As the newest screen vocal sen- sations Van Dyke nominate Clark Gable, Joan Crawford and Fran- chot Tone singing "She'll Be Coming' Round the Mountain When She Comes" in Metro-Gold- wyn-Mayer's "Love on the Run." coming to the King's Theatre to- day.

"It was nothing short of an in- spiration," aid Van Dyke,

The director, himself a dra- matic tenor who has sparked many a quarter, got the idea while relax- Ing between scenes during the filming of the picture.

Spying an idle plano, Van Dyke suggested a bit of harmony.

Gable was roped in

The weather was sunny with a cool wind and a very doelle wicket when a crowd of 70,000 focked to the ground this'morning in the ex- pectation of seeing Don Bradman, the Australian skipper, flog the English bowlers.

Don had been described as being in double century. mood, but be had only added four runs to his score when he was bowled by Ken- neth Furces, the Essex fast bowler, The ball was the first delivery of Farnes's second over and shot through like lightning to uproot Bradman's leg stump. Bradman played back to the ball in an effort to defend his wicket 346-4-168),

Bradman had been at the crease for 223 minutes and had hit Afteen

fours.

Badcock was then joined by Gre sory and the two kept together unt lunch, when they had added 53 to the total.

Badcock was entirely untroubled by Allen's repeated changes

of bosing. His stroke play was brii. lank

Gregory was subdued.

.. The pair added 50 in sixty min- utes and at lunch Badcock was 40 not out and Gregory 25 not out, the score at the stage being 389 for

prize. He now opened out, pulling several balls to leg with freedom.

Tea was taken with the score at 530 for five wickets, Gregory being 78 and. Oldfield 1.

During the tes interval clouds began to appear and at 4.25 p.m. a misty rain started to fall.

Although this interruption last- ed only five minutes the bowlers were forced to use sawdust.

With only 20 added Gregory's Ane knock came to an end. He fell a victim to Farnes, off whom he was caught by Verity at short leg for 80.

His innings took 195 minutes and yielded ave fours. (544-6-80).

With the fieldsmen closing in, the batsmen showed none of the freedom of the earlier play, and with 19 runs added Oldfield trud- ged back to the pavilion.

He had played a useful innings of 21. being dismissed as a result of a fine catch by Ames on the of side of Voce. (563-7-21):
