THE THIRD TEST

THE CHINA MAIL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 1955.

SPRINGBOKS SNATCH A VICTORY THREE-WICKET

FROM ENGLAND

Manchester, July 12.- South Africa, beaten in the first two Tests, turned the tables on England at Old Trafford, Manchester, in a dramatic victory by three wickets with three minutes to spare.

The well deserved success was South Africa's first in Tests at Old Trafford and only their third in the entire series in England." At the same time England suffered their first defeat for 53 years on the Lancashire ground.

To Defend Davis Cup

For America In 1956

New York, July 13.

It's too early to make any definite predictions about the 1956 Davis Cup, but one thing is clearly evident-It's up to Tony Trabert to defend it for the U.S.

Australia, which plays in the American Zone this year, is favoured to win through to the Challenge Round, so it probably will be Trabert, Vice Seixas and Ham Richardson against Ken Rosewall, Lew Hoad and Rex Hartwig.

Trabert is the key man. If he effort to reach their peak for is at the peak of his game, the Cup play on August 20-28, Amerlen should win again, with at Forest Mills. two singles victories by Tony
