RADIO RETAIN LEAD
IN "D" DIVISION
DEFEAT POLICE EASILY AT HAPPY VALLEY
WINNERS CONSISTENTLY GOOD
(By "Base Line”)
PLAYING consistently good, but not brilliant, tennis, the Radio Sports Club retained their lead in the "D" Division of the Lawn Ten- nis League yesterday when they defeated the Police at Happy Valley by 62 sets to 2% ini a clash spoiled to some extent by the terrific glare.
Gurbachan Singh missed Karnail Singh, his usual partner. and for the first time this season conceded a set, to Pile and Carruthers. who were the only Police pair to win any of the
encounters
SEVERAL OF THE RADIO PLAYERS WERE OUTSTANDINGLY GOOD IN THEIR VOLLEYING, BUT IN OTHER DEPARTMENTS OF THE GAME THEY WERE EQUALLY POOR AT TIMES.

jolt at Lord's, have answered the call of youth for the third Test against the South Africans, which commences at Heading- ley, Leeds, to-day. But the answer is an extremely compromising. Jone, as youth will be opposed to youth for the two vacant places, as I see it. For instance, Sims, Barber, and Smith are unlikely. to be in the side together. The latter twe are opening batsmen. Sims, on the other hand is likely to be displaced by J C. Clay In order to provide the second amateur in the side, despite the Mid- dlesex player's 6 for 28 against Essex..
Leyland has fared poorly this season, but a left-hander of his calibre is unlikely to be discarded very quickly in the absence of Sutcliffe, Clark, and Hollies, so it looks as if Smith and Sims will be passed over, unless the Selectors feel that one fast bowler will sufice and omit Bowes in favour of Smith. The South Africans will probably field the same team that broke the Test "duck” in England, and unless England's youth answer the call it looks as if they may go still further ahead.
