AUSSIES ROBBED OF VICTORY Soccer

England's Magnificent Fighting Innings

Yardley Does It Again

Melbourne, Jan. 7.

The third Test ended at 6.p.m. today in a draw, with seven England wickets down for 310, Norman Yardley, Alec Bedser and four short adjournments owing to rain robbed Australla of a victory. When Hammond was bowled by Lindwall there was still about two hours left for play and the only question was whether England could hang on until the drawing of stumps. At this stage Yardley was joined by Alec Bedser, the tall Surrey bowler, and the pair stayed to- gether until about 15 minutes before the close of play. Bedser stepped in front of a straight ball from Miller and was out for an invaluable 25. When he left the game was safe from England's point of view.
