GARR|TY BEATS
 M'CARTHY 35-32
Winner Played Best Bil- lizards of Meet; SpearO
 Wins From Cobb

Playing by far the finest billiards y,t seen in the city championship three-cushion tourney at the Woos- ter, Bill Garrity scored surprise ?; to 32 win over Tom Mccarthy, who was the favorite to win the title. Bill was simply tnvincible in every department of his game and set a tournament record by running out his string in flfty-nine innings. .IcCarthy had few chances at naturals" as Garrity left him dif- ficult shots and the score of 35 to g does not indicate the splendid eff rt made by Tom to ward off de- feat.
 Same Score
 In another match Casper Spearo d. ieated Ty Cobb by a score of 35 to g. in a hard tough game which saw the lead change several times to make the result in doubt until the final innings Play will resume TresCay evening and four players still have chance for the title. They a. Tom Mccarthy, George Gear ir.', Casper Spearo and Ty Cobb and it is quite likely that the winner may be decided by playof of a u, for first place between two or more contestants.

Special elevators from Ponzi's Academy, which is in the same building, will carry the spectators to the scene of action.
 At a meeting of the contestants and officials Bob Stone of Water bury, Conn.,, and Sylvester Living ston of New York were approved as referees, thereby completing the final arrangements for what shapes up as the outstanding pocket bil- Hard competition in years.
 The sixty-six game schedule which will take ninteen days to play, will get underway at 8 o'clock tonight, with the defending titleholder, Jim- my Caras of Wilmington, Del, op- posing Fay Gamer of Vineland, N. J., at 8 o'clock. Immediately follow ing this match, Andrew PonN of Philadelphia, a former champion, will face Irving Crane of Livonia, N. Y.
 Night Games on Sunday
 Except on Sundays, when only two night games will be contested, there will be two contests every afternoon and evening until the final. Matinee flames will start promptly at 1:30 o'clock.
 In addition to the championship, the field ftwelve cue experts, re- garded as the strongest ever as- sembled, wiN be seeking the various prizes offered by the sponsors, Sportsmen,s Tournament, Inc. The winner will receive $500, with smaller amounts going to those nearest the top. Also the highest run and the best game will be worth an additional $l00 each. Each man has posted $250 forfeit.
 To retain the championship he annexed last year the 26-year old Caras will be called upon to face such stellar performers as Ralph Greenleaf of New York, thirteen time winner; Erwin Rudolph ot Cleveland, Ponz and Benny Allen of Kansas City, all former title- holders.
 Young Stars Threaten
 Even if Caras is able to dispose of the veterans there is always the possibility of an upset at the hands of one of the younger men. Gamer, Crane, Joe Diehl of Rockford, Ill.,, Marcel Camp of Detroit and Willie Mosconi of Philadelphia all hold high ratings. And Charles Seaback of Boston and Onofrio Lauri of Brooklyn, the pair who complete the field, are of proven ability. All games will be for 125 points each. In last years tourney the veteran Allen succeeded in running 125 balls at one stand and he has hopes of duplicating the feat. The championship record run is 126 made by Greenleaf some years ago, He scratched in his first inning and then hung up the new mark.
 Greenleaf yesterday was iStalled a slight favorite to win. He first won the crown at the age of 19. Ponzi rules second choice, with Rudolph third and Caras fourth.
