Says VERNON MORGAN

London, Apr. 24.

To say that English soccer is in the doldrums is to put it mildly. The best the national team could do was to make the 1955-56 Champion- ship a four-way tie with their rivals, Scotland, Wales and Ireland,

Preliminary Bouts Surprise KID GAVILAN OUTPOINTS WATERMAN; COCKELL AND GARDNER SUFFER KO'S

Kid Gavilan, former Welterweight Champion, got his revenge tonight as he won a ten-round decision over previously-unhealen Peter Waterman of England in their return bout.

In their first match, Waterman was given the victory in a decision so obviously bad that the referee later lost his licence.

However, the big surprise of round went down for counts the card came in two of the of seven, seven, nix and eight preliminary bouto In which before the Brul Booring, He

At Last Australians

Bradman-So Watch Out England

If Australia wins back the Ashes this summer it may be due to the throwing off of an influence the Bradman influence. And before any Bradman worshippers accuse me of heresy let me hasten to add that such is the view of Ian Johnson, skip- per of the side whose job it is to regain the Ashes,

Saya Johnson: "During the Bradman era our batamen became careless. Don so demoralised the attack that the rest of the batsmen had half their job done for them that of getting on top of the bowling.
