HOPPE, BILLIARD CHAMPION OF WORLD
Six mimes of cueists ;iro pointed to
in Hie billiard hall of fame, 'Willie
Hoppo, Oeore Sutton, (ieorpe Slos
soii. Juke Schaeffer, Maurice Vignaus
and Frank Ives. Of the six but three
are living, Ives, Yignaux and Schaefcr
having passed on. Slosson, nn old
man. is no longer in the running. Re
cently Iloppe put Sutton in the same
class and today the world's balkline
champion at all distances stands in a
class by himself, without a single
balkline player being nble to give him
n good battle. Sutton has been n great
player and is the only one who ever
defeated Iloppe for the' 18.1 crown.
Sutton is still a skillful billlardist, but
Iloppe has Improved so stendily that
the veteran looked like a novice in
their recent meet.
Holds World's Titles.
Iloppe holds both the 18.1 and 18.2
world's titles. The 1S.1 game Is en
tirely too difficult for even the cham
pion, and lias been discarded. Iloppe
took the 1S.1 crown from Yignaux in
Paris when the Frenchman was f8 and
Iloppe 40 years his junior. Sutton
wrested this title from Iloppe, but
the latter regained it ut the expense
of Oru Morningstar.
From almost infancy Willie's life
has been devoted to billiards. lie was
able to beat his father ut pocket bil
liards before he was six years old.
When he was ten he averaged 13 at

14.2 balkline. Tim when he beat
Yignaux it was natural to say, "I told
you so."
Compared to Ives.
Iloppe has often been compared to
Frank Ives. Ives was a meteor in the
billiard zenith that flashed into view
20 years ago, but he had nothing In
common with Iloppe. Before he be
came a great cueist Ives had tried liis
hands at many things, while Iloppe
has been at the green cloth game his
entire life. Previous to becoming a
billiardist Ives had been a jockey, bi
cycle rider, racetrack bookmaker, roll
er skater, in fact a jack-of-all-trades.
Ives was a wonderful shotmaker, one
of the most spectacular in the history
of the game, but he never reached the
proficiency of Iloppe in handling the
cue.
Iloppe's billiards are the same to
him as religion. Although he -probably
knew Sutton could not give him
a hard battle in the St. Louis match,
Uoppe trained faithfully for the con
test, starting the middle of August.
First he played alone on a set sched
ule of each day and In the last two
weeks of his training took on "Chick"
Wright, a well-known San Francisco
cueist, to polish off his preparatory
work. While he loves to golf, Hoppe
refuses to play the game for fear it
would spoil his touch with the cue, ns
it is more rigorous exercise.
" 'Freddy' Welch is champion be
cause he boxes with his head," says an
expert. Never heard of him butting
anybody.
