8 THE MANCHESTER GUARDIAN MONDAY JULY 21 1958 Cricket Lawn Tennis Marshall thrashes Lancashire's bowling Shackleton takes his 100th wicket BY TONY GOODRIDGE Shadow of Italy cast over French defeat By David Gray Even though Britain's European Zone Davis Cup semi-final against France has been safely won in two days, enough questions remained to be answered at the Northern Lawn Tennis Club on Saturday to make a lively afternoon's watching. First there was the matter of the clean sheet: Not a single match nad been lost in tne two previous ues and Britain was leading 3-0 at tne start of ne day's play. Could this fine record be The reply was handsome and. at the end. tne sneet could nardly have been washed wiiter.

FL K. Wilson, confident almost to the point of tyranny, defeated P. Reaiy 6-3, 8-6. 6-4 and W. A.

Knight, taking over from M. G. Davies and nitting most brutally, beat P. Darinon fi-'. 4-6.

6-3. 9-7. Another 5-0 victory. The bJttle against France, was not. however, the only struggle of tae afternoon.

The county championship cricket match at Bournemouth on Saturday between Hampshire and Lancashire was a well-deserved benefit for Hampshire's fast bowler.

D. Shackleton. and the seal was set on a thoroughly enjoyable cricketing occasion by the fact that Shackleton, when bowling Pullar. took his 100th wicket of the season, a performance that he has now accomplished in ten successive seasons. There were other things also to give pleasure to the large crowd on this beautiful fir-lined i7rmlnri on a lni-lv Barber and the forshrightness of Grieves, who added another 92 runs for the fifth wicket before the latter was caught at square leg off Burden.

This Hampshire off-spinner took the remain-ine: five wickets as well and came out of the innings with the very useful figures of six wickets for 47 runs over-all. although the wickets actually went to him for 34 runs. That was very accurate bowling but. in view of the subsequent impotence of Lancashire's spin-bowlirte. it is not unreasonable lo infer that Burden was helped in some degree by faulty batting.

Even Barber, after three hours SO minutes of attractive and solid stroke-making, was out to an unclassified stroke and one unworthy of his repertoire, for very flrm-footedly and without being over the boll he sought to push -Burden away from him and almost Inevitably wns caught at point. Marshall and Gray, running splendidly between the wickets, moved with disarming ease to 65 before Hilton found the edge of Gray's bat with a ball that moved verv sharplv -across, him. As if to show that this must not happen again Marshall hit him for a six and three fours in his next over and then, with Heath settled back to await a new day.

Pride of place must gb to an unnnisnea innings oi devastating ferocity by Marshal! who so far has made 83 out of the 122 runs for cine wicket which Hampshire have "made ill reply to Lancashire's 211.

In the making of his runs Marshall has batted for 100 minutes and has hit one six and eleven fours. The side's 50 went up in 55 minutes and the 100 in 120 minutes, at which time Marshall had made 76. There was also a splendid fighting, watchful innings bv Barber for Lancashire and a supporting, but highly valuable, contri bution oy uneven wnen earner was unable to find anyone else to stay with him Apart from these two. Lancashire, for whom Washbrook won the toss for what was only the second time in sixteen matches, batted indifferently. It is true mat ootn ana uray appeared to be moving the ball late, and certainlv the former bowled both Wharton and Pullar with balls of superb length that moved from the leg stump and took the off one.

With four wickets down for 53, Lancashire owed much to the steadfastness of MAY AND E. A.

On a day of sustained sunshine and on a wicket cut closer than the hair of any permanent inmate of a state penitentiary Surrey amassed the splendid total of 274 at The Oval and then removed one of Yorkshire's opening batsmen in a testing last hour.

A crowd of over twelve thousand watched the match which had been earmarked as E. A. Bedser's benefit in the late afternoon it was augmented by so many pigeons that The Oval looked like a bird sanctuary. Had.Peter Scott been umpiring at that end of the ground and not F. S.

Lee the illusion would have been complete? Having won the toss Surrey began comfortably against Trueman and Cowan but inside half an hour, by which time there had arisen from the wicket a cloud of dust the size of a man's hand, Burnet had brought on Wardle and Illingworth. Illingworth promptly dismissed two batsmen in three deliveries a he repeated later in the day and the crowd was left in no doubt that the wicket was "doing as it happened, however, only Illingworth provided the proof. Parsons, a Cambridge Blue who has discarded amateur status, batted soundlv for most of the morning, getting well over or behind the ball and deriving much pleasure and inspiration from the presence of May at the other end. Comparisons and superlatives have long since been exhausted on May's' batting. There just cannot be anything original to "sav or write about it.

