ftUSTR ALIAN AND N. 7.. CABLE ASSOCIATION COMMENT ON McCuNACHY’S PLAY. LONDON, April 13.
The “Observer” says that McC'oline by n a dr- many brilliant strokes but seldom created an impression. If he had had confidence in himself he would probably have done better i! he had made giiliter use of the red hull in the earlier stages of the game. llis reluctance to develop this phase is somewhat sui prising for events have shown that ho stands little or no chance ol holding his own against a powerlui scorer like Newman unless lie makes the fullest use of his scoring ability with the red ball.
Inint'ci comments in the “News of the W'Hd” :— “McConaeliy lor good or ill has shut down on the rod hall. He set out in a fairly confident mood and exchanged top table breaks with Newman whose tactics around the top spot are as good as can he. Some people are expecting a change on the scoring board wkci McConachy begins the red ball game. If he has anything up his sleeve it ought to- he pulled down and kept down from the start.”
