OBJECTION TO HIS KEEPING HOTEL ROUSES CRICKETER’S ANGER. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Aus. and N.Z. Cable Association. LONDON. November 3. The “Daily Express" says the Warwickshire County Cricket Committee has written to Howell, the fast bowler,
objecting to his keeping a public-house. Howell has accordingly resigned from the county eleven, considering the objection to be insulting and offensive The club's letter mentioned that there was a clause in Howell's agreement stipulating that he must be physically lit in April, 1927. Howell says he is playing football twice weekly, and he fails to see why publicans, because they sell drink, should be regarded as unable to keep physically fit.
