OUT FOR NEW ZEALANDERS

LOWEST TOTAL OF TOUR

London, May 11.-The New Zealanders did not pay suffi- cient respect to the Surrey bowling at The Oval today, Con- sequently, on their first appearance in London they were dismiss ed for 258 runs, their lowest all out total of the tour.

When Surrey went in, however, the tourists retaliated by tak-

ing five wickets for 121 by the close of play.

There was much to admire in the excellent stroke play of the New Zealanders, but considering that Sutcliffe and Scott opened with a stand of 99, they should have done much better.

Bad judgment in trying to steal singles from such a smart cover point as Squires cost them two wickets and seven of the remaining eight wickots were shared by the spin bowlers, McMahon and. Laker.

McMahon turned his left arm

he dismissed five men for 73.

The day began with a klo}|- ous display of driving and hook- ing by the left-hander Sutcliffe. who with one six and nine fours made 83 out of 118 in one hour and 50 minutes. His fellow left-hander, Donnelly, was never comfortable, but Hadlee and Mooney both hit well.

AWKWARD LIFT Surrey found the New Zealand bowling difficult, both Cresswell Cave making the ball and awkwardly, Cresswell sent back Fishlock and Eric Bedser for 30, but Squires, with a fine. array of clean strokes, made runs at- tractively while adding 61 with his captain, M. Barton

After an uncertain start, Bar- fine examplo ton pat his sido by staying a hundred minutes. Whitaker and McIntyre fell cheaply, and Surrey finished 137 runs behind with half

wickets standing.

John Langridge His

Hits

Fourth Century

London, May 11-The feature of today's cricket- programme was undoubtedly the performance of 39-year-old John Langridge in hitting his fourth successive century for Sussex to bring his aggregate near to the 500-mark with May less than a fortnight old.

Another outstanding performance, of course, was that of Middlesex, on whose behalf three men passed the century.

Langridge batted with all the vigour of a much younger man during his stay of three hours 50 minutes, but he found the boundary only ten times, so had to run for the majority of his runs.

Later in the day, the Sussex captain, Hugh Bartlett, Ilved up to his reputation for being

"Spare

Wheels"

Of Baseball

BY STEVE SNIDER

Probably the most unglamorous guys in baseball today are the "spare wheels" who understudy the stars until things go wrong. They can win pennants but rarely a fancy personal reputation.

譬

Both leagues are full of spare wheels who scarce- ly rate a line in the spring-the way it used to be with relief pitchers until experts like Joe Page and Hugh Casey began to snag bold-faced headlines and became Honest-to-Pete-glamour boys.

Not Much Wrong With British Professional Golf

"SAYS ARCHIE QUICK

Good news for British professional golf is that porky Ittle Welshman Dai Rees is fully restored to health after his operation for appendicitis and Es already fighting for a place in the Ryder Cup team. On present form he seems a certainty.

He told me at Moor Park, where the first professional tournament of the six months' season was held, that he is hitting the ball further than ever, just as straight and, what is more important, his putting has improved. Rees did a magnificent 67 at Moor Park.
