LONDON, 20fch January,
Lord . Hawk?, interviewed, said: "England lias not had the best of luck in the. Test matches. I do not say we have got our old sid<v but our, players are ,not ...young. Australia .discarded niosfc: of her old players, and her youngsters are evidently pretty good. I. am afraid, our youngsters tire not quite'of the same character." ■"'"-'■: ■''•■■'! ■■''■-
He declined' to Re dirawn into a controversy regarding the English captain's tactics, but add^d : "I have something to . say regarding the players writing, criticisms of the. play for the newspapers. Just you wait until Tuesday, when I shall speak at the annual meeting of the Yorkshire Club. l My mini is made up on this point, and. when the Test match teams are selected in England this summer it will not be foTgotten. Another thing is that we must "put 'an end to this disputing of the umpire's decisions. When a man is out leg-before he must not stand' in the crease, and ai'gue, but take the decision as final, and retire as a true sportsman! On this poin.t, too, more will be said on Tuesday." :
