Good drill by D. Appleton...................

Nice drill.

Appleton is one of my favorite players but I've always wondered about he and others who keep the chalk in their pocket. My wife would read me the riot act about the chalk rubbing the inside of my pocket when she did laundry and everything turned blue. Do they keep a plastic bag in their pocket or does the inside of their pants pocket turn blue from chalk?
 
Here is a free-form example of that drill, said to be a favorite of Jim Rempe:


Another pattern is a 3x5 grid of balls on the diamond crossings on the lower part of the table. This was also the setup for the Boys' Club remote tournaments through the 1960s or so, but there rail contact was allowed.

And then there is Leon Yonders. o_O
