CRICKET.
A QUESTION OF FAIR BOWLING.
LONDON, November 1,
The newspapers commend Mr Phillips1 action in "no balling". Jones. Tne "Daily News"' considers he deserves, the thanks of all good cricketers. Had the umpires similar courage in Crossland's (the Lancashire bowler's) day, the throwing nuisance would have long since been abolished. The " Times," expresses the hope that since Mr Phillips has broken the stolid indifference, other umpires will follow his example and prevent unfair bowling.
