Walters Starts Well ...Woodfull began the bowling with wall, from the Pavillon end, and McCabe at the other end, which is contrary to the usual procedure at Headingley, Rhodes took all his wickets from the Pavilion end and the faster bowlers started at the other, from which there is a light fall in the ground.

Things were going well enough and some bandinage was being thrown about concerning the huge score that was to be made when Keeton who had just crashed a lolloping ball from Gimmett square to the off boundary," was caught at the wicket off O'Reilly's faster ball. It was rather surpris ing that he allowed himself to be so easily deceived. The score was then only 43 and, with Hammond starting shakily, the game' had al- ready so early altered. But the crowd consoled themselves with the thought that there were so many batsmen still to follow. How quickly, and feebly, they were in- deed to follow they could never have guessed.
Not The Real Hammond. Hammond only occasionally allowed us to see the glorious bats man, he can be, and for the mo- ment he seems to be suffering from a Test Match germ of the most virulent type. He was beaten by

Australia began their innings at a quarter to 6 with Brown and Ponsford to the bowling of Bowes, from the Kirkstall Lane end, and Hammond. Bowes bowled to two slips, Hammond and Hendren, and a gully, with a short fine-leg close in, but he was inclined to be short. Hammond was as quick as Bowes off the pitch, but both Brown and Ponsford were glancing the balls he pitched on the leg stump away easily enough. Ponsford was most assiduous in looking for runs, and there was every appearance of the evening wearing out with a typical Australian opening partnership when Wyatt had the idea of put- ting Mitchell on in place of Bowes, whom he transferred to the other end, EA
The move was at once success- ful, Bowes knocking Brown's off' stump back and in the next, over having Oldfield caught at the wicket. Oldfield, whether he was sent in out of his proper position or hot, is always a nice man to have back in the Pavilion, for he is inclined to be a perfect nuisance towards the end of an innings. When Oldfeld fell there were only five minutes left for play, and it was great for England, but perhaps Bad for many who admire a brave; gesture, that Woodfull, who-him- self came in next, played a ball on to his wicket.
