GROIN TROUBLE ENDS MEMORABLE CAREER
WATSON AT HIS BEST FOR LANCASHIRE
POLLARD DELIGHTS CROWD
(By Thomas Moult)
Manchester June 9.
A SHADOW fell on Iddon's benefit match here this afternoon. Ernest Tyldesley, who had turned amateur with the intention of helping his county whenever he may be needed, suffered while batting a recurrence of the groin trouble that hindered him so much last season, and was unable to field in the second innings.
He intends to bat again if he is called upon.
"I learn, however, from Capt. Howard, the Lancashire secre- tary, that Tyldsley has decided not to continue in first-class cricket after the present match. So ends a memorable career.
This Tyldesley contributed 22 to a score of 304 to-day. substantial Lancashire total was in reply to Surrey's 161, so that Lancashire led on the first innings by 143.
