By HORACE

LINDRUM

At the time of writing my first article of the 1952/53 sengon my tour of the Union of South Africa has just ended.

During the course of my travels I have played at most of the big city clubs as well, as the Country Dorp clubs, and I have come up against some outstanding amateurs both at Billiards and Snooker.
