Professional Championships.

The season of 1906 in billiards was the most successful of any since the palmy days of Ives, Schaefer and Slosson. Maurice Vignaux, the veteran French expert, held the world's championship at the 18.1 style of play when the year began, but Willie Hoppe, the American "infant phenomenon," captured the title from him in an exciting challenge match played in Paris, Jan. 15. The summary:

Hoppe-500; average, 20 20-24; high run, 93.

Vignaux-323; average, 14 1-23; high run, 61.

Soon after the victorious, youngster returned home Hoppe was challenged for his title by George F. Slosson, and this second match was played at the Grand Central Palace, New York, March 27. Again Hoppe won. The score:

Hoppe 500; average, 10 4-46; high.

run, 56.

Slosson-392; average, 8 31-45; high run, 61.

Jacob Schaefer next challenged the youthful champion, and he also was beaten, Oct. 17, in New York, but only after a very close finish. The score: Hoppe-500; average, 10 80-47; high run, 96.

Schaefer 472; average, 10 2-47; high run, 42.

In the mean time a professional tournament had been held to decide the world's championship at the 18.2 style of play.
