Army Win At Lord's
'ROYAL NAVY'S SECOND COLLAPSE
(Special Air-Mail Service)
Loudon, August 1. The Army beat the Royal Navy at Lord's yesterday by nine wickets, and so gained their Grst victory Kince 1920. In the match E. S. Cok tock nine Navy wickets for 40
uns,
When play was continued in heautiful weather yesterday morn ing the Navy had lost one wicket ir their second innings and were ati 135 behind the Army's rather moderate, first innings total of 248. Sub-Lieutenant Provas and Sub- Lhoutenant Briggs, who had been sent in for the last few minutes on Monday evening, wers soon separat survivor, Prowse, ed, but the
settled down after a rather nervous start, and his batting lost nothing by comparison with that of Major Congdon, who joined him at the Tall of the second, wiket and who has before now mada a century in this match. A beautiful 4 through the covers off E. H. Cadogan added this confidence and the 50 had guns up before C. P. Hamilton en on at the nursery end. The field spread nut, and Prowae fell into the trap off the very first ball. being caught on the square-leg boundary. The Navy then had a but time hecause four runs later Major Congdon was deceived by Aight of o ball from Cole and was obviously leg-before-wicket. Major Boks met the same fate at 60 in Cole's next over, and go, with half the side out, the Navy still needed 81 to avoid defeat, in an innings.
Sob Lieutenant Branwell" and Halsey, Lieutenant Commander however, stayed together from noon at 1 just before luncheon and by adding 60 they not only assured play lasting until after luncheon but caused W. M. Doggatt some an- xiety. Branwell played some de lightful strokes through the covers and both men were well set when Cole came to the reacue and spread- gled Branwell's wicket with a ball to which the batsman played for- yard.
At the luncheon interval the Navy were still nine behind and although ix men were out the "tail" had already been in and it seemed quite possible that the Army would have to toil in the fold for at least another hour. But in his first øver "after luncheon Cadogan knocked Hulsey's middle" stimp five yards away from the other two and also bowled Lieutenant Borgnis. Lieut.- Commander Bartley put the Navy aheud with a ent for four but Cole" bowled him off his pads at 164 and the Army were left with only 22 rons to get and these were obtained easily enough by half past three.
