the titleholder were croWding
around Willie Hoppe to get peep
at the diamond medal, which The
Boy Wonder received as a result Of
his victory over SahGefer and which
is now HIS permanent property.
Peterson was diagramnning the
caroMs made by Hoppe in g book.
Peterson keeps q record o. all
the champions important shots and
the ones that he misses are drawn
in red, SO that Willie d0esn,t miss
them the next time.
Didn't tell YOU billiar9s was
an old mans gamer he asked, with
his head In his book Of diagrams.
1t Is supposed that he was re-
ferring to Hoppe. but why Hoppe
should be classed with the old men
IS not easy to see. To look at his
healthy, chubby face and his. boy.
sh figure it requires quite q stretch
of the imagination to regard Hoppe
as a candidate for the old mems
home.
But the Boy Wonder has been at
the top Of balIxline billiards Tor 50
many years that one might call him
the grand old man Of the game, as
PeterAon does, without inferring
that he is grand old man
For seventeen years now he has
held almost unbrOIxen possession OF
the worlds 1879 title. And vet he
is less. than ten years older than
schaef0r.
The champion was but q bow
when he won the 1871 title hack in
1906 and right now he looks hardly
any older than young men who are
his most formidable opponents
sSchaefeE, Cont Horemans. Coch-
ran. and Hagenlacher. There is no
telling how many more years he
may hold the 1872 crown.
