EXTRA TESTS
REPORTED ALTERATION
. A further cabled message from England indicates that tho second cricket Test, England v. New Zealand, is to be played at Manchester, and the third Test at the Oval. In the first-place the information was that the second Test would take the place of the SurreyNew Zealand match at the- Oval and the third Test would be played on the dates allotted for the tourists' return match with Lancashire. If the latest advice is correct, the changes have probably been made to avoid a clash with the series of,school matches which are being played at Lord's for about two weeks from the 27th July, and to add further to the interest in the third and deciding Test by having it played at the Oval. In playing the second Test at . Manchester, however, the New Zealand team will be faced with a rush trip ./from Bournemouth, where they meet Hampshire in the return match during the three playing days immediately preceding the second Test.
