Bradman and McCabe played briskly ’ from the outset, the latter reaching 50 in SO minuted. When the partnership had added 10] McCabe was caught in the slips. Richardson soon went and Bradman was also a victim of Ryan. He gave a . Jess attractive display than usual. The total was then five for 215. Ryan and Alefcer routed the tailenders and the innyigs closed for 245. Gramophone records were broadcast through loud-speakers during the play and the announcer made sly jokes.at the expense of the Australian “rabbits.” Wall broke the county opening part- • n.rship at 14. Rain stopped play for half-an hour, and upon the resumption the wicket was treacherous and wickets fell quickly. Grimmett baffled the batsm'ti, but the last wicket added 11, thereby saving a follow-on. " Walker is showing remarkable form now, not.allowing a bye during the last three innings. Grimmett, with six weeks of the tour left, has already exceeded his 129 wickets taken in 1926. Ponsford and Jackson made 18 in the 15 minutes left for play before etumps.
