CRICKET TESTS
ENGLAND AS THE PARENT OF THE GAME.
(United Press Association.—Copyright) (Australian-New Zealand Cable Assn.) (Beceived 23rd March, 11 a.m.) LONDON, 22nd March. The Selection Committee, of which he is chairman, would be stoned to death at the Oval if England did not win the Test rubber, jocularly declared P. F. ("Plum") Warner at a gathering of athletic clubs. He is of the opinion that England has an extraordinarily good chance of beating the Australians. He added that some people thought it was to England's credit that the Australians could beat them, as Britain had taught Australia the game, but he thought that it was a good thing for a parent to occasionally assert his authority.
