The County Cricket Championship appears to be more open this

Crawford White, the Cricket Correspondent of the Newa Chronicle has already as clear-cut winners. ataked his reputation that Yorkshire will finish the season While not sharing his belief to the same degree, I am inclined to agree that 1960 will again see Yorkshire at the top of the table, although not necessarily with a large margin of points in hand.

Which sport or pastime has the greatest following in Grent Britain? It is hard to assess, but cycling must be in the first half-dozen.

London, May 1-The English first-class cricket sen- son, after a complete washout on Saturday, got under way today in bright sunny weather.

The honour of scoring the first century of the sca- son went to David Sheppard, who made 130 for Cam- bridge University against his old County, Sussex.

GRAND WELCOME HOME FOR LIVERPOOL

Liverpool, May 1-The welcome given to the Liver- pool football team beaten Cup finalists last Satur day when they returned to the City tonight could hardly have been greater had they brought the Cup with them.

A crowd estimated at about 120,000 thronged the station and the two-inile route to the ground at Anfield to welcome the party of players, wives and officials who rode in three coaches from the station.

When the train reached Liver-! pool 20,000 people Burged against the crush barriers, and when the leading coach came out of the station, with the players standing through the sunshine roof, there was a ler- rific roar and a sea of waving rosettes and bunting..
