MAN-MUCH HANDICAPPED Silliarda Command d Attention 'Women of Woblllty Soring' Former Days In France. of , Smashing throug-h . the tarriers of , man-made convention, women are in vadinif th high class billiard 'rooms , In the big cities : and are devoting "many -of their leisure hours to the " f mastery of the games of iocket and ' three-ball ! billiards. . ' Woman, by nature, is a natural bil liard player, : and in the days before the--French revolution, women ranked : among the greatest billiard players in ' the world. Women of the French no bility and aristocracy played billiards " and played the game wonderfully well. And in those days proficiency in the Kama of billiards was as much of a social asset for women as is dancing today. Billiards lost in favor in France after the revolution. The noble women who formerly played It were dead and the other! women shunned the game ' because they thought tt an evil one , -because it had befin played by the e women in1 the gay frivolous court of I' Louis XVI. ", ' ; Man' Qame X&ter. In; the past 60 years the game of i billiards has been almost exclusively v r man's game. Men have made it bo by throwing a barrier around it and permitting only those of tltfeir own sex to enter, Billiarda has been held up ' as a" game for men only, yet, there . i is no game that is more suited for women and woman's peculiar tempera ment. 'It is a gentle game- one that does not call for any show of strength or endurance. But it does call for a ; dellcacy of touch, a keen eye ami a j light muscular development the very , things in; which woman, by nature, is man's superior. , Man really, Is naturally handicapped . in game of billiards. lie is strong. If has powerful muscles, the tend i,.ency of which is to strike with full ' power. Man must subdue that smasli r Ing, crushing impulse because smasli . inir means failure 99 times out of 190. Ivi? ' Woman,! on the other hand, has rfo T& jpucli impulse to conquer. Hers is a lelicate, -sensitive touch one that is j"pdeal for the game of billiards, where J lightness of touch and delicacy of Stroke la !an absolute necessity at all t 'times) ' ! I Champlonanip Games Planned, Now that women have gone in .for vibilliarda there is , a possibility that within the next four or. five years we ;:-will -be treated to championship htl f'liard matches between men atid worn a Vn. It wouldn't be surprising to eo a woman as the world's billiard champion during the next five years, J provided of course, that sorne women will go Into the game with their whole I heart and soul, as have the men who t have risen to the crest of the billiard I. world.

Tine presence of women In the ; poolrooms has been a silent influ ; :ence "for better conduct among the ' men, patrons and has caused almost ? a total absence of cuss words by men f over 4f allure to inake shots while ; women are present. . . . ,. In some of the New Tot cafes the - proprietors ha,veJ taken, cognizance of the new feminine demand for a game of billiards.' These fellows- have j chopped ,off rart of their dance -floor ' space arid made that portion into a t billiard room for women. And the tables are always busy, many women t- preferring billiards to the fox trot. ''ANNUAL OREGON i -TRACK EVENTS ; MAY 15, IS -PLAN ?
