Middlesex Again Take Lead In County Table
CLOSE RACE FOR HONOURS
London, Aug. 12.-Once again Middlesex have been taken a clear lead at the top of the County cricket championship table, but they are still being challenged strongly by Worcestershire, Surrey, Yorkshire and Warwickshire,
With so many Counties concerned in the race for the championship it is possible that there will be a tie for top honours for the first time for 60 years.
Middlesex's victory over Kent today gives them 152 points-eight points load over Worcestershire, who were sharing the lead with them before these matches started, but were beaten by Somerset yesterday.

PITCH
NOT "DOPED"
May Help Bowlers In Fourth Test
London, Aug. 12.—The pitch. at Kennington Oval, where tomorrow England and New Zealand begin the fourth and final Test match of the present series, has received no special treatment and should give bowlers some assistance.
To those who feel that this game, like the pre- vious three Tests, is destined to be drawn, this news from the head groundsman, Bert Lock, provides a ray of hope.

LUNCH-TIME WIN
Middlesex took only two and
a half hours to dismiss Kent and they won on the stroke of lunch time by 122 runs.
The
slow bowling" of Jack Young and Jim Shus, whose different styles presented a splendid con- trast, proved loo much for Kent, who wanted 250 runs to win.
The
worn and duty pitch gave
the bowlers every en- couragement and Kent never recovered from bad start, and in a Annl collapse the last five wickets fell for 44 runs, Young took four for 51 to give him a match analysis of ten wickets for 131, which Sims took four for 57 in the second innings.
