Hoppe 10 Risk Carom
Title in Fall Joust
With Schaefer
Many Sports lmmortoIs
Have Come and Gone
During His Reign
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, April 8-Thirty-four
years ago Teddy Roosevelt was in
the White House and the Chicago
White Sox and Chicago Cubs turned
the World Series into a city series.
That was in 1906, the year Jim
Jeffries retired as heavyweight
champion of the world, Alex Smith
won the National Open golf title and
w. J. Clothler was the No. l tennis
player of the Nation. 3tt
That also was the year Willie
Hoppe, lad of 18, first won world
championship in billiards. The next
year a Georgia firecracker named
Ty Cobb won the first of IL batting
championships.
After that big George Herman
Ruth became a great major league
pitcher, then greater home run
slugger; Bobby Jones took charge
of the golfers and Big Bill Tilden
collected tennis honors with amaz-
ing consistency.
Sets Record for Average.
Cobb, Ruth, Tilden. Jones-these
and many others are has-beens now,
but the 52-year-old Hoppe, steel
nerved and precise, carries on as the
greatest player billiards ever has
known.
If there were any lingering doubts
as to Hopes superb artistry in his
chosen game, they were removed
for all time in the just-closed tour
nament for the world three-cushion
title. The field of II included De-
Tending Champion Welker Cochran
of San Francisco and five former
title holders.
Hoppe played his 10 rivals two
times each. won 20 straight games
and finished the meet with the title
and an unprecedented feat in bill
lard annals. It was the longest
title tourney on record, yet Hoppe
did not waver in a single contest,
establishing a new record of 1.161
points per inning. The old mark Of
1.123 was set by Cochran in 1885
in tournament just half as long.
Has Held Every Title.
Since winning his first title in
1906, Hoppe has held all billiard
championships at least once and
many of them several times. He will
put his three-chshion crown on the
line this fall in a challenge match
with Jake Schaefer of Cleveland,
tourney runner-up. The match will
be for upward of 300 points.
Schaeffer finished one game ahead
of Jay Bozeman of Vallejo, Calf,
who won II and lost eight games.
Cochran and Johnny Layton of Sc
dalia, Mo-, were tied for fourth, q
game behind Bozeman.

Guggino-SiIva Battle

Ring Patrons
Floridiun 6-5 Fovorite
Over Mexican Tonight
In Arena 10-Rounder

Carl Guggino, transplanted Flor
ida lightweight, will exchange blows
with joey Silva, pesky Mexican
scrapper, tonight in 10-round fea-
ture bout at Turner's Arena, which
may mark another chapter in the
rebuilding of the boxing industry
here.
Washington ring fans showed they
will support bout which promises
brisk action when the largest crowd
in months saw Phil Furr battle Bill
Mcdowell last week and Match
maker Gabe Mendez apparently is
back with a like attraction.
Not the most talented warriors
in the 135-pound class, Guggino
and Silva, nevertheless, may be
tonic to the gasping game here. AL
though Guggino Is 6-5 favorite,
Silvas style doubtlessly will make
the fight, for joey slings leather in
a steady stream. Guggino is inclined
to adjust himself in the early rounds,
then increase the tempo.
Having won two successive local
victories, Guggino meets in Silvia
fighter who wedged his way into
favor here last year with triumphs
over Pete Galiano and AL Reid be-
fore, losing TO- joey Archibald. re-
Gently dethroned featherweight
champion. joey will be making his
first appearance here in six months.
Three 6-rounders and a Around
bout complete the card, with Tony
Sarullo facing Billy Bullock, Art
Lind meeting Jimmy Byrnes and
Sammy Williams trading punches
with Billy Burrone in 6-rounders
and Elwood Harris arguing with
Dominick Nicco in the Around
opener, slated at $3.50 o'clock.

BOSTON. April 8.-They don't
know 1t yet, but it's Blue Monday
today for 1913 unidentified members
of the cast of nearly 200 amateurs
from 80 States and the Hawaiian
Islands as they start a three-day
scramble for eight National A. A. u.
boxing championships.
Exactly that number must be
eliminated in the "three-ring cir
Gus" which marks the first day Of
championships and when the smoke
Of battle clears at Boston Garden
long after midnight they will find
themselves excused from further
carnage.
The survivors, who will have
weathered one of the toughest of
three grueling days IN their quest for
eight fistic crowns, will count 1t a
joyful day for they go on to the
quarter-final melees tomorrow.
Only One Champion Back.
Three rings have been pressed
into service for the first days af-
trays, which will weed out the 1913
doomed candidates. Only one ring
will be needed for the 80 quarter
final bouts tomorrow and the "a
contests making up the semifinal
and final brackets on Wednesday.
1t will be late Wednesday night
when the gigantic field finally is
Whitfield down to the eight sturdy
mitt singers who will be crowned
in each of the eight championship
classes.
Only one crown bearer is around
to defend the title he won last year
in the championships at San Fran
cisco. He is Cozey STORAGE, Rome.

through list of "a rivals to main
tain possession of his crown.

crown last year, has sent WE'LL
balanced delegation to Boston and
already has been installed as the
most dangerous contender for team
honors. A dark horse crew in the
lists is the squad from Philadelphia,
which boasts five Eastern Golden
Gloves titlists in its ranks.
Advance Sale Brisk.
Before the opening gong sounds
at 3 pm, each of the entrants will
bear a certificate of physical fitness
after undergoing the prescribed
medical examination.
Few, if any, will funk that test
for they have been preparing care
fully to avoid such a fate on the
brink of national glory.
Nearly $4,000 witnessed the tourna-
ment when last it was held here
two years ago, but larger gate is
expected for the 1910 champion
ships. The advance sale has been
brisk-brisker. in fact, than for any
f1stic affair since the carefree days

"Pofahl can play shortstop. He can
throw just as hard as he wants to
throw"
The next inning, when young Jim
Dean replaced Dutch Leonard and
got himself into trouble with base
on balls and single, Pofahl came
up with Les Burgess drive and con-
verted it into a side-retiring double
play. In the ninth, with the Crack
ers still annoying Dean. he ended
the game by going in back of second,
grabbing Shotgun Williams hard
smash and throwing him out.
Leonard in Trouble Once.
Pofahl made one other play that
further distinguished him yesterday.
Leading off the sixth with an infield
single, he broke for second when
Rick Ferrell grounded to third base.
AS the Cracker inf1elder, Roy Smith,
came up with the ball and threw
to first base Pofahl continued to
third without breaking stride. He
made 1t and later scored.
The game served as Leonard s
final tuneup before the opening Of
the season a week from Tuesday
against the Red Sox. Dutch had
only one bad inning, the fifth, as he
held his old teammates to four hits
in the seven rounds he worked. In
this frame Ryan doubled, Williams
walked and Pitcher Larry Miller
beat out a bunt, filling the bases.
Then Shortstop Williams flied to
Case and Ryan scored.
Again losing control, Leonard
walked Mailho, filling the bases, but
Pofahl got him out of the hole. He
sneaked behind Miller, standing off
second base, and trapped the pitcher
with Leonard's quick throw. In the
rundown Williams was caught at
the plate for the second out and
Case took Mauldin's fly to end the
inning
The Mats, who scored heavily in
the first inning of each OF the three
games in Atlanta, took SO lead
yesterday and never lost 1t. Case
with single, double and triple, led
