"JUMPING” IN SNOOKER
Snooker” writes: “In the event of a player being snookered, is it permissible to jump a ball? The shot. T might say. was barred in the particular* | room in which the argument took place as a result of what was contended a foul shot. As the game was for a ! stake, what is the position? j This query was referred to the proprietor of a well-known city billiard* saloon, who gave the following decision: “A steeplechase shot is not a foul stroke unless incorrectly played, or is barred ; by the marker in charge. Should, how ever, the stroke rot be barred in th® i room, the marker is the only judge a« } to whether the shot has been correctly made, or comes within the meaning of a foul stroke under rule 5 in the Rules n* Snooker, i.e., striking the ball twic«* ; once with th® tip and again about , inch along the cue.' — Sports Ed., T..a Sun.
