TEST WITH AUSTRALIA DISCUSSED. HOBBS PESSIMISTIC. (UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION— 11T ELECTSIC TELEOBArn—COPTBIOHT.) LONDON, June 5. J. B. Hobbs, writing in tho "Sunday Dispatch." says: England must have young blood for the Australian tour, but the outlook is not rosy. G. D. Kemp-Welch (Cambridge and Warwickshire) at present is resting, owing to an injury. He is a fine natural niaver and will most likely go to Australia. E. Hendren (Middlesex) ought to be a certainty, and A. bandham (Surrey), when m bis best form, is most capable of partnering H. butoliffe (Yorkshire). Ido not expect A. P Freeman (Kent) to be selected, although he is taking wickets with monotonous regularity. L G Crawlev, writing in the "bundav' Dispatch,''' expresses the opinion ?ha y t there &mld be no difficulty in finding number one. "If no outstanding youngsters appears," he says, l hear a suggestion that Hobbs may go to Australia to play in the Tests M W Tate, in an article in "Reynold's' Illustrated •■News," is of the opinion that W. W. Keeton (Notts) may be a worthy substitute for Hobbs.
