Billiard Champs

THE National Billiard association,
i now busy on plans which call for
national amateur tournaments in
pocket billiards, straight-ral and
three-cushion, recently announced
its recognized worlds champions in
those three fields of billiard play.
WeIker Cochran of San Francisco,
Calf, is recognized as the king of
the balkline billiard players. Ac-
cording to Clyde A. Storer, presi-
dent of the very active N. B. A,
Cochran won the last worlds balk-
line tournament sponsored by the
association and still is regarded as
champion by that official group.
The N. B. A. places the pocket bill
lard crown on the brow of Jimmy
Caras of Wilmington, Del, while the
three-cushion title belongs to Joe
Chamaco of Mexico. Chamaco won
the angle game title last winter,
finishing far ahead of nine other
billiard masters in a round robin
tournament played in nine cities.
In addition to the proposed ma
tional amateur meets, the N. B. A.
plans worlds title professional COM
petition in pocket billiards and three
cushion this coming season. Storer
expects $4,000 simon pure amateur
cuemen will compete in the pocket,
straight-rail and three-cushion bill
lizard tournaments, working their
way up through local, state and Sec
tional play to the national playoffs.

Diamond Hero

THE courage of Tom Sunkel,
l. rookie Cardinal southpaw pitch
er, has thousands of St. Louis fans
cheering for him every time he
makes a mound appearance.
Sunkel is practically blind in his
left eye, the result of an injury suf-
fered % years ago when he was four
years old. His eye was saved, but
he was left with little better than
haIf-normal vision.
Showing his courage, he did not
allow this to interfere with his fu-
ture. He went ahead and played
good enough baseball to become a
member of the Cardinal organiza-
ton. Last year he ended success
full career in the minors by winning
81 games and losing five with At
lanta.
In Atlanta his condition became
worse. The Cardinals recalled him
and had him examined by eye spe-
cialists, who agreed that an opera
ton would be fruitless.
Despite his affliction, Sunkel re-
Gently pitched a two-hit game and
has a creditable 1889 record with
the Cards. He admits his control is
a bit bothered, and that he has to
guess where the plate is when he
throws, but is quite confident of his
ability to pitch winning baseball.
Sunkel expects no quarter from
opposition. And would not welcome
it.
He's a bali player, first, last and
always.

Summer Reaches Washington
When Congress Leaves Town

Observation-Disclosures
w almost over for most of
America, but for Washington
it's just started. Moon, sun and
climate to the contrary, the ma
TONS capital knows only one
unfxed period of summertime

ers of both houses of congress
bang their adjournment CAV
els and send the laundering
herd of legislators back to

But by the same token summer
come when it may-brings new in
fux to Washington. It is then that
tourist business reaches its peak,
drawing thousands of summer-vaca-
ton, Christmas-bills-fnally-paid-of
visitors.
But modern Washington summers
have lost the out-to-lunch touch that
once made the city haven for those
who sought escape from the mad
ding crowd. Since 1882 huge crop
of new administrative offices has
grown up, keeping much of the city's
population busy without letup. Once,
in the dear dead days, all govern
mental offices automatically adopted
a shorter work day Immediately aft
er congress adjourned. Even to-
day, despite the growth of new bu-
reaus, longer lunch hours and brief
CT days are the rule.
Investigators Stay On.
Still another harsh note breaks
the Potomac's stiffness this sum-
mer. As in all summers preceding
election years, the current between
session spell finds investigating COM
mittees hard at work. One reason
is that their members can draw big
headlines without competition dur
ing the news-less dog days of late
summer.
This summers committees will
be headed by Texas Rep. Martin
Dies, who reopens his investigation
of subversive activities. The new
house committee to investigate the
national labor relations board will
provide bit more entertainment.
Such affairs will not interest the
tourists, however. Preparing for a

The Homecoming lancer's lifetime

three-quarters of mile from end to
end.
When completed in 1871 it viii
have cost approximately $500, 000,-

At present, greatest interest in

size, although because of the breadth
of the Columbia river canyon at the
point of construction, the project ap-
