Rare Performance By

BEAT KIWIS TWICE IN ONE SEASON

London, July 31,

Surrey boat the New Zealanders by an innings and 103 runs on the second day of play at the Oval today. Surrey accomplished a rare performanco in beating a touring side twice in one

season.

After the dismal failure of the New!

Zealanders in the first innings of this match, the result was scarcely in doubt, and the only issue was whether the touring team could avoid their second defeat by an innings at the hands of Surrey.

It was not to be. for although they more than doubled the total of their first maings, the arrears of 221 were far beyond their cupabilities.

A Fleeting Thing Is Fame Now Appleyard And Lowson Among Yorkshire's Discards

By ARCHIE QUICK

What a fleeting thing is fame.

Consider the case of two Yorkshiremen, both in their mid-thirties, and who a year or so ago were stalwarts of England's Test team-Bob Appleyard and Frank Lowson. The Yorkshire County Cricket Club announce that they are not to be retained at the end of this season, so they have three alternatives - to offer their services to other counties, enter League cricket or retire.

Yel it was only seven short summere ago that Appleyard was halled as spin bowling genlus when he took over 200 wickets (at 14 runs oplece) in his first full season of counly cricket.

It was only three and a half years ago, in the winter of 1954, that he as much as anybody else, helped to retain the Ashes in Australia. Frank Tyson and Brian Slatharn got the glory, but Appleyard, with his economical going bowling irept one and while the tast men rested,

Ill-health did not help him, and when the Australians camú to Englund in 1056 the drawn First Test at Nottingham was destined to bo the last of the nine in which he played for his country. He took two for 40 ir. 30 overs, was superseded by colleague Johnny Wardle in sub- sequent Tests and now sees an- other Yorkshireman, Ray lilingworth, take his old place in the England cleven,

Disastrous Summer

The present wel summer has been disastrous for the Ukcablo Bob. He did get four for 30 al Lords for the M.C.C. against the New Zealanders, but now he has been dropped by York- shire. Even so he has sent down enly 200 overs and still taken 27 wickets al an average cost of 10.

Into the shadows with him goes Lowson, once halled as the lightful successor of Herbert Sutcliffe. He was a sound No. 1, somewhat stodgy at times, but he did play for England seven times with a top season in 1956-1,428 runs, four centuries and 94 catches in the stips. That un- mer he also helped Cic Wilson with 343 for the second wicket at Oxford against the University.

“Younger Team'-

Policy

Appleyard is 34, Lowson a year younger, and they are vic tims of the "Younger Team" polley beiniz adopted by York- shire.

A Committeeman told mo at the Oval: "Yorshire cricket has hit rock bottom lately. The Average age has to be pruned to admit some of the promising Second Eleven youngestem ready for senior duly, They cannot do worse than some of our 'copped' men. The standard of play must be revived. Members are grumbling and the membership must not fall if we are to keep clear of football sweepstakes. Think of our old teams and you woep."

Then to endorse this wrathful Leeds gentleman's words Surroy (or rather Tony Lock) proceed- ed to skittle out Yorkshira for 70 and 110 to win by an innings

and 88 runs in two days;

What a humiliation for the

one-time all-conquering Tykes.
