LINDRUM KNOCKS UP 687 IN 24 MINUTES Reed. 9 a.m. MELBOURNE, Today. Playing almost faultless billiards. W. Lindrum (Australia) further increased his lead over Willie Smith (England). Lindrum ran together a break of 687 in 24 minutes 25 seconds_ Scores: Lindrum (in play), 8,527 (breaks of 687, 565, 442, 458); Smith, 7,195 (breaks of 432, 410, 471, 403). BREAK CERTIFICATES Reed.’ll a.m. LONDON, Thursday. The Billiards Control Council has issued a record certificate for the season to Walter Lindrum (1,416 against Clark McConachy on November 1, 1928, described as a world’s record). Newman’s 1,231 against Smith on September 19, 1928, is the English record. There was no reference to Smith’s 2,743 against Newman on November 14, 1928, apparently because no application had been made on its behalf.
