CRICKET CONTROVERSY

M.C.C. TRUE TO FORM Leading Cricketer’s Opinion (Aus. & N.Z Cable Assn.) SYDNEY, June. .14. Erii- Barbour, a leading cricket authority in Sydney, writing to the Sydney “Alorning Herald,” says: — “We have to tha.uk the Board of Control for its masterly inactivity. In allowing Alarylebone to frame a report on the body-line bowling, solely from the evidence of its own men. In that, respect Alarylebone has run true to form. 'Flip Board of Control here has been guilty of neglect in a primary duly to maintain the dignity of Australian cricket and has allowed the minds of the ALC.C. to bo distracted between a sense of lovalty and a sense of duty to the game. ALC.C. Ims been swayed by the reports of Wa-rner, Palairot, and Jardine, into an attitude from which it will find it diflieult to withdraw. ’ ’ MELBOURNE. June 11. Prominent cricket administrators declare that it will not be surprising if the Loudon representatives of the Board of Control are instructed to discontinue arrangements far the next tour of England by an Australian eleven. The AE.report will be. considered by the Board of Control on Sept ember 21st.
