Challenge Match at Leicester Square Hall, London
Walter Donaldson (World Snooker Champion 1946-7, 1949-50)
v.
Albert Brown (World Snooker semi-finalist, 1951-52)
This match should be a particularly interesting one, for it is something of a return contest: Donaldson beat Brown by the slender margin of one frame in the semi-final of this year's World Match Play Championship.
