The newspapers are giving prominence to the “sufferings” of two of the wives of South African cricketers, Mesdames Cameron and .Sieflel, who are in London, but are parted from their cricketing husbands by an implacable decree of the South African Eelection Committee that ladies must not see their husbands more than once a week. They must not travel in the same train, stay at the same hotel as their husbands, or enter the pavilion while a match is in progress. “It is like being engaged all over again,” said Mrs Cameron. “Our husbands take us out to dinner, and see us home, but they leave us on the doorstep.” MELBOURNE, May 14. The Board of Control has agreed that the Marylebone cricket team to tour New Zealand in 1935-36 will play matches in Australia before the team goes to New Zealand. New Zealand will receive five per cent, of the profits. MELBOURNE. May 14. Regarding the message cabled earlier, the statement that New Zealand would receive five per cent. o'profits, is not authoritative.
