So much of interest was packed into two hours play, it is difficult to pick out the outstanding features. They were, perhaps, O'Reilly's sensational bowling before lunch, the Nawab of Pataudi's century, and the scatter ing of the wicket of Woodfull the "unbowlable," by Lar- wood.
England's first innings closed at 524, giving them a lead of 164. Shortly after lunch, Australia had lost two wickets and still required 136 runs to wipe off their
arrears.

LONDON, DEC. 6. DARTMOOR IS IN A FURORE FOLLOWING THE RECENT ESCAPE OF MICHAEL GASKEN AND AMEY AND THE ASSAULT UPON MAJOR PANNALL, THE GOVERNOR, BY AMEY, .
As a sequel to the latest indication of reckless in- subordination, discipline in the prison is being further tightened up and a scheme of reorganisation is being carried out as a result of which the staff will be almost completely different from that at the time of the mutiny a year ago.
It is revealed that unrest among the prisoners has caused considerable trouble in recent weeks, but as a result of the authorities adopting the attitude “Take it or leave it," the convicta' daily complaints regarding the food supplied to them have ceased.
Meanwhile, orders have been issued that the prison regulations are to be strictly enforced, while rifle prac-: tice with dummies representing escaping convicts is being regularly carried out,
