...matches that put him in a tie for second place with Erwin Rudolph and Andrew Ponzi. In the playoff, Caras beat Rudolph by 125-to-8. Later the same day he disposed of Ponzi, 12540-94, in a match which ended with Caras' dangerous cut-shot for the right-hand upper corner pocket-when, if he had been a little less sure of himself, he might have broken a cluster to put Ponzi out of position instead of trying to run out the game. Son of a Greek pool parlor proprietor, Caras learned to play when...
