Old Trafford, Manchester, May 27.-The Aus- tralian cricket tourists were dismissed for 204 runs in their match with Lancashire, which began here today after one blank day because of rain.

At the close of play the county had scored 108 runs for 3 wickets in reply.

Cranston continued with his two slow bowlers-Hilton and Roberto-when play was resumed after lunch with the score nt 83 for 4. Both commanded respect, but more because of their accurate length than any mysterious pro- perties of the pitch.

After a lime, the batsmen selfled down and Loxton drove filton for six, the young bowler conceding 20 Funs in an over. Loxin hit several other boundaries in a vigorous 30 before Roberts deceived him. The fifth wicket minutes.

ENGLAND'S MOST SUCCESSFUL CONTINENTAL SOCCER TOUR

As England's professionals return from their continental tour with an unbeaten récord, Great Britain's amateur footballers are now working hard at the serious business of preparation for the Olympic Games.

"

England's touring party of seventeen professional footballers is probably back hom, again after its most successful continental tour.

A full international match with Italy at the Municipal Stadium in Turin on Whit Sunday ended in a 4-0 victory for England.

The two other matches, which were not full internationals, also resulted in English victories.

BADMINTON FINALS

Robert Tay The New Colony Champion

Saul And Gillies Win Junior Doubles

Robert Tay of Sing Tao beat his team-mate, Patrick Wong, a former Colony Champion, by a score of 2-15, 16-4, 16-12 at the Kowloon Cricket Club last night to win the Senior Singles Badmin- ton Championship.

The gallery was tested to one of the finest exhibitions of badminton seen this year, barring the Malayan visitors, but the standard of play revertheless left much that could be desired.

Both Tay and Patrick Wong showed considerable, understanding of courtcraft but neither made much attempt at attacking his opponent's backhand and the returns, other than for the excellent drop shots when .they came off, were easy enough.

Wong set a terrific pace in the Oliveira and Miss Mylthio Silva of first game to win casily at 15-2 but Recrelo at 12-15, 15-8, had well shot his bolt by the time
