HEROES OF THE M.C.C. TOUR.
ENGLISH CAPTAIN'S BROADCAST SPEECH.
"The outstanding features of our tour," said Mr. A. E. R. Gilligan, the captain of the M.C.C. team, in a talk broadenst to all stations frem" LO." on the team's return to England, were the magnif cent batting of Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe, the fine howling of Maurice Tate, Strudwick's wicket-keeping, and the grand all-round folding of the team."
He paid further tribute to Hobbs, who, ho said, is still the world's greatest bats- MED Sutcliffe, he added, would without doubt be Babbs's successor. Sutcliffe's three consecutive centuries-one in the Arst match at Sydney and two at Mel- bourne-would stand for all time. Strud- wicket at the wicket, showed the finest form of his whole career, and his keeping made all the difference in the world to Tate's bowling" our only bowler." who took thirty-eight wickets in the series, beating Arthur Mailey's thirty-six wicket record in the 1021 40 Tests.

Having stated that the fielding of his side was admittedly infinitely superior to "that of the Australiana, Mr. Gilligan re- called Patsy Hendren's magnificent work in the second match, when he must have saved two hundred runs.

On the subject of the toss, Mr. Gilligan said:
"The question of tossing for choice of innings. again brings up the point that in my case, where I lost the toss four out of five times,, it rather in- volved too great a disadvantage upon the side losing the toss. No doubt this point will be seriously discussed, too."
Mr. Gilligan" paid a tribute to the hospitality extended to them in Australia, and referred to the kindness of the Gov- ernor-General, Lord Former, who never missed single ball bowled throughout the five Test matches, which lasted thirty-one days altogether,

Phil Scott, the English heavy-weight. boxer, in the opinion of the secretary of the Middlesex Hospital, "one of the finest specimens of manhood in the country," acted recently as a model for Ho the anatomy class at the hospital. was also the subject of a number of medical tests. His costume consisted of a pair of boxing shorts. He stood on a table in the theatre-like class-room, very much as a model would. pose for 40 artist. With his body canned a light mahogany shade, and with the muscles rippling beneath satin-like skin, be looked as it as it is possible for an athlete to be.

Three Harrow baya, who figured, pro- winently on the school rolla, were found there. The news came as a shock to the Head of Harrow, the Rev. Lionel Ford, and he immediately began an inquiry into the question of how many of the boys frequented London night clubs..
He was satisfied that only four others, in addition to those found, in the 43 Club, had attended clubs from time to time.
Unfortunately three of them were seniors and responsible boys in their respective bouses; and the Head, there fore, deemed it necessary to take the drastic course off' sending them down.” FREEDOM OF NOTEKET.
