·FOR COVERED COURTS CLUB

(By H. R. McDonald)

"My idea, Mr. Dailey told me to-day, "is that the ETIA. should build a covere, courts club, engage a staff of professional coaches, and invite the counties to submit the names of promis- ing players, who would be given a course of instruction in the best conditions.

The surprise e selection is Sievers, 22-year-old Victorian all- rounder, who has never played in a Test. F. Ward has been pre- ferred to Grimmett, and there is not a left-hand bowler in the side. Five of the men have not previously played against England.
