ATTACK

Twenty-three year-old R. H. Moore, captain of the Hampshire county cricket eleven has become famous during the last three days in consequence of his great inn- inga against Warwickshire, when ho scored 316, the biggest innings of the season, one run short of the record 1936 score by Walter Hammond and six runa better than Bill Ashdown's knock for Kent against Derbyshire in 1935.

Moore, who will be 24 in Novem- ber next, captained Hampshire last season, his