The records will show that he scored 155 and hit a six. a flawless off-drive against Wardle. and seventeen fours, and one doubts whether anybody could have cared how long he batted. Time is of no consequence with May's batting at The Oval or anywhere else on a perfect day in summer. Nobody can set a field for him and nobody can hope to get him out cheaply when inspiration visits him as it did on Saturday.

Gardner equalled Robinson's Games and British national records of 9.5sec. with hand- some ease and Robinson himself and Jeffreys did 9.6sec. In the semi-finals, however, it was the other way about, with Robinson again returning 9 5sec. and Gardner 9.6sec. The worst time was 9.8sec.

and two poor wretches, Jeffreys and Hogan, found 9.7sec. useless. In the final they were awav together, but Gardner was fantastically quick into his running and led by a yard at 60 yards, a distance for which he is joint world's record holder Robinson countered with COUNTY CRICKET SCOREBOARD tnrougn tnat Italy had gained a winning lead against Poland and therefore, the Italians, w.io had not lost a Davis Cud tie at none for ten years, would be Britain's opponents in the zone final in Milan early next montn. The shadow of this meeting had always been cast over the matcn against France, and. once victory was assured, it became longer than ever.

If Wilson and Knight were playing afainst Remv and Darmon on Saturday thev were also contending for the right to play in the singles at Milan. By past achievement, Davies. even thougn he is not at his best at the moment, has probably made one singles place his own, but choosing the man for tne other is obviously going to be a difficult matter By his fine performance at Wimbledon and the quality of his play against France. Wilson may now seem to have first claim. The match will be played on a hard court and he is happier on grass.

Knight, on the other hand, has had more experience of playing in front of partisan Continental crowds and he is also the holder of the British hard court championship. Unluckily for him. his match against Darmon could hardly be described as one of his best. If he served with tremendous power and attacked doggedly throughout, his vulnerability to steady probing on the back hand was demonstrated once again, and Darmon gained considerable profit from the weak shots Knight made on this wing. No doubt the team's performance in the Swiss championships this week will count for something in the solution of the selection problems.

Italy, who had alreadv oainerf a winning lead, completed a 4-1 victory over Poland in the European zone Davis Cup lawn tennis semi-final in Warsaw. BECKER'S VICTORY R. Becker, a British Davis Cup player, won the Welsh lawn tennis singles championship for the first time at Newport (Mon.) on Saturday, beating A. R. Mills, an English international.

6-4. 6-4. Becker's powerful service was the decisive factor. Mills used the court cleverly and often beat Becker with well-placed shots. Golf SURREY AGAIN CHAMPIONS By Pat Ward-Thomas Surrey retained the county golf championship with some ease on Saturday when they beat Warwickshire 6-3 on the Red Course at the Berkshire.

This confirmed that Surrey are much the most powerful county at present, even without Micklem and Scrutton in the side. Last year they won without Sewell and now with him to lead the side they looked a formidable combination. Tne basis of victory was soon established the foursomes. Sewell and Evans, allies and rivals these many years in the high places of the artisan world, made only one slip against Sutherland and Walton and were several under fours whpn tnpv itjnr, tlta weu and Slark were hardly as menacing suoiug tne nrsi noie, were loo steady for Skreritt and Whitworth. Thus Surrey led 2-1 at lunch and long before the middle of the hot, still afternoon were a position of command.

Caldwell, in particular, played beautifully and. Walton, a consistently steady golfer with a compact three-quarter swing, was decidedlv unlucky. He played the first, second, and fiftn in par and lost them all. Caldwell turned in 32 and was Sewell ahead had begun Untldilv hilt frcim fho deadly Kroove so familiar on these iicaniidati courses.

Rugby League GREAT BRITAIN Australia 17. Great Britain 40 Sydney, July 19. Great Britain made sure of retaining the Ashes when she won her Rugby League Test match with Australia here to-day by eight goals and eight tries to four goals and three tries. Unprecedented scenes occurred after the final whistle. The crowd pelted the referee.

