TEST TRIAL MATCH
IN
London, June. 1.-Heavy rain interfered with cricket in many parts of the country today. Of the four County fixtures, only the Gamorgan Middlesex match at Swansea remain. ed unaffected, while the Test trial at Birmingham was held up after lunch for two hours.
At Ilkeston, play was limited to 15 minutes, during which time Sussex scored five without loss ngainst a Derbyshire attack depleted by Trial claims.
A superb display of fnat medium bowling by Leslie Jackson, of Derbyshire, dominated the cricket in the Test trial. This 28-year old six-foot tall bowler, who was brought into the North side when Aspinall, of Yorkshire, withdrew, so demoralised the. South batsmen that, on a pitch giving bowlers little help, they were dismissed for, 85.

Look Out, England!
SAYS JACK HOBBS
Look out, England! These New Zealanders may be better than we thought. That is my impression after watching them play on "my" wicket at the Oval. They are some way yet from being a great team, but they will learn, and the match against Surrey played a part in their education.
Most of them-those who had been at the Oval before, and those who know no more than they had read or heard about the wicket there were surprised at what they found.
