BRADMAN’S STRONG LETTER.
Says Body-line Bowling may Kill Cricket.
ANOTHER OFFER FROM ENGLAND.
(United Press Association.—J3y Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) (Received March 8, 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, March 7. THE SECRETARY of the Rochdale Club has disclosed | that Don Bradman, since refus- § ing the club’s previous offer, has 1 written promising a definite 1 “ Yes ” or “No ” if the offer is | renewed about January 1, 1934. “My contract ends on February 1, 1934. I don't want to leave Australia, but if prospects are bad and incomparable with what I could expect in England, I would not hesitate to go. The Australian touring team in 1934 may not eventuate if the conflicts continue, for body-line bowling may kill all cricket under the Marylebone Club’s control, unless they ban it.” The secretary cabled Bradinan: “Can you accept definitely by June 30, 1933? A hearty welcome awaits you.”
