HK CRICKET TEAM PLAYS LAST MATCH TODAY
By HENRY LONGHURST
By the purest coincidence I was mentioning the other week that Walter Hagen's life story was due to bo published in England-without, I hoped, the trivial in- accuracies relating to golf in Britain.
It is now nirendy published, at 308, by Heinemann, to whom I lift my hat not only for having adjusted the inaccuracies but also for producing the pictures in much better style than in the American edition, thus proving that there are other things than Canals on which we may occasionally be more knowledgeable than our American friends.
