CRICKET

(By Jack Hobbs)

London, June 13.

MOST interesting point with regard to the captaincy of England is raised by a London Brusselis Royale Conservatoire correspondent. He writes me pleading for the

Herriet Cohen (Pi) retention of R. E. S. Wyatt as skipper. THE ANDERSON MUSIC COMPANY, LTD.

Phone 21322

Ice House Street

"The whole question of successful captaincy seems to depend on the success of the other members of the side," he points out. In all the Tests in which Wyatt has been leader, other players cm under him have failed."

This has not struck the average person. I do not think IĮ had given it a thought myself. But there is a measure of truth in it. Wyatt has not had winning teams under him, and he has been up against it all the time.

"KID" BERG LIGHTWEIGHT CHALLENGER

JIMMY WARNOCK'S JAW INJURY

JIMMY

London, July 7.

WALSH, British light-weight cham- pion, has been roused to protest by the announcement that Jack (Kid) Berg, from whom he took the title, has gone to America to challenge the winner of the Tony Canzoneri-Lou Ambers fight for the world crown in New York on July 30,

Walsh declares that he should be given preference over Berg, and adds that he is willing to go to, America to take part in a trial contest if that is deemed necessary.

One can sympathise with Walsh's view, but he not need worry unduly. The critics do not believe that Berg, popular as he is with American fight enthusiasts, will again be recognised in that country as a logical contender for the world title.

Americans have a disconcert-

and Berg's defeats by Laurie Stevens in South Africs follow- ed by his beating at the hands of Walsh will not be considered impressive.

It is quite likely that Berg will be offered contests while he is in

America, but whether the purses will meet with the approval of Manager Harry Levene is another matter..
