ECLIPSES VIC. TRUMPER AND MACARTNEY HIS AMAZING BATTING AVERAGE

(By. J. C. DAVIS)

Sydney, October 18. THOUGH Alan Kippax is playing for Waver- ley District Club, and will continue to do so, he will take no further part in representative cricket, for either State or Australia. He tells me that this is his definite decision. A beautiful batsman.

With the exception of Don Bradman no batsman ever achieved such a high degree of success for New South Wales as he has done. W. L. Murdoch H. Moses, V. Trumper, M. A. Noble: Warren Bardsley, C. G. Macartney, and J. B. M. Mackay, were top sawyers, but the Kippax deeds thrust theirs into the back-

ground

Kippax took part in a greater bumber of Sheffield Shield matches than any other New South Welshman, viz, 61. In these he scored, on the average, just about 100 runs per match! And this is the man the Board of Control refused permission to join the Tarrant team for India last season! It was one of the big- gest mistakes any body in Australian cricket ever made.
