THE OBSERVER, SUNDAY, AUGUST 21, 1955 Test Cricket Association Football Black Day for London Bv H. A. raws on Racing LOOKING BACK AND FORWARD 12 SMALL ISSUES AT FIELDS, BIG YORK By JOHN HISLOP Bv ALAN ROSS 'T'HE DAVID MOORE receives 5 lb. from Elopement, looks the chief danger. Wednesday's card embraces the Ebor Handicap, the Lowther Stakes, in which La Fresnes and Palariva meei, and the Volugeur Stakes, the race chosen for Acropolis.

There are no Raws in ibe bandteapper work as regards the Ebor Handicap, but be has not been unduly ftarsh on Brilliant Green, winner of the Jockey Club Stakes and narrowly beaten in ihe Park Hill States last year. If she has returned to this form she could win and, though she has not done much this season, it might be worth taking a chance with her, since fillies often beon to improve about now. Star Lyon, Persepohs arid Praetorian look about the best of the others at the weights. La Fresnes finished in front of Palariva al Goodwood, losing ihe race on an objection, but may not do so in Ihis race She has not the best ol knees, as a result of which she was not really galloping smooihly al Epsom her saddle slipped as well), or al Goodwood. York's billiard-table flatness will sun her to perfection and should enable her lo win Acropolis has an easy lasi; in the Volugeur Slakes.

Alibi. II, who appears his chief danger, has quite good form in France and is a winner of boih his races in this country, but Acropol will probably beat him comfortably a necessity if he is lo win the St Leger. As the case ot the Rose of York Slakes, the Great Yorkshire Stakes should be won by Danus at his oest. but he seems to have trained ott. Thunder was well beaten by Alibi 11 at Sandown and has disappointed once or twice before; Scipio and Guide aro good handicappers but no more; (tie French horses, Anadir and New Min arc difficult to sum up; Entente Cordial: a useful and consistent colt, but not in the class of Darius at his best the race seems best left alone as a belting proposmon.

Luccro looks a good bet for the Convivial Stakes. Interesting Entry An interesting; entry in the Harewood Handicap is Crimson, who went to stud yHILE the going at York for this week's meeting is reported perfect, hard training grounds and coughing will keep down the number of runners. Edmundo and Panaslipper are two notable horses who will not run. but Acropolis, Gratitude. Ratification, La Fresnes, Palariva and Pappa Fourway are likely to be seen out.

and the lack of runners will be balanced by their high quality. The meeting opens with the Prince of Wales's Stakes for two-year-olds, which, in the possible absence of Star of India, should be won by Vigo, who ran a fine race behind Rustam and Palariva at Sandown. Next follows the Nunthorpe Stakes, the five-furlong championship of the season. For the last two years this race, which is open to horses ol all ages, has bcen won by hut it seems safe to predict that ihe sequence will be broken by Pappa Fourvsaj. Running over his best distance and in his own county, Pappa Fourway should prove nfroul as easy to calch as lightning, so fjr as his rivals are concerned.

Bred for Speed The most important long-disiancc race on the first day is the Yorkshire Oaks, invariably an interesting event. The acceptances include Ark Royal, Reel In, the Irish Oaks winner Agar's Plough, cilona Nicks, the besi two-year-old filly at 1954. now hack in form, and the French fillies Nemora and Mah Behar. Gloria Nicky receives 12 lh. from Ark Rosjl, hut has never run over a mile anJ a half, svhereas Ark Royal beat Reel In fi tour lengths over this distance at Ascot and finished second in the Oaks.

Though Gloria Nicky is hy Alycidon. who possessed unlimited stamina, her dam is hred lor speed alone; it therefore seems wisest to rely upon Ark Royal's proved ability lo get the course. 1 he Rose ol Y. ork Stakes ends the first day. There are only live horses Iff i in, but among them are Darius, Chamicr and Elopement, who are all British Isles XV Rugby Tour South Africa Win with Ease From A.

Th fa st bow 1 1 ot He: wa a greater threat than probably it should have heen for he always got off to a good start against timid openers, but he, Adcock and Fuller kept going for long periods with determination and life. In batting, the South Africans, except at the Oval, showed a confidence which, even when it proved misleading, contrasted strangely with England's general tcntativeness. As a fielding side, they were cplen-didK exhibitionist, in ihe very best sense, though early on they put down in mmc to the million or so spectators as it was distasteful to the pUcrs.

