BRILLIANT- BRADMAN AND STOLID WOODFULL FAIL TO AVERT DISASTER

VERITY THE AGENT OF DESTRUCTION

As a result of brilitant bowling by Hedley Varity, backed up by magulacent folding, England appear to be in an almost un- assailable position in the Fifth and Final Test Match at Sydney. Dismissing the Australians cheaply in their second venture, the M.C.C. now require only 163 runs for victory, with all ten wickets still intact.

England led by valý aletaan runs on the first innings, and although Australia made another disastrous start, Richardsca "bag ging a brace," a fighting Innings by Don Bradman, and the dour defence of Woodfall, put them in a somewhat better position by the tea interval. But after Verity had clean bowled Bradman, and Allen disposed of Woodfull, the tall" wagged dismally, the last six wickets falling for only 43 runs, leaving England 164 to get. to win on a comparatively undamaged wicket.."
