ANOTHER CURIOUS TWIST IN

VOCE AFFAIR

WOOLLEY ASKED

TO PLAY

London, Aug. 17. Newspapers are still featuring the Voce incident at Nottingham, and Socratory Brown of the Notts Club has given out an official statement in that connection.

PROLEMS OF THE TEST

What If It Lasts

• Eight Days?.

(By A. E. R. GILLIGAN.)

Neither England nor Australia has been able to claim the advan tage in the present eeries of Teat matches. Each has had one win and there have been two draws.

The nrth Test, which begins on Saturday, Aug, 18, will be un- limited in length and played through to a finish,

In the first place, he says, the Club had not received any telegram from any source regarding the non-playing. Supposing the match-owing to of Voce in the second innings against the vagaries of our climate-runs the Australians. Secondly, no me into the eighth day, the Surrey C.C. bers of the Club Committee had ro

PREPARED TO PARTICIPATE IN FAR EASTERN GAMES IN SHANGHAI

Commenting on-confirmed recent reports that China refusci to recognize the dissolution of the Far Eastern Athletic Associa tion dissolved and is making plans for the holding of the Games in Shanghai in 1938, Jorge Vargas, vice-president of the executive committee of the Philippine Amateur Athletic Federation do- clared that "the Philippines is willing to take part in any athletic games held by China to which we are invited.” MING

reported. And thirdly, the statements made by A. W. Carr, the Notts cap- tain, were purely personal, and made without either the approval or know ledge of the Club.

SELECTION IMPROBABLE.

The Test selectors are meeting to day and it appears certain that Voce will not be included. Bir Stanley Jackson says he will not run the risk of playing injured men.

Voce says that despite the state- ments that he has been given a medical examination by the M. C. C. to test his fitness, he has heard nothing whalever from them.

C. F. Wallers' thigh injury la still- troublesome and it neema mast un- likely that he will be able to play. It is probable that Kenneth Farnes will be called in.

SEATS IN DEMAND. Meanwhile the seats for the match are selling like hot cakes. All have been sold for the first three days. It Is Hikoly that the weather will bo fair and warm.

that the All England is hoping

lucky Oval will continue to, prove for the homo aide. The Australians have only won there twice, in 1882 and in 1030.

It is being said, now, that I. A. R. Peobles has a new freak mystery ball, of the googley type used by Grimmett and Fleetwood-Smith,

which ho has been using in Club Cricket and in Scotland.

Kippax, it is learned is likely to replace Darling and Hendren, anally,

is now almost certain to play.

T. Wall, who is still injured, will. probably be replaced by Eheling.- Renter.

ENGLAND'S MEN

They throw away the match By bowing short or howling wide; And sometimes when the ball in

ill

They fall to make the catch. The men who pick for England Are either fools or cranks. They put in Binks of Middlesex Instead of Jinks of Lancs. While those who captain England

Are yold of vital flair: They get the bowling in a 'mess. They pince more slips instead of

Ican-

And long-stops far too squarel The men who write for England

With ov'ry ball that's bowlod.

At once they place a fivider

To counter Ponsford's glance. And though the catching of the side Is wenk, "Just as I prophesied,' Then mover miss a chance. The men who, bowl for England Are sometimes known to tire. And under-pitch and over-tosk And lack their early fire. But those who write for England

Go on from strength to strength; They send us for the close of play" Ten thousand words each blessed

Mr. Vargas declared that it is the F.E.A.A. with India, the Nether lands Indies, French Indo-Ching and other countries as members.
