♦ INCIDENTS OK CRICKET MATCH IN SYDNEY On Saturday the M.C.C. team were batting with no very great success against New South Wales at Sydney. Some incidents of the play are shown in photographic illustrations on Page 10 of this issue of “The Press.” The photographs were brought to New Zealand yesterday by Mr Ernie Clark, who flew from Sydney to Christchurch yesterday. They had been taken in Sydney on Friday and Saturday. The publication of the pictures is a very convincing proof of the great saving of time and the very great improvement in communication that would be possible if a regular air service or regular air services across the Tasman Sea could be established. The photographs are the first to be published in a New Zealand newspaper of a cricket match in Australia along with the cabled description of the incidents to which they relate.
