Schaefer's Last Night's Billiards Display Shocks New York

New York crowds at Madison Square Garden witnessed Schaefer in a dramatic closing game of the Schaefer-Siosson-Iyet tournament. He attacked the lower rail with precision, walked the length of the table in a tense display, and finally scored a dominating 566-600, though the anchor nurse technique drew heavy critique as the crowd roared and Daly encouraged restraint. Schaefer set a world record with 110 in one run, but observers warned the anchor nurse may be barred from future events while praising Schaefer's mastery and stamina.
