She's Certainly One Of The Pretty Ones For

Another Beary May Soon Be Seen On British Racecourses

Says DICK FRANCIS

It may not be long before the famous name of Beary is seen again on the number boards of British racecourses. Fifteen-year-old Shaun, son of the late Michaci Benry, will have only himself to blame If he does not make the grade.

The family tradition is right—his uncle, is trainer John Beary--and so is the finishing school... young Shaun is apprenticed to Fred Armstrong at his big Newmarket stable,

Cross Channel Swim

Haifa.

If Israel's entrant for the coming cross-Channel swim is not the favourite to win, sfie is certainly one of the pretty ones and perhaps the most modest. Asked why she is making the attempt, Edna Bornstein, of Tel Aviv, says: "I can't give a logical answer. It's an emotional matter. It's a sort of psychological urge like that of a person who just has to try and achieve something, and not something material.

"If I win, I get £500. But I'm not kidding myself. I'll never see that money because I'm not going to come in first. I'll be happy if I manage to get across.'

Start Getting Ready Now For The Australians, Says Denis Compton

There is no rest at the top in cricket, and even if England throw off the challenge from West Indies-and they are idently placed-we must prepare now for next year's Australian tour.

Our bowling, never doubted in recent years, looks solid for a long time yet. Now the batting future begins to look almost as good.

I know it has not been drastically tested, because West Indies are not such a powerful bowling side me, for instance, the South Africans,

MINIMUM TIME Apprenticeships vary in length, The minimum time a boy may sign for is three years; but five years is better, and Armstrong ilkes to sign one on, at 13, for | zeven years, In that time they are brought up to understand every aspect of racing.

Armstrong takes very good care of the boys in his charge, not only teaching them their job as jockeys, but helping them to grow into disciplined, modest, and level-headed young men.

He has le apprentices flown
