SOUTH AFRICAN TOURISTS DRAW WITH GLAMORGAN

CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY BEATEN BY

FREE FORESTERS

London, June 11.

Following their defeat last week, Derbyshire, who, up to then had been leaders of the County Cricket Championship, were displaced by Yorkshire but now the erstwhile leaders have dropped further behind, and another reverse has relegated them to fifth place in the table. They were trounced by Warwickshire in a low scoring match by six wickets after R. E. S. Wyatt, the English captain, made an early declaration.

However, as I have said before, in all competitions there must be a winner and a loser and it was only for this reason that Brawn undeservingly entered the third round of the Open Singles Cham pionship; undeservingly because the standard of bowls was never, with the exception of the third head, worthy of a championship match, but none will deny that