J. Casey of Queensland, with all K.nds of fruit and rubbish A bottle was among the missiles Casey had angered the crowd, which numbered 69.000. by allowing a trv bv Sullivan, who touched down after Southward had appeared to obstruct Moir, an Australian wing three-quarter. Police stationed themselves around the ground but the spectators confined the expression of their displeasure to throwing things. There was no further violence.

The disputed try made no difference to the result, Britain was a worthy winner. She was on top throughout and repeatedly baffled the Australian defence with their speed and handling. Murphy. Britain's stand-off half, was the man of the match. He scored an unforgettable try.

twice beating a would-be tackier. Wells, on the Australian 25 and then hurtling on past the full-back to score. Fraser. the full-back, too, was outstanding. His goal-kicking with one exception, was excellent.

He kicked eight goals, bringing his total for the Australian phase of the tour to 77 in ten matches. Southward scored a grand try for Britain within nine minutes of the kick-off.

Reports had it that May was sufferina from a slight injury in his back but no one, least of all Yorkshire, would have believed it E. A.

Bedser celebrated the occasion with a compact, often belligerent innings and helped Mav materially in a splendid three-figure stand before Trueman brought an end to the innings amid dust and flying stumps. Yorkshire rightly had their share of applause. Their ground fielding was" of a high quality, the leg-trap missed nothing, and Illingworth bowled his off-spinners intelligently and consistent' for very long periods. He did enough to strengthen his claim for a place in M.CC.'s party for Australia, although whether he will find wickets there comparable with that at The Ova is extremely doubtful, Surrey followers ave him generous recognition, but the hapDiest man undoubtedly was E.

Spracklen, saved English rowing from a complete eclipse in the rowing events of the Empire Games which commenced at Lake Padarn on Saturday. Baker and Spracklin are members of the Marlow Rowing Club, one ol the smaller clubs on the upper Thames reaches, and are the lightest pair at the regatta, weighing only 21 stones. The conditions on Saturday were not in their favour for they had to scull against a strong headwind and through rough water, but they put up a splendid performance in beating pairs from Canada and South Africa. It was a big disappointment to Enelish supporters when their representatives the eights (Thames) were outpaced bv the British Columbia crew from Canada which passed the post ten lengths ahead of England who. in turn was about six lengths ahead of Northern Ireland, represented by Queen's University.

Belfast. The other heat in the eights was won bv Australia who. after passing the 1.000 metre mark rwo lengths ahead of Scotland, was able to drop to a strong paddle. 2426, and stHl retain the lead. Another English disappointment was the ooxed fours when the Barn Cottage crew was beaten by Canada with New Zealand in the third position.

The English crew led for 750 metres, but then the Canadians forged ahead and won by about 3i lengths with New Zealand a very long way tire rear. As was expected. S. Mackenzie, of Australia, did not have much trouble in winning his heat of the single sculls. He was three lengths ahead of D.

F. Meineke of South Africa, at the 1,500 metres and he won. easing up. by three-quarters of a length. The English representative, R.

D. Carver (First and Third Trinity) failed in his heat against J. R. Hill, the New Zealand champion. Single Sculls HEAT ONE.

But Britain increased her lead with a penalty goal by Fraser and a try, after a break-through by Terry, to which Fraser added goal points. Then it was Australia's turn and Provan crossed for a try to which Clifford added the goal points. Britain came again, however, and was awarded a penalty in front of the posts. Traser kicked his fourth goal. The pace of the game brougnt crop of incidents.

Holman and Karalius were cautioned after one skirmish Soon afterwards Holman burst through for a good try and Clifford added the goal points, thus bringing Australia witmn two points of Britain at half-time. After the break Australia improved and almost got on top. but Murphy scored his brilliant try and received loud cheers from the spectators who were never slow to express their feelings, either of pleasure or disDieasure. This unsettled Australia, and a few minutes later Whiteiey went over and Fraser added tne goal points. Then came smmvans disputed try, followed by a try from Davies.

Fraser added the eoal points to the latter try, and Britain led U-1Z witn tne end arawing near. Haw.ek soothed the now sorely displeased crowd with another trv for Australia and Clifford kicked his fourth goal, but Britain had the last word Two more tries came, irom Whiteiey ana Sullivan, and Fraser added the goal points to ootn.
