ALL IS NOT WELL WITH THE AUSTRALIAN TEST CRICKET TEAM

Says HAROLD MAYES

Britain, in the grip of snow and ice, seems

long a

way from Test cricket. It is, of course, but a week from now, whatever has happened in the New Year Soccer battles, Australia v. England will still be one of the chief topics of conversation.

By that time England may be well on the way to being three down in the series. Sure, there'll be plenty of people ready to tell me that they performed very creditably in the Brisbane game, and that only the elements licked them, but while morale may have been boosted as a result, I am afraid that the ultimate ending is still only too obvious.

To me the position is that England have put everything in the shop window and the Aussies know just what to expect. Even the fact that all may not be well in the Australian camp is not sound enough reason for feeling that the tide may turn, for they have the talent on hand to stifle immediately any auggestion of dis-

Says ARCHIE QUICK

Bristol Rovers are gluttons for panlehment when It comes to cup-tie football. Having taken five hours to

dismiss non-league Linnelly in the first round of the FA Cap Competition, they required five more hours to beat Gillingham.

And goodness knows how long it would have been if it had not been for a fortuitous penalty kick awarded by a kindly referee five minutes before the end of the second replay in fog and snow at Tottenham. Another five minutes and it would haye meant extra time-and the light was not good enough for that ever to have been
