ADELAIDE, January 19. At the close of play to day England's first innings score was 270 for six wickets.
Hobbs played "a- chanceless innings, restrained but resolute. It was a magnificent effort. The scor- ing of his first ten runs occupied 50 minutes. He was given a splendida ovation when he came in at the end of the day's play...
Sutcliffe batted for 24 hours, with rocklike defence. He hit two fours. Hendren batted soundly for the 75 minutes he was at the creases." It was a plucky fight for runs throughout, akainst excellent bowling and fielding. Woolley's that he will be able to. bowl. Freeman's wrist has improved

The duke, by the way, failed to catch the part of the game that reminded me of our performance of Handel's greatest oratoric. I do not know how it is in America, but in England the audience always stands up for the Hallelujah Chórus. Ini America during a game of baseball it stands up for the seventh inning. And we all did stand up except the royal party, which, not hav ing been properly coached in the ritual, remained seated, a scandal that evidently made a most pain- ful impression on the Americans present.
