Died. Welker Cochran, 63, swaggering billiard sharpshooter and Willie Hoppe's longtime touring opponent, world's champion six times in three-cushion, twice in balkline competition between 1927 and 1946, who trained for a match like a boxer, doing roadwork around Central Park and giving up smoking, once remarked, "The killer instinct is part of a billiards player"; of a heart attack; in Belmont, Calif.

Died.
