EXPERIENCE FALLS TO AMBITION

WOODFULL AND WARNER

QUARREL OVER LEG THEORY

AUSTRALIAN DENIES APOLOGISING

1

A heated argument between M. W. Woodfull and "Plum" Warner, the English Test team manager. as to the rights and wrongs of body-ne bowling, ended, accord- ing to an Australian paper in the Aussie skipper apologising.

But Woodfull has since re- futed this, and says that he did not retract a single thing he sold to Warner. All he pointed out was that his remarks were not personally directed to Warner,

ADELAIDE, Jan. 16. "There are two teams on the field; one is trying to play cricket, and the other is making no attempt to do so," Woodfull is reported to have said to the English manager on Saturday in connexion with the leg theory.

The incident, it is stated, took place in the dressing-room, when Woodfull was receiving attention for the blow over the heart which he had received from Larwood' early in his innings. Mr. Warner had heard of Woodfull's shaken condition, and had entered the dressing-room to sympathise with the Australian captain.
