INJURED SHOULDER GOOD FOR TWO

Trevor Bailey Hits Out Against Worcestershire

།

London, Aug. 5.

England all-rounder Trevor Bailey hit 132 with two sixes and 17 fours to help Essex take first innings points against Worcestershire today.

Bailey had been unable to bowl because of his injured shoulder, but it did not prevent him batting powerfully. He took three and a half hours to reach his century, but opened out afterwards and hit strongly.

SIXES ALL THINGS

London.

The quick fold-up of the West Indies to allow England to romp home in less than three days on two occasions this season—has brought this five-day Test business to 'the very log of cricket's talking points,

What's going to happen next year when New Zealand come over hero? And in 1959 when the limited talent of Indin arrives? Are we still to have five days Allotted to games which this quick-firing England bowling should comfortably wrap up in three -or maybe two?

I know the brass hats at Lord's are concerned about it. But there is precious little, they can do without risking injury to the pride of the smaller cricketing countries. Since they were elected as members of the Imperial Cricket Conference they have been entitled to equal conditions with every ather member of the cricket empire.
