THE CHINA MAH

ENGLAND NEEDS 103 RUNS TO BEAT S. AFRICA WITH ALL 10 WICKETS IN HAND

Manchester, July 9.

England, with all ten wickets in the second innings in hand, need only 103 runs to beat South Africa in the Third Test, which ends to morrow...Victory would give them a lead of two matches to one in the series of five games, ·

A brilliant spell of new ball bowling by Alec Bedser, Surrey's fast-mediumt bowler, who took, five wickets for 11 runs, helped to dismiss South Africa for 191 36 for no in their second innings today. Needing 139 to win, Erigland scored wickets at the close of play.

Play was restricted to three hours today by rain and bnd light. After a hold-up for three hours because of rain after lunch, England batted in extremely poor light against kicking fast bowling on a lively wicket and added seven runs, in 15 minutes.

Turnesa writes in the U.S. Golf Association Journal that in play from trouble, particularly with the wedge from bunkers and on the putting green the U.S. players have an edge, primarily because they expand a great deal of effort in practice.

Robinson A Four-To-One

Favourite

London, July 9. No fight in recent years has created greater interest in boxing circles In Britain: than thobout between Sugar Ray Robinsoit, the | World, Middleweight Boxing. Champion, and Randolph Turpin, the European Middleweight Champion, which takes place at Earl's Court, London, tomorrow night.

Robinch is a 4 to 1 favourite to retain his World title, which he is putting at stake in this 16-round contest. Few give the British boxer much chanco) though it is agreed that his hilling power is oven greater than his American rival's,

Turpin's view is that no boxer is unbeatable, "If I hit itim right I can send him down, so I am going to give him ali I have got," he said.

Robinson has only tasted defeat once in 130 fights and is a boxer of the highest class. He appears to have everything- speed, footwork, balance and a punch, too,

But Turpin has at least the advantage in age-being seven years younger and is in the happy position of having every- thing to win and nothing to.
