Middlesex Increase

Lead In County Table

NORTHANTS DRAW

WITH SURREY

London, May 20.-Northamptonshire's failure to gather any points from their match against Surrey which ended today, means that Middlesex's quick victory over Leicestershire yesterday has increased their lead in the Championship table from four to 16 points.

Middlesex have won three of their four matches and taken first innings points from the. other for a total of 40 points. Next in the table with 24 points cach, come Northamp- tonshire, Warwickshire and Yorkshire.

Northants have played four matches and won two. Warwickshire, who did not have a match in the present serics, have won two out of three, and Yorkshire's victory over Somerset has given them full points from two matches.