Darius would wait behind these horses and pass them as it they were telegraph poles, but he is not guile Ihe horse he was.

His courage remains, but he gives ihc impression of having lost some ot his speed, and for the only umc during his career he ran a bad race, last time out, in the King George VI and the tuecn Flizabcth Stakes, lie is hkely to be syndicated as a stallion, so that it is possible that he will noi run; in any case, he seems ralncr an uncertain quantity and is also engaged in ihc Great Yorkshire Stakes. Immortal, in the same siahlc and ownership as Darius, is not in ihe lop class, and Chamier has hren running disappointingly latch This race is Flopemcnt's only engagement at the meeting, which is significant. He has heen running over further distances, but has good speed and is in form, so may win here; Talc of Two Cities, who Undistinguished Day at Lord's A Newmarket View By A SI'FCIAI, CORRESPONDENT a fair number of catches. Ahead of them now they have visits to Canterbury, Lord's, Hastings and Scarborough a he last two being Festival games), all grounds on which they will get, one wishes, as well as give, much pleasure. England this summer have not once looked a distinguished side.

Yet, under Mav a gas bcen complcted that began with the appointment of Hutton to the captaincy in 1952. In this period Australia have been defeated twice. India, New Zealand, and South Africa once each, and drawn series played against West Indies and Pakistan. It is a great record, a fine achievement dourly brought off in the face of many setbacks. In the carlv part Hutton, Compton, and Bcdser were the leading players: in ihe last year May, Cowdrcy, and Compton have sustained the batting, Tyson and Siatham, with help variously from Appleyard, Wardk, Lock, and Bailey, the bowling.

At full strength next summer against ihe Australians the bowling, with Appteyard restored to form. and Wardle and Lock according to conch-irons, as alternatives, and Bailey to support Statham and Tyson, should be as effective as it was in Australia. The batting remains the doubt, as has done for nearly 10 years. Hutton's red cricket bag will, it must be hoped, again grace England's dress- ing room, and Close, of at! those who i have recently gone in first for England, looked more likely at the Oval to be I the man to face LindwaH. Miller, and Aitnti ucal soasou.

ii may, aepend-mg on Appleyard, also on Close, be possible for England to play six batsmen against Australia, in which case Barrington. Milton, Stewart, and Parks, amongst others. witl be making Graveney and Watson fight for the extra place. Trip to Pakistan Next week the players for the winter (rip to Pakistan will be announced. The batsmen mentioned, with the exception of Watson, who is involved in football managerial duties, will all, it is hoped, be included, and Close, whose comparative form on these marginal occasions may save the wasting of time that took place with Kenyon and Lowson this year.

At present, it is the drop between England's first and second XIs that is so steep and which needs to be bridged. May, who. in Hutton's absence, captained England in all five Tests, established himself at Sydney in December as a Test batsman. He is now, as his record against South Africa suggests, on the verge of being a great one. His reign as captain ot England has begun happily he shows every sign of developing into a leader who will be as calculating as ne is at present unaffected and engaging.

learned with Middlesex in last month, and Murray, Middlesex's hke'y wicket-keeper for at least ihe next decade, made plain that hs batting is founded on a solid technique. Young and Titrnus were soon on when Surrey batted on a pitch already du.sty. but Stewart and Clark went cautiously on their way Though Stewart was quick to hook anything at all short, it was not exactly exhilarating. At Young caught and bowled Clark, and May. warmly cheered all the way to the wicket, all but succumbed hrst ball to a delivery of such demonish cunning I hat Young, if seemed, must have been holding it back all season for rust an occasion.

Boys' Golf International Victory for Scots From A Special Correspondent 1 SCOTTISH boys gained an easy victory yesterday over English boys in the international match at Barassie, outside Troon, by eight matches lo two with two halved. Scotland putted better all through on mis gentle seaside course, and it was a putt of 4 yards on the last green by J. B. Burns in the foursomes that robbed England of a single full point in the morninfe. He and J.

Netsh were three down and three to play against J. Beharrell and G. Matsey. but the English pair made mistakes at the next two holes and Burns seized his chance to halve the match at the ISth. B.

J. Aitken and R. Shade scored a fine win in the top match against two old boy internationals. R. F.

Lons and K. Warren. Their start was too bad to last and from the 5th to the 15th, with Shade holing long putts, the Scottish pair wete 7 under fours and won comfortably. Hard Fought A deficit of three points was too much of a burden for England in the afternoon. The top two singles were hard fought and were both square at me iwn.

