VERITY HERO OF

ENGLAND'S TEST TRIUMPH

Australia Helpless On Sticky Wicket

(Special Air-Mail Service)

London, July 4. England beat Australia in the second Test match, at Lord's yes. terday, by an innings, and 38 runs. It was the first English triumph over Australia on the famous ground since 1896. The King saw some of the play.

Australla falled to save the tol- low-on by seven runs only. Then the collapsed again before the bowling of Verity, the Yorkshire 'left-hander, and were all out for

118.

In Verity was the day's hero. taking afteen wickets for 104 he equalied the record of Rhodes, an- other Yorkshireman, who, at Mel- bourne, in 1903-4, captured afteen for 124.

"

The toss undoubtedly won the match for England Every cric- keter will admit that, and though all over the country people will re- joke at our victory, at the same time it is only proper to sympa hise with the Australians in their bad fortune.

But these things have happen- ed before, and will happen again. England played a winning game with determination and power.

It was, of course. Verity's match. In taking Afteen wickets for 104 runs he bowled himself almost

a sticky wicket and England had the bowler to take advantage of it.

Verity's performance was magni- Acent. If the pitch had been made to. order it could not have sulted him better. In Australia's second innings be turned the ball both ways, sometimes the width of the three stumps; kept an immaculate length, and flighted and spun the ball so cleverly that even Bradman and McCabe, perhaps the most ag- Tressive batsmen in the world, were kept on the defensive.

For ten or afteen minutes Brad- man played him carefully-long enough to dispel the nation that he canno cope with a bowler's wicket. But in the end the York- shireman wore him down,

Bradman, having ufted him safely into the outfield for two, attempted another drive and falled to get hold of a leg break.

The ball was skled straight up so high that any one of half-a- tozen Beldaman could have got to it. "Ames," called Wyatt, and the great crowd cheered wildly as the ball disappeared into the wie ketkeeper's gloves.
