, London, May 23,

Indigant denials of any horseplay among the team on the night preceding the death of Maurice Nichol, the Worcestershire cricketer, were made at the inquest at Chelmsford yesterday.

Nichol was found dead in bed on Sunday morning at a Chelms- ford hotel, where the Worcester- shire team were staying.

“Definitely, no," declared Hur- old Ian Gibbons, a colleague of Nichol, when asked by the Coroner (Mr. C. E. Lewis) if anything in the way of horse-play took place.

The Coroner: Have you any iden where the suggestion of horse play emanated from? No. I think 3t rather disgusting.
