Linton has fast team and is prac.
tically unbeatable on its own floor,
fans say. The players have learned
to gauge their shots SO that they are
able to drop in both long and short
ones easily.
Ten men made the trip to Linton:
Jarvis, Phil Hclbling, Luther, Huff,

HOPPE IS AGAIN
 BILLIARD CHAMP
Veteran Cue Artist Finishes Brilliantly to Beat Schaeier

New York, Jan. R}-The famil- jar figure of Willie Hoppe held forth at the top of the 1S.2 balkline bil- Hard world again today in the glory of remarkable triumph.
 Toppled from the pinnacle two years ago by Jake Schaefer of Chi cago, the 39-year- r-old veteran came back last night with brilliant finish to pull the mantle from the shoul- ders of Erich Hagenlacher defend ing title-holder. in a heart breaking final block sprint, 1,50O to 1887.
 For five hours the two players dueled for supremacy in what vet eran experts described as the most masterful exhibition ever seen in the metropolis. It was not battle for spectacular stroking. But for the sensational runs and high block aver ages, observers said the match never had been equalled here. with Hagen- lacher lighting to overcome the challenger's Hotpoint second block lead and Hoppe battling with legal grimness 10 hold on.
 Only six innings were required by Hoppe to complete his triumph, but in those six frames he crammed one of his greatest displays of tenacity and versatility in his 26 years as q a. star. Twice Hagenlacher more than wiped out the advantage which Hoppe had piled up Thursday night with marathon spurts, and twice the veteran, refusing to be shaken off, went out and won back his lead to | close finally with clinching cluster | of 41 for the crown.
 By his victory, Hoppe gained a crown he had previously held over an almost unbroken stretch of seven- teen years. Schaefer, who de- | throned him two years ago, lost and won back the title in the matches with Edouard Horemans of Belgium before finally succumbing to Hagen | lacher less than year ago.
 With first turn at the table last night as a result of an unfinished run of 43 from the second block. Hoppe was able to gather only 23 caroms. The run put Hagenlacher 1S3 points behind but the former German star, gathering the spheres 1 deftly, proceeded in his first visit at the table to amaze the gallery with a string of 2S2 points.
 Hoppc, with the balls spread, could collect only In his half. and once more Hagonlacher pushed off into stretch of machine-like strok- ing, keeping the balls under master | full command for cluster of 105.
 Here Hoppe opened his great drive
 against the champion. Keeling off
 IS from a bad leave, he gave the
 champion lone carom in the next
 inning, and then tore off 2S6 for the
 highest squirt of the match.
