DENIAL OF ANY HORSE PLAY

DISCOVERY AT POST-MORTEM `

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 Har old Ian Gibbons, a colleague of Nichol, when asked by the Coroner (Mr. C. E. Lewis) if anything in the way

of horac play took place. The Coroner: Have you any idea where the suggestion of horse- play emanated from?-No, I think It rather disgusting.
