"THE GROUND STAFF"
LONDON, May 16. "Australian pressmen made a fjfiendly, man-to-man talk with Jardine into a squabble. I don't know how they heard about it," said Maurice Tate in an interview. "I and others accepted the selectors' decision. If we chipped each other with a bit of leg-pulling, it wasn't anything nasty about the captain. " 'The ground staff, 1 as we called ourselves, were'too good sportsmen to say anything to annoy our pals: When I said that I felt I wasn't wanted, I meant that I wasn't needed in tho side, and didn't we whack 'em!"
