Fine Game Last
Night at Northern
Interesting billiards were played
last night at the tournament, which
continues to hold the attention of
everyone. On account of the A. B.
rehearsal, which took up the time of
many of the players, only four games
were played but they were all closely
contested and held the attention of
everybody right up to the last shot.
In Class A the game between Peel
and Colwell was exceptionally good.
Peel started off and by using his col
lection of carefully studied strokes
succeeded in putting up a row of
goose eggs which threatened to put
Stine’s record in the shade. Colwell
played his regular steady game and
ran ahead of Peel some twenty points
in billiards and at least a hundred
points in smiles. From that time on
it was Peel’s game all the way, Peel
winning by the excellent average of
1.91 and the high run of the evening
of 15. In spite of losing by 14 points,
Colwell’s steady play is illustrated t>y
hie average of 1.56 which is exactly
his average in his first game with
Bruner.
Sid Anderson and Mitchell both
played to win. After a very even
game all the way through to the 126th
inning Mitchell put his score of 97
in the oven and put a row of goose
eggs on the fire while Anderson in the
next five innings ran out his necessary
twelve points, winning by three points
and scoring his best average, 0.76.
Woolley won over Daub by 10
points with an average of 0.92. His
game is improving and his chances
are being looked over by all the con
I testants in Class C.
The average of all games played to
j date are:
Class A 1.66
Class B 0.99
Class C 0.83
* Highest individual averages are:
! Bruner, Class A 2.32
James, Class B 1.27
Evans, Class C 107
