BOBBY LOCKE-THE MAN THEY SAY CANNOT HIT A STRAIGHT BALL

-

The man they say cannot hit a straight ball has just won his third Open Golf Championship in four years. The nome, just in case you have not guessed, is Locke, Arthur D'Arcy Locke of South Africa, more popularly known as Bobby. And for a man who puts "draw" on all his shots rather than go straight down the middle, that is pretty good going.

Looking at the heavy-jowled, amply-built South African it is difficult to realise now that he started play- to build up his ing golf at school merely us a means. physique. But that is just what happened.

FREDDIE BROWN TAKES

FOR 33 IN GIMBLETT'S

BENEFIT MATCH

London, July 26.

Englund's former Captain, Freddie Brown, was not very friendly to Harold Gimblett, the England batsman, today when he took seven Somerset wickets for 33 in Gimblett's benefit match although Gimtdet! was not one of his victims.

Brown's was the best County bowling performance of the day though Victor Cannings also took seven wickets for Hampshire against Warwickshire but for exactly double the number of runs conceded by Brown.

The highest County total was Leicester's 304 for eigh: against Werees.ershire, but individually honours went to Cyril Poole of Nottinghamshire.
