PRESIDENT WILSON AND SHANTUNG.

Los Angeles, Sept.

President Wilson referring to Shantung said that Bri tain and France cannot honourably violate the secret treaties with Japan. The only way by which the case of Shantung could be bettered was to go to war against Bri- tain, France and Japan. He asked whether those objecting to the Shantung settlement were ready to fight Britain, France and Japan in order to recover the province for China He knew they were not ready. Their interest in Chins was not to assist China, but defeat the Peace Treaty.

He concluded, amid cheers, by declaring that it was impossible for America now to desert her associates in

TOM HAYWARD.

GREAT BATSMAN S RETIREMENT.

It is heavy news that Tom Hayward will probably be seen no more in first-class cricket. Forj over twenty years he was one of he most familiar and popular figures in the game, and by fre quenters of the Oval especially he will be most keenly missed.

Although Hayward was born at Cambridge, be belongs to a family which 'lived for generations at Mitcham, and it may be of in- terest to recall that both his

father and grandfather played in their time for Surrey. The famous Tom Hayward of the| 'fifties" and" sixties, who ranked with Carpenter and Daft as the best professional batsmen of the day, was uncle of the Surrey player, so it was by no means surprising when "Young Tom," as he was called twenty years

there was cricket in him.

He commenced his career for Surrey in 1893, and averaged 18.33 for the season, and subse- quently he showed such improved form year after year that his figures advanced to 26.78, 29.22, [3L67, 38.00, 42.30 and 58,82., His most successful campaign WAS that of 1906, when in all first class matches he scored 3518 runs and averaged 66.37.

TWENTY-TWO BEASONS" WORK.

Between 1893 and-1914 Hey- ward scored over 40,000 runs in first-class cricket' in England," besides paying three visits to †Australia and one to South Africa.

But he was far more than a mere run-getter; he was 'a stylist in every stroke and he had many. Although he was not seen in first-class cricket until he was in his twenty-third year, he is the only bataman to share with "W:G." the distinction of having made over a hundred centuries in great matches.

During his long and brilliant career Hayward obtained 104 centuries in first-class cricket, 88 of them for Surrey. Two were for England against Australia, one against South Africa, and seven for the Players against the Gentlemen.

record for first-class cricket by reaching three figures four times. in one week-144 not out and 100 7. Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge, and 143 and 125 v. Leicestershire at Leicester.

It is of interest to note that he made at least one century against every side Surrey met in the County Championship competi- tion, as well as against the two Universities, the Australians, South Africans, and Philadel.. phians. Only “W. G." (54,896 runs, average 39.55) has obtained more runs in first-class cricket.

A FIRST-WICKET BATSMAN. As one of the pair to open the innings, whether for England, the Players, or Surrey, Hayward was an ideal choice. During the ten years 1905-1914 he and Hobbs put up three figures for Survey's] first wicket as many as 40 times, which is easily a record for county cricket.

In glancing at Hayward's career the fact must not be lost sight of that he was for some years a very good medium. paced bowler. In 1897 he obtained as many as 114 wickets during the season for a fraction over 18 runs each, and with Lees ren-| dered excellent support to Tom Richardson in. inter-county mat- ches. But of course, batting was his forte, and it is as one of the most accomplished of batsmen that he will go down into cricket history.

Tom is now in his forty-ninth year, and he could not, in the natural order of things, have er- pected to continue to occupy á prominent place in the game much longer. He is, in fact, a veteran, and there are just now many young players knocking at the door of Surrey cricket. Verily the old order changeth, giving place unto the new By F. 8.
