CRICKET PROSPECTS
LORDS HARRIS AND HAWKE CONFIDENT. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, July 19. (Received July 20, at 9.10 a.m.) Lord Harris, in presiding over the cricketers’ 'fund meeting at Lords, said that cricket to a great extent had recovered from tho war depression. Enthusiasm for the game was never greater. Lord Harris said that he did not at all agree with Mr Justice Moulo, who had said in Australia that ho feared English cricket was decaying. Lord Ilawko said that personally ho could see no evidence of decay in England, though it was only by a shave that England won the rubber in South Africa. An amateur eleven did well against very strong sides in Australia. Good bowlers were coining on. He thought that in the future England would be as strong as ever.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
