Pool table?

Do anybody remember a small pool table checker in elementary school? I remember playing it when I was in like the 5th grade. I don’t know what it’s called, but there are like black and red checkers, and you play it like a pool table.. Help me out.. I want it.

Yes. We called it caroms. It was a square table with pockets in the corners. And instead of balls and que sticks we used round wooden disks and wood sticks about 3 to 4 feet long. I played this game in the school yard in East LA in the late 1950’s.

Found a link with a picture.
