COUNTY CRICKET

YORKS PAIR PUT UP 302 FOR 2nd WICKET

London, Aug. 11.-Rain curtailed play in many of the County cricket matches today.

There was no play in the Middlesex-Glamor- gan and Essex-Kent matches, and no play after lunch in three other games.

The Derbyshire captain put Yorkshire in to bat on what seemed a "green" wicket when he won the toss at Scarborough. Rarely has a cricket gamble been so unfor tunate in its result.

Len Hutton fell through a mistimed drive at 45 after an hour's play, but no further wicket fell for two and three-quarter hours.

The two lefthanders, Watson and Wilson, shared in a

Yugoslavia Beats Britain In Soccer Semi-Final

London, Aug. 11.-Yugoslavia qualified to meet Sweden in the final of the Olympic soccer tournament by beating Great Britain by three goals to one in the second semi-final in the Olympic Stadium hero tonight.

Conditions were all in Britain's favour. The pitch was soft and slippery and the ball heavy and wel, but Tito's men, the surprise of the soccer tournament, were n shade too good for the home team, and ran out worthy winners,"

Play was not up to the standard of the first semi-final, in which Sweden defeated a grim-battling Danish team, and few expect the Yugoslavs to hold the powerful Swedish team when they meet on Friday.

It was a fast and open game and quite entertaining for the 20,000 spectators who came to watch under wretched conditions, but play never really reached great heights. The chief asset of the

And scoring opportunities had they been a little steadier.

There WOR not an cutstanding player on either side, it being al- together a question of teamwork, with the Yugoslavs the better.

It was not until the 20th minute that a goal was scored, and then two came in five minutes.

"Broken Time"

For Soccer

Amateurs

London, Aug. 11.-The Football Association (Eng- land) have decided in cer- tain cases to make "reason- able payments" to amateur footballers in respect of loss of remunerative time through playing football.

This concession is res-> tricted for the present to cases of hardship, where the loss has been proved as a result of taking part in or training for a Football “ Association representative match. Consideration of the extension of the right to make such payments to cover other games has been deferred for two years.

The FA are to consult the other British National Associations on the general question of "broken time." -Heuter.
