MILDDLESEX OUT FOR 150

Australia 212 For Five (Rec. 1 a.m.) LONDON, July 21. A new ball attack by the Middlesex bowler. Moss, claimed two Australian wickets soon after play was resumed at Lord’s today. Miller went after adding 11 to his over-night score of 60, when he played over a ball which moved slightly in the air. Moss took his fourth wicket in the next over, when he knocked Hole’s leg stump back as Hole attempted to turn the ball to leg. The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh went to Lord's yesterday afternoon to watch the play. At the end of the tea interval the Royal couple went out to meet the two teams lined up in front of the pavilion. Scores:—
