HARDSTAFF IN ACCIDENT
AN UNFORTUNATE MOTORIST (From Our? Own Correspondent) (By Air Mail) LONDON, Nov. 7. Joe Hardstaff, the Notts and England cricketer, who will tour in New Zealand with Sir Julien Cahnjs team, was involved in a road accident last week and taken to hospital. He was driving his car out of Nottingham when lie was involved in a collision with a cyclist. His car struck a street island, was in collision with a car, and finally hit a wall. An ambulance conveyed Hardstaff to hospital, where the injured leg was X-rayed. After attention he was allowed to go home.
Hardstaff appears to be unfortunate as a motorist. Last June he was kept out of the first test against Australia. He was doing some repairs to his car when a spanner slipped, cut his thumb and bruised his forearm. The previous summer, when Hardstaff played in the Lord's test against New Zealand, he was entering his garage when a beam above the door fell on his nose.
