The South Africans yesterday consolidated their position in the Fifth Cricket Test against the M.C.C. at Durban, and at close of play were a long way ahead of the tourists. Had three quick wickots not fallen just before stumps were drawn,tion their position would have been even better.

Bruce Mitchell and P. G. Van Der Byl, opening the South Africans' second innings, took the score, to 191 before being separated, but without any addition to the total, three wickets those of Mitchell, Van Der Byl and E. A. Rowan- fell. The South Africans are now already 407 runs in the lead, and a stiff task for M.C.C. in the fourth innings is assured.'

Van Der Byl, who made 125, in the first innings, scored 97 yesterday, missing by three runs the distinction of being the first South African to score a century in each innings in a Test.
