BRADMAN AS ACTOR
CRICKETERS’ PRODUCTION
ADELAIDE, T?ec. 17.
The Theatre Royal was crowded last night to witness a play entitled “It Ain’t Cricket,” written by Kerwin Maegraith and produced by Harold Card. A feature of the play* was the part played by Don Bradman. Arthur Mailey did some topical sketches. The hitting of autographed tennis balls into the audience by Bradman and the selling at auction of an autographed bat were other incidents of the performance. V. Y. Richardson’s unsuccessful efforts to throw one of the balls to the Governor, Sir Alexander Hore-Ruthven, and Lady Hore-Ruthven in the dress circle amused the audience. The performance was in aid of the Ernest Jones testimonial fund,. ,
