It is a complaint that passes. There comes a time with either sex when age is a matter for pride again, and birthdays de- mand recognition.

Alfred has reached this agree- able frame of mind. He remem- bered that this day was his birthday; also, he realised that the dock at the Tower Bridge court was not the place in which to celebrate the fact.

"I'm 64 today," he complained the dock, when his turn from came to speck. But the net was not part of the evidence agains! him, and it could not be part of his defence, since he had none, having pleaded guilty charges against him.

London, June 5.

Surrey's win in two days yesterday over Derbyshire takes them in- to a clear lead of eight points at the top of the county cricket championship table.

Hampshire, who were level with Surrey before the matches which ended today, were engaged in a friendly match and have dropped into third place, below Glamorgan, who scored a fine victory by an innings and 48 runs over Essex.

From six games Surrey have obtained 52 points while Glamorgan have 44 points from seven games and Hampshire 40,, also from seven. Next come Mid- all dlesex with 38, Gloucestershire with 36 and Northamptonshire with 30, having played seven matches.
