THE SECOND TEST

THE CHINA MAIL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27, 1956.

FRANCE TAKES FIRST THREE IN GOLD CUP

KEITH MILLER'S GREAT PERFORMANCE WILL LONG BE REMEMBERED

London, June 26.

Australia, the side that had been unable to win a single match against the counties, humbled England at Lord's this afternoon when they cantered to an easy 185 run victory.

It was their first triumph in this country since 1948. Even now the result is only slowly sinking into the general public who had gathered în' their thousands at this Mecca of cricket to see and hail an England win.

Instead, they witnessed an Australian victory in the shape of a truly magnificent performance by the 36-year-old Australian all-rounder, Keith Miller, who ended the match with the magnificent analysis of ten wickets for 152 runs.

London, June 26.

Defending Champion Miss Louise Brough, of Beverly Hills, Califomla, swept into the third round of the Women's Singles at Wimbledon today by overwhelming 16-year-old Miss Jean Forbes, of Cape Province, South Africa by 6-0, 0-0,

In addition to being drawn against the reigning champion and having to start the day's Centre Court programme Miss Forbes fell heavily during the sixth game which reduced her to half speed for the rest of the match.

After lunch, Evans and Moy soon went. Evans to a catch by Langley behind the stumps, his seventh victim in this match, and May to a similar ball a few minutes later, but not until he half-century het hit his third of the serus.