Aitscn nao a poor drive at ihe 17ih, but pitched on and holed a long down-hill putt to go one up. At ihc last hole Long, who had held on well against the rival captain, went too strongly for the hole and was bunkered. Behind htm Warren had lost his match by driving on to the railway at the 17th. osie lost th ft rst eight hole against Neish who was out in 33, but he showed fighting qualities tn the championship a year ago and won four holes back yesterday before the end. Bon Lh ron a good-looki pla from St.

Andrews, was too strong for G. Marks. M. Rcece, who was an England reserve last year, had a splendid last nine holes and halved his match with Fraser, and Beharrell was two or three under fours when he registered England's first win of the day against Burns.

At half-time the score was 3 3, but it was obvious even in this half that the grinding pressure exerted by a magnificent Springbok pack, was beginning to wear down the British forwards. Piling up 14 points in the first 13 minutes of the second half. South Africa made the result safe, and then it was just a question of hy how many points thev would win. The fact that Souih Africa crossed their opponents' line seven times speaks for itself. At first, on instructions from thetr coach.

D. Craven, their forwards kept play light, and ihere was hardly a South African backs movement to speak of in the opening 40 minutes. In the econd spell, however. Sinclair and Rosenberg, ihc South African centres, were given ample scope to show their penetrative powers ds runners. Van Voltenhoven, a failure at centre in the first Test a( Johannesburg, had a remarkable game at left-wing, scoring ihe first ihree South African tries.

The second was a particularly brilliant effort tn which he beat O'Reilly far out and then cut inside Cameron, who had an unhappy day at full-back. Beaten Forwards The Brilish were unrecognisable as the side thai captivated crowds all over the country, The root cause of their heavy defeal it might have been even heaxicr had Dryburgh, the new South African full-back, been more accurate wim his conersion and penaliv attempts was the inferiority of their forwards, particularly in the loose scrums. Behind a beaten pack the British back division also fell somewhat from grace. Morgan, though doing some admirable retrieving work in defence and trying hard to make openings, dropped loo many passes from Jeeps, and seemed at limes to be disturbed by the close marking of the opposing loose forwards of Acker-mann, a now cap. in particular.

Butterfield and Da vies, so masterful most games on this tour, were well held by some determined tackling on the part of Sinclair and Rosenberg. Against heavy pressure the Brilish made a number of mistakes and weTe poor in defence. O'Reilly, who had scored 13 tries to dale, was outshone by van Vollenhoven. and he lost a great chance of giving Britain a lead at the start of the second half when he failed to hold nis nnai pass in ironi oi an open line. Yachting Fog Stops Racing at Bembridge A FTER a two hours' postponement yesterday afternoon because ol thick fog al Bembridge.

the sailing committee of the Old AjVorld versus New World contest, which is being sailed in yachts of the international six metre class, decided to abandon the second race. Although there was brilliant sunshine, a heavy beat haze hung over Spithead, and from the committee boat the com-pctilors could not be seen. The second race will now be sailed to-day. The New World team has won the only race sailed ro far.

Fngltsh-bred tw.i-ear-olds are too fast for the French-bred ones Palariva was bred in Ireland so that the battle may be between Gratitude and Ratification. The latter won impressively at Ascot and Goodwood, has proved that he can sr.iy six furlongs and is chosen as the probable wnnner. The Gait res Stakes, looks to be between Dark Helen and Alcyone. Dark Helen has good, recent form, but nay noi be so (rue a slaver as Alcvone. I and this might decide the issue in (he 1 favour.

Besides Acropolis (Vohigeur Stakes) and Ark Royal (Yorkshire Oaks) he has some good two-year-old runners, and a very well-bred tilly. Dilettante, who has been working well latejy with La Krcsne, ought to win the Convivial Stakes, which is confined to maidens at starling. Dentate, a big burly youngster hy Denturius, very fj-u, and iust about ready now, is a danger. Danus can show what a great miler he is in the Rose of York Sweepstakes on Tuesday. He ran into all kinds of trouble in me King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Thev knocked corners off him when he tried to make his run and he never saw daylight.

If he wins this easily he may tur.i out again on Thursday for the Great Yorkshire Slakes. 11 conditions are nghl Pappa Fouiway may hanj up a record in ihe Nunihorpe Sweepstakes. Democratic, engaged in two other races can give him a miss this time.
