Difficulties Ahead.
It will not be so easy for Malaya to raise a side to undertake the tour on this occasion as it was then. Not only have we lost many of our best cricketers in recent years from various causes connect- ed with alump, but there are pro- blems of finance to be considered, as the difficulty of players getting sufficient leave of absence to make a tour which will probably extend for at least a fortnight.
Hopes are entertained locally, however that these difcuities may be overcome.
