Moore, captain of the Hampshire county cricket eleven has become famous during the last three days in consequence of his great inn- ings against Warwickshire, when he scored 316, the biggest innings of the season, one run short of the record 1936 score by Walter Hammond and six

runs better than Bill Ashdown's knock for Kent against Derbyshire in 1935.

This is the Arst time in his career that Moore has played an inalags higher than the century mark. His runs were made out of a total of 509, and the ferbelly of his batting can be better judged when

The defeat of this pair, holders of the doubles cups at Wimbledon, was, by the way, one of the surprises of thic tournament, but I gather that Miss Stammers is still not quite and that is perhaps one reason why Miss Sériven beat her in the singles, The

second pair will most likely be Miss Dearman and Miss Ingram,

Miss Lumb is a greatly improved and improving player, chosen possi bly on the strength of the set she took off Senorita A.
