SECOND TEST MATCH ENDS IN DRAW AT MANCHESTER

ENGLAND MAKES VAIN EFFORT TO FORCE WIN

TOURISTS' DISASTROUS SECOND INNINGS START

England, after dismissing the West Indies for 133 runs in the first innings, attempted to force a win in the Second Test match at Manchester yesterday by declaring the second innings at 128 for six wickets, leaving the West Indies with 70 minutes to get 160 runs to win. generally expected, the game ended in a draw.

But as

At close of play, the tourists had scored only 43 runs for the loss of the wickets of R. S. Grant (who was out first ball), George Headley (who scored only five), J. B. Stollmeyer and G. Gomez.

Manchester, July 25. The Second Test Match between England and the West Indies, aeri-i ously interfered with by rain for two days, entered the last stage to-day in glorious weather, but the wicket was soft from last night's rain and the start had to be delayed half an hour.

Dismissing the visitors for 133. England had a lead of 31 in the first Innings and in the second innings their opening batsmen had collected 11 runs at lunch time.

WEST INDIES' POOR START· · This declaration left the West Indies in the position of having to score 160 runs in 70 minutes for victory.

The tourists made a disastrous start to their second Innings. Grant, their eaptain, who opened with Stollmeyer, was caught by Hardstaff at backward point off the first ball, sent down by Bowes. Worse was to come. George Headley, the batting mainstay of the side, was caught by Ilammond, off Copson, after making only five.

FURTHER PROGRESS IN OPEN PAIRS, SINGLES BOWLS CHAMPIONSHIPS

(By "Abe'"')"

་

Further progress was made, in the Colony Bowls Championship yesterday when one match in the Third round of the Pairs and seven in the First Round of the Singlas wore decided.

The Pairs match resulted in victory, by the narrowest possible. margin, for N. P. Karanjin and E. Zimmern, over J. C. Remedios and C. C. Pereira, the final score being 10-18. The sue was deelded on the last head, a single giving the Craigen- gower C.C. pair the match.

By scoring a two on the third, n aix on the fourth and a single on the Ofth, Remedios and Pereirn led 10-1 und they kept their noses in front all the way until the 20th head when the scores were tied at 18-19.. They led 10-7 on the 8th, 14-7 on the 11th, 16-10 on the 15th, but a three on the 16th and a four on the 10th enabled Kuran)la and Zimmern to level the scores at 17-17,

However, the Portuguese took the Icad again with a single on the 10th, only, to see their opponents reply with a single on the 20th, and it was left to the last head for the issue to be decided. The Happy Valley ployers managed to take a single-the only occasion during, the whole match in which they were ahead!

The most one-sided match in the Singles was that in which J. S. Lan- delt, of the Craigengewer C.C., de- feated C. II. Basto, of the Club de Recreio, by 21-2. The match went only 12 heads,
