FIGURES DISREGARDED
Selection Of Wyatt In Preference To Paynter. M.C.C.'S'. AUSTRALIAN TOUR. Press Association—Copyright. (Received Noon To-day). London, August 30. The Sunday' Dispatch's writer says: "ilt does not seem that our selectors arc ever influenced by figures. They have chosen It. E. S. Wyatt to replace E. R. T. Holmes in the team for Australia instead of Paynter Paynter, adds the writer, appears a? fifth on the batting list and Wyatt is in thirty-seventh position. Neither of the players appears on the bowling list. "Perhaps," he concludes, "another amateur was needed to complete a bridge four." Two weeks before leaving for Australia with the IVIC.C. team, the English cricketer, Fagg, has married Miss Edith Violet Leavers.
