Better known and better spelled as, “St Louis Blackie” LeSieur. He was the second tournament one pocket match that I had ever played (Johnston City, 1970). (Since I posted that much, y'all know the result is unnecessary:lol)

I played Blackie one pocket at the Elks' Club in Evansville with Fatty and Coakes watching.

Won enough to buy a new gold Rolex.

The good old days. Gone now.
