	EABA : Articles : Walter Albert Lindrum - His Life and Times (Peter Ainsworth)
		Lindrum would probably have been encouraged by the recent decision of the English professionals to discard the use of ivories and adopt the composition ball as a standard for their matches.
		Lindrum, was understandably upset at the death of Rosie and confided in his niece Dolly that he was considering abandoning his intended tour of England.
		Lindrum was not allowed to proceed until he had responded to calls of "speech," and in a few words he modestly said he was gratified at having beaten his own record, which was only possible with the assistance of the very friendly welcome and appreciation he always received in London.

		Horace Lindrum could do quite fantastic things with a billiard ball spinning it with a snap of his double-jointed fingers.

		Walter Lindrum became the best billiards player the game has ever seen while his nephew was amongst the best snooker players in the world for a great many years.
		Moving on to Horace Lindrum for a moment, I personally feel that the fact that his world championship win in 1952 is not recognised appears from a historical perspective, somewhat churlish.
		Horace Lindrum and Clark Mc Conachy played what in effect became a challenge match for the world snooker title as all other professionals had withdrawn due to a dispute with the governing body.

	Classic Images: Zachary Scott
		Raised by a heartless mother and estranged from his ne'er do-well father, young Horace becomes "ruthless" as a way to survive.
		Elegant and charismatic, yet cruel and remorseless, Scott's Horace possesses a pathetic, uncontrollable immorality which seems to be congenital.
		Horace Vendig seemed to be resurrected in the guise of Scott's character, Max Durant, in the minor romantic melodrama Whiplash (WB-1948).

		Entries dropped until only two took part in 1931 but then a few overseas players joined in including Horace Lindrum, nephew of the great billiards champion, Walter who was just about the only player who could give Joe a reasonable challenge.
		Fred and Scotland’s Walter Donaldson shared the next few titles before a dispute with the governing body led to all the top players setting up their own event, the Professional Matchplay championship, in 1952 which was regarded by most as the world title.
		Fred won all the Matchplay championships until he pulled out in 1957 when John Pulman took the title but there was by then little interest in the game and the championship was suspended for seven years.

		Another cue man that rates a mention is Tom Dennis who competed more than once against Joe Davis and made a reasonable account of the contest.
		Horace Lindrum had a good battle with Joe Davis in 1940 and so must have been quite a player as well.
		In fact Horace Lindrum made a 137 break in 1937, which was quite an achievement at the time due to the tight pockets and composition balls of the time.

		My cards feature Sidney Lee, Joe Davis and Walter Lindrum, I have a double of Walter in case anyone wishes a swap, perhaps for one of the missing cards that I have mentioned during this small piece.
		Churchman also produced a series of fifty cards entitled, “sporting Celebrities” number nine featured a caricature of Walter Lindrum and must have appeared between 1929 and 1932, as the break that it mentions as Lindrum’s current best was under 4,137, which he made in 1932.
		The colour scheme and the way that the picture is set out are both very pleasing to the eye in fact the card has a mixed style, a kind of retro modern quality that sets it apart from many other cards of the type.
