AS WE KEEP ON HEARING ABOUT
ENGLAND'S BATTING PROBLEMS
TOM GRAVENEY AND WILLIE WATSON HAVE LEAPED INTO FORM
Says DENIS
COMPTON
We have been hearing so much about England's batting problems for the Tests this summer that I am particularly pleased at the swift leap into form of two of our more experienced players, Tom Graveney and Willie Watson.
Graveney has taken up where he left off in the recent private tour of the West Indies.
Watson, whom I always thought had the gifts and temperament for the big oveasit a, scored his century off a strong MCC attack at Lord's when the odds were against him.

Pull Off Trick

A Continental Hat
In Forthcoming Tour
Says VERNON MORGAN
London, May 15,
England, fushed with the success of their comfortable victory over Brazil. left London on their brief Continental tour, confident of beating Sweden, Finland and Germany.
They meet these three opponents on May 16, May 24 and May 26 respectively. Even without the great Stanley Matthews, architect in the English triumph over the Brazilians, who has gone to Kenya to fulfil a rouching engagement; even without Don Revie, the scheming centre-forward who was instrumental in giving Manchester City the coveted Football Association's Cup, the excellent form shown by the Englishmen last week giver every indication that they will pull off a Continental hat trick.
