THE SNOOKER RECORD
Lhidrums will be Lindrums! It seems impossible to create a record on tne green cloth that one of the iik will not smash. Latest is Horace who, opposed to Joe Davis, ran together a phenomenal break of 141 at Snooker. The figures seem incredible, seeing that 147 is the possible. Actually, the figures mean that nine blacks and reds were taken, and six pinks and reds, and all in succession. This is the way the snooker record has been jolted dur.ng t.ie current season in England: Joe Davis 114 (which lifted tne figure from 109) which was equalled later by Horace Lindrum. Then the last-named startled with a run of 131, which Sidney Lee followed with 133. Now the Australian has run to 141, and only a gap of six points remain to be bridged. It does not seem possible.—Sydney Referee.
