Break In Weather Is England's Test Match Hope
(FROM FRANK ROSTRON)
Sydney, Jan. 6.
Freddie Brown pulled the curtains of his central Sydney hotel bed-. room aside carly and anxiously this morning to scan the skies. Following yesterday's day of missed English opportunity the break in the weather still being predicted by the meteorological experts is now England's best weapon to win this Test Match.

London, Jan. 5. Britain, France and the United States will lose no time in replying to the latest Soviet communication in the exchange of notes on a possible renewal of direct four-Power negotiations, is believed here.
Yesterday's total of 211 was far too low for five hours tenancy of what was little less than a dream pitch, even though five wickets still remain.
But if Brown can lead Bailey, Evans and perhaps Alec Bedser, who have all previously made their Test fifties under more difficult conditions than these, England may yet reach a total of 350 or thereabouts, which will still keep victory within range with hopes of promised thunderstorms damaging the pitch or continued sun and wear helping to make it crumble by the time the fourth innings becomes due about next Wednesday.
