first with 500 runs scored in six innings, for an average of 100, and C. F. Walters, the Worcestershire captain, had scored 782 with an average of 71. Iddon, too, has started in great style and has an average of 124.

The bowling figures

Clark, another left-hand bowler of a different type, has started the season in the most promising way, his 29 wickets having been taken at a cost of a Hitle over 9 runs each.

He covered 12. laps of the track-146 miles at an aver. age speed of 132.8 m.p.h, and claims to have broken the 200 kilometres record, and the in- termediate records,
