Birmingham, June 13. When South Africa lost McGlew their captain and his opening partner Goddard to Statham for only five runs today England looked well on the road towards winning the first Test at Edgbaston.

They had set South Africa to make 310 in the second innings on the fourth day but a sterling knock of 68 not out by Roy McLean who received admirable support from Pithey and Waite has set the stage for some thrilling cricket tomorrow, the last day of the match.

WAN

South Africa another 190 runs and they have seven wickets left.

It culd be a fight to the death with Mclean the danger man to England. While he re- mains the odds will be on South Africa.

This is McLean's third tour of England. He first came here when he was only 20 and now he is playing in his 29th Test and will not be 30 till next month.

South Africa looked to their opening pair, McGlew and the Lall left-handed Goddard, to rive them a sound start but within ten minutes, Statham, bowling bls very best, had sent them both back to the pavilion for only five runs. As in the first innings, True- Statham had seven man and
