Stormes got away with the lead during the first hundred and at 160 was over 40 points up. Here Maggs found his usual form and minde a good series of breaks. From now onwards Maggs had the game well in hand, he was helped by considerable luck, the balls run-1 ning very well for him. Stormes, on the contrary, suffered very bad luck, and although Maggs Un- doubtedly played the better game, still the difference should not have been so great. Maggs closed the first session at 610, going out with a 35 break; Stormies was only 307. The principal breaks were:- G. L. Maggs, 58, 22, 24, 25, 62, 35, F. Stormes, 22, 20.
