THEY SAY

Believe me, when a batsman is going slow it lim't always for the rea son that he is deliberate- ly sitting on the splice. Not a bit of it. Very aften he is pegged down by the bowler. With the ball doing all sorts of things, the man at the wickets would be risking "suicide" if he opened his shoulders and took a real crack Maurice Tate.

In England the sports writers In Iput down what a guy says...

America they print what they think he should have said. Buddy Baer.

Budge and Mako strike me as in- ferior as a combination to the Alli son-Van Byn or Lott Van Ryn, or Borotra-Brugnon of years ago. Roland Allan.

Old Trafford is the best ground in England for a Test match. Best wicket, best outfield, best stands. best hospitality, best everything. --- Arthur Gilligan.

I think Miss Yorke. should have been given a chance in the Wight- man: Cup team. She has been the only British victor in the French championships for the past two years, and was the only: Britisk doubles winner at Wimbledon this year.-C. P. Dizon

You know those stories of athletes who eat twelve eggs and a beefsteak at breakfast and finish off with six cups of teat They are less numer- ous than they were 20 years ago. But one hears of them. Such diets time startling may produce for at physical results, but those will be inevitably detrimental-Pete Des- jardins..

Farr is going to surprise you. I know he did me. I picked him out as a "bum" before the fight, like a lot of other guys, but he is a re- markable fighter. He is the most disconcerting fighter I've ever seen. I don't see how Louis will ever hit him with a left hook, and I guess that is Joe's best punch. Ancil Hoffman, Maz Baer & manager.
