ENGLAND'S
EXCELLENT START IN THE SECOND TEST

As I was starting to write these notes up I heard that in the second Test at Sydney, England bad 118 for two, Fagg il and Barnett 57 both out. It was a considerable surprise to hear that Sims had been put in the side in place of Fishlock who is twelfth Dan.

As indicated by the foregoing I ex pect to see South China "B" win, and it's pretty certain I am not alone thern.

This apart, however, and even sup- posing the match was played on the Club ground, the Happy Valley out- it would still be facing o ticklish task.
