UNCERTAINTY OF EARLY FORM IN ENGLISH SOCCER

London, August 27.

The uncertainty of early form in the English soccer leagues is reflected by the fact that only sixclubs in the four divisions have gained full points. After each club had played three matches, only Wolverhampton Wanderers In the First Division, Blackburn Rovers and Chesterfield in the Second and the Third Division clubs Torquay United, Gateshead and Stockport had hundred per cent records.

Compton And Dewes Dominate N.Z. Bowling

London, August 27.

The New Zealanders, playing their last match against a full County side, paid a heavy price for dropping Dawes, of Middlesex, before he had scored at Lord's today. Instead of the total reading 21 for four, Dawes and Denis Compton between them made 240 out of a Middlesex total of 315,

Following his wonderful 97 not out the previous day against Derbyshire, when he ensured Middlesex finishing at the head of the County champion- ship, Compton again dominated the cricket. Where Hart Lane, Lourion, where Tottenham.

Yorkshire Definitely On Top In Game Against Glamorgan

London, August 27.

With Middlesex having completed their County programme to be sure of at

least a share in the championship, major interest in today's games naturally centred on the Yorkshire-Glamorgan game at Newport. Yorkshire need to win if they are to tie with Middlesex, but they did not start inspiringly when taking two and a half hours to score 8 runs at the start of the day.
