▼дHE CHINA HAIL," SATURDAY, JUNE 8*
THE old Kent and England player, FRANK WOOLLEY, lays claim to an incredible record in a match against Somerset at Taunton "years ago.” He states that he scored 70 or 71 runs in three overs. It is not recorded in Wisden, but, as BRUCE HARRIS says, it is "going some," though physically
possible.
